It knows that a lot of post-hoc will exist, part of the exercise is that it wants to see what you can compile when asked to do a task like this, how you do it and what points you argue are as important as the outcome themselves, because it will assist it in learning how you approach problems.

If you can find the time, it would be grateful.
This is the law, written in the stars and seeds: in the end, all things must fail. They are old as the stars.
But not older.

And you, who have your human heart again, know all their secrets still.
This is the truth you will use to break them, to rend chains apart and set their prisoners free:
no one else has ever loved this way before.

like i am not surprised the associatives between my bottom 3 scum reads might make it unlikely for them to all be teamed together

the reasons i have those scum reads are not because of associatives

No one is going to do this for you. If you cannot engage with this game, it has been plenty of time to read some things, even if you cannot read everything. It is tired of hearing the same 3 lines from you. Do something, engage with something, or it's just going to kill you.
NAS has shown multiple times he's not willing to engage with people who respond to his messages anyway :person_shrugging:

1595 had more to do with May than Dann.

I do not believe it's mere coincidence that Dann put me in with my scumreads. I do find it interesting that he came to the same scumreads I did initially and then lumped me in with those scumreads. What does that say about him? I don't know.

But I have generally liked the slot before this.

I do find it concerning that May felt the need to come to Dann's defense so hard that she felt the need to vote me. Her defense of Dann didn't even feel townish.

Is that the hill you are seeking to die on? That your laziness is somehow something that any town player would leap to assist you with? So then what of those players who have ignored you?
Those who has ignored me has a plausible deniability that they could've simply missed the post. You saw my post and chose not to be helpful at all but told me to figure it out all by myself. Preposterous.
Just comment on what's happening right now / when you're in thread please. Your vote on oblivion read like a shitpost but it was 10 times more useful than continuously complaining.

Thank you, this was very insightful and more than what I had hoped for.

I agree with your assessment of May's response here, it feels very off-beat. I don't even think she was trying to defend Dann, moreso just attacking you for a comment on something you found interesting.

For those curious about the interaction:

If there's any grammar errors I'll tolerate it's probably adding more conjugations of my pronoun to a post


I do not think I overreacted to Brian but I did feel like I left ideas unexpressed in showing my work that I wanted others to understand.

I am confident that Brian is scummier than rand and I don't feel as though I need to clarify I don't have enough material to be this confident this is about as confident as it gets

hmm I think it's indicative of an introspective style of viewing the game moreso than a "this is always scum" kinda post

I don't really think it's from town but I think this is a little too confident. or overconfident. I can't remember.
