fire is mafiaaaaaaa

who wouldn't be nervous before a big dance

actually tho weird that you think that, im just p low energy rn and am not trying very hard, don't think nervousness is really on the table. if i were maf id prob be more self conscious about how i sound

Just as a heads up, I am actively trying to bring down the site wide perception of me being super high energy all of the time. Because, it is pretty not fun when I am town in a low energy irl day, and then everyone decides that low energy luke = scum luke, and so then low energy irl luke feels pressured to amp it up to not eat a miselim.

Take from that what you will, but I am aware that that might lead to me eating some miselims before people buy that I am changing my town playstyle for my own benefit.

why would maf you be more self conscious? you know you for sure get a partner here on d1.. nothing to worry about there

and like, @ fire, it doesn't feel like you're even trying to sort anyone right now

cause its a mafia game and i wouldn't want to get caught? idk how the dance play differs exactly from standard, but i assume that is still a concern

Both of you. Shush for a little. I already see where this is going.

towny post

scummy entrance

i had already entered

I had not seen an issue with post 66, but this response does not look good

Scum Luke would dream of getting away with a post like this. But there's bigger fish to fry out there. I can wait and see with Luke.

This is an interesting take. I don't believe you and I have ever played together, what gives you any impression on what size fish I am ? Or that giving me time will make a difference?

ok i understand that. the main reason i wanted it was just that if you happen to be town and came around to a TR on me, i felt like our pt would be a very awesome one to have. like my reads are generally bad but yours are good and in general pt dynamics between two town who TR each other are just good.

i also felt like offering to dance with you would be something that scum me would just never do and i felt like it would show a level of trust that scum me would never be willing to place in town you (again assuming you are town)

all bets were placed on town ydra and while that may seem unreasonable, its a gamble that i felt was worth it so it's what i chose. this is super explainy but that was my thought process. it doesnt make sense in every way but it doesn't really have to to be real.

I mean, hey, just do what you want!! have a good time!! don't feel like you HAVE to keep up some insane energy all the time, enjoy the game!!!

Like, I know I'll be gone like all tues/thursdays I have to make up for that with more effort on the non tues/thursdays

i sorted bell and that wasn't enough for you

most people i don't have a very good read on yet. i haven't danced before so the lack of votes is changing the vibes and making me less sure on reads

oh, not in that way.

If I'd have to call it now I'd eliminate Bell. I could see us getting lucky with Noraa. Not that bothered with Fire.

You? Pretty meh read. I'd need more to go on compared to some of the others. I'm happy to let you be for a while.

i do have one tentative scumread which is myko but i wanted to check out some past games since idk them as a player

response to 134

lol the "bell posts a lot. bell town" ?? right.. cause those posts are real towny... mehh I think there's plenty for some initial reads on folks

Bell + Fire should pair up tbh...

that solves that issue tbh, and they just go tomorrow

Is this something that you thought about before the day started, or was this your gut reaction to the day opening and Ydra's opening posts?

I think people should pair up based on their posting frequency. It doesnt make sense to pair a high frequency poster with a low frequency poster. it would be "wasting" the high frequency posts because pts can make sorting easier a lot of the time.

This approach seems so arbitrary. Is that something that has been done in other Dance Games?

[This is my first real dance game - just a marathon one time, and those are wild]

it was a gut reaction for sure. that post was me trying to explain that gut reaction in hindsight and put it into words.

noted.

You had a couple of posts about leading with an offer to dance with Ydra that seemed pretty thought out for something you did in your first post of the game.

So Andante is playing how I used to like to play day 1. He's happily drawing fire for me here so I can just let him do his thing. But does mean I feel pretty comfortable with how the game goes.

The way you catch scum with it is that between pushing and pulling town in different directions scum isn't keeping up with the responses. You might get lucky with one of your pushes but likely it's the 10ish people watching the show where scum actually is. Newb scum tries to hit the breaks. Better scum try to respond or goes off doing their own thing.

Fire is responding just being generally meh about everything. They are a bit egocentric for my taste but they aren't walking out of step.

Bell's knee jerk in comparison (the other player that goes with the idea that this is wrong and should slow down) is to actually post just that and nothing else. They spend 4 posts about how this all shouldn't go so quickly and we can all just respond to the current situation (andante pushing noraa) later.
