Toriel's Patience (end)

[Taly]

something i dont see from a lot of yall

[Dannflor]

curious as to why you think so

i get much better reads when i approach the thread like a spectator or someone who is not attached to his relationships with other people in the game

I have not been getting much that i feel great about from the thread lately so im trying to take a step back and also give room for the people who haven't really started playing the game yet

[Taly]

hmmmm, i think i like 476

[Dannflor]

dunn

is giving nuanced and specific thought

most of his ISO

no jumps to conclusions, just a consistent and coherent progression of thought that isnt overexplaining or going into pointless divets of conversation.

Then, did you misunderstand what my point was or do you still think it's an "unsubstantial" read?

Misunderstood your point, I think engaging in theoretical discussion that doesn't amount to much and revolves around general ideas on the game rather than things specific to what's currently going on is scummy, both for myself and for others, so it's fair

only thing ive read from

meuh

and its a +1

Read my posts they’re all great!

[Taly]

pocketed, game over, start the sparing

[Taly]

meuh

am i misled on

mandate/key

being towny?

[implosion]

221 is a pretty good point (on Keyleth being town) and probably +town a bit for Sakura. To elaborate a bit since it came into question why I think it's +town for Keyleth, the post is just very frank about what it's trying to do. I think scum on average will tend to shy away from a post that's like "hey, we already have me + x as town, who are the other two" particularly in the context of Keyleth having some heat on her. It's not a slam dunk or anything, but I think it's very easy to glance at that post and briefly *think* it's a slam dunk before you've thought it through intensely, hence Sakura is slightly townish for it (but only slightly and this paragraph is already way too long)

225 gave me a very strong gut ping about who Mandate is an alt of but i'd mostly just be amused if i was right because i am hot trash at trying to guess alts

265 is a funny post because yes, those odds are indeed terrible (EV of limming scum today + tomorrow is just above 3%... only ever so slightly lower than the a priori odds of Mandate's teamread being right)

323 by Dunn is a really interesting one. I read that post by Meuh and like, I agreed with it but the only thing it made me feel was "Meuh is skilled or experienced at the game of mafia". It didn't make me feel anything about Meuh's alignment. So I'm curious what Dunn means by calling it "strong posting", if he means what I just said or that Meuh is townish for it.

332 Hooray mandate is going through a redemption arc

Might want to revisit page 14 regarding Aristeia later but checkpointing again

[implosion]

So far I feel best about Dann and Brown Eyes and Mandate, then Keyleth, then Sakura

[implosion]

gonna take a break before reading the last 6 pages though

[Dannflor]

kinda town read taly's absolute refusal to give me what i want regarding her dunstral read

[Taly]

fuck hes afraid of pandas, nice going

taly

[implosion]

more of a i should probably eat something today kind of deal

[Taly]

kinda town read taly's absolute refusal to give me what i want regarding her dunstral read

its not a refusal, its just me giving my most honest answer to it, i can dig quotes but it isnt really going to change what i have to say or dress it with better worded rationale

that's kind of what i mean tbh

you didn't bother fabricating a more specific read and that would've been an easy way to engage me

[Taly]

how od you feel about

implosion's

read through so far?

im mostly skimming it tbh

[Mandate]

Would be inclined to call it more likely town than scum

[Taly]

thought so too but im wondering if im going to end up with too many "you look town" hmmmm.

which isnt a thought specific to

implosion

[Taly]

also

townhunt-town!Taly and scumhunt-town!Taly are two different Taly's

no literally, i can clone myself, toucans do that IN NATURE

[Mandate]

I have a lot of people who look town, I am comfortable thinking there are a lot of lurker scum

[Taly]

who qualifies as a lurker in a game thats gone on for maybe 3 days or less?
