Yeah.
Ironically, Noraa death cursed herself by virtue of making (or accidentally making but W/E) a "townslip" right after bragging about faking townslips as scum.
Take the L, assume you're dogfood, play to win.

Does Noraa think she immediately dies if scrolled?
That would explain a lot.

It's just an overwhelmingly anti-Noraa game in a lot of ways, because I'm seeing an eager and experienced town out for blood and Noraa just sort of plays Mafia the way I browse for groceries. This matchup always ends in Noraa going down. There is no survival possible for Noraa in this player list, regardless of alignment.
My town read is based on stuff I can't /really/ convince anyone with, so why am I bothering to bring it up again?
Honestly, I just sort of started typing and then I imagined Noraa as an unspeakably adorable cartoon cat staring up with big watery eyes at a cartoon anvil the size of a small house falling towards her with the words "Death Curse Mafia Game" slapped on the side in big red block letters and I knew I had to share with the class.
I don't know this person, but I love them.

I admit, I chuckled quite a bit at the metaphor, yeah.

I'm beaming over here because she's in the game.

So... Noraa if town has settled on rageshooting LLD, it seems.
Hopefully this serves as a learning example of how not to get into this kind of a hole again.

This is a train wreck in VERY slow motion.

no longer regretting not joining in with the pace of this thing. like what mush is doing a lot. isis keeps moving up.
thru page 32:
town reads (strongest -> weakest):
LLD, MUSH, pooky, adorable, fidget, bell, theta alpine, taylor, Isis, noraa, toogeloo, Flea
null:
gloria cleary, lapsa, hopkirk
scum reads (strongest -> weakest):
unowen, shellyc, Zdenek, Vault Dweller, MURDERCAT

Why is Adorable so high and why is shellyc such a hard scumread
And I will be very disappointed in Noraa if she's town and shoots LLD.
You fucked up and didn't read the open setup. Sucks. Don't kill other obvtown over it.

I wonder if the murder-train has meal hour or on-board concessions?
Posted: Thu Oct 22, 2020 8:11 am
by Syryana
It's definitely got concessions. I've been taking outrageous advantage of the free popcorn.
I will say though it's amusing watching LLD call Pooky a fucking genius for suggesting they scroll Noraa third when she scumread Theta for literally the exact same thing 5 pages ago

There's no way i'd be able to keep up with this
I think noraa might actually be town but is largely just digging her town grave
Isis is being *rather* weird for her

I dont really vibe the town!taylor thing either
Posted: Thu Oct 22, 2020 8:14 am
by Syryana
Me neither but Taylor is exactly the kind of slot that never survives to LyLo so I don't care

it's really hard to take the emotion out of it even when you're much older than she is

adorable wears her heart on her sleeve, i believe she'd going after noraa with genuine conviction here and i doubt she makes the "i don't mind getting the scroll" comment as mafia. she is too pure.
shelly's whole posting just reeks of deviousness with the way she was trying to set up bell and isis as teamed with nora, her whole interaction with primary scumread unowen was bad where she tossed him a list of random names and he arranged them with no commentary, and she just says "insightful" like what the hell is that. does not feel like genuine scumhunting.

early hesitation toward the votes on nora felt believable and not in a towncred hunting way, but then 316 kind of spoils that. and looking at the iso everything since then has been very safe. but probably doesnt lock horns with lld like this as scum? because that's just -EV for no good reason if she's wrongly tunneled. it would be akin to running into the path of an oncoming truck. you just let her do her thing until eventually someone kills her for being wrong.
on page 38 and think toogeloo more likely town now

could be, i admit, it just feels like in this game you just get strung up for TMI if you defend nora lmao

Fair lol
But it was also the first major defense, like before that was the state of the game almost

Uh oh, wonder if that was an isis-choice replace or some shit went down.

What another? Did I miss a replace-out?

LLD's spicy pivot to hopkirk is good and i am jealous i didn't get to it in my readslist before i saw it
now in context i...just have a hard time seeing taylor-scum playing this way. like regardless of hopkirk's alignment she doesn't doesn't fight the swing here it gets her in trouble. no, taylor plays things very safe if scum. her being obstinate and rattling people's cages is very likely town-indicative for her
isis replacement is sad, hope it wasn't the game atmosphere
