Mini 2063 - Rapier Upick Shuffle [Game Over]

Reality Check · Post Post #25 (isolation #0) » Tue Mar 12, 2019 10:49 pm

Good morning my friends!

I am here for what I am told is to be the next show of strength among warriors, soldiers, and amateur swordsmen alike. I sincerely hope that our competition is both fair and enlightening. I wish for us all to leave here in a more knowledgeable state of awareness and ability about swordsmanship and the applications of thus in the field of combat and feats of strength.

I am afraid I must note my own embarrassment at this particular state of affairs, as it appears that I had a certain lapse of ability to recognize the participants of this contest, and indeed it seems like I continue to have this lapse even after seeing all you lovely people in the flesh right in front of me. All I can remember is the swords that you all carry, and even so I can only ascribe a single owner and a single owner more among you all for the amount of trouble I must go to revitalize my memories. I apologize in advance if this results in any future situations where I should be firmly aware of the identity of one of my compatriots and yet am unable to do so.

As another claim that must needs be made public, my dear friend of many battles in the past is joining me here today for this contest, and I am honored to welcome my lady Brigitte to the field as my trusted companion on many journeys through the landscape combating against the forces of evil and frizzy hair alike. I hope you all will show her the same respect as you would myself, as we are linked and quite willing to defend that link even if it would mean our life.

Rejoice my friends! There are several players here that I recognize and am confident will make for great comraderie in the field ahead as we give our all in this upcoming test. Indeed, I believe that this comraderie will be our biggest test of all, as swordsplay is relatively simple compared to the heart of man. I humbly request the presence of one participant in particular who, even with their usual ability to hide their motivations from most others I've ever met, have always managed to metaphorically wear their hearts on their sleeves for myself. I wish to expand my list of trusted allies as soon as possible so we can increase our level of comraderie as soon as possible and increase the odds of our learning from each other over the course of this competition as soon as possible. This person knows who they are and I deeply hope a practice parley is well within the realm of possibility before the contest reigns properly!

Rejoice my friends! There is true honor in a competition such as this, and I am proud to call myself a participant in what I believe will be the matches of the century! So please, pick up your sword and make yourself ready, for I will not be going easy in any match I find myself in, for the glory of combat will be my strength, and my conviction to the art of swordsmanship my shield. En garde!

Why's that?

Oh, I'd also like to preface any further posting with this: We have specifically discussed keeping our post count low, particularly because Enter has a remarkably high post count, especially as town, and Taly does not want to clog the game thread with hydra posts. Enter would like to say he wanted to sign up for this game particularly because this is a particularly strong player list and that he would love to post more at this point in time because he is very excited to be playing with a lot of the people here.

Because I can soulread Taly and it would be nice to actually work with him for once instead of being enemies all game

Also, both heads are new to not signing... so 1st and 3rd person may be present in posts.

I think this is Ank, then.

I haven't seen a post about you addressing the post, so I was wondering if you'd give any thoughts around it.

Our hydra not signing is more of a tool for us to read the game better.

assuming they are town, how much content/posting from them do you think it would take for you to get to the point of a strongly confident townread - could you get there on D1?
I have a method of reading Taly that explains the fundamental difference between the town games and scumgames I've seen from him. He asked me about it after merchants daughter ended (since I locktowned him so fast and never wavered on it) and he confirmed that the personality tell was accurate. It's harder to use it now that he knows about it since it's technically actionable, but it's also something that's hard to fake longer term while also looking natural, so I think it will become reliable over a longer period of time anyways.

Enter functions a lot similarly to me, worst case I might just be able to pick out stuff that I might do and look into why exactly he's pulling that out when he is. It's not reliable though, we have zero finished games together.

Because literally nothing's been worth engaging on since then.
My reads haven't changed, I've been letting Ank do her thing because her reads are more important.
Ank let me do my own thing since it'd not interfere with her thing, but my thing is letting her do her thing because there's literally nothing I feel like doing.

You can bet your ass that's not scumastina and I'd feel like doing something, but I don't, because we're town.

If you are not confident in your read of user mbaki, yet you will not "sheep", then how exactly do you plan on eventually dealing with/sorting the mbaki slot? It's one way or another; either you come to a conclusion on him yourself, or defer to others. What shall it be? Do you have a plan?

I understand that they eat Lovebirds in some parts of the world... I myself have eaten roast pidgeon on occasion, but could you please take a bit of time to plan on how you're going to deal with those slots going forward in the game? I think sitting down to collect your thoughts would be helpful.
