I think one of the things that pinged me about mr fire is red is that his post about people's alignments felt like it was hedging in a way that was kinda self conscious. Like you're giving reads on page 5 I feel like town knows that's ridiculous and just sort of says shit but fires is all hedgy. Shea COULD be town. Sheep COULD not be.

And also like kinda vaguely well poisony for somewhat similar reasons "hellbooks i think may have thought up most of these posts before she even got her role pm" etc.

It's kind of similar to the posting in the last game and feels sorta distinct from his town game that I've observed in that regard.

i always hedge and im always self conscious

my page 5 reads are also better than my page 100 reads tbh so i don't really agree that making them is ridiculous

the hellbooks comment was to say that her posting was probably not alignment readable to me so far

fire if neither of us make it into the coalition i am going to literally generate such an overflowing excess of private inside jokes that all the coalition folks are gonna be sit there in silence and be like "oh..... turns out this wasnt the fun car." they're all gonna be too awks to pass the aux. and i bet they wont even be playing dethy in there.

why to me her posts are kind of alarming but its a little bit hard for me to say because most of the times I've observed her town game its been through the lens of her playing on some alt gimmick account. I'm used to a more solving mindset early on even when its like idk filtered through the lens of her saying things like "the moon whispers to the trees that shea could be fearing the evils ones" or w/e

idk i liked

I think isis is extremely capable of making that post as scum and it worries me that tris doesn't think she is and it double worries me that you're chiming in to support that side of the argument.

i think that isis could talk about how she's scum as scum and you could talk about how you're scum as scum but the two of you would do it in different ways and for very different reasons

maybe those differences are unimportant though

what if we all decide on a coalition as usual but don't actually submit it, and then we let the people in the coalition vote amongst themselves for one player who they think shouldn't be in the coalition, and one they think should be, and we make the swap. or alternatively they vote for no swap

i think this idea that i spent 30 seconds thinking about is optimal, actually

except it's better if the mafia don't know about it. so don't tell them we're doing it until it happens and then it'll be this big surprise and we'll catch them because they'll be the people going "huh???"
