I am! I'm a little disheartened in the early going because this is supposed to be the part that I don't have trouble with.In post 297, DeasVail wrote:Why don’t you have more confidence in being able to let your town light shine?
Are you not town?
Also I kind of want to make you post at least a little before I go to the dance with you. (And also, I'll admit, I was thinking a few hours before you posted that I'd probably townread you if you didn't jump on me immediately because doing so is probably a high EV play for a scum version) The offer helps me feel better, though. <3"I would prefer not to." --Herman Melville,Bartleby the Scrivener- Firebringer

I decided to post "haha just don't post that in the main thread", but to get up to date on the main thread first.

did suiciding as scum further your wincon? I don't understand how it could in this setup.. was it just a fancy selfhammer?"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"

I guess my suspicion is that you actually believe this since it's a weird angle to take.In post 302, Ankamius wrote:I'm primarily looking to avoid being a paranoia mislynch late in the game, which I suspect is a reasonable possibility if I start taking a lead role in the game throughout and the game hits a point where there's like... three pairings left. I would like to avoid that scenario.
I also have a tendency to get emotional or have my particular personality quirks either frustrate other people enough to compromise their ability to hunt properly or to shut myself down so that I become useless; I expect that this playerlist is one that this can happen in depending on how the game goes
if there's a high enough possibility of either of these scenarios happening, then it's far better for me to try tobuild an endgame townblock to PoE out the game and leave to cement that my solve is town motivatedthan to try to push each lynch myself and risk compromising the entire game over it
it's ultimately a decision of practicality over what is better for town in the lategame rather than the present; it's one of the reasons I'm very uneasy with the early townreads I've gotten, because becoming a consensus obvtown read has the downside of me practically being forced to be in that endgame pairing and risk the second scenario happening (unless I'm the designated sacrifice with Kagami for intermission, but I don't believe that's ever optimal unless I'm one of the biggest question mark slots in the game)

you realize that's because im holding back right? every dance game i am usually the first to throw an invite lolIn post 368, Kagami wrote:So far, I have to say that this is the most disciplined I've ever seen players in a dance setup, and is probably close to the best pre-game I've seen.

I'm a little confused why Ank isn't just on the "solve the whole flipping game super early, either get those lynches right away or at least when my reads are flip vindicated" path, that's what I do when I feel like a walking mislynch.In post 360, Cephrir wrote:

This game didn't have a proposal until the second post, because Ankamius is not the hero we deserve but she's the hero we need.In post 368, Kagami wrote:So far, I have to say that this is the most disciplined I've ever seen players in a dance setup, and is probably close to the best pre-game I've seen.
