Mini 2059: Secrets of the Anuket Topaz [Over]

[Chara]

Xtoxm: why, exactly?
because we didn't lynch tris, where you haven't even attempted to explain why she needs to be lynched?
if you're town here i'm surprised at how little you've done to show it.

[Ankamius]

That's a pretty classic ate skitter

[skitter30]

oh it's never too early for me to get paranoid

[Nimueh]

So with Ank and Skitter switching their votes, Xtoxm is at L-2 now and Flubber at L-4, I think.

Both are now tied at L-3.

[Ankamius]

Trust for today at least?

If we don't lynch scum then I won't lead d3 unless the thread just completely dies

[skitter30]

Like please trust me at least for today

If my solve is wrong and xtoxm/Flubber is NOT SvS, then I will step back and rethink

We have time to take lynched like this because we have more than enough time to reshift ourselves if we end up being wrong

is this directed at me? because voting flubber when you think xtoxm/flubber is kinda trusting you? not sure what you're asking of me tbh. you want me to go back on xtoxm?

also i'm god-awful at reading ate, especially in real time; i need like a delay of ~2 irl days to try to read it properly

[skitter30]

also didn't i get massive flak earlier for sheeping you ...?

[Chara]

i also thought Flubber was your preferred here.

[Nimueh]

idk how good my reads are this game so far
i have a bunch of townreads (your slot, ank, reck, and enter)
and a bunch of people that are null because they've been lurking-ish (luckily creature replaced one of those, so hopefully that'll be easy)
and i don't ahve super strong scumreads rn

i'm not townreading chara yet, and nimueh feels scummy to me but i'm not sure i should be relying on my read there so yeah
not entirely sure where i want to vote rn
maybe i'll go back to brigitte.

ok i wont sheep you then lol
i looked at elbirns iso and i wanna say its his scum game
my meta on him is like 4 years old tho so idk

Couldn’t this be distancing? I don’t know why any of Elbirn’s recent posts are townie. Super aggressive, completely out of left field, to a number of people mind you.

[Ankamius]

Just noting here

Skitter has been sorting
Chara has been sorting
Nimueh has been sorting
Reck has been sorting
Creature I will trust the townreads of
Succinct has been sorting
tris has been sorting

NMSA is just... there
Elbirn had a sketchy return to the thread

Flubber has had really wooden contributions that make no sense
Xtoxm is just... wild flailing

[Nimueh]

also didn't i get massive flak earlier for sheeping you ...?

You didn’t D1.

It was directed at you

I'm trying to break the paranoia before it can take over your thoughts

[skitter30]

uh you picked an argument with me because i voted you when ank said she wasn't townreading you ...

[skitter30]

i'm not really paranoid of you; i'm pretty sure you're town
i'm not sure i trust your reads or your solve tho

@ank

[Ankamius]

I honestly think there's good odds that the game is just solved already

These wagons have been stalled long enough that it is very unlikely for the slots that have consistently been around and hunting to be scum (otherwise one would have won out I bet, specifically keeping up this charade to no practical effect is ridiculous scum strategy)

Of the three slots that were wagoned, two have showed signs of caving under the pressure, while the third (tris) never has once

Just another aspect of the gamestate that supports scum being in the mostly lurker slots

[Ankamius]

i'm not really paranoid of you; i'm pretty sure you're town
i'm not sure i trust your reads or your solve tho

@ank

well

That's what I'm asking you to trust for today, at least enough to see whether I start delivering scum heads

[skitter30]

... i'm voting flubber tho
i'm not entirely sure what you're asking me to trust exactly

i'll prob switch back to xtoxm if needed but i'm still thinking about it

[Ankamius]

I really just need my theory tested at this point because I'm going to have to force myself to disengage entirely otherwise :V

[Nimueh]

uh you picked an argument with me because i voted you when ank said she wasn't townreading you ...

It was my honest perception that what you were saying about me, came accross as contradictory. It wasn’t personal at all and I’m genuinely sorry if it upset you.

However, you weren’t on Brigitte. You weren’t voting anyone EoD1, so you really can’t be fairly considered to be sheeping Ank.

[Ankamius]

... i'm voting flubber tho
i'm not entirely sure what you're asking me to trust exactly

i'll prob switch back to xtoxm if needed but i'm still thinking about it

To trust me enough to delay your paranoia until tomorrow

I suspect otherwise that your confidence is going to plummet upon a scumflip today

With 12 alive it takes 7 to lynch. The Day 2 deadline is in (expired on 2019-03-19 23:56:59).

Mod Notes:

skitter30 is V/LA on weekends.
Nimueh is V/LA while sick.

[Nimueh]

No please don’t do that, I’ll vote for any of Elbirn/Xtoxm/Flubber if it can result in a lynch. We still have time, so no reason to get discouraged.

[skitter30]

oh you're specifically saying that i shouldn't get paranoid about flubber/xtoxm being tvs until like tomorrow?
i wasn't really sure what we were talking about exactly
yeah sure
i think the day is kinda dead so idk i kinda just want to lynch one (preferably flubber!) and see what happens
if you're wrong and someone flips town i reserve the right to just ignore your gamesolve and your entreaties to trust you or whatever going forward

[xRECKONERx]

ank threatening the gamestate if we dont power thru ur preferred lynch is uh not a great look

[Ankamius]

I don't really say this enough in games

Whenever I feel like I have a confident solve in a game and enough scum properly pegged to be able to push town into a win, I'm always much more afraid of getting NKed and town being thrown off track without me there than of getting my scumreads lynched

I don't want to get these lynches because I forced people to sheep me with no other choice

I want town to be set up to be able to get them without me there at all

And having someone who can hold a lot of influence over the rest of the town fall prey to a paranoic mindset as a solve is being put into effect is one of the single worst scenarios I can think of

I want to avoid that scenario much more than I want either of these lynches
