You mistook Shrike's memeshit for a serious dislike, but either way Shrike and I aren't the same person and have different opinions about things, tictac.

I don't know what gotcha you thought you had here, but I'm sorry to say you won't be getting it.

I'd like to see a non-meta argument, personally.

Andante was fine for 3//4 of Day 1 then she took a dive when she forced a progression on Ircher. Her posting today has been more in line with what I expect from her, but it hasn't been good enough to buy back the equity she lost Day 1.

Is that in response to me or re: andate??

Right now my townread *not in order* are sorta like this
{Tet, andate, catboi, LLD[?}}
I was gonna put TBB there as well, but it’s not as strong as the others.

I kinda low key want ircher in any shape or form to fucking die so I can use his flip for info.

Toog reminds me of math due to flavor for that other theme we all played together (WH13), but it’s NAI.

I can't buy a world with Andante as town, personally.

But I do agree with getting an Ircher flip sooner, rather than later. There's no way that all my scumreads are scum, that's half the playerlist. So there's something that has me unable to see what the rest of the playerlist sees, and I think it's likely that Ircher either is it or will reveal it.

Here’s the thing:

I’ll bite I’ll meta andate to see if I’m right about the differences. It’s gonna suck because I hate meta & two I have to go through all the games and skim through her ISO and the mod’s ISO.

i don’t even know if it’s gonna produce anything and i rather put my time & effort into the game rather than meta.

I ... don't think that's a good idea. I don't find meta convincing. I'd listen to a solid non-meta argument.

In post 2648, Toogeloo wrote:Bears, can you tell me your thought process at start of day here?

You think you got poisoned...

...you're hoping to out one or more town powers that might have targeted you?

Help me connect the dots.

As for Mold... If the mod is full on about making flavor irrelevant, then the Mold could be anything. But if the mod is even partially keeping good things good and bad things bad, Mold is scum sided.
Flavours loosely relevant, but not breaking/solvable.

Reaction baiting and observations, When i'm more lucid I can prod people like Cephy.
Kinda wish I'd faked being able to give a clear out.
*shrug*
People who told me they targetted me gives us a pool to work in. We know where a potent scum pr would be.

I'm also not really sane at the moment, but got something usable.

Bears your plan doesnt really make sense

Whoever targeted you would know exactly what you're fishing for and not admit it

scum know most things. why does reaction testing exist by that logic? we specifically said claim if you aren't a strong town pr because we didnt want to fish out claims. we only wanted reactions. either way, this will be confirmable. either we'll die or someone else gets it. and if scum really stop giving people mold just to incriminate us, so be it. that's good for town in the long run anyways.

If you ended up thinking I was scum from a reaction test, the reaction test was bad IMO.I also, dunno what I was reacting to other than the information you got poisoned, if there was something else to react to I have no idea what it was.

I think reaction tests usually involve info scum don't have, i.e. if you fake a guilty they don't know if you're really a cop or not

You didn’t want to fish out claims you just wanted reactions by asking people to claim as long as their PR wasn’t useful is a hell of a take but frankly, I’m not that interested in taking the durr hurr they were fishily fishing, must be scum approach.

I’m sure this is exactly what they want me to think but I find it unlikely that the poisoner and the poisonee are of the same alignment because their approach is kind of like setting up a theatre play just for fun. There’s not much motivation in it for scum to do that.

I know. It’s a hot take, scum partners don’t usually poison each other more at 11.

I have nothing to say about Ircher that hasn’t been covered by other people mentioning the possible outcomes, e.g., Ircher was roleblocked, Ircher lied, catboi lied, the scum team tried to kill Ircher and he was protected, Ircher tried to kill somebody and he was blocked. Ircher was jail kept. The scum that tried to kill Ircher was jailkept.

Somebody else was protected and the scum team’s killer was somebody else. Who was role blocked/jailed/protected from the kill instead.

Also, just to be sure I would check with the mod to reduce chance of mod error in results.
