Open 791 | Forest Fire | Game Over

[Farren]

Those positions make sense for Dunnstral and Pine.

I do not understand your townread on Gamma Emerald. I liked 70 and 77. You initially mentioned your read of Gamma in 99; I can see a townread at that point. Has anything since then influenced it?

[Isis]

hi i have not been very active lately and i am sorry for that!

uh, to explain why i might feel/be acting different: it's more of a comfort thing than anything else? i feel at ease with the playerlist + the game as a whole right now so i'm more prone to like... be sort of chit-chatty and easygoing. it's probably not the best for like, finding scum but i'm also prioritizing my own enjoyment lmao. that and not having as much time as i would like to really go through this.

I need to work on my notoriety

[Isis]

It might be lazy but I want to town bucket the bat

[Isis]

as either alignment, it's these kinds of post I expect from Ydrasse, a bunch of references to things going on, several paragraphs with lots of different thoughts and points, and kind of a straightforward approach to arguing. The difference I'm feeling here is that I haven't seen these types of posts from Ydrasse yet really, she's posting more casually and friendly.

It might be her just feeling more comfortable on the site and letting more of her personality out, maybe emulating some other players she's seen/read (I kinda feel like she's channeling more of a skitter vibe in this game), but do you have a sense of the difference I'm trying to point to? I know I just lazily grabbed one post from each game but if you do an ISO dive you can see it, there's just a lot more to-the-point content, here it feels like she's more chatty and peppering her posts with exclamation points and faces

Yes, I can see a tonal difference between the posts you cited and here|Ydrasse.

Her explanation in 516 felt honest to me; it resonates with how I feel when I'm in a familiar playlist and/or an unusually good mood.

how good does your mood have to get for me to get memes

[Isis]

GuiltyLion's point on Ydrasse might not be good, but I believe he believes he's good, and his stock goes up.
VOTE: Dunn
It's a little scummy for him to complain about just scumbinning all the lurkers although he'd maybe do that as town too. Dunn is kind of a lower quality d1 selection than an average one but lots of people seem townish.
I think he's slightly more likely to post a little less as scum, I don't know if he believes that about himself.

[Isis]

I just said Pepsi is ok irl please policy me

[Dunnstral]

Why is that scummy?

[Isis]

town!dunnstral could just stop lurking, scum!dunnstral risks exposing his alignment if he posts more. Pretty basic.

I like your new avi

[Dunnstral]

weak case

[Isis]

I agree I doesn't has much this game

[tea leaves]

Farren asks a weird question over here because he's asking about this townread saying he doesn't understand it despite saying he liked and agreed with mentions of it precious.

GuiltyLion posts recently looked better to me so now I'll go for Dunnstral or Farren. To make things interesting I'll vote Farren.
VOTE: Farren

[Farren]

Drugged.

[Farren]

Farren asks a weird question over here because he's asking about this townread saying he doesn't understand it despite saying he liked and agreed with mentions of it precious.

I think that having a townread on Gamma at that point in the game made sense. Not having re-evaluated that town read between then and now is what I don't understand.

[Isis]

i re-evaluated and gamma seems very towny

[Farren]

town!dunnstral could just stop lurking, scum!dunnstral risks exposing his alignment if he posts more. Pretty basic.

weak case

Weak as in kinda indicative but not really, or weak as in fundamentally bad?

[Farren]

i re-evaluated and gamma seems very towny

*puts Isis in the line behind GuiltyLion*

[Isis]

Gamma seemed to be playing in the perfect way to get himself killed and so i like want to go opposite and not kill him

er people don't die in this setup but yknow what i mean

[Farren]

Which is closer: "too scummy to be scum;" "doesn't care if he lives or dies?" Or are both wrong?

[Isis]

the former; inverse survivalism tell

[Farren]

Former means first; inverse survivalism means last. Is it both?

[Isis]

I meant the latter

idk how I messed that up

[Morning Tweet]

Haha that reminds me of one of my previous games with him. Even i was able to create a good enough scumcase for him to be elimed (he was town i was not)

The way I remember him, he starts with some early fluff, he chimes in on a few things, he doesn't have time to make big posts so he makes small ones, he gets mistaken for scum by some at first, but gets eliminated a bit further down the line

But I mean his scum game could also be the same i dont think I've seen him as scum-- id have to check. This game in particular, though..

Spoiler:

I guess the Lion and Dunnstral are my picks for the arsonist right now because Gamma's last few posts were ok.
VOTE: GuiltyLion

Do you mind answering my question about your Farren read?

Ok MT. I like the opinion on Dunnstral and I agree with a lot of them.
I think I already did in my read list Gamma or did you want more?

I would like more, yes

Question for both Gamma Emerald and Dunnstral: neither of you have voted at all yet. Why not? We're over halfway through D1.

I am between 2 options rn, waiting to decide until I get something to push me one way or the other

I kinda like this stretch of posts

Tbh going through there's nothing i dislike, maybe a few gut town pings based on tone

[Morning Tweet]

It might be lazy but I want to town bucket the bat

This is unprecedented, isis -- are you sure?!

You've never let me go inside the town bucket before.. i was always stuck in the time-out corner

[Isis]

that's not true I townread you in purgatory cause you were a demon

[Morning Tweet]

Dunny what do you think of my posts to you tho? I get Isis saying lurking is scummy isn't impressing you, but what! about!! my stuff!!!!

Spoiler: for Dunn

What makes you suppose he's right on all his townreads?

I think Morning is town.
I think Clidd is town.
I think ydrasse is probably town.
I think GL is probably town, but actually maybe a little weaker than the other three.

Gamma, pine, dunn all null.

This seems opportunistic if farren is town.

Why does it seem opportunistic, dunn?

You put all the low posters in your null pile, which is actually just your scum pile but you're not calling it that

This combined with GL's scum in the actives comment made me wonder if there's an arsonist who felt the need to push back against Mena's early townlist. Dunn directly goes into a contrarian mode against Mena, whereas Guilty more subtlely implied there's scum in the active players (Mena was townreading almost all the activeish players).

I am curious as to why the only thing in the thread Dunn opted to comment at the time on was this. What made it the main thing that caught his eye, i mean. I'd like to talk about it more but I'm actually kind of missing what his point is too. What does putting the low posters in null and Farren in scum have to do with being opportunistic?

me sitting here with 5 posts while clidd has 102 and is pushing me but he's getting pushed instead: kermit

I feel like Morning Tweet should be calling me out for my lack of presence in this game or something

This feels like WIFOM!! But you're right

Dunn, although you may be correct that I should be one to notice you're gone -- what was the point of pointing it out in 411? Does it make you think im scummy? I struggle to find what the intention behind pointing it out was

Unless you're scum in which case it makes you look good in an indirect way. It's like a way to compensate for being inactive-- you point it out yourself before I or someone else does and it makes you look good for calling attention to something potentially scummy about yourself unprompted

we could talk about one of the bolded questions if you want..
