Gamma can I help you?

Not rn
I’d asked about your fire read so it felt pertinent to acknowledge the explanation

[Gamma Emerald]

Spoiler: Irrelevant

I want to post but the vibe isn't giving the energy that I'd need to reply consistently. >_>

[Gamma Emerald]

He's famously tightlipped as both alignments

I've heard that he's gone entire years without voting

Who are you?

s_s is very frustrating to me because he famously (infamously?) does not vote d1. unless that's changed in my absence.

This remains fairly true

[Gamma Emerald]

VOTE: vulture
Let’s try this

Also, andante seems like towm rn

[VP Baltar]

Idk, vulture could be town.

[Andante]

Also, andante seems like towm rn

hmmm. interesting idea.

[Aristeia]

Idk, vulture could be town.

why?

[Vulture]

People usually don't find me townie early on on this alt... or ever.

Hmph.

[Andante]

I TR you Vulture!!

[Vulture]

Is that 'cause I was talking about it now or did something change? :>

[Aristeia]

she locktown'd you for your fearless setup spec

[Andante]

she locktown'd you for your fearless setup spec

no. I did not. that is a no. that was not great. it was something else! I'm gonna hold of on explaining it though

[Vulture]

Hmm, fair enough.

[Something_Smart]

Leaning town on this

Because of the concept (an RVS vote being retroactively made serious) or the phrasing?

I think I genuinely TRed you once

The phrasing
Feel like it would’ve been more verbose if VP were scum

Quick check in! Have to read through 12 pages...

[hutmeil]

So (speaking anecdotally because I can’t reference back to it anymore) on Epicmafia this setup was played with few numbers, basically. I wanna say it was like 2/3/2. Masons sometimes outed themselves day one. This lessened the pool that people needed to hunt within, and kind of... guided the kills in a way, in that uh... you’re not analyzing the kills for “was this mason hunting or not” so much as like...

Kills were then made and analyzed as “the clear died expected” or, rarely, “why didn’t the clear die here?” Almost always the masons died but sometimes they didn’t and it was a ? moment.

I immediately thought of it when I saw this game and wanted to throw it out there as a way of tackling the game, or alternatively having only one mason out themselves and be the go-between for themselves and the others, etc.

What happened then? Did Town/Mason win when they outed early?

vulture kinda locktown for being willing to take the hurt that will come from proposing that tbh

hard disagree with that statement

exactly my point

I mean, I'm not saying it automatically makes them scum, but like, I'm not TRing someone going "A MASON SHOULD OUT" like, just wait..play the game like normal, and yeah, cause if we SR a maf, lim the maf, then there's no need to out a mason here, that's just a free kill for maf, make maf actually have to work a bit...

Got confused there, are you TRing or SRing Vulture?

I don't wanna wagon implo. You suss there?

I will always wagon implo

Always? Why?

[Datisi]

you're weaker than datisi, yes. Jury is still out on fire.

i am literally the best scum player on this website, how fucking dare you

then i wanted to see how annoyed is he gonna get if i keep ignoring him.

Don't believe this in the slightest.

Also don't buy datisi handing out shit townreads for weak reasons in RVS.

lol? lmao?

i'm sorry, this is just bs. you're basically saying "i don't think datisi would try to annoy me" and "i don't think datisi would be doing the thing he consistently does in rvs" which like, on the former i'm pretty sure you know better, and on the later i am sure you know better

2/10 reaction test

Also what's with the Aris-Datisi "flirting", any history there?

yes

you could say we do that a lot :>

[Datisi]

no comment on how implosion was referencing half of a day in a game, back in October 2021... like, I remember nothing about that game, and he's like "yeah!! scum there!!" uhh my slot was basically doomed when I repped in, like how is that close to relevant here?

i read it, i just don't think it's very AI because some people are just... like that. i am one of them. remembers most games they play, consistently draws comparisons from the game they are playing. i didn't really bother reading his case too closely because i don't know the game he's talking about and i'm kinda short on time currently so not like i can make a good judgement there, but like. i don't think him doing that is scummy.

datisi is feeling really towny. and I almost wonder if he's being too towny right now, like ok, I'm being like andante, and I like never reply to anyone.. but you have no comments on my actual explanation? so like, why did you want that explanation in the first place? hmmmm #AndanteIsOnToSomething

i love going from obvtown to obvscum in the span of a paragraph

i asked for the explanation because i wanted to see your thought process. i read the explanation, i concluded the thought process makes sense and that it's +town for you. that's that. i'm not terribly interested in actually discussing that read because (1) i don't agree with it, (2) it's a read in the very early game and it's gonna be outdated extremely soon.

[Datisi]

I mentioned earlier and still feel that fire's posting just gives me a strong sense of agreeableness that I think can be scum indicative, like there's lots of agreeable description but not the kinds of things that town will do because they're less hyperaware of how they're being perceived than scum are.

i don't think this is exactly scum-indicative for fire, so it's not really a point i considered it my read

How do people generally read S_S? I know he's supposed to be stereotypically easy to read but I don't really remember what people do

he's supposed to be what

this is p weak, thats an easy thing for ari to pick on as maf

I don't think Ari would necessarily say it in thread if scum. Ari could swoon Andante easily. No real reason to call attention to it, and she certainly isn't going to do it to get town points from me.

ehh, i actually agree with this

if andante is town, which i currently think she is, then it's likely at least some scum is gonna be attempting to pocket her early because she has a chronic case of omgus and scum don't like attention. even if scum!ari isn't the person to be doing it, someone on her team likely would be, and calling attention to it is unnecessary.

1) vibe; reads; thread interaction

how much of this read is influenced by meta, and how?
