No clue, I'm just going to play it with some buddies, and I'm sure it'll be fun. It'll be like a different game, though.

She's new, I don't really know much of her.

Anivia just kind of happened for me. I used to play a lot, I was Gold in Season 4, but that's the best I've ever been. She was really strong one patch, and then I realized I have the correct type of positioning to be able to play her well. She's like my 3rd, but I saw tier lists say TF and Ziggs were pretty low right now, and I hadn't played Articuno in years.

I'm pretty good at TFT, I haven't played much of it, but I'm naturally pretty good at that kind of game.
yesssss

we need a Hectic vs FL TFT match

I shall be your sword FL

we will crush plumber boy

They're not scumhunting.
I don't have an indepth assertion of their slot because this game isn't providing intricate tells, so a lot of what I consider is based at a surface level. None of their posts as of late indicate they want to talk about anything but themselves and how much they should be townread. It is in fact doing the opposite for me.
:roll:

Are you blind? I’ve been very clearly sorting and making reads.
So about the gamma thought then...

My buddies all play Legends of Runeterra right now, which I think is a good game, but the card style really isn't that much for me, even though I'm pretty good with deck building

In post 1890, unwnd wrote:That's a very circumstantial and a bit uninformed look about our interactions, I don't know why you made assumptions based on one or two instances of dialogue, given there is more to it. I've asked her to clarify on her reads (and other things such as her 'THERE MUST BE SCUM IN THE GAMMA VOTES') and instead she just goes back to essentially 'well you should townread me and im obvtown' you can see this for yourself. As for why I try to appease to her and say 'im not scumreading you for being nancy and I can't read AtE'? Should explain itself. At some point I have to make a logical conclusion that there is ulterior motive and that she is having trouble faking reads, so to make up for that she just ignores the necessity to do so.
I might have some bias given that I've played a lot with Nancy and feel like I have a pretty good idea of how to read her and also how to get her to produce content.

But I will say the 'well you should townread me and im obvtown' is largely alignment indicative, but comes out much more and with much fuller force when she's town. Mostly because I think she has trouble lying about things like that. There have been a few times as scum where Nancy has just dodged the question when I've straight up asked "should I be town reading you," which is why I'm town leaning the slot so far this game.

I think you'll find Auro to be the more readable part of the hydra from your perspective. I admit I still haven't read everything but have you interacted with that part of the hydra at all yet?

In post 1874, Dannflor wrote:I feel like a lot of what you're doing around the slot is not very genuine? Like I understand people having personality clashes with the slot and not really understanding how they tend to function, but skitter has told you multiple times that Nancy's rather reactive reads aren't AI indicative for the slot, so your repeated efforts to try and get something else out the slot feel like busywork.

Like the quality of them not wanting to "talk about anything but themselves and how much they should be townread" is not a basis for a scum read on that slot, something skitter knows and has tried to tell you multiple times. The reason I'm so wary is Nancy is a very easy scum read to hold because of how reactive she can be to reads on her. I don't really get the sense from your prodding of the slot that you're trying to solve the slot by getting their opinions on other people.

Instead you're doing this LAMISTy thing where you tell them to solve and not worry about reads on them instead of like... actually digging deeper into your scum read on them?

If you haven't encountered this type of player before I understand having an aversion to the slot at first, but it seems like you're using a shallow first impression to push a scum read instead of going any number of levels deeper
Told you all, Dann is town. :)

Nancy the only time I've seen you make a read thus far is if

1) The person interacts with you in some sort of way
2) The read is made in relation to how the person is reading your slot

Where is the drive to just go and find reads, or interact with people without being prompted? Literally, all of your posts thus far have been just
responding to people.

also again unwnd i agree that your points are totally valid but it's nai for her
I don't really have a read on you and I'm not foolish enough to try and form one based off the few posts I've read from you.

I don't feel I'm going to have a read on you for a while
