Heart is now a townread. See 154 and 155, which feel Town to me. And regarding 156, I usually have a lot of townreads in Day 1. I mainly get my scumreads through SvS and NKA.

I also occasionally use VCA to scumread despite that usually ending up in me scumreading the wrong people.

I never claimed it could, so why do you continue to shade me for something I didn’t do?

Oh I agree. On Red. Blue is definitely a townread for me as well as Arrow and Green.

No red is locktown for me now.

Also if you townread people who took issue with your entrance, did you make your entrance deliberately scummy on purpose? I'm confused about your thought process there.

I was trying to see how people react to lurking and other obvious scumtells. I dod have a scumlean which became a null read. To be fair, you can see 111 for my one ephemeral scumlean. I immediately ended up rereading and found nothing scummy and thus lost my scumread.

Also I still nullread Triangle. Triangle does seem to be deliberately writing in a way which I find unreadable. (That being said, this could be a playstyle thing.)

Triangle gives me tstbs vibes but could be, just seems too godawful to be scum, since scum usually at least try to come up with decent reads but if noob scum, then obviously the jury would still be out on that.

Why do you want to pair with me?

I'm not necessarily against it I was clearing the circle pair of my predecessor

I can’t explain but read the game and I think it should become obvious why I did a complete 180 on your slot.

I'm so sad...I had a long post typed out but I got signed out for some reason when I clicked preview.

No red is locktown for me now.

I still have a null read. I would say that I no longer have any scumreads on Red, whatsoever. (See my observations table for why I had a null read. I still have a null read because of 185.)

Don't worry. That has happened to me before.

From a catchup point of view thus game blurs
I see pros and cons to pairing w/ scum or town here so I really don't mind ATM who I pair with

If you must tunnel town read me, could you please do it in a corner.

I don't know what this means but it vibes town.

I also like this interaction for both of these people right now.

In post 152, Color Blue wrote: @Star which shape do you want to leave out if we are using that as the elim?

I agree with an earlier sentiment that it would be between Diamond and Heart, and additionally Triangle for me. Snap reaction to Triangle finally posting is to choose them as the elim since their posts are just...bad. However, I can't rule out them just playing like LHF and want to see their progression in the coming days.

Not really, considering it's already been suggested that we lim the lone shape anyway.

In post 37, Star Shape wrote:It's weird playing a game with no RVS...

Since being unpaired doesn't mean automatic death in this game, I can volunteer to be the lone shape. In this scenario, I'll just keep the Delay holstered so it won't be an issue going forward. I'd prefer to be paired of course, but I think this is the easiest way to deal with this situation and make it a non-issue.

And this one as well, perhaps a bit more. Star, why make this sort of post to volunteer if you're going to undercut it immediately with a preference? It comes across a bit LAMIST-y to me.

Because the main attraction of this game is the anonymity and the pairing. I didn't sign up for this game just to go solo and not use my night actions. However I see an easy way to deal with the lone shape Delayer dilemma and have no problem volunteering if that helps town reach our win con more easily.

LAMIST itself doesn't really mean anything to me. If the plan is to lim the solo shape and you think I'm scum purposely volunteering to put myself in a situation that likely gets me voted out, then I suppose I resolve myself here, don't I?

I don't think that we're deadset on actually killing the person who is left out yet even though it's bandied around so this reply doesn't really mean anything to me either? Like it's by no means concrete so you can just... say things this early and then they don't happen later. Basically we impasse.

I know this, that's exactly why I suggested it. :/

Having someone volunteer to go solo and state that they won't use the Delay makes this problem a lot simpler to deal with. If the solo shape isn't guaranteed to be eliminated, that will hang over the game if they're forced into the position instead of by choice. A shape who is essentially rejected by every color could be scum, which is bad for obvious reasons. But they could also be a disgruntled townie who feels hurt/wants to feel useful, and may use the Delay for emotional reasons. A volunteer circumvents all of that entirely.

Could you go further into detail with these takes?

I want to see proggression too for Triangle. Currently, I have managed to finally move Heart from my null reads. Triangle does post in a way which seems super light-hearted.

In post 150, Toogeloo wrote:The reason I thought Diamond TMI'd was because as far as I know, we don't know what our powers or modifiers are. So when he claimed that Mafia would have a Roleblock, I assumed he was talking about one of their powers and not the delay action (which isn't a Roleblock).

Shortly after, Pentagon states he didn't like Diamond, which is why I considered Pentagon a good spot to pair with.

I haven't really been trying to scum hunt, so much as figure out who would be my ideal partner.

I think this post pretty much never comes from scum.

Continually getting the feeling Arrow and Circle are town. Would like to pair with one of them, I recall one of them paired with someone already so I will probably be courting the remainder.

Their opinion on the lack of RVS. Circle was my RVS pair vote. The question was RQS.

I got the sense that was an attempt at RQS. Not a stellar execution but probably a town thing actually. Also like your course correction.

Are we allowed to read into posts that are main slips?

Arrow and Yellow are paired.
