Random’s McSteak joke is pretty good ngl
Monkey’s and Ambulance’s feel kind of forced. not their best work.
Zipped’s tooth pic joke is pretty solid, the camel one felt kind of lazy

OK so here's how the spec participation is going to work. For D/N1 you all are going to nominate what you think are the best jokes. You can just copy paste with including the player name or quote the post for the nomination. Anyone who agrees that it's a good joke should react to it. At the end of the day I will take the jokes with the most reactions (ideally 4ish but just depends where the number cut off it) and make a poll of them.
The winner of the poll will receive a small prize but I won't announce what that is until the poll is closed.

Not going to be talking about the jokes outside the vote ones, but Random wrapping the McDonalds steak around to a sloppy steak joke which is referencing a sketch show that Neuvo really likes is a good touch. That has some god damn layers.
I have no idea what nat was doing with his first joke. That's pretty bad.
EC's is functional. Solid 2.5/5

Do they have to be from a vote post
They do not, they can be from a non joke post.
I am slightly worried about the pace of the jokes so far, if this is the A stuff they start the game with what are they going to have left at the end?

okay Launch's made me audibly groan. I think that's the highest praise i can give a joke if we're going by the dad joke metric
Another thing to mention is that you are not restricted to just one nomination or reaction.

Nuevo's peanut butter joke is pretty good. Pancakes response was pretty good too. Feel like Pancake is going to be a solid contender for this joke contest

that termite joke is pretty good yeah

Yeah, I'm town
I get that it's supposed to be in a pancake topping context, but that punchline belongs exclusively with the "Why have you got a steering wheel down your trousers?" feedline. I mean, c'mon.CaptainNuevo said:
There you go, that's the one. (Although I've always had it pegged as the butter joke - still works, though.)Conditional-Pancakes said:

Launch is scum.
also i got an email from OM saying i should…i dunno, i don’t read spam, that i should post in this thread maybe. That’s funny. Is it only because i have access to it, or does OM also mail people scum thread titles?

Yeah that prime mates one is good lol. Pancakes is killing it.
Nat’s joke when he was voting for Anex was not good.
Also can confirm, Nat does have a very bad habit of wandering into a zombie horde by himself

I'll explain my reasons later
Favourite jokes so far:
Natiko's anexcellent pun
Zipped's "I guess the joke will be on me" post
Pancakes: How many mystery writers does it take to change a light bulb? Two. One to change the bulb, and the other to give it an unexpected twist at the end.
Random: I tried to bait him into posting sloppysteaks.gif but he didn't bite. I guess I'm just an amateur baiter, I need to work harder if I want to become a master
Donnie: Okay now we're cooking. I'd like to add one more funny bone joke to the pot but they might become laughing stock
Negative points to Captain Nuevo for this crack: "preferring lies of omission and being very careful with wording. Like a politician/lawyer? :rimshot:"

Hmmm it still looks like a scum monkey.
Random won the best joke contest with his joke: "I tried to bait him into posting sloppysteaks.gif but he didn't bite. I guess I'm just an amateur baiter, I need to work harder if I want to become a master."
For Day 2 you are going to be nominating and voting the worst joke of the day.

Its open mic all the time in spec chat.
Congrats on being a N1 kill in just your second game!

Yeah, I'll say I was looking at Natiko and Launch equally off the back of the initial EC train but it didn't check out to me that Nat claimed it was a pressure vote to get an answer, didn't seem to accept the eventual answer but then listed him as a likely town flip at day end lol combined with LP handwaving the EC talk it felt like distancing. Launch came out of that more naturally and was putting in good effort in the second half of day one so Nat seems like a good bet right now.
Donnie

Haha hmm Waunch is very competitive, I wouldn't put anything by him . Gut feel is no, but we will have to see. There is a team of them after all
Sawneeks

by worst joke do you mean bad and unfunny or 'this made me groan and roll my eyes' bad?
I read like the first 2 pages of the game then skipped to the end and I believe launch is scum
Both, whatever criteria you want to use.

I did!
Dad Joke Mafia |OT| I quit mafia to be a housekeeper, now I'm a maid man.
Right now I feel good about: CappaCrookN EC I wanna say VA so I'm going to, but I'll say there's no reason for it, I just do Pancakes is not town telling in any measurable way; this is a vibe, but she's here Launch and Rando are really interesting here. They are engaged. I have thoughts. But...
www.resetera.com
This was my early game feels, then I refined some of those thoughts as I got closer to voting, the main change being that I thought Launch came off better once he got off the EC stuff and into the rest of the day's discussion but I noted in my other two *big* posts that I still thought the movement on EC was going to be important.

Definitely side eyeing Nat and Rando right now. The way Random pushed towards Zipped at the last minute on EoD with the result in hindsight, theb straight back to him, I'm just struggling to get behind Random's logic that Zipped is an obvious next target post LP and his proposal of Zipped flip vs Bojack feels a little like a trap for both. The fact Nat stepped in to validate him (and by proxy himself) on the EC stuff , hmm. A little wifomy but Ra's town core reaction would incidentally line up with the type of take LP was trying to validate as town looking in his mid d1 post. Just not getting a town vibe from Ra either generally, his points seem to stretch past my natural inclinations anyway.
Maybe this is just both of them being on my non town early reads looking for confirmation but I would probably be looking at both right now. Could potentially soft town Zipped and Bojack there but put nothing past scum after Nightless lol also no idea how many of them there are in this game.

Who are you scum leaning on, Launch/Monkey?
HPSauce

I always scum read Launch lol. He's probably town here though.
I don't know what to make of Monkey here. I'll always advocate voting her because she's just too dangerous to leave alive unless she's definitely cleared.
Donnie
Mafia, pocketed, or dead N1
Haha okay. What I'll say on Monkey is she's very carefully made sure that whether she turns up town or scum it won't invalidate her thoughts and push on looking for townies/town core, and coming off Nightless I couldn't help but get behind that. Head wise I was trying to stay at neutral on her but my heart definitely was saying even with the careful positioning of the proposal that she wouldn't want to leave this game as scum undermining the idea. It feels like something bigger than the specific game to her and I don't think she would want to shade that. Ofc I lack experience with her playstyle lol that might be the perfect response for her.

You absolutely love to see it lol

Last in a row post lol. I’m gonna bounce for a while because I want to back read but also see what others say. Launch, tell me what you think of these.
www.resetera.com
This first paragraph is the exact logic I used to pick LP over Zipped but not at all the reasoning she gave lol and she's trying to push things fast. If she's scum you called it before me lol
Haha no it's too soon! That show is v good btw
