I mean - the only thing that really matters in the immediate is that pooky and I are masons. You all can figure out the rest on your own.

[PenguinPower]

Hi skitter!

[PenguinPower]

Pengy town

hell yea mason buddies for life

[PenguinPower]

none of my townreads should leave the game tho cuz if they do i will be sad

But isn't that the point of this game?

[PenguinPower]

It's just a sad game.

[PenguinPower]

Scum want to leave >.>

Everyone wants to leave. We just don't want scum to leave.

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

wow - this was easy

gg

[PenguinPower]

Pooky will you be my soul scumpartner?

Back off.

[PenguinPower]

they could be high impact scum.

I like you.

[PenguinPower]

Oh good - I can’t really read s_s so that helped.

[PenguinPower]

Skit looks better from the skit dats back and forth

[PenguinPower]

Pooky is still my mason for life.

[PenguinPower]

Boop

[PenguinPower]

Given the flavor I'd say there's probably confbias in this read but now that SS is almost conftown then go for it!

What? Who is this directed toward?

[PenguinPower]

I….still don’t understand the confbias part…Are you saying your read on s_s is confbiased? Because…that’s just mechanical lest you both be scum.

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

Is s_s “almost conf town” or “confirmed town?” Does your earlier read have confbias (from where?) or does you current read have confbias (from where) or both (from where)?

[PenguinPower]

You were metareading s_s as town and so gambled a losing move that lucked out.

Cool.

[PenguinPower]

Pooky’s partner used a move like that to secure an early out as scum in pooky’s scum Trust tell game.

[PenguinPower]

Right. Tells are not from meta. Got it.

[PenguinPower]

I don’t even know what the “tell” is so I’m not sure why your can say that

[PenguinPower]

You*

[PenguinPower]

Boop

[PenguinPower]

That was meant to be a <3

[PenguinPower]

Whatever, I don't have to clarify for him, he can clarify for himself.

Kinda what I wanted

[PenguinPower]

Mmmm

[PenguinPower]

Scum can't fake a genuine emotional reaction to posts that town also fell.

[PenguinPower]

^

[PenguinPower]

That’s immensely unhelpful and not even memey.

[PenguinPower]

Lol

[PenguinPower]

Ig we can force t3 to trust different people and see what happens / if they take it ...

Mmm - not there yet. I haven’t played with T3 before but I’m not convinced that this is lockscum.

[PenguinPower]

Possible.

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

I was thinking the same thing.

[PenguinPower]

You don’t think you would be laughing or you don’t think they are the scum team? Because the statement relies on them not being the scumteam.

[PenguinPower]

Agree.

[PenguinPower]

Ss is always trusting here early on, no?

Yes.

[PenguinPower]

I’m sure she meant “don’t do T3 next”

[PenguinPower]

See

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

Unless I suddenly grew a massive pair of balls overnight this is something I never do as scum.

Not sure I want to accept this argument from someone who just faked a guilty on a mafia partner as a traitor.

?

[PenguinPower]

uh....that was....an interesting play.

Yeah - scumread on T3.

[PenguinPower]

How about...no one trusts you.

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

not 100% with whom, though

[PenguinPower]

ahem

[PenguinPower]

what?

[PenguinPower]

mmm

[PenguinPower]

She misread me in the last game we played unless you want to blame bork for that.

[PenguinPower]

lol

[PenguinPower]

yup

[PenguinPower]

As I said and Datisi also said, in the universe with the {S_S, T3} scumteam it would basically be throwing for him to instantly trust me back because it all but confirms T3 is scum; even if we weren't sure no one would ever pair with him.

Eh - I don't think temporal proximity even matters at this point. If s_s flips scum, T3 is never being trusted. Simple as that.

[PenguinPower]

I'm not sure there is anything to know better about.

[PenguinPower]

That reads funny but I'm sticking with it.

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

This game is going to have a stupid team like Skitter/Pooky

that would be fun

Only for you two and it would break my heart.

[PenguinPower]

I wouldn't be too opposed to S_S accepting but given that he's generally seen as town I wonder if it's not better to keep his voice around.

We have to get to parity with scum and there are deadlines?

[PenguinPower]

I'm not sure what I can do. I'm not opposed to ss accepting. Datisi is kind-of-lean town as in I probably wouldn't trust but if others have a good read on him then go for it.

[PenguinPower]

man i kinda want ss/ums to flip now just to see if SS is red now haha

Yeah I figured that was where Datisi's post was going.

I think I probably will accept Umlaut, especially since I have a longish V/LA coming up and I don't want to hold up the game.

Eh - that’s cool. I don’t really have an opinion.

[PenguinPower]

Oi - see my mena/skitteR scum comments in other games. It’s a ritual I need to perform.

[PenguinPower]

meh - seems fine

[PenguinPower]

indeed

[PenguinPower]

Oh also i forgot to say that i kinda dislike all of ur reads as enumerated in the above post

All of them?

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

Someone help me understand why vulture is towny.

[PenguinPower]

Am I doing a good job modding? This is my first time. Let me know what I can do to improve some things.

Sure - post game.

[PenguinPower]

Someone help me understand why vulture is towny.

I had some glimmer of townpings the first day irl but basically nai since then
He's somewhere around null for me rn

This aligns more with my current thinking.

[PenguinPower]

I mean - me asking right after he made that statement was an insulation I wanted him to elaborate…

[PenguinPower]

F’ing autocorrect - insinuation

[PenguinPower]

Sometimes we hope that many people other than the direct target would weigh in without the subject of the inquiry preempting the discussion but here we are.

[PenguinPower]

I mean - you are positing that I accept a trust from this player (whom I do not know) and I don’t particularly have a town read on so I assumed you would make at least a bit of effort to help me understand why.

[PenguinPower]

I wasn’t looking to debate, just seeking understanding.

[PenguinPower]

You said that after my request, yes.

[PenguinPower]

I mean - if you are both town I would be comfortable with that I think.

I tr skitteR more than most others.

[PenguinPower]

[PenguinPower]

Are you an alt? We’re talking meta reads and you’re fairly new in terms of join date so I’m curious.

Feel free to tell me to beat sand.

[PenguinPower]

Heard.

[PenguinPower]

skitter, consider that I have expressed a willingness to pair with vulture and the easy way for them would be to just follow me along(since they do not know my meta here as my identity isn't quite public within this game afaik)

You were alt guessed fairly publicly by s_s and T3 if that factors in.

[PenguinPower]

Wow - slow game suddenly blows up

[PenguinPower]

Mmmm

[PenguinPower]

i think ich's trust is also kinda townie

Why?

[PenguinPower]

VC 2.1

Scum players have great interest in breaking mindmelds, as they create game losing situations for scums.

Ich Troje Trusts:

Vulture

Not Trusting:

Almost50, T3, skitter30, PookyTheMagicalBear, PenguinPower, Datisi, Vulture

Deadline in (expired on 2021-07-30 09:40:00).[/color]

You missed this trust

[PenguinPower]

Ah - mulch. Hope all is well.

[PenguinPower]

Ooops

[PenguinPower]

Quite frankly PP shouldn't doubt trusting me after this.

I don’t

[PenguinPower]

I think you or A50 needs to be in the f4, and I'd like skitteR to figure that out, so I'd prefer you didn't get trusted today.

Trust: Vulture

[PenguinPower]

Why what?

[PenguinPower]

Vulture is basically confirmed town?

[PenguinPower]

This is why you get to be in the f4!

[PenguinPower]

<3 pooky

[PenguinPower]

Btw - T3 was scum to me because he tried to pull the same thing that pooky did in his scum win in the last game.

I wasn’t ever going to let that go.

[PenguinPower]

Objectively? Too soon to tell, but it was the first town win.

Subjectively? I had fun.

[PenguinPower]

Mechanically you did well. I would recommend interacting less with your players in the game thread so as to minimize mod interference.
