I got the exact minigames I wanted from the starting point of shiki locking Wall. I didn't have nearly the degree of strategy or domineering that I do in most games, but I still played pretty hard and had several things in mind.
The idea was essentially that I could probably survive an early scumlean from cat in the Keep and maybe flip it by Day 4 or 5, and a combination of ffery's irl issues dying down and me having more time to interference would improve our chances at Gate. I didn't think me/cat was a good matchup in the Keep, where he can just ignore reading me entirely and rely on PoE, so I selected skitter to mitigate that possibility. I didn't think Tempest/fferyllt was actually a bad matchup at all in either of Gate/Wall, but that's a source of disagreement.
This failed for a few reasons, but #1 was definitely not properly setting up or utilizing fferyllt. I set her up such that she was going to fail no matter what game she got put in, and cat's most accurate point on my slot was in the partner read.-

(I wasn't persuaded by him missing the parallel between our public positions, but YMMV. He had another point that Faker-town never gets left in Keep, which is probably true and it's why I made an argument that an absinthe-skitter swap would be an attempt to even out and gain some win % across both games, as opposed to putting all of the eggs into Gate.)-

That makes sense, I appreciate the strategic insight! I suppose it was easier to say with hindsight that the minigames would be uphill battles. At the time of choosing the groupings, it probably wasn't as clear as I thought it might have been. And it did do the job of making you look unpaired, in my eyes at least!-

Well played btw Coral You’re a really good Townie. Much as you misread me I have never been quite so effectively shut down. Town deserved this win and ffery and Prism and Isis did all they could.ScumBlade's eloquent performance left me utterly disoriented, debased, depraved and sent me spiraling into a horrific murky abyss with emotional turmoil and immense despair as my only companions until slowly I suffocate in my own gloom, surrounded by failure. I will never recover. -- Zachstralkita about Mini 1841

-It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!
