[Ankamius]

Ok

What are the optional pairings do you think

[Dannflor]

It's NAI. Either align can do it. As town or Scum they can be legit angry or faking the emotion.

I agree with you at a basic level. I just think the extent of this makes it more likely town than not.

[Nancy Drew 39]

Ok

What are the optional pairings do you think

For me: Dann/Krazy/RC would be ideal, maybe Urist, if he becomes townier?

I think whichever 3 of those I don’t partner with, should ideally go to you, Taly, PB or Alisae.

However, that still leaves 1 of you unpartnered. So, I think maybe DT? If it wasn’t for our disastrous pairing in MU Lovers’ game, I would seriously consider him but we clashed in that - not anywhere as much as I’d probably clash with Moment, however.

I had Gamma previously much higher on my list but I can’t move her up until she A) explains her reasoning for how this setup is more beneficial to town than the previous one. B) Why she mentioned you specifically, in her scumread on me. C) I need to see more of her reads.

[Vedith]

Interesting.

[Taly]

So yeah

I am starting to think it's better to have 2 ladies sit out than to deal with risking vedith being scum or a yolobomber

It cuts the first dance still, but it is a lot less risk and it's easier to plan around than just no lynching and trying to solve the game with the 4 extra players since we can force a large group of scummy and useless players to leave

Just read this through skimming

Giving this a very hard no.

This is a beneficial plan to scum on multiple levels, and I don't know how having multiple people die Pre-Dance connects to

Vedith's

voting accountability?

If it did, then why is

Vedith

a strong scumread for you? Otherwise, I don't understand the point of mentioning this.

Ank

, if you're unable to articulate reads and analyze until this weekend, why are you posting?

It makes any apathy you've stated to have seem forced. 1166

*Waiting until tonight to see if Krazy will respond to my latest quote/question to him, and then I'll form readslist. I've already began organizing thoughts on some players and I plan to do more ISOs.*

[Ankamius]

It's because I'm engaged with the game on a surface level but I don't have the time to go deep analyze the game because my schedule makes it really awkward to.

[Taly]

...I'm a bit confident that, if you spent as much time analyzing than continually having conversations with 5-6 people, you'd have more concise content to show.

[Ankamius]

Not the way I do it, no. Trying to do it the way I do it is hideously slow without a desktop and I've had trouble sitting at mine for long enough to get through it enough to have results.

[Taly]

At the moment, it looks like you're putting more emphasis on convincing people of your viewpoints rather than assessing the validity and reasons behind them.

1)

Are you going to reply to my response to your 1729?

2)

Do you have reads on more than 4 people?

3)

Is there anyone you think is a good option to pair with yourself? Even if it's just a small gut thought?

[Taly]

Ok

I think whichever 3 of those I don’t partner with, should ideally go to you, Taly, PB or Alisae.

Ank

is a lady and couldn't pair with

PB, Ali

or myself.

Plus,

Ank

is not nearly as high on my town list as she is with you; so can you explain your read there?

[Krazy]

Why is my sentiment a reason you want to dance with me? And think that we mesh well?

I don't feel like you are attempting to pocket me at this point; you feel like you are more interested in sorting me correctly.

Haven't caught up in this thread yet

No, no, you misunderstood my post. I wasn’t suggesting that Ank, you, PB and Ali pair up.

I was saying that whomever of Dann/Krazy/RC/DT/Urist I don’t pair up with. IOW, I think that these are probably the best gents for me and my townreads to pair up with atm. I’m actually more null on Moment rn but I just had other people higher than her, on my list.

It’s a tonal thing with Ank. She comes off as very sincere to me but unless you were more familiar with her meta, you probably wouldn’t see it.

[Taly]

upon some thought and reflection

I trust

Vedith

with 8 votes more than half of the other gents.

p-edit

Ironically enough... This response makes me think you're trying to sort me correctly and not pocket me Alongside your

"I didn't expect

Taly

to immediately accept"

or you said a phrase similar to this when I skimmed.

I haven't declined your dance proposal, but I've thought about waiting until tomorrow or Sunday to give an answer; as people are holding off until then, and I want people to at least be on the same page but still NOT waiting for the last minute/last 2 days.

Reminder that deadline is February 14th to my understanding.

[Krazy]

Take your time... we'll see if my heart can wait that long

still not feeling the confident

Ank

townread but I can see where you're coming from.

:/ I'm still a little paranoid about being pocketed or manipulated...

Ank

telling me

Krazy

was not a good pair and strengthening her scumread there while

DoubtingThomas

asked me to dance did not give me a good feeling.

Mostly because of the timing there, though, not because of my read on either of them prior. 1254 1260 and 1261

But that's why I shut down a little around 1443 and 1448

x-x All of my ended games from 2018 to 2019 have told me I'm... a bit easy to pocket or I townread someone too quickly.

It's why I'd much rather NOT claim my coin value right now, as I want people to partner with me if, and only if, they actually want to work with me.

[Taly]

[RadiantCowbells]

Mechanically I think pairing Drew is optimal rn

[RadiantCowbells]

But I'm still probably not going to

[Taly]

non-game fun post

nancy

this game so far has made me want to hydra with you more lol <3

Mechanically I think pairing Drew is optimal rn

<3 as long as our hearts are still merged

[Pink Ball]

Mechanically I think pairing Drew is optimal rn

[Krazy]

OK only 5 pages this morning not too bad

That was supposed to say "gj guys" but tbh I'm kinda whatever on pairing rn. I've got 6 coins though so I'll be a little choosy.

I mean I guess we still don't have cohesion on whether we're no lynching, speed lynching, or doing what in dance 1 so I guess you might want to pick someone that will go with town choices from pre-dance. I would prefer that you townread them given I'm leaning town on you.

This version of the setup favors scum a lot more than the old one

mmhmmm

[Krazy]

DR WORM must EXIT the game before INTERMISION!!

Interesting. In that case who is your top female scumread (after Nancy)?

[Krazy]

I'm not entirely opposed to Nancy/RC

I feel like the post count is sorta keeping up but the rate of interesting things being said has started to slow down

I need more from Allo, Pvt, Alisae, Moment, {RC, but more because I want to see more of his reads}, and I think I need to reread Pink Ball sometime later today

I feel like I've asked for literally anyone to explain their townreads of DT and I don't think I've heard it yet? I'm not even scumcasing him, he's just the lowest of my nulls with a few minor pings and I'm trying to see what other people like about the slot

[Krazy]

I might be onboard if enough people think it's a good idea. I'm not convinced of Vedith being scum, but I'll believe those who say he can't be relied on to use his lynch power well. I'm glad I don't have anything like that.

Given that one gentlemen is leaving the dance already, do you have a preference for who should be excluded from the dance in pre-dance, and is there a second gentlemen that you scumread strongly enough that you would refrain from joining the dance to ensure his exclusion?
