Tl;dr leaving the dance is basically a giant trap and we shouldn't do it.
On a quick read of the thread I don't like OkaPoka.
Yeah, but I don't really like this attitude. I think you're more capable of having some sort of plan than this even in pregame rather than just throwing your hands up and being like "lolnocontent".GuyInFreezer wrote:You're asking me that question in pre-game.
Any actual opinions on the game so far?In post 94, OkaPoka wrote:what even is obvtowning
I guess that's sort of what I meant. I don't really know how to explain it.In post 95, GuyInFreezer wrote:I rarely plan things. I just come things up on the spot.In post 93, pienyan wrote:I think you're more capable of having some sort of plan
Can you give examples?In post 98, OkaPoka wrote:chennis is looking like a tryhard by saying too many things that really go without saying
I'm not really sure what you mean here, is this agreement or you saying you don't like his answer?In post 106, Sakura Hana wrote:I could easily give those examples myself lol.
I don't really think so, but w/e.In post 116, Sakura Hana wrote:It's me saying that the examples are obvious.

Bleh I guess I shouldn't have even said anything.In post 232, chennisden wrote:Why?
Are you planning on it?
I don't think I like this.In post 247, chennisden wrote:maybe we should "psuedo-pair"? idk.
i don't think preventing people from pairing early will work
Can you answer this?In post 245, pienyan wrote:(I figure you'd only do it with me but you don't seem to be townreading me?)
You recall I'm not the sort who uses neighbor/lover PTs much, right?In post 269, Sakura Hana wrote:I got a slight townlean on you.
But I figured it'd be more fun to try and read you as a lover pair.
I thought it was sort of town how he was one of the first people to try to step up and actually take the lead over the game, talk strategy and the like (even if he did state the obvious sometimes). These games have so much of a tendency to devolve into chaos and most of the time I wouldn't expect scum to go 100% counter to it like he tried to do. It's not unfakeable though.In post 320, Sakura Hana wrote:Why does ANYONE think chennis is town?
Why?In post 381, Firebringer wrote:chennisden and pienyan are scum.
Ok, you pass.In post 399, Firebringer wrote:pienyan i don't like ur interactions with sakura so far. I know scum!u would go for a pocket on her and that's where i see that going. SO YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's more just a courtesy than anything.In post 424, Sakura Hana wrote:I mean who really cares who has checked in or not.
I'd rather simply read her in the game thread. Now, for you:In post 468, Ankamius wrote:Pie, how confident are you that you can read Sakura in a PT?
Explain these reads, especially how on earth did you arrive at Bingle being town.In post 470, Ankamius wrote:GIF is town
Bingle I want to think is town?
Oka looks very bizarre this game
As far as I remember you don't like playing scum and there's a lot of things as scum that you simply struggle to fake. As long as that hasn't changed I don't see any reason to question the validity of my read here.In post 485, Ankamius wrote:I think it's probably been too long since we played, pie
Ooh, I do love a challenge.In post 493, Ankamius wrote:My scum game is a lot better now than it was years ago, pie
Do you not have any thoughts on the proposed Sakura-me pairing?In post 494, Gamma Emerald wrote:Tbh with GiF Sakura and Bitmap already sorted as town imo we're already almost to auto win if Cheeky pairs with Sakura
1. For what reasons?In post 500, Gamma Emerald wrote:My response to the first also answers the second
I'm concerned those scumreading you are right in which case I don't want one of my stronger townreads pairing with you
No one is going to be leaving the dance this game.In post 517, Golden Robster wrote:has anybody purposefully paired up with a scummy person or their fos and intentionally left the dance

I don't like you trying to meta me when I haven't played at all in the 2 years since that game.In post 527, Gamma Emerald wrote:Idk I feel like in past town games, specifically TGIFPiegirln, you just have felt more genuinely sorty.
OK, well keep my rust in mind. I'm not going to come out the gate with strong reads on everyone when 1. it's less than 12 hours into the game and 2. I'm still getting a feel for actually playing again in the first place.In post 541, Gamma Emerald wrote:SomewhatIn post 536, pienyan wrote:I don't like you trying to meta me when I haven't played at all in the 2 years since that game.In post 527, Gamma Emerald wrote:Idk I feel like in past town games, specifically TGIFPiegirln, you just have felt more genuinely sorty.
I'm sorting the game, but I don't really have strong reads yet - were you expecting me to?
I am putting in the effort, this is what you're getting. Take it or leave it.In post 547, Gamma Emerald wrote:Well I'd like to see some effort rn

It's such a bad, bullshit reason to justify your read. It reads like you wanted to continue your pressure from early game on a lynchbait townie and you're reaching for a reason to do so.In post 558, Gamma Emerald wrote:Why
You had a few posts where you seemed to be questioning him (albeit without declaring a firm read).In post 566, Gamma Emerald wrote:Where did I previously pressure Oka, this is a massive reach imo
He looks better as in his play seems to have a lot more direction and makes more sense now as opposed to his first few posts which just seemed like pointless blending in.In post 570, Vecna wrote:How come? He looks like massive lynchbait. If he looks different as scum then isnt it obvious whats going on here?In post 309, pienyan wrote:I think Oka looks sort of better now tbh. But people saying he's the type who looks like a lynchbait as town and not as scum throws a wrench in that.
^This is why. She seems to be following the thread but isn't discussing anything that's going on in the game at all. Her first few posts felt forced as if she couldn't come up with anything to say, and even with the few posts she has made since then (which have all been in response to pairings) there's not any content there. I think it reads more like she's sort of just latching onto it for easy posts to make and less like detached play.In post 583, Kirari Momobami wrote:You would try to break up true love, wouldn't you? Think of all the time that poor Grob put into that photoshop too!In post 580, Ankamius wrote:I think I want to pair with GRob this game
OK, then what is it?In post 591, Gamma Emerald wrote:There's much more to the association than just the pressure to pair with GRob imo,In post 577, pienyan wrote:But the key point here is the fact your reason is horrible. The game's barely started and your whole reason for scum reading him (a player who's had a lot of negative attention) is not only a preflip association, but with someone who's barely even posted - even if you firmly scum read GR it's just way too early and too bullshit to scum read Oka tying them together. It just looks like a forced reason to push lynchbait and what you're doing here feels like a nitpicky argument without actually trying to question my point.
Golden Robster had 5 posts at the time you declared you thought Oka was pushing you to pair with him.In post 591, Gamma Emerald wrote:and I don't see how GRob or Oka had "barely posted". Also, I don't regard Oka as lynchbaity town, Ank, Fire, and some other should back me up on that. I don't buy into anything you've said, and the fact you're trying to combat me like this just makes me even more inclined to stick to my guns given I already do not trust you.
The point I'm making is less about you considering him "lynchbait" or not as in how easy he is to push to a lynch; it's more that right now he's an easy target to push with a lot of attention on him, and so pushing him is an easy way to go with the flow.In post 591, Gamma Emerald wrote:Also, I don't regard Oka as lynchbaity town, Ank, Fire, and some other should back me up on that.
No. Why would you assume Oka pestering you to pair with GR was a connectionIn post 609, Gamma Emerald wrote:GRob angling to pair with Oka early was also a point against those two, since Oka was under fire. As I said I felt like those two should just be able to be left out and that was why, they both acted in ways that made me feel they were partners, and it doesn't matter how much they posted, I still felt it was rather partner-indicative. As for thinking I'm aiming for easy targets, I'm not, the fact that Oka decided to badger me about pairing with GRob made me really concerned.
That's not a reason for anything when GR literally hadn't posted. How on earth do you jump to the conclusion that it must be because they're both scum instead of, I don't know, Oka just following up on you talking about it in pregame???In post 627, Gamma Emerald wrote:Because I'd alluded to the possibility before the game started and it seemed like he was trying to arrange a marriage that would benefit their side, so to speak.
This is so disingenuous. You're just trying to resort to sarcasm since you don't know how to argue back.In post 627, Gamma Emerald wrote:And I guess I'm sorry I actually am thinking about things on higher levels than you because that's how it feels, I was already thinking about possible connections and you weren't ready for that.
In post 426, OkaPoka wrote:gamma is going to pair with golden rob me thinks
So based on these two posts, and then GR's 6 posts after that, you decided they were scum together and that this was a strong enough connection to be your sole reason for scum reading Oka. Yeah, OK.In post 477, OkaPoka wrote:gamma r u going to pair with golden rob
I'm planning on going with Sakura at the moment. Sorry ;_;In post 638, Vecna wrote:Actually, what needs to happen here is pretty clear-cut. Pienyan seems like the slot that is in a good need of sorting, but that will provide for a damn power-partner if that sorting can happen properly.
And the slot actually talks, which is a win.
Pienyan, wanna dance?
Uhm. But she has?In post 651, CheekyTeeky wrote:Don't you find it odd that she hasn't responded to you?
Is it scummy when the person in question has no other scum reads? I.E. doesn't have any reads that are actually based on someone's own play?In post 665, Ankamius wrote:It's weird but is it scummy weird
I've done things like that occasionally and I don't see the difference between town doing that and scum doing that
