Open 873: PYP: Anime Music & Memes - Game Over!

[Lukewarm]

@Notty, you asked for reasons behind the STD wagon, and so I wrote out my reasons.

1141

Please respond

[Lukewarm]

I'm also a little confused if they got the chronology wrong.

What chronology are you saying they may have gotten wrong?

[Bell]

Oh, even though they heavily implied they meta'd them I missed it on first impression and so I thought the chronology was wrong where they never implied it. In other words,
never mind. The rest stands tho. I had already recalled that but my fingers typed on their own probably because I'm just pretty exhausted at this point due to work and school I guess.
Sort of.

[Bell]

Q is STD happier as scum or town?

[Save The Dragons]

Like I'm not sure you understand I noticed something early on but didn't realize it was suspicious until he did the thing more

Also I didn't engage with you because it was a tmi read on you so what you said didn't matter to me

[Lukewarm]

In-between those two posts, I immediately read the setup to understand why it was being questioned of me. I didn't backtrack.I just didn't want to publicly admit that I had not read the setup until after the game had actually started, because that reflects poorly on me.

Spoiler:

This... is I guess a plausible explanation for what I originally did not like, but also like... is a perfect thread the needle to avoid what I originally did not like about those posts. This does not really make me feel a lot better about the feeling that he was shifting his answers to avoid the thing that people were questioning him on, but also... There is not really a way to prove when he read the rules, so I don't think that there is much more to gain from this line of questioning.

[Lukewarm]

Also I didn't engage with you because it was a tmi read on you so what you said didn't matter to me

Then why did you start it out by asking me anything at all, if the answers did not matter to you?

[Save The Dragons]

I was trying to get you to understand my point

[Bell]

Hey, STD you can answer this question. Coming from you would be the most reliable, probably.

[Save The Dragons]

I prefer town

[Lukewarm]

Lukewarm: There's some interesting phrasing in their early posts (calling leading wagons "trendy") that as much as they aren't scum tells and could fairly well just be how they phrase their statements, I would associate with being purposefully distant from town wagons. They're also suspecting me because of the whole number thing, and I'd like to get their attention and have a good conversation with them about other things in the game and putting someone in scumreads is always a good way to do that!

Is there a reason why your statement that you want to talk to me about things in this game not come with actually anything that you wanted to talk to me about? lol

[Taly]

There's at least 2 posts that need thoughtful replies, I'll try to get to it tomorrow but I got classes all day

I also just broke through a dissociative barrier within our system that culminated Sunday morning

I'm starting to hear my headmates again So we can work on cohesion

Re Taly- I actually think they're town in part because their contributions despite being thorough barely register with me. I may have unwarranted confidence after picking them out in Lost when basically no one else did, idk

I might not be the best person to ask, because I think that I have a pretty heavy playstyle clash with her. But something that I noticed as different between this game and Lost is that in Lost she seemed focused specific people, Im thinking in particular Johnny, Nancy, and Bell, which I think ended up being like "her pocket target #1" "her pocket target #2" and "the person she decided she needed to convince not to scum read her any more"

I don't actually think that she reached out to talk to me for the first time that game, until after I voted her, and that triggered it. Where as this game, she is reaching out in more directions.

gth, I would call her town just for the differences between this game and lost feels like it could be the difference in her trying to survive as scum vs feeling out the player list as town

Yes, that was something I picked up on in that game. I'm unsure whether it would be replicated here anyway as it seemed like a familiarity thing and this playerlist is not that one.

[Taly]

I'll clarify that I am familiar with almost everyone in this plist, just not all in a mafia context, more of just seeing that user in the span of 9 years being on here and knowing this is a competent group

I'm still waiting for the scum motivation of getting two people so disenchanted with me they are now voting me

Cuz I obviously didn't do it to appear town lol

[Lukewarm]

kingtroll to that point was behind in the game, so, like, of course he didn't do much. but i think since catching up he's been fine and tbh i buy the story about not reading/paying attention to the setup as a slightly disinvested townie, doesn't strike me as the type of player to fake something like that

Peta, what part of Kingtroll's catch up did you actually like? I finally got to that part of the game, and I feel like all of his reads were pretty toothless and generally vague.

Maybe I misinterpreted your comment to me, but I kinda of got there ready to find the thing that made you think that they were town, and just did not really find anything to fill that expectation

[Cephrir]

I feel like there's a distinct possibility that kingtroll is scum but we all want them to not be scum so we are engaged in mutually pretending they are town

[Taly]

I notice people feel comfortable with meta on us, but I want to caution

This is the first game I'm consciously and actively letting headmates gamesolve alongside me

And I have no completed games since realizing my plurality.

I've had a few psychological transformations in less than a year that I don't understand well.

Treat us like a hydra. Taly, Gaia, Vicky, and Yume are different people.

What? Obviously you did not expect this push back, regardless of your alignment.

The scum motivation would have been to try and build up momentum on me, given unwnds strong confident scum read there, and a *lot* of players having me in the lower portion of their reads. You added yourself and convinced ceph to join my wagon, making it an actual wagon.

I find it hard to believe that anyone would have expected unwnd of all people to start scum reading you in response to agreeing with him that I was scum.

[notscience]

Popping in to say I’ll reply to you in a bit luke and I’ve finally townread a ceph post

[marcistar]
