[VOTE: Davos] aubergine
If you guys decide you wanna kill me over Davos, that's totally fine tbh. I'll take the gamble even at low odds.
This character is on the poll, which means we need to assess the poppet as we would anybody else. I have admittedly been ignoring it, which is on me.

If we replace the name with something like "Epignosis" or "nutella" or whatever, I think it's safe to conclude that this individual would be history. Five posts in this thread, and all of them just votes.

Needless to say, no civilian wants this activity level around in a potentially endgame scenario.

There is a bit of a gamble here. If our situation is 5v1v1 like I think, and the poppet is civilian-aligned, then killing it today most likely makes Day 8 a 3v1v1 scenario, which isn't the end of the world. If I am wrong, and right now it's 5v2, then that course of action makes thing far dicier.

However, a 3v2 with a five-posting civilian poppet is probably game over anyway. :meany:

So [VOTE: Davos] aubergine

Do you have confirmation that the mafia members were evenly divided?

I can accept that as a possibility, but I'm not operating as though that's gospel.
Even if not, do you think that 2-6 is a reasonable divide? There are many scenarios where town would have been forced to mislynch D2 on the other side with that setup, depending on vigs/etc.
If they divided randomly, you're making a terrible mistake in that assumption.

I refuse to make assumptions.

There are two mafia left as I read the game. And they need each other dead. I am not worried about food. Nobody else should be either.

There's nothing wrong with the civilians getting one mafia on board to kill the other.

And I'd expect the wolves to be desperate enough by now that they'd want to actually solve
Idk, I guess from their pov they would still want a town misyeet or two before taking each other out cause it would be easier to reach parity, given that there's only one wolf on each team (if even distribution)
This is where my heart comes in over my head.

Delta is a good teammate. I should know.

Delta has been rather lackluster here, and I think Delta would be letting his team down if he indeed had one.

Re: Game of Champions- Merged Thread [Day 6]

I don't have the bandwidth to be as systematic as I would like.

TSP's posts in relation to falcon are blatantly terrible (mine were too). Rico accused falcon on the basis of this rather directly, I'd say (based on my interpretation of the pictures), while Rico's treatment of me was more open ended.

There's nothing in his posts about Lemon or Rico.

Lemon defended TSP from a leetic accusation.

++++

TSP also defended pyxxy in the West Wing.

++++

TSP could be paired with either team.

Lemonfairy wrote: Sun Feb 04, 2024 12:54 am WindwardAway - Windward would actually be the towniest out of everyone on Lemon's wagon. In my past read lists, I have consistently placed her in the lowest group of reads until I moved her up on Day 2. The initially reason was because she felt awkward and out of place in a thread where most people were vibing and having a good time but in hindsight, that could have been because she just wasn't in the mood. Later on, due to tensions in the thread in the East Facility between Windward/Alison/Sabi, I consciously or unconsciously refrained from progressing with my read on her (it's easy to misread people when they're riled up/emotional). I went back to ISO Windward at a later time and eventually moved her up to townleans.

Now with regard to my wagon, Windward is probably the only person, out of everyone on that wagon, who has actually tried to interact with me. She has quoted and pinged me more than once to ask about my reads. If I think about it, the only other people who have done this are Michelle and Creature, who have both flipped town. Other than these, there is Cape, who I think is one of the few people who actually reads my posts (more on this later). While I do accept that I have been relatively closed off in my own world, I also think it's really easy for scum (and also town) to push me without trying to understand where I'm coming from when I post my reads.
There's also this juicy thing. I don't think it's sporting to hold this on its own against WWA since WWA isn't the author, but I still have to think about it and dig into the other side.

Wagons

Overall, I'd favor a falcon lynch over a Lemon or Monroe one. Grouping bias is a factor, cuz I've played and judged falcon down in West, whereas I know less on why the other two are wolfread or didn't catch all the details from others' cases.

Between Lemon and Monroe, I'd place Monroe within question marks, both in regards to why they've become a D3 wagon and what they've done in response.

So, falcon > Monroe > Lemon

falcon

West - pyxxy connection: none that could have been established, because they interacted with / mentioned each other a total of zero times
West D1-D2 judgement: ended D2 with a low opinion on him and down on my would-vote list; excluding pyxxy connections I considered (Porscha, Delta), he was the lowest ranked de facto. West gameplay resembled current gameplay: brief intervals of engagement, much of which was spent prodding others (with a degree of randomness, never focused) or reactive-toned defending when voted/wagoned
D3 judgement:
-- pretty much the same, tone and grasp of play have not improved.
-- noted him hitting back in rebuttal form at most of his wagoners (Sloonei's characterisations, calling MRadishes opportunistic, bark back at nutella), plus placing three others (leetic, sig, Abigail) within wolf pairings with no reasoning. so pretty much a kind of "you're all bad" howl.
-- parked defense into two main ideas: that the Western nightkills are a frame and that he is towning like mad and we fail to see it. Former boils down to wifom, as leetic also said; latter is not something I can agree with, based on what I've judged. I've read or remember no strong meta read from others on this gameplay, as it stands, being town!falcon indicative
-- meanwhile, withheld to offer townreads (apart from not wanting to vote LC and Epignosis).
-- of his votes, Abigail and Monroe were/are without discernible cause. Monroe isn't even the counterwagon to self-pres on, at the moment

Monroe
D3 judgement: only 3 posts, of which their essence is an aggro response and vote on Epignosis (for their vote / case on them); other reads (Delta ping, wouldn't wagon Lemon) all vague. It doesn't look great, of course, to drop and omgus upon the very first interaction with a player from the other group. But also not the deepest material to make a solid case out of. Hence the question mark status.

Lemon
D3 judgement: I'd structure 3 phases, thus far, of activity.
-- first phase (posts 1-3) in which she mentioned postponing activity and also a statement on the merger being a sensible disorienting moment. I think some wagoned her starting for as little as this and, without proper context if this would classify as a pattern from wolf!lemon (that I can remember), I felt it was undeserved.
-- second phase (pre legacy post), with a first wave of rebuttals (at nutella and Windward). something about wanting to sit more on it. at worst, could display nerviness in face of pressure.
-- third phase (the legacy post): quite a shift from small bites to extensive reads. rebuttal-wise, argues more than the cases on her are not solid or convincing, then also tiers the wagoners based on individual performance. if this alone (or more of this throughout D3), without suss pressure, would have been Lemon's activity, I'd probably read it well. given suss and wagon pressure, I am missing meta info on whether Lemon would as to go steroids, from feeble to opinionated, as wolf. also, a bit funny to have labeled it as "legacy", as if the lynch is a done deal.

tldr: falcon suss (with no prevailing meta info that he towns this way), Monroe who knows (startled by bad form, but tis all so far), lemon no real ping on her elaborate reply
Falcon hasn't shared any townreads?
@falcon45ca is this true?

And actually, the way Lemon said she expires D3/D4 made it sound more like she might die from a mechanical effect and not just because she might get lunched. I could be reading into it too much, though, and I know she can't confirm or deny it.
Big damn post here.

Only two folks commented on in the weakest way in response to RICO:

FALCON
LEMON

Re: Game of Champions- Merged Thread [Day 3]

WindwardAway + falcon45ca


A lot of time was spent on falcon and WWA going back and forth on falcon saying I AM TOWN as a first post and quoting something trite. WWA even tried to verify it but ran into "technical difficulties." I verified it and falcon even named a game where he did it (though to be fair, that audio file is probably expired).

My point is that this Night 0 exchange looks like bullshit to me.

why would i call falcon town? i've been sideeyeing him since his opening post, and like, i get that people are now telling me that he always says he's town as an opener but i sure ain't gonna townread that shit.
he's already this invested in a player interaction he's probably town imo
Is that how it works? I don't think any of his interaction had to do with making reads on people.
Oooo...look at nutella being all weird about the falcon stuff.

I think this reaction by WWA is over the top. Nobody expected anybody to believe falcon was TOWN because falcon said I AM TOWN.

Cape the indy pointed this out.

WWA used this as an opportunity to paint nutella in a bad light based a superficial issue.

This is textbook teammate compatibility.

WindwardAway can make an easily discredited claim against a teammate while making someone else look bad for it.

The last part of the conversation ends with a question and a vague shrug rather than pushing the conversation forward.

I think that is in contrast to this claim:

I've found Sloonei to be more reactive than proactive. I'm used to good Sloondog digging in and asking questions.

Moreover, Sloonei kept going on about falcon but has moved on from exploring that here.

Before that, Sloonei voted falcon to give pyxxy space (but did vote pyxxy eventually).
falcon hasn't posted in this thread yet, though?
I don't see the relevance.
Sloonei wrote: Fri Feb 02, 2024 8:45 pm I missed the entire second half of Day 2, but during the first half of the phase Epi put forward a decent argument for Delta to be teamed with pyxxy (and I guess Lime Coke).

I have a vague and not-well-defined suspicion of Falcon.

Now that we're all in the same room, should we compare notes about whether or not this game might be multiball?
This is what I'm talking about. Why not ask falcon questions? Why not mention falcon? Why not summon his winged ass in here?

The vote on falcon was lukewarm and devoid of substance in the other thread. Sloonei seems content to leave it so. Instead of exploring that, "Hey guys, let's talk about multiball."
ah, I see your point.
There's a subtle defense of falcon here: "falcon hasn't posted in this thread yet, though?"

But there's a dead end on the conversation. Why not go, "Yeah, Sloonei, what's up with falcon these days?"

Fizzled.

++++

This was a poor job of trying not to quote.

A lot of the direct falcon exchanges look phony to me.

Re: Game of Champions- Merged Thread [Day 6]

Okay, last excuse: I'm not quoting anything unless I see a need to. I'm going to comment about what I'm seeing, and if you need references, maybe I can pick them back out after that, but this shit is too cumbersome, too many tabs, and too much bourbon.

Multiple threads are a pain in my ass. Especially when you have to be careful not to quote from one of them.

Re: Game of Champions- Merged Thread [Day 6]

Before I get into that, I do want to point out that the setup at this juncture is most likely 7 v 1 v 1. It could be 6 v 1 v 1 v 1. I don't see it being anything else.

My point is that the best use of your civilian energy is digging into teammate interactions (or lack thereof) rather than GUESSING (which is exactly what it is) how many of what team was where when.

Re: Game of Champions- Merged Thread [Day 6]

I really should start this shit REVERSE ALPHABETICAL order like some teachers used to do back in the day just to give the Zellers and the Williams kids a chance to go first for a change.

I feel like I've looked into Delta nine hundred times.

Re: Game of Champions- Merged Thread [Day 6]

Be that as it may, since I can reasonably be linked to Falcon's team by virtue of that (and I don't think anyone would reasonably suspect me to be a Landlord), I suppose it would behoove me to prioritize the red team. So that is what I'll do.

like i'm actually paranoid of epi because he was sort of weird about the falcon stuff and his spat with sloonei afterward and i think he's comfortable now idk
I am far from comfortable.

I worked a 31-hour Super Bowl hell weekend.

I stated as much beforehand.

I wasn't weird about falcon either. I was very clear on my position, and that position was a shit one. I don't fault anyone for suspecting me on the basis of that, but pairing it with me making a living over playing a game on the Internet and calling me comfortable for it is nonsense.

Ricochet (1) - said hi, said there were 12 pages, and disappeared.

Lemonfairy (9) - interacted with pyxxy and me, posted a readlist and then dipped before anyone else could engage her.

pyxxy (20) - said hi to a bunch of people, all fluff. Then replied to me when I was calling falcon out, to say that falcon declares he's town in every game. Replied to falcon, posted more memes. Really nothing of substance here, given that it's all memeing.

falcon (34) - the first thing of (maybe?) substance that he posted is actually a reply to me about what I said regarding Sabi's opening post, which was the source of why Alison scumread me. He also told me he declares he's town in every game. Then there was the debacle between Guillo and falcon regarding whether Nook and Guillo were both set in their own reasoning on how differently they reacted to Sabi's post. The last notable thing is falcon asking sig whether he agrees with Nut that the thread feels too negative.

Abbi (94) - calls falcon towny for saying he's town, tells me falcon definitely does that in every game. Tells Michelle she didn't get any townreads out of reading yet, agrees with Nut that the thread is depressing. Stuff about wanting to mason with Porscha, stuff about Caitlin. Then replies to Guillo that falcon is town for his reaction to the whole discussion surrounding him. Tries to pocket Caitlin (I think) in response to Caitlin calling her wolfy. Contradicts Guillo about Caitlin. Calls sig town. Calls my take that Caitlin is scummy for going against consensus and townreading me "intriguing". Taunts Alison (side note, I actually really wish I'd read this part of the thread before locking in on Alison in East Facility, even without Abbi's flip). Tells MR he's wolfy after he jokingly says to smack him on the head and call him wolfy. Replies in what seems like a slightly frustrated manner to Caitlin about disagreeing with her reads (Caitlin says WWA and Cape are wolfy, Nutella and Sabi are wolfy) and ignores the part about Cape and me. Says Nutella and Sabi aren't wolfy and Sabi is towny. Thanks Nutella for defending her against one of Alison's cases.

Conclusion: This was a big waste of time.
So why did you post it?

WindwardAway wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 5:17 pm Is there really much point in creating a counterwagon for the sake of having one, though? That seems a bit strange, especially for a wolf like Brad who is often extremely polarized to the point he will freeze entirely as wolf (as we saw in East Facility). There doesn't need to be a counterwagon if the wagoned player in question doesn't make any effort to support one. Brad didn't even give any (fake) scumreads, only townreads. So he was definitely in antispew trying to avoid putting a vote, and knew he would be bussed.

There's a ton of bullshit to wade through in Lemonfairy's posts, but that needs a fresher mind than I have right now.

I'm unwinding with two beers, a Yuengling and a Miller Lite, in that order, before I give this screen a pair of middle fingers and locate my bed. I apologize for being useless all weekend, but bills before kills.

I don't have to see a fucking football or read a word about football again until fall.

I am gleeful. I want to do somersaults. Alas, I am old and tired and will do myself a misCHIEF.
