[JacksonVirgo]

Jackson what are your thoughts on the game so far

Pending

eat a spoonful of mustard

Can we get in a discord call when you do this?

Also who do you scumread?

[hellbooks]

if you need black's thinking cap you can go to the big willow tree and dig it up; alternatively if you need tris's brain unscrambler im sure she would be happy to lend one to you if you ask her in the pt that you share

i think that would be a slight flaunting of the ongoing game rules given that this is kind of like a task that i specifically tied to this game
i was imagining that i'd upload a youtube video of me doing it. uploading youtube videos has been something people have done in the past and surprisingly i don't remember it being a "rules problem" DESPITE the fact that a youtube video is actually editable text and APPARENTLY youre not supposed to link to editable text in a game such as a google doc which i got in SLIGHT TROUBLE for dooing one time
but i think ill get aroudn this by like posting the raw text of the youtube title and description and things like that and im sure the mod will be fine with it

right? mod you'll be fine with it?

as for who i scum read. good question. here are some various ideas in rapidly decreasing order

roden -> scum with the understanding that there is obvious potential to reverse this read with more posting.... not to pressure you but...
jupter -> unsure, thought was scum at times but got swayed by personality discourse and general liking of posts but still kind of supicious that jupiter is weaponizing transparency in the way that i do extremely shamelessly as scum. Source: other game
dannflor -> so i have been timidly and secretly thinking of him as the guy i would like to lim on d2 if it truly becomes assassin time . but i think common sense dictates that the whole "plausible deepwolfs who would also be a good assassin" is kind of like a really riskly and unpalatable angle. i think its gonna be hard to get ppl to agree to that type of thinking is what i mean. like i think everyone would be like "you are so stupid. we are gonna vote for the scummiest guy on D2 just like normal because we want to hit scum. and the assassin thing is just gonna be an edge case". none the less that is how i have been thinking of him
tris and fire is red sir -> we've gone through a whole lot together them and i. ive only ever seen them as town. they seem to be doing a good job of seeming the way that ive seen them. however, i dont see myself seriously townreading them until a day phase or more has passed. perhaps by that point i will be Dead. they probably feel the same way about me too. doubly so because they actually have seen me be scum so they know that i am capable of fostering evil in my heart. for fire it may even take decades. 5 of them to be exact. and maybe 4 years on top of that.

now for crucial Documentation Purposes, this was not a Reads List.

[hellbooks]

ok fine, heres a Reads list
readslist 2 of 6

[usesPython, JupiterXV, fireisredsir, JacksonVirgo, Roden, Black, tris, Dannflor]

note that the town-to-scum range of this bracket is higher than it was in the first readslist.

[hellbooks]

this is extremely conf biasy of me but the timing of tris moving off of hellbooks right after roden and I brought her wagon up to 3 votes plus the idea I have that scum would want to distance/interact early in this setup but be wary of hard bussing makes me think tris/hellbooks have some genuine scum equity together

i guess i'll just toss in this fact which is that i believe tris was the person who brought my wagon up to 3 votes originally
uh oh... chainsaw alert...

[Dannflor]

hmmmmmm

you are correct

[Dannflor]

Why did you say that then?

it was a fun observation that was surprising to me

[hellbooks]

oh jupiter has 128 posts

[hellbooks]

you are correct

"townreading the people who tell us that we're correct" new endemic problem just dropped

[hellbooks]

Probably gonna be in absentia tmrw which likely means you get to read some typo ridden posts from my phone

proceeds to have my most postacious day

[Dannflor]

well those were my real time thoughts as they happened. whats the self awareness part?

well, when i am scum, i often feel the need to sign post my thoughts and read shifts more than i do as town

i often find as town that i have some thoughts and reach a conclusion and take a hasty action that matches that whole process before ever revealing it in thread, then I have to go back and explain after the fact

as scum, i believe i have a tendency to try and show more of my thoughts as i go. so i don't disbelieve that you had all these thoughts, regardless of your alignment, but it feels almost too deliberate the way in which you explained each thought relating to your vote on hellbooks

i think 441 stuck out to me the most because you're lampshading the fact that you are moving from a vote that was doing something to a vote that doesn't really apply any pressure

which means to me that you are very aware of what you're vote is doing and how you're perceived and while that's not always a scum trait I think that type of... self-consciousness? is more likely to come from scum

[Dannflor]

ok fine the trisbooks ship has sunk


i think 503 is towny but maybe it's just because she flattered me by saying she wants me to be the assassin

[DragonEater70]

but i think ill get aroudn this by like posting the raw text of the youtube title and description and things like that and im sure the mod will be fine with it

right? mod you'll be fine with it?

I think I can allow you to post a YouTube video, yes. But yeah you should probably post the raw text.

[hellbooks]

sure would be a shame if i got nightkilled before i could post the mustard video wouldnt it..... sure would be a big blow to town morale i bet....

[Black]

I feel good about hellbooks for now. 503 feels townie even from a non-flattered perspective

[Black]

Dann why do you townread Jupiter

[JacksonVirgo]

Holy fucking shit, I had my catchup post mostly written up and I almost deleted the whole fuckin' thing

[JacksonVirgo]

I am filled with so much adrenaline, which is weird for a goofy online game

[JacksonVirgo]

I actually deleted it, fuck my life. I'll rewrite it all I guess

[usesPython]

you are correct

"townreading the people who tell us that we're correct" new endemic problem just dropped

Easy, just never be correct

[usesPython]

Patiently waiting for the JV files to be leaked

[JacksonVirgo]

I'm gonna vent a moment cuz I kinda hate that I did this but I was trying out this new way of catching up, like segmenting the points I'm making for each person in their own section to try and cover my common pitfalls when reading people which is hyperfocusing on like half the game, leaving the rest just at the back of my mind and I was super excited to post it, lmfao but we deal.

I'll rewrite it up but overall I think that jupiter/dann look pretty bad here

[JacksonVirgo]

I don't hate that I did this way, I hate that I deleted my progress

[Black]

Dann why do you townread Jupiter

Also why do you townread me? You were wrong about me in a couple of games that just ended. I would expect you to be a little more wary here
