Shell Game (Day 4)

[Hermit Crab]

Ayo wassup homies
Herr Mitt checking in

VOTE: firebagels

Nobody lies in a game of mafia so this bagel must be claiming truthfully.

[Hermit Crab]

I have now seen two expressed hatred for a cute hermit crab gif so that means war.

I am now declaring that I am locking morph as town and I am giving no reason why.

[Hermit Crab]

Oh yeah CSF is locktown too.
Because what kind of scum fakeclaim miller these days?

- Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

Fellow crustaceans [4/12]

Morph
CSF
Hidden 1
Hidden 2

This game may be easy after all.

- Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

You know I only remembered ActionDan voting someone, so I had to ISO for that grand total of 3 posts.

And he’s joining the crustaceans

The Crab head says they gut townread Brian too.

That makes [6/12].

- Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

Oh the site is not dying again.
I can actually read stuff now, preferably over a cup of morning coffee.

- Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

If it helps

Theres a like ..5..? Idk how to count! Person hood and we got info that suggests scums in the hood.

I think its sus of action to say "0 or 1 scum in the hood" since i dont get why ceph would give that info if there wasnt scum in the hood?
I think hes scum trying to push the assumption of no scum in hood so he can get whateber that buff is.

Can you elaborate on this info that suggests scums in the hood?

- Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

This head thinks Firebringer, marcistar, and Brian Skies are town so far.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

Those are some spicy takes.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

I’m throwing AD and PP into the town pot.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

We’d been operating under the assumption the whole game is in neighborhoods. This is an interesting development.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

Our neighborhood has a list of who is in them as well.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

Do dragons count as an animal?

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

Dunnstral feels town

Ohlivion's questions feel off

VOTE: oblivion

Dunn is tryharding and that worries me a little, so I'm on like the totally opposite page here.

Which posts in particular?
Because I feel like Dunn is doing the opposite.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

Yeah scumreading Marci for doing what she did is silly, when her claim increased chance of her-scum being eliminated to 20%.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

All I want to do at night is to sleep decently well.

- Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

I think this is sort of true for the CSF read too. The "permanent FOS" for the Miller claim is kind of devoid of actually trying critically think about the game and reads like slapping a label on a slot because they did something that seems objectively scummy

But what about me who called CSF town on sole basis of her claiming miller?

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

Sunflower remains to be seen when I can properly read what I’ve only skimmed but I’m sad no one followed me onto them, I was proud of my page six case

Spiffeh that’s what happens when you bring an unabridged book of Iliad to a preschool book club.

Ain’t nobody reading that hunk of text.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

I can’t really determine ActionDan’s thing until I know what that seeekrit stuff is, I think.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

The thing about Marci and AD for me is that I think if they were scum they would’ve taken a different angle in general.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

Firebringer is the towniest person in this game bar none.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

For those of us outside that hood, who instigated show and tell?

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

Let’s pump the brakes on claiming to large groups of people day one.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

If we could please not be softing any and every PR in a playerlist that would be fantastic.

Thanks.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

A playerlist of this caliber*

[Hermit Crab]

Let’s pump the brakes on claiming to large groups of people day one.

Chuck Rab

But Chuck, half of the playerlist claimed at least part of their roles so far!

- Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

A playerlist of this caliber*

I mean I think most of us can put together "five players similar roles" and get the obvious answer regardless. So the not morph cat is already out of the deathy bag.

Yeah, I get it.

We should probably kill in that hood.

[Hermit Crab]

pagetop

-Herr Mitt, with pride

[Hermit Crab]

Morph, a penny for your thoughts on Dunnstral?

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

The answer is always the first person who claims paranoid.

- Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

I refuse to believe that Pooky doesn't know exactly what is going on here with all of the clues. This is like "help dora the explorer figure out which train to ride" level of easy given everything itt already.

[Hermit Crab]

Marci stop talking for now please.

[Hermit Crab]

Okay we’re just outting it, fan fucking tastic

[Hermit Crab]

It's DETHY not DEATHY

- Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

Ideally I’d like more players to react to see who is and isn’t aware of what’s going on. This removes the opportunity.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

Okay we’re just outting it, fan fucking tastic

You do realize that the entire premise of a dethy is that there is a scum in there, so we are not "outing" anything to the scum team. They knew before anyone outside of the dethy knew.

Wow, it’s almost like that would be the metric I’m looking for!

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

Morph, I still have this penny waiting for you.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

They only gave me three others, double traitor be wack.

Interesting.

[Hermit Crab]

My guess is that if the Dethy isn't solved by the end of D2 then the entire Dethy hood gets eliminated.
It is a very spicy guess, I'm aware.

-Herr Mitt.

[Hermit Crab]

I think marci is Town

Welcome to page ten. We are now on page 30ish.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

Depends which head used it.

[Hermit Crab]

marci is the absolute last person I would kill in that hood.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

I think Klick is the scum in the dethy, personally.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

I think Klick is the scum in the dethy, personally.

Chuck Rab

This is a synchronized opinion.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

I think Klick is the scum in the dethy, personally.

Chuck Rab

elaborate?

It's not marci. CSF claimed miller which draws unnecessary attention as scum who would likely already know they are in a dethy. AD's reaction to CSF felt town. That leaves dragons and Klick, and they said dragons was who first instigated the discussion, which I lean more town on.

That leaves Klick.

Chuck you silly crustacean CSF is not in the hood.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

My bad.

That still leaves the two, of which I find myself more leaning Klick.

[Hermit Crab]

Are these contradictory opinions, or am I misinterpreting something?

The first quote is me memeing about eliminating paranoid cop first.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

What do we think about a certain ascetic claim in light of the dethy? I doubt any of those can clear an ascetic, no?

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

Who's the scum in our hood, Mickey?

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

No, it's named dethy.

[Hermit Crab]

Hermit do you have a read of us?

Herr lock towned you page 7.

Chuck is stubborn and is leaning moderately in the green direction.

[Hermit Crab]

Cakez is scum even when Cakez is town.

[Hermit Crab]

I’m saying this now so no one can steal it from me before I can get back to my computer and act like they thought of it first:

I’m not townreading Shello and Goodbye
Or Lukewarm
Or Pooky (this one’s not that special)

One might call them “the big three”

Sunflower remains to be seen when I can properly read what I’ve only skimmed but I’m sad no one followed me onto them, I was proud of my page six case

Mickey, what's the deal with this? Have any of these changed?

[Hermit Crab]

Mine.

[Hermit Crab]

I'm very curious as to what crab thinks about Sir skies

I had him as gut town originally, but has since fallen due to other people being more town.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

We're taking a step back in general because we reduced the scum pool to 6 names at one point excluding the dethy neighbors, and we decided that the list did not look right.
We are not willing to share that list at this time.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

I am voting dan for the CSF shade while being a supposed cop

Why is there a Miller in this game?

Why would scum claim miller, especially after the ascetic claim?

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

God damnit Herr get out of the lines of questioning.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

Don't tell them that it will go to their head.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

Morph has been incredibly Town these last several pages which comforts me

I mean I locked them as town way back in page 7.
You and maybe the others are just finally catching up.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

Maybe the true obtusebear was the dethy's we made along the way?

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

Suck it, morph and pooky.

[Hermit Crab]

How would I earn cred for his scum flip when I’m calling him Town? Lol

"Spiffeh is super wrong on this so he must be town"

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

Mine.

[Hermit Crab]

Talk to me about Klick, because I’m still unimpressed by that ISO.

[Hermit Crab]

It's okay Pooky, I'm sure they'd pick you up against everyone in the thread not named Brian Skies.

[Hermit Crab]

Yes, and it is synced.

Pedit-
Agreed. I am waiting to see what skitter does when she comes in.

[Hermit Crab]

Yeah, I could very easily kill the bear today.

[Hermit Crab]

Yeah, I could very easily kill the bear today.

I wouldn't.
Pooky townread is my secret spicy read.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

VOTE: Klick

[Hermit Crab]

Anyway, what metrics are being used to read Pooky?
Because I don't really see Pooky being scum here, at least for now.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

the fact everyones ignoring them makes me feel like im going crazy! lol

I don't know about others but I certainly do not have enough brain space to remember someone from 32 page ago.

This is nice and all, but why are Luke and CSF that low? Do you disagree with the thoughts morph has presented on the miller? Why are Spiffeh, STD, Bagel, and Brian that high?

[Hermit Crab]

I'm also interested in the Sunflower read while I'm making demands, thanks!

[Hermit Crab]

Can you elaborate more on the Firebagel/Oblivion reads?

[Hermit Crab]

i wanna explain things but some people don't like that for some reason zzzzzzzzz

Does this response seem off to you too, morph? Context was right around the whole dethy reveal.

[Hermit Crab]

NGL I (Neuter) was pretty pleased to be at the top of your middle until I realized it was probably because we were first in the player list order.

Is this slot the kind of player to be this bold and open with statements like this in general? This feels like something that it would generally townread a player for having the bravery to say.

Yes, that is on brand for that slot.

Yes, that is on brand for that slot.

Tell it more about your impression of that slot and how it approaches games, and if possible can you compare it to how you approach games by manner of contrast?

We approach games in a very similar manner, with them being much more comfortable in a leading spot than myself. Both of us tend towards a more process of elimination style of play, preferably more conversational. They also are more focused on reserving opinions until they have data, whereas I can tend to be a bit headstrong.

Does this suffice?

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

Oh boy. It has the sense it is going to struggle with the speed of this game. It will begin to read at this moment, from where it left off, but if users had questions for it sufficient it could engage with them and begin mental modelling it would strongly prefer live interaction to combing through 30 pages.

Word. I just spent like two hours reading to get caught up.

I have some concerns about the setup and how everyone is just accepting that a hood is set up a particular way, given that this game is literally called "shell game" and the mod clearly knows what that is.

Town post?

[Hermit Crab]

Sure, and I’m sure morph will tease me if I’m incorrect.

[Hermit Crab]

Sure, and I’m sure morph will tease me if I’m incorrect.

You are town and a player claims a guitly against you, how do you react?

I’m much more likely to leverage my towncred and try to strong arm them down (basically put it in a situation of who is townier)? I’d say morph also would try their best to survive, but would focus more on showing why the other person is scum. although both of us are very aware that a one for one trade is perfectly fine and would shrug.

[Hermit Crab]

Since Marci came out and just said it yeah...

A deathy is a five player neighborhood with the following details:

1 scum (tradition makes this a traitor but doesn't have to be)
4 town cops of unknown sanity (they don't know their own sanity, just the possibilities)

Now we go through the list of five people in that hood looking for possible traitor signals!

@oblivion

[Hermit Crab]

If you notice, the wiki page is explicitly lacking any extraneous letters.

[Hermit Crab]

And so it is confirmed that within that neighbourhood this is the setup that exists? Or this is speculation? Also, to which players does this refer?

Marcistar, Sunflower (look dad I learned), Klick, SaveTheDragobs, ActionDan.

[Hermit Crab]

If this is true and matches the link given exactly... it would assume the best play would to be look anywhere but within those 5 today. Two cops whose results can actually be interpreted for results, with time and flips and two that can't? Makes little sense to do scum's work for them.

So let that resolve as it goes and simply look elsewhere to kill today?

But if we kill the scum, we essentially have a four person masonry scum has to clear through.

[Hermit Crab]

Morph, you two have more experience with this than me. Thoughts?

[Hermit Crab]

That’s roughly my expectation.

[Hermit Crab]

In my defense, it’s hard to amass a conglomeration of thoughts into one question lest I turn into she of the inverted readslists.

Pedit:
That, it’s kinda hard to dilute all the raw information into short terms.

[Hermit Crab]

My kingdom for an entire Lukewarm written essay on our play.

I’ll throw in my kingdom as well.

[Hermit Crab]

She should sell me on that, I’m willing to hear her out.

[Hermit Crab]

Mune?

[Hermit Crab]

For what it’s worth, we feel similarly about Luke and marci. Essentially, Marci’s behavior around the outing of the dethy is probably the most important thing you need to read.

[Hermit Crab]

By we I mean me, herr agrees on marci and I need to follow up on Luke but I believe herr does.

[Hermit Crab]

Anyways I’m fucking off to lurk while y’all dance, later.

[Hermit Crab]

By we I mean me, herr agrees on marci and I need to follow up on Luke but I believe herr does.

You can slap that W on there.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

YALL I FINALLY REALIZED WHAT MY HOODMATES WERE SAYING

THATS SO SLAY.

I think theres exactly 1 scum in my hood.

Do you have a good reason to believe there is 1 and not 0?

Because if you do, I believe it is correct to eliminate inside of your neighborhood

But if you don't, that's not necessarily correct (my vote on Sunflower being unrelated to the hood, really)

Oh! We have a theory all of us are the same role and scums trying to blend in!

Is where it starts.

[Hermit Crab]

Shello can you elaborate on the Gypyx townread?

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

We've wondered where the Jupiter head of Sunflower is. Would like to see some of his posts soonish.

We’ve wondered the same thing, not gonna lie.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

Controversial opinion: I don’t think the mouse is as scummy as everyone else is saying, and most of the reads there seem based off of pre flip associatives.

I reserve the right to say this was a joke if he’s actually scum.

Chuck Rab

[Hermit Crab]

The one that irked me the most was sunflower, although that is susceptible of the bias from being in my dethy PoE.

[Hermit Crab]

Also not fantastic, also very easily worth a vote. But I will say I am very enticed by the concept of a four man masonry.

[Hermit Crab]

So, other than Brian, who else do you think needs more scrutiny? Obviously we are missing a third of our own neighborhood at this point, so that goes without saying.

[Hermit Crab]

So you’re telling us that the mod created 5 players neighborhood with all town with some sort of role with questionable sanity, declared that if the mafia still exists in the neighborhood at a predetermined point mafia will get an advantage, and expect town to not believe it and move on? Especially after throwing in the urgency of time?

Naw

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

also you shall remain skitterless for now

skitterless sounds like an insult 14 year olds would throw at each other

Whose scum, gypyx?

Also this is ours.

[Hermit Crab]

Bold call. Sell me?

[Hermit Crab]

Can you point me to where your Spiffeh read is?

[Hermit Crab]

Is your scumread on AD contigent in the unflipped associatives? I’m curious which case in specific you are sheeping.

Who are your top three townreads and why?

[Hermit Crab]

Whose case? I think I must have missed that one. How much have you read that your only townread is ydra?

[Hermit Crab]

Can you show me the AD case you’re referring to?

[Hermit Crab]

I think it’s a playstyle clash, marci. (Between you and oblivion).

[Hermit Crab]

I think it look like it is generally trying to solve the game, and I like the back off of you that you explicitly quoted. I also think scum wouldn’t be as abrasive as it is, especially against a UTR.

I have to imagine scum would give each other a rundown of the playerlist, and I also don’t think it behooves scum to be as openly antagonistic as it is.

[Hermit Crab]

Like, it literally said “I can’t kill her for being annoying because she’s town”

What scum explicitly says that shit?

Pedit-
Hey, Bingle. You town?

[Hermit Crab]

Haven’t decided yet. Sell me on it.

What does the town have to offer me to side with them? The scumteam sent me a neat fruit basket with gold ribbons.

I can offer to help you finish that fruit basket. It sounds like it has way too many fruits for one to handle.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

Hey, Bingle. You town?

Bingle is town.

Well, PP said it so it must be true.

Who else is town?

[Hermit Crab]

Who is scum that isn’t Klick?

[Hermit Crab]

Why? I think he’s pretty town so far.

[Hermit Crab]

What am I missing on Pooky and Firebringer?

[Hermit Crab]

I’m wondering if our hood has like two scum out of six or something for that shell game? I’ve been trying to mull over what I think the game could be for ours but it’s also kinda dead in our hood so meh

[Hermit Crab]

Maybe there’s a mechanic where we play two separate games all at once to get a vanilla cop.

[Hermit Crab]

Wait, where was this warning from Ceph?

[Hermit Crab]

Drivers?

[Hermit Crab]

Yoink

[Hermit Crab]

Maybe there’s a mechanic where we play two separate games all at once to get a vanilla cop.

heh.

Have you talked about your reads of your hoodmates? Are you thinking about the game in those terms? possible scum in Marci's hood, your hood, and the leftovers?

Tangentially I think the one post of Brian's that I've actually liked was 1223.

I feel like you know the answer to that question, but given we have some of our hood who have yet to post ANYWHERE it’s a bit tricky to accurately forecast our reads. All I hve is the solace that PP promised me Bingle is town.

[Hermit Crab]

I have decided that I do not believe what I do not see, regardless of what the other people in the hood says.

VOTE: STD

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

On one hand I feel like I need to reread this game to get a solid scum read of my own, and on the other hand I want to just wait for morph to do all the work for me and break out their super duper color coded entire player list read list

But either way, I don't currently know where I want my vote to be, and it feels stale where it is.

You that confident morph is town?

[Hermit Crab]

Yoink

[Hermit Crab]

The whole cred trade push thing was weird from literally anyone townreading AD lol

I'm giving you a pensive gaze because you didn't reply to my question when you came back to the thread.

What question?
If it’s about the confidence, I believe that’s towards the other crab.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

Keep it in your quiver, I was putting out fires at home.

We both think you’re town, but I have been burned too many times to be fully open at the moment. It’s not my fault your bar is so high!

[Hermit Crab]

Where’s Brian, I wanna talk to him.

[Hermit Crab]

Dan, Oblivion, maybe Dann, maybe Penguin, maybe STD

I'm probably not the best person to sheep as I don't feel particularly strongly about any of the above.

Brian sell me with what you have on this please?

[Hermit Crab]

Keep it in your quiver, I was putting out fires at home.

We both think you’re town, but I have been burned too many times to be fully open at the moment. It’s not my fault your bar is so high!

I felt the slightest rift forming. Of course I took notice.

My other head is keeping me honest. I need to compare your list with ours at some point.

[Hermit Crab]

(Also my issue was more Luke’s willingness to blind sheep (I understand this was retconned I’m saying the info I had at the time) when that’s my thing)

[Hermit Crab]

I’m admittedly back and forth in him, I find myself tending towards the town side of the metronome though? But I understand I am not the end all be all read of the mouse, I just had a lot of concern with the primary push on him seeming to stem from preflip associatives with who I thought was a fairly widely held townread?

[Hermit Crab]

I would say people in concerned with include (Klick/Sunflower), Gypyx, Brian, someone in our hood, Penguin? But this is somewhat off the cuff.

Pedit-
Hey dad, what are your thoughts on this collection of people

[Hermit Crab]

Suck it

[Hermit Crab]

Both of you need to knock it off.

I want both of you to come back with a list of top three townreads and top three scumreads and justify, and actually have a conversation and try to understand each other. I think you’re both town, and this is a distraction from rooting out the actual scum. So let’s find some common ground and go from there.

[Hermit Crab]

Stop perpetuating it. This is actively antitown and furthers a scum wincon by facilitating rifts between the town.

[Hermit Crab]

If you have to view it as talking with me, fine. I don’t mind mediating, but we need to be on the same page here.

[Hermit Crab]

I said look at the dethy thing! Damn cat always stealing my thunder

[Hermit Crab]

Question for both of you- let’s assume you’re both town and have been interacting like you have all game. What do you think scum would do around that?

[Hermit Crab]

Dude what part of PenguinPower said Bingle is town does this game not understand

[Hermit Crab]

I have no bearing on their history, they are some of the few I have limited experience with.

[Hermit Crab]

Okay, is there anyone you guys think fits that bill?

[Hermit Crab]

yeah sure

Demonstrate an open mind even once with it and it will engage with you again.

Continue to write in posts like the above which show zero attempt to engage with it in good faith or even attempt to consider its alignment, it will ignore you. Your post was aggressive, condescending and needlessly cruel/mean. Why would it bother?

It's pretty simple math, frankly. Why would it waste its time or breath on a slot that has zero desire to see it as anything but scum... or frankly treat it as an equal? Like, from minute one you've had a problem with it, and it doesn't know what that problem is but it would really like it if you'd take the chip you carry on your shoulder and put it away.

This is its literal last plea to you, it's not going to re-engage again if you're not going to at least meet it half way.

From my point of view you are the slot that is being aggressive and demeaning towards other players and it makes me not want to attempt to engage with you.

Then don't. It is genuinely trying to be even keeled and respectful at every turn, but this is the second time you've popped in just to try and do this. If you so badly want not to engage with it, then why are you wasting your pop ins on saying things like this that feel exclusively like bait?

Dunn typically doesn't get super involved in these from my recollection. I would take it as constructive criticism, albeit hard to hear especially in the heat of the game. It's something I, along with other players who have been playing a while, struggle with too and you are by no means alone in it. Just focus on moving forward and proving Dunn wrong.

[Hermit Crab]

The best thing to do is prove him wrong. All we want to do is have a fun game with each other, and let's just focus on doing that and keeping our egos in check.

[Hermit Crab]

The best thing to do is prove him wrong. All we want to do is have a fun game with each other, and let's just focus on doing that and keeping our egos in check.

So what, it has to rise above and "prove him wrong" and he gets to say that and be fine?

This perpetual arms race is part of the issue. I know it's frustrating to be told to shrug it off, but this will make it harder for you to focus on the real point of the game.

[Hermit Crab]

Bingle can you tell me who in our hood is scum?

[Hermit Crab]

Marci, half of this game plays pretty heavily on PoE. It's perfectly viable to play the game by finding all the town. Focus on what you're confident in. If that's finding town, then let me see six townreads.

[Hermit Crab]

Bingle can you tell me who in our hood is scum?

Is cabd in our hood, because I am legit scumreading him. And to a lesser extent ffery.

No, but I am open to hearing what you're thinking?

[Hermit Crab]

Cabd’s posting feels like he’s trying to be sudsing things but not actually being sudsing things.

Do you have specific examples?

[Hermit Crab]

Has Oblivion's recent posting done anything to shift that read? What do you think of Oblivion's interactions with myself and morph?

Why do you find Klick towny? I don't think I have seen you comment much on Klick, aside from questioning Spiffeh calling one of Klick's post townie?

[Hermit Crab]

The interaction with me began around 990, with the morph interaction beginning around 1026. I also like the read retraction on marci in the sequence of posts beginning in 1059 also felt town to me.

[Hermit Crab]

Skitter what don’t you like about the marci-hood thing?

[Hermit Crab]

Yoink

Skitter I think oblivion actually does a decent job explaining marci on page 66. FMPOV, which she has maintained until now, marci saw that she has cop shots, got really excited about the role, and couldn’t keep it under wraps. While not necessarily town (she could be a traitor) it is hard to see scum marci sharing that information in that manner? Especially given her track record of being bad at hiding her good roles alongside her still insisting the role was powerful within the past ten pages, I think her actions make perfect sense from town.

[Hermit Crab]

I’m also curious if you could unpack your other townreads, namely how on earth Pooky is your strongest townread.

[Hermit Crab]

@skitter, both posts you quoted appear to be Cabd.

[Hermit Crab]

I have decided that I do not believe what I do not see, regardless of what the other people in the hood says.

VOTE: STD

-Herr Mitt

Why me over someone like sircakez or bingle? Because you want to solve the hood or?

Not doing anything at all vs doing something super towny in the hood but not doing so here

-Herr Mitt

Why does that matter

Because the latter suggests the possibility of targeted appealing, and that is scummy.

-Herr Mott

[Hermit Crab]

what if i just naturally discovered the dethy thing slowly in the hood and people in there are tring me for that

I didn’t get to see the whole thing with my own crabby eyes, so as far as I’m concerned, that doesn’t exist.

You mentioned you would happily vote anyone you’re not townreading, and you don’t want to eliminate inside the hood today. Is it purely for mechanical reason? Also, how is your town list looking like at the moment?

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

Yeah, I’m not really sure where people townreading gypyx are getting it other than Fferys (?) townslip angle

You did read my post!

I did but I had to focus on breaking up marci and oblivion. I plan to do some in depth work at some point once I’m finished with my homework in the final week of class (read: maybe tonight depending how efficient I am)

[Hermit Crab]

i like danns posting about bagel rn, i was taking to skitter earlier today about the wagons and ended up at maybe just lhf that isn’t as engaged

-ydra

We have to pay the blood sacrifice of one low post count player

[Hermit Crab]

Not as solid as Penguins case on Bingle.

[Hermit Crab]

I do want them to townread me

Am I misguided for townreading this

[Hermit Crab]

Don’t worry folks, I will lead us to defeat

[Hermit Crab]

I just really want my Pooky foam finger

[Hermit Crab]

I think we should kill gypyx because she feels way different here than she did in touhou to an almost insane amount. She was reckless and didn’t give a single solitary fuck there but here she’s just reisen

[Hermit Crab]

@spay, what do you think the odds of a ssbm trend tracker would bear fruit

[Hermit Crab]

Also now i think i know one head of the crab hydra so that helps

~ skitter

Pedit are those words supposed to be understandable by the masses?

Yeah it’s pretty clearly been notsci since the whole dethy situation

[Hermit Crab]

What skitter said is accurate luke

[Hermit Crab]

SirCakez feels town whicg actually makes me want to kill fire but it’s for kinda weak Shit reasons

[Hermit Crab]

EVERYBODY TALKING ABOUT TENET BETTER BE SIGNING UP FOR SCREAM WHEN I FINISH IT VERY SOON

No fuck tenet that game doesn’t exist except in my nightmares

[Hermit Crab]

SirCakez feels town whicg actually makes me want to kill fire but it’s for kinda weak Shit reasons

Bruh what is this even based on????

Also I’m the most widely townread person in our hood, catch up cakeboy

I will get there but I am not trusting town reads on cabal people this early

That’s fine cakeboy, you don’t have to townread me to get in my bird backpack

To be honest, it’s literally just stupid tone read because I’ve been waiting for anything from him as a meter stick to see where others in the hood stand

Pedit
Pooky I already said I’m notsci are you readin

[Hermit Crab]

Wait that’s a good question bc that’s before he popped in

Ninja
Like two or three pages ago

[Hermit Crab]

Holy shit Pooky I love you

[Hermit Crab]

XENO 2 IS COMING FOR YOU AGAIN CAKEBOYYYY

[Hermit Crab]

BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GODS

[Hermit Crab]

God I want to nuke him with fire right now, because that’s most likely a recent development in the scum thread which I would then say clears morph bc it’s been known for a while

[Hermit Crab]

Luke we have a new slip keep up

[Hermit Crab]

Also Pooky is definitely town, right?

[Hermit Crab]

Also now i think i know one head of the crab hydra so that helps

Yeah it’s pretty clearly been notsci since the whole dethy situation

Brotha what happened to this whole “anon” hydra thing??
Shaking my crustacean head real hard right now.

Anyway, this means that I am most likely right about Pooky and it brings me joy.

-Herr Mitt

[Hermit Crab]

Yeah I didn't glean the meaning of that post saying it was notsci either

I'm only vaguely aware of the existence of notsci though so that's kinda to be expected

it was a signal specifically to notsci.

To add context, us signaling like this isn’t new

[Hermit Crab]

Cakez how do you feel about our lord and savior Baja blast?

[Hermit Crab]

In my defense I didn’t remember how to play mafia until day 2

[Hermit Crab]

I was solicited for this and actually did want to include you but you had already joined

[Hermit Crab]

Also if Cakez is scum Dunn is also cleared because he could clearly tell for a while too

[Hermit Crab]

Has Dunn signaled that to you?

There was something he said that seemed like he knew, standby

[Hermit Crab]

Maria is in this game?

yeah she is one of the heads to the anon hydra

This is not true

I assume it’s not a slam dunk as I remember

[Hermit Crab]

Yes three years from now when you decide to play another game we will hydra

[Hermit Crab]

Anyways, I’m seeing if Herr wants to sync up tonight once I’m done homework so we can compare points

[Hermit Crab]

You’d also think cakeboy would at least try to read the hood which has way less volume than the game thread and people to sort

Hm.

[Hermit Crab]

It’s relatively boring, my point was more it’s easier to stick your toes into as someone coming in late.

[Hermit Crab]

How many times do I have to say it?
