Why does 112’s “explanation of how she hunts scum” merit a town-lean?
I'm scared of you Sloonei is the only reason I still have you as null. You fooled me all the way in that game we just played (the name escapes me but it was the one where Jay was also bad).

As far as 112 goes I thought her answer was detailed enough to be able to judge whether she is doing what she says she does when she scum hunts. It wasn't a vague answer that would be harder to track.
GoC. I had the luxury of being able genuinely scumhunt in that game.

I don’t disagree re: 112

Oh you know, thats true. You could legitimately scum hunt in that game which is probably why your scum play in that game looked like your town play in other games. I didn't consider that. My impression of you here then is town.

ANCHORS AWEIGH
Tuesday, March 3rd, 2020
6:00 a.m. EST

Throughout the penthouse, different rooms catered to different political persuasions. FoxNews, CNN, MSNBC, and various livestreams and internet radio broadcasts created a torrent of ideology, opinion, and information. Occasionally a channel would shift to CNBC or FoxBusiness, but most everyone wanted to hear the early morning Super Tuesday coverage.

Would Tom Vilsack bounce back after surprising defeats in New Hampshire and Nevada, or would Bernie Sanders make this a serious race?

Were Donald Trump Jr.'s narrow victory over Rand Paul in Iowa and even narrower loss to Marco Rubio in South Carolina signs that he might struggle to hold onto his father's supporters?

Could Mitt Romney build on his New Hampshire victory in moderate and swing states?

Every talking head had an opinion. Everyone was certain that they would be right by night's end. No one could agree on anything.

Everyone in the penthouse could agree on at least one thing- the high-tech bracelets and anklets that were placed on them overnight were both uncomfortable and unnerving. Mandatory lockdowns were not uncommon, as their captor used them to replenish supplies and bring meals into the kitchen. The use of knock-out gas inside their rooms was even less common but not unheard of.

Breakfast would remove the unsavory aftertaste of the gas from their throats. Today's arrangement was no less impressive than most days. Quiche, breakfast omelettes, home fries, sausage gravy and biscuits, and a plentiful array of fresh fruit and yogurt. Being held hostage by a psychotic teenager was no picnic, but no one could say they weren't fed like kings.

Despite the gas and the new accessories, The Keymaster felt exhilarated. The night provided much-needed evidence to a long-held suspicion. But what to make of it?

Both The Superdelegate and The Parliamentarian were distracted through breakfast. The others assumed it was due to Super Tuesday, but they were really both preoccupied with their mental lists. What would the best first move be? Too much or too little? Decisions, decisions.

When the residents finished their main breakfast course, they approached a dish covered with an opaque lid. This was always the grand finale- something delectable and unique.

"Let's see what's in store for us today," Pamela said. But when she lifted the cover, eagerness turned into confusion, which soon after turned into disappointment. Fear would come later. For now there was a cube with a slot cut into the top, 15 pieces of paper, 15 pens, and a nasty little note that read:

Happy Super Tuesday.

Time to vote.

So those tildes under Powers. Back in the old, old, old days that represented text that we were supposed to try and fill in to discover what was being said (in this case what powers are in the game). Anyone else remember the tilde exercises? I think I'll ask G-Man what the deal is and ask him to respond in the thread.
The tildes are indeed an echo of a long lost era. The section filled in with tildes is a puzzle for you players to solve. You do not need to submit guesses as to what they mean, but it is in your best interest to decipher the information they mask. The tildes will reveal their secrets in due time.

It's the password to Trumps twitter account. I already know it. That's why I've been making Trump's tweets sound so crazy.

What can you tell me about 112 the mafia player that I might not already know?
I'm better at solving the game in my head than I am at explaining why I think what I do.

That's false because your job isn't to do things in your head. Your job is to do things in here where everybody can see them.

Nothing real specific. I rely pretty heavily on meta reading on my other site lol, but that won't work here.

Prolly just gonna prod around where I think something should be prodded at.

I think the ideal way of approaching the game is building a town core of people you can trust and solving scum through POE

My approach to later days isn't much different except obviously you have flips and interactions you can work with

This post feels a bit wordier than it needs to be. Stressing that she’s going to ask G-man feels like she’s going out of her way to demonstrate her forward-thinkingness. But that’s more of a mild ping for juliets than it would be for others.
I was just trying to explain it clearly because I knew most people wouldn't be familiar with it. I'm not sure what you are saying about forward thinkingness but that's ok. You can explain later if you still have issues with it.
Like "I'm going to ask the host so that he can explain it to us, Fellow Townies."

There's not much you could say about this anyway. I'm more interested in hearing whether or not you've got any reads at this stage.

No. Just no. You no better than this.

Using the theme to crack a joke and make an entrance, meme-ing using Trump quotes feels unoriginal. It's actually something I'd be pinged about usually, like it's more prevalent for scum to break the ice that way. It's a nice way to sling some shits, and get stuff going.

Not this time though
I feel like trying to form a read on an entrance like that is more scum-breaking-icey than the entrance itself.

do you think town go about breaking the ice a different way? or is it something you don't expect town to do or care?
