Access to the masonry?

Dammit I'm gonna have to read the game mechanics, aren't I?

Dude
Should I be worried of people jumping on firebringer?
I’m starting to get a bit worried

Also dude
I don’t have masons
What the fuck are those

...

I'm confused

Probably not, it's a big game
I'd honestly ask for a private PT for the game but I'm on good pace to do the "50 posts per IRL day" thing and if I have to compress posting later I can multiquote

Ugh I actually read his ISO and there was asking for fruit and shit. What is fruit. Why is he asking for it.

I'm going to figure this out tomorrow.

Fruit is a game mechanic, read the OP

Anything you need to tell me before I sleep?

Oh, Pine hands them out for WIFOM purposes. Gee. So Katsuki was goodvoting I see.

Uhhhh
This is pretty good scumhunting music.

I am so confused on the idea lmm pace for this game. So far It has felt pretty ideal tbh. 25 pages a day is a lot, even with a large playerlist.

I actually think that a good amount of us, if not all, should ask for fruit. I think it will be interesting to see who Pine gives fruit to. It does create some wifom, but it could be useful.

bargain: fruit

Pine, hit me up. You might be evil, but you're still a fox.

This is bad and completely neglects all the reasons for not getting fruit

I'm not actually in the "Nobody should ask for fruit" camp ftr, I just wanted more info from Pine

I think Alisae should decide who bargains for fruit and keep the numbers of people asking for fruit to a minimum, so that Pine does not have much choice in who to give fruit to.

I also think that blindly rushing into the mechanic is extremely foolish, and the course of action scum would encourage.

I get why people wouldn't read all that's been posted so far, but something about Chickadee's post feels funny to me. I'm not saying she's scummy, just something about the tone is registering strangely to me.

I'm not really familiar enough with everyone playing, even Pine, Jingle, and Alisae, to really speculate how they may have chosen scumteam and who would do well here, so I'm not going to speculate on that. That feels like far too much of a distraction. Same with the fruit. I think that fruit will be important later and is a good mechanic to keep track of, but it's very much going to be an incredible distraction. I don't think just Pine will use it that way, but everybody honestly could.

I realize this really isn't all that much of real substance or anything, but this is what I'm thinking so far, and I think the best thing I can do in this game is to share my thoughts. I'm not really one who builds solid readlists or has all sorts of logic to back up a lot of what I think, so apologies in advance if that's what you're looking for.

I'll probably have a reads list out today

No promises though

Just caught xof commenting on Chickadee so I'mma comment on that rather than doing anything useful

town!chickadee tonally feels kind of mysterious and somewhat reserved - I'd suggest townreading off if you believe she believes what she's saying rather than if her tone reads intuitively the way you'd expect because imo her mafia tone is pretty different to what I'd expect

plus she's easier to read once there's more content

idk which one of these I'm meant to be posting

Agree that Chickadee tone is ringing alarm bells

I don't really like pops all that much off p2ish (but I love her as a person <3) but Gamma is still town!Gamma. Ank is somewhere in null/nulltown.

I don't feel all that worried about it. Don't overthink it too much.

Also: sorry jjh. Last post for today unless I'm bored/awake tonight

Sure, you do that. See how it works out

Pretty sure he means you should only make 2 pages of posts (50 posts by default) a day. You're fine currently.

Yup.

Honestly, though, what need have you for fifty posts? Ten should be more than enough if you're being respectful of the other players in the game.

VOTE: FIREBRINGER

Why did you choose me with your #1 pick btw Pine?

According to my dossier, you are solitary, highly skilled, enigmatic, and opaque to read. You're a bulldog, tenacious, and you have the audacity to pull off (frankly) epic gambits.

I have every choice over who I give fruits to. This mechanic was designed to be resistant to leashing and punishing to attempts to ignore it. I hold nearly all the cards with regards to this mechanic. You can either patronize my fruit vending or let me distribute them as I desire.

I've given all the information I ever intend to, other than the power granted by the fruit on offer.

Why you trying to control others bruh?

Again, no fruit has yet been offered.

Damn. Ali got half of you. This may be more difficult than expected.

He's one of the most fun knights you can bring on a given journey, if a little bit hotheaded. He's also clearly above reproach as a denizen of the dark, dank forest where Pine lives as he's followed everywhere he goes by brightness and warmth.

I like how I am part of the flavor. thank you jingle
