Perfect Masquerade [Game Over]

[Lady 9]

I still think it's L2. I don't think town plays this the way she did.

[Lady 9]

On the off chance that she's town here, then it would have to be g1. But whoever is town in their pair will need to leave if we're doing this, or self vote, if you also vote them G2

[Lady 9]

Are you sticking around right now G2?

[Lady 9]

How much of the game have you read?

[Lady 2]

on G2's instruction i'll leave. i'm around til deadline. i think it's l9 but if he absolutely disagrees, i'd rather take the chance on flipping g1 than lose.

[Lady 2]

Just so the seriousness is known..my pred implored me to convince G2 to leave at any costs like she was all but 100% sure L9 was scum. Wasn't as sure on the partner but was pinged by L5 (I definitely had a worse impression from L5 than she did; v much my misread). I do think L9 looks s/s with G8. I don't think G1 is driving an agenda but he's really fucking complacent here, I didn't like the way he jumped into out pt, and I'm not completely convinced it's not just him

That being said
I want L9 quite a lot more


But that's impossible without G2's support. And I will not deadline this without taking a chance on G1 being the last scum.

[Gentleman 2]

I'm here

[Lady 2]

Hi here

[Lady 2]

You ready/ish to make a call?

[Gentleman 2]

on G2's instruction i'll leave. i'm around til deadline. i think it's l9 but if he absolutely disagrees, i'd rather take the chance on flipping g1 than lose.

Would g1 do the same?

[Gentleman 1]

How does this work if i think that scum is in g1/l2?

Like to lynch there we need 3 votes, or they would have to leave right?

Is this what you are thinking? If so please walk me through it. Your opinion is most important so you need to make it clear.

[Lady 2]

He hasn't really said; I considered reaction testing him but I remembered the only way I could actually valuably do that would result in us both leaving... : / it's hard to test survivalism.

Our pt hasn't been super spicy tbh

[Gentleman 2]

G1 read faster.

[Lady 2]

I'm sorry I'm not as into this as my previous form was - but - anything you want to talk through g2?

[Gentleman 2]

Nah, I think I know what I'm going to do. I just wanna hear from g1 first.

[Gentleman 1]

on G2's instruction i'll leave. i'm around til deadline. i think it's l9 but if he absolutely disagrees, i'd rather take the chance on flipping g1 than lose.

Would g1 do the same?

We have not been using our PT since the G8/L5 flip, so I have to speak for myself here, but I honestly at this point very much doubt L9’s motives so at least for now I am not leaving. L9’s only has to keep you on their side here if she is scum, while L2 or I would have to keep the other part of the pair in check. I feel like L9 is doing their best to cast doubt on both of us to get one of us to fold to her will.

[Lady 2]

Alright. I'm going to keep checking in man. If you're anxious, just talk through stuff.

pedit: oh yeah for posterity I basically strongarmed G1 into ignoring the pt; he wanted to talk more in there but I think pts are kinda dangerous in a vanilla XyLo where everything we think *should* be public sans like literally gambits

Everyone, I will not be outing the main accounts. It's up to you to out your main account.

I ran the anonymous dance game because someone brought up that these dance setups have been affected too much by meta, and I sought to build a game that would not be affected by any previous player histories. Unfortunately, it seems that many of you were able to guess the main identities of the other players as the game progressed. I wonder if it is truly able to have a game on this site that is completely free from meta influence. I would also like to thank each of the replacements who stepped up when I needed them. This game couldn't have continued without you, and I am very thankful for everyone who replaced in so promptly. After half of the town imploded in First Dance, and we were going into Second Dance with 3 scum, one of whom was paired to the IC, I thought for sure that scum was going to win this game, but Lady 2 slot really played her heart out as the game neared its conclusion and managed to convince Gentleman 2 to leave the dance, cinching the win. I would like to applaud both the town and mafia for a well played game.

Great job Gentleman 2, Lady 2, and Gentleman 1!

[OkaPoka]

EVERYBODY DANCE NOW

[RadiantCowbells]

i'm amazed that town

1) threw away the two most obviously T-T pairings in me/L8 and G3/L6
2) paired the towniest lady in the game and the IC with scum

and still won

good job everyone left at the end, especially duckling with the rep in

[Tammy]

YAYAYAYAY!

Thank you for running it FakeGod!

I had a lot of fun. It was a nice first game back
