Holiday Dance Party ---- Game Over

[Taly]

Could it just be

RH9

?

[Alyssa The Lamb]

actually, you know what?

Taly, which pairing would you feel the worst about losing to

[Alyssa The Lamb]

or the best I mean

[Datisi]

is s_s/ydra really scum/scum? like, what was s_s's plan there. paranoia the ic pair into leaving, probably get my yeet. and then him and galron are left against alyssa and rh9. who gets voted out there?

[Taly]

oooh hmmmm.

shit good question

dat/gl

because dead thread

you/rh9

because holy shit i am so deep in your pocket

aly

even when i tried to crawl out

[GuiltyLion]

my WIM has returned in force

I want to reread predance now knowing 3/4 scum. I think we can solve based on info there. I should have just stuck with my reads before all the replace ins, I had Cabd dead to rights and I just lost sight of the plot when the triple replace out happened

[Datisi]

actually, did rh9 say he was getting paranoid of alyssa or thinking she's scum?

[GuiltyLion]

like, I don't think much of what anyone says here will be useful, the best info is going to come from the 50+ pages at the start of the game methinks

[Taly]

*hugs gl because he is a fluffy tiger*

[Taly]

im hoping its not too obvious that my brain has stopped with Mafia since New Years

[Taly]

datisi

do you think that one brain cell in each of our heads will merge and we will autosolve?

[Alyssa The Lamb]

I think that likely one of

marcistar

and RH9 is scum, considering that the two of them are the ones I most distinctly remember doing this potential posturing. I don't find it super likely that both are scum, but it is possible.
I don't think that both

marcistar

and

angielily

are scum, but I find it likely that one is.
I do still believe that

Firebringer

+

Andante

are TvT
I'm going to pretend that Ydrasse doesn't exist in a read sense since her alignment is effectively irrelevant until post-intermission assuming that pairing survives intermission.
I think that

Catboi

is likely town from this, but I'm not entirely sure since I could see a world where

Catboi

could have pivoted towards attempting to pocket me using the

Cabd

thing as a springboard. I admit I'm also really not sure how to take the trajectory towards looking to pair with me in the first place.
I still think Datisi is town.

Galron

I want to say is town, but I don't know enough about him to be able to assess how likely I am to read him accurately.

Save the Dragons

and

Malakittens

I have no true read on, but shot in the dark logic is that

Malakittens

is town.

[Taly]

is s_s/ydra really scum/scum? like, what was s_s's plan there. paranoia the ic pair into leaving, probably get my yeet. and then him and galron are left against alyssa and rh9. who gets voted out there?

yeah i dont think

SS

is a partner to

Ydra

that means he willingly pushed me to succumb to leaving, thus eliminating his partner.

that's a lot of unnecessary distance considering he could've just fueled my interest in endgaming and he'd still win.

[Datisi]

i already used up my one brain cell in figuring out what s_s was doing, it's your turn now

[Alyssa The Lamb]

alright

well

if I leave

right now

, what happens?

[Taly]

Taly V GL

probably

[Alyssa The Lamb]

are you going to be able to correctly determine which is the scum between Ydrasse and Datisi?

[Alyssa The Lamb]

because I think there's next to no odds that RH9 is scum this game

[Alyssa The Lamb]

and I'm really not interested in fighting against the Ydrasse townread since that's basically a brick wall if it's even still up

[Taly]

then why leave

aly

?

[GuiltyLion]

Leaves the pool with

RH9/Galron

as gents and

Mala/Angie/GuiltyLion

as ladies.

This is becoming scary because out of the three in your pool, I only TR GL. The others are null.
Actually, I'll just propose to the three that I'm fine with now before it it too late and I'm stuck with Mala and angielily.

I'm pretty sure that the setup didn't say that I can only propose to one person.

PROPOSE:GL

PROPOSE:Alyssa

PROPOSE:S_S

I'm panicking. This is the end of the world.

S_S what do you think about RH9's proposal

I was literally thinking about it as you posted this.

My instinct is to call it town because RH9 seems like the type to plan out exactly who he wants to pair with as scum and I wouldn't expect him to leave it this much out of his hands.

And, though weirdly phrased, I think the emotion is more likely genuine because I do get that feeling of "oh shit, all the good ones are gone" whereas scum would be like "welp just gotta find anybody who's willing".

I doubt catboi ever proposes to me so between RH9 and Galron I think I lean RH9. I remember thinking Galron's carefree manner was mildly +town but it seems like that's mostly dropped off.

SS r u going for a townread to pair with or what is ur idea of good pairing

I was thinking of it, yeah... there really isn't anyone that I care to bomb. I think it's entirely possible that I can turn the suspicion on my slot around, and being with someone I townread would be really good in that case.

Maybe it's better to put RH9 with Alyssa though? How are people reading Alyssa?

hmmm hmmm hmmmmmmm

I feel this is significant but my first impression doesn't point me to a definite answer

if scum!RH9, this is scum!Smart trying to smoothly avoid being forced into a S/S pair. definitely seems possible

if town!RH9, does Smart want to set up scum!Alyssa with RH9? Why would he do that when RH9 feels like he could be limbait at any moment and Alyssa would be best bet for endgame in a {marci, Andante, Smart, Alyssa} team?

I guess scum could be in {Ydra/Datisi} and this is Smart trying to set up a pair where town!Alyssa doesn't endgame

but I do think this is ++town for Alyssa, again

[Taly]

idk why

dat

is a consideration for scum atm tbh

do you think he busses a partner when its looking too bad for him?

sounds like a scum throw if so

[Alyssa The Lamb]

because if Datisi is town, then he's going to be stuck on this paranoia for the rest of the game, which could be instantly game losing
if Ydrasse is scum, I see this endgame being just lost
if Datisi is scum, I'm actually more convinced that GL will see it and leave in a 4p, especially without my pairing being there to muddy the waters up more

and if it's just RH9, then my idea of being the last pairing is just gamelosing if I stay

[Alyssa The Lamb]

I'll wait until GL is done at least

[Alyssa The Lamb]

ngl I thought he would be doing it a bit later on

I'll respect the effort enough to at least wait though
