1) Skull for design elagence, Cosmic Encounter for fun and replayability, A Feast for Odin for big box deep strategy vibes

Well that was close

meh bob I’ll trust your judgement and I know your read accuracy is pretty high

the first time I saw ydrasse post I pretty much had the same reaction as bob, just I have logical lapses in that I cant really detail all my thought processes

Parse text, as in read and analyze it. I was not capa8le of such a task this morning.

UNVOTE:
With so much to read, I assume we are past RVS, so I will retract this.

Yes, it is. Also, call me AG for short.

In post 119, osuka wrote: can you please stop coloring your posts? it's giving me a scratch at the roof of my mouth i can only seem to scratch with a shotgun
No.

So, that was something to read. In my quite inexperienced opinion, I don't think all that pressure on Ydrasse really revealed anything. I really don't have any leans as it is right now. I want to trust Ydrasse, 8ut I can't vouch for her 8ehavior on other games.

Why do you want to trust ydrasse if you don’t have a meta read on them?

is that gut?

Ydrasse pressure -> pooky interactions with me and ydrasse -> osuka interactions saying that case is bad = moving out of RVS.

ftr fence-sitting is quite the newbscum tell so don’t know what to make out of this yet

do you have any more, no matter if they are alignment indicative or reads or what not, thoughts on the interactions?

Shelly is pinging me quite hard atm, and it's not particularly because of the push on ydrasse but more the mild hostility that she seems to be expressing as well as which i saw as a weird distancing from her previous reads to instead just trust what bob says. her entire interactions with pooky and ydrasse feel off, so let's go with a VOTE: shellyc. osuka seems quite genuine here, as does BM, and i have a townlean on pooky for that RQS; null on everyone else atm.

regarding the prodding lurkers to give their thoughts I see scum doing it more than town, its a very lamist-y thing but feel free to disagree
O
Didnt realize you had those reads. My reads come from reading the general gist of pooky and bms posts, but osukas posting has been very similar to pookys posting last i played with him where he rolled town.

yes its very strange and not like shelly at all - that said, i know shelly is trying to be less agressive and overconfident, so ill give her a pass somewhat because it could be her trying to figure out how to chill out and re-evaluate.

explain the bold. As i dont see her distancing from her own reads. At most shelly is saying that she trust me when i say that the start of day one is best used to town hunt.

hm, maybe i'm mistaken about that part? 227 looked like to me a "okay i'll stop pushing ydrasse because i trust bob" which feels off to me in a game where she hasn't said she TRs you and she shouldn't be explicitly trusting people this early into d1. dk, felt off to me.

im sorry that im overexcited with this plist, and I would like to make it clear that im not trying to strategically play in an anti-town way.

pooky we seem to have different ideas of what reaction testing even is, and im just going to leave it at that.
I really really hate D1 death-tunnels esp early in the game.

I had the unfortunate experience of playing against a D1 death-tunnel a few months ago and it was one of the worst experiences I can remember on this site - it was TvT and we ended up losing badly because death tunnels really suck.

They are a very easy way to play the game and a great emotional outlet but they are also negative EV, suck a ton of energy out of the game and are just generally unpleasant.
Preach brother! I had a similar one at that time (maybe it was the same player? i legit recall him telling me that you were his hero). I just couldn't talk the guy round, and eventually he replaced out after like 40 pages of crap. we still lost. :lol:

That said, I've been on the other end of it too. You're right though, it's bad practice.

1) what makes post 31 awkward? i don't really see how it feels out of place.

2) the way you're viewing post 42 feels at odds with your view on post 39. isn't midway outing a towny gutread being liberal with his allegiences?
which is almost verbatim what you’re doing now

pedit: pushing is my go-to way of solving, have faith in my pushes
i read the quote before i read the rest of the post, and spent time trying to figure out why the hell midwaybear and blair were in this game. :lol:
