I don't have any comment on her play this game. I am swamped right now between my V/LA, work, my grad school applications, and other commitments. I know I need to, but rotating priorities and such. (And I will take appropriate action if the level of dedication continues to lower.)

As players, though, I think you'd make an unusually good fit. You both enjoy a lot of levity in games, you both enjoy private topics a lot, and Ydrasse generally struggles to keep motivation, especially as town when she doesn't have the weight of the team on her (fucking shredded) shoulders. She takes a very tonal approach to reads but is definitely capable of more analytical analysis, while I think you're the perfect inverse.

I think you'll both have fun, we'll get more content out of it, and I think you'd be complementary pieces in style. I do have concerns about blindspots (Ex. She gets a wrong read, you latch on and grab the chariot+sword of fire, and off to the races both of you go) but the same or worse is true of every pairing.

I am honestly surprised that cat hasn't latched onto a scumread of me for the low effort; constant delays and indifference to play is historically an exclusively scum move for me. My motivation as town can flag but I am nowhere close to even meeting the baseline, and I'm surprised he hasn't commented on it.

It's bad logic. If anything, the inverse should be true?

I mean if you're scum!LLD and town!marci proposes to you, do you want to accept that pairing? Marci is pretty high on the "likely to be limmed" list and LLD is scum I would think has good odds of going deep

I also don't really know what LLD's read on marci is. if town!LLD townreads marci, why not pair with marci? if town!LLD scumreads marci, why not pair with marci and volunteer to be limmed/leave? that's what I would do

also, I just don't feel like it's all that likely that both are town given the number of my other townreads and my sense of the gamestate at the moment. if they are then I'm definitely suckered somewhere, but again, don't see why town!LLD can't accept a marci proposal and it's not like she's expressed a strong interest in any other people that she particularly wants to pair with

The truth is GL is opportunistically looking for anything they can push me on to rebut my push and discredit this.

My thoughts are that they are either aiming for this to look like a TvT to others (if scum) or are actively incapable of accepting others can scumread their play via arrogance, and are death tunneled in OMGUS (if town).

Their "you can't even read me" first reaction has some of those elements but again, if I was in GL's shoes I would respond exactly how they are to try and worm from it.

But as I have said before, losing confidence and backing off from reads like this usually loses me games so I am pretty willing to let this ride.

I do think this points pretty strongly away from marci/LLD S-S, so that's useful info I guess

I don't town read them. I have no real reason to as of yet. However, I was possibly interested in mentoring them.

the thing is, if you're town then it doesn't matter because Marci is likely scum in that world. so Marci/LLD pair leaving is win-win for me

Deal. If you flip town I plan to have to throw out my reads anyway.

@Dats, why? in my shoes right now I'd pair with marci and leave. I don't have an endgame condition other than all scum are eliminated, and if I'm not getting my first choice of an obvtown then that's a useful way to play, to ensure that my death means that a scumread also goes down

Interesting.

You are willing to, if allowed to pair, instantly leave?

If so we can weaponize you to pair with a gent we want dead possibly... Which is preferable to just leaving you in the cold
