No wonder I had no Townreads day #1 except Boogie. No wonder everyone looked like scum.

UNVOTE: Vyse because he had the courage to say what nobody else would. Don't worry, there's still an actual game going on here because nobody knows who's on the other teams.

THREADS!

PREGAME: Mad world - This...this felt nice. - Michael was incredibly disappointed in himself for actually agreeing to go do something with Beryl. - He wasn't actually all that sorry. - Part of him was worried his real motivation wasn't self-torturing altruism but instead the fact that it was one of the few things that still made him feel.

ISLAND:
Michael and all of his friends were going to be footnotes in a history textbook. - he was folding in on himself like a four-dimensional object in three-dimensional space - Everything was about pain, fear, and love. - "Gave them our reactions, our explosions, all that was ours; For graphs of passion, and charts of stars." - He had a duty to look into someone's eyes as he killed them. - Closure really did sound like nothing at all. - "I wish we were lovers, but it's for the best." - Michael Froese the award-winning murderer. That was who he was now. - "I wanted to lose myself." - "Good and bad, all roads lead to Rome and I just, it hurts too much to be a good person." - "Somewhere out there in the deep blue sea, there's this whale." - "...It's harder to be yourself than it is to be anybody else." - "The neighbors, they adored him for his humor and his conversation. Look underneath the house there, find the few living things, rotting fast in their sleep; oh, the dead," - He gave her a big hug. He buried his head in her shoulder, feeling her cold, spongy, rubbery skin against his forehead. She had no eyes. She had no face. Something had eaten her face. - Michael Froese was a crazy person with a gun. - Validation. - "You don't live in a goddamned movie." - "I miss what it's like to be, like, actually alone." - "Market data inconsistent. Cantor API problem. Trading system offline," - Michael didn't want this. It wasn't like that'd stop him. - "I'm wide awake, it's morning." - He was a spree killer now, he supposed. - When he gave his word, he was giving nothing. - The fact they even existed was being politicized. - "BERYL FUCKING MAHELONA. TELL ME WHAT YOU DID TO BERYL MAHELONA," - 'Am I gray?' - A beach covered in unidentified decedents. - He'd never felt anything unconditionally. - "Look around you, you're surrounded.

She turned away.

"My gun is not loaded." - "Juliette, I'm sure you already know this, but you really should take pains to be careful around people who speak only in enthymemes." - "Someone once said, 'Change must come with the barrel of a gun', and they were not wrong." - Two explosions.

You misunderstand Kermit, I'm not scum per se. I'm just orange nerd.

The role PM I was so worried about? The weird orange text?

It's because I'm freaking not with you guys. This is amazing

I vote that, if this is true, we just vote for winner between Kermit and I for putting it together.

Kermit got it first, but he had inside information since he was actually scum. I figured it out as Town without insider information, but later.

Your call. Should Kermit win, or should I?

I freaking love this. I just request that if you think Kermit should win, off me in the night.

Actually no, I'm not doing this half truth nonsense.

I was with Boogie. I'm dead sure he was scum.

I legitimately suspect I was on a different team than y'all though.

If I'm wrong, I'll eat it and accept the loss.

I don't think I'm wrong.

I legitimately think everyone is a traitor. It fits the flavor of the game, and it explains the bull crap that was Kermit's result + NKs.

Except I think I'm actually secretly legit, because I have a different clearance than you all. Which means my role was destined to auto-lose.

This explains EVERYTHING.

god i've seen so many scumslips from people who backtrack immediately after seeing everyone else pretending to be town it's great. The name of the game is paranoia. Instead of being paranoid about people being scum, we were paranoid about people being townies. If something looks like a goat (the goat is a metaphor for everyone being evil), sounds like a goat, and does goat things, it's probably a goat.

May I request a Maybe-Town win, just to spite our mod and figure out if my role actually is the BS I think it is?

No trophy here (That's on Kermit for figuring out the game and being willing to say it) Just curious at this point if there was a hidden condition and I want to troll MurderWeasel.

Like, I was really, really proud of taking my math from the perspective of a pure Town player. I feel like this level of BS was really freaking hard to simulate.

(My case depended on Boogie being Town - which I knew he wasn't, Kermit lying, which I knew he wasn't, and there being fewer kills in the game, which I knew their weren't. I think I managed to suspend all that to make a strong Town math case I'm kinda smug about)

Did I screw up somewhere?
