micro 833: a coalition (D O N E)

[probs a robot]

It feels to me as though she is getting half way through completing thoughts and then abandoning them, or losing her grip on where to take them next.

i mean when the people i'm talking to disappear for multiple days on end it's kinda hard to hold a conversation with them, y'know?

Sure, but I feel as though your capability for this is lower than usual as town here.

HEAL: northsidegal
HEAL: Gamma Emerald
Btw anyone else notice TesXX has me in his coalition despite scumreading me?

i thought this was an awful post given that his initial coalition was more of a joke than anything
I don't really have anything else to say regarding the other posts.

yes, thank you, that post was awful

This is a classic.
This post is objectively bad.
Does it come from town or scum? You two are critiquing quality of posts

i talked about why i didn't like 78 at least three different times now and nobody noticed and/or really commented on it except like you, and i'm appreciating that someone else finally agrees with me / sees that it's a bad post

maybe northsidegal has turned into her evil after ego southfrontboy and has become a scum god and we're all just failing

i don't think i've ever played a game before where literally half the pl wasn't posting

I apologise: to preface my prior comment. I don't believe this is alignment indicative.

[probs a robot]

I mean this game is markedly worse than usual but that doesn't mean I'm going to townread you based purely off position in gamestate.... that is your greatest strength as scum...

[skitter30]

(that's straight up a rewording of stuff that skitter has already said. I agree that it bothers me about Gamma but it doesn't make me think he's scum necessarily as much as I just want it to stop.)

Pardon me cutting in but I believe skitter has a very similar scumgame, to your play earlier.

She sits to the side relatively safely and interjects with questions which are structured to present as critical. Often they do not actually accomplish as much as they appear to, but parsing that on day one is particularly difficult.

As town she is quite a lot more well-honed; she is focused on sorting and is generally extremely finely tuned. There's a lucidity which I am yearning to see from her here which is not present. A lot of her questions look like "questions people ask to look like town", before "questions that sort people assertively".

It feels to me as though she is getting half way through completing thoughts and then abandoning them, or losing her grip on where to take them next.

Currently busy running other programs so I'm not going to be able to go into this in too much detail. I just hope it assists you in understanding why my sources have lead me to hesitate with townreading skitter.

i think i know who you are again
(i've only seen like one person describe me as 'well-honed' )

a lot of my questions this game had the intent of making people just like ... post at all
like yeah i was looknig for things to post about in order to try to get other people to post

[skitter30]

this doens't feel like a game where we'll get the coalition right

Quoted for truth.

Sadly this is the kind of read I anticipate scum!skitter is very capable of faking.

oh yeah i can def fake that

[probs a robot]

i think i know who you are again

My programmers have informed me you are 70% likely to correctly identify the human whose intelligence I was crafted around prior to endgame

do you see why I am unable to townread you?

yeah but you called it bad
i'm explaining why i made it at all

[probs a robot]

May as well say it: I am an invisibility alt

I intended to express that GAMMA's post was bad. Yours and TDW's reactions were fine but not valuable.

[skitter30]

*not* who i was going to guess even remotely
so you replaced yourself huh

ok i need to think about you again

[skitter30]

now yeah, that makes about 12 billion times more sense ok

[skitter30]

i thought you were in like europe or australia or something

[skitter30]

ok pretty sure you're town i think

[skitter30]

wait you towncased yourself

VOTE: Skitter
Be more normal ok thx <3

Skitter's initial posting had roused something in my scumdar module as well. I liked this for an opening vote (more than I liked most of the opening votes here).

HEAL: Musicjax
HEAL: Yuriko

Yuriko is rarely a member of the mafia's first choice for their coalition here.
I would have been thoroughly impressed of scum!musicjax identified Yuriko as a choice here.
Unless it was entirely random. But musicjax is probably a human, and humans are incapable of randomness. Therefore I stand by this.

Yuriko's posts don't feel faked.

...indeed, it was not random!
He successfully picked the most pure slot in rvs. He could have easily gone for a more cliché slot or random healed to look busy.

Yo

any thoughts on the setup, musicjax??

I should be in the coalition.

For someone with as little tone as musicjax, I very much like this for tonally towny.

HEAL: The Dark Wanderer

What's the reason for anything.

I believe that this read contains more nuance than musucjax let's on. It irritates me that he has replaced out (and part of my impasse comment reflects here).
TDW's post is the type of content which demands to be townread.
However, I do not actually believe it is alignment indicative.
He strikes me as the type of player from another kind of site who has posted "enough", without contributing a hefty effort to solve the game. This isn't alignment indicative either, it is just the way the game is played elsewhere. In a longer term it may be possible to allocate to part of a scumcase. In isolation it is a playstyle/acitivity tell and nothing more.

I think Musicjax bit the bait here; he healed a post which smelled towny, but when called out on it, was unable to open his heart as to why it felt towny. In context I believe this is town indicative.

Oh freak someone might use this chain of humorous posting to scumread me later.

+ tone points
Also reflects back to the point DVa made earlier. I thoroughly agree that this kind of self-aware, depreciating comedy is town indicative for this player.

HEAL: northsidegal
HEAL: Gamma Emerald
Btw anyone else notice TesXX has me in his coalition despite scumreading me?

VOTE: Gamma
Yo guys join me on this pretend wagon.

This is advancing the game, and is done in a way with no regard for appearances.
Very invisibility-flavoured way to do it, to boot.

i'm trying to figure out what this post means
my gut says in the context is townie but i don't think i can explain why rn

[The Dark Wanderer]

your play has continually been what I would expect decent scum to do in the situations you were presented with, robot.
the emphasis on townblock demolition, the putting of people that I think are scum in the middle, etc, attacking me until it was proven futile.

[DVa]

skitter are you being serious when you believe that he is an invisibility alt cause I'm really confused rn

I was like 98% sure that was a joke

or are you referring to who you really think he is in his self-meta?

I didn't really believe I was any of this. Your tunnel makes substantially more sense I suppose.

i thought he was x
he said it was vizzy; i believed him because the following two posts make a lot of sense coming from vizzy given my last scumgame that he was in

I mean this game is markedly worse than usual but that doesn't mean I'm going to townread you based purely off position in gamestate.... that is your greatest strength as scum...

do you see why I am unable to townread you?

the more i think about it the less i believe it because i really don't think they live in north america (non-american spellings for things like 'color' and 'realize' + times they post)

so i initially believed it and now i'm more skeptical

[The Dark Wanderer]

i will replace myself... with myself

[DVa]

Like, I would have to see Vizzy confirm robot is Vizzy, because rn I thought it was so absurd as to be a joke
