    Casual reminder that Parian is one of the two lesbians in Worm.

    It's only like 2 posts though, you had feelings from something however mild

    Meh because of how relatively less excited I am about her powers. I'm a bit of a fangirl for main characters, I would've been an order of magnitude more meh if I had Cuff after realizing it wasn't a typo from Coil.

    I mean stitching together a specific kinda weak material that can be imbued to show some degree of automation is just so under-powered in the grand Worm universe (might be a mis-characterization of her power, which only further shows how much less I remember her)

    If I thought those feelings were worth elaborating on I would have done so at the time. I'm sure I could look and try to explain it but I already decided it was just static.

    Thus: that thing I posted twice.
    --- Post automerged ---
    Speaking of things I'm not explaining further:
    Fonti/voxx the only viable two-man team in [them+Newcomb]
    --- Post automerged ---
    (That's not quite a NKA for fonti/newc and voxx/newc, but they would need a third imo which... maybe)

    Vote: Eido

    Could have easily been a vote for Citrus instead though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I kind of want to call Tom & Newcomb town but I uhhh, think my reasoning on both of those reads is pretty terrible.

    Uh, something I could explain with words/links/quotes would be something I'd be reasonably happy with for this stage.
    Don't really even have that on you two at the moment, effectively boils down to "I think Newcomb feels like he's itching for this game to start and really have something to read and I think that probably fits him as town in this playerlist more than him as scum" and "I kind of think you're actually attempting to solve here a bit" but yeah.

    You're right. Those are both terrible.

    I don't really like Eidos focuses so far. I think the whole big part about reading into my early posts is..odd since he pretty much knows that early game isn't where I really start playing generally and think he'd bank himself to read me when I actually have reads and start investing in the game which makes it feel a bit like busywork (particularly attempting to engage Newcomb about it). But then it's sort of possible he's just town that's also struggling to find anything to do anything with at this stage and is sort of just, trying to create/do something to get the game going too, just think if he's town he'd be more inclined to do that about another player I think?

    At least give me a "tom is creating unalignments all over the place in a way he surely knows he can only get away with on mtgs. Sure he works with, like, lyric or citrus or something but eh"
    --- Post automerged ---
    I'm honestly surprised either of you are trying to read the other at this stage. But it's not really anything but "noted" either direction to me.

    Yep. I'm still going to claim credit if both are right though.

    And eh, the anti-alignment thing is probably true but I've not even attempted to do any anti-alignment reading yet, I'll devote some time towards end of the day phase to read through and probably start that then.

    I think unaligments should be pretty easy to come by among players this familiar with eachother. But are also gonna be less absolute for the same reason > scumbuddies in that group may want to come up with something crazy.

    So, like, more of them but less reliable.

    Yeah, so I don't really look for or try to do unreliable anti-alignments; I'm doing it to eliminate pairings and in this playerlist there's a few people that know that's how I play and can possibly try and play around that. Which is why I'm just going to wait until I have more data and information to work with before really starting looking at the game in that sort of way.

    I think we use those just inherently differently then. I'm all about "this is a meaningful percentage less likely" rather than "That's not a thing"

    And even moreso in this playerlist.

    Ok, to clarify then:

    I voted Lyric because I was curious how people would react as I think Lyric is null (more on the town-side of null if I had to force a side from the few posts). That's why I don't get why your initial gut impression was "yeah I kinda agree", as it leaves me ???

    Still would like your thoughts Fontisian (f ye have any), as I'm curious of your impression esp since you just had a long run of stuff with Tom

    Vote: Newcomb

    what an interesting color

    --- Post automerged ---
    Eww I just realized I'm going to be gone for the last ~18 hours of D1. Also we're almost at the half-way point of D1 already?!?

    The post-rate is abysmal for 50% of D1 like come on peeps
    --- Post automerged ---
    ...we're past the halfway point actually...

    Go ahead and put me down for "encouraged wagon and shaded but refused to get his hands dirty" then.
