hi ari! : )

[Aristeia]

I've read a few snippets of this game while bored but I will re-read everything now

UNVOTE:

[Aristeia]

re-read everything and my first guess for the team is fire - skitter - catboi

VOTE: fireisredsir

If you pull up skitter/catboi's isos - there's a marked lack of discussion of bella/fire's actual alignment despite engagement around the slot which feels susp.

[Aristeia]

hi ari! : )

hello fire! good to see you again!

[skitter30]

Oh hello ari!

[skitter30]

I feel like Yeet is deliberately trying to play to a certain style and that'¢ why their posts seem so fake. I'd guess alt trying to play more flippantly or something like that. Not saying it makes them town but it makes them not someone you can scumread on tone

I mean possibly, i think they're capable of looking town if they want to

My issue is more that their posts ans reads dont really make sense and lack follow-through from post-to-post

[skitter30]

It's very angle shooty. Replace out after going VLA pings me. The slot was already getting scum read but wasn't going to be around to defend themself. If town or a Goon then it would be just be whatever, the wagon would probably dissipate anyway. But if you're the game ending role there's going to be a sense of responsibility and pressure to play well enough to not auto lose Day 1. So replacing out makes sense if you don't want to feel like you're letting your team down.

Ok per site rules we really shouldnt read so much into this but this is a townie post

[skitter30]

VOTE: fire

my mental is paper mache right now so expect ... not a lot less than usual from me

i think that right now fire could be the bomb because yeet doesn’t want to vote there it’s like... there are two options other than yourself and things aren’t really locked in yet i guess but it feels strange to go down the hem road right now and their interactions feel weird

Uh this is A Post

(Firstly feel better ydra <3)

But:
- preflips are bad
- using them to assume that anyone is the bomb is bad
- do you even scumread fire independantly other than the fact that yeet isnt voting thrm?

Why dont you vote yeer first?

Also fwiw while bella's opening was Bad i dont really have an issue with fire thus far, a coupoe of their posts even townpinged

[skitter30]

like the way fire comes into the game is sort of

pepper reads into things a scumread here or there but yeet is there as the focus kill yeet at the end of the day but yeet can’t bus back because if fire is the bomb and anyone really jumps on that it’s game over

and yeet is sort of saying what don’t you get this is why i townread you duh because ... yeah there’s no other alternative

i think the other choice right now would be catboi but ifk it feels good when cat goes “excuse me?” to yeet calling fire town because it doesn’t all make sense well

Ok but this is like presupposing fire is bomb, why are you coming to this conclusion vs just thinking fire is town scumreading yeet

This almost reads ydra/yeet?

[Aristeia]

hi skitter ! !

I agree on roden's post about bella repping out as an alpha zombie feeling v townie :>

[Aristeia]

- preflips are bad
- using them to assume that anyone is the bomb is bad

mmm I somewhat disagree - I think we can have higher chance of hitting the bomb on d1 if we use some preflips/vca

[skitter30]

doesnt make you town tho

I mean sure but doesn't make him scum either

I think bella's entry post is being overweighted tbh

[skitter30]

- preflips are bad
- using them to assume that anyone is the bomb is bad

mmm I somewhat disagree - I think we can have higher chance of hitting the bomb on d1 if we use some preflips/vca

In principal i agree but i'm kinda dubious that we'll actually get there in practice without chasing our tails

And hi+

[skitter30]

I'm also not sure i get the umlaut suspicion

I mean her first post was bad yeah
Didnt make her scum, i even noted the andante vote could have a relatively benign explanation

Also fwiw while bella's opening was Bad i dont really have an issue with fire thus far, a coupoe of their posts even townpinged

i mean we have literally 1 day to hit the bomb and instawin so i'm gonna look for reads that suggest someone is more/less likely to be bomb

and voting yeet was e-1

with enchant in the game

i think that fire is scummy in context with yeet being scum and that's not what you want but in a game like this it's like

the way they interact fits like ... the pattern i guess of how scum "optimally" play or w/e or what they want to do in this situation and it's not optimally honestly but it's like... the choices they have to make even if it's a bit awkward when you read over how they interact

and i also think that (and i said myself already tho i didnt know he said it) what roden said about the rep is... pretty on the nose for why the slot went through the rep in

[skitter30]

Although i'm kinda baffled why you think behaving that way towards the slot is partner-y or why you think scum-me and scum-catbou both choose to interact with a partner in the exact same way

Also why do u scumread fire? Because of bella?

[skitter30]

Whoops that was at ari ^

Roden's point about bella makes sense to me.

The weird place you and catboi treat the slot.

and fire's posts just don't feel very like town!fire.

[Aristeia]

it's not really about the same way - it's like a negative void space where a read should be but isn't.

[skitter30]

Hi ydra!

So are u saying that fire is bomb-scum who saw his partner being voted on like p12 and chose to bus him

And that yeet not voting him back makes him scum ...

Like sure i guess that can be An explanation but like i'm not convined that's fhe most likely explanation ... ?

[skitter30]

it's not really about the same way - it's like a negative void space where a read should be but isn't.

I didnt think there was enuf to read bella off of off that one post. It was a bad post but didnt lock-scum her or anything, and she left before i could ask her abt it more

[Aristeia]

I guess me and ydra agree that fire is likely the alpha but we disagree about the partner equity but since hitting the bomb is an auto-win it doesn't really matter who the partners are if we get the bomb right.
