Yeah, that’s an interesting point, I guess it’s possible they could be scum here.

There’s weird on your slot and MMR.

There is weird [things in general] on your slot and MMR.

@mastina - I read your long post.

It is logically sound in that I don’t see three players being intentionally bad with mechanics.

However by the same token I disagree that it’d be a mistake at all of MMR scum.

For the same reason it’s unlikely a mistake it’s also unlikely a scum gambit either as all three heads would have to agree to something silly.

I wish they’d come online and explain it.

At the same token of three heads not making a mistake

On the other side you have three + X (where X = size of scum team) heads reviewing a scum gambit plan and going “Yep sounds good”.

There’s definitely something weird here.

Let’s have PPF and MMR give overviews of the whole game.

Yes I know Nancy isn’t willing

But I hope Titus and the MMR heads are

By getting people talking about other slots we can solve the pair I think. Plus if anyone is scum it gives good spew.

If you’re absolutely certain one slot is scum then include it in your list please than clogging up the thread.

I just saw the player list and realized that not only do we have a lot of Hydra, as Math pointed out, they are pretty big. I've never honestly been a fan of hydrae, tbqh.

I'd like to hear Firebringer's thoughts from the similar school of, "I'm not reading Day 1," as me. See if we are n'sync.

I don’t know if Rubella is trying to fake a tell at this point or just not reading.
Mastina is claimed a similar role to yours.
She can’t slip anything. Either she is what she claimed or isn’t.

Also what makes you think my role is “confirmed” to have something to do with alignments?

Meg's announcement that you would've vanillaised the Solar Cult if you had been eliminated in the place of Bunny.
PPF's D1 push means that it's unlikely that they're Solar.
I know this doesn't make them conftown or confscum.

She hard tunnelled me.
She messed up badly (regardless of alignment) and she needed to claim.

It was mostly the idea of Mumps.
He wanted to see if PPF was Town or Lunar. (He strongly believed that PPF couldn't be Solar.)

I hope that this makes it more clear why we ended up targetting PPF.

Can Mumps please explain it then?

I’d also love if you could say a few sentences about each player?

Eh, in with math here: I think a lot of mastinas initial premises are correct but not all the conclusions.

I strongly also agree that mmr's reading of the announcement shouldn't make anyone think our and maths slots are confirmable,or even necessarily that it confirms (mech wise) either of our slots as 'town" or 'prs'.

Way too much noise from some slots about the bunny elim when it was really clearly a compromise. We spent too much of yesterday not progressing but I do think today is already better.

I discussed the result of MMR with klick and his take was basically that either or both slots could be scum. He thinks Nancy could be doing what she's doing from either role and I'm still banging the 'i feel ok reading Titus but I dont have enough from that head' drum. Basically , I just agree with math a lot, which is ....fun

Out if the votes on MMR, my biggest scum read is unwind. Haven't checked this with klick but today's Poe outside of whatever is happening with MMR/PPF is unwind, RR and furtive.

I don’t know whether or not to be super happy or super worried but I’ll take it.

I think PPF and MMR should talk broadly about the game as a whole. Ideally a summarized version of the heads (or as close as possible noting divergence) I don’t want this to be a tunnel day.

I will kick the ball off:

If MMR is scum I think we are looking at some quieter players for buddies
If PPF is scum we’d be looking at a Yume/Mastina/someone vocal crowd.

Sound idea? Agree or disagree?

And please don’t say “I think MMR/PPF is town with a readwall why” This is about generating possible/probable words. If you can’t do that then just either ignore the post or say you can’t.
