Open 779: Pick Your Power X/Y Game Over!

[skitter30]

like ... idk
yeah the annoyance did remind me of how you reacted in the newbie but you were at least like actively particpating there and not really here

tbf i have no idea if it's actually scum-indicative because i'm not sure that i've actually played with scum!you ... but at the same time i also no longer feel like i have a reason to townread you

[Datisi]

you've modded for scum me tho

i mean i could tell you that scumtisi would actively pretend to give a shit about the game but i know self-meta is ehh

[Melody]

The "mech discussion" was because I'm trying to figure out if Fark's reasoning is genuine. Why do you scumread us, skitter? I really don't get it.

~Dawn

[skitter30]

yeah fair

i guess is a long-winded way of saying i no longer townread you and you're more around null now

do you have any reads tho that you'd like to share?

[skitter30]

i disagree with many of your takes and they feel kinda manufactured to me

[Datisi]

I just lost a post fk me

do you have any reads tho that you'd like to share?

not really but

don't wanna lynch in aldus/skit/ico/alim/dc/i guess also drew/fark

that's about as "reads" as i can do

[Melody]

Datisi, didn't you think think we were town earlier?

~Dawn

[Datisi]

it feels like a few years ago but i think i did

[Farkset]

Questions to everyone:

- What are the odds that melody/cat are scum together?
- What are the odds of 1 scum in those two?

Take a look at 580 and 809 for primary reference. Melody & Cat, do you have any update to that?

I guess that from your POV it should be melody/cat/farkset because my reads are a close match to those ones, but that's the reason why i have a hard time scumreading them right now - like, either i am immensely wrong and they are both scum (i find it unlikely), or two of us are immensely wrong and the third one is scum (also unlikely).

[Alduskkel]

imo Melody is scum and CSF is town

Melody flipping scum is definitely +equity for town!CSF

both scum would be surprising due to the wagon hop by Melody from me to CSF

[Alduskkel]

like I'm not townreading CSF based on what they've posted but more on how the rest of the game has behaved with regard to the slot, if that makes sense?

[Farkset]

We can explore the world of scum melody while we have time

Do you think there is a reason why scum!melody would lead a wagon against you specifically?

You (aldus) are... pretty much their only scumread right now if i am not missing anything. I guess i could see a melody+brass/jackson+iconeum team maybe? Would that fit the current gamestate?

-Farkran

[Alduskkel]

Because I'm kinda lynchalicious? Not only in this game but in a lot of my recent town games (Micros 900, 930, and 935) I've been suspected a lot, although it didn't always result in me getting lynched

Since Melody is a secret hydra they could easily be aware of this.

I can see Melody + brass but why do you throw in Jackson/Iconeum in there? Do they have associations with Melody?

[skitter30]

i disagree with many of your takes and they feel kinda manufactured to me

@ melody was this going to go anywhere?

[Farkset]

I can relate to your first sentence, because i have yet to see a game where i am not the d1 top wagon lol, it happens as both alignments though and it's for very different reasons than you, so i don't particularly get why you are lynchbaity by nature. I have no clue about who melody heads are, too.

About Jackson/iconeum, and especially for the latter, i can see a melody/ico team with the premise that i am wrong on all my other reads. They are townlean/nulltowning each other for little reason imo, and i feel like melody should at least scumlean ico based on what i expect from their player profile. But then again, reads based on expectations have failed more than once in my experience, so i don't particularly want to push there today.

Jackson is in a different world to me rn, i would pretty much never lynch the first picker day 1.

pedit: i was answering to aldus but i got caught in a phone call midway writing this post so it took way longer than intended lol

[Dunnstral]

The real neighborizer could be a lower scum pick and he won't get counterclaimed

Until said neighborizer starts, you know, neighborizing people, and it's not the guy who claimed the role

You think scum!us are specifically targeting you? There's far easier pushes this game that draw less attention on the less vocal slots.

I didn't have time to debate them back then. Let's hear why you think that, skitts.

[Doctor Drew]

Why is there so much talk of figuring out partners when we can barely even get a consensus on a lynch?

[DonCorleone]

Yo busy couple of days but I should have time for this tomorrow

Can someone leave an explainer under this on roughly where the game is at since about 10 pages ago

I think I remember someone talking about lynchpools so:

Wouldn’t lynch any of (fark, melody, Dunn, skitt, aldus, csf) today

Willing to compromise outside of that tomorrow, strongly prefer not to go inside that list

[DonCorleone]

To be clear, I wouldn’t say I TR skitt but I don’t see her as a good lynch today whatsoever

[skitter30]

i mean, when you started this push, aldu was kinda an easy target so ....

[skitter30]

I didn't have time to debate them back then. Let's hear why you think that, skitts.

i dislike many of your takes, including but not limited to:

- scum!aldu
- town!jv
- townleaning dats early game
- dislike the alimida progression; it's one of the consensus-y reads; feels like you townbinned him once i shut down the push

furthermore a lot of your reads feel consensus-y to me

also some of your posts just feel kinda pingy (321 tone about drew; evening apologizing for switching off of aldu and onto cats 390

[skitter30]

i will not be here at deadline so if y'all want my vote before then you have about a day to convince me what i ought to be doing instead of what i'm doing rn

i suggest that investigative should be in one of the 4000 lurkers imo

[Cat Scratch Fever]

i really don't think it's something you should have shared tho

I think he’s more likely town because of it
