But Yang seems less informed than Yin either way.
That would line up with how Yin seems to need to be careful with their words (and we get less of them) whereas Yang can run free, yeah

unless you mean, how do you know someone can't lie just cause they said they wont

Which is valid but also im still erring on the side of Yin not being evil because then our one source of info is just poisoned. im more predisposed to the idea that Yin is either neutral and follows a predetermined system to answer/not answer, or is both useful and not (Like, some comments are helpful but others are poisoned by mafia / or otherwise sabotaged)

Yin and Yang are two sides of the same coin

Tweetie and Isis were married during the last Silent Star.

If Yang is Isis and on our side, and Yin is the opposite of Yang..

VOTE: Tweetie!!!!!

i just realized
In post 142, Yang wrote:I don't know who the mafia are.
There's no reason to believe there are mafia in this game, yet. the only distinction Yang has made between good and evil is that goats are baddies and llamas are presumably the opposite

Although, I suppose Yang still told us that Yin is the one who will tell us how to spot the difference. And Yang being able to freely post does support uninformed. Something about the use of "mafia" is irking me though cause i dont think any Silent Star has had mafia in it.

Oh well it was werewolves vs mafia in 1 actually nvm. It was conspirators in 3 though which was messing me up. Menagerie (2) had mafia too. Mm, maybe not

That also might actually suggest Yang doesn't know about the scum though if im right and there aren't mafia. So maybe uninformed is right. Ill still keep it in the back of my mind

also Yang's list is making me too aware of the vocabulary i put forward now. :<
Eh, wunt worry abaht it t'much. Probs be nowt.
Eh, I wouldn't worry about it too much. It's probably nothing.



In post 290, NorwegianboyEE wrote:Yin: reluctant to share information. Only speaks in riddles. Seems to know a lot more than he lets on.
Yang: Quite talkative, open with their thoughts. Uninformed.
Two sides of the coin, all in balance.
One is order, the other is chaos.
Neither is evil, you just need to be careful what you ask.
Chaos will deliberately answer around you, Order won't always give a direct answer, but it will be an answer that is given.

Because of whats been asked and answered so far.
Honestly we could've worked this out with 2 questions and I messed mine up slightly.

In post 251, Robert M Hunter wrote:1. awkward joke trying to get Ydrasse to talk about scum!norwee.
2. challenging Pooky's town read on a player because it's a bit early.
3. prompting and encouraging Satoru to talk about a scum read on Flea.
1. it was not a joke. i thought ydrasse's early vote on norwee was serious (at least as much as an early vote like that can be). when she told me she wouldn't seriously vote norwee for the reason she gave, i just told her i didn't know that.
2. what pooky said - this is a datisi alt. (though i kinda wished to not have it mentioned that fast...)
3. yeah. i was getting scumpings on flea. i wanted to talk about it with another player who said they got the same pings.
In post 251, Robert M Hunter wrote:Three things meant to erode town reads and promote scum reads, because there's nothing that scum hates more than townies with under-developped scum reads on other townies, and strong town reads on townies.

If Tanner flips scum, then Norwee is town, Datisi is town, and Flea is town.
i mean, 1. is saying i didn't know how ydrasse reads norwee, and 2. is eroding a townread on myself... and even if the 3. were correct, i'm literally just talking about a ping i got. and considering i did out some townpings earlier (and one of them was on *you*, so from your pov you'd surely know it can't be scum!me being an idiot just townreading partners and scumreading all townies), this feels confbiased, if not intentionally malicious.
In post 253, Robert M Hunter wrote:
In post 224, Tanner wrote:my early game is weak
Pre-emptive excuse for future scummy play.
...it's the exact opposite? like i'm saying "i struggle in early game when it's mostly rvs, but when the game gets serious, i'll get more townie as i'll actually have something to work with". that's not a pre-emptive excuse for my future scummy play, it's setting expectations for my future townie play.

i don't like these posts from robert. i can understand some early scumreads on myself (i'll be first to tell you i have not gotten into the game yet), but both and feel like throwing shit and seeing what sticks. the "future excuse for scummy play" line legitimately makes no sense. also, the "what" in , considering it was followed by no re-evaluation, kinda feels like scum who got caught not knowing what to do now that their point against their "scumread" was proven false, rather than a townie organically reacting to the development.
