New Year Dance Party [afterparty]

[Shirou]

We only have 3 days and half though until deadline. Can we wrap up this day tomorrow or so?

[fireisredsir]

i think scum are gonna kill ydra/fire pair tonight.
I woner how good that prediction will hold up considering my past predictions.

that would be somewhat dumb of them

only because ur saying ur going to leave before ELO.
99% certain ur a town pair.

true. hey scum btw i was kidding im never leaving ydra we're in it to the end you'll have to nk us if you want to get rid of us

[fireisredsir]

probably tonight tbh

[Firebringer]

u got to be more convincing when u say it fire
got to get down on one knee and declare ur eternal love for ydra

[fireisredsir]

ydrasse, my dancing partner so sublime
i can't express just what you mean to me
ill love you madly til the end of time
and how you set my caged heart flying free

our time together has been short but sweet
with kpop shared and loving vows exchanged
in only days you've swept me off my feet
each night im grateful our dance was arranged

with that in mind id really like to say
that you have fully captured all my heart
a nightkill truly is the only way
our souls will ever become torn apart

i am not pocketed, i'm not naive
and scum should know that i will never leave

[Shirou]

Huh?

TSQ played with Cakez more than once?

Okay now this game just got weirder because I was about to say I was getting more confident that Fire was scum rather than MariaR but now I don't know anymore because this is certainly weird?

[Shirou]

Nvm, it was just a single game, maybe they forgot about it:

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=87795&hilit=Cakez

[Shirou]

The pressure is making me get a bit of cold feet and self-doubt but I guess I'll keep going because at this point there's no turning back even if I think Fireb is more likely.

Goodnight, hope to wake up to a flip if I'm lucky?

[Firebringer]

.hope its a t/t flip i want shirou more sus of me.

[Meuh]

No flip yet

[Meuh]

I want DEATH

[Gimli]

good morning.

I'll try to read a few pages now

[Gimli]

please dont be someone who sucks please dont be someone who sucks

Famous last words

I vibe with you so much, too bad you're probably scum

[Gimli]

Down to yeet ari.

Also, this is wack af.

Unless you think ari was bussing cakez, which what is the basis for believing that?

Ari was giving reasoning to think enchant was town and was fairly consistently advocating that cakez be the person left out of the dance.

I'm quoting this cause it gives me pause and I think it's AI for both TSQ and VPB, maybe it points to both being town

[Gimli]

fireisred and midwaybear are ridiculously towny in those pages I'm reading

[Gimli]

Down to yeet ari.

Also, this is wack af.

Ari was giving reasoning to think enchant was town and was fairly consistently advocating that cakez be the person left out of the dance.

ari's posting towards cakez felt similar to the way she busses and idk why you would expect her to be unlikely to bus cakez here

That's a lame ass bus if it is. I wouldn't give anyone actual long term credit if it that was how they did a bus.

Just seems like a half assed play if so, which isn't really my impression of ari. I think when she buses, she'd have a reason and do it more forcefully rather than making up reasons to town read the other person.

another important interaction

[Gimli]

VPB post cakez flip feels a little scummy actually

[Gimli]

methinks thou doth protest too much

ok and see this is what im saying you're still not trying to sort here

You're far enough down on my list, I don't feel a strong desire to quiz you. If irrel flips scum, you look much worse, and he's definitely my priority flip. Given how little actual scumhunting happened last phase, I'm not really trying to hero solve right now.

If you're so eager for me to town read you, then do something useful and find a scum. Whatever this is that you're doing isn't helping me read you.

like this almost feels robotic and he isn't melding with anyone else in those pages, especially wrt what I believe is not a hard take that ari could be bussing cakez (something TSQ picked up before the flip - that ari was scummy in those interactions - and fireisred had to explain to VPB). if I was scum I'd be defending Ari there, as well.

[Gimli]

it's about the tinfoil being the first thing that came to your minds

nah I think most tinfoils probably come from town
because if one of me/enchant is scum, it's the scumteam's goal to set us up super-town for how the end of the pre-dance went
so it doesn't make sense for another scum to just start questioning it immediately imo.
In the case that me/enchant t/t, it's just a wack take that i don't think scum generally care to make (cuz they're informed we're t/t and have no reason to suspect that others don't)

midway is full of good posts, this is just another one

[Gimli]

TSQ, we didn't interact but I miss you

[Gimli]

i don't expect you to be townreading me. im literally saying the opposite, that i expect you to be pushing me harder as your scumread. i expect you to take interest in my read on you and the reasoning for it. i expect you to not back away from an engagement with someone in your poe. instead you just keep throwing one liners and then backing off

Yes, sometimes I throw one liners at people I find mildly scummy to see what they do in response.

What is the engagement we're having exactly? You have a very bad read on irrel without much explanation. I would like to flip there first, and if he flips scum I will use that as leverage to flip you next possibly.

You seem to be making a point that I should be going through your ISO and quizzing you about your positions, and because I am not doing that right this minute, I am therefore being shady...but you haven't exactly explained why I should be doing that with great immediacy when you are not who I think looks worst off a cakez flip. That's the part that matters most, but you seem to be ignoring that for whatever reason.

i don't think you should be going through my ISO and quizzing me on my positions. i think that you should actually be reading the posts that i have been making right now and digging into them especially if they ping you as scummy. your first reaction to me suddenly pivoting from saying std/irrel is a good flip to saying that i want to flip you more is for you to say "chainsawing lol", and thats it? no question about where that came from? no attempt to catch me in a scum overreach? no investigating if the read even makes sense? no light comes on about seeing a scumteam trying to shut you out? instead you just go back to where you were before where im in the poe and not a priority sort for you.

it feels like you're going down a checklist of what you're supposed to be doing and not actually solving the game and then when you get called out for it you point at the list and say "but look! it says LIST OF TOWN THINGS TO DO at the top and im doing them! i must be town!"

some of you guys are really good at this game

[Gimli]

what if furtive is just clumsy

[Gimli]

VOTE: Baltar

[Gimli]

I really need to get into this PT with Owen.

are you gunna do what I'm going to do and only use your PT to flirt with your dance partner?

Given ausuka is probably scum, I can see this happening.

idk, I really liked how ausuka picked up on what I was just picking up on with meuh, didn't feel like she was trying to pocket me but could be wrong.

watch out, the tone police are out.

what about that is town?

How does it jive with your previously stated position that scum are more likely to diffuse and back down from an argument?

It's unclear to me if your thoughts are actually this inconsistent as town or if you're just scum?

These are two times that Shea would have typically yelled at me for being an asshole. Instead, it's like talking to waiter at a restaurant who knows he needs to be nice to get a tip.

I was going to wait a bit longer to see if this kept up, but given he wanted to start coming after me when I hinted at suspicion there, I think we should just put it out there.

I hope you're scum because this would be hilariously bad of you if you're town.
