Open 869 | Fight for the Winter Court [Game Over!]

[Faker]

If there's contention over who wants Wall v. Gate I'm comfortable just letting demona choose who she wants to bring TBH.

Maybe I'll see the answer and start throwing ????s at her but we'll see.

Where do u think town-me should go?

I want town-you to go where you want to go.

Thinking about it some more this morning, I'm less concerned. Just because catboi and/or Faker wouldn't be in the same minigame with you doesn't mean they can't influence your game and vice versa. That applies to any scenario about your alignments.

I think i want to go to wall
But i'm a little ???? at the notion that you're finding it sus that i want to go to wall as that's a good pairing for scum-me without really having an opinion on where town-me would go instead

[skitter30]

i am not opposed in case you thought my recent posts were voicing opposition to you joining the wall

like in theory i could maybe understand absinthe’s position that she was worried about scum!you potentially wanting to fool me but it seemed like she was saying that scum!absinthe would want to fool me because i am unfamiliar with absinthe but! i am not unfamiliar with you

I wasnt including you there fwiw

And i read absinthe post abt being worried abt a me/you/coral pairing

[Tempest]

I think the reason some said no to the wall is that isis and chara said they want to go to the wall together. Not sure why they didn’t kick that in.

[Coral]

Demona does look pretty town it's also the townread in the game I feel I can pull out of the 1000 jigsaw and put down as a corner piece.

I'm finally fully caught up.

I kinda don't like skitter at wall because I dont understand or buy her demona-kinship preference at all. I understand game pref though

I'm falling aslepo

I feel very similar here. I have somewhat been using demona town as a corner piece to worldbuild off of. I haven't delved super deep on it and probably will do so day 2 if needed, but demona does seem quite town to me, and does seem like the slot or one of the slots here where I can feel the most comfortable about a townread.

With that in mind, I think skitter's stated ability to read demona seems like it doesn't exactly live up to the value that she is placing on it. I don't really mind her going with demona, but I don't think it's that significant in terms of EV.

I suppose the possible alternative I'm missing is that skitter thinks she can find scum!demona when the rest of us won't, but that isn't really the impression I was getting.

It's pretty simple, though? I trust town-you to make a good choice for you and for town. I didn't object to you going to the wall last night. Your trio was what set me off.

[Faker]

Thinking about this more I do prefer skitter at the Gate. I think demona/Coral/skitter as the final 3 would be really rough in a scum-skitter world.

[Faker]

Wall: domna, Chara, Isis
Gate: Tempest, skitter, Coral
Keep: Faker, catboi, absinthe

is my preference in a vacuum. Arguably Tempest/absinthe should swap but I do like the idea of clear-Tammy. I think that's a very favorable Gate regardless of who the scum player/clear would be.

[Faker]

I don't know how I managed to fuck up demona's name that badly, wow

[absinthe]

I intend to lock in the Keep unless catboi objects.

[Faker]

From your perspective, do you mind walking me through why that makes sense to you as town one more time?

[Coral]

Wall: domna, Chara, Isis
Gate: Tempest, skitter, Coral
Keep: Faker, catboi, absinthe

is my preference in a vacuum. Arguably Tempest/absinthe should swap but I do like the idea of clear-Tammy. I think that's a very favorable Gate regardless of who the scum player/clear would be.

Agreed. I think we're likely walking into a 1-1-1 but I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. All of these groups feel solvable to me, and I don't think there's a swap that would change that too dramatically.

[absinthe]

From your perspective, do you mind walking me through why that makes sense to you as town one more time?

Is this to me? There's a much better chance I actually help town in the Keep than in the other two minigames given the current lay of the land. We've got about 2 days left so not much time for the lay of the land to shift.

I don't think catboi has expressed an actual opinion about me going to the keep, which is why I'm still holding off.

[Faker]

cat is probably regretting his choices right about now and hoping someone else locks Keep or gives him an out

[absinthe]

Also, if that was to me, what did you expect to learn from my answer?

[Faker]

It was to you. I'm not entirely sure why you're leaning into a game where I'm tunneling you. We're two people you'd love to read correctly but I'm not really sold you have confidence to nail either.

Pairing you with Tammy seems like it would more sense from town-absinthe: more history, more confidence on both sides.

[demona]

If there's contention over who wants Wall v. Gate I'm comfortable just letting demona choose who she wants to bring TBH.

Maybe I'll see the answer and start throwing ????s at her but we'll see.

less informative for me to choose i think

but!

yeah i think you’d probably ???? my choices

like i would still steal catboi if given the power to do so if there wasn’t a swap

but trying to account for the swap makes everything messy

[skitter30]

If we're putting me at gate can it at least not be with 2 scumreads of mine? I think i get ic'd there and that won't be a fun time for me
I'm at a thing, will respond to the above later

[absinthe]

partly because of the challenge/fun aspect. partly because I got tired of arguing against it. partly because I was cheated out of the Keep in my first game.

I still like the idea of being in the same minigame with Tammy regardless of which one. with enough time we've always found each other in the past. there's a dearth of either of us being scum in those games, though. Tammy may get pissed at me for pointing that out again.

[Faker]

Yeah cat is definitely a player I'd rather have in the Keep, I'm selfish and trust no one but myself to avoid getting snowed by that motherfucker. It's one thing if I'm there in endgame with him but it's another if I exit early and leave him unsupervised.

hm

it is strange to me

how accepting of reads on you you are right now

like your general preference for keep and the other iteration you played would indicate that you could just fix that by posting if the reads were coming from other towns

i guess like

you seem not very skeptical of it being a coordinated mafia effort to neutralize you

which i feel like, on paper would be possible and if i knew i was town in your position i would be very

!!!

ya know?

but maybe it is not a fair thought because

you are not me

and i am not you

I didn’t get pissed at you.

(I’m playing video games, but I’m checking in on and off)

[Faker]

what's the vidya

i'm considering trying to get through okami for the 6th or 7th time, also considering buying Three Hopes or Tunic

[Tempest]

Crisis core.

Also I scored GameCube princess twilight last week at a used shop, so now I don’t need to figure out the emulator. Kinda going back and forth between the two.
