Spoiler:

Celica looks very easy to townread

Stay vigilant everyone, that's how those wily ladies get you

The way your wording this post has me confused. What about my posting makes you think I'm very easy to townread?

You're the only alt I haven't figured out yet of course :p

What's your top 3 favorite anime?

I haven't watched a lot of anime recently! Also if I was gonna try to truly keep myself hidden wouldn't I just give you an answer that'd throw you off

Are we planning on strategizing coin amount at all, because I'm going to be very picky with who I accept as a partner thanks to that mechanic

Exactly why we shouldn't claim our coins. I don't think coin count should go into who we partner. I've spectated a few of these and I think a lot of the most telling interactions are pre-dance. I can see some gents/ladies wanting to put a pair together based on coin count. That can easily be said by town or scum, but I feel it takes away a bit of reasoning and scumhunting. So I would rather we just not do it at all

Okay

I'm mainly asking because I'm the 8 coin lady, so whoever my partner is gets some pretty spicy voting power this game

And tbh regardless of what people think, I'd rather just not accept a partner than specifically partner with someone I find scummy

So keep that in mind

. Well um, I understand why you were worried, but I don't think you should've claimed that so fast even if your intent was to claim sometime. I FOS this a bit mostly because being it can set Ankamius with her ideal partner as scum. Even if town wanted to claim the high coin count (and I can understand why.) Doing it this early just doesn't seem correct, along with the timing of the 2 posts. It's meh.

I'm curious what you think my motivation was for claiming my coins

Mostly because I think you wanted to be more appealing to the gentlemen so you get your pick at your partner. I can see the logic in town you having the eight coins and wanting to be careful on who you want as a partner. What I think is the weird part is I see no reason for town you to say that so early because people are obviously going to read you differently now that you've said you have 8 coins. Scum you wouldn't mind that though. So main motivation was to help your partner choice, along with I barely see any reason why you claim that early.

mmmmmmm, that's pretty far away from the actual truth for either alignment

also, you claim that people will see me differently now that they know I have 8 coins, but why is that necessarily worse for town-me than scum-me?

I don't really get your first sentence, are you saying you wouldn't do either situation?
It's worse for town you because the reads are less genuine, and people can make the read of 'I want to put ank with this person because they have 8 coins.' Compared to a read where they can't do that if you just kept it hidden. I don't see why town would want that where scum don't really care.

correct.

you already read past the part where I explained why I wouldn't need to use my coin count to help me find a partner as town; I'm good enough at obvtowning myself when I try to that it's hard to believe that we would ever reach a situation where I would be without a partner when there's more gentlemen than ladies. Buuuuuut a small part of what went into that decision is knowing that it's entirely possible that I'll be specifically put with someone scummy on purpose and it's a lot less likely now.

as scum, I would just grandstand around it if I was worried about how I was going to be read. I don't see much point in just giving out my biggest advantage when I can milk it instead; I also don't have a strong enough scumgame to be able to reliably deflect that extra attention forever, especially since there are multiple people here that are very likely to look for scumsigns from me from early on since I recently won a scumgame against them... and double especially since as the 'strongest' lady in the setup, I'd naturally have more attention on me just from that fact alone. That kind of play requires a strong scumplayer to pull off and that isn't me

as for your response to the second line, that's exactly what is indicative about it; wouldn't you say that it could provide associatives to look back on later?

Why claim right away in your second post? If you did this like, mid pre dance after getting enough interactions I'd fully understand, but doing it so early just changes how people will play around you in total. Wouldn't the associatives be better if you tried to let people read you normally

then

claimed the coins and see how that changed? Your logic as scum is somewhat wifom. Also you seem like a pretty compitent player to me so it's hard to buy that your scumgame is awful.

You're not the strongest lady in the setup, you make somebody else the strongest gentlemen. Important distinction.

True!

Also, I only plan on accepting a gentleman I'm very sure is town so thanks for agreeing with me Dunn

You act like however you say yes to being a dance partner with is gonna instant hammer or swing the vote they have around. When in reality if they don't vote who the town mainly agrees on they're most likely going to get lynched. (Well you would be as well, but not the point here)

Depending on the scumteam, this could be gamewinning for them

How so? You mean scum suiciding to kill a tvt pair? I don't think scum would do that because it's not really worth it. I mean, I guess they could. I don't see why they would though. Still, I don't see why you'd claim early (or how your point proves anything?) If you were really worried about what gent got your coins that seems all the more reason to hide it so you can get a better read on the guys. If scum are in the guys they're gonna want to go for town you yeah? I guess I just don't get your points.

I guess this is more of a playstyle difference than anything

This kind of thing is beneficial to how I get reads longer term, not detrimental; sure scum can try to secure themselves as my dance partner for the votes, but I'm aware enough of that possibility that it's hard to outright push for that without tipping me off

[Ankamius]

Oh and regarding the suiciding being gamewinning:

If there's one other pair that is significantly more competent than the rest of the group, it's plausible for it to be worth it for scum to pair with me just to remove them. Me dying is a bonus since it eliminates the possibility of me sweeping in later when it matters the most and turning the tables on them

[Alisae]

Whenever someone suicided it was a mistake
Don’t suicide

[Pink Ball]
