Subject: Missing Neuromods
We have four neuromods in the test labs. We received four, signed for four, and there are four in our secured storage. If you're saying you shipped seven, I advise you to take it up with security and your delivery personnel. This isn't the first time neuromods have gone missing somewhere between fabrication and testing.

OK.. I'll take that shot. skitter is far more "convincing" when she's town (also far more paranoid, but I can live with that), so if it's between me and her I think I'd rather be the one to eat the bullet tonight. (after all, we have semi-similar reads and I'm

certain

she will consult my reads, thus not touching implosion )

IMPORTANT: For those of you who have bad memories or are just skimming, I said my abilities yield NO RESULTS, so I don't have a result on ANYONE. I am just figuring out motives and/or setup mechanics, as I always do.

[Varsoon]

So, wait, what's going on?

@a50:
i will consult your reads and am willing to consider the notion of town!implosion but i can't promsie i'll never go after him if i still think he's scum in a dayphase or two

Remember the game with RC? Remember how implosion (and PP) were SRing me right off the bat? That's exactly what happens all the time, so it makes perfect sense for implosion to use that Cop shot on me from my PoV. Scum!him would have NOT cleared me. He could have claimed to have targeted just about anyone else (like Varsoon, who has already claimed a Commuter TODAY, but he didn't before, so implosion would have been justified to target him and have wasted the investigation shot).

Motives, my friend. Motives, alternative options, playstyle (meta), and MECHANICS are my tools to scum hunt, and my analysis says implosion is as Town as you and BEF are.

more specifically my role pm says I may invite a player to a session of Neuromod Enhanced Yoga. I figured that was just the flavor for the neighborizing.

Neuromods are basically a way to inject Typhon bits to edit your brain or some wild shit so you can get a person's skillset or even powers.
So like if you had the neuromod for being a genius at chess and injected it, your brain would then reformat to mimic (like the typhon) a chess master.
Extracting neuromods really fucks with your memory and personality of the time when they were injected so

Anyway I figured your role had to do with neuromods because that's the first way I could think to render the flavor of a human being a motivator for another player in the flavor that'd fit.
Just like how my commute and one of the flipped ones are flavored as escape pods because the game takes place on the spaceship.

Could it be that my ability only works on humans then?

I plan on catching up this weekend (tomorrow night ideally) for real. I see I had some votes. Very understandable and deserving. I've been useless.

However, I'm not going to abandon the game; I'm going to start participating again. Any direct concerns for me at the moment other than my activity?

Otherwise, reads are scarce since I haven't been reading the thread very much. The read I'm pretty solid on is that skitter is town, but that's about it.

[mcqueen]

Here are some questions I have about the gamestate (helps me engage and understand everyone's perspective + reading will go faster):

1. Why is BEF town/scum? I have a few answers already, but I'd like specifically those on his wagon (Elbirn, Persivul) right now to answer the question once again and/or quote their reasoning.
2. A50, why was your vote on me?
3. Chara, who is your top scumread? And who are your top two townreads?
4. BEF, who do you think is scum?

[Almost50]

A50, why was your vote on me?

Because I think you're scum!

[Varsoon]

@BEF: Unless the mod specified so, I doubt it.

[Varsoon]

VOTE: Mcqueen
Trusting A50's result on this.

I am currently voting Persy though

[Elbirn]

I came around to an implosion scumread a while ago, really felt some shit chara(?) Was saying, never commented on it

And now I cant even say anything because now EVERYONES floating him as a scumread and hes scumreading me so I'll look opportunistic and scummy

That's fine I'll keep deathtunneling bef.

[Elbirn]

Idk what the hubbub about a cop result on a50 was even though I just read it but hes town anyway

[Chara]

3. Chara, who is your top scumread? And who are your top two townreads?

i posted a read list, what prompted you to ask me this specifically over anyone else?

[Chara]

I came around to an implosion scumread a while ago, really felt some shit chara(?) Was saying, never commented on it

i'm interested in finding out what you agreed with about implosion scum.

[Varsoon]

VOTE: Persivul
Oh, lol, thought you were voting Mcqueen with prejudice.

[Varsoon]

UNVOTE:
Wait shit didn't Percivul claim something that made them conf-town?

Percy is a sort of cop but only on a specific flavor, or so the speculation goes.

A weak investigative sounds about right for this setup I suppose soo

ehhhhhhhhhhh
i see where you're coming from
i have trouble absolving myself of my reads and just being ok sheeping people tho
how about this - i'll listen to this for the next couple of dayphases but if i'm in 5 or 3way lylo with him i re-evaluate

we're massclaiming and you get to go first

what did he claim that makes him conf-town?

[skitter30]

if people are townreading elbirn can you explain why please?

i've realized that my main reason for townreading him is from one specific post he made (that i'll say a bit later if people want me to) and i'm not sure it's worth a townread like two dayphases later
