Have you read Cupcake's posts on the same page?

[Save The Dragons]

what the balls

[Save The Dragons]

cupcake butterfly can you give like thoughts or something

[DrippingGoofball]

Scumcakes and Moths

I choose: The gamestate.

Talk at length about what you think the general state of the thread means. If you must have a name to talk about to kick off your reading, Yuri makes sense as a cw to you, but a wall about a single player is really not what we need right now.

[Bingle]

I would murder:

FG
GuiltyLion
CB
Lavar

right now if any of them were L-1.

Is there anyone who is townreading any of these slots?


Seriously, I've done fuckall this game and I'm still the top 50% of content. I'm

only beating the mod by 4 posts

and yet I'm one of the higher content slots.

With that said, CB's "I need help to get into a 40 page game that's been open for a week" doesn't jive with me as coming from town who has played with more than half the list, so my vote remains there atm. I'm townreading everyone who has posted more content than me with the exception of the Solo50 slot, and of those I'm weakest on Dusa. I think STD is probably town. Titus gets a day to get her sealegs and I didn't dislike hypo's input while she was here and DGB seems to be pushing things that make sense.

UNO, what are your thoughts? You're poking but are you actually getting anything from your pokes?

[OkaPoka]

Yeah my tr on guilty has evaporated

[Dannflor]

. I think STD is probably town.

I also arrived here but I’m interested in what changed your mind

[OkaPoka]

I'm interested in how this gimmick plays out tbh

[OkaPoka]

I guess my two questions are firstly (1) why do you think it's contradictory for me to both want to shut down mechtalk and to say that I want to sheep a townread on it later? like I feel like your reason in 758 is ascribing thoughts to me that I just don't have and idk why you're doing that as opposed to the opposite. talking specifically about the "something you say to look townie"... like no, that's just where my head was at. and secondly regarding that same post is that while I suppose I get you seeing me not wanting mechtalk and going "yeah this is something I've seen scum do before" but it seems like a flawed basis for a read given that yes, I'd be saying that if I were scum, but I'm saying it now as town because I just have an intense apathy towards mechtalk

the other thing is that I don't really see how (2) the fact I'm being contradictory to your eyes leads you to me being scum? like fine, maybe it is hypocritical for me to take that position (still don't think it is, but let's say I can't sell you on that) -- I don't get from like 759 why this leads you into thinking I'm scum?

I think ive answered the first q already

Second q, i think you decided to be more open to mech afterwards rather than coming into it being open to mech

[OkaPoka]

Hypocritical not bc two ideas really but bc i think you decided to purposely alter your beliefs to be more defensible

[OkaPoka]

And its not a case of changing ur mind i think that is contextually clear

[OkaPoka]

ig how id picture scum you:

"I need to take a stance, let's just say i hate mech and im going to make a quick comment about vigging these nerds so I can put myself out there and maybe get townread for my boldness"
"ah wait, just being antimech is not a ground i want to fight on, maybe ill just be anti talking about mech so im a lil more nuanced and such"

if you were town
"i don't like talking about mech i will shoot you if you talk about mech"
"but also ill sheep someone on mech that i townread"

i feel like its harder for me to justify the second world

[OkaPoka]

w that being said you should move on im interested in what else you have and my case is not a bulletproof case but i think its better than everything that exists rn and im not tilted enough yet to just want to lim lhf

[T3]

CB/Noraa still scum.

LMAO

You must guess when it's YOUR turn, silly! You could give a Cupcake Butterfly picture so you can force me to do your bidding, within the negotiated rules~

That is... a strange anime.

[Cupcake Butterfly]

I choose: The gamestate.

Talk at length about what you think the general state of the thread means. If you must have a name to talk about to kick off your reading, Yuri makes sense as a cw to you, but a wall about a single player is really not what we need right now.

The gamestate feels like it has fluctuated with activity levels depending on the day.

It's chaotic as several players have reached a notable amount of votes at some point {Cupcake, Guilty, Yuri, Dragons, Gamma Emerald, Solo}, and there's no clear consensus on scum beyond multiple players voting someone for generally agreed-upon reasons.

My first impression of Yuri was uncertainty because the starting of his posts focused largely on his interaction with you, Bingle, as well as opposition to mechanical discussion (in posts where he dismisses Oka's interjection and mechtalk to acquire a read). He doesn't break this until 545, when he shifts attention to GuiltyLion, Hypo, and Solo. Any feeling of an agenda begins to dissipate because there's no clear point of discussion that Yuri is basing his interactions around, which rings as likelier town since there's no set method to his posts. I liked the vote against Dannflor because that slot was vocal and Yuri's vote was the first against him, which felt both natural and uninhibited. I don't detect any content involving Dragons even though he was the largest wagon at the time, so there's little context to question whether Dann was meant to be a counterwagon. The aversion to being pocketed in 802 is something I don't think concerns scum in most situations, scum tends to work off players that they have some form of influence on, and Yuri both opposes this interaction and prevents it from someone else he's stated to have a hard time reading. I don't know his history on the site or with you, so I can't speak to his sincerity on how he perceives your slot. Part of me is weary about where your townread on him comes from, since it's not clear what you think about them beyond that "they're probably town."

The two of you don't feel TvS, and because this gamestate is a bit hard to find a consistent pace, and there's confirmed town among all the wagons so far numerically - I'm good with leaning into my assessment of town for at least this dayphase. Also because I've skimmed and noted that the largest factor in Yuri continuing discussion about his views of your slot and mechtalk are through inquiry from Dannflor and OkaPoka.

Since this translates to the gamestate having wagons bullseye-ing town, I'm losing trust in the votes on the current wagons.

And me being a counterwagon could imply two things I see right now:

1.

Scum are deflecting from a Yuri wagon, either to whiteknight a suspected town for credit or to protect a scumbuddy.

2.

I'm an easy vote for scum to jump onto since everybody generally scumreads me for two universally noted reasons: I have not committed to a scumread openly, and I have had inconsistent activity.

Both situations are not mutually exclusive, which is part of what prompted me to launch

The Wheel of Speech!

Since I failed to actually create a diagram or an ISO, I'll compensate for a GIF of Yumeko Jabami to capture the vibe of my thoughts on the gamestate.


p-edit

That is... a strange anime.

You typed "amazing" wrong.

[Cupcake Butterfly]

let me know if the GIFs are too much, the anime is a bit wild with expressions hehe :3

[T3]

I watched it as an 11 year old kid and had nightmares about it for a month after. Not kidding.

[T3]

As for the actual game and - not - uh.... - the anime girls from reading the past few pages I tr Bell.

[Cupcake Butterfly]

ooof, that's unfortunate. would you want me to find other types of GIFs?

On a roll from 2 to 5, I rolled a 3!

DrippingGoofball's, turn.

No you wouldn't you Binglehead

you'd want to make sure the first 8 votes are from people you want in the 1st neighborhood

[LavarManos]

T3 seems townie
Above post is sorta awkward because it seems to be dodging Bingle's suspicion.

[Dannflor]

this is purely a reads list and not an evaluation of character

some things have changed since last time I expressed reads on certain people, so I'll type up a more thorough text to go with this later but for now, AMA

[Dannflor]

T3 seems townie

where exactly did you get that from his 4 posts
