U could try talking to me about your andante read instead. You catch more flies with honey or whatever. Or you could try listening to my opinion!

Mush if you scumread both then i don't see why it should matter that much? That just means you'd want to kill both slots.

In post 2216, Malakittens wrote:Can someone explain andate scum cuz she feels different than holiday party where she pinged me early game
felt like she's not really paying attention to the game and making easy pushes + has felt very reactive to other people's reads on her. But also I'm just compromising somewhere I don't townread to get a wagon before deadline.
In post 2217, Cephrir wrote:Seems like tictac is not going anywhere. Can I interest anyone in a val or grendel wagon? I dont think andante is playing like someone concerned about their image at all.
Would not oppose grendel simply because meg's posts were obviously bad and a lot of grendel's catchup felt like someone going through the motions, scumread on norwee didn't feel like it was based on anything tangible. No strong impressions either way on Val.


(also I don't think it's alignment indicative, at all, but I think it's funny how Grendel's like "LLD's name precedes her" in his first post and then is like "buhh are you someone who does gambits and targeted mind games" like...c'mon)

Val just feels so unlike their usual self in this game.
Andante i think would always feel scummy, but it should be easier to tell if Val is town imo. So the fact that i can't here is not a good sign.

Agreed, your reads are shyte.
Hey do you mind telling me whether the flavor of Ircher's claim makes sense?
It really doesn't, but from what people are saying, they're adamant that Flavor and Roles can't be used to break the game.

Helen Marshall is stand offish, no nonsense, and spends a lot of the game doing her own thing, and in the DLC she runs off alone and says she can only "do this herself.". She's the former head of Security before the Main Character has to put her down since she gets infected by Hiss. She's not a bad guy though, and would most certainly be aligned with town if in the game.

TL;DR Helen Marshall isn't really Friendly Neighbor material IMHO, but it's a confirmable role, so... Whatever.

Like this is pretty bad. I feel like Val here is trying to sound reasonable with their posts but is also trying to mislim.
To reiterate. I feel this is one of Val's scummier posts.
His play is also really basic, in stark contrast to how he usually plays in games i'm familiar with.

Put me down as another player who would like an actual explanation as to this.
This post especially just seems like the laziest possible vote at the time it was made. Roden has just felt like LHF to me this game, so that's why this particular stance has pinged me and i voted the slot soon afterwards.

Their latest post also seems a bit sheepy in that they haven't talked about Andante at any point, yet seem ok with just immediately joining the wagon without a word?

Roden is basically just that big elephant in the room that inflates the more people shout at it. And it's not really scummy, but people can't take their eyes off him and claim they're scummy.
