gamma u stink

do u feel invested in this game gamma

HEM check: Also somebody who makes me smile to read. A bit more aggressive style, but it's consistently so and not defensive or mean. It works for me. It's a lot more reactiony, which is fine. That being said, it feels like he's got cards to play but he's keeping them to himself and only teasing hints of them now and then. I don't think it's AI. It's just more, has a reason to only share thoughts when they're relevant and the most likely to get genuine reactions from their thoughts. Precise is probably more correct. It reminds me of what I've liked from FlavorLeaf in the past. I largely feel good about him. It's just as possible this is just good scumplay, but nah I don't think so.

[Gamma Emerald]

do u feel invested in this game gamma

not exactly

[marcistar]

do u have any reads i can steal

[Frogsterking]

I'm guessing it's TvT

wasn't really my point. Like I personally think that both of them are a bit scummy but they are defending your scumread and you think they are town for it?

I think they look like they're picking a fight with you for no good reason and that's something I attribute to Town.

That being said there are a couple issues I have with the VP slot:

yeah that was what stood out to me

he chose to scumread frogster with the most level 0 read you can read frogster's opening post

Pretty sure I scum read frogster for something similar the first time I played with them. I'm so out of the loop right now, but frogster is an acquired taste that can result in strong negative reactions at first, imo.

This sounds more like scum!VP trying to pocket me rather than town!VP being weary and trying to sort me.

is VP Beltar normally this laid back.
Something feels off about him

This is alarming.

page 8-10

okay yeah, fireisredsir just continuously feels super townie to me. i think Post#176 is a townie post from Nero Cain, as it sounds like he is considering/assessing Firebringer authentically. also it makes me a bit wary about Firebringer, partially because i sort of also had a bad feeling from them right away too but i couldn't really put my finger on why. @Nero Cain do you know if he has claimed scum as town before, or does this mean Firebringer could just be mafia? (if this gets addressed later i'm sorry, but can't promise i will get to that, i have ~an hour to play right now)

i like Guilty Lion i think. there were a few times i almost commented on this but felt like i couldn't substantiate it, but it feels like a lot of consistent "this player is really trying to solve/engage with the game" posts

p#223 i wanted to call a townie post from datisi then i realized it was for the person i subbed for =p wellll i feel like the thought in the second part of the post is at least a little bit villagery, expressing a thought then realizing it's something you've been wrong about before, because they could've just pushed at me for it if they're mafia.

i think the way ausuka jumped as datisi in post#235 seemed townie, as in believable at the moment, and i remembered a couple other minor things i liked from this person so i'm comfortable to note it here as a townread.

lean town:

fireisredsir, scamper, humanmonkey, nero cain, guilty lion, datisi, ausuka
(i know this is too many, probably, but just trying to sort things for now)

lean mafia:

ydresse, firebringer

[Nero Cain]

I don't think I've ever seen you do an RQS. My last 2 scum games with Frog he has NOT posted a RQS though. I mean, we are getting into trust tell territory though so...

[Gamma Emerald]

i agree that replace outs are +scum after pressure especially in this environment
from modding newbie games, i recognized a pattern of people replacing out when it becomes too overwhelming to reassert yourself as town

i think juice siteflaked so that replace out is nai



however i want to

VOTE: ConManMick

because i did not like that first post at all


however, i want to note in doing so i still find relly sus and his responses on the last page did not really move the needle for me

In response to your previous, I threw down a vote because I think it's a waste of time to be not voting, especially when there are no near-elim wagons.
I read the first 15ish pages last night when I requested the slot and a couple of folks are on my radar, off the top of my head joining in Datisi was most memorable of those so sent it there.
Question is:
If my slot flaking is nai, and you only dislike my first post, why is it better to vote me than stick to your read that you've mentioned on irellephant, which I presume you have developed far more over the preceding 60ish pages?

Would you say you are typically a composed person?

Yeah I don't know, that's not really for me to say. I might like to think so. Why?

your response to scamper felt rather unshaken when I felt it would make more sense to be a bit rattled so I was curious if you would call that your normal method of response

what is RQS?

[Nero Cain]

rando question survey

do you know if he has claimed scum as town before

he has, its NAI but still a lil' scummy ya know?

[Gamma Emerald]

do u have any reads i can steal

not really any that I haven’t shared yet

[Gamma Emerald]

Yeah, when I have the time to do so, I look at people in isolation just like I did today. I just don't always give the list of who I'm looking at before I do so.

Okay, why the change?

Making dinner, will be back later.

...

This feels rather hypercritical

[ConManMick]

although CMM I do want to know who those other people are still

OK I read back some and ISOd some folks
I think there's scum in:
Ari, marci, the eira slot, frog, firered
I need to read marci's iso because it was all incidental stuff from reading other folks'.
I think your push on FB is wrong but useful and I like your play.
My Datisi read I think is wrong for now and I'm gonna move my vote. Later stuff certainly appears to be working toward a solve. Page 28 interactions with FB aside but I thing ye all talked about that enough.
I thought also maybe skip and scamp had scum between them but then actually skitter's iso looked pretty good and I haven't looked at scamp properly yet.
HEMs early stuff I thought town and also VP but a few things struck me as off from both and I would like to look back properly at both.
I don't particularly think FB is town but I can wait for him to kick into gear for now and he's done enough that I am not auto scumreading so I don't want to vote there right now.
I am interested in seeing more of Xof's iso dives to see what kind of content is there
I will look at some stuff in the morning. I'm trying to just chuck down rough notes so I don't have to start fresh so I appreciate this is a bit halfhazard.

RN I like Datisi, Nero, and GL.

VOTE: Ari

[Gamma Emerald]

UNVOTE:

whats on ur mind sis

literally nothing lol

i got so spoiled by smaller games + short deadline ones now that im like

information overloaded

jus removing it while i try to stew

(try operative word)

you dropped off this game
you and marci
hang around with us, we wanna hear your thoughts

i have dropped off this game and pretty sure i have used those words before u about myself. get with the program

im enjoying this game rn as a spectator sport and making my silly little reads in my head

mood

[Frogsterking]

It's misleading to characterize my survey as an RQS because the questions aren't random.

[marcistar]

< conmanmick, ari, gamma, lions, soft elf, frogsterking? >

[Nero Cain]

what do you want me to call it then?

[Nero Cain]

marci, that's kinda annoying

[marcistar]

what is

[Nero Cain]

randomly throwing out an unexplained list. You've already done it once, do you know any other tricks?

[marcistar]

no,
idk how to explain it idk where the feeling i get is coming from

[DeasVail]

Just a heads up that my activity is going to be limited over the next few days but I’ll be checking in as I can

[Nero Cain]

Why isn't Gamma pushing me based on tone yet?
