Can you talk more about this?
Town!ydrasse often has analysis that digs a bit deeper than what she's done so far. I felt like her discussion with you earlier on this page was an opportunity for her to do that, and instead she gave an "I noticed that too" for your comment about me and a non-response about johnny. Not that she wouldn't have noticed a possible scummy thing I did if she was scum, but she would be less likely to point it out herself because she knows I would be sensitive to her scumreading me. As for the johnny thing, her response felt a bit overexplained, I would expect her to either just say "ok" or try to get you to explain what exactly about johnny's posting pinged you.

I liked her response to me a lot though.

in truth i’m not much interested in a johnny vote right now which is why i wanted to explain; even if it was adding some pressure i don’t think it’d bear a terrible amount of fruit. not an avenue that’s worth my attention atm

When in doubt, Hectic is always worth your attention.

VOTE: Hectic

Reviewing his start, it feels to me as though the start was dealing with the basic rote interactions with Ydrasse and I before trying to find footing elsewhere by engaging with Fidget.

I know you've said you're at work and a bit irritated, but that isn't really commenting on my point, and this was something I was genuinely interested in your thoughts on.

asking me directly will usually get better results because i often don’t respond to things that i feel aren’t for me explicitly to engage w

i had no thoughts regarding his alignment during this game and know he’s busy; our interactions felt per the norm and in general he’s being himself. nothing to glean from him until he’s able to be more active for me personally and i’d err away from voting him as is for the activity reasons as well as higher chance of being town and i can identify that when he has a real iso.

Hello, hi. I too am in this game. I am not sure how to sort Infinity and Ydra's interactions, but Ydra seems different then the scum games I have seen her in, so I think I am leaning town there

But also, there are too many people with less posts then the mod, and that is a sad thing to see.

My first question about the vote would have come regardless of what account you were under. The question about Hectic would not have.

I don't know the degree to which Infinity, Hectic, myself, your current annoyance, or simply wanting a different playstyle are factoring into that alt sentiment, but I'm not a particularly social player and the name attached means very, very little to me if that is any consolation.

That said, I hope you feel better, both in general and about playing, later on.

it’s separation from ydrasse= expression of true self / want to talk casually and socialize versus alt = play and type different enough to dissociate to avoid the mentality i currently have mostly, nothing to do with anyone else but just trying to communicate myself better

thank you be well

I feel pretty good about Lukewarm being town after 139. I skimmed the marathon run of Guardians and they feel more comfortable here. In Guardians they stuck strictly to mechanics for the first half of the game and only gradually dipped into giving reads or meaningful feedback.

We are talking about two different games. Lukewarm was scum in the recent Marathon run of Guardians.

I think it's very comparable given the realtime nature of the interaction, but we agree anyway so I won't labor it further.

I have townpings from all of Ydrasse/Prism/Infinity/Lukewarm, but those are the most active players other than myself so maybe I really am a noob

Ydrasse - Quick read drops while interacting in real-time is +town for her, the declaration of rolling town at the start, and her threats of tree haunting I all find towny

Infinity - The "Ydrasse might actually be scum" followed by the paragraph on her were towny

Prism - Lot of analysis and some meta. Good content but nothing I explicitly townrwad and that isn't fakeable for her. Tone is notably different but she says she's trying a different approach. Probably weakest townread on here

Lukewarm - Relaxed and easygoing attitude is +town
