I’d much prefer another creative variation on the Pooky Death Scroll edition to this.

The wallpost reads like they actually just read the thread and shared every thought they had and didn't hide any from us and then they got to the end and realized they hadn't said anything, but they felt sorry not sorry cause town can do no wrong, and stated such with the right tone. You can get a lot of really really scumreads and townreads off of correctly discerning people's attitudes towards their own content (that's what elitelling is and some people say it's the most unfairly powerful tell so)
The discussion around the infinity comment made me realize shading a townblock for size without picking anyone can like, benefit scum without putting oneself in harm's way and that make sense. I wonder if that's getting to become too much of the game at this point.
I think it was skitter asked: if you want to go purely on past games, I should be able to read Pooky (the reason Pooky is treating it as poignant is that it's been a read against town consensus in the past) (is that what poignant means it means kind of the same thing as salient right?)
Skitter and Gloria both don't like my Ydrasse analysis, but Gloria's reaction was "I don't really feel this but I don't have any reason to believe this was manufactured and anyway I think the slot it's about
is
town so I'm happy about it"; skitter's reaction was, she doesn't even think Ydrasses is scum, but she cares a lot whether my point was stupid anyway. VOTE: skitter
I will dayvig Pooky the next time he says this game's plot is not about a wedding between me and Morning Tweet (who so far seems like a town bride but if it turns out she's scum there will still be a wedding it will just be even more forbidden)
This post is a weird mix of remembering things not necessarily in order and reading some pages out of order on accident so sorry if it's chronologically messy.
Disagree with you on Skitter.

I don’t understand Skitter but Gypyx and Dunn are fine though.
He really loves twists, romance, and nontraditional narrative arcs.
so here are some guesses that went through my head about what is actually going on.
The Princess does not want to be married - She does not love her suitor whom she has been promised to, she sees the evil in his heart - he loves not her but power.
The food was stolen for a trip away from the Castle for she will be traveling many leagues to find a New World where she can be safe and free.
She has disguised herself among the castle workers and will recruit those she trusts to help her with her quest - now since a Princess cannot be a
Villain
- I think she is something of the equivalent of a Delayed IC and we are playing something fairly close to a Mountainous Game.
The evil prince has dispatched his henchmen to search for her as he has noticed she is missing from her quarters - the villains seek to stop her escape and wish the wedding to go ahead as planned - they have evil in their hearts - they hope to capture her.
Mech Speculation
After the initial 2 launches, we will have the Princess be revealed as an IC, she will try to form a coalition of 6 that she can trust - this will end in a town victory if it is successful, if not we will move into the Ball Room for a dance game where players will pair up into lover neighborhoods.
Please mafia gods let this be the setup, this sounds freaking amazing. I call Hoppy! <3

Annie, Anivia and Zilean for life. I could top, mid and support as all of them at one point
Also, PENTAKILL.
In post 668, Ydrasse wrote:i... am not vibing a lot with hopkirk's posting
like, he's mad cute but his posting doesn't inspire much joy + i feel his positioning around skitter in this sort of "null town land but also maybe scum" just... doesn't seem good.
*throws Tibbers*
I need to ISO some people I think, I need to try and confirm some of my reads. TGP for one, infinity, gypx and trq. Will come on a less pain day though
I kind’ve like Flea’s enthusiasm and the naturalness of their posting.

was i meant to say something about you not reading the setup? am i meant to be sarcastic? was i meant to take the setup speculation to extremes?

in an absence of love/cuteposting i think it’s easy to read gypyx as scum because he’s going to naturally feel ~off~ in comparison to everyone else but so far he’s playing like he usually does as town fmpov
In post 400, PookyTheMagicalBear wrote:"Like imo it's the opposite, if scum did pregame choices, it's more likely that jessie is scum"
What does this quote mean Gypyx?
If you get to recruit scumpartners pregame and you don't recruit Jesse you're throwing because she's excellent at scum!
I don't know how Gypyx knows this cause I've never seen them play but they must have played somewhere together, clearly.
Why think about recruiting specifically?
because it shows that gypyx was like following from step to step and it asks a very good question for someone unaware of silent star: menagerie
I am caffine fueled still
