He has said before that microwaved eggs are worse than rotten eggs 😔

I don’t think I ever said this

Members don't see this ad.

 

[Zenge142]

I thought she was referring to pocketing true and fluff

That was my interpretation as well.

But my intent wasn’t to “pocket”. Believe me, my pockets have better advertising campaigns than that.

 

[Zenge142]

I was going to go for a salt yeet but after reading I have a better one:

Yeet Zenge

Truey pls

 

[WildZoo]

I know 😡

 

[WildZoo]

I don’t think I ever said this

You're right, it was raw egg, not rotten. Forgive my spotty memory.

 

[Truenamer]

Truey pls

Don't worry, I'm still in the lead

 

[Zenge142]

Don't worry, I'm still in the lead

Pretty sure we’re tied, no?

Also Dubz’s salt vote doesn’t count because it’s not real.

Both Zuri and your votes seem to be real. So technically I’m in the lead.

Numbers is villains

I don’t think I have ever said this either

 

[WildZoo]

I don’t think I have ever said this either

Well it wasn't about eating them, it was about having raw egg vs microwave egg on your face

 

[WildZoo]

Also Dubz’s salt vote doesn’t count because it’s not real.

How dare you

 

[WildZoo]

@Truenamer answer my "Oh?" pls

Ah, missed Zuri's vote.

Eggcellent, pressure works better when there's real pressure.

Zenge's early posts are making my nose tickle and I want to see how he responds to votes on him.

Is “nose tickling” something that frequently happens when you’re suspicious of something?

Just trying to imagine Sherlock Holmes getting constant nose tickles…WAIT! OMG! Is that why he was always doing coke!? To numb the nose tickles?! It all makes sense!

Any specific posts in particular?

Any specific posts in particular?

There's no one big red flag, just some combination of this stuff:

Spoiler: Zangoose quoots

@WildZoo you think Sporty will yeet you or me first?

Thank you. ❤️

(Swear to god you’d better not be trying to pocket me)

Why Fluff?

Why True?

Why are y’all yeeting my good eggs? 🥺

I do that.

I mean, we're on page 3 of the thread. Not much to elaborate on. You feel a lil different and I was curious how you'd react to a vote.

Not once you've pointed out you were examining the reaction. It's no longer pure.

 

[Truenamer]

Impure doesn't mean un-valuable

Also I need a little time to form a clear opinion, and writing it down prematurely might affect my thought process.

Impure doesn't mean un-valuable

It does in gems! And metals!

 

[Zenge142]

Actually I’m not sure this is true. Isn’t always presumed everyone is examining everything you do, regardless of votes on you.

To suggest you’re examining someone in WW with or without a vote on them is essentially the same as saying you’re looking to catch a wolf, or planning to vote at some point.

Everyone is bringing scrutinized for everything all the time. That’s the nature of the game.

You don't think someone's initial reaction to something would be more pure than their later reaction after more context has been given?

If I had said "I'm looking to see how Zenge reacts" when I voted for you last game, you don't think you would have reacted differently?

I mean yes they know they're being scrutinized, but I think saying specifically that you're voting for a reaction changes the interaction going forward.

 

[Crayola227]

*eye twitch*

I get you responded right after saying you read the rules but this also made me eye twitch because it said in the sign ups that this was vanilla

Salt from being N1’d.

The eggs? The anniversary game when he was a skeleton overlord.

This presumes I remembered anything from the sign up thread 😅

 

[Zenge142]

I guess I see your point but it’s apples and oranges in terms of the situation. Early D1 vs. EOD D2.

But in that case, you weren't just looking for Zenge's reaction, you were trying to get a wolf to clumsily agree with you and jump onto a Zenge-yeet.

I don't think either of these specifics are really relevant - I was just giving an example. It's not about the rest of the context. It's that, if you're looking to gauge a reaction, saying "I am looking to gauge a reaction" inherently changes that reaction. That's just science.

Sure, but Zenge is smart; it's not like he doesn't know that an early vote on D1 is either a joke or to see a reaction or both.

I mean, if that's the case and you think he's always going to think about it as a reaction test before reacting, then what value does that type of vote have? If you don't think he might consider too that there actually is some other reason for the vote since he had been posting, and react based on that assumption, then it's less useful, no?

It's not quite the same as a vote that occurs before someone posts. Those of course can't be based on anything else.

I'm not saying it's completely useless, just that the initial reaction is going to be the most valuable. I'm not even sure why that's up for debate tbh. There's a reason why people don't say "iT wAs a ReAcTiOn tEsT" until after the fact.

Noted.

 

[Crayola227]

Aren’t all posts on a day 1 just grasping at straws? Like I’m not saying my argument is bulletproof. Just a literal first instinct on reading a thread. Would love an explanation from @samac or anyone how making an admittedly impulse read on a post is more opportunistic than just posting *eye twitch* somewhere. And also a definition of *eye twitches* if that’s not too much to ask

Like this post. Not sure how I want to lean it, town vs scum, but I like the contribution and sass. I wouldn't expect this level of confidence from noob scum, but perhaps we're just dealing with an exceptional noob.

Shuddering at the thought of microwaved rotten eggs. Got to be an impressive yucky plume

Sure. You can grasp at straws.
I can also grasp at straws. My straw was your post made my eye twitch.
Zenge’s gif defined it pretty well.

*coughPocketcough*

Only cause I was sending you food pics

Getting bad vibes from Samac's posts.

What else is new this game, lol

 

[Crayola227]

I thought itt they made comments like "what is pocketing" or "explain the eye twitch" that seemed nooby, and I don't recognize the username as one I've played with before
