i'll have like, an actual post in a bit. maybe. didnt realize i let this game slip so far, it was a bit of a rapid-fire blur for me when i dipped out but it seems to've calmed down now. prism's posts will be, uh, interesting; i obviously dont (cant!) really agree with some of it, but i appreciate that the posts are closer to my "language" than puppy's (like, less shitposty, more deconstructive-analytical).

okay not much of a post sorry

ngl i thought this meant that there was one confirmed townie neighborhood (2 plaeyrs) and everyone else was unconfirmed. this being (1 group of 2/1 and other 5/1 makes more sense)

idk about this one lol. it's not totally inconceivable but it seems a pretty odd mistake to make.


i very much stand by the whole "i dont get why puppy feigns mechanical enthusiasm as scum" thing (and, i think prism's take on this is kinda bad and weird, do you really think that holds up on a reread?), but i agree that puppy is super questionable throughout the kuriyama interaction. the big one for me is:

In post 49, Brighter Puppy wrote:actually i think ur town. so now im gonna stop talking to u.

puppy isnt exactly contradicting themself here, it is possible to believe that someone is "searching for reasons to throw at me" and also town, especially in rvs; but idk, this specific presentation of the idea is subjectively weird to me. i think to some extent firebringer does just read weird to me though. i like the way kuriyama probes puppy with questions about hydra chat on page five, it's a good angle. puppy vs. prism is similarly bad for puppy imo, i think prism mightve pointed this out somewhere but im not sure.

i expect to have thoughts on a couple of other players relatively soon, but most of you are all really null to me. most of you are puppy, judging by their postcount.

In post 231, Prism wrote:I'm going to combine a strategy critique here with a criticism of the slot. If we lim in the small pool we NEVER hit 5 way ELO is the key counterpoint, and the clear is not nearly enough to justify going out of your way to seek the scenario (20->25% EV in 5 way, probably more w/ kingmaker mech, countered by better odds+getting a clear in 7p instead)

And I absolutely think she should know better.

thanks, i guess <3 and tbh yeah if you got me on a good day i probably would know better

Can you remind me what my take is on this and why it is bad?

Very short post, long drive atm and am just stopped for gas

(Being more explicit, I am very confident I did not weigh in on that at all)

Oh, my reaction to YOUR take on it, I see

Well, will revisit when I get home but it hit me at both my skim and actual read-through.

So yes!

Fire claims to scumread Dunnstral, so i ask why and he says death to pirates.
This is the level of solving we are dealing with folks.

What thoughts do you have about the game so far that aren't about trolling your hydra partner?

I townread the intense players.

- Norwee

Can you put some names there?

Is MC Esther related to MC Hammer?

I think that qualified you and Prism? Some others come a bit close, but certainly not enough.

- Norwee

Then again, are you Pooky? Retract my townread in that case.

- Norwee

Let's say you townread me/prism.

Why is Dwlee out of your POE for large pool?

I've never said Dwlee is out of my POE for large pool.

- Norwee

Ok why is your partner focusing on Dunn/STD ~?

Did he talk about his dwlee read at all?

Esther, I'm assuming that the vote comes from wanting to do group of 3.

Can you talk about the two options more explicitly FYPOV?

My concern is essentially that you were trying to give a read and interact substantively, but I didn't feel like there was any depth to it at all.

My interaction with Cabd was different because it was a direct call-out rather than a tag-along to someone else's point, but the comparison was never really the point.

How would i know what he's doing, i'm not his mom.
Do you have questions for me or do you just want to talk to Fire?

- Norwee

prism wants me to post more because i'm posting a story in our PT

so here is me posting more

my reads are kind of just vibe/gut how i feel. fire trying super hard seems pretty town. i like kuriyama's interaction with fire. prism is maybe a loose read but i lean town there. i didn't like todoyaki or whatever their name is with their opening statement and since then they haven't convinced me they are town plus odds are good so

FWIW I am looking forward to the next chapter of Captain Slade & Doctor Zhiv

it is posted!

I think it's an absolute shame that you are not contributing to our romantic space opera as you are by far the most talented writer in the room.
