Yeah that's almost certainly going to earn my vote sorry, but will again hold off until I'm ready to do more tomorrow.

It's movie time, if you see me playing mafia tell me to go away.

@Sangres,
f you played with somebody 3 times in a row and they were scum every time and in the next game they played with you they used the same patterns of thinking, speaking and strategies littered throughout the game, would you town read them?
I've seen everything Mathblade has to offer as scum.

Nothing he's done has moved me off of him because everything he's doing is the same as before.
His house of cards on the Doc read lacked cohesiveness. There was no, Bell seems town to based on posting and that he crumbed doc. It was just that I crumbed Doc and therefore he's my friend because he's town too. The second that collapse he just latched on to the next thing and did an interest check on a Bell wagon.

If Math is scum here, you just fell for those tricks and strategies that he uses to fake a town mindset and earn a town read.
If Math is town, I'm just too stuck on shallow pattern recognition like I was with Shellyc. I wish I could recognize depth to his thinking, but it looks shallow to me.

As for Dunnstrall, I remain totally unmoved by any argument made about it because he hasn't done a single scummy thing this game. Spiffeh's argument that he's been disappointing isn't the first nor the last time Dunnstrall will have been called scum for playing anemically day 1.

I'd give the odds of him flipping scum 4/17, probably less just because the only person arguing against the wagon is a townsperson.

Bell,

Nacho's gone for the night and I'm not far behind.

This is not falling on deaf ears.

The quick polarizations in this game make me nervous. I'd love to hash out thoughts on some other players tomorrow if you'll be around. Maybe battle mage, Titus and Kitty Trauma Team as a start?

In post 700, Lady Lambdadelta wrote:Hey folks, quick skill testing question

do you think scum get to see what the mechanics of the 2 artefacts they have to choose between are before they ship them?

If yes, is there any downside to me hardclaimign the full effects of the artefact?

If no, is it worth hardclaiming it in certain circumstances anyway
If it’s what I think it is, guessing on flavor, claiming it then passing it on to someone in secret (like if you are a mason buddy to them) or a top town read is best. Then if scum attempt to kill the person who got the artifact they can’t stop the power. Right now the power is too concentrated if you’re town mason. But then again I doubt you are so...but I will continue to pretend ;)

However if you intend on using it I wouldn’t claim it so scum don’t know how to stop it if they can stop it.

It depends on what you do LLD.

Sure. I'm not sure how much I'll be around though. These last three days I had spare time. But I'm skeptical It'll remain that way for long.

As to your primary question I think we need a scum flip to determine what scum know and then wifom their response.

As I think this game is very close to PR less without artifacts based on scum picking one mechanic my guess is they do and almost all the powers would be artifacts.

No I still townread you.

I was interest checking you as a townblock silly :P

Like what?

And clearly I don’t think LLD is a mason and neither should town ;) ;) LLD is clearly faking it. I mean who claims masons on d1 against Prism? C’mon y’all.

Clearly you can’t read intonation AT ALL which makes me harden down on my scumread of you.

LLD is absolutely
NOT

Don’t make me case that and just sheep it. She can still be town though.

Don’t need to. I am town and have different tunnels monsieur.

I am playing for reactions. I give 0 fucks if I live beyond today.

My job is to set town up to be better. If that requires my death so be it.

When we played together in the game I tunneled you different circumstances mister.

Of those three reads, quiet's read and basis was the most unexpected to me.

If it was Prism's read that bothered you, I don't understand why you didn't push him for more reasoning then.
