hey did you know that if you multiply this page's number by 23 you get this posts' number haha anyway where is Invisibility, Shaddowez, Lucca, and Dragons at?

[lucca261]

"remember that other game we both played. you thought he was scum, he was town. so therefore he IS scum now"

Wait so how are you reading me? I was under the assumption you had a weak gutping that I was scummy from what I was doing, but comparing this way makes no sense if the read was the same?

Exactly. It was mostly a gut/vibes read that you were doing something scummy, so I asked because why not, let's engage with the guy.
the other game issue is just something I'm hammering in my mind to avoid doing. I was annoyed with myself for misreading you last game, so I'm taking care to not fall for the same trap. got it?

:O my number facts worked

Hello Hello Lucca! I'll let you catch up to the thread, then we can discuss with one another.

[Argonauts]

My experience with Black is that she's usually super aggro, the chill vibes make me think "that's a pod person" but at the same time I don't really want to punish her for that with the threat of elimination

I think if she is town that she'll suddenly pounce on someone when we least expect it and start ripping out throats

Black is often low activity on the weekend, she already mentioned that. I'm sure she'll pick up in activity before long and then you may have more from her than you wanted.

Some catch-up thoughts

Spoiler:

Feel good about HT and Black so far.

Null on JV. @204 is kinda concerning for me. It's a non-commitable accusation and the 'Am I looking too deeply?" is a sudden change in tone from a player that seems incredibly confident. I like the Macho Man vote though.

First thing that pinged me on my read-through is Shaddow coming back to rephrase a previous post after 20 minutes. @137 then @138. Kinda gives me the feel he's concerned about other people's reactions to his posts.

Reading the thread I had the same opinion as post @179 so that's enough to put HT at my townpile so far
Also liked Black for @194 because of the longest post bit

Disliked STD entrance. More of a vibe read than anything substancial, but it seems he's trying to look 'detached cool townie' if that makes sense.

And that's it. Something about the tone on @243 by Argonauts is also strange.

hello jake, let's talk

VOTE: Shaddowez
tell me: would scum do that?

[Argonauts]

I would like to slay the three-headed hydra for the crime of using their roleplay to obfuscate their reads and the identities of the heads. I don't mind prose in small doses, but I'm having too much trouble understanding what the fuck they're even saying and I can't keep track of who's saying what. Plus some of their posts are literally just roleplay filler and I can't just skim their posts to find out what's worth reading and what's just for fun.

You cannot be serious about not being able to tell the difference between our vastly different takes on posting.

Maybe I need to up my thus-far nearly nonexistent roleplay factor.

HMM

[lucca261]

hey argonauts so just confirm to me:
so @Drew is @Asclepius

and looking at a few games it seems that @Orpheus is @RH9 and @Atalanta is @Aureal? at least the writing feels more similar this way

correct?

VOTE: Shaddowez

If by that, you mean your vote on Shaddowez, I would have to say it's likely for either alignment to vote thusly, each for their own reasons. Personally, if I wasn't voting Black, I would join the Shadez wagon.

If by that you instead mean the body of your post within the spoiler...

Spoiler:

I agree that HT is a townlean [They seem nice and agreeable.]

As stated before, I would disagree that Black is towny here. She hasn't really done much from what I've seen, though her recent musings do bring forth hope.

Jackson.. I generally am giving them the greenlight here, but I should admit that's mainly motivated by giving you the redlight. [Add that to the list of things I haven't read yet..]

You liked the vote on Mucho? Why?

I guess that's one way to read Shades there? It reads to me more like he's trying to mold and bend a decent question out of an otherwise throwaway line.

That's a strange take from that post from Black. I can't wrap my head around it.

Dragons is.. present.. ish. They would be on my "to pressure" list for sure.

the hello jake was a p-edit mostly

Fair enough.

Really though, burning question: Why did you like Jackson's vote on Mucho given the full context of that post?

[lucca261]

About Black, I think her getting to that conclusion is a towny-progression. Something like:

1) hmm, Hu Tao posts feels bigger than normal
2) let me check her ISO on previous games
3) oh, it is the biggest post since "x game"
4) I wonder what does that mean?

if Black was scum, I think she would've used that information in a more definite way. It's a good argument, scum would use that to get somewhere, at least in my view.

---

liked the vote on Macho Man because he looks like a very analytical player and I can see how town!JV would get a little annoyed and paranoid by the fast confident read + the fluff as it seems like easy content.

I can see someone who is assumedly bored and is probably re-reading the game to get more conclusions going back, looking at Macho's read and going: "wow, this is bullshit for how early it is". So I think the vote makes sense. At least I can see how he would come to this conclusion if he was town. If he was scum, I don't see the benefit

[Jake The Wolfie]

Not burning enough, I'm getting sleepy.

If the game somehow fucken collapses overnight, I'd say that a ~reasonable group of town would be Tao, Stargazer, and Mucho.

Goodnightvale

[pre-edit: i acknowledge your post lucca and will read it in full when i wake up]

I think if she is town that she'll suddenly pounce on someone when we least expect it and start ripping out throats

I can be chill at the beginning of games. I haven't found anything to pounce on yet

[Black]

Feel good about HT and Black so far.

Did you get a chance to read my question to you?

[Black]

I kinda feel like there's some solving going on underneath Mucho Man's gimmick. This slot feels hard to read but they might be town

I don't really have any scumreads yet so I'll just help out on another wagon
