TFT uPick [Game over!]

[Gamma Emerald]

Does mastina have a divergent town/scum meta?

Oh yes, quite strongly so at that, but what the town meta is and what the scum meta is, shift over time.

Some years my townplay is the scumplay of prior years, and vice versa. One is always strongly different from the other though and the closer they approach to identical, the sooner a radical shift where they invert is likely to occur.

That said, I don't actually know what my meta is like for either alignment right now.

It's been like six months, maybe longer, since I've had a regular game as either alignment, meaning that I don't have a recent meta as either alignment.

My last game was multiball (which inherently diverts from the norm), and I spent three months just trolling the dead thread that game.

...Speaking of Dead tho...

I am the MASTER of DEATH. Those who have FALLEN shall find me as their SHEPHERD, as I offer their FINAL SALVATION.

Not fucking happening, Sanae Kochiya.

I would have asked Titus but she’s been ignoring me all game so

Oh well

this kinda biases me towards picking Mala because being snubbed by Titus makes me kinda think she might be scum afraid to hood with me bcuz I'll catch her like I did before, and Mala bringing this up reinforces that feeling

[Dunnstral]

please notice

@gamma:
Will you be my hoodRatmate with me ?

malakit is scum who wants to find out

Best friends: I don't agree with friendly neighbor, I think that interpretation is based on the name of the trait rather than what it does in the source; I think this trait pairs people up in some way and gives a buff. Maybe just 1 pair for balance.

Mage crest: A mage emblem is an item that makes you count as having 1 additional mage on your team, for the purpose of set bonuses. This sounds pretty specific to the mage role so it's surprising to me that we have two people voting here right now.

Ancient Archives: A tome of traits gives you a choice between different emblems. I have no clue how that would translate to an ability here. Could be similar to mage crest but with different choices.

I think it’s obvious why Enchant picked Mage Crest but you didn’t know that I knew anything about that until now sooo

Enchant is probably town based on how he’s handling this situation

I have a secret scumread rn.

please lim malakit

This post does not feel like it is in good faith to me

[Nomsy]

since other players may have compelling reasons to want me

i got night protect

I highly doubt this is true. What are you really up to?

only one way to find out

i choose ndmath

[Gamma Emerald]

I think I'm gonna wait to see how Meerkat responds to a certain post of mine, if I get a particular reaction I'll hood with him for sure.

I would have asked Titus but she’s been ignoring me all game so

Oh well

I've been responding to drama. I'm down to work together but I felt ignored by you too.

I mean I haven’t seen you mention me once or any of my posts. The last time you this where you didn’t comment you ended up being scum. Ngl I don’t wanna be in a neighborhood with a potential scum because that just makes the hood worthless imo

No. Titus has a high tendency to ignore me when she’s scum rather than work with me. So the fact that she has legitimately posted a single post towards me made me not want to go there.

As for gamma the last time we played together in a hood I was able to sniff out gamma being scum. I was forced in the hood there.

But I really like hoods with players that I can engage and read decently well. Gamma and I have this connection. I also need someone to keep me engaged with the game because once I lost interest I’m SOL

Fair. I have too many options anyway at the moment and I kinda want to see where the board shakes out. I have three current scumreads and quite a few townreads but I think sitting on them is the best play. If that rubs you the wrong way, so be it. I'm not going to take an aggressive stance...

yet

. I don't want to spend my limited posts reacting to everything but cultivating instead. With only 150 posts, ideally each post says something, conveys something and moves the game forward. We're easily going to hit that cap if we bicker back and forth regarding selection processes.

I also favor town getting together with town for the uses for hoods this game, but normally I would consider hooding with an unknown.

its not what happens though

Oh well

its reframing

[NDMath]

Titus becomes townier right after I asked why they were being townread.
A random townread I now have is Enchant, their reaction to the augment outcome looks genuine and I liked their other surrounding posts.

VOTE: Vivax

[Malakittens]

No. It’s giving a reason why I’m choosing Gamma over Titus instead of sending them both an invite. Gamma was always going to be a top choice, but Titus would have been another choice, but the way she’s playing makes me lean against it. I would also say if Mastina would give me a light of day she’d be a choice but I’m sure as hell not going to pick a player who is going to reject me because it defeats the purpose. Same with me trying to gain a good with someone who I feel is scum

Accept Nomsy's Neighborhood

I suspect no one else really wants to hood with either me or nomsy here.

[Titus]

Dunn, I'm a bit worried about aligning with you. I'm not seeing much in terms of town/scumhunting in your ISO outside of Nomsy.

I like ND's response to hooding with Nomsy even if Nomsy might be bad.

[Toogeloo]

I'm available to be in a neighborhood today and/or tonight.

toogle-oogle why u heal best friends

[Toogeloo]

Titus' explanation of Best Friends made me rethink the benefits.

[Toogeloo]

I hope to get to 1on1 with a few people.

[Nomsy]

Titus' explanation of Best Friends made me rethink the benefits.

HEAL: Mage Crest
I think this is more interesting than Best Friends. TO me it doesn't sound like we actually gain much from best friends

Well... Any guess on what we are healing is all conjecture anyways

i thought it was all a gyess anyway?

[beeboy]

Mastina town

Meerkat - W
Dunn - W

[beeboy]

Why are people hunting for an imposter in thread?
That strikes me as like odd and wolfy but too many people are doing it.

[beeboy]

Ima wait to make my hood but please don’t hammer before I get the chance
