Micro 1052: Lake Melancholy [END]

[Aristeia]

Ari, why don't you vote prism?

because I want to play the game of mafia and not the game of "mechspec"

[Prism]

Acting like you're not pushing me/Skitter in 155 is again disingenuous.

There are degrees of forcefulness to be distinguished but it is very clear why I think it's going partner snipehunting.

[Prism]

You literally are saying my argument feels fake and that I don't buy it. That's dayplay criticism and has nothing to do with mech.

[Aristeia]

My argument is that you previously went on a snipehunt chasing my partner before me in the Mini Normal. I don't think you even start on that path again and just focus squarely on me.

Your response to this was that you understood the connection. However you didn't spend that much time on it, and you weren't actually voting skitter. In comparison, you actually wound up forcing my "partner" through first in the other game as you were already there. This distinction is a mitigating response with further depth of context, not a complete rejection.

Perhaps you are in fact town and this distinction critical. Acting like there's obviously no real connection and it's irrational from my end to expect this makes me suspect it is in bad faith.

Maybe you're just using words that are too big for me to understand but I read this and I really don't have a clue what you are talking about

I am not pushing you/skitter.

I am saying to keep that team in mind because if we get to elo and you're both alive then maybe the mechspec was right on day one.

if you're both town or w/e then you probly wouldnt even live to elo so who give a shit?

vp this seems like a weird thing to pick on ngl

Nah. You catch scum D1 in a game like this by looking for people acting awkward. Especially in a game with lots of killers like this, scum will have a hard time finding a rhythm immediately. They will misread intentions and try to act natural. There is a whole artiface to D1 as scum where you need to get in the flow.

[Shuichi Saihara]

Was your suspicion of skitter mech Ari? I thought it was her reaction to the mech, which is a different thing.

[Prism]

Don't think I've ever malded at a post as hard as I am at 253.

[skitter30]

What? You're the one who said i was lying

That is not what i meant. I said it was weird of you to say "ngl" there when you could just say "vp these posts are suss".

There is a forced casualness to appending "ngl" on the phrase. So I asked why you would need to "lie" about calling my posts suss.

... 'ngl' is a very common phrase ...
This basically seems like yoh're trying to find further reasons to push me, and its very flimsy ^

the mech would have to be right in the first place for skitter's reaction to it to be scum!indicative.

as in if I'm right about prism!scum, then I think skitter!scum would react in the way she did by brushing it off.

but if I'm wrong about prism!scum, then I think skitter!scum is more likely to play into the conflict.

It's page 11. You want a novella?

I've already given you one with the opening lore and lore I've put in the vote counts.

I am just really dumb you need to use simple words with me :<

[Prism]

At the most basic level I think Aristeia can read.

I'm going to go for a walk and try to read other slots but I fiercely oppose going elsewhere right now and do not anticipate this changing.

Are you this intellectual pick on stuff from the sidelines person, or are you the MORE SKITTER VOTES, I LAUGH IN THE FACE OF YOUR WIMPY VOTE person? I'm getting all kinds of whiplash. Maybe you should check your PT for coaching.

Fwiw i'm not sure she's actually pushing me, or even a team of me/you ...

Pedit i want more than you're giving rn, yes
I think if you'd like to push me you can come up with something better and more real than 'i'm nervous!!!1!' and 'i used the phrase ngl'

Even more than that if that's your strongest read i find that concerning yes

[Aristeia]

ok while she's gone can someone translate 248 into easy english for me.

I have no clue what this us supposed to mean

[Dwlee99]

Zero points for claiming ascetic. that's basic moves.

I could just pick this post instead idk I'm right about what I said

its the fact that you said it and the example you gave doesn't support it. that makes me think you just pulled up his iso and grabbed a post that you thought supported your argument to add to your evidence pile. but if it was a genuine read then there was some actual post out there that informed that read, and you would have found that one instead

It does support it and I already knew I was right so I just grabbed the first post from each player's iso that was showing they were playing the game cause skitter was acting like no one was at that point which was not my impression at all when I read. I didn't read the thread marking down posts like "yea this one was doing stuff" I just knew people did and had to go find it

You're behaving differently than how town-prism thinks you would behave here - namely, she doesn't think you would start a push on a teamread involving here again after the events of that game
/ you would keep the events of last game in mind as you make fhis push here

You're not and she finds this suspicious

I dont know wjat the events of last game are so i really couldnt say if this is a reasonable expectation or not

[Aristeia]

ok but I'm literally not pushing a teamread. so I don't understand her criticism because the very basis of it is wrong.

[VP Baltar]

Zzzzzz

Dwlee is town lean

well if thats the case, then i think you're the one who feels the most awkward and having a hard time finding a rhythm

[skitter30]

I mean tbf it did kinda read like a teamread
Anyways what do u think abt vpb?

[Prism]

ari post scumteam spec. ari fall flat.

lesson focus one at a time

ari post scum spec again. prism say maybe scum. ari say do as town still, just less force. it true, this game less force. why prism think scummy?

prism say maybe still scum. maybe town no spec team at all.

also tonal performative concern with 155
