Penguin has awesome taste. <3 Keep it up the good work people. I think that one’s my current fave. Why isn’t everyone participating?
We have a maximum of 72 hrs total to play this, so I will be - whatever’s the Koalawang equivalent of prodding -non-participants in approximately 22 hrs or less.-

You couldn’t be more wrong about that as you will very soon see. We are required to play this every day we’re alive and it’s to each player’s advantage that they not only participate in Koalawang but participate actively and enthusiastically.In post 255, Mad Hatters Tea Party wrote:One does wonder, perhaps, due to the multiple stages of the day phase that there may well be mechanical tomfoolery about to happen.
I do have some - if incredibly minor - reads, and I do believe that Koalawang has proven to be a successful distraction from the primary matter. I should also dare wonder if - and I may be wrong here - this activity is providing power to a role. I would have to investigate the thread a little more, however, I must prepare to take some brave and foolish adventurers to a bandits camp that is attempting to take siege to a dwarven hold - and be likely to return upon the noon.
That said, the winner and their prize will be announced shortly.-

As you can clearly see from this leaderboard, this is a very close race between Penguin and Raya. so the runner up gets an adavantage in a future Koalwang round. Basically, a second place finish will get you points, which will increase your chances of winning a future round, so their efforts are not for naught. Should that player be unable to be able to participate (because they are no longer in the game for whatever reason) then the third place finisher shall receive that player’s points etc.In post 222, Smoke and Mirrors wrote:OFFICIAL KOALAWANG LEADERBOARD
Those who are scared of participating are likely scum!

Effort, creativity, good taste and sense of humour, are all important factors necessary in selecting our winner.-

We are not informed about the prize until AFTER Kolawang has ended and it is the real prize. I would think that anyone who played in Animals uPick 1 wouldn’t question that but you probably either forgot my role in that or didn’t follow that game very closely after your NK.In post 303, Superb Subtlety wrote:

Can you explain your srs on Korina, Noraabear and April? Thanks.In post 328, mastina wrote:
I do both. Shorter posts when it's more appropriate, longer posts when it's more appropriate.In post 253, WhemeStar wrote:King thought mastina was known to type in wall posts did they change or do I remember wrong
Also in this game the extended rvs gives me less content to work with--it's not really my thing, it's not really my style, it's something that I can look at as an observer, smile, and appreciate it, enjoying it as a viewer, and get some good townreads from it, but I don't really know what to do with it as a starting point for content.
To give a metaphor for this. When I am at a family gathering that has dance, beit slowdance or more modern dance: I will be there, but I'll be sitting down, watching the dancers. I will smile, appreciate them from my seat, enjoy their dancing as an observer, and generally be around, and enjoying it, but not being a part of it. If I was asked to be a part of the dance, I wouldn't know where to begin, I'd be hesitant, I'd be out of my depths, I'd be uncomfortable, as a participant I'd be miserable, awkward, and not having a good time, in spite of being involved in the activity.
Which is to say the activity is more fun for me to watch than it is for me to participate in. There's plenty of games that work that way, too. I'll watch streamers play games that I myself would never play. (A prominent one: Dead by Daylight. I would never play killer because I don't really like first-person gameplay. I would never play survivor because playing survivor requires precision timing gameplay where you press the right buttons at precisely the right time and the right time is not something you know in advance. Yet in spite of me never wanting to play that game, it is one of my favorite games to watch and I've watched literally hundreds of hours of gameplay on it because I enjoy it as a viewer.)
Same basic principle here. The koala game is fun, and is good for me to watch, and I am getting townreads from the players playing it.
But I just...don't know what to do with it. I can state the townreads I suppose, and I can reiterate that gives the game a small POE for who the scum are likely to be.
...But I already did so and it's a bit hard to explain further beyond that.In post 132, mastina wrote:Smoke and Mirrors (Nancy Drew 39 + Pooky)

Smoke and Mirrors radiate town in a way I've never seen before. They're truly a fire worthy of me, and I am naturally attracted to them as a strong townread here.
Battle Mage did not participate in koalawang, but his handling of the game has looked town. In hindsight, I may have placed him slightly too high, but I still think he's north of null this game.
Superb Subtly is very obviously town this game.
Mad Hatter Tea Party looks pretty damn town but I admit to unfamiliarity there and inability to tell how strongly so.
WhemeStar has looked incredibly town--tho I lack familiarity, the more and more WhemeStar posts the more I see town. In fact it's probably best to say that WhemeStar and Battle Mage's positions should be reversed: Whemestar as locktown with Battle Mage north of null but not in the same locktown tier as WhemeStar and Smoke/Mirrors and Superb Subtlety.
Raya and PenguinPower's participation in Koalawang is the perfect example of townreads generated from the event (PP was too low in the last readslist imo).
Rathe's literally naked voting with nothing more, so no koala play there and fully null.
TFL has been pretty null, fairly lackluster, but is still overall okay in not being south of null imo.
Then we get into the scumreads who're lackluster in a bad way and by no coincidence, none of them participated in koalawang.
So updated readslist:

Interesting. My only experience with scum!FL was when he tried to control the game. I don’t think I’ve ever seen apathetic FL in any game I’ve ever played with him.In post 333, mastina wrote:
As a hint: it'll help you when you realize that neither of them is actually town.In post 286, TheFuzzylogic99 wrote:The apathy of the town is beginning to worry me a bit. Both April and Korina said they are both apathetic toward this game.
While I've nothing but gut for why Korina is scum here, April being scum here as apathetic is actually something I DO have reason for:
While FL is a player who can get apathetic as either alignment, statistically speaking, he is apathetic more often as scum (due to burnout from previous scumgames) more than as town.
It's not a surefire lock-scumtell, but it's better than random in accuracy. I'd say in the 60-75% range. Which is to say, in 25-40% of his games where he is apathetic FL will be apathetic-town but in the majority of them, the 60-75%, he is scum.-

Norabear- Snow Leopard Town Godfather
Korina- Dog Coroner
April -Dragonfly Ninja Visitor
Smoke/Mirror and April could both have scum roles. Korina could be a scum here too and actually be a janitor and fake claiming coroner here but I doubt it. he is prob town. Also I don't see scum claiming Town Godfather. I think that Nora is a solid town based on her role

Masina- only bc her play is so wierd and I dont see scum Mastina playing the way she is
Korina- By role
