going from healing my strongest scumread to my third strongest scumread is a small victory, but a victory nonetheless.

Hot take it is a mistake to try to guess the exact team at this point
Fairly strongly agreed, I think my solve isn't experience/Aventurine as a team so much as 1-2 scum in experience/Aventurine and I wonder who im townreading incorrectly.
that's what's baffling me bc u seem to not be actually concerned with finding out all that much.

I feel like I should reply to this but idk how so just gonna say:
For the record I think tired is very likely to be town because while I stand by everything I said previously, I think their play here is necessarily a charismatic one and I think playing anti-charismatically against my very loud replace in is a fairly strong indicator of a town mindset
unless tired is scum with someone else who is widely townread in which case 2 scum in the coalition isn't even a bad outcome!! but I think it's town indicative
I have a small window before work to skim and a small window after work to really sit down and put some thought into the game. Unfortunately I haven't felt like playing Mafia after work this week but I'll try to at least sheep someone else's list
I mean if there is large paranoia of me then i'm okay not being on the coalition but i do think i can assuage the paranoia in principle. i'm just sort of having trouble getting back into the game since the lull tbh.
I don't think black is scum, i do agree that her posting fell off in some way but i remember feeling like there were consistent townpings at the right time that i don't think that falling off is particularly likely to be meaningful
that's what i also thought but i think the rest of her posting is town enough to just ignore that.

i genuinely have no idea what u just said here with my play being both charismatic and anti-charismatic. however i can agree that it's town indicative for me to approach your slot as well as implosion's in a stubbornly obstinate manner (i think that's what u meant by playing anti-charimatically). would u be amenable to unhealing implosion and healing urself and calling it a day? or even healing black if u deign to townread her.

maybe this is paranoid but I feel like implosion is finding too much comfort zone in a vanity town read on umlautslot.
At a certain point it's more organic to be relieved that maybe you got more info about something that was maybe a mistake on a low volume positive content slot (this is kind of how I feel about cutter B becomes tired person).
A mafia!implosion knows that the side project has become classified as an earnest thing and all focus becomes good focus
I don't really see how I've gotten "maybe more info" about anything. I've gotten no info on that slot since I declared it hard town on like page four because I don't really consider lurking to be alignment-indicative. I consider it to be an annoying information vacuum. Most games I play, I play through PoE, and it's pretty normal for me to get annoyed at slots that I feel aren't doing anything to allow me to possibly take them out of the PoE. The fact that I hard townread the slot earlier is just icing on that.
I have more to say on the game and stuff but in a meeting atm
It's written in past tense because it's hypotheticals and the verb tense for a hypothetical doesn't matter. I thought the parallelization to tired person's rep-in would make that easier to parse
You made a post specifically hoping that in the future, Umlaut's replacement comes in and posts in a townish way. I would expect you to equally hope the new player open wolfs if you're town.
Do you see how at least on the surface this would look like a lack of curiosity to me? Like yes it's null but it's not "gee I wonder why he dropped of the earth was I right?" it's " gee I hope I get some stuff I can use to maintain my platform of my hard umlaut townread [so I can look like I'm doing things again]"
Repping out isnt exactly AI but when the repout is the reason you can't see four more "I'm having trouble getting a foothold on this game, can someone spoon-feed me that May is scum?" some essays that weren't turned in needed to be graded F ykno

I might just not be understanding the point but like, my feeling on that Umlaut read at the time I acquired it was "this is something I want to be obstinate on". Like, I don't remember exactly when but I think some recent game I was thinking about the idea of reading people off of single posts/things and relying on a particularly impactful single thing to rely on for the rest of the game, but like, it isn't *literally* that, obviously. So I felt pretty obstinate about it for a long time and then I guess that obstinance turned into my feelings toward the slot aggravatingly fizzling out. I don't really know why i would have wanted the new player to open wolf, i'm not sure what you mean by that, like, the comment i made about wanting experience to be town was sort of a mostly-joke about protecting my own ego, and i think that me believing someone to be open wolfing is something i can think of like twice off the top of my head i've ever felt that way in my history on this site and one of them was wrong
The point is that you should be equally interested in positive and negative info about the slot
Did you genuinely misunderstand that the open wolf hyperbole was shorthand/rhetorical device
that's what i also thought but i think the rest of her posting is town enough to just ignore that.

ur saying u don't understand my point then restating my point in ur own words which further PROVES my POINT AAAHHH
sure whatever, I'm about to fly, my preference there is implosion >>> myself > black I think
increasing the urgency of sorting black feels stressful if that's a failing coalition
including myself increases odds of a successful coalition fmpov significantly
I think implosion is town and don't see him getting harder to read if the coalition fails
