Nah but why did you say you were sheeping me then completely ignore that I had Alison lock town and Ted in the POE specifically t/w with Wilgy?

Idk dude I looked back at your last readslist thing and it had two flipped town in the mafia spots and I was like...”welp I guess I’m on my own” lol

TIL you get yelled at if you don’t vote based on dreams

It’s also pretty fucking annoying to be told I wasn’t trying to figure it out, like fuck dude

But you’ve never fucked up a KILO or made the wrong decision when the game was on your shoulders, right? Right?

idk man i shouldnt be too salty but what gets me is you literally had the answer and elected to ignore your intuition along with all the actual evidence

dont ignore intuition especially when evidence supports it


alison was screaming truths at you and you were just all "lolshrugemoji" and choosing not to think and it was honestly p tilting

i dont want to be mean about it i dont even know if i would have gotten there in the same place i just disagree with your approach idk

I DIDNT IGNORE MY INTUITION

FFS my intuition told me alison was mafia, idk where this “you ignored your intuition” thing is coming from

Like alison being mafia was the gut read, not the purely logical one



And no, alison wasn’t screaming truths at me, she was presenting a narrative for her being town. It only worked if you assume she’s town, it wasn’t objectively true or more compelling. Like her voting and pushing 112 is exactly what she has to do as mafia with 112, it’s fucking meaningless that she was the counterwagon or that carote was on her instead of 112 without already knowing Alison’s alignment.

Yeah it’s easy when you don’t have to actually make the decision

Welp

I guess my dreams are more accurate than dunia’s

*cheat sheet

I feel like I’m the only one without the answers here and I don’t like it

Wtf guys why didn’t anyone share the cheat shot

The suspense is killing me

I had a dream last night that carote and ted were the team and I voted alison anyways. Dreams are a notoriously unreliable method of scumhunting though, so the approach I’m taking to it can be summed up best as

I mean yeah

If you’re mafia your NKs are kinda forced yeah, you can’t reasonably kill anyone else without facing “well alison is alive over X, probably cause they’re scum,” so that isn’t really convincing to me tbh

If 112 says “hey guys I’m dead weight this game I just don’t have time/motivation” I don’t see why you wouldn’t push them D1...especially with the amount of suspicion being put on you. Like...in a 112/Alison world it makes total sense to me for scumAlison to look around midday, go “hey, if I don’t kill mafia today I’m probably not endgaming...and my partners are a disconnected 112 and colin, who dies in most games he plays...I can’t just survive today I have to push mafia and get myself in the lower end of the towncore.”

Like how does that not make sense??


Also, like, from a theory POV m/m wagons D1 is often not a terrible thing for mafia as long as the right one dies.

Both worlds connect the dots, Alison

Like from a non-Alison POV both worlds make sense

My colin read is definitely not based on nothing, what

It’s based on an observed history of how 112 treats their partners

Like I’m sorry if you’re town, I think colin is the best kill today still, but if forced to choose between you and carote today I’ll vote you and you can lament my terrible read in post

That logic only holds with the assumption that you’re town. I don’t see why it’s particularly more compelling than the counter argument that a scum team of you/112/x would always rather have 112 die D1 than you

I still think this is the incorrect way to play it but

Fuck it fine make it end

[VOTE: Alison] aubergine

I think I’m close to ruling out a carote/ted team tbh, I see no reason for ted to not just take me as town in that world

NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Thu Aug 27, 2020 2:40 pm Idk but I don’t think alison/carote is the correct choice today, I think they’re *probably* not the team so I’d rather hunt the other mafia and deal with a potential difference check between them tomorrow tbh

I’ll probably regret this in post but oh well

Idk but I don’t think alison/carote is the correct choice today, I think they’re *probably* not the team so I’d rather hunt the other mafia and deal with a potential difference check between them tomorrow tbh

Like the problem for me is that a ted/carote or even a ted/colin (that would be a weird one tho) team is not impossible yeah


As for colin I think he’s mafia largely based on how 112 handled him, 112 largely pushes partners and he was one of her main pushes D1, thus the level 0 lizard brain says that colin is >rand mafia

I can and I will!

Idk man I’m pretty like

I think colin is mafia

And I think there’s a difference check between carote and Alison probably?


I also from a theory perspective think it’s fucking stupid to accept me as town and not follow my TK so

Like me being in a position to make decisions here is uh

Not ideal for town tbh, cause I just haven’t/don’t have time to really dive into and invest in this game.

So like...I can see why scum would probably be ok with it. I’m not 100% sure why whichever of you two are town is tbh, but like...I’m not questioning it at this point, and I’m basically TMIed town so

tedxtr wrote: ↑Thu Aug 27, 2020 2:01 pm I still manage to remain baffled as to why you're not being pushed more here.

From my PoV you've been anything but villagery and the argument of "he sheeped Mac lol" isn't really cutting it for me ; especially when Mac seemed to have terrible reads for the most part.

this game is fucking weird - everyone town reading you here is asinine and it verges on the edge of TMI from the scum team or straight up the town is just bad for not seeing it

I really don't get why you're being given the carte blanche. If anything, currently, you also do fit with Alison.

My assumption is that scum didn’t want to fight broseph and decided it was easier to try and pocket me than to get me killed

Idk man I don’t fully understand why I’m in the position I’m in either tbh, sometimes it is not ours to question why and simply ours to accept and move on as best we can

So the main problem is that Proto makes the most sense for both carote and Alison given his scumread on carote and his “kill alison at 5” thing

So like...I’m kinda loathe to read into Proto kill too much tbh, cause it makes sense for any team that isn’t ted/colin to kill him

In the meantime I’d love to hear where you are rn

Especially on alison but on anyone tbh

Yeh I feel that

I’ll be around late tonight for a bit if you are too let’s real time, I don’t have a super confident read on you tbh

But yeah I’d love to hear thoughts about alison tbh

I mean

You are sort of just not directly lol

Like the level zero easy world is either Alison/colin or carote/ted

Idk if scumAlison ties herself to her partner that strongly or not

I also hated alison’s “I have to reassess everything...my towncore is the same plus nanook” tbh that was really weird

I guess there’s no real reason I’m ruling out an alison/carote team going for the f5 cross bus to seal the deal at f3.

But, like...I think that’s probably a losing play for them, so idk

I’ll try to think more about teammate permutations later maybe, I don’t have enough time to figure this shit out properly but I feel like I owe broseph and co. at least an attempt

I low key hate that I have to make this decision lol, I’m in like the worst position to

This is hard because I actually really want to townread colin on tone, but like

I can’t get past the 112 stuff I don’t think so

Yeah I’m just ride or die with carote at this point and if they’re mafia you can yell at me about how obvious they were in post

Pretty sure colin is one, not sure if alison or ted is the second.

[mention]Carotenoid[/mention] can we do colin first, please? Pretty sold on him being mafia, combination of the resistance to doing him today and 112 scumreads on D1

Well broseph isn’t helpful his scumreads are dead town

Tbf they were mostly my scumreads too

Pending reread of carrote I’m probably at [VOTE: colin] aubergine being one of the mafia

Idk maybe

But I have to consider a world where it’s you, yeah?

I don’t really want to kek

Ugh I’ll probably just reread broseph and sheep his reads tbh

He probably disrupts status quo the least I think

Idk it’s a weird kill but not that weird

I really wanna say it’s just as easy as Colin and Alison but like

Proto dying in the night is super on the nose for that world kek

Maybe I need to actually consider carotte idk

If I don’t try hard today broseph will probably be mad at me so I guess I better do that kek

Welp

I’ll do world building later ig

Was low key hoping I’d die in the night but

@ColinIsCool

Voting me is voting a Civ. I'll offer Carotte as an option.

Carotte is a nonstarter for me, if you get movement to colin I’ll vote him over you for sure though

Ok

I need [mention]protocultures[/mention] to find a new suspect too

I mean

I’d prefer to just ignore ted/wilgy tbh but if that’s what we’re doing then it’s [VOTE: wilgy] aubergine for me

I don’t feel super confident about this hitting scum tho

Yeah idk how many were in postgame but I have the most posts in that thread by a wide margin kek

That was coronavirus mafia right? Definitely would not classify myself as slanking that game kek

I wasn’t slanking i don’t think, I was just matching the thread pace as I recall

More importantly he knows me pretty well and we’ve had fairly extensive discussions on theory

Broseph said so and he’s a god

DrWilgy wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 8:38 pm I'm not going to say I disagree with the LC lynch. But why did we policy LC over Nanook? There's a massive difference between a slanker that is here and a slanker that quite literally just subbed into the game.

He wasn’t a policy

I wasn’t killed because I’m town and enough people found me
