Mini 2074: Madness at Port Arthur (Game Over)

[skitter30]

examples being the first half of 407, which is probably true but did make me worried that she actually did use similar wording to a towngame on purpose.
and then, the referencing of her paranoia of me in 335 felt again like a purposeful explanation of her thoughts meant to be townread rather than advance the game.

she also isn't really pursuing a scumread yet.

a) tris linked a scumgame there, and in the scumgame i ~absolutely~ tried to mimic how i would have written it as town. when i clicked the link i was actually kinda surprised at how similar it was to what i wrote here lol
(i don't have such a great memory of what i did that game)

b) wasn't writing that to try to be townread, was trying to explain what i was thinking wrt to you and why i wasn't sure it even mattered

c) this is one of those games where i don't have super many super strong scumreads

[skitter30]

not sure I see enough for this read att, though.

idk
like i said at the time - it was gut; i do sometimes have gut reads on small amounts of content

Ah yes I'm remembering now, the previous quote, this quote, and the next on are where I was really like "I don't see what you mean". Anti-mindmeld, because I don't see why scum!anyone wouldn't make this sort of joke post. 0 mindmelds so far.

it just didn't feel like something i thought scum!tris would say. (not scum in general, scum!tris in particular)

she also pointed out i was and that i don't have a good impression of what her scumgame looks like, so this doesn't really matter anyways

I've said before and will say again I think it's a fine trajectory.

well, again, it wasn't the unovte itself that i had trouble with, more with the fact that once he unvoted he just dropped engaging with the thread; it felt like he used the read to engage with the thread but once he felt the read wasn't valid anymore he couldn't justify voting there anymore but didn't know where to go next

So here's the weirdest thing I see in skitter's ISO: she questions my townread on Smile, who so far she has only gut-townread in agreement with me. feels like skitter "forgot" her townread when she realized it could actually take a mislynch off the table.
otoh maybe she forgot her townread for real.

i think i had forgotten the gut townread on smile

This post feels entirely unnecessary, which Idk what to do with.

she said it was her first time playing in the mini queue iirc and i try to be welcoming and explain things if i can, but i didn't understand the question

@skitter why did you move from CJ to RCE in 355? Felt like your case on CJ was only getting stronger at that point.
Also why gut-town on Fuscezu?

i felt like cj's response was passably decent and i kinda wanted to pressure rce. i could probably vote there again

idk. he just doesn't feel like scum rn. this isn't particularly helpful but i doin't have words to articulate this rn

i think i answered everything but if i missed something lmk

[Fuscezu]

Were town because we could, at any point, stop posting and let you lynch something else.

[Fuscezu]

Like its fundamental mafia.

VOTE: rce


ftr I still dont like being in a hydra and dropping reads without my P

[Smile]

skitter are you here

I'm gonna try to get some work done here and you can talk about anything you want to me in the mean time idk

Percy why did you drop your push on insomnia, when we could have gotten something going
especially when the new vote is shiidaji which fundamentally does nothing

This isn't going to make much sense but I feel like we have similar thought process' in most cases. So sure you reading me scum was weird but it may be from a small sample size. I figured if you're town you would recognize me as town down the line.

Plus confronting you directly wouldn't give me the kind of read on you that I'm looking for. This doesn't seem like a pressure vote but I also don't consider myself as lhf so I still don't know what the play here is.

it's kinda pressure i suppose; or at least a way to start a dialogue so that i can try to sort out if i'm right or wrong here
i was kinda expecting some sort of response to me saying taht i was scumreading you, even if it was just 'why' or something

i guess one of the things that feel a little off is that you feel kinda passive? more than i'd expect at least?

Fair. I'm kind of out of sync with this game in particular. Couldn't tell you why and I hope it switches around day 2. At least I'll make an effort to improve my input.

I don't necessarily have a read on you either way and a vote on me based on gut doesn't sway me either way, but I'd probably feel that way as either alignment.

The best way to get content out of me would probably be to force it with a legitimate wagon, preferrably before EOD so I don't get flashlynched without giving my thoughts.

I'm following along with the game so I know what's going on but don't have any strong feelings, I have reason to believe ceejay may be town, I still think CC is town and that's about it.

If the hill I die on is my Shiidaji read directly following rvs then I find it incredibly weak and a probable point for scum to sow doubt. No one's really asked but no I don't really have Shiidaji as town anymore following his absence. Scumreading him on an activity rep out feels dumb though.

Oh insomnia is probably town as well, he would be my Fringe read however.

I feel like scum would pause before going like "you should force content out of me with a legit wagon" like RCE does here

Uh now I think about it

Chara this game has a lot more initiative than the game I played with him, which is a year ago and he was roleplaying but still. Note initiative doesn't equate active, year old meta tells me scum Chara does things, but would rather do it under someones shadows.
probs not going to touch chara today

I've given enough of a grace period for prods. They start now; Shiidaji has been prodded.

Stagnant game state probably implies top wagons being villagers or something
Or it's just shiidaji and he can't post and his partners don't really bother defending there

either way I think its a good look for fus? idk

Id like to stop being townread for relatively weak speculation pls

Shiidaji has been prodded for a second time.
There was an error in the previous vote count; insomnia should have been voting for Smile instead of himself. (Still getting used to tracking votes with Excel.)

Why insomnia?

[tris]

Clarity has moved into a townread for me.

[tris]

432 is a post that felt rather weak to me.

@rce why are you voting irrel again?

@tris can i interest you in joining the rce wagon?

[tris]

@tris can i interest you in joining the rce wagon?

Yeah, VOTE: RCEnigma I'll have a bit more to say in a moment.

[tris]

LHF wagons are really bad for vca

Scums literally as likely to defend LHF with minimal content as attack it.

Maybe you should actually vote then, and start a good wagon.

You say something like this, but you're vote is on a slot that's probably going to be replaced.

Yeah this is also how I'm feeling about the game rn. I normally don't lurk as much as I have this game as town but the environment of this lobby is completely different from that I've been used to from games I usually am in. Every post I've seen so far feels the same, like I'd read through 5 pages of the game and get absolutely nothing out of it. I'm probably just bad at the game or w/e but I'm entirely lost

Yep, I've been feeling the same way. I'm frequently somewhat rude/aggressive on D1 in order to generate content, but no one seems to understand that method on this site and I get scum read for it. I'm tired of spending the game defending, so I'm purposely backing off in this game. The downside is that nothing much is happening.

I'd much prefer you being aggressive than not engaging like you've been.

[tris]

For some reason it seems like no one's really expressed a read on me. Does anyone want to give it a shot?
