Perfect Masquerade [Game Over]

[Lady 7]

Thought I'd beat him to it.

[Gentleman 6]

Hi L7 did you see my case on G1 do you agree that he's scum

[Gentleman 5]

L8 you ever play 3 houses? Any good?

Notice me senpai

[Gentleman 4]

Gentleman 1 we need to talk when you catch up.

You need to place a vote and I need to talk to you about where you stand.

[Gentleman 5]

G6 do you have any opinion on what L4 said about G1?

[Gentleman 6]

QUOTE IT?

[Lady 7]

Hi L7 did you see my case on G1 do you agree that he's scum

I did see your case. I skimmed your case, and in my rambly post that no-one probably read I said that it looked like a way more fleshed out explanation than my earlier thought that most of his posts were posting to post.

I do think the has a decent chance to flip scum though I did not get a chance to actually read your case and get your points.

And I was thinking earlier today that L2 might actually be scum regardless of G8's alignment, but I feel really guilty saying that and I don't know why. I started reading her iso a little bit ago to pin down why I felt that way, and I just came away feeling super bad for thinking she might be scum. I don't think she sounds manipulative or ATEy in her posts so I don't know why I feel bad thinking she's scum, but I do.

Anyway I ran out of time today, bleh.

[Lady 7]

Oh I have a question I wanted to ask before i pass out. I almost forgot.

Why is it better to leave the policy lynch pair to the first lynch after intermission? How does that help rather than taking it out early before it can do damage if you mislynch?

[Gentleman 5]

If I had to make a positive comment t about G1's posts I would say that if he were scum his buddies would probably be yelling at him to do literally anything other than what he is currently doing, yet he is still doing it.

[Gentleman 4]

Gentleman 6, would you give me a list of names in some sort of order that I can discern your read on people based off of them?

If you don't want to, that's fine, too, but I request you inform me if that's your intention.

-Gentleman 4.

G1 is definitely committed to the perpetual catchup post lifestyle. Like it could be genuine mediocre Townplay I guess but I agree it's a lot of nothing words. If he's scum, he may well see doubling down on giving reads (barely) based on material so far in the past that it's just disconnected from the entire game because he doesn't see another way into the game.

I guess what I'm saying is yeah my pair is a decent wagon, totally fair.

UNVOTE:

Thinking I need to reread G5 at least. Maybe also G4? I used to be very confident in G4 being Town. Now I'm questioning that a bit, more than I would have anticipated.

Lol L7 idk why you feel guilty about the thought that I might be scum but you shouldn't, not because I'm scum here but because whatever that's the game, in it, sometimes you think another player is scum, okay. I have some thoughts as to why actually, having said that, like I do think that we must have things in common as players in general so maybe it's partly that, like you feel guilty (irrationally) for scumreading a player you have things in common with as a player.

I don't necessarily mind being scumread and I definitely don't mind people scumreading G1 though I do think people saying blandly that lynching me would clarify some slots should think about where the valuable information would lie seeing me flip Town if we're the first lynch. Not necessarily discuss in great detail, but yeah. Information.

[Lady 8]

L8 you ever play 3 houses? Any good?

3 houses is good if you like Fire Emblem in general. I have it and it's pretty fun. Play on Hard mode though.

Although secretly prefer Advance Wars > Fire Emblem.

[Lady 7]

G1?

Who do you like from the people below him?

Oh I ask because G1 was a bit of a conundrum for me. I liked some of his posts, but his quotestripe posts didn't felt kinda commenting to comment on things, which isn't in itself scummy because most everyone does it sometimes, but since it was mostly that one posting spree that I remember, I didn't get enough to get a feel for whether it was actually alignment indicative.

I appreciate the awareness displayed here. I have noticed “posting just to post” being commonly used, it feels like it might be a new buzzword. So deciding to write a cheap idea like that off seems towny.

I don't love this right here. I mean people know when they're just posting to post, and he has to know that some of the things he's commenting on don't really move the conversation at all. Which is okay sometimes, sometimes people just post to say I agree or because they feel compelled to comment on a particular post but it doesn't actually mean anything to the thread. It's a pretty common concern to see that and think it's suspicious.

What I don't like here is him calling it a buzzword and a cheap idea while also calling me towny for the way I went about it. I don't exactly know why it bugs me the way he phrased it. Maybe because it's downplaying, my actual valid concerns, while giving me a town treat for it?

[Lady 8]

@L2:

If G1 is scum, how do you think scum is going to play around his slot?

[Gentleman 1]

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.

For a second I saw this post and had the concern that G4 has not been really following through on his questions but I remembered that was not the case on the last page.

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?

What makes you regret signing up as a Gentleman in specific?

In addition, I keep seeing G6 throwing his full weight behind trying to get me out and it makes me very concerned about his motives. As far as I am aware this idea of getting rid of my pair is rather recent. I also do not recall seeing much before the large push in the way of sentiment against me, my partner, or my pairing. Now, however, it seems like everyone is going full volume with attempts to get rid of us. It makes me distrust those efforts very much. My biggest issue is G6 in particular aiming to remove the G8/L5 pairing from discussion. I do not trust that at all, and if my pair goes I want that pair gone the next chance that comes.

[Lady 5]

I just largely by accident figured out who one of the slots that I didn't know was.

I’m willing to bet, that ones me.

[Lady 5]

OH NOW I KNOW WHO IT IS BASED ON YOUR APPROACH.

Fuck your lynch all anime avatars approach honestly.

Is this addressed towards L5? What makes you think that is her approach? It makes little sense to me based on her own avatar.

You love me don’t you?
And no it was addressed to G5 as I like Anime.

[Lady 5]

If G1 is scum, why isn't his scum team coaching him?

Maybe because him and L2 are both wolves and confused.

Regarding me: Maybe! It wasn't even a thought I had prior to today really, but I was thinking about the game at work and was like hmm L2?

Regarding G1: I'd prefer it if he got caught up and gave his reads and impressions then, but I've played enough games with Mastin to know that when people commit to this style they commit no matter how it affects the rest of the game. (Again, not a main guess, just a style similarity.)

[Lady 5]

Thought I'd beat him to it.

You lurking bruh?

[Lady 5]

NM you typed after that.

[Lady 7]

*mastina, sorry.

[Gentleman 3]

What makes you regret signing up as a Gentleman in specific?

Because I don't like making decisions lol

[Gentleman 3]

Maybe because him and L2 are both wolves and confused.

That's awfully tinfoily.

[Lady 5]

@FakeGod

Can I have an active Gentleman 8 now?
My partner has no mouth.
