Answering this in specific detail would be practically main-claiming, but please chalk it up to you misreading my phrasing. "Never make endgame" to me means "murder it and if people won't let me murder it, at least have them agree to not let it to endgame"
I understand. So people have been misinterpreting you this whole time. :o

If only I had been stating that time and time again in my posts, to the point of getting quite irate about it.

I don't really like the pushes on green though. It leaves a bad taste in my mouth because of how literal minded player's approaches have been to them.
They entered the game talking about pacing and the game state and they're doing that, shit pushes or not. It's not like this isn't RVS, a bunch of serious rebuttals doesn't really make me feel better.
Are you referring to votes? You pretty much did a 180 on green are you now convinced Heart is scum? So maybe tell me what I’m not seeing then?

I think you should be more suspicious of people who aren’t questioning things. I have no problem voting out either Heart or Red if I’m convinced on it but posts like this one aren’t really helping me do that.

Okay. That seems to indicate you initially want Red dead first. Why the change? This question is mostly a formality, it shouldn't affect how I perceive you.
VOTE: Yellow
I want to see where this goes.

There isn't much to see, I think Heart is scum because when they got back they made a list. That's pretty much it. I don't like the pushes on Green, so I'm doing a 180.
You think I should be more suspicious on people who aren't questioning things.

You mean incurious players that don't ask what a person means by what they say?
Are you, and let me make sure I understand what you're saying here, scum reading Green because they aren't stopping to ask Heart questions to make sure they're scum?

I feel like everyone has taken a stance on Heart, with a flip it should be possible to see which pushes are scummy and which ones aren't.

No, what I’m saying is challenging Green on their reads is a good thing. I challenge everything, because it’s important to me to feel as confident as I can on whatever vote I ultimately make and I will check out that list the thing tomorrow.

But now that you bring it up, I would obviously welcome more opinions on Heart from more people. That would be extremely helpful to me.

I can't tell if you're joking.

If you're town, you just made yourself a target for pairing by scum

If Heart is scum, I could see this as a possible perspective slip, since I would expect this to occur more to scum than town.

This post strikes me again as off perspective wise. Like why is Heart instructing Purple on how to post, especially since Purple really doesn’t look like they need any help?

In post 573, Heart Shape wrote:I admit I didn't read every word but I didn't get much out of ORange v Pentagon other than the obvious they're not TvS.

Purple and Blue seem to be I guess hesitant to push people too much. I'm just thinking off the top of my head so no specific posts, but they seem to be apologetic in their approach, and that's a missed opportunity in my opinion. I mean every time someone does that it's like why. Why not continue to push people in order to sort.
This post is also interesting. Why is Heart criticizing Purple and Blue for not making stronger pushes when they have yet to make any?

If scum get it, I don't know if that's a terrible thing when we don't know what the powers even are yet.
Another wtf post. This perspective is off. In what world is scum getting delayer a good thing?

In post 576, Heart Shape wrote:RE Triangle, still null for me. I'm not sure if they're serious about their hero solve or just using it to sort people. I think the Red/Traingle pairing could be volatile though just because others seem to be seeing things in them that I'm really not. Whoever, I think Orange, said something about me simplifying Blue's read on Triangle as larping and thus nai, that's exactly what it is.
No idea what to make of this, since I was already paired with Red at the time of this post and if any pairing with Tiangle would logically have been considered “volatile” att, wouldn’t that have been me?

I don't have a whole lot yet. I think this preliminary stage isn't necessarily the best way to locktown or lockscum anyone.
i did not ask you to locktown or lockscum anyone

this seems a curious exaggeration on your part
Take it any way you want. Doesn't make my thinking on this any less valid. I don't know how anyone can have anything but tentative positions until we actually know what's what. Right now people, including myself, are developing reads based on what exactly. We don't even really know what's going on yet.
So again, why criticize Purple and Blue for not making stronger pushes? That stance seems inconsistent with this.

Meta arguments in an anon game, how novel. Forgive me if I don't take your word for it.
No one is asking you to, that doesn’t make it any less true. Reaction reads to getting sr in general are really bad metrics and I really don’t understand why anyone thinks they’re ever indicative of anything, so you don’t even need to know my meta to know that’s a very silly basis for alignment reading anyone.
Imagine injecting self-meta and
then shading someone
for questioning it.
Also don’t like this. I was very clearly NOT “shading” Arrow in this post.

In post 287, Color Blue wrote:The reason I have Star/Diamond as SRs is because I got whiplash reading through Diamond's ISO:



Diamond calls out Star for volunteering and taking it backsies - he calls it a bit-LAMISTY

Later however:



He more or less makes the same kind of LAMisty appeal.

I do think it's possible he is just fustrated town who feels like he is being frozen out - but the game has barely been running for 2? days so I'm not sure that's something that's genuine.

It feels to me that the game state is still wide open and I think people are happy to mingle and talk - we've only paired 2 players so far.

I guess I think if he's town I just want to give him a big hug.

Maybe even if he's scum I would too? I am a sucker for AtE.
Heart apparently takes issue with this post. I don’t understand what’s wrong with it?

In post 877, Heart Shape wrote:So I guess asking Star who they are leaning to delay should figure into this calculus of who to lim
Why should who Star’s leaning to delay be a factor? Shouldn’t that be a majority consensus? Last I checked, Star wasn’t too keen on Arrow, who I think is town, does that make Arrow a good lim? No obviously.
Exactly. How Star is going to use the slot is necessary information. They can say "oh it's going to be used for townie reasons" and just use it however they want. So I wanna know how they're going to use it. And this seems like a particularly difficult thing without even knowing what the powers are. So we should be getting our act together preferably well ahead of the deadline. So what I'm saying is, yes it should be a majority consensus, but there are a lot of variables at play that we can't really say "Okay if ___ is limmed then delay the ______ & ______ team." I wanna know who is going to be delayed before we flip someone bc we probably aren't going to have much time in twilight to talk about that.
In post 883, Heart Shape wrote:Another thing this does is prevent Star from going off book. If Star agrees to delay the ____ & _____ team, and that team initiates its power, if the power fails, we know Star likely delayed them.
I actually shouldn’t have tr Heart for this. This is a post that could just as easily have been made by scum. Nothing is of course remotely suspicious about discussing mech but Heart seems to be focussed on that a lot more than in making reads. I think I’m starting to see what Green and Arrow are seeing now.

Looking at this I don't think there's a s/s team. At least not one that pops out. With that premise, there could be 3 teams with scum in them or 2 teams with scum and Star is scum. Red & Pentagon and Blue & Circle I think may be most likely, with Red being scum in that pairing and Blue in the other. I didn't like Blue's treatment of Diamond, and I've gotten bad vibes from Red both pre- and post-substitution.
Still don’t understand this read on Blue, I think they’ve been really townie. Why no further explanation on red read?

Another thing that caught my eye, all of these symbols. I’m going to assume that “#” is possible scumread, “*” is a possible nullread and having both in the case of Star is nullscum?

But Green is never mentioned anywhere before in Heart’s ISO as a scumread and there is no symbol next to blue.
