Micro 1033: XD [Game Over]

[Bingle]

But seriously, Mystik is reaching obvjester territory.

Disagree, looks like town to me now

This is a solid read if it is who I think it is. I won’t be naming my guess as I have a personal policy against outing alts (even as a guess), but I’m pretty sure this is town spiral.

Sanity check my LQ case?

[LicketyQuickety]

Sad, you are open Jestering at this point.

Spoiler:

Woe to our children if we should fall
Who would answer when they call?
Will we hear them before we die?
When we’re cut down, will they cry?

Where are you guys seeing jester

Looks like genuine frustrated town to me

Sure, I'll call them Town so we don't Yeet them. I'm down for that.

[Bingle]

Holy misrep, Batman!

Jester hunting isn’t scummy.

Doing nothing but jester hunting is scummy.

And I want to know what sort of mental contortionist bullshit you have to pull to claim that a possible jester read on Wisdom is TMI.

1. How is it a misrep?

Eh i wouldnt be opposed to lq going but i think i prefer Imaginality still

That's... not all I am doing? Like do I have reads outside of that? Check the box for yes or no.

[Mystik Spiral]

if you’re going to continue to waste my time, i will stop trying to engage you, you are claiming a read on me based on the way i talk every single game i’m in. i once got wrongly sr because of my “formal way of speaking” or something like it. if this is the best that you’ve got, i don’t even know how to respond to that.

You have no way to show you do this every game though???

no, because i’m playing on an alt and i won’t out it just to prove you wrong.

[LicketyQuickety]

Somehow Bingle knows I'm not Jester for some reason. Which is strange given my odd behavior. But no, I'm lock Scum because he didn't like my first post.

But by all means, keep inventing new reasons for SRing me. I don't mind. I just expect you to get Limmed next Game Day.

I was pretty sure you were TRing Wisdom since they don't die before D4. Where am I wrong here? Is this just a Jester read or a TR as well? I sorta felt like there was a TR in there somewhere, but I can go back and check if you want.

[LicketyQuickety]

Clem is my SR, and you are nearing that trajectory as well.

Iirc, wisdoms jester plan is to play the setup as straight as possible, so that’s probably jester or town and Meg seems town.

Okay, Jester or Town. Glad we got that settled.

Maybe I switched plans

What?

Like, if you're Jester then your plan is definitely to play it straight, because you're playing it straight. If you're not Jester, then switching plans would be irrelevant because you wouldn't be playing to a Jester plan.

Regardless, my takeaway here is Wisdom never dies before D4.

Why is this so hard to understand?

Wisdom feels slightly town, that’s my first read

:raised eyebrows:

tell me more

You yourself are somewhat TRing Wisdom at this point, correct?

Not just on 8ball and he actually posted elsewhere and not here, thats why I said it

Cake also feels not jestery enough with that post, but we'll see

Imagine doesn’t have any board posts between the two in this game. This post is not only a lie, but an easily seen through one.we should definitely eliminate wisdom at the start of D4.

Bingle not considering the PT explanation for Wisdom's post adds to my belief Bingle isn't scum here.

How so?

Ah, yes, the classic "Why am I not Scum/Why am I Town?" as Scum is a classic move that is classic.

I hear it's drawback-free in 8-ball too

I mean... despite the satisfaction of being called town for qh-ing wisdom we did end up losing. Still. Definitely worth it.

Only quoted this because Wisdom is in it. IDK, don't hat me.

Sure. Are you sure you are not Jester hunting Wisdom? Like, maybe like I am doing with Mystic? And LOL, am I your only SR? That's rich.

I always laugh when this is posted. Something about the song, amirite?

[Bingle]

they don't die before D4.

D4 is the day that we no longer have to worry about jesters. Explicitly, wisdoms play here mirrors his play the last time he was a jester exactly.

I do think he’s more town than scum, but that’s not at all what that post suggested and I wasn’t burying that lead at all. Claiming you didn’t get that is basically admitting you weren’t reading my posts critically.

Your iso contains literally nothing about clem actually being a scumread before I called you out for not scumhunting. The angle of “Well akshually I scumread him for a lack of content” came AFTER the callout. Beforehand, he was just the only player you didn’t call town or jester in the entire player list. You, in fact, said literally nothing about him.

You’re also trying to paint me as just assuming you’re not jester when I pretty clearly made the case to why you were playing a survivalistic game.

But yeah, your inability to quote a scumread precallout kinda speaks for itself, now don’t it?

[Bingle]

My SR of Clem is based on their lack of content, yes. Was that somehow unclear in my first post? Is lack of content generally Scummy? Y or N?

And please sign on the dotted line where you're willing to bet the game I'm Scum, thanks. I see no indication from your posts you think I'm Jester. But I can go back and check if you want me to.

More like my jester play that game mirrored my town play

[Mystik Spiral]

Scum Clem in this game was really really absent, much like here

First instinct is he's scum again but I'm kind of worrying he does this as jester knowing he gets lim'd

Spoiler:

hello im jester
VOTE: sircakez

i promise i'll play slightly more townie than usual
probably

i tend to play more survivory than town because i'm unconfident in my abilities

yep clem is most likely not jester here
Id expect him to be having fun instead of being absent

or maybe that's what i want you to think
~(v-v)~

Scum Clem in this game was really really absent, much like here

well looking at his iso, he seems to really want you to think he’s jester and i think jester would do more? idk how useful that other game is as a comparison because a jester mechanic affects the way people play. also possible he could also be town? what strikes me is him saying he will play more townie and less survivalistic but he hasn’t done anything townie yet, so there’s an odd kind of self-consciousness to his play here.

198 sounds more town than anything tbh

Jester and scum dont blatantly say that, they go subtly about it

It sounds more like bored town

i’m really not sure what to do but this back and forth on Clemency makes me feel really good about wisdom being likely town, so i think i should just probably sheep your vote.

Bingle, don’t you think this read reversal on Clemency is town indicative for Wisdom? he obviously couldn’t have anticipated i’d post that string of quotes?

[LicketyQuickety]

Wisdom feels slightly town, that’s my first read

His positions feel pretty nuanced rn

What does it tell you if it’s real?

the entire ISO doesn’t feel scummy to me.

Really? I think it comes across as being very meh. The wisdom read came when people were starting to share reads and was pretty fencesitty. Thinking the reads were nuanced but not commenting on them or looking into if they were real (it took literally two clicks for me to see that imaginality wasn't posting in public areas of the site) does not fill me with a wholesome town impression. Asking about what I want to know about his own potential slip also doesn't seem town at any level and is very surface level posting from any alignment. Note: none of this is a reason to scumread Gamma, but I wouldn't townread it at all.

casing lq, i’m currently leaning town on him and i disagree with Bingle that jester hunting is necessarily scum indicative because town also loses if they mistakenly lim jester.

It’s only scummy if they are not also looking for scum

and since i do think it’s very possible that imaginality could be jester here, i question the confidence in the votes there.

before gamma replaced out, my read on them was town or jester. i really didn’t see much in his ISO that was agenday and i don’t really get scum vibes from lq, so idk if the rationale behind votes on him. are based off of Gamma unlikely replacing out as jester and it’s just a safe vote?

Exactly my point: Look at 107.

The difficult part about this game is we can't just form a PoE of Town and be good because Jester can act like mock-Town. Not a good strategy for Jester, but I can see Jester act just enough like Town to make it look like they are trying to LAMIST but just lay it on thick.

Based on how the game is going so far, I think

we just Lim Scummy people. I have like 3 jester reads

at this point: Cakes, Image, Mystik.

I had Mystic and Wisdom as Jester reads but then ISO'd to make sure and I reevaluated.

We should lim scum. Also, let me tell you about all of my Jester reads.

TRs on Wisdom, Meg, and Bingle, but Bingle doesn't live to D4. Just a hunch really but I felt like they were trying to ObvTown too hard when the rest of the thread was just screwing around. This could just be a bad take though, IDK.

Wisdom's 27 is not really fakable, so I'm willing to call this lack of TMI. I don't think this is the sort of thing Scum will fake. Could it just be not getting something? Yes, but generally Scum WANT to be informed on stuff so I think the lack of TMI read holds here. There are other reasons to TR Wisdom for but this stuck out to me for some reason. Again, might be a bad take, because I basically suck at this game.

I like 68 from Meg. Blatantly saying they think their post is Townie seems cocky. IDK if Meg has the stones for that sort of thing as Mafia.

Bingle has had a number of analysis posts that I liked, but then again, it might just

actually

be LAMIST since he's going so hard at this game. But IDK. Just don't want to think about Limming them at this point.

These are my townreads, but also let me cast doubt on all of them so that it'll be easy to backtrack. Also, (and this came from the beginning of the post but fits better here):

TOWNREADS AREN'T WORTH MUCH. HERE ARE MY TOWNREADS.

On the second ISO of Mystik, I can see them as Jester. They seem to have some takes just off-center enough to make it look like they are bad Town - enough that it looks like they are Scum. If you're Town, then just take it as me not wanting to Lim you.

That just leaves Clemency. So I guess I will go there since they have no content yet.

VOTE: Clemency

Oh, look. More Jester reads.

And, at the end of this, what does he do? Votes LHF. Not because Clemency is scum, but because he's not one of the townreads LQ is actively shading and thinks can't be trusted but because LQ has decided everyone else is either town or Jester. He's not scumhunting at all.

How about we flip Clem and then we can see who is not looking at things with biased eyes?

My Jester reads were reads I thought were possible to be Jester. Am I supposed to have more Mafia Reads than Jester reads for some reason? I'd like you to go back and look at a Scum game of mine (don't care which one) and try and see if I am this bad WITH READS as Mafia. Go ahead. Look for where I do a RL and tell me they are as wack as you are suggesting I am doing in this game. Like, pretty sure RL are quite easily fakable as Scum. So if you really think I am this bad as Mafia that I can't even formulate decent (manipulative) reads as Mafia, then you got me. But that's not gonna happen brodha, because it's one of the only things I'm good at as Mafia is throwing people off the scent of Scum as Mafia as Mafia. Take me up on this. Will take you 5 minutes. Else, I will just share my own examples. The choice is yours.

I agree that LQ isn't likely Jester, not because of the GE replace, (although if I squint I can see the argument he'd be more excited to play if he'd rolled the namesake role I think GE wouldn't let something like that effect her and this is probably just a regular NAI replace) but because he comes across as trying to convince me not to scumread him genuinely.

I also think that imagine is not Jester, given that I'm getting buddying feels there. I'd probably be willing to vote him if LQ wasn't obvscumming so hard.

Where is this "LQ is playing the long game" post, because I'm not seeing it

But seriously, Mystik is reaching obvjester territory.

Disagree, looks like town to me now

This is a solid read if it is who I think it is. I won’t be naming my guess as I have a personal policy against outing alts (even as a guess), but I’m pretty sure this is town spiral.

Sanity check my LQ case?

I really don't think Mystik is going to reply to this, because they are Jester.

[Wisdom]

I dislike you pushing they're jester when its like my most confident not-jester read, but since that actually means we both dont want them limd i dont think theres scum motivation in it

[Wisdom]

I could see you being jester however, some of your posts feel like you want to enrage mystik and bingle on purpose

[Mystik Spiral]

I dislike you pushing they're jester when its like my most confident not-jester read, but since that actually means we both dont want them limd i dont think theres scum motivation in it

if he’s doubling down on this jester read, he’s likely setting me up to be miselimed later no? and how is that any different from what imaginality’s doing?

[Wisdom]

How? He isnt calling you scum, just jester
