Mini Normal 2249 | The Fish in the Sea | Game Over

[Gamma Emerald]

I'm gonna go on a surface level/tone/gut reads for myself for the rest of Day 1

Dwlee
Andante
SS
Azaariah
Hella Jeff

This is my Day 1 TownBlock.


Almost50/Gamma Emerald - Don't believe they are both scum, it's possible neither. unfortunately, they are so tied together in my head, they have canceled each other out for me.

geraintm
Holiday
osuka
T3
NorwegianBoyEE

at least 2 scum in that bottom 5.

These seem solid
I might be wrong on a TR but I don’t think HJ is the one I’m wrong on here

[Gamma Emerald]

The tempo of the game doesn’t match the info ._.

How so

[NorwegianboyEE]

As in i have no idea what the current VC is most of the time.

[April Ludgate]

What is the meaning of slingshot here?

pretty much empowering another player with support

[April Ludgate]

I think April’s townreads (just them) are fine and i don’t agree with me being scum obviously.
And i don’t think they are all good enough for a townblock.

you arent really a scum read, just not in the day 1 town block.

and i think theyre plenty fine to be in a day 1 townblock, doesn't mean theyll last after information

i like to deal with pools over reads

[Almost50]

placeholder to look at said VC when Meg does post it

[NorwegianboyEE]

Looks like the top two wagons should both have 4 votes.

[T3]

Town

Why...?

That just doesn’t seem like a scum comment to make
Nothing really further than that.

[NorwegianboyEE]

I think it’s an interesting dynamic that April is saying he wants to support S_S.
It makes me feel like i should have a better read on S_S in general.

[Something_Smart]

I'm kind of a terrible player to slingshot on D1 though.

I'll take townreads of course, but I don't feel that he truly townreads me (at least in my understanding of the word).

[osuka]

oh boy i have 16 pages to catch up on, fuck this noise

thankfully i can speed read and type really fast so it should only take 1 hour 16 minutes to get it done

[osuka]

hnghhhhhh
I can’t find anything actually AI from osuka’s catchup

nothing i do is ai

weve played together before, you should know better than to try to read me

[osuka]

did someone just alt slip with another alt? what on earth?

what the fuck is my life

The first line mentions login issues, idk why that account is the one working for them but lolk

still leaves unanswered the question of who the fuck is it?

I could probably find out if I read for (A) context and (B) posting style, but I'm not gonna cuz I don't feel like it. The same goes for Jeff having mentioned a game he was in. I simply won't be bothered trying to alt hunt at this time.

Disclaimer: there's also the non-zero chance that the post wasn't even meant to be posted in this game/thread, so that could nullify the context part, and being an alt may nullify the style part, so what's the point?

i dont care about alt hunting but i do need to know who posted that because it's game content and if people come in and start posting in random accounts then the whole thing goes to shit instantly

reveal yourself

[NorwegianboyEE]

reveal yourself

Dude, not cool.
It's not up to you to decide that.

[osuka]

paula + norwegian

Who is Paula

We had the exact opposite reaction about doulas post.

should i just assume that anything close-ish to "paula" refers to me?

i think it's me

[osuka]

i love how a50 is just straight shitposting now, i'm about it

[Something_Smart]

oh boy i have 16 pages to catch up on, fuck this noise

thankfully i can speed read and type really fast so it should only take 1 hour 16 minutes to get it done

lmao

[Something_Smart]

He's talking about the alt slip. I don't think he got to the point where Aza claimed it yet.

[Azaariah]

i've reread some things and i think that geraint is probably town though i simply don't agree with them. if this play is normal for them, which many people has said that, he does seem very relaxed here which is a somewhat reliable towntell.

almost50 i have always felt was town but i don't object to this wagon if it will be a problem to leave them later on in the game. it seems to me like t3 is a better slot to elim simply because we never leave a slot like that later in the game. it's better to get a flip and move on. i realize i said something similar about andante but that's actually different because i think andante has been very obvious town since getting back to the thread.

im feeling bad about the holiday townread now but i honestly cannot tell if that's just because april has me head over heels for them.

i think im willing to be certain on a norwegianboy townread now. he does a lot of things that just don't feel like scum. the tone is just so towny in a way that i cant explain but im certain is town. this is similar to the feeling i had around holiday but i tend to feel that way about players that think similar things to me but that would happen regardless of their alignment. but norwegian boy does not agree with me on things so i think im confident in saying he is town because of this feeling.

dwlee's progression on me isn't there. i think it looks pretty bad for scum to just suddenly switch a read they've had for the first 50 pages of a game when the person is going under pressure because it looks really bad post flip so i'd say that is town though i disapprove of the content itself.

im still happy with my something_smart townread. i highly doubt this is wrong just because they don't feel like scum.

april scares me and im not sure why. i feel like they are a player that could easily pocket me and that's unsettling to me. im not willing to give a townread though i really want to.

everyone else i just dont really have a read on them. i see their posts but nothing really stands out and makes me think anything about their alignment

[osuka]

i've been reading but have had a very empty head for quite some time now. i don't know what to make of my wagon or the game after thinking andante was definitely scum for such a long time. i originally thought that andante and april were scum together. i kept saying that andante scum cleared april because i really wanted to see people's reactions to that and to see if i could get scum to bus andante in return for a hard townread on april who seems like a strong player (everyone seems to know them for some reason?). obviously, i can't prove that but you can really see the difference in passion between that read which i repeated in two really thin posts as compared to my andante read. i was really deep in that tunnel and now that i dont think it's correct, i don't know what to think about the game. im afraid to commit to any reads because my brain knows andante isn't scum but im still clinging on to that thought.

i keep wanting to just reply to osuka's long post the way he's been replying to my posts out of frustration but i know it doesn't help. there is no case on me and i don't know what to do about that. i don't know what im doing and this is kind of where i am. i guess this will sound like im lost but im not. im just processing and waiting.

reply however you want, just make sure you reply at some point because barring someone fucking up worse than that, i'm not moving my vote off you until either of us die or i get a Good Enough(tm) reply from you

[osuka]

sorry to hear that osuka, hope you feel better soon!

it passed so were big chilling now, very cash money

time to catch some scumfuck

[Azaariah]

basically this is where I'm at:
definitely Town:
norwegianboy
something_smart
andante

probably town:
geraintm
almost50
dwlee

hopefully town:
april

very conflicted:
holiday

somewhere floating in space:
everyone else

[Hella Jeff]

yeah it's in that 16 page range

thinking abt the wagons i'd be voting t3 right now. maybe my vote does end there by the end of the day because it helps me read norwee which is one of the only people whose alignment i can't point to on a scale.
used to be a hard scumread, then they posted really well and i'm continuing to wonder where it came from. lots of work to do this weekend
