Tris is good too, hectic idk. The way he was sorting you felt overdone somehow.
Elaborate on the overdoneness?

If cakez is scum, he probably came up with this answer after I asked him about it, which means this is towny I think.

Normally if I had a scumtell on someone but they were otherwise towny I'd wait to see how things developed, it felt like hectic's original push on ydrasse could've been to show that he was trying to read her. It's true that he didn't really have to go through that much effort as scum though.

Uh, basically if scum!cakez posts "trying something" and has a town motivation in mind, he'd want to share that motivation as soon as possible to look town. He didn't do that, which means if cakez is scum he probably came up with that answer after the fact. That doesn't seem super likely to me so I think the sequence was +town for cakez. Idk if that makes sense

Is being lazy really a towntell for you though? Every game I've seen of town!you you've done those KAMEHAMEHA walls pretty early
Means the game isn't moving fast when I'm not occasionally checking in. Like 1 page has passed...

Why are those posts not from town!Ydrasse? I don't know their meta at all.
It makes sense to those familiar with Ydrasse but I need context to it.

I disagree - I think it does. Beyond that, Flea actively campaigned against themselves. They’re the only player to do it. Self-voting is technically optimal right, since the only alignment you know for certain is your own. Actively campaigning against yourself is sub-optimal. But in a game with few Scum (it’s only 9 of us, 3 Scum or more seems like a ridiculous reach with powers up for grabs), eliminating yourself from contention seems like a bad idea. At least you wouldn’t rule yourself out, right? So it’s probably Town. That’s my logic.
I don't think that's particularly hard to fake as scum, telling people to not to heal yourself I mean. With the aim being that people townread you for your lack of care of being friended. I see your point and maybe it's slightly more likely to be genuine than a gambit, but it's not much more likely
I agree.

Why did that comment from andres look like it was hin trying to make himself look towny?

I thought it was towny for him to debate about it in the post and then townread Ali for it anyway
it's more the fact that he's spelling out the debate process to me that i dislike, thinking that he's trying to make it seem like he's thinking about things when he could have just said "i think this is anti-town behavior but i still scumread it"
the way he phrases things there seems fine to me. i feel like i say similar things some times

A decision has been made.
"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."

The teacher of the class Amaterasu Ohkami.

"Greeting students! I trust you all brought your pets with you, so that you can perform your heart orb lab activities? It is difficult to get in touch with students before the first day but we sent several letters."

Isis face flashed with shades of embarrassed and worried purple. She knew about the requirement, and it was the very reason she had adopted her little sphinxling this year, but she hadn't expected it to be necessary the very first day.

"Um, mine's at the vet," she stuttered.

It was true, but it was a vet visit she could have scheduled at a different time.

"Well, care is important. But you need a subject to practice. You'll have to join another pair. Move your chair."

Isis looked around at all the groups that were paired up. Many of them had this look as though they'd known eachother for years and had joined the Academy together, which made her hesitant about crashing the party.

But finally she saw one girl who looked like a flame sorcerer paired with a relatively pedestrian looking girl. It seemed less likely that they knew eachother, which made it seem like a safe bet.

"H-hi."

"Hi! The first day of class is never too hard" Tea Gardner said. Her Fire Sorcerer was quieter.

"Ok class. Today were going to first learn about heart row unbinds! With the proper equipment, you can use a row of heart orbs to unbind any ally! Put your pet on the table and open the box."

Tea Gardner picked Sha 77 up and put his blobby body onto the center of the table. Then she opened up and a deluge of black energy leapt from the box and wrapped around Sha 77, pinning him to the table.

"Squeeeeee".

"I will provide you with Heart orbs in a moment. First, observe what the binding itself is like."

"Squee.. Skee..."

Sha 77 looked up at Isis with round, pleading eyes. She felt too much compassion for his poor suffering and touched him and used her active skill, before anyone had any heart orbs. The black binding broke away.

"Yip! Yip!"

"Shh.. stay down.. uh.. sorry you two.. he looked so miserable."

"Oh, it's ok. I've taken this class before, and it doesn't seem like you need it." Tea said generously.

Sha 77's halo glowed.

After restoration class, Isis invited Tea Gardner, Fire Sorcerer, and Sha 77 to go down and meet Ydrasse with her.

There were lots of other students outside of all stripes.

They all chatted for a bit, until suddenly, a rather crimsonly dispositioned student approached Isis.

Image

"Hey! Try to beat me at volleyball! I'm here on an athletic scholarship, you're here on an academic scholarship, right? It'll be fun for everyone to watch. Don't worry - fair is fair, I'll quiz bowl ya tomorrow.

You need five teammates to play volleyball on the Pad Academy court."

Theurgia pointed to brightly coloured court under the shade of some trees. With the gentle breeze, it seemed like win or lose, it would be fun. But.. wouldn't it be crazy, if with the right team, Isis could win?

"I'll warn you.. we play with jammerballs instead of normal balls, and they move fast but are really lightweight. It might matter more to have a group of friends that are mentally in sync than to just have the most athletic players, which only helps a little."

Ydrasse thought, twirling her hair. "I have lots of aggressive friends I could call in to make you a fast team, Isis."

Sha 77 fluttered in the air, bouncing on Fire Sorcerer's hat and tilting the brim of her hat at goofy angles. It seemed to somehow mean he was equally able to assemble a volleyball team.
"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"

At this point in time by design, the entire setup is revealed.

All players were told to heal a player, then heal another player, only being told it would help town if that player is town.

Isis, Scholarship Student at Noon leads teams of Attackers and Healers. She gets bonuses when cooperating with those types of characters.

Ydrasse became Fasca, an Attacker leader who leads attackers and only attackers.

Sha 77 became Tea Gardner & Shining Friendship and Fire Sorcerer, a Healer who leads only healers. In PAD it's also an attacker but for the purposes of this game it's not an attacker. They're both leader-oriented cards so it does kind of make sense, only one of the two could be a leader. I had to pick Tea to reference Gacha Mafia, it was too perfect that it was actually a healer type leader which is rare but was designed into this game.

During N1, Ydrasse shall target five players, other than herself or Sha 77, and make them attackers. Some players might be both healer and attacker.

Sha 77 shall target five players, other than himself or Ydrasse, and make them healers.

If more than one player gains neither type, those players form a neighborhood for the rest of the game.

No one will be NKed. Day two, all players will choose a set of five healers or five attackers (remember, Ydrasse is an attacker, and Sha 77 is a healer). This is a majority vote. If all five of those players are town, both mafia will be revealed and instantly slain! If 1-2 of those players are mafia (oh, yeah, by the way, this is a 7-2, that gets revealed now also), then nothing happens, and the game proceeds to a D2 elimination, and then the rest of the game is mountainous.
