Micro 1003: Divide and Conquer - Game Over!

[Menalque]

Wait

Are we not meant to be in groups

[Menalque]

Or did I just fuckin ninja cakez before he could post them

Bc he forgot to lock thread in between posts lol

[Menalque]

Nvm I should check my messages

So

Me, pooky, norwee, ydra, no face, vanders

Means skitt, infinity, bingle are the other

[Menalque]

That’s such a spicy group of 3

I was thinking it was optimal to do the group of 5 first but then I just realised that it’s a group of 6

Although if we wanna treat me as an IC and do the group of 5 first then if we hit scum it’s just a mech win

[Menalque]

I wonder if scum big brained it or not

[Menalque]

Although I was assuming a disparity in the level of the scums and if that’s not the case my reasoning maybe doesn’t hold up so well

[Menalque]

i believe

[Menalque]

Okay, so me and ydra are town so there’s scum in (pooky, norwee, no face, vanders)

Probably not vanders

Probably not norwee?

P sure our scum is pooky or no face

[Menalque]

Pooky could be aligned with skitter I guess

[Menalque]

Or bingle

Infinity prob!town unless she’s big brained it and is feeling brave

[Menalque]

VOTE: no face

[Menalque]

Seems solid

We can have a toxic 1v1 tomorrow if I’m wrong

[Menalque]

Pooky tell me that I’m wrong that it u were scum and skitter was town that you wouldn’t have a neighbourhood with her

[Menalque]

i refuse to kill a fellow neighbor today

But


Auto win?

[Menalque]

Exactly

[Menalque]

And I wouldn’t have neighbouriser you if I were scum

[Menalque]

i have made my stance clear and i will protest!!!

Guilty conscience bc u know that no face isn’t the scum in our group hmmmmmmm

[Menalque]

And I wouldn’t have neighbouriser you if I were scum

wait why

Not bc of that! Bc I wouldn’t want to have to try and misyeet town you

I’d put like

You skitter bingle together probs, assuming that I’m right and infinity is town

[Menalque]

Or at least if I do neighbourise u it’s the group of 3 with me in it too

[Menalque]

Norwee i feel like u wouldn’t neighbourise me if u were scum

[Menalque]

We should vote for the one who is acting like mafia

Uh oh ydrasse, looks like no face is repaying ur kindness by gunning for you

[Menalque]

that sounds like a v cute outfit

[Menalque]

u should dress ur cat up to match

[Menalque]

VOTE: skitter this is the level 0 thing, I feel like I always get out-wined in these scenarios but yeah

Y not bingle

[Menalque]

Imagine if the game i finally rolled scum with skitter we had to be in different neighbourhoods lol

[Menalque]

i think all of my cats would kill me before they would let me dress them up

except for .... the beast

dress them as the kings and queens of court while u play jester

[Menalque]

hmmmm

only in the 6p hood or with u in the 3p

But I’m not feeling tryhardy so prob I would put all the strongest players in 3p with my buddy to make excuses for NKs

[Menalque]

(I don’t mean to offend anyone btw)

[Menalque]

Yah I think the problem with putting myself in with skitt would be the paranoia, esp in the 3p

[Menalque]

Ydrasse why r u so much townier in the neighbourhood

[Menalque]

skitter is a nice person

did anyone suggest otherwise?

[Menalque]

yea she will kill you by feeding you razor blades slowly :3

skitter is a nice person

did anyone suggest otherwise?

There are two kinds of people...

[Menalque]

VOTE: skitter this is the level 0 thing, I feel like I always get out-wined in these scenarios but yeah

Y not bingle

Cause skitt is good at scum and scum expect us to hunt in the 3p hood first

But bingle is also good at scum ?

[Menalque]

No face, won’t ask beyond this, but are you an alt?

[Menalque]

Yes

[Menalque]

I mean I wanna go 6p but infinity openwolfing is making it hard

[Menalque]

Err

Underage gun control?

[Menalque]

I think I TR you in Jk9++ too? Maybe?

[Menalque]

Still TR u tho

U can’t take that away from me

And was correct too

[Menalque]

we may have a 50+ page d1

oh my sweet summer child

[Menalque]

Mena, you have significant partner equity with Infinity. Thoughts?

Uh, why

[Menalque]

Who cares, math is boring

[Menalque]

6p first is obviously correct I don’t care what the math says

[Menalque]

Infinity u said something earlier that made very little sense

[Menalque]

You can still sheep skitt's read on me this game, we can't be partners

This was kind of a bizarre thing to say given that you were advocating scum!skitt within your hood at the time

[Menalque]

Yah I think the problem with putting myself in with skitt would be the paranoia, esp in the 3p

ngl i was kinda thinking you were being +town for you until you said this
but this *does* make me paranoid ^

btw skitt i don’t understand why this makes u paranoid

[Menalque]

Oi bingle explain why I have equity with infinity

[Menalque]

Mine?

[Menalque]

I'd think that it would be too hard for scum!her to justify

Uh

Why

[Menalque]

Oh hey, snap bingle boi

[Menalque]

Y’know bingle, i sometimes genuinely forget that you and jingle are the same person

[Menalque]

Oi bingle explain why I have equity with infinity

Of all the players on the list, you're the only one that comes to mind as probably not wanting to be in a hood with me and skitts. Additionally, I could easily see you as being the type to commit to winning through a single pool and shooting inside of the small pool despite it being mathematically suboptimal to do so.

Yeh, okay, that makes sense

Idk if I’d rather be in a pool with pooky > one of you but I get the general sentiment you’re going with

[Menalque]

I'd think that it would be too hard for scum!her to justify

Uh

Why

She's correctly read me 3 games in a row and I feel like she has a pretty good sense for how I play

Right but

If she’s in the 3p pool then she’s prob not expecting to survive long term

[Menalque]

I wonder what infinity!scum implies about the 6p hood

[Menalque]

Yah I think the problem with putting myself in with skitt would be the paranoia, esp in the 3p

ngl i was kinda thinking you were being +town for you until you said this
but this *does* make me paranoid ^

btw skitt i don’t understand why this makes u paranoid

[Menalque]

think that vander is town

Explain this take too pls

[Menalque]

Ydrasse is probably the person best able to pocket me on site atm so her being in a hood with me is lowkey suspicious but I’m also not sure she’d do me so dirty in post 11 if that were the case

[Menalque]

I said she was town in the normal so I get to read her however I want here

[Menalque]

Skitt also knows that I struggle under pressure as town generally, so the plan is to elim me d1 and then NK jingle

y would she nightkill jingle there

[Menalque]

My reads were so good that game

[Menalque]

At all the points where it mattered

[Menalque]

Yah I think the problem with putting myself in with skitt would be the paranoia, esp in the 3p

ngl i was kinda thinking you were being +town for you until you said this
but this *does* make me paranoid ^

btw skitt i don’t understand why this makes u paranoid

first i thought that scum-you *would* put yourself with me, so the fact that we aren't together was a big reassuring, but then you said this which makes me think the opposite because scum-you would expect me to be paranoid of you, and i'm not in the same hood as you
but it's starting to become circular in my head a bit

I guess it is slightly +scum for me bc yeh I prob wouldn’t wanna be in the same hood as you (I’d isolate strong players and bus the fuck out of my buddy D1 prob) if I were scum

I think it’s just not that meaningful bc I think a decent number of people here would, if they were scum, not want us in the same hood if we’re both town

[Menalque]

What I don’t get is how that’s important for whether I was being towny here in thread? @skitter

[Menalque]

I think vanders is very null

[Menalque]

I think it’s just not that meaningful bc I think a decent number of people here would, if they were scum, not want us in the same hood if we’re both town

I think I'm the only person in this PL who would want to be in a 3P hood with you and skitter and enjoy it.

I find this very believable, depending on who no face is

[Menalque]

Probably but not clear yet

[Menalque]

I’d lowkey expect hectic to play this on his main

[Menalque]

I’ll consider infinity on the understanding that if skitt+bingle become conf then we dead sheep them until lylo

[Menalque]

I think vanders is very null

What'd you think of my vanders town logic?

Where? I don’t see it in ur iso

[Menalque]

I guess it is slightly +scum for me bc yeh I prob wouldn’t wanna be in the same hood as you (I’d isolate strong players and bus the fuck out of my buddy D1 prob) if I were scum

I think it’s just not that meaningful bc I think a decent number of people here would, if they were scum, not want us in the same hood if we’re both town

i mean fair but that's what i thought when i saw that post
like i didn't say it makes you scum or that this configuration is impossible from town-you

i did have paranoid thoughts there tho

I mean honestly skitt if I role scum this game I probably just cry and then provided my partner is halfway competent I put myself in the 3p and try to enjoy being able to open wolf all game

I’m only scum here ever with infinity, and even then only if infinty’s

really

doubtful of her ability to bring home a win

[Menalque]

What I don’t get is how that’s important for whether I was being towny here in thread? @skitter

i don't think i said it was?

It felt implied?

[Menalque]

Yah I think the problem with putting myself in with skitt would be the paranoia, esp in the 3p

ngl i was kinda thinking you were being +town for you until you said this
but this *does* make me paranoid ^

“i was kinda thinking you were being +town” is presumably based on my posting in thread

Idg why paranoia about setup stuff is related to me not being +town based on what I’d posted here

Like

It makes more sense to say that you’re getting paranoid AS WELL almost?

[Menalque]

I think stronger scum/person who likes scum more is in 6p

[Menalque]

That’s why you make so much sense as scum ydra

[Menalque]

do what

[Menalque]

I actually think vanders has a lot of equity

[Menalque]

i don’t hate anyone except nazis and we have no nazis here

[Menalque]

he feels different to me than he did previously as scum

Vanders?

[Menalque]

what game are you talking about ydrasse, i had no idea you’d ever played against vanders!scum

[Menalque]

Happy cakeday infinity!

[Menalque]

I think vanders is playing similarly to UGC

[Menalque]

Oh lol, I just realised what that abbreviation looks like

[Menalque]

I thought we were focusing on limming in the 3p group

y would u think this tho

[Menalque]

>me realising that the main two people I scumread are the only ones arguing for 3p being better,

[Menalque]

VOTE: vanders

[Menalque]

I think vanders is playing similarly to UGC

I am!

Have you read any of my town games?

That’s gonna be a no chief

[Menalque]

Bingle could easily be scum

[Menalque]

I think stronger scum/person who likes scum more is in 6p

That wouldn't be vanders unless he's scum with me, right?

ding ding ding

[Menalque]

I mean it might be in a vacuum but given both of ur posting so far

[Menalque]

Also I feel like that’s a v reasonable assumption to make given that u v recently lost a scumgame and vanders just won one

[Menalque]

Idk if I’m TRing norwee for q good reason

Probably not actually

[Menalque]

My conclusion about your character is based on the game of C9++ we had 2 years ago.

Hooooo damn boy, that game

Gooooood times

[Menalque]

Can one of infinity and norwee change their avi bc honestly they’re far too similar

[Menalque]

At least I have an eyepatch, Jesus

Pirates 4 ever

[Menalque]

Do y'all think that me saying I was absurdly out of my scumrange in one night stand was just a lie

I mean I was scum there infinity, I didn’t have to worry about your alignment and was much more concerned with ali not getting what I was doing and doubling down on bussing tf out of me

[Menalque]

Wait why can’t vanders be scum with bingle?

[Menalque]

The fundamental question is “does infinity!scum take the risk of trying to paranoia/WIFOM everyone on skitter/bingle being in together, or not?”

[Menalque]

Pooky wagon feels super gross

[Menalque]

Yes, I hate this wagon so much

Why is this a thing

Basically anyone on the wagon bar maybe ydrasse would be a better wagon

Literally why

If you’re town and at least two of you are why are you throwing

[Menalque]

Like literally explain to me why pooky is scum

Substantiate any actual reason for it based on his play so far

[Menalque]

Ew

Gross

Gross wagon

V bad

Terrible

[Menalque]

VOTE: Pooky because what they just said about no face's scum read on them really made no sense at all.
This should be E-1

This is so gross fam omg

[Menalque]

Literally give me one reason why pooky is actually scum?

[Menalque]

And given that nobody is actually able to do that maybe this wagon is just terrible? Like maybe?

[Menalque]

@skitter where are you

[Menalque]

Come forth and berate these people with me

And also rethink ur vanders TR, look at that E-1 vote

[Menalque]

No

Explain

How are you PoEing on D1 when like multiple people in 6p aren’t out of range? How does that make any sense?

[Menalque]

none of me, no face, norwee, or vanders is notably more towny than pooky

[Menalque]

he said after 4 ninjas in a row

[Menalque]

Like literally explain to me why pooky is scum

Substantiate any actual reason for it based on his play so far

I think his case against no face is extremely weird, it just feels like a retaliation.
I don't understand why pooky thinks no face has to be scum for POEing pooky as scum and not town with an incorrect PoE. There was a comment in there that was something like "notice how no face is leaving himself out of his own suspect list" or something like that that I thought was very scummy.

I think pooky has done very little to try to solve the game, I think the only thing pooky has going for him is that he is imo blatantly not trying to look good, but this is also different from mystic bears in the coalition game where that slot was pretty obviously town.

Who cares? Like if pooky wanted to fabricate a case on no face to really push him as a mislim he’d prob just come up with actual solid reasons?

And pooky hardly ever does much to try and solve the game it’s why he’s an annoyingly difficult slot to solve, but that doesn’t actually make him scum, that’s just a feature of how he plays

[Menalque]

why are you being so stubborn about being townread

no face is, also, town. soulread as town.

vanders could be scum sure but i feel from underage that i get a different vibe and even if it's subtle it's enough to feel towny to me

and norwee i guess could be scum, sure, but he feels like he did in that normal

because i don’t think i’ve actually been particularly town so far

Or like I’m approaching this in a very similar way to how I’d approach it as scum, I guess

vanders is literally playing exactly as opportunistically as he did in UGC lmao? Like one incredibly blatant thing he did there was just put people to like E-1 or E-2 when they were viable for no reason, aka exactly what he just did to pooky here

No face is like, incredibly null off posting and that almost stretches into concerning if the hectic!alt assumption is correct

Norwee like could be scum but also could not be, he’s kind of concerningly fluffy

[Menalque]

Like literally explain to me why pooky is scum

Substantiate any actual reason for it based on his play so far

I think his case against no face is extremely weird, it just feels like a retaliation.
I don't understand why pooky thinks no face has to be scum for POEing pooky as scum and not town with an incorrect PoE. There was a comment in there that was something like "notice how no face is leaving himself out of his own suspect list" or something like that that I thought was very scummy.

If pooky is a player who doesn't solve games and frequently gives poor reasons for accusations, then sure, what you're saying is fair.

But I'm not reading someone giving bad reasons on a retaliated scum read as a reason to think they're town.

Yes, but he’s also decently accurate even if the stated reasoning isn’t there or is meh

And it’s not that I’m saying I have a locktown read on pooky

I’m saying this wagon is trash because there’s no reason to suspect pooky over multiple others in the 6p pool, and therefore the incredible ease with which he arrived at e-1 WITHOUT good reasons is a good reason to think now that he’s town

[Menalque]

If I get lim’d today I wanna be deadsheeped tomorrow

@pooky u owe me for the normal

[Menalque]

why are you being so stubborn about being townread

no face is, also, town. soulread as town.

vanders could be scum sure but i feel from underage that i get a different vibe and even if it's subtle it's enough to feel towny to me

and norwee i guess could be scum, sure, but he feels like he did in that normal

Norwee like could be scum but also could not be, he’s kind of concerningly fluffy

okay can i ask who you townread right now...? who isn't concerning?

Basically u

[Menalque]

If I get lim’d today I wanna be deadsheeped tomorrow

@pooky u owe me for the normal

didn't I save you in the normal on d1? lol

let's just call it even

I deadsheeped u on fark and helped save skitter!

[Menalque]

the scum in the 3pool can't bus

This isn’t true and is a bad assumption and lends itself to gambiting

[Menalque]

6p

Me
Ydra
Pooky
Norwee
No face
Vanders

3p

Skitt
Infinity/bingle

[Menalque]

I would say I actually TR u

Pooky is probably town from the way the game is moving around him, plus he did mindmeld about limming in 6p first which is still obviously the correct thing to do

Norwee is just like, not scummy as much as the other two

No face being so null is kinda more worrying than norwee being very null on balance

Vanders is actively scummy


***

Skitter is like fine and I will sheep her on her top SR prob

Infinity or bingle scum is kind of a tossup

Probably I’d lead bingle being scum there bc infinity is pissing me off in a similar way to how she normally pisses me off when town

[Menalque]

her voting me while clearly behaving as if I’m town is probably +town

[Menalque]

the scum in the 3pool can't bus

This isn’t true and is a bad assumption and lends itself to gambiting

i mean sure they could go very gambitty but I wanna push the scum to take risks in this kind of setup

Let’s just lim vanders and win automatically

[Menalque]

Also guess who’s opposed to a vanders lim pooky? 2/3 of the people who you’ve been saying can’t bus

[Menalque]

Right but if ur scum then it’s like unclear if the cred u get from outing optimal strategy is actually worth letting town follow optimal strategy when they might just... not, if you don’t mention it

Idk I generally err on the side of “don’t help town” when I’m scum, although there are obviously exceptions

[Menalque]

Vanders is scummy for being like incredibly milquetoast and then exceedingly opportunistic and seems to be one of the slots that 2/3 of the bus-disincentivised pool is avoiding

[Menalque]

I think there’s a lot of benefit to whoever is scum in skitter/bingle, assuming infinity!town, just sheeping the other’s reads as closely as possible

[Menalque]

Actually I take it back I think I have been towny this game

[Menalque]

I mean it’s normally a balance but if I’m helping it’s probably on a minor point or breaking up a not-too-major TvT fight

Idk towns go wrong a lot even when something is super duper blindingly fuckin obvious (see: the fact that there is debate this game over whether it’s better to lim in the 6p or the 3p pool first) so just not helping them is imo the standard thing for scum to do, and I also feel like that’s what pooky would more likely do, as I don’t think he’d feel like he’d need the cred to help him survive?

[Menalque]

I think there’s a lot of benefit to whoever is scum in skitter/bingle, assuming infinity!town, just sheeping the other’s reads as closely as possible

Why?

Bc it makes it a huge toss up between the two when eventual lim is needed

Like a very viable strat is to hope that the 6p can survive 2 days, which then gives you a situation where if you have a solid UTR in the 3p best town has is two days of 50/50 in a row

[Menalque]

he doesn't need it to survive but it's still nice nonetheless

i think another issue i have with him is that he has this really cool obvious plan, he is the number 1 fan for it, but i haven't seen him do a lot to like... see it to fruition to actually catch scum, which maybe im hypocritical bc lord knows i don't always do things, but idk, just feels like there's no passion there

yeh it’s nice but not worth just... not getting the cred and seeing if town successfully shoot themselves in the foot

again, when has pooky traditionally done that much to actually see his plans through? I think I’ve seen pooky kind of effort when pushing someone but mostly I feel like I only see him effort when he’s under pressure to not die

[Menalque]

I could also strongly entertain a no face wagon

[Menalque]

Infinity justify ur SR on me

[Menalque]

VOTE: no face

[Menalque]

So you’re basically voting me because you’re pissy about me lampooning the pooky wagon?

[Menalque]

I literally couldnt care less about the soul circle stuff, I’m just in a slightly peppery mood and seeing pooky reach E-1 for no reason was a provocation

[Menalque]

In the future if someone doesn't like a PoE vote that I make, questioning my TRs is much more useful than questioning the vote itself

I don’t follow at all

[Menalque]

Menalque I don't remember the last time you townread me D:

actually it was that time I was scum in nightmare :<

Vote vanders and u get to live

[Menalque]

Vanders you’re basically just saying I need to meta you and I’m saying I’m not doing that

I don’t think my unwillingness to do that makes my reasoning less valid

If you wanna try to present me with selected posts showing that you’re like equally opportunistic for lims when town as when scum, sure, I’ll roll it into consideration but rn u feel like scum, it’s related to how u played when we were just scum, but it’s not uniquely that

[Menalque]

Thank u @ydrasse that is very cute

[Menalque]

Like I hope I’m not being unpleasant to anyone if I am then I’ll take a break and come back tomorrow

[Menalque]

Vanders is scummy for being like incredibly milquetoast and then exceedingly opportunistic and seems to be one of the slots that 2/3 of the bus-disincentivised pool is avoiding

Your last point is incredibly poor, anyone who is not being actively scumread by 2/3 people in that pool fulfills those conditions.

Nah fam, both skitter and bingle have gone out of their way to talk about how ur town and why in a way they haven’t for anyone else in the 6p pool

[Menalque]

Infinity those are terrible takes no offence

[Menalque]

I mean I guess the ydrasse bit is okay

[Menalque]

ok, who am I incorrectly TRing and why

V A N D E R S

&

N O F A C E

[Menalque]

My reads are on fire lately

Lest we forget

Voted scum erryday I was alive

Defended town erryday I was alive

Good Mena Reads(tm) are rising in value, get ur money in now

[Menalque]

Pooky talk about vanders

[Menalque]

I think it's very possible you're town, the rand chance you're scum is obviously pretty low. If I had to decide right now between limming you and pooky it'd be a hard choice. Vander and no face I'm not too interested in looking at today, vander has felt more passionate than UGC and I wanna trust ydrasse on no face. Norwee and ydrasse are soulreads

Like this entire thing is presented in such a way as to discourage discussion of it or any effective dialogue around it

[Menalque]

Okay tomorrow is fine

[Menalque]

pretty sure van is just a wrong townie who is really sure he is right

y

don’t say “bc no face is the scum in our group”

[Menalque]

Also do u have like

A take on me?

[Menalque]

What if i lolhammer pooky

[Menalque]

Something I would never do obviously haha

Unless

[Menalque]

do you genuinely think he picks you as the person that he's after

i mean considering how pooky got to E-1

incredibly

easily this doesn’t seem so far fetched

[Menalque]

Pooky what would ur feelings be on me hammering u and then forcing no face through tomorrow when the wrong!bloc, as they will henceforth be known, have no more sway in the game for having pushed through your terrible lim?

[Menalque]

pooky, if you think he's trying to get just /an/ elimination, do you genuinely think he picks you as the person that he's after?

like, getting 1 town elim in the 6p pool does a lot for scum i think, so why not make it easier than you who will stand your ground?

ok who is easier to push for him right now than me? :3

i think before this he could have went with like, vanders, maaaaybe norwee

Yes, vanders who only i had expressed doubt about and who skitter and bingle, the widely ignored players that they are, had just towncased

[Menalque]

I get more serious with every pagetop you deny me

[Menalque]

I wouldn’t quickhammer u pooky

If I was gonna do it I’d have done it

I’m still holding out hope that vanders or no face accidentally gets put at E-1 and I can lolhammer

[Menalque]

Hang on, I have something for this

[Menalque]

pooky, if you think he's trying to get just /an/ elimination, do you genuinely think he picks you as the person that he's after?

like, getting 1 town elim in the 6p pool does a lot for scum i think, so why not make it easier than you who will stand your ground?

ok who is easier to push for him right now than me? :3

i think before this he could have went with like, vanders, maaaaybe norwee

Yes, vanders who only i had expressed doubt about and who skitter and bingle, the widely ignored players that they are, had just towncased

we both know vanders is easier to push than pooky in this playlist

[Menalque]

Im not sure which of my recent remarks that was in response to but I’m gonna go with emotional trauma

[Menalque]

Chronic fear of unlovableness

[Menalque]

Wait, did I confuse this mafia game with therapy again

I have got to stop doing that, man

[Menalque]

Menalque I don't remember the last time you townread me D:

actually it was that time I was scum in nightmare :<

Vote vanders and u get to live

I wouldn’t quickhammer u pooky

If I was gonna do it I’d have done it

I’m still holding out hope that vanders or no face accidentally gets put at E-1 and I can lolhammer

mostly these

im not sure I follow ur objection

[Menalque]

Bingle u coward i was about to post intent

[Menalque]

i might have been

[Menalque]

That's not a town!no face reaction because town him would be re-evaling as the push goes on and he sees how much traction he gets.

Remember he called me/bingle a team even after bingle pushed me.

So uh

How does you insisting that scum cannot bus and bingle then unvoting you tie into this equation?

[Menalque]

Substantiating my scumreads with reasons outside of PoE is not exactly something I'm known for

You appreciate how irritating this is tho right

[Menalque]

Skitt could I get a readslist from u too pls

[Menalque]

I mean if it reliably worked at significantly better than rand then okay, but have u considered that doing something that makes it actively harder to engage with you about your most important reads makes the overall town less functional even if it does (as opposed to you simply thinking it does) help u as a player

[Menalque]

Skitter and bingle why do you not want to eliminate infinity? And why is she still at the bottom for both of you?

[Menalque]

I mean I guess u seem surprisingly chill about accepting that instead of pushing harder for infinity

Largely the fact that he was pinging me yesterday for being just ~around~ imo, and v v bland in his takes (reminded me of UGC)

Plus him then making a super opportunistic vote on pooky which, again, lines up with what he did not once but at least twice in UGC, I wanna say like 3 times on the one day he was alive

Fair enough, but what you're asking me to do would require faking reads as town pretty often. I am trying to get better about articulating my reads though.

I don’t see how this would require faking reads?

[Menalque]

I’m saying if you can’t articulate why you think they’re scum then just be honest that they give you heebies but you can’t put your finger on why

But like that’s better than just saying “oh bc PoE”

[Menalque]

Skitter I hope u feel better tomorrow <3

[Menalque]

Menalque and skitter both scumread as usual

(I smile but I am actually reasonably frustrated)

It’s almost like when u do a gimmick account it’s harder to read u and makes me think ur scummier

[Menalque]

VOTE: norwee

[Menalque]

I'd probably win more towngames if I faked (reasons for my) reads as town tbh

Maybe u should do that then

[Menalque]

Really?

Whyfore? Just because I townread him?

Yes

Because I think he’s scum

No

[Menalque]

Talking about the ways in which and to what extent ydrasse is town is like the least interesting thing we could be doing

The most interesting? Yeeting norwee into the void

[Menalque]

I will only speak in iambic pentameter in all micro games I play for the rest of 2021 if the next 4 posts are norwee votes

[Menalque]

Why do you think norwee is scum?

Because of posts in his ISO

[Menalque]

lol

Bc I think that after actually looking back at the posts between pooky and hectic it could be SvT but it could be TvT

If it’s the latter, which seems more likely after rereading around 600 (I think, this is off memory), the person who seems most set up to benefit from that is norwee

[Menalque]

Plus I don’t really think anyone has good reasons to TR him

Y dont u think he’s scum?

[Menalque]

liked his gamestate analysis

Why/what about it

[Menalque]

Your handwaivey everything argument is kinda disappointing,

I’m not really sure what you mean here

Like I don’t think I handwaived it at all, I p clearly explained why I’m now thinking norwee’s approach to the game is sus

[Menalque]

I’m looking forward to you getting fully caught up, norwee

[Menalque]

I think it's pretty clear that scum should at least not be less incentivized to have bussed so far,

Да

[Menalque]

It’s just norwee guys

[Menalque]

Counterpoint why would norwee put himself in the 3p

[Menalque]

I guess we’ll see once we’ve flipped you

[Menalque]

Norwee don’t be like that

Just accept that I caught u once again and prepare a speech on how it was for all the wrong reasons for postgame:)

[Menalque]

Pooky i think you’re wrong and should take a step back because i really don’t think what no face is saying about why he first voted you is unreasonable or scummy really

[Menalque]

yo infinity what’s your read on hectic again?

[Menalque]

@skitt i feel kinda more concerned by you in this game than I have in a while

[Menalque]

Okay, I was wondering if it might be for NAI reasons related to irl which is why I haven’t been pushing the issue

I think knowing you have a 33% chance of being scum and I think probably practical chance of 50% might also be affecting things

[Menalque]

I think also it bothers me that the group of 3 exists as it is?

It strikes me as a really weird grouping and it seems ~somewhat more likely that you would willingly be in that group as it is than that infinity or bingle would

I also think that if we figure out why the group of 3 is the 3 it is that probably solves the game just about

[Menalque]

VOTE: vanders

[Menalque]

When pooky flips town people are likely to come after him

But are they tho, practically speaking ?

[Menalque]

You've said those exact words in literally every game you've played with town me, afaicr.

Fun fact: I’m p sure skitt picked up occasionally saying “go on” from me, because I started saying it a lot after seeing her use “do tell” in many of her games

[Menalque]

Oh wait you mean she says you have an agenda driven vibe every game LMAO ignore me

[Menalque]

I think norwee is probably town

Me, ydra, norwee

Idk if I’m TRing ydra for like ~great reasons~ but there it is

So fmpov scum is in (no face, pooky, vanders) most likely

Pooky — if scum, most likely scum with skitter, then bingle, then infinity?

No face — if scum, most likely with bingle(?), then infinity, then skitt

Vanders — if scum, most likely with skitter, then bingle, then infinity

[Menalque]

It’s lowkey weird that norwee hasn’t wanted to talk to me all game
