The Trials - ENDGAME

[Tayl0r Swift]

I'm pretty sure I'm 0/2 for mislynching Taylor so I won't start there. She's super hard for me to sort. I always tend to SR her and be wrong so I'm laying off that one for now. But your lockdown is based on something that sounds really weak. "She didn't pocket me?" That's such a bad argument. I just don't think it's AI.

Let's start here. VOTE: Nosferatu

It is a bad argument, although I think Noraa is town.

I want to lean that way on tayl0r, but I'm not really confident on that. The effort she's putting in is a good look for her, although I believe I recall tayl0r saying high effort is NAI and low effort for her is only town.

this is true. im not sure i would call this high effort from me, but it isnt low-effort to the point where im a disengaged townie either.

[Noraa]

So there was no specific moment that this actually happened, it was just a general statement?

when I basically offered myself up for pocketing

You can't point to a place where you offered yourself up for pocketing, you're saying that you were just offered up in general by your existence in this thread?

to be fair noraa and i have been in a majority of each others games at this point i think. i cant speak for her read of me, but i feel like i can sort noraa pretty well at this point.

not majority but close enough. Im unfortunately still bad at reading you :/

[Glitch]

Do we have reason to believe that the 3 people we were forced to choose from for yesterday's elimination were all 3 town? I would be surprised if this setup forces our hand like that meaning, I expect there to be 1 scum in Nosferatu vs Goofball. I get town vibes off Goofball but haven't read anything of Nos yet.

Based on VCA FOS is on Pickaxe Pete for a constantly underwhelming vote always placed on an easy high vote wagon including prior to replacement.

You think I'm wagon voting right now?

No but could I interest you in helping me form one? Your vote is within our 2 suspected scum players based on the 3 player gladiator pool. Would you consider switching your vote to Nosferatu?

Trusting your word on a Nora alignment hinges on my read of you and I'm SO BAD at reading you as a player. Especially after our super tiny umlaut micro I'm just off my game with sorting you. I should play more games with you so I can figure you out more haha.

Fidget what was your read on Nosferatu before I entered the game?

What's the case? In the gladiate, the case on him was there was no content. I still don't see any content, although I don't really remember anything he's posted today. So why Nos, who doesn't have any content, as opposed to DGB, who has substance, some of which has made me do a double-take?

[Pickaxe Pete]

And what seminar did I miss anyway where T^T became a thing? What is it?

[Pickaxe Pete]

That came out stronger than intended. Can someone clue me in?

[Tayl0r Swift]

two cents on mechanics/theory: given that the gladiate was a one-off i dont see any particular reason to think that there was necessarily scum in the gladiate. the first trial could well have been "pick 3 people who you think are scum" and if the trial failed, then those 3 townies all become the gladiate. had there been multiple gladiates that might suggest that the trials didnt directly determine who was in the gladiate, which would imply that scum was probably in the gladiate.

[Tayl0r Swift]

not after you were so insanely rude!!!!

I think I understand this line of thought and shall agree with it

to be fair most people are very bad at reading me and usually im very highly scumread. this game has been a nice change of pace where mostly only titus scumreads me. but maybe its because im starting to get to know people and have actually played with a lot of people?

[Tayl0r Swift]

i dont like that youre so hesitant to take a stance on me here glitch.

[Titus]

I'll catch up tomorrow.

[Gypyx]

I have a few activity issue, i'll also try to catch up soon

That's fair, although you're high effort relative to the rest of us at least.

[Fidget]

Fidget what was your read on Nosferatu before I entered the game?

Early townlean for admittedly not much. I was a bit confirm biased by how BM townread him as well.

Later on when I had to review through D2 when we were locked into a gladiate, I really decided more on null. I love his vibe, but I can't really call him town just because I like the way he talks. He really doesn't have much content.

And now I find it interesting we're for the most part pretending the gladiate never happened. I am heavily conflicted, because I do think it is possible that shellyc (the player we miseliminated on the first day) got a horrible result, causing an all-town gladiate.

However, the lack of anyone really mentioning Nos or the gladiate so far and this new wagon on Marashu is enough to make me want to vote there. Marashu is similar in that I don't remember too many of his posts, but he certainly has more content than Nos. Titus has said she finds Marashu scummy and I'll definitely hear her out on it, but she never really got around to explaining why PlusJOYED was such a better option over Nos yesterday, either. Unless I missed it in which case I apologize.

I'm also feeling decentish about DGB being town, and Eddie.... well, I don't hate his exit post. I think he had questionable content that DGB was right to feel good about pushing, though.

[Tayl0r Swift]

for the record ive also asked titus to explain her scumread on marashu and havent gotten anything yet. but i agree that there really isnt anything memorable. nos is similar, and thats why ive wound up moving on.

[Vecna]

The fact that no ones really tried to solve me, sus me, or pocket me is honestly a weird feeling.
real weird :/
not sure what to think about everything considering only one slot has really interacted with me at all so far

I like your slot now

[Vecna]

probably just need to do one of these to even determine for myself where im at

pob longviywern - is this slot even in the game atm? who is playing it? no fucking idea

Titus

Fidget

I dont know whether to scumread or sheep Titus here. I sort of like Glitch's replace in. Not a lock read by any means.

Marashu/gypyx/pickaxe are all meh slots

Very few people in this game are actually at a strong townread. Everyone is sort of floating in that area where they can still be faking it. Pretty difficult game to get a read on

[Vecna]

oh right, the pob long slot was nk'd - in before im trying to force a townslip.
