My experience with Ircher is that they’re always weird. They were remarkably atonal at the beginning of the game though. The voice sounded the exact same throughout it was guileless, which isn’t Ircher. Who is full of guile.In post 1074, Dunnstral wrote:

If I was protected I wouldn’t die and I wouldn’t be able to choose to activate it and would just continue the game day.
If I’m killed and role blocked.

You should consult with TL before giving away that sort of information. They’re good at the role stuff. Let them benefit you by relying on their strengths.

I want to know what you think of Bell's play so fa in this game and where you lean on his alignment
If Pooky is wondering I’m just being patient while working through other people. but I don’t really think I’m going to be town reading Pooky this game. Without a mechanical clear. Pooky had off ramps but they never took them and I could have easily died, I don’t think they were genuinely trying to sort me. They’re laying the ground work for to take either position since they’re being careful to use more neutral wording in their recent posts but it take it as a second round of creating space to maneuver or act opportunistically.
Well, I’m not really curious on Maid or rather I think what they’ve already said about me in particular is fine and I’d rather hear about wherever their heart takes them on their scum hunting journey.
Ganksi’s catch up takes aren’t really my thing. Rather I really disagree with their reasons/logic for AI stuff. So instead I’m mostly looking at their positioning and it’s typical and like everyone else. I’m out of gas today so I don’t really want to engage with them while already looking at Laplace and waiting on a reply there.
I am watching/lurking. I’m just going to be in the background for this Dunn thing. I can’t be stirring all the pots. I reserve the right to intervene and change my mind.
In regards to tree stump being personally not fun for Drew, we’re all different. I think how rough this day phase has been for me explains neatly explains why it specifically appeals to me.
Also, I lied and crossed my fingers and my tree stump appears to be pretty much unblockable. I can decline to come back as a tree stump. But obviously, I’ll never do that.-

I’m not entirely sure what I would even talk to them about. They’re probably scum this game and they tend to just triple down when it comes to engaging with me.

I know you’re not interested in my takes Titus, but it find it pretty unlikely Lemon is scum.
They Rand released their role, seem pretty engaged in the game, have relatively novel takes and seem to be trying to be town clever and not scum clever. I can’t correct for their idiosyncrasies since it’s first game with them, but for me their angles and trajectories are all wrong for scum.-

I had assumed this was in jest rather than a serious accusation of Dunn being a perfidious capitalist.

They claimed all their roles and then said it was tactical when I asked them about it and told me not to pursue it and they’ll explain later. It doesn’t really make sense for them to do all this ground work when just being a blank slate is easier.-

Drew, while I am all for being pocketed and humiliated by a scum FB this game.
They’re very in…
Oh. Look at you you’re doing the thing.
I wish you didn’t spend the last 40 pages trying to say as little as possible tho.
What am I supposed to do with that.
Just chalk it up to life circumstances?
Why does everyone like you and want you to live but I associate town you with, what you’re doing now which no one would like but obviously if you always nice as scum people would be more suspicious of you earlier. you know what. I think it’s just because I don’t know you and I need more time to work through it.
Nah, your reads are being too reactive Bell, 40 pages of careful neutrality doesn’t go away. They hit their switch here. This is intentional.
But sigh Bell, intentionality or fitting into what you think is their town game and saying no, you see they were totally different before is hypocritical, look at your own game and how you’re kind of this weird split between garage nothing posting and brain dump analysis. Obviously it’s weird and people take note of it, but I’m town there, why can’t they be town here instead of.
Nope, back to increased viscosity. *takes out microscope* Hi Drew, don’t mind me. Just act natural.-

HST keeps trying to interpret naked votes. Usually by adding in their own diluted takes on the player.
I think there might be a means of figuring out their alignment based on this. Trying to put it together in my head.
Idle curiosity from an informed perspective and creating these kind of molded down takes as a thought exercise. To make an approach to another.
This probably won’t go anywhere but, motions. Ircher, why didn’t you vote Dunnstral when you made a case against them and instead made a naked vote on harmony? This resulted in a slow walk reveal when you’re obviously capable of providing your reasoning and your response to HST is worded/approached differently, more referential than your more direct reasoning elsewhere.-

I town read those posts by joyboy too. Mostly because they were tasting the air unprompted in a way, that from my perspective, is something that would cause the scum team anxiety. They appeared to be trying to settle on a read of me asking a question that points to them thinking it unlikely that I’d post so much if I were scum, but still being willing to check.
I don’t see how that post was scummy. It’s rather complex, but I don’t see the scum angle in asking?

In addition they seemed patient about it, and didn’t really try to make text out of their subtext. Though, I think that’s a personality thing but scum do want their efforts to pay off too
Then again. TL’s reads and statements this game are very out of the standard deviation range for me. I’m missing a TL primer. It’s like joining a game with Pooky in it and never having played with them before, there are so many pookisms that make zero sense unless you’ve played with them before-

Or that they were much more interested in hearing from other people, as people have certainly heard from me enough.

^ Let me alter that question. I didn't read your wording carefully enough.
How does "I was serious" from Dunnstral alter that post from being "good" to "weird." What is now weird about it?
Your initial posting, in response to Dunnstral, from one of my perspectives felt like you were rolling over in a pique of submission and conscientiousness.
I really want to do a temporal lich study group. Just to figure out with their TLisms look like and get an idea of how they think.

Dunnstral's meme posts are usually pretty demarcated, I can recall maybe one or two times when they were more subtle usually making a reference to something in the body of their paragraph. But it's not common to them.-

What gave you the impression that it wasn't meant to be taken seriously?
To note, when I asked if Dunnstral was serious I wasn't meaning "Is dunn joking?" but rather, "was dunn pressuring them in RVS? Where are they now on that read, have they fallen out of love with it, moved their attention to something else?" and other such lines of thought.-

You've heard the idea that jokes have a grain of truth to them right?
I have no idea if that's true, but I can make a throw away joke like,
"Dunn must be scum because their reasoning is too good and towns people are wrong and dumb a lot!" while internally wrestling with and analyzing whether I think Dunnstral is informed and taking a position that fits with that or if it's coming from a town perspective."
Ircher's perspective had persuasiveness to it, even though they aren't sold on it themselves because of a few games I've had with Dunstral where they've kind of been like they're being here as scum. Then again this interaction that Dunn probably doesn't remember has happened 4-5 times in other games, it's another rout interaction. Dunn does tend to end up defending me as either alignment, I've even prompted them to do it or cast suspicion at them when they stay on the sidelines. I do tend to make a joke because I'm usually being pressured by a bunch of people, they can't all be scum, so some of them must be town, so Dunn taking a different tack *must mean they're scum. I explained the joke. I spent time writing about this. What am I doing. Their alignment (maybe) could be discerned to how they go about reading people's alignments and what their reasoning is.-

ISO’d Hutao. Miniscule town lean.
Slightly more willing to reveal positioning in this game compared to the previous I reviewed just because.
But it’s not strong enough.-

Second game review. Still the same idea. town in other. More takes, a little less slow to get their feet wet. A little more circumspect/cautious cautious as scum on putting their foot in it.
Yeah. Extremely minor. Think this read is appropriate. Not enough.-

Yeah, I caught that. The last scum game flavorleaf explicitly stated that this was why the town lost.In post 1334, Hu Tao wrote: I use peoples meta for me against people all the time, tbf. So I wouldn't use that as an accurate read on me.
But I mean, it’s not exactly controversial that some would be slower to adopt reads as scum. But yeah, it’s the smallest of smol town leans, so.-

Are you done with your catch up Ganski?
I was interested in what your takes would be of the last 15ish pages.-

This is a player who has played mafia for 20 years. Does it make sense for them as town to have their entire interpretation of the game based on a single point of failure?In post 1348, PookyTheMagicalBear wrote: the way bell is treating dunnstral is exactly how caught scum treats a scumread townie who they want to go over but feel awkward about pushing
Pooky knows the pitfalls. They’re deliberately slow walking their progression on other players. Cabd and others have identified that scum pooky tends to be a bit lazier as scum. I think their play here fits that.
They know better. To note, I’ve had like 3 1v1’s with Pooky where we both just kept going back and forth and back and forth for hours. It stresses me out, it stresses Pooky out. Neither of us are very good at not having the last word.
The only reason I’m not going after Pooky is because I know it just takes a lot to get them killed and I don’t think this town really has the stomach to kill Pooky day one and I don’t see the appeal of accelerating my own elimination so that I can pursue Pooky as a stump. Though make no mistake. I am going to do that lol. I know Pooky is looking forward to that. That’s part of the reason I think Pooky isn’t spamming the game as much as they could to kill me earlier. Because they’d be discredited and a 1 for 1 trade isn’t optimal.-

I need mechanical and genuine pro-town actions to kill Pooky. That’s just not a thing I can do day 1.-

Oh and also the game would be a dumpster fire. I’ve listened to feedback on that. So I am not engaging Pooky how I usually would. I think the game is better for it.
Though this is happening much earlier than usual. I tend to avoid giving a read on Pooky and wait it out and decide later, usually after they’ve burned a bridge with another player that accuses them of being scum which gives me more confidence in my read of their alignment. Then it’s a monthlong campaign/slog.
I kind of expect these posts will set off an effort post by Pooky but that is okay.-

A 7.
My read of you is actually based mostly in that mess of posts of my interpretation of the first 10 pages of the game that Titus asked me to note bin.
A summary is that after worrying back and forth on whether you’re straight forward town or conformist scum, I landed on straight forward town.-
