In post 155, Masquerader Magenta wrote:@olive, it's a million % a tone thing, what really stood out was the difference between your 129 and 141: you must see the difference? But then your tone to purple changes massively between 125 and 129 so maybe I'm jumping ar shadows.

With red, what specifically do you disagree with me about?

Blue could be town, their original opening was fine.

I want teal to come back. *pout*
My read on Purple changed because it looked like they were genuinely trying to solve me. When it looks like someone is doing that, it tends to affect my read on them. I feel your mischaracterizing Red’s posting as somehow negative and I’m really not seeing that.

I like this post from you more than any of your others and now I’m even more confused than ever on who the intruders are.

In post 160, Masquerader Red wrote:I think the Purple offering to all but two people thing is a shtick, and it does have obvious utility as scum but there's also intrinsic risk to making that post and I don't think it's like Purple was particularly likely to be left out by taking a different tact. So I don't really think it was Purple panicking as scum. The invitee thing is, eh, more or less meaningless in my mind. Purple could be scum who didn't realize that town are invitees, but in some respect I'd think if Purple were scum they'd have been more careful about that; I don't think they're particularly more likely to make that mistake as scum than as town.
I agree because I don’t think Purple was in much danger of not getting picked. It seems the only player really suspicious of them is yellow. If Purple was widely intruder read, then Yellow’s point would be more compelling. What impressed me was that it seemed their main reason for preferring me was that they thought that my identity wasn’t less hard to guess, which would be a reason for intruder Purple not to pick me. Preferring me for that reason, makes way more sense if they’re an invitee.

I think I liked what they said about Purple but I’m now wondering why they aren’t considering the possibility that yellow could be a tunnelled invitee.

In post 171, Masquerader Magenta wrote:@red, i re read your post and while I think my initial 'negative vibes ' impression is still valid, it's not quite as bad as I thought. There are some take.aways, but I guess I find it easier to find town than scum and that affects my take on those kind of posts. In particular, I think what you said about green was well thought through, that their logic seemed backwards.



Their posting on this page is terribad.

I wanted to dance with teal but also really want their catch up. Would anyone oppose this pairing?
I definitely want red to be paired but with Cyan now off the market, whoever I think is more likely to be invitee between you and blue.

Rn, I lean you over blue because they’re not doing as much.

Yeah, good point. I could see that as a possible perspective slip.
how could you see it as that
I think in context Purple's comment that Yellow was reacting to made way more sense. The most charitable interpretation of this is you were taking Yellow's comments at face value, which shows lack of effort on your part to determine the quote was not doctored.

Also, @Magenta, what makes my posting on the previous page "terribad"?

Magenta seems the most suspicious to me. I'm not sure where their interest in teal comes from or their suspicion of red. Magenta seems to be the most worried about finding a partner (and how they will be perceived for asking or accepting) and the least worried about finding the intruders. If they wish, olive can elaborate on the depth of their feelings toward magenta and I will listen. I have read magenta's recent posting and am not impressed.

Green looks like an invitee who was wrongly accused or an intruder who is angry because they feel they were caught for wrong reasons. I don't know. The fact they seem unlikely to receive a partner probably means they are most likely to be invitee of the players I suspect. It's possible that magenta saw through the layers of wifom and asked to be paired with teal so that they would end up paired green, however, unless someone objects, since magenta and green seem so anxious to receive a partner and haven't voiced too much suspicion of each other, why not pair up together?

Teal dropping out looks like intruder who was pushed from the beginning of the game and lost morale over time. It could also be an invitee who lost morale or became sick and ran out of energy, though I consider this alternative explanation less likely. It hasn't escaped my attention that despite their claims to be slow in forming reads, here as the eleventh hour approaches they are even more absent than they were at the beginning. I think teal avoided outting reads and when they did out reads they sounded suspicious. I prefer that teal be left without a partner just to be rid of them.

I'm a bit at odds with olive here on blue: I'm willing to gamble blue is invitee (though it would be amusing if the intruders were blue and teal and the intruders have given up posting altogether) and I'm optimistic their absence is as frustrating to the intruder's as it is to us. Red will likely be an ideal target to be killed with an automaton and being paired with new blue may be a double edged-sword. The intruders have little information to guess new blue's identity, as we have little information to sort them. I prefer to tempt fate and hope new blue's absence is nai and that they will provide some protection to red by being awkward for the intruders to guess.

All I can say about cyan and yellow is that I really hope they are invitee. Cyan seemed genuine in their ketchup and yellow is yellow. I mean I can say more than that but I'll leave it there.

yeah I've been struggling to find a constructive way to express this but cyan just snap-pairing with yellow after I suggested yellow go unpaired feels a tad insulting unless cyan is an intruder
as for pairing with magenta, I might consider it after magenta explains some of their grievance with me.
If I go unpaired I'll be a little upset but I feel like being too salty over it would just further my own personal spiral into eternal bitterness

I’m not commenting on posts that I don’t see as currently relevant. If you’d been paying attention, you’d know I no long hold that opinion.

I liked magenta’s recent posts. Blue could be anything. I don’t have any issue with anything they’ve posted but it’s more that they haven’t really done too much for awhile, so with little time left, I’d expect them to be more active. I suppose they could just be a bored invitee?

Offer: Blue

I reviewed my options and this seems like the most pleasant selection out of all of them. Red and Magenta would likely refuse outright and I don't feel the greatest about Teal, though it's a second I would consider. Also, despite the limited content I feel like I got a good vibe from Blue's posting.

I will also
invite Blue to dance.


I'm happiest with pairs if Green/Teal/Magenta form a pair and one is left out. I feel there's solid odds both intruders are in that set. I think the cyan/yellow pair forming is fine.
Purple wrote:Red will likely be an ideal target to be killed with an automaton and being paired with new blue may be a double edged-sword.
For what it's worth, I feel confident I've gone to enough lengths to conceal my identity. I don't think there's any player on this site who would be able to identify me. I also don't think Blue is particularly identifiable at least yet... so I'm not sure why they'd be a particular risk.

Masquerader Blue is being replaced. The deadline will be put at 36 hours and frozen until a replacement is found.
I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”

kind of hate 53 because the pushback on Purple doesn't make sense here without expressing a read on yellow - it's somewhat insufferable but I guess there are players who really are like that.
