Re: It's a Mysterious Universe (D1)
We have nearly 48 hours left in Day 1. I don’t think it behooves us to pile votes on one person immediately.Alison wrote: ↑Fri Oct 23, 2020 6:01 pm I think it's a pretty ugly look that Vulgard's "throat has been thoroughly jumped down" but nobody seems to want to actually vote him. I think there is a good chance he is scum and his teammates bussed for early distance but are afraid to commit the vote because they were scared by the apparent steam his wagon was building and didn't want to lose a member so rapidly.

Re: It's a Mysterious Universe (D1)
The two worst mafia players in the world are voting for the confirmed best player in the world. Unbelievable.

Re: It's a Mysterious Universe (D1)
Basically it means I get to win every argument about mafia from now until the end of time, and I get a special undertitle on MU.

The first one especially rubs me the wrong way. The only thing I assume about this Nanook game is that the out-of-thread element is not the same as his last game, because I expect Nanook to have a bit more creativity than that. I expect, at the very least, a fun twist on it that would intentionally subvert our assumptions based on the previous game. Standard 'sequel' stuff.
That said, I can't see what value Sloonei expected from that question. There's nothing alignment-indicative about the way nutella answers this, and there's probably little relevance to this game.

Re: It's a Mysterious Universe (D1)
I want Vulgard to have room to breathe. So far his throat has been thoroughly jumped down. I’ve never played with him before and it’s entirely possible that the things we’re eying him for are just Vulgard playing mafia.

Re: It's a Mysterious Universe (D1)
How would you describe my posts?Alison wrote: ↑Fri Oct 23, 2020 4:53 pmSloonei's posts don't strike me as "hardcore solving". Walk me through what about Sloonei's posts struck you as being particularly high effort.Vulgard wrote: ↑Fri Oct 23, 2020 3:04 pm I don't like Alison's thin read on Long Con, I don't think it's reasonable to townread him for such a thing this early.
I like Sloonei, though. I like how he's already hardcore solving, and he's doing that in a way which doesn't come across as forced.
To answer his question -- I'm honestly not sure how to answer it at this point, because my playstyle tends to be pretty fluid. I usually try to find mafia and/or town through macro reads, and when I want to push a mafia, I case them, like I did last game. This means that I am invariably stumbling around blind on day 1 and only later developing the ability to find people's alignments with higher confidence.
TL;DR Focus on macro reads, gets better as the game goes on, usually.

Interesting. LC was quick to jump on the idea of Vulgard being mafia.

Re: It's a Mysterious Universe (D1)
In Assassin's Creed the out-of-thread people were doing things. They just weren't in the thread. They joined us like... Day 2 or 3, maybe? But only for one phase, and then retreated back to their home on Mt. Olympus or whatever.

Re: It's a Mysterious Universe (D1)
People have squinted at me for saying that I have "genuine" reads in the past, as if every read I share as town is supposed to be genuine.
So with that in mind, here's a read of unknown sincerity:
Vulgard is mafia.

Re: It's a Mysterious Universe (D1)
What do you mean by “theory meta”?Syn wrote: ↑Fri Oct 23, 2020 12:18 pmI'm agitating to play with, I think. I lean towards banter D1 and poking holes in reads/theories, but it's not often that I make a case myself unless it's mechanical. I don't like theory meta and only opt for player meta when it's a consistent trend (e.g. I'll say something is in someone's wolf meta if it's something I've seen them do every single time they rand wolf).
With D1s, I'm usually outspoken in that it's tough to give a genuine read, barring a screw-up from a wolf or exceptionally anti-town play. I generally veer towards "D1 is a gut shot at best." But D1 behaviour can become relevant later too.
I never do walls. And I've only done an ISO once in 14 games. The closest I get to an ISO is remembering something someone said and then trying to go find it.
