Merchant's Daughter [Endgame]

[Ankamius]

Yea Ank doesn't want me

out of curiosity, what do you mean by old school?

playstyle that was more common back in 2012 when you joined

best way I can describe it is that old school is more each post is a high school essay while most posts nowadays are twitter posts

[Firebringer]

I love the twitter style posting tbh. essay posting is exhausting.

[Dannflor]

He fits the bill of probably won't be widely town read (at least I don't really town read him) but has a chance of maybe getting a long with Nancy

Pvt is probably preferred here though. I think the pairs should probably prioritize how well they'll work together so that's up to Nancy probably to decide

lmao yea ok I get what you mean

I played a bit back then and then only came back recently, so I haven't quite adjusted, and probably won't ever fully because I like being more transparent in my thought processes than the twitter post style allows

[Ankamius]

good

the amount of fucking walls that were prevalent back then still give me nightmares

Well, I can name one advantage of essay-style posts as compared to what's going on now.

[Krazy]

if you want a flashback you can always go read every other game in newbie queue

[Krazy]

hey moment, how you doing?

I doubt it.

[Moment]

hey moment, how you doing?

Had a pretty terrible day and have been feeling all-around terrible, honestly.

So, let's read 67 pages of a Mafia game.

[Krazy]

It might be helpful to know that Firebringer claimed 8 coins and Vedith danced so some of my mech talk in the relatively early day is... somewhat out of date at this point

not sure that helps much with the other 65 pages

[Firebringer]

isn't it amazing that I would be the one to get 8 coins? the one who doesn't care about playing mechanical gets the mechanical 8 coins

[Ankamius]

ok well

I have this weekend off of work so I promise I will make an attempt to do analysis stuff so I can actually get some reads this game beyond "idk maybe town???" or "idk maybe scum???"

[Moment]

Sigh.

I really don't want to have this Nancy Drew scumread that I have.

[Ankamius]

How far are you in the thread so far moment?

[Moment]

Page 9.

I gut townread Allomancer.

I'm right around where you're calling Dannflor scum for "wooden posting" and weak setup-spec and other such reasons. I myself find this fairly towny:

A lot of people are posting a lot, very few people have said anything of value.

Vedith’s self preservation is town, also

In my experience, scum in this situation goes for fabricating some uncontroversial read to talk about rather than both declaring that nothing much of value has been said yet and making a completely out of left field townread on someone being scumread.

[Moment]

I am aware that you have previously brought up Nancy being scum. I'm also aware that RC popped in to say that he strongly townread Nancy, speaking from memory.

I myself believe it's indicative of her scumgame that she is 57 posts into her ISO and has barely mentioned reads yet, opting instead to talk more about the mechanics and to ask random questions of elaboration to various posts, seemingly without aim. I understand that her only scumgame on this site, Heroes Wanted, was characterized by a similar focus on mechanics in lieu of the early game reads that I expect from town Nancy.

[Ankamius]

you have no idea how happy I am that somebody else thought the exact same thing I did about that

[Ankamius]

I'm still pissed that the one post I lost is gone because I went a lot more into that than I ended up doing

[Krazy]

I understand that her only scumgame on this site, Heroes Wanted, was characterized by a similar focus on mechanics in lieu of the early game reads that I expect from town Nancy.

I know you're still in catchup mode so I don't really want to poke too much, but I feel like one of your recent-ish games with Nancy, Boundaries of Reality, featured a Nancy that opened the game with several mech points.

Let's look at every post I made in Boundaries of Reality:

Untrod Tripod has been replaced by Moment.

Shoot moment

Moment, who was

Mutant Caterpillar

, and

Town

1-Shot Weak Cop/Miller

,

died

in

Day 5

.

Mafia

Win Condition can no longer be stopped from being achieved. Endgame incoming.

(It's nothing. I was shot before I could post once, or really even read much of the game beyond Varsoon's ISO.)


In any case, I was mistaken in that Witches' Halloween Ball also featured Nancy Drew being scum. Can't say I read all that much of that game after I died, however.

[Ankamius]

btw, heroes wanted is a bit different in the mech sense in that her part in that exchange was discussing employing a pretty blatant pro-scum strategy with her scumpartner and just tunneling on that for a good chunk of the game

[Ankamius]

"for a good chunk of the game"

try good chunk of the day instead, idiot

sorry me

[Moment]

I actually need to go to sleep. Please try not to double the number of pages again.

Top of page 14 is my bookmark.

okay see you on page 134

[Ankamius]

anyways

I'm liking what Moment has had to say so far, even taking the Nancy stuff out; he can be the first gentleman townread I have
