at some point as town you have to have the self awareness to say "hm i scumread this person literally every game"

i guess the excuse is that im actually scum every game. pretty annoying that i get to be punished in this game bc bell hasn't figured out (or is pretending to have not figured out) that he scumreads my personality yet on account of the awful luck ive had in the past.

Just gonna point out again, that enchant townreading myko makes it really hard to believe that this post was ever genuine.

now that bell indicated he can kill me i think that outcome is really likely even if he says he wasn't fully decided.

I know that this is a situation where you hold sole power, but I don't think that a single person is currently advocating for that to be your choice lol
I mean, how does Bell hold sole power? the person bell wants has to accept. and it really looks like bell is only going "who do I stand the best chance at survivng long game with" cause notice how Bell wants nothing to do with me cause all I've done is "IM LEAVING!!!" bell is trying to find the least likely person to leave tbh... I think I'm good with bell not taking anyone, cause all this mocking me? like bell isn't taking this seriously, I was asking a genuine question, like, I strongly TR ceph, I'd love to know why bell is CONVINCED ceph scum, I think fire never leaves the dance, which is why Bell is trying to go there, and notice how bell isn't actually trying to help sort any of enchant dunn luke mala.. instead "oh yeah I'll take fire!" like what... it was initially "I'll take prism" like, I think I'm pretty obviously town here, bell never once said he wanted to pair with me - and I don't want that to happen, I won't accept now.

umm Bell isn't giving me good vibes, the mocking me isn't helping at all, like, Bell is basically if you take all the reasons I SR fire AND MORE... so yeah I'm good with Bell leaving the dance tbh

Only reason I'd recommend the auto elimination(if that's how that works) is due to the fact that I wouldn't trust Andante with a 10 foot pole in the final dance.

So like legit, I want it discussed if Andante forces our pair to leave, why it wouldn't be more logical to just eliminate me. Spares one town slot at least compared to wasting two slots.
Why not even suggest that you get a partner instead? I get that your goal is to get andante to push you but that doesnt solve your problem of being tied to her
This set up is hella foreign to me, it hasn't been a day yet so I'm really improvising as I go. Also I mean, i don't really mind being paired with Andante? So truly I'm okay with being paired with Andante and also okay with being pushed by them. It is what it is.

In post 1779, Andante wrote:Like, why not have a strong read and just go for it, instead of this game of "I'll say I'll partner with everyone... except andante... test the waters...." everything about this feels like scum, and I'm confused why I'm the only one who sees it
I also don't think that this has happened He named exactly 4 names he was considering (out of 10 options), and they correlate to his stated scum reads.

Like, his start of phase suggestions were :Prism, Lukewarm, fire, Or datasi, which kills Andante, Mala, Ceph, or Dunn respectively.

Which of those, the only one I do not see him scum reading prior is Mala.

Andante. Pretend that you think that Bell is town for a minute. He said that he town reads Prism, and that he scum reads you (and he had both of those reads before he was given the ability to choose, and LONG before you started saying you wanted to leave) - Why in the world would you expect him to then be open to pairing with you.

Like, looking at this part of your argument feels like you are saying "BELL IS REFUSING TO KILL HIS TOWN READ, AND REFUSING TO PAIR UP WITH HIS SCUM READ. SO SCUMMMMYYYY"
For post game bragging I'm gonna throw in a guess of Bell, Myko, Enchant

In post 1811, Datisi wrote:ok, has bell ever talked about wanting to yeet prism/ginnie?
Bell mentioned considering pairing with Prism, which would kill Andante. But that is when Andante started saying that she wanted to just leave with Prism, and then Bell kinda walked away from the convo because (from what I gathered) he wanted to see if andante would follow through.
For the record I'd reject Bell's proposal and keep Andante. I haven't yet read a reason to townread Bell other than my guess at set up spec, which doesn't even hold much water after I thought about it. I'm winning this bloody game with Andante and thats a promise.

My interpretation is that you townread Luke for saying they agree with another player? As you see this as them explaining their thought process?

I was actually going to talk about how I don't like it because their reason for townreading datisi at that point was quite literally saying "felt town" and I agree with them.

I feel like I'm missing something here

he was saying "here are the notes i took" and i felt like that particular sentence structure wasn't the way one would write something if it was just a note to themselves.

Okay so I think a better question is, and tell me to just shut up and read the game if already answered, how does this affect your read on the slot.

Do I have this correct that you it was slightly scummy to write the post in the way Luke did?

I just don't think I'm getting what you're trying to point out about the post.

I’m weak to AtE you know. Though, no I was pretty much planning to review and then make a decision and I didn’t think it likely it would be worth it to kill cephrir when there are broader issues.

Though yes, I think if I don’t kill there now they’ll be a pairing that gets to end game.
