I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”~M-

I actually prefer Enchant to T3 right now too.
HURT: T3

Update post
175 (Prohawk) - I liked this post for several minutes because it seemed to show some effort at sorting, but after a few rereads I realized the mechanism fundamentally doesn't make any sense. We're going to sort people based on a characteristic (self-healing) that we all know is just as useful for any alignment because "scum might do it to look town because town would do it"? Hogwash.
Enchant comes out looking better in the followup exchange than Prohawk does.
184 (Enchant) - I don't understand what "mafia trying to follow waves" means and I don't see any reason to think Esther is maf.
198 (Esther) - strong agree that whether or not Enchant's posts are ultimately useful content-wise they demonstrate a town perspective.
199 (Esther) and the followup theorycrafting discussion: I think assuming scum are so doctrinaire in their planning as to even have a significant preference for one vs. two in coalition is probably a mistake. Speaking for myself, as scum I am generally allergic to plans more complex than "look town, shoot the biggest threats, frame a few townies, win the game" and the only thought I would give to who 'should' be in the coalition is that at least one of me or my hypothetical buddy would have to be so we don't insta-lose. The only sense in which "it's more likely only one scum is in the coalition," in my opinion, is that assuming town do better than random at sorting, a person chosen for the coalition is therefore more likely to be town.
209 (T3) - You don't think scum!Prohawk doeswhat,exactly?
214 (Looker) - makes sense to me even if it's not exactly how I'm using my heals; making an effort to be transparent is good.
Actually saying "No, I'm just sheeping you" would have been fine, I don't think recognizing a good (or even just okay) case and following it without adding your own thoughts is a bad thing necessarily. I was more just trying to see where your vote was coming from at all.In post 216, Looker wrote:
I like the analysis in Post 102 moreso than the HEAL, which is ironic because you thought I was sheeping you on Andante so you probably feel some type of way about blind faith as well. You're another player I'm comfortable being wrong about. I'd rather be wrong about a scum that put in the effort (like Ame in Purgatory), than one who coasts with no content and wins with no effort. Hoping you're not scum, though.
228 (Esther) - gives me town vibes I can't explain.
229 (MBot) - don't like it. Too much self-justification: "I'm very obviously a newb and still getting used to figuring out reads..." + "Maybe I get triggered by early 'I'm town.' statements..." looks like MBot cares a lot to have her posts beacceptable. Worrying too much about low content from a player like T3 also seems like easy commentary to make, which is okay in itself but doesn't help the post overall.
This post merits a revisit if ProHawk turns out to be scum (I'm not totally sold on this but it's a possibility for me), making a note of it for now.In post 235, ProHawk wrote:
MBot, or possibly Andante.In post 232, Looker wrote:
Who do you suggest I replace them with?In post 225, ProHawk wrote: Can we chat about Enchant tho?
I could compromise with you on Galron
243 (Esther) - interested in hearing why ProHawk isn't a plausible Andante buddy but it's not a priority today.
251 (Esther) - this is good townposting. I think Esther's thoughts on ProHawk are too... nuanced? don't have the right word... to come from a scum-faking-it perspective. And I think making this pointso everyone will see itand not just to cast aspersion on ProHawk is just not the sort of motive that immediately comes to mind if you are making things up. I am very comfortable calling Esther my top townread.
Stopping here for now, this post is getting very long. I think my coalition as it stands is the right one. Ask me questions if you have 'em.“There are two kinds of people in this world: those who say, ‘There are two kinds of people in this world: those who say there are two kinds of people in this world,and the other kind,’ and those whodon’tsay. Well, then there’s me.” — J.R. “Bob” Dobbs-

My current coalition is {Umlaut, Looker, Enchant, mc esther, Galron}. Could sub T3 for someone on this list (most likely Galron, I guess? idk) if that's the way things go. Not interested in coalitioning any of Prohawk, MBot, or Andante.
Esther is absolutely bleeding town and should be in any coalition worth the name.“There are two kinds of people in this world: those who say, ‘There are two kinds of people in this world: those who say there are two kinds of people in this world,and the other kind,’ and those whodon’tsay. Well, then there’s me.” — J.R. “Bob” Dobbs-

Then proceeds to create a coalition without themselves in it.In post 207, Enchant wrote:I don't care. I am town, and thus belong in coalition. You can't prove me otherwise.
My self-vote makes sense. Because i am town.-

So is self-healing good or badIn post 175, ProHawk wrote:Galron - Middle of the Pack - I am concerned with the post implying that Looker may not be town because he isn't self-healing.
T3 - Hidden 1st Self-Heal
Enchant - 1st Self-Heal, Likely Maf
mc ester - 1st Self-Heal, Likely Maf
HEAL: Andante
HEAL: Umlaut
HEAL: MBot
HEAL: ProHawk
I'm good with me not being in the coalition should most people not town-read me which happens with much frequency.-

"Hissy fit" is kind of vague. Was the point Enchant was asserting "I'm not giving you town credit for saying you're willing to not be coalitioned"? And was your counterpoint anything along the lines of "Me not willing to be coalitioned is alignment-indicative/not alignment-indicative"? Sorry, I'm not the best with communication.
