hello radiantcowballs ^_~

[RadiantCowbells]

Hi Nahdia!

I'm town, pinkyswear. I'm Corrin from the new Fire Emblem.

[RadiantCowbells]

Why you call me Cowballs doe

[Nahdia]

...Corrin from the New Fire Emblem as a buzzfeed article? o_O

I too am town. i tried picking an article that was blatant SK/scum bait but marquis trolled me and gave me town :I

oh & bc im a dork sry lol.

[Nahdia]

oh actually yeah i guess i got a flavor title that's related to my article too

i dunno if i should claim tho. tempting.

[RadiantCowbells]

My buzzfeed article was like a guide to helping choose sides in Fates.

You actually probably shouldn't because we might end up with more people in here, some of which are not trustworthy?

[RadiantCowbells]

I feel so weird about having gotten this role.

[Nahdia]

well i just meant flavorclaim but still yeah, this being day 1 the risk for jumping into this PT is low for anyone. i just figured neighborhoods are a good way to read people and my day1 reads/votes are absolute garbage anyway so why the heck not?

[RadiantCowbells]

Oh, suree.

I think you pledged loyalty because it was to me.

[Nahdia]

well yeah i mean i am your biggest fan

i mean, i probably would have done it to anyone i have a reasonable amount of faith in that they're competent. like, if was some nobody or lynchbait or w/e I'd probably have passed on that lmao.

[RadiantCowbells]

I sort of feel like your need to make excuses for why you did it makes you more likely to be town but I'm still working that one through.

I like neighbourhoods as well! I wish people would start posting.

[RadiantCowbells]

I'm thinking that, correct me if I'm wrong, Scum!Nahdia who immediately joined would say something along the lines of OMG BIGGEST FAN CARRY ME and be like totally okay with that decision
Whereas as town I would think you're uncomfortable with the idea of having surrendered your vote so early so it would make sense that you're making excuses for it.

[Nahdia]

i mean, you're asking me to affirm your perception of my scumplay? what am i supposed to say: "yes ur right and therefore i am town! " ? i like to think my scumgame is better than my towngame but as scum here it's hard for me to say whether I'd enter cautiously like I am now or decide to overcompensate in the other direction like you suggested.

these are probably the sorts of posts you should be making in the game thread if you want to spark discussion. you don't need to sell me on my being town, i promise i believe it ^_~

[RadiantCowbells]

I don't want necessarily want to spark discussion!

I want to explain why I'm townreading you.

[RadiantCowbells]

Having got this role I'm planning to spend a ridiculous amount of time and effort on this game.

I'm in no rush to get anything done yet.

[Nahdia]

do you usually have such complex reasons for such early townreads? kiiiiiind of seems like you might be overjustifying. just a bit

thank you for the townread though <3 pls use my vote well

not sure you know the answer; but tomorrow do you get a fresh PT? as in, people can't see what was said in this one if they pledge tomorrow?

[RadiantCowbells]

Yes!

I just usually don't explain them.

[RadiantCowbells]

You won't be able to see it in my newer games because I got to the point where I simply don't explain my reads if it's based on logic like I'm using here because people don't understand emotional reasoning, but if you look at some of my older games in early 2015 there will be lots of cases in the early game similar to how I feel about you.

Since I got a ridiculous role like this one I'm going to make the effort to explain more of my reads and be more transparent and shit.

[Nahdia]

fair enough i guess. i just feel like again and again people who refute their own meta as soon as it's brought up and say "oh im changing how i play this time" end up just being scum making excuses. i do it too. we'll see tho.

totes jealous of your role tbh.

[RadiantCowbells]

I... don't do that?

Feel free to read my scum games! I intentionally play towards my town meta.

[RadiantCowbells]

Actually you want to see something like what I'm doing now?

read Steven Universe mafia. I was super invested in that.

[Nahdia]

i find meta in general is unreliable (for me at least, and i think for most people who try to use it) especially if you didn't experience it first hand. someone being defensive about their meta is a tell tho. and that's kinda what u just did. just a bit. it was a bit scummy but i forgive u bc i am ur biggest fan ;3

ok well if ur gonna be super invested in this game i promise to give it my all too. fair warning tho my towngame kind of sucks lmfao.

[RadiantCowbells]

I'm not defensive about my meta and I don't know how you got that conclusion!

You wouldn't be able to see me making cases like that as EITHER alignment recently. It's not a useful meta tell either way it's simply outside of the norm for me because I don't usually expend this much energy.
