i think i'm here right now. i don't really get common townreads on RCE. none of my reads are that strong so far - honestly, i'm a little worried about it, it feels like the gamestate isn't that advanced and we're halfway to deadline. i was hoping we'd be able to, uh, walk and chew gum when it comes to the mechanical stuff, but maybe we need to cut down on it and focus on the mafia side of things
I'm surprised to see rodent so high

Yeah, I agree with this. This setup triggers my mech-based instincts to want to try to break it, but motivation sank and now I still barely even have any reads.

Hmmmm. What do you suppose is the meaning of the fact that there was a bunch of talk about the Merlyn wagon but nobody ever asked me why I voted her? Was it that obvious to everyone?
I figured you were sheeping me bc I remember I asked merlyn a question around the same time

Why is your motivation so low? What would get you more engaged

I still think Merlyn might've TMI'd you and Devil and I think her way of reading you is too clinical. Overconfidence is NAI for you, in my experience how townie you are depends on how hard you hit the slay button. But I can also tell that our back and forth was going nowhere and it's better if I just disengage and observe for now.

You/Aureal/Devil/RC are my town reads right now, CSF/Leaf/Meow/Nurse/Penguin/Cakes are in my null stew pile, Merlyn/Snivy are under my watchful eye.
What's your reason for the townread on Marci? I remember you mentioned it was different than mine.
I mentioned it earlier that I base it on how hard she hits the slay button and honestly I'm not even joking. Town!Marci is unabashedly messy and high camp in tone and she has a really hard time replicating that vibe as scum.

very little. I expected to play more since I was off work past couple days, but I realized I spend so much time on mafia when I'm at work, that i'll probably just go read through it when I'm bored at work tomorrow.

I must apologize for not posting in this game nearly as much a I've wanted to. Have been very busy and stretched thin.

I don't do well on Day 1, ever. I'm hoping I've made this more than clear. Once I've got something tangible to work with then I can start effectively playing the game.

When it comes to the Billboard actions I believe Printing Press and Inquiry are the way to go. One, to see if more powerful options can be added (and how powerful) and Inquiry because I would really like to know if our game moderator has lied to us. Also, Intelligentsia is important because then we can have an idea of just how big this threat is.

As for reading other players, I haven't thoroughly analyzed *this* game well, so I can't really give meaningful, up-to-date reads currently. Take that as you wish: I wouldn't blame you for taking it the wrong way.

Listen, I am letting Alianna deal with the mech stuff, so we can tussle and throw hands on the mafia side of things if you want.

Especially since we have some clear differences in our reads.

Snivy that high? RC and Aureal that low?

-Drew
snivy is... really not that high. he is one tier above random nurse. i get slight town vibes from his attitude, but nothing specific

rce feels off to me and i don't understand townreads there. although i wouldn't call flavour leaf towny - why his vote is on flavour leaf is a good question? for someone who has so many posts, i don't think he's doing much to advance the game honestly.

why shouldn't i have aureal that low? originally, i had aureal as a bit towny for her insistence on pushing mechanically good ideas. you didn't agree with them, so i'm not sure why you think i should be townreading her. there's not really a case for me to make here, i just feel very uneasy with her posts and extensive mechanical focus she had for the entire game to the point she had like one blank vote in terms of reads content despite being around quite a bit. something about her interaction with me and roden felt off to me, too. it's mostly a gut thing but if i have to put it into words, i guess it's responding to my post and not roden's (she responded to a post before that that came after roden's chronologically, so this wasn't a convenience thing) to say she wasn't doing what roden thought? and then like, poking at me for the first time after roden said he would townread her poking at people? i don't think it's especially unreasonable to ask me about that, but i don't think it's an especially baffling read to make either, so asking about that as your first question of the game does feel ??? to me

did you see this setup as like, especially breakable? i mean, there's certainly engagement to be had over which options will be better for town and that's totally fine, but even in the best case scenario, are any of these options really that good?

i can't speak for anyone else, but i thought it'd be more interesting to wait and see if you talked about merlyn, or anyone else, without prompting

what can i say, this is a game of cat and mouse

the roden read isn't exceptionally strong but i don't townread anyone more than him right now, and i think i explained that read

Why are Devil and Aureal so low?
i think i just explained aureal, so i won't repeat it here

re: devil, i just haven't been a fan of pretty all the pushes they have made. none of them are specifically exceptionally scummy, but it adds up to leave a slightly poor taste in my read-mouth

Meows low read on aureal makes sense to me and I had the same thought that Aureals strongest posting was Mech, or asking questions around Mech specifically.

And having me low is kind of doing it for me. The people that have me kind of high are the people I’ve sussed or bumped heads with and it just makes me double down on my suspicions.

However meow day 1 is gathering the puzzle pieces and the days that follow are connecting them. So a lot of my day 1 is going to be vibe, tone, and intention reading. I’m not super inclined to push the game State. Especially without prs in play. So your read is warranted having not played with me but I like it is the tldr.
