In November 1971, NASA’s Mariner 9 probe successfully reached Mars. To celebrate, NASA invited several science fiction writers to the Jet Propulsion Lab. Ray Bradbury was among them, and read aloud his ode to human space exploration. Day 2 is dedicated to this lyrical ode along with some of Brabury’s other poetry.
IF ONLY WE HAD TALLER BEEN The fence we walked between the years Did balance us serene It was a place half in the sky where In the green of leaf and promising of peach We’d reach our hands to touch and almost touch the sky If we could reach and touch, we said, ’Twould teach us, not to, never to, be dead
Judge Mental: 1 (GTacc)
Not Voting: 7 (northsidegal, ellibereth, Metal Sonic, Riley Cake, pyx, Judge Mental, Smilodon)
Now, I’m not discounting the possibility that given tn’s undervaluing of their mafia prowess the scum team may have hatched a buss plan, but I’d rather we sort between Riley, Metal, and GTacc today.
I have no idea on GTacc other than to ask anyone and everyone else where they think a town GTacc can come up with nsg as jailkeep, with me as scum and specifically me as blocked to stop a kill. Or, another way to look at it, are they known to try to out a special early in the game?
i’m not actually all that concerned with sorting redflavor because i think i have a pretyt specific and reliable tell that will just sort itself out as the day goes on.
so basically right now i’m at scum in:
Riley Cake
pyx
Judge Mental
Smilodon
has riley quickhammered before as either alignment? on the one hand it’s suboptimal to not let your scumbuddy claim before getting lynched, on the other hand ellibereth was probably always the kill anyways and i can definitely see scum!tn saying to riley in daychat to just hammer him for the towncred
I know it was a scum tn who lazily threw all the new guys into their “scum” pile, but I can’t shake the feeling that town is falling into the same thinking. Basically, smilodon has hardly posted and this is both very unusual and NAI. I get that they might sit in a scum pile until they contribute more. Pyx has been towny from my POV. I don’t get why Pyx has put a burden on smilodon to ‘clear’ them but here we are
@Ellibereth have you found another excuse reason to not share why you hard claimed yesterday first thing?
well, my thought process is basically that ellibereth and metal sonic are definitely town and i’m not really concerned with sorting redflavor because i think his alignment becomes apparent just as the day goes on, so i’m left with those four.
my list there is just an ordered list within those four.
I appreciate this sentiment but I still need prefer locktown people to stir the pot and do shit (even incorrectly!) with the non locktown people otherwise I have to end up being that person. Don’t be lazy!
Was I though?
Let’s take a poll everyone - if you were tn’s scumbuddy would you have killed me.
put your answer in spoiler tags.
