How’s this game feeling so far?

I left the thread ~24 hours ago with no inkling of a scumteam and a couple light townreads and that hasn't changed.

Yourself?

I’ve been able to hover around all day today and I feel pretty good about a relatively large group of town reads. I lack any definitive suspects though, and would like to actually have a tangible suspicion against somebody as we crawl toward the deadline.

Suspect me, I dare you.

Why should I?

rough snapshot of where my brain is at. i feel good about jagged/sloonei/dizzy/sonofanarch being villagers, and in a world where there is a wolf within these names, i believe that it would only be one. i townread limecoke/illario as well - i think that limecoke has consistently gotten more and more villagery as the day has gone on, and i think that illario has been villagery from the moment the game started - the only reason he isn't in my "confident town" tier is because i know how strong his wolf game is, and how bad i can be at reading him lol

falcon has made no impression on me so far. TSP is mildly wolfy solely because his posts don't make sense to me.

marmot is low in my list because as much as i love the GIF in https://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewt ... 76#p855876, i think the way marmot talks about TSP feels overly hedgy/cautious. sig is low in my list for obvious reasons

i do not think this is The Solve, and looking at this list more, i actually suspect i'm misreading someone in my list of towns (perhaps i should be taking a closer look at my read on Son Of Anarch - i wrote him off as town almost immediately when i have no idea what his range is like or how competent of a wolf he is), but i think it's a good enough place to start. current feeling is that there's a wolf or two in the bottom 4 names and then another wolf or two in the zero posters, and then one final wolf in the upper tier. that might an overtly convoluted way to explain my reads, but it's just how i'm looking at the game rn

Sloonei wrote: ↑Sun Sep 12, 2021 12:53 am I have deliberately avoid sharing an explicit read on Jay this game, as has become my habit lately, because so often people will just wait for me to give my thoughts on him and then sheep whatever I say, and I don't like what that does to the thread climate if it happens too early. We have played a bazillion mafia games together and are actually the same person.

I say this not to protest Dolby's suggestion that The Triad is too confident in each other, rather to emphasize that that perceived confidence is not without reason. There's a long history here, at least between Jay and I.

I have only known SPF since last year's champs tournament, but we were in multiple games together and discovered that we also tend to perceive the game along similar lines there. So there is again a strong degree of familiarity with her approach, in that it is noticeable and significant when our thoughts align early on.

You scumread them, but you don't?

I don't scumread either

What I meant is that the scumreads from you aren't scummy. Ie. I don't think that they come from a scum mindset.

What do you see in TSP?

Trepidation about engaging the game in an environment of early vibes and camaraderie.

Sloonei: I'd vote for responding to a joke post with an deadpan question.

JJJ and TSP: no qualms with either yet.

It is jarring to see "LC" used for anyone other than, well, LC.

It seems like the convenient thing to do.

Do you prefer another abbreviation Lime Coke?

How about we just call him Epi?

Well on MU I go by "BlueKang" so BK is the other one.

Or if you want to just call me Brad it's fine too. Half the people will know it.

Sloonei wrote: ↑Sat Sep 11, 2021 1:20 am What are we seeing in ilario that makes them a town read?

Fast snap reads.

Coming up with methodical town teams and sounding excited about them.

Going after someone he knows based off of past experiences.

I'm calling him town currently.
