frankly i get a different answer every time i go back and look at that slot. let me see if i can find a summary of the last time I did.

I still feel like the reaction to nm/bulge suggests a world where if nm and bulge are both scum that DC is town just because of how vehemently and instantly they reacted to the switchover.

I can't read The Bulge despite him deciding to play like a 5th grader at a summer camp but I think NM is again very intentionally not giving anything or interacting much, ie. Waiting to hammer or get flipped

Not in a trolling way

On my phone atm sorry

lilith, i think mena looked genuine in the page 56 range (that is what my is about), other than that and i don't really have much. I'm proxying the read a little to skitter who seems comfortable w/ mena.

I need to reread the stuff that happened right around - this is when peta started the mom wagon, which DC was initially opposed to, culminating in when they hopped on.

What are your thoughts?

this would be better if i knew what mom was. if mom is town DC looks a little worse, although they got on right after you did which kind of supports the "I'm lookiing just for a compromise that isn't nacho" angle which could come from town, even if mara is also town.

Yeah, I still think I agree with this. I think I also want to flip NM today.

if NM were to flip town at this point or bulge flip scum, i'd probably feel better about noddy/infinity/vft block overall (my strongest TRs over the game)

if nm flipped scum, it's probably neutral wrt to those three.

If bulge flips town, and especially if nm flips scum later, there's a major problem w/ my reads somewhere

They were a scumlean for me for awhile because I thought skitter's read on me was vague/lacking, followups were not at all to me liking and I didn't like that there was no followthrough with disliking the individual Cakez/notsci pushes

I still think that but in 2181 skitter pulled similar wack shortcuts that didn't work

I have literally been waiting for Persona 5 at least a decade, if not more

I refused to play any games made after 2011 just for fun for the full 10 years, got so hype for the announcement, acquired a PS4 just for this fuckin game and now it's finally fuckin time

i am hugely taken in by "your strength of read is not commensurate with the things that have actually happened" arguments that skitter makes because it's often what I am also thinking, and that is how I felt about how you dealt w/ noddy out of the gate, at least a little.

Maybe you're right on the tone stuff being her scum superpower, but I really felt like skitter was excited to find out I was me, because it made her job of reading me very very easy and I thought that came out in her

When I say "followthrough" on the Cakez/notsci pushes, I mean something like wondering to herself "Why on earth would she swap like that? This is scummy, what was the timing?" or similar

Do as you will, I am not standing in your way. Judging you and your play is part of the game and it's not personal.

For my part, I am no longer attempting to really spur you towards correct play. I am currently voting NM. This means you don't have me breathing down your neck, and you have true freedom to get grounded or whatever you like; use it how you please.

ie. What I just said is offensive, but I want to be very explicit that if what you want is me off your back, you have it and the freedom that entails.
