TWG 191: Don't Trust Your Mentor - Game Thread

[DaBackpack]

hello everyone, posting from lunch break, how's everyone doing

[DaBackpack]

I was gonna do a posting gimmick where I roleplayed a character with images a la Xiz x Oglaf but it was too hard to set up

first person to guess the character gets a permanent town-read. lasts for all future games. supplies limited, act now

[storn42]

alright everyone, im heading out for now. idk if i'll be able to make it back for EoD but i'll try my best to.

Doesn't matter if it wasn't Garfield; it should have been

The mouse from your profile pic.

Also: Don't delay, act now.
supplies are ruuunning out.
Allow if you're still alive
six to eight years to arrive
And if you follow
there may be a tomorrow
But if the offer's shunned
Then you miiiight as well be walkin on the sun.

For that last set of text on your thing I suspect you were to roleplay a band member from the world famous band Smash Mouth.

Generic conversation starter motive I know but at the very least I'm trying somethin this game

Ok I should clarify: I don't care how new you are, or how little you know, i'm gonna treat you like everyone else in terms of call outs and such.

When I say it has no quotes, see this post? Should look more like this. It shows you're paying some form of attention.

It's just his inexperience showing, don't pay him any mind.

ok, so its just his inexperience (get fucked duskfall btw) but why is it inherently wolfy? would you scumread a new to new-ish player for having that stance?

I'm real poopy at reading MML so not really. Nothing stands out to me. Gun to my head I'd call him town but some of his points bother me. This weak read was brought to you by DaBackPack's avatar.

If DBP shows up at the last second, that is going to make me want to vote for him a lot

alright, he was a wolf last time, sure. He DEFINITELY does it regardless of alignment so I don't get why you're so set on this considering his fairly long track record of pre-EOD ambivalence.

will give townread for a picture of a chicken chalupa

[the sun fan]

definitely think raeko is more townie today during her interaction with Lar, that's about all I get from duskfall/lar/raeko.

I'd really like shadow_god to step up to the plate with some reads, specifically a scumread he has with some strongish reasoning. I will be voting him until this happens shadow_god

[Duskfall]

Think sunfan is above rand town atm

I agree he does do this as both alignments but he does it even more when he is a wolf. it's hard to explain but it's like he will come in at EoD and try HARD as a wolf while as human he still pops up but isn't as tryhard. idk if that makes sense

I didn't scum read him for the stance.

Other then maybe 3 years ago I haven't scum read anyone solely for that stance.

The practice of letting inactive live is antitown and I swear if you pretend that you don't understand why o will find the time later tonight and quote me explaining it to you from all the past games you've asked me about it instead of having to type it all out yet again. It's in poor taste to ask questions you already know

[MixMasterLar]

It's concerning that someone would think I'm scumreadinh Dusk because of the inactive thing when in he <he> voted me for it, and I found it not worth arguing over.

Meanwhile the duskfall/Storn interaction and Dusk trying to retroactively come up with better reasons is a real think and it just doesn't get the buzz that me saying the word fuck does.

Old School Lar would riot but current Lar is sitting in his truck wishing he was anywhere but here doing anything but this and is becoming increasingly ok with the idea of ghosting this game until next phase

I didn't understand at the time what you meant by "no quotes" so now that I know I'll take that advice for the future. Thanks.

And I also understand that you're gonna treat me how you treat everyone else, cuz to be honest if nobody did that I don't think I'd ever improve at this game since I don't see people pressure me very often, if anything it's always either Charu or you most of the time.

SIDE EDIT: It's been about 45 minutes since I typed the above sentence, chalupa pic inbound by the way as well. am at a meeting for the play I'm in and we're doing a readthrough so am prolly gonna be a bit later than I was expecting.

[Duskfall]

Can you stop saying I came up with a reason later just because I repeated the same reason when someone asked me a question I'd already answered

Its making me tunnel you more
