It still doesn't know what to think of Yessirree if it's being honest. It feels totally confused by how they approach the game.
i have not considered may's push on brian as scummy for a moment

maybe i'm actually just sheeping dannflor and lost interest in my may scumread

It isn't sure even it's willing to dive that deep into layers of If, Then, given the number of possibilities.
it may be tempted to overthink wagonomics here. i'd always caution doing what feels best to your reads/solve, rather than what feels right wagonomically - scum can do weird shit so sometimes wagon logic never feels right.

i don't think i've ever had the courage to try and mislim you that feels exhausting.

still rate the wagon on you & think the push there was fine. i lost the motivation to actively scumread you when dann stopped scumreading you.

though like, more accurately, when dann mentioned he borrowed so much from your early posts. my read on you was very discomfort/underwhelmed-coded and looking back i probably slept on a lot of your better observations bc you were aligned w people pushing me and i was looking elsewhere.

i don't think you or firebringer characterise my play in a way that's conducive to solving my alignment. that's fine, i've like played mafia before, 1928 just made me raise an eyebrow

I'm kind of assuming you were responding to my request for something of interest because you wanted me to change your read on you.

like "fypov I need to fix my read"

May, may it ask a question of you that it expects would normally receive a joke response but ask you to take it entirely seriously?

Okay, I'll use all three.

Can you write a paragraph about yourself as if you were writing a eulogy? Like... what kind of person you were, what your strengths were. Obviously lean it a little towards Mafia, but in general.

Then... do the same for It and for PenguinPower. It knows you won't know it very well, and perhaps not PP, but just... act confident? Even if you're wrong, it just wants to see what you would say if put on the spot, what your understanding of it is, and same with PP.

May had a strange mix of qualities, obsessive about some things, dismissive of others. An ex-pessimist or maybe just an inverted one. She always wanted to turn a phrase and find a creative way to persuade someone or prove a point. She was a three left turns kind of woman. Actually she used to lead three consecutive underarm turns to move around a dance floor at a right corner, but that was supposed to be a metaphor. She liked fun but also believed it is ok to care about things. She was better at demonstrating conviction than curiosity, probably.

Oblivion Ring was an echolocator extraordinaire who did not learn things the same way as other people but it fretted not. It found data points that could rule out certain patterns until it could narrow on the final one. Definitely it made sure to do things that would add more data points to work with. It disliked cloudiness. It did not want to borrow unreliable methods or methods that might not combine well with its way of mapping the world. It was not the best way to finish the 3d image.

PenguinPower liked to watch others and join in with their play. He did not think playing needed to be very complicated. He did not overly complicate the little differences between tee ball, kickball, and baseball, he always knew if you just motivate the others and stop the volleying process and run at the appropriate times you can win at all of these games. Sometimes he got frustrated at others decisions in the context of the game and shared a sharp proverb about life, and it showed he cared, but it could be tricky to be sure what he cared about. He was pretty solid in a crowded field because he knew what nonperfectionist improvements he wanted to add to any game and did not require control.

I wanted to try to figure out why I don't care about sorting you for introspective reasons. I kinda feel like I don't. I still don't after learning you're last in the draft

I'm still confused about why I don't care enough.

I guess that's radically different from the post you quoted in terms of tone but a serious tone isn't very useful anyway until I feel ready to jam idk
