A warlock, a werewolf, and a vampire... [Game Over]

[Gentleman 7]

Lady 3 would have been my only other consideration for an invitation but luckily she is taken already so that I have no distraction for the belle of the ball, my sweet lady, the lovely, radiant, and sassy lady 6.

[Lady 1]

Scum wants to pair up as soon as possible. Gent 5 or Gent 9 comes into mind.

This depends on how comfortable scum are and we don't really know the answer to that. If you're a confident scum player and think you can pair up by being townie you don't need to pair up asap considering it will bring eyes to you. And that's not even considering the ladies although I do think there's some merit in the ladies to try and wait out pairings, but since this hasn't happened I had nothing to trap people with. A shame

It's best to be quick to pair up because the longer you take, the higher the chance of being left out

Obviously, that goes without saying. But using that to argue that it makes the early gents more wolfy isn't a good idea imo. Because it depends on the player in question and since we have no idea who they are we can't really use that kind of statement.

There's also that if they pair up asap they get the best ladies and won't be primary subjects to scrutinity when left out gent flips town.

[Gentleman 5]

And L4, why G2? He's barely done anything.

Exactly. Other gentlemen have been better.

Quantity is not synonym to alignment. Quality is what matters.

You haven't done anything I'd describe as "quality"

Your posting has barely been related to the game at hand

Main thing I'm wondering about it, does scum Gent 2 feel the need to randomly go after Gent 4? My first impression is it's like just some gut read he had. But I'll need him to explain more of course

It wouldn't be random, remember that one gentleman must be left out at the end of the current phase

I suppose I should post my thoughts more intermittently as I'm catching up rather than simply dumping them all at once. I've set up a few of my own word replacement nicknames, so apologies if a nickname I use isn't the consensus nickname.


Gentleman 4 (Tennis / Soccer)'s intro struck me as fairly awkward and scummy, but later on I felt that his posting improved. Specifically, his introduction talking about his internet and lack of any gut reads felt like a forced attempt to fit in, but later his point in 144 I thought was a fairly decent observation.

Gentleman 1 (Sans)'s read in 131 was a minor one but one that I feel reflected well on him for making the read in the first place. As I said, minor, but the rest of his posts so far give me no reason to doubt a town lean on him.

Other assorted townreads on Lady 7, Lady 3, and Lady 6 (Seal).


Lady 8's 197 struck me as a scumpost like few posts ever tend to do. Along with 168 which I find tonally scummy, she's likely my top suspect for scum so far.

I'm somewhat surprised to see people townreading both Lady 1 and Lady 8, much less call one of them "by a good margin the towniest Lady in the game". I can't say I agree.

Given my read on Lady 8 it pained me slightly to see Gentleman 5's introduction, but I think that he might lean closer to town than scum for me despite his partner and immediate pairing.

I think her posting looks better in places beyond that point. But yes there's room for suspicion, I don't regret my choice though

[Gentleman 7]

Lady 1. Strongly held opinions with flimsy reason to be convinced. Overcompensating for rolling scum or bad at mafia.

The fact I can't tell if Lady 7 is joking or now terrifies me

This post pings me negatively.

Not going to be my dance partner!

A) Wasn't gonna dance with you anyway
B) Super ironic

Bless your heart, my lady.

[Gentleman 2]

So gent 4 and gent 5 are the scum

[Lady 1]

I will be very sad if you are a wolf Gent 7. You do not have my heart but you do have my support

[Gentleman 5]

I think it's productive to discuss which of the gentlemen we want to leave behind at this point. I liked Sherlock 3s entrance and I've been town reading teenisg4. Gorilla boy g7 is my least town gentleman read at the moment.

My take: Gentleman 7 has a good chance of being abrasive town, because the way they're acting isn't conductive to getting a dance partner and perhaps his team would be telling him to do otherwise

[Gentleman 2]

Which ladies would voluntarily reject all gentlemen so we can have a higher number of lynches?

[Lady 1]

I think I want Gent 2 to stay because he believes what he's saying even if I don't agree with it and that's the important part.

[Gentleman 7]

I will be very sad if you are a wolf Gent 7. You do not have my heart but you do have my support

Then please grant me one favor, my lady 1, and let lady 6 know that she may risk an interesting dance with me, of course, but that I will never let her reputation be soiled should she accept my earnest and well-intentioned invitation.

[Gentleman 3]

Funnily enough, I just realized that I don't like any of the pairs we have so far.

[Gentleman 9]

I like a Lady 5/Gent 8 pair more and more if they are both amenable to that

it's entirely up to gent 8 in the end though

I was thinking the same thing

[Gentleman 2]

Gents 6 and 8 still must be paired up, so it leaves Gents 2, 3, 4 and 7. We need three brave ladies.

[Gentleman 2]

Gent 5 and Gent 9 being scum might really complicate things up.

[Lady 7]

It's you who didn't talk about my argument all you really did was say how you're not setting yourself up for lategame and at that point I can see/let go. But that wasn't the crux of my argument that you haven't proven false. I also openly said one of the main things I need to see depends on later in the game so you saying 'it doesn't make sense' isn't even close to the case.

Having options and setting up lynches is 2 entirely different things as well.

I don't think setting up options is even the play, you have to play stuff like this one at a time.
But I guess I can't prove to you what I think good scum play is.

Funnily enough, I just realized that I don't like any of the pairs we have so far.

Do you mind if I ask which side of each pair is the unlikable bit? Or is it something inherent to the union itself?

[Gentleman 9]

Why not g3

[Lady 1]

Lady 6 don't break my friend Gent 7s heart. You should dance with him

[Gentleman 2]

Gent 4, gent 5 and gent 9. At least one of them should be a hit unless we have three furies ladies.

[Lady 1]

Lady 6 don't break my friend Gent 7s heart. You should dance with him

I unironically support this btw

[Lady 7]

I don't get why G7.Gorilla is being town read.
Can someone explain that to me?

[Gentleman 7]

Gentleman 8, my prince, as your humble servant I must ask that you make your choice from the remaining ladies. It would be unseemly for you to leave us before the dance or worse, be paired with the riff raff.

[Gentleman 8]

I'm gonna start playing from this point on and not read back btw

out of interest, how did you figure lady 6 was the towniest of town players that ever towned if you didn't read back?
