Yeah, YEAH! I agree with SVS, this is @DrWilgy’s fault if we lose

I don’t have an issue with the mechanics; it’s the snap voters. Especially with small games.

I do agree with this- this sure feels like a slank falcon. He’s maybe a tad more engaged than he was in Warbreaker where he was bad, but I found that pretty weird to describe this game as not-slanky

Rico’s vote broke the tie between Thunal and Epi. He yeeted Epi.

So I doubt either of them was Epis partner. I need to read some ISOs. Right now I’m mainly waiting for Scotty.

He feels completely opposite to me in his takes and I'm a little paranoid of him going after Syn.

The Thunal point in particular: the conclusion does not match the observation at all. No thought was given to this read, ergo wolfy.

Marmot wrote: ↑Thu Aug 10, 2023 2:07 am I do like some of falcon's earlier observations and questions. He didn't seem to be rushing conclusions or have an agenda.

My second to last post.

What are you thinking off the top of your head?

Off the top of my head I'm thinking we should chop Rico since I don't scumread anyone else so Rico has a significantly higher chance than random of being mafia, but I'm going to continue checking for misclears and if I get a scumread elsewhere I'd rather pursue that. So far I feel pretty confident Scotty and Nutella are town on reread.

Dizzy is an enigma. Syn calling dizzy a top town read is laughable. Dizzy is rather despondent. Epi called him mean, which equates to, as dizzy describes, bluntness. But I see the opposite. He’s a bit aloof and isn’t ruffling any feathers. Blendy, not pushing the envelope. I support a dizzy vote if the rest of y’all with votes remaining choose to go there

This seems circular

I'm asking for an explanation of why myself (or Rico) are a townread, and I'm looking for something more than "because you weren't townie" because that's restating the same thing.

What even is this convo?

Nutella had some quick reads. And then this somehow developed to this whole conversation where Marmot tries to ask Nut why she's Nut. And they both use words while also not really trying to communicate. Like, it's kind of unnecessary to communicate about in the first place, but they do it anyway, but they don't really do it.

I do not like it.

The first few pages just reads awkward and wolfy to me. Like "haha, mafia, right? Questioning and such, am I right, fellow townies, haha". His question to Sean isn't something I see him actually wondering about. Neither is his question to Nutella. And then he agrees with Nut's read on Scotty when Nut doesn't have a read on Scotty. It's jitters. Someone said it was jitters actually.

My first ever-so-slight pressure was on Marmot whom I now lean town. I haven't really had scumreads aside from defaulting to the 0-1 posters and shrugging a bit on Epi/Thunal for a couple pages (Thunal has moved up a little but subject to return). I just now put you on the bottom of my list and I don't think I had indicated that inclination much prior to responding to your post above.

My reads have not been following a particularly snowbally pattern at all. They've been in flux. Explain this read.

Actually, when did you lean town on Marmot? When did it start? Cause a moment ago, you agreed with me calling him wolfy.

Are you town?

Yes

I 55% believe you.

Why? Do you have any thoughts on me?

Yes. The way you're playing I think would be easy for you to do as a wolf, and someone said you played similar to this in a town-game recently, which makes me suspicious that you're meta-replicating that game.

However, if I look past the paranoia, I kinda feel okay about you, and I agreed with you on Marmot, at least for a little while (and am curious about what you think of my Marmot 180).

Who said that? Probably not that recent if so. Anyway. I'm not controlling or laying anything into the way I play this game. I'm playing because Marmot asked me and I saw Thunal was playing. And I'm barely playing.

I don't know how I feel about your 180 or most things in this game yet.

I get the feeling that it's not a good idea to chop Lime.

If we're talking about things I actually do believe somewhat in, it is that SVS calling Scotty paranoid in a (friendly) taunting manner is town indicative for them, and Thunal picking up on exactly that should probably be good for Thunal. I still think Marmot's posts on the first few pages was smelly.

Syn viewing me as happy go lucky is pretty much the opposite of how I feel after getting unsure on Marmot. It's also not at all even a little bit like me in GoC. I'm thinking maybe he just didn't like that I didn't suss him for town reading Marmot, but he's saying other things about me instead. I don't know.

I'm generally a bit tired and haven't tried all that hard to solve this game yet.

I don't think it's obvious at all tbh, you acknowledged Sean's explanation of his townread, but still listed me as your probable vote for the day in your very next post.

If voting for Lime Coke, please use Kate's option within the Poll. A tagged locking vote for Lime Coke will work going forward. Please don’t discuss or speculate about substitutions. Thank you!

Ah, I see. Well, since now I know that the vote is locked, I'll hold off voting the poll...unless it's locked by virtue of thread voting?



Lemme know

Town Brad has cringe reads, but not nonsensical reads

Agreed. That's a trait of Maf LC

I'm a bit paranoid that Falcon scumreads LC here but doesn't want his vote to be locked on him. When I've seen Falcon he doesn't change his vote often and usually keeps his scumreads for awhile, so I think t!Falcon might not mind his vote being locked.

We have 4 votes in non consensus places (including Falcons). That leaves 8 of us left to vote(and Rico has been AFK) .

For me, the three people that have votes already are off the table. Dizzy and Thunal are off the table for me since I’m townreading them both in addition to agreeing with LC.

I also town read Scotty and Syn.

That leaves my personal voting pool at Epi, Falcon, Marmot, Nutella and Rico.

I think Falcons belief that making more emotionally accurate posts by using qualifying words (for a tone reader like me) is wolfy is a bit old fashioned, but I don’t shade him for suspecting me for it. I’d rather not vote for him and I’d rather not vote for Rico since the only rationale for that would be low poster.

I think Nutella’s reaction was more frustrated than Wolfy. I also think Marmots bad and don’t see them and Nutella bad together.

That leaves, for me, Marmot and Epi. I’d prefer Marmot, but I really don’t want to spread votes too much do will consider others. I will have to vote half hour or so before EOD as I’ll be driving home when the poll ends.

I am in my late 60's



Is your SR of Epi more just a process of who's more towny, or is there something specifically wolfy you're seeing?





He has an activity litmus, and I'm not seeing him as wolf here.





Talk to me about Marmot, & Syn plz

I myself am 60; I didn’t mean old fashioned in that way. I meant like when Epi aggressively tried to yeet people over pronoun use. The good old days. Using grammar and word choice to set suspicion seems a bit, like I said, old fashioned.

I can’t really pull multi quotes on phone but I’ll do my best to do so before EOD which happens before I’m home to better explain how I feel about Marmot. I’ll try to pull quotes at lunch.

My Epi read is more absence of towniness than overt baddieness. All the people I said I would rather not vote for, I had reason to think they’re town. I also am not sure I buy the “oops I didn’t know votes were locked”,since he DID know about post caps. Whereas I think you really didn’t know when you voted. It seems more in character for you than for Epi. I’m not sure I buy that he believes what he says.

Syn just seems solvey and is engaging, asking questions and paying attention to the answers, it’s my experience when baddies ask questions, they don’t necessarily pay attrntion to the answers enough to follow up, so I’m TRing Syn more for general towniness as I see it than for meta specific to him. I don’t have as much experience with Syn as I do with most everyone else in here.

You've got 9 posts left...this one hardly seems like a wise choice, given that you've said you want to be around for EOD (will be back to vote & things later), and especially as it's somewhat ambiguous




I don't want you to use a post responding to this one btw




When you're able, would you mind talking about your Sean & Syn certainty?

To put it simply, they're both kinda polarized players, and aren't in their wolf meta.

To put it more eloquently:

Sean has had a little bit of bite in his pressure (particularly on me) in this game. That's townie for him. He's made observations that look fairly believable to me. Probably the one knock on him that could be wolfy is that his signals of who he might vote seems performative, but I'm not putting much stock in that because of the locked votes mechanic in the game. Talking about votes == placing a pressure vote in this game.

Syn often plays like a background player, being overly critical of things that catches his eye, generally not engaging players in extended discourse, but rather watching stating the things as they come. He's making reads that are not necessarily consensus. These are things that are somewhat townie for players in general, as they focus more on game-solving rather than trying to appear townie. I think they're particularly true for Syn because my (probably obsolete) meta expectation of him as a wolf is that he's extremely stilted and has trouble saying things in a way that looks like he believes them. If someone has different experience with w!Syn, or one that's more recent than 2020, I would love to hear it.

---------

But tbh, I'm not interested in chopping anyone in that list of 4 towncore I mentioned, so I'm not really into talking about them beyond this unless they become a viable wagon.


Do you have any opinions/preferences on Dizzy/Thunal/Epi?

Marmot wrote: ↑Tue Aug 08, 2023 10:07 am I'm leaning away from chopping nutella today.

I also refuse to chop Syn, SVS, Sean, and LC.


I'm disinclined to vote Dizzy, Thunal, or Epi. They're townleans but not srong ones atm.

This leaves me at falcon, Scotty, and Rico. I'm also not a fan of voting Rico because chopping a player with one post will give us very little to work with, regardless of alignment.

I do not wish the Maf a good game, they can go fuck themselves (respectfully, of course)





Hmmmm...

This feels kinda performative. Like looking for a reason to do some sabre rattling.

Is it kinda performative, or is it performative?




Of course I'm looking to rattle my saber, I'm here to lynch Maf




Your hedge is duly noted

Definitely kinda.

It feels more like a throwaway remark, like “I am town!”, than a serious attempt to actually appear towny.

It just seems somewhat (perhaps … kinda?) excess to needs. Not sure what, if anything it means. Performative.

Kinda. Maybe.
