Open 674: Duck Duck Goose [Game Over]

[Creature]

Keep town solid, scum likes town in gas state. Liquid state is also acceptable for them.

im not doing what you think im doing

also im certain youre town!creature now

[Creature]

Ain't I faking everything?

[cassielle]

naw, youre a slave to your own nature man

do me a favor and answer my question back there for giggleshits

and pay attention to the answers that come down the pipe, youll know what youre looking for when you see it

[Creature]

Okay, let me see what are your questions.

[cassielle]

just the one about scum you might be pocketed by and why

dont think too hard about them actually being scum afterwards, i have ulterior motives i will share when i have a large enough dataset here

[Creature]

Who's scum pocketing me?

[doomfeathers]

Just one? I pick Aubrey, then. (Not that he's most likely to be scum, but that he's the most likely to both be scum and successfully pocket me.)

[cassielle]

Who's scum pocketing me?

thats the answer i want

your answer, not mine

im not trying to convince you of anything, i just want you to give me information to work with

[Creature]

I don't really see who's pocketing me because I don't townread someone who townreads me.

It's like taking a look at someone's ISO and seeing some posts:
"Hmm"
"Looks good"
"Town?"
"Looks town"
"Yeah town"
"Yeah pretty town"

[Creature]

So far hapahauli is scummier from my townreaders. I'm not sure on who are all my townreaders.

[doomfeathers]

Could someone define "pocketing"? I'm not sure I have the right definition in mind.

[Creature]

Saving someone from a mislynch just to mislynch them later in the game.

[Creature]

If you can tell the difference between town defending their townread and scum pocketing, then you're either scum or a wizard.

[cassielle]

ill accept that for now creature, but i still want more people to talk about it from their pov

also if you townread me, i townread you atm so that "could" be pocketing
i dont think it is, at all, obviously, but yes, it could be

the real test is "why am i townreading this person? is there a reason for this townread?"

if, when it boils down to it, it feels like theyre following a checklist of things you said townpinged you in the thread as you say them, you are probably being pocketed (and it is unlikely to be town)

scum are rarely that obvious, but they flub it every so often

[doomfeathers]

(Never mind. I thought you were referencing your previous post.)

[havingfitz]

v/LA till Monday morning. I'll post if I get the chance.

[cassielle]

i like this votecount. this is a MUCH BETTER state of affairs for town

look: we have 1 (1!!!!!) vanity wagon
when i joined there were /6/

we can afford to poke at townblocks a little bit creature. town is listening to one another
people are even willing to work with their scumreads a bit: this is a Good Thing and keeping the town watchful is also a Good Thing.

also the number of wagons and wagon makeup tells me that no scum are on kop's wagon. anyone have any theories as to why that is?
keep it coming with the talk about whos pocketing you. dont need to start scumreading them or w/e, in fact id rather you didnt, i just want to see who each of you pick and why

[havingfitz]

UNVOTE: while v/LA

I feel 5 or 6 pages behind just from this morning and I see hapa posted a shitload. I want to catch up and not leave my vote on him on the weekend so I can catch up on his content and others.

[hapahauli]

Eh. Reading through Cassy's filter, it seems like I was just tilted and misrepping her really hard. I'm going to mulligan on that read and try again tomorrow.

@HAPA

what if i tell you you have been pocketed and one or two of your townreads are scum

who do you pick

If you're asking which of my town-reads have the greatest margin for error, probably Creature/Fitz/Kop. But you're asking me to discredit my own analysis of the game which doesn't really accomplish much for me or anyone else.

[havingfitz]

probably Creature/Fitz/Kop.

When did I become a townread for you? And was Creature a tr for you? ffs.....

[doomfeathers]

also the number of wagons and wagon makeup tells me that no scum are on kop's wagon. anyone have any theories as to why that is?

I'd say because Kop is scum, but you're not scumreading him, so that's not going to be your answer. Are they pocketing him?

im not asking that

im looking for something, see my prior post

no. i honestly dont have a clue why it would be the case and it doesnt sit right -- the scum would want to be on the top two wagons, but i dont see scum being in (doomfeathers,Aubrey,Hawk)

i do see scum being in (rels,hapa) and i am absolutely 100% certain theres scum in hapa's wagon

so something is strange. i would be willing to push kops wagon if hapa makes a good (really good) showing in the near future. the "tipping point" will certainly be instructive
