Perfect Masquerade [Game Over]

[Lady 7]

sorry I've been informed I'm being a drunk asshole right now.

[Gentleman 6]

Why do you scumread L6?

[Lady 7]

I think that L6 is one of my top townreads. Do you think that's hasty?

Absolutely 100% yes i do.

[Lady 7]

How is that unclear?

[Lady 3]

I'm going to take a chill pill for the rest of pre dance but my 2 cents is

Lady 7 - Gent 5 or Gent 1
Lady 1 takes the other

[Lady 7]

PLEASE HOLD. my other half has informed me i have been playing mafia too long. Ill be back.

(Intermission)

[Lady 7]

dude gentlemen five is taken.

[Lady 3]

Okay can we all agree to force pair Gent 1 to Lady 7? :>

[Gentleman 4]

Lady 2, I would like to see your analysis of the current matching as well as your reads list, if possible. The more numbers you can attach to things, the more jubilant I become.

[Gentleman 4]

In addition, how comfortable are you in your scum game? If you could have paired with any of the gentlemen prior to them making the matches they have now, who would you have chosen? If your answer is Gentleman 2, please also include your second choice.

[Gentleman 4]

This game is

dense.

I'll be back later, I can only process so much at a time. It scares me that my day 2 catch-up is nearly as large as my day 1.

[Gentleman 2]

Ladies...

Gentlemen.

I come before you with a bowed head and a heavy heart. Unbeknownst to me, someone slipped something into my drink when I first arrived to the party. I realize that is no excuse for my behavior, I can only hope to explain it, and own it to the best of my ability.

I am not a cheat, or a hater of women, nor am I God's gift to them and have my own flaws. I am a lover and a family man looking to protect my family from those who mean to do us harm. My Lady has been doing that this whole time, so it's past time that I got my head in the game.

Whatever was in my drink is out of my system and I am riding high off some very calming smoke and I am ready to play.

I hope all accept my deepest apologies and from now on I will be opening my own beers.

[Gentleman 6]

Shrug. I won't keep shoving it down anyone's throats any further but I strongly believe both G3 and L6 are town and think they'd be a decent match.

[Lady 7]

you're an ass.

[Lady 7]

G3 not asking anyone even though he's been around a lot feels weird. I don't like his I don't want to drag anyone down, can we make it to endgame really.

I worry that he's waiting to see if his partner is townread enough for a scum-scum pairing that will make them super strong scum pairing that they'll win in that end game stand off.

What makes me most nervous about his approach is that he has hinted that he'd like his partner to be chosen for him -- which is a remarkably careful approach and not one that I would take if I was playing a game where I didn't know who I could trust and who I couldn't.

Right?

[Lady 3]

Lol I think they are a great double kill for d1 and thats why I want to match em.

I mean the point of this game is to pair confident townreads with each other, so like, I only want to pair with someone I confidently townread if people also confidently townread me. It's common sense if you think ahead, but most people just aren't.

I never said this, I want other people's input but if I do intend to survive to endgame I'm not going to pair with someone I don't townread.

That is not how you're behaving or what you said. And it doesn't even make sense because who do you have left??? Really. Choose.

[Lady 7]

And comments like those throw me for a loop because I really don't know where the town as a whole stands on me and that's vital information before I pair.

Pedit: did you not read what I just said

How much input have you been offering into the pair that have gone? Because really if you care this much, shouldn't you be having something to say? I don't quite remember all that much.

By your own admission you've played this before. So, it's in the choosing you tell us who you are and where you see yourself in this game. You signed up for a gentleman.

Make a choice.

[Gentleman 3]

I shouldn't have signed up as a gentleman honestly, if I play again I won't.

I don't see what the rush is?

[Lady 7]

there is no rush really, I'm just a bit drunk and suspicious that your waiting to see how your partner is read so you guys can make it to endgame and it has me really freaked out.

[Gentleman 3]

That's dumb.

[Lady 7]

it doesn't help that g6 is like ohhhhhhh get g3 and l6 together and i don't trust his motives.

[Lady 7]

That's dumb.

maybe

but

your face is dumb?

[Gentleman 3]

If you want to play that game, you could assign a POSSIBLE scum motivation to literally any action. That doesn't help anything. What we want are probable motivations, not tinfoil theories.

What do you think is probably the reason I'm holding out?

[Gentleman 3]

maybe

but

your face is dumb?

Shit you got me there.
