@Silver Bullet do you also scumread insomnia or is that just Hectic?

Or more generally speaking can you tell me how do you individually feel about insomnia?

-Farkran

I think scum!insomnia tries to use his ability to make good in real time interactions in order to get townreads. I don't feel like he's doing that right now!

- Silver Bullet

So, if you wanted to change your vote, who would you aim at?

-Farkran

First and foremost,

@Silver Bullet

you didn't answer this, and i'm still interested in learning your answer.

I mean, Hectic is posting through pictures, regardless of whether the post restriction is real or not, and he's still producing more solve attempts than you. I'll reiterate that this is one major reason for townreading the cappy slot - i could see self-imposing a false restriction to avoid producing reads and content as scum, but that's definitely not what hectic is doing here. People pushing cappy have to tell me why.

-Farkran

Sorry, didn't see that!

We're discussing our reads on discord before posting them here to avoid hydra's dissonance to play as one as much as possible. I can share what I have seen so far, sure! Latios and Latias is town, Chem feels relaxed and Gamma is not trying to look serious; Taly's first wallpost (and now the one with him talking about selfmeta) comes from town, and I like that he's townreading Titus 'cause I had the same impression and we want to build a townblock with them. I like your hydra too because of a readlist you made that felt genuine and not trying to position yourself in the game in a good spot. Flavor Town I'd like to call them town because FL tries to be very active really early into the game and later dissapear, and he has no thread presence overall.

If I changed our vote it would be probably on Smol Might.

Also, wrt people pushing us: I don't think anyone is pushing us? I think people have different opinions about Hectic's PR which to me is pretty lazy, since Hectic can post text in the images and it's pretty much the same as posting normally, so trying to sort our slot only if the PR is real or not is boring. And it's weird that people assume "it's real" or "it's fake" based on nothing; I don't have a PR, you could ask me if you really wanted to know, you know!

the hydra that has the terrifying version of mario for an avi

This is up to debate for everyone! I'll give $25 to the first with the right answer!

Is our avatar Kirby or Mario? Why?

- Silver Bullet

It's a Kirby that inhaled Mario and took his Copy Ability

-Latios

Wrong!

Damn it I wanted to do the same joke and forgot to do it

[Spiffybringer]

still remarkably early in the game but please explain either of these main thoughts
really didn't expect to be on such a different wavelength from you regardless of your alignment

I have nothing more to really elaborate with

The post you quoted of mine was #187, do you really expect us to be so in sync that early on?

Following this:

VOTE: Smol Might

[Spiffybringer]

I think I'm going to pretend the shop/events aspect of this game doesn't exist because otherwise I will get overwhelmed

In other news I have two secret scum reads so I feel productive, bye for now

~Spiffeh

the fun of hiding these has passed long ago since I'm so slow to roll - what were they???

Imperium and Equitable Androids

Feel better about Equitable Androids after Titus' posting

Imperium... remains to be seen

With the realization that Blake = Ankamius I think Blake x Yang is very likely Town

VOTE: Spiffybringer

Latias town read is a really easy one to fabricate as well as weasel out of. I don't think a horrible ISO is disregarded just because someone is talking about inning an event.

I think you have overestimated the devotion to my initial read on Latias/Latios. My reads are going to be pretty fluid, especially early on. I felt Latias/Latios had the worst ISO at the time but nothing I could explicitly call scummy. Their later posts like the ones I quoted exhibited a pretty casual attitude surrounding the event which I find more likely to come from town than scum.

~Spiffy

[Spiffybringer]

If that is insomnia l think you should be aware of the fact that my early reads can change on a dime based on Titus v. Alisae?

~Spiffy

Why?

-Blake

I feel like I say this in every game we're in together but I historically I have a decent track record accurately scum-reading you and I don't get the ~feeling~ of artificiality that I get from your scum games.

~Spiffy

[Blake X Yang]

Blake meta is quite different from Alyssa meta.

I would caution against merging the two.

-Blake

[Spiffybringer]

I think all the Imperium town reads are a little premature based on what they've provided so far? I'm hoping once Tammy gets more of a foothold on the game I can get a solid read there.

More Smol Might votes pls

I would advise against townreading lengthy posts, unless the content is worthy of being townread. I believe Blake/Yang have been assessing the gamestate and noticed that there was shade consensus building around our slot (from despair, imperium, black hole) and threw a vote in our direction believing the wagon would develop, without exploring their nullreads/scumreads first. The slot who has been pushing stronger is actually blake - i would expect taly, who has no experience with me, but ank has always read me correctly as town and it feels really off to see them failing their analysis of me after we have been playing and talking a lot recently.

Do you think i am wrong? Question @everyone actually, not just cappy.

-Farkran

pedit @blake: different meta from blake or alyssa have no inference on your read accuracy around me, unless you are saying that ankamius is a good reader and blake isn't, which would be nonsensical. You may change personality and modus operandi by switching accounts, you do not change your accuracy rating.

~Spiffy

For instance, talk to me about this. Where do i look to see towniness in Blake iso?

-Farkran

[Cappy]

More Smol Might votes pls

~Spiffy

Funny, didn't notice you were voting them too, just saw your post about them and what Hectic and I discussed was almost the same points you made.

I didn't like your stance on Latias and Latios, but you could be cool after all.
