Silent Star 3: Royalty

[Ydrasse]

if there's only two slots left and we have trq/gloria to take them

do you think that the conspirators are frustrated that they are unable to get rid of players without having them voted out in this setup?

i mean, i think it's probably frustrating to like... potentially end up in a scenario where if you don't dance you're potentially forced to nk one of your own?

i might be interpreting how the pool of 3 remaining are but if we end up with TSS and the T gets elimmed they're confirmed so there's that? but i mean otherwise i think yeah, it's probably frustrating to do this on top of the fact they had to maneuver an auto-lose situation that almost necessitates all of your anti-town faction voting together (unless the town is unable to find each other)

[Ydrasse]

I'm loving how many people are like "I should dance and get a pt!"

and I've just been here like "yeah there's better people than me for that. I'd nominate Gloria and Infinity over me"

Sceanrio 2 is the most likely, assume I'd refused to vote at that point. It wouldn't have changed anything.

i think 1 is more likely than 2

Ydrasse was saying she was going to hammer. Had I not, it would've been all scum wagon.

Let's remove my vote and swap in ydrasse.

[7] Hopkirk:

Isis, skitter30, Dunnstral, Gypyx, Morning Tweet, PookyTheMagicalBear, Ydrasse

HAMMER

[4] Gypyx:

Gloria Cleary, Hopkirk, team rocket queen, Infinity 324

In this case then situation 1 is most likely to me and feel 3 is impossible.

i had asked if i needed to hammer (because gonna be real, i forgot about plurality + would rather get an elim through than not) while very much protesting the elim that i would have to hammer given that i thought hopkirk was town? and had throughout the day?

[Ydrasse]

also you keep saying i was lurking and like, yeah i guess, i don’t have much else to say other than i was demotivated as town because i couldn’t get into this game as much and that happens sometimes? it’s not the first time i haven’t posted much as town

[Ydrasse]

Assume scum split themselves (most likely):
Pooky + Ydrasse.

Why isn't it Pooky+Jessie? You said you don't think her approach to the game seems townie to you all day 1 and 2, and to me this phase has been more of the same from Jessie while Ydrasse's play is a marked improvement.

I really think me and jessie are literally just a play style clash. Ydrasse has done nothing but lurk.

Given the 4 stumped players were lurkers...

After that first elimination, with 6 scum against 5 town, there was no pressure for them. Ydrasse made a whole lot of promises and didn't come back in phase 2, same as gypyx was doing.

Now the pressures on.

Now she's here.

m
it’s frustrating the flea is saying stuff like this while also saying that fae didn’t want to go after lurkers/lhf honestly. also it’s a weird way to lead into me being scum by saying other people were lurking i guess, like setting up a precedent for it or Whatever (i’m too tired to try and verbalize this better especially from mobile)

[Ydrasse]

Bearing in mind me and jessie thrashed out a plurality discussion...

and i’m a lurker, yeah? wasn’t around a whole lot.

[Ydrasse]

like you quoting that makes it clear that i was unsure if a wagon would go through? lmao

[Ydrasse]

in a situation where i am unsure if a wagon will go through without my vote, i will almost always vote on the wagon regardless so we can have an elim

[Ydrasse]

like cool sorry town if i get elimmed for not being active until there was a more engaging mechanic for me (and i think it’s sleazy as fuck to push me on this standard given that a ton of people were disengaged regardless of alignment for a while) but i can’t change it and i’m not gonna set myself up for failure by pointing out that hey if i don’t do shit you should worry about me later and then fail to do much for 2 days in game

[Ydrasse]

like you quoting that makes it clear that i was unsure if a wagon would go through? lmao

Something called "Theatre!" I believe.

???????

not what theatre is but o k

[Ydrasse]

i think that i’m actually fine with being kept out of the dance pairs so long as flea is too

[Ydrasse]

my paranoia earlier in the game was right LMFAO

[Ydrasse]

actually in general i think having more “bad vibes” towards people this game makes sense given that it’s like voting conspiracy or no conspiracy

[Ydrasse]

i think that i’m actually fine with being kept out of the dance pairs so long as flea is too

I've already said I'm not dancing. you made a point of going LAMIST at me for it.

This is a pointless post.

nah it’s not

[Ydrasse]

hmmmmm

i think you’re saying some words here that go against what you’re actually doing

[Ydrasse]

mental boom earlier today so i’ll post maybe more later tonight or tmrw but @isis id like to dance with you for fun but realistically i’m unsure right now because i feel like i’m miring through people trying to find a tr to trust beyond jessie and gloria

[Ydrasse]

It's ok Ydrasse. I love tryhards. I don't know why I'm UTR some games and not others but it's pretty clear this isn't one

probably just for the fact that you pushed town in a situation where like, again all the conspirators are basically forced to coalesce or something for me. feels weird man

idk i keep saying i’ll reread you and skitter though bc that’s where my weird vibes were for you two a lot but energy levels minimal

[Ydrasse]

if you’re gonna let flea ate and wear you down into thinking that + suspect me because of some weird isis hard tr i don’t have much help for you

like i said, mental boom + low effort

keep flea out of the dance pairs and i’m fine not pairing ig

[Ydrasse]

i’m not accepting isis unless you and trq want me to

[Ydrasse]

like idk how to explain i’m not the optimal deepwolf in comparison to other people bc i went bare minimum on it and that is a liability for a deepwolf

[Ydrasse]

what do those words even mean

[Ydrasse]

words

ydrasse why does everyone (yourself included) keep saying 'deepwolf' as though the conspirators didn't just select the people who weren't more or less outed

i’m just using the vocab of the thread since that’s what people decided to call them

[Ydrasse]

4 options wrt isis pushing this

1) isis is scum trying to paranoia everyone out on getting town!ydrasse into a dance pair
1b) isis is scum knowing that ydrasse is not trying too hard this game and wants that disengagement in a theoretical final 5/3/etc
2) isis is scum trying to push scum!ydrasse into a pair knowing that's the better odds
3) isis is town and has a correct townread on town!ydrasse
4) isis is town and pushing an incorrect townread on scum!ydrasse

im unsure which is correct and it weirds me out and im worried that like, isis knows i like dancing w her and is trying to get me to dance w her after everyone gets too weirded out by her push or something. her identifying me as town is like... i feel she's played enough with me to have read accuracy so if she's town it's not the weirdest thing, im unsure if it's ~tmi~

it's shooting herself in the foot though if we're both scum together. sorry my brain is mush rn

mod: v/la until 12/16

[Ydrasse]

i simply don’t know my alignment

[Ydrasse]

beetlejuice beetlejuice beetlejuice

i'm dead tired

[Ydrasse]

gloria, do you feel as a player you're capable of replicating the like, very strong reactions you have to being scumread as scum?

[Ydrasse]

Gloria, will you dance with me?

[Ydrasse]

you don't have to accept that but i thought i'd offer, you're my strongest tr and if you're playing outside of your scumrange than kudos but this feels like every town game i've played with you so far so ye

[Ydrasse]

hmmmm

[Ydrasse]

fsr my mind just went, "is jessie/infinity a team that can exist?"

[Ydrasse]

i’m just ignoring flea’s push on me at this point, irl’s drained me of like the will to play too much + engaging with that is a mess since fae, whether town or scum, isn’t gonna leave the deathtunnel

[Ydrasse]

like either scum!flea is super frustrated rn that fae can’t force an elim through on me/keep me out of pairs (bc i view myself as the Easy position in relation to my effort) or town!flea is so tunneled on me that like, both of us town throwing shit at each other doesn’t do anything productive

[Ydrasse]

gloria, my dance option is still open for you to take!

[Ydrasse]

me in my bp vest tonight

[Ydrasse]

hi can i get a tldr of what’s goin on?

[Ydrasse]

i just got off work please tell me who to vote before deadline

[Ydrasse]

jessie gth who you voting?

[Ydrasse]

Ydrasse is playing to her town meta a lot.
She is vibing
Ydrasse has less possibility of an agenda

she is literally a replica of her SS2 playstyle where she just ghosts.

im like getting flashbacks to myself getting elimd and her just not showing up to the launching ceremony.

sorry i’ve been at work with a dead phone today so i couldn’t check in + i’ve been kinda lowkey in most games/not trying to really solve unless it’s imperative

[Ydrasse]

we have like 10 mins bleh

[Ydrasse]

VOTE: flea

let’s resolve isis/infinity w the night kill

[Ydrasse]

i’m never going to be able to read faes slot without heavy bias

[Ydrasse]

and it’s a lie to say i could distinguish btwn isis and infinity rn

gth though i’m biased for isis being town bc she fought for me

[Ydrasse]

idk who does i really don’t

i’ll feel bad if flea is town but i’m soured by today

[Ydrasse]

we have to pick so if you wanna switch last minute do it

[Ydrasse]

well it’ll be clear after tonight

[Ydrasse]

i’m genuinely sorry if this is wrong

[Ydrasse]

now who woulda seen that one coming ...

[Ydrasse]

my bare minimum is powerfully towny

[Ydrasse]

i’m less upset now with your ate knowing that though

[Ydrasse]

the games not over is it...???

[Ydrasse]

did scum concede or did flea just claim pre-flip??

[Ydrasse]

(looks around) i was thinking it was leaning towards being infinity after reading early game but okay

[Ydrasse]

true

[Ydrasse]

i’m cool w that

isis

i’m gonna look like a clown if scum isn’t in those two

[Ydrasse]

oh that’s a vote oops

[Ydrasse]

does pooky put himself into this situation as scum where he’s like basically like “oh you guys kill mw anyways gg”

[Ydrasse]

idk if that’s what he wants but he feels foamier

[Ydrasse]

townier, but apparently my phone thinks he’s a good soap too

[Ydrasse]

what a game! gg!

uh, i feel like what i think about the game has already been said; it doesn't feel very fun for the conspirators because the stakes are so high for them and thus it boxes them into having to do very specific things, i feel like? and if you have one person who gets caught it's just over. the second half was personally really engaging for me, because well, dance games are fun, but at that point our poe had narrowed itself down quite dramatically and i feel like town had a not-terrible time identifying each other then. props to pooky btw for going the extra mile!

like, in theory these two things combined together should be cool because i like conspiracy games and i like dance games but it just didn't mesh well, which is a shame... it was still fun though, all the same! everyone in this game is great, was a really fun group. ty for playing everyone, and a big ty for hosting @hectic!!!

[Ydrasse]

no redactions in my pt!
