how do you weigh up your certainty about titus's posts with the possibility she's mod-confirmable town?
Do you think someone who should know more than we do about the setup, how the shards work, etc., would make that fake narrative hold up? She would be pretending to know even less about the game than any townie who took a moment to skim the setup description post.
I'm not convinced she's town by a very, very long shot.
I'm weighing that against giving the time needed for her claim to resolve...or not.
Spoiler:
Honestly, I am not quite sure. That is one of the reasons she made it into my scum pile, but not the person who received my vote.
If we want to let her claim resolve itself, then that requires us to commit to powering her up. And so far, that does not seem like the direction that we are headed. Or is that something that you would want us to consider?
Spoiler:
I don't know what we'll decide to do yet. Our available mutual free time to really discuss nuts and bolts is going to be limited for the next couple days. realistically, probably limited for longer than that.
You're right that there doesn't appear to be an immediate appetite to power her up. Even if she's town, I'm not sure the tradeoffs are worth adding to the demonic count.

Ffery's too cabd sins in a past life hurt to ever take my hand again.
Unwnd doesn't like the idea that I can have multiple playstyles.
It's vexing as shit coming from townreads but I'm gonna keep trying because it's all I've got.

Do you think she'd be thinking on that level?
Like, scum titus figuring wed be too scared to empower her so a FN claim doesnt really matter?
Idk thats a weird train of thought imo
ninja-
I'm just trying to figure out why this game feels so fucking hard
but that post reminds me of nacho in mylo

But its weird to swap it from you to me though, right? I feel like I dont have as much pull this game as morph did in yggdra.
Nobody does.
This day is playing out to be unusually egalitarian compared to basically every game I've played since coming back for FGO I

It's not a train of thought I was having. It makes me shudder to think what kind of scum team would have her back for something like that.

What post?
My life would be so much easier if you were in the habit of quote-replying.

I am one of the sole proprietors that it is nearly impossible to play 1:1 in every game. When you're dealing with actual human beings and not a set of code by design (see: playing a video game), there are variables that can change. For what seems like no reason in fact. I'm probably not playing exactly like NQN and my goal was to never play like that anyways.
Basically, I think you can believe in what you're saying, but it don't think it acquits from what's come of it.

Does anyone have scum meta for AA9 so I can see the tonal discrepancy?
I feel like her tone is much more intense here (granted as weve seen we have that effect on each other) but I just want to peruse for a scum baseline real quick.
If someone posted this already and I missed it sorry.
ninja-
IM SORRY FFERY
Ive gotten ninjad more this game than even tenet
I was talking about Cabd's post. I was thinking about how Prism was talking in the dead pt about how awful it was we were making nacho tryhard wallpost on page 11 and thats like the vibe I got from that post of Cabd's (2253)

It was deep as a crumb. I didn't think it was all that deep once cabd started talking openly about it.
(it's hilarious that he thought I'd remember peng's hydra's character name from that game, though. I don't even remember my own hydra's character name, offhand.)
Did you miss the entire back and forth with ffery where we said we were a useless doctor a la the poison doctor in Tales of Vesperia?
We never claimed doctor outright but thar she blows.
--PA, going back to doing other shit tonight

@Ffery 2261 When Medea brought up Xmen I discovered mine and Mala's hydra was named Rogue!
Maybe I just didnt put in the effort, but I kept up with a good chunk in tenet and my eyes kinda glazed here. It could be pavlovian after where it got us in tenet, though.

to be precise, you claimed to be more useless than a poison doc in a game with no poisoner.

i don't try to read those code talks at all. you could probably slip in a comment about my mom and i'd completely miss it.
i don't want to rub salt in anything but i am fantasizing about using my vote rn

I just re-checked Vesperia. Now I miss Kazekirimaru and Kagami.

Which is why, although I'll read metaphor crumbs, I'm not slinging them.
I still laugh about that bear, and the missed crumbs the next day.

I honestly feel like im losing the thread of the game a bit and talking myself in circles. I’d really like some data to reevaluate. Unwnds probably right we should end the day soon.
Ninja-
It’s a pretty great game.

The Guardians game, and your good solve while I was still waffling and compulsively rereading, is very much on my mind here with Titus' post that you're shining a light on. I tend to want to use the time on the clock to its fullest. Please don't do something you don't really agree with because nothing seems to be happening.
