Oh wait. Different posters. Still want an answer to why Red's bold play looked scummy but it's not like the point of view was weird like I initially thought.
Their opinion on the lack of RVS. Circle was my RVS pair vote. The question was RQS.
RVS pairing right out the gate seems like a bad idea. It's not like normal RVS where a majority has to agree on a lim before there are any consequences, you could have easily been locked into that.
The person accepting would have to answer to why they immediately accepted? This is not Trust Fall where the goal is to pair up in order to escape. You actually have to defend your choices.
Purple, Circle, Arrow. -> All town. Did anyone sneak in.
I support this idea.

I feel like Red is town, as well as Purple. More confident on Purple. I want to see Star post about other things before forming a read there.

i may be happiest pairing with a null read who i can try to sort in private
thats my last thought for the night
Pairing with scum means that they can mess with your role usage. Either side dying means the role stops working.

Pair Yellow
I'm not questioning you being town from this, but what did you like from Yellow to make you choose them?

I like this thinking but the obvious problem is how do we know? Perhaps scum will try to look townie to be left unpaired to get delayer?
I was wrong about this, and do not eel as I did before.

I don't think that's how a delayer works.
I also think it'd be more informative & exciting for us to eliminate the unpaired player.
I do like the way you think about this and think it's more likely to come from town.
If pairs aren’t loverized I think that’s only a good idea if the unpaired slot is the scummiest. If not, that could be suboptimal.
I think we should try to leave scum unpaired, and then eliminate the unpaired player, that way all the abilities can be used N1.
I was talking about 114. I was worried that it would give away that I've never played outside of the Newbie and Normal Queues.
I would not have thought that. You seemed more suave in a way that meant you had a lot of experience in many areas of the site. This probably actually makes me feel better about you, you probably have less ability to dupe me.

The solution here is to either treat a Delay as a scum claim from the Delayer, or just vote out the Delayer. That's why I volunteered, because if I ultimately end up getting scum read then you can just vote me out, and if I'm town read but a Delay happens then you would know I'm scum.
Best case scenario however is that today we find at least one scum that is a Shape, make them go solo, and then vote them out to get rid of scum and the Delayer at the same time.
I’m onboard with that, unfortunately the slot I currently feel the worst about is a color. I should probably review diamond or heart again.
I think sorting the shapes should be something everyone is at least attempting, since the delayer has to be a shape.
In post 143, Pentagon Shape wrote:So I know it isn’t me and unless I’m wrongly reading circle and arrow and it isn’t star, then it would have to be between heart and diamond, assuming only one scum in shapes?
But with one extra power, it would seem likely at least one.
I really don’t have a read on either but based soloey by PoE, scum is probably likely in at least one. Red looks the worst from the colors with my liking yellow, orange, blue and maybe purple?
Have no idea on green yet but slots that haven’t impressed me yet are: red, heart, green, diamond.
If any colors want to pick my brain in a PT, ask if you want. I'm not the type of player who initiates pairs in dance games and just consider what offers are tossed my way. Probably less picky given they're not lover pairs.
Will try to pop in again later tonight.
I definitely want to pair up with someone I at least feel like I can work well with. Them being a townread is a bonus but not mandatory.
I never claimed it could, so why do you continue to shade me for something I didn’t do?
so u admt u ddnt ask mod?
slppy slde tme!
I don't like what feels like deliberate mass inclusion of typos, but I'm even less a fan of what feels like you interacting with Pentagon in bad faith. You seem to be fishing for gotcha moments.

Also unless Triangle promises to speak coherently in the PT, I will not be pairing with that one. I want to be able to actually discuss in a PT without having to decipher garbled text.

To be fair, most of my null reads are Shapes. I think that my current reads leave only three as null (Red, Diamond, and Triangle). But then, if everybody else in my reads are Town, then the Mafia has to be my null reads. However, I don't think that it's that simple. I think that by Day 2, my reads would change, especially since nobody's locktown for me and never will be.

I'm not necessarily against it I was clearing the circle pair of my predecessor
Why do you not want to be paired with Circle? Removing existing votes or other actions that are similar is a common practice but the way you say it here, you seem to have a deliberate reason you do not want to pair with Circle.

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.
So you volunteered to be left out, but do not want to be eliminated after being left out. Can you talk about that?
