i’m p sure pooky always flips town this game which is a relief because i rarely feel like i can say that and i’m sick of being paranoid about my homies every game

To be clear, this is an independent read, and not based on the fact that you scumread us and don't think we are S/S with him, right?

Can you give us the tl;dr?

i spectated a lot of games on em before i played the few i did. i didn’t join them for personal reasons nor the spec chats but i kept up with them as they’re a lot of the reason why i’m here playing now

Ha, okay. I think you did mention similar to me once. I don't want to be weird about it I was just squinting for a sec cuz you described her play I think pretty well and in particular how she might play with me at the table and I couldn't recall a time we'd all played together.

But nothing you said seemed wrong and I think additionally you put words to something I was struggling to which was that she actually didn't engage me as directly as I think she would have as scum and was comfortable enough to do her own thing. At the risk of revealing my hand for future games, I think as scum she might actually engage with me more directly and try to "neutralize" me, in a similar fashion to how I engaged Koba in that newbie game we played a million years ago.

jsyk i'm basically ignoring mastina's reads list because they're tedious. I could see her as scum but I'm also shit at mafia so who knows.

[Vaxkiller]

huh

i guess this setup means bussing kinda sucks

Yeah I think so

Lowkey, putting aside any changes the new method of role distribution may fuck it up, I think this setup is pretty townsided

Didnt scum win the last one?

[Cephrir]

so?

[samantha97]

I'm not gonna write a playbook for them by elaborating but this seems very mafia-sided to me

i think dcl left all their games so i don't find their replacement ai. i find it a little scummy players reading it as such.

i think marry and pooky if scum together don't do this husband wife thing i could be wrong but it's pretty ballsy

jsyk i'm basically ignoring mastina's reads list because they're tedious. I could see her as scum but I'm also shit at mafia so who knows.

this is a mood

[Vaxkiller]

so?

Good point, that doesn't prove anything.

Still, I don't really see how it's so town sided. Seems like a good mafia plan is to hold onto ur nukes until the end.

[Vaxkiller]

EDIT to clarify

Scum winning doesnt prove its a fair setup. Agree.

It seems pretty similar to the heavy flirting that Pooky and Kanna did as scum in the Team Mafia large theme. (Though, they did know each other already, but I don't think it's out of the question for how Pooky operates as scum.)

Thank you et al for filling out form 3269-J. Your request for more information has been received. We can now share this partial report.

MAYBE IM LYING TO YOU SO THAT YOU DONT NIGHT KILL ME SO I WILL HAVE THE CHANCE TO NUKE YOU

NOBODY TAKE ME SERIOUSLY WHEN I SAY PEOPLE ARE TOWN

EXCEPT MARRY

MY WIFE HAS TO BE GOOD

HER APPLE PIE IS DELICIOUS

REDACTED REDACTED
For now, I'm town reading this post. The "NOBODY TAKE ME SERIOUSLY WHEN I SAY PEOPLE ARE TOWN" seems like a town slip, he is saying to people, "Hey I'm just fucking around over here, please don't take these as real reads"

it’s both; when i’m home i’ll quote the post that i thought was logically sound from pooky, but in general i don’t think he points out some of the things he does as scum because it backs him into a corner

and your interactions regarding him feel just... i don’t get how they happen if you’re town and pookys scum.

i want to ask, to clarify: how exactly is pooky setting up your slot to get lolnuked? i think that if pooky is scum he’s probably going to go abm after this just to meme you guys tbh and that doesn’t seem connected to what he’s been saying

Why would scum!pooky care how ppl take his town reads? He could have just continued to post in the same manner. It was a glimpse of the real pooky.

[Vaxkiller]

Great, now i leaked info without a form. My boss is going to have a word with me.

Requesting to hire cephir as one of my top agents.

Right, Pooky-scum never backs himself into a corner, that would be ridiculous.

Fwiw I think this read would be dead-on if use on, like, 95% of players, but Pooky has a really ballsy scumgame. How much does this read take meta into account?

THAT SAID, I do think he's right that he isn't setting up to nuke us and get away with it because we'd always nuke him back. I think if he's scum he's just antagonizing us for the hell of it and/or because he thinks it will look towny.

[Et Al]

I guess?

I mean as scum he could be trying to keep himself from having to commit to townreads which would enable him to reverse his reads if he found it convenient.

[Cephrir]

i don't think pooky has posted anything alignment indicative but i would like him to continue to be alive anyway because he's entertaining
