Mini 1630: Edgar Allan Poe uPick GAME OVER!

@TTH
You still think my opinion of Lynx was scum indicative?

How do you feel about the readlists?

Can't really concern myself with those right now since I don't have developed reads myself.

Bookitty's not town, though, so we can talk about that if you're around.

[CaskOfAmontillado]

Why are people townreading Boo?

<3 you starella!

[copper223]

@TTH
Finish reading and we can talk about it

[CaskOfAmontillado]

Well that's unlikely to happen since I just rolled into bed after eating too much and I'm not going to be able to plunk out long posts right now.

I say you're wrong, what say you?

[TierShift]

Hey why is bookitty not town?

[TierShift]

From memory her posts are pretty town.

Then again, somewhat appeasing? Idk
Good read sunday or tonight, not sure yet.

[CaskOfAmontillado]

There's a disproportionate amount of real estate in the ISO devoted to Lynx, and even with all that she comes to the hilariously erroneous conclusion that we should lynch him even though she's convinced he's town. Regardless of any claimed abilities, he's definitely better to town alive than dead.

The townreads she's doled out so far are for pretty superficial reasons. The one on you is a perfect example of what I'm talking about there.

@TTH
I say the fact she is not as paranoid about me as usual was why I was not townreading her before but her lynx endorsment is very close to her usual town game.

What do you have against her?

[CaskOfAmontillado]

And

even with the stated conclusion that we should lynch Lynx, the vote's nowhere in sight even though there's really nothing to wait for, which looks more like scum not wanting to look overeager than anything. She pays a lot of lip service to more discussion while not attempting to make much progress in developing more refined reads. They remain fairly skeletal.

Have you played a game with her as scum?

[CaskOfAmontillado]

VOTE: Bookitty

[copper223]

@TTH
Nope, I did meta her more than once however.

I'll sleep on it but her back and forth between should we lynch Lynx or should we keep him alive also doesn't look like scum, the "erroneous conclusion" is based on her letting lynx play as he wants to play and I can tell you for sure that is not scum indicative for Boo, for the rest idk.

[TierShift]

I've still not seen anything against coa other than pbpa by brantz and nothing from cat.

[Krystal Bald]

What situation? You're probably town, probably underestimating the power of your living ability, probably overestimating the power of your dead-ability. All in all, I'd rather have you around than not.

*Nods and points at this.*

*Points at herself. Forms two mouths with her two hands. She looks back and forth as the left mouth flaps its trap and the right mouth stays shut. Points at the right mouth, then at her wrist and taps her foot.*

Took me a bit, but I'm pretty sure I understand this one. For anybody who doesn't understand: Krystal is saying that one head of the hydra has been doing all the talking and they don't want to vote without having both people on board.

*Nods.*

I know Tiershift can be very persuasive and neither he nor Fakespeare (who I don't know anything about) has taken that tack.

*Shakes head.*
*Points at Bookitty's head, then walks backward.*
*Points at PurloinedLetter. Reaches down and picks something up off the ground to show it off, then places it down again before climbing on top of it. Stretches arms and legs out to either side, as in the Warrior stance. Bends elbows and knees, and wiggles hips back and forth.*

Brantz: No clue why posting a readlist everyone agrees with is particularly town

*Sidles up to BRantz and gestures for him to move forward. Follows BRantz step for step on his journey toward wherever.*

----------

*Points at TellTaleHeart's moving lips and then at her own head.*

[Kthxbye]

Town: Lynx, PLynch, Boo, and Krystal

Scum: copper

Null: The rest of you

I'd literally lynch anyone not on my town list today. That's really all that needs to be said.

[Kthxbye]

To expound, I don't want to lynch Lynx because it's the most solid town read. On the other hand, Lynx will prolly be killed at night due to his posting about his being lynched ability being strong. If I was scum and Lynx isn't lynched today, I'd take him out just in case, even if he is over exaggerating/estimating his lynched ability. The town in me though really wants to keep a very solid town read alive. So yeah, it's pretty much in Lynx's hands at this point. I'll prolly just follow whatever he thinks is best in this situation seeing as he knows his powers and the rest of us can only guess at this point. He's painted a big bulls eye on his chest for scum to NK and if he thinks it's best for him to be lynched today, then we should trust it's best. There's no undo'ing the bulls eye at this point.

[TierShift]

I feel stupid for not understanding any of krystal's longer paragraphs.
Please try to explain what it is that you don't like about me, nik.

I mean, I assume that it is nik because I don't see mantis posting anywhere...
If she's not active, you can still just do whatever you want to do, you don't have to wait for her.

[Krystal Bald]

*Gives a thumbs-up.*
*Points at Faster Than Light, Policy Lynch, Catastrophe, BRantz.*

*Gives a thumbs-forty-five-degrees.*
*Points at CaskOfAmontillado, copper223.*

*Gives a thumbs-negative-forty-five-degrees.*
*Points at Medea the Alien, LynxKuroneko, Ghatokaca, Tiershift, Bookitty.*

*Gives a thumbs-down.*
*Points at Kthxbye.*

*Points at TierShift. Pretends to hold something up to her mouth with her right hand while moving her head back slowly and bobbing her Adam's Apple. Sets the object down for a moment before gasping and snatching it back up. Picks something up from beside it with her left thumb and forefinger, showing it off with a significant glance toward TierShift. Sets the thing in her left hand down before setting the object in her right hand down on top of it.*

[TierShift]

I have no clue what you want to say. You swallow a drink, put it down, show me another object and put your glass on top of it?

Does it have to do with wifom?

*Nods and points to the object under the glass.*

[TierShift]

Ahhhhhhhhhh, I get it now. English isn't my first language, but googling beer mat helped me. (Coaster)

I agree that I'm doing jackshit as of now. Your read on me is probably fairer than all the fools calling me confirmed town for my claim.

[Kthxbye]

*Gives a thumbs-down.*
*Points at Kthxbye.*

It hurts Krystal....it hurts bad. I'd ask you to expound, but....

How bout you take the top 3 posts you think are scummy and wiggle around till you get across why they are scummy. I'll play the guessing game with you till we figure it out.

[Kthxbye]

In case you're wondering why I give a rats what you think, you are a town read of mine and if my town reads can all town read one another, we have a better shot at winning cuz I'm pretty damn confident in my town reads.

[CaskOfAmontillado]

I did not like these posts very much. Despite the fact that COA is my best scumread right now, I would be open to listening to them discuss why I should lynch this instead.

-Ceph

If you weren't getting a free pass today for being essentially a claimed vig, this would be scummy af.

I just said I wanted to policy lynch varsoon, so whatever case you get out of me is gonna have a healthy dose of 'irrational' and 'non-game related.' IME he's a liability to town and there's a decent chance he'll just quit under pressure leaving us with sonic, who is much easier to read.

Now that said? That is a pair of shitty posts. Particularly townreading Fightingmomma8:16 over nothing. And their ISO is not confidence inspiring. But my partner just put down an excellent vote and my feelings on the matter are Not To Be Trusted, so find somebody else to lead your charge.

@lynx- I think I had an epiphany. How does this sound:

Assuming you can communicate after death, which seems to be an ability that some town players have, you use your self-watch tonight. If scum is as afraid of your dead-ability as you think, they will nightkill you, giving you a guilty result that you can communicate to a townie and effectively forcing scum to trade one of them for you, which is a positive outcome for town. If they're not willing to trade, we can always lynch you later for whatever value your death provides.

If ceph&co want to, they could even loverize you with a scummy player, generating a whole other level of WIFOM for scum. If ceph picks wrong, they trade one of them for you and a lynch candidate. If he picks right though, worst case for them is trading two of them for you. And if we wind up lynching you later at least we get a shot at getting scum at the same time. I'm not sure if that's better than just loverizing two scummy players for the two birds/one stone play, but I trust Cephydra to make the right decision without broadcasting it.

In fact, I'd be OK with notsceph_theoriginal announcing targets that may or may not be legitimate at the start of each day, just to dick with the nk selection process. I don't think town actually loses anything in that shell game.

My partner already said everything relevant about Boo; she's doing a bunch of things that are really safe for scum. It's easy to 'trust' lynx on his lynch if you want townies dead. IME unilateral lynch decisions based only on one player's role PM work out roughly zero times in a thousand.

I feel like I'm forgetting something, but I cant remember what.

VOTE: kthxbye
I disagree with CoA on Boo but don't think they are likely scum anymore. If lynx can talk after death it would be a good solution.

Medea needs to post something meaningful.
