Radiohead Mafia [GAME OVER]

[VOTE: staypositivefrand ] aubergine

[Alison]

You don't have a vote? Lame. What a tease.

i'm really not confident on any wolf reads yet

Just sheep your top townread unless you think they're really bad at reading, then sheep your second top townread. A vote unused is a vote wasted, and votes speak.

[MacDougall]

Mac, why’d you decide to make a full 180 on your decision of slanking the game?

Did you actually rand a good wolf team and feel like you are compelled to try?

Because I had a sudden desire to play mafia

[Samusamu]

Ted is playing scummy on purpose apparently lol.

Because that's what town do on day 1 coming off multiple scum rands...

I cant see this guy as a town right now, but cant also imagine him with my scumreads, so prob he is the rogue? Meh.

[Alison]

Maybe Samu is the rogue. That was overly specific. It would explain my ambivalence on him being town/scum earlier.

[dyachei]

I vote but not always this early, alison. I'll get there

[Timsup2nothin]

Mac have your thoughts on Ted changed since you made this post?

[Samusamu]

@tedxtr do you still have a townread on me amd what do you think about timsup2nothing's vote?

Why do you think, out of all the players, that Ted's opinion is the one worth asking for specifically?

Because he said he would rescind his townread on me if I happened to be an experienced player and I told him that I was an experienced player but I didn't see him rescind the townread

I thought you were asking him about my vote, which is currently on you.

I couldn't guess why out of everyone available to ask for an opinion regarding my vote, you asked Ted.

Did you expect Ted specifically to offer something you could build on?

I was looking for a connection between ted and yourself, he basically avoided answering my question about your borderline omgus vote wth flimsy reasoning behind it. That's connection enough for me

Oh okey, is enough for you, for sure, after that u stop doing pressure in that scumread of yours

[MacDougall]

A little bit.

Why?

[Alison]

I feel like if town thinks someone has both town and scum traits, or is indecisive which to put them in, you just call 'em null. It's >>rand 3P to randomly accuse someone of being 3P.

Finally read the 550 posts that were made while I slept.

Sprityo feels like he is being town spewed.

I think Nutella and Nanook are mafia.

why is nanook mafia?

Nanook I could be sold on, should prolly recheck his iso in the morning

I will make a wall or something probably

You usually have a good read on Nut, right? Or am I mixing it up with Jack?

[MacDougall]

A butt load of people have town cleared themselves. Its fine for there to be a lot of town reads. The town that are relatively inclined to vanity hunt should reserve their desire to do so for day 1.

I usually read her well and likewise.

Nanook feels like he's floundering amongst the overt towniness of the game.

I don't actually see much flounder from nanook. Talk to me about this a little bit?

[MacDougall]

Later. I've got to go to work.

[NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME]

Idk dude usually sprit is a hard read but this game he feels super townie to me

Especially his interaction with broseph earlier it just reeked of tired townieness

This was addressed to SPF fwiw

i have zero meta on spirit but i thought the way he handled mac's fos on him was pretty awkward

With the knowledge they have a bit of a history

To me it felt like “I’m tired of doing this with joe every time I roll town, I’m gonna try something else this time”

[Alison]

Alison some of your reads require extrapolation.

I don't know what this means but if you don't understand any of them you can let me know.

If you mean pre-flip associatives, I haven't really made any, most/all of my reads have been fairly individually townie/scummy.

[Dyslexicon]

dizzy what are your reads?

I'm not reading the game, I'm just trying to find someone ok to sheep.
This is my slank play. It happens. I'm sorry.

I was looking for a connection between ted and yourself, he basically avoided answering my question about your borderline omgus vote wth flimsy reasoning behind it. That's connection enough for me

LOL...I'll give you another connection.

The last game I played with Ted he came out with a totally unsupported "Tim seems scummy" just like you have done here.

I voted for him then, just like I voted for you here.

He cried about it being a "borderline OMGUS vote with flimsy reasoning" just like you are doing here.

After some back and forth he sort of tucked his wolf tail and ran because I wasn't the easy mischop he was hoping for.

So, are you a wolf this game just like he was that game?

@tedxtr is any of this true?

Ted seems to have dipped, but there are plenty of players here who also played UPick2, so getting confirmation should be easy enough.

Why are you so focused on asking Ted stuff? Do you not care what anyone else thinks?

It is strange that ted had no opinion of your vote on me and you say that this has all happened before in a previous game involving you and him specifically

And I do care what other people think

This is mud.

[NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME]

It’s more than four hours and I’m still townreading sprit, wtf am I supposed to do with this

what about trying to convince other people (specifically the people who scumread sprit) that sprit is town

Ok

Sprit is town

Are you convinced yet?

Shockingly, no

let's go

what he's so pure though

I stanned him in g9 and I'm stanning him now

[staypositivefriend]

fwiw im having trouble finding my footing in this game. there's a lot of meta so it makes it harder to jump into my scumhunting, and i also don't feel particularly inclined to sort all 20+ players like i would in a normal game

i'm probably just going to hang out in this thread until i find something worth talking about, and also ISO people of interest that im trying to read more carefully. something about tim's tone earlier in the thread bothered me quite and i wanna figure out why

[Timsup2nothin]

A little bit.

Why?

Because I thought you were maybe onto something there. I have a number of reasons I could offer for "playing wolfy" on day one myself. But if I got on one of these "rand wolf streaks" that I have seen people get on I think it would have an impact. Like I recently played a homesite game after another vicious wolf game and I came out just playing town wildman to the point where I got N1Ked...over Pizza absurdly enough. It does seem odd that after a string of wolf rands Ted would open with the playing wolfy as baiting strategy.

Does it seem to you like after you called him on it he shifted to "towning it up"? Do you trust that isn't a fake?

@Timsup2nothin come on. This is not a wolf trying to push some shady agenda. This is town who thinks they've found a lead and are suspicious that they're getting pushback on it. This is a townie response.

The strange parallels continue. There were people saying almost this exact thing about Ted in Upick2. They were right, in that it was "a very townie response" from Ted then. The problem was that later we found out Ted was actually a wolf.

Oh.

[staypositivefriend]

this might be weird but ted's push on me is probably the strongest towntell ive seen from him all game

[nutella]

god i don't know what that emoji samu uses is supposed to mean but it's funny as shit

[juliets]

@juliets Where did you go? Are you still catching up?

Yes, but I'm tired of catching up so I'm reading the current discussion. I have some people I'm leaning town on right now and they are in no order:

Mac
sprityo
Alison
tutuu
Dizzy

I can probably name some more tonight as I read more or look at some iso.s These are mostly tone reads except for Alison who I find myself shaking my head in understanding/agreement with for many of her posts.

I'm also feeling better about ted. He has a particular tell I look for when he's wolf that I will watch for (I won't share it unless I see it).

i dont exactly love you coming back from your catch-up to echo the consensus townreads with no reasoning beyond "tone". it's fine if you tr these people but i hope to see more thoughtful analysis/reasoning from u

[VOTE: Samusamu] aubergine

let's go

what he's so pure though

I stanned him in g9 and I'm stanning him now

I actually agree! It was why I was townreading him at first!

But, like, his reads are so bad and disagreeable, and then there was that really, really weird accusation that came totally out of the blue of Mac being Rogue.

Has anyone else even mentioned Rogue besides that joke claim at the very start of the game? No, we've all forgotten that the 3P exists. We're focused on the town vs mafia aspect of the game. Not Samu though! He remembers Rogue exists. Rogue is on his mind, to the point where he rejects much more natural conclusions ("Mac is a mixed bag" "Mac is null" "I can't sort Mac") in favor of a real reach to call Mac 3P. I genuinely believe that this is a >>rand 3P tell, and I can show you a game where 3P outed their alignment exactly like this.

It would explain all the stuff I found confusing about him. He seems so agenda-less and his tone is so pure because he really doesn't have an agenda (or at least not the kind of agenda we expect from scum), and he really isn't trying to manipulate anyone. He's doing something completely different from the war between town and scum. He's giving reads like they're obligatory, because he isn't really invested in solving. They're bad reads because he doesn't put thought into them and he doesn't follow up on them, but they aren't constructed to feed a certain narrative or undermine certain players because he genuinely doesn't care.

To me this read makes a lot of sense and it ties all the threads of Samu's behavior together neatly. I'd really like to sit on this wagon and see how far I can ride it.

[Samusamu]

Tim, I think you're town but not everyone does. And you think Oddmerta is wolf but everyone else disagrees. I think you're super valuable to the town if you can get your way out of the POE and into the trusted list, so I'm going to shield you and use my clout to get people to trust you. And in return, I want you to trust me about my read of Oddmerta. If you're still convinced Odd is wolfing, fine. He must have buddies. Find those buddies.

Well...no on pretty much all fronts here.

I think Oddmerta is worth conversing with further. That really isn't the same as "I think he's a wolf." I don't make that kind of committed judgement, either way, based on a quarter of a phase worth of mostly fluff posting in which not even all the players have started to participate. Mac is the one post reader, not me.

I similarly have very little interest in who does or doesn't think that I'm town at this point, because I know I haven't DONE anything yet. I've SAID stuff, but there is genuinely nothing I can say as town that I am somehow incapable of saying as a wolf. As Mac said while NOT one post reading me, I am an avocado. I have to produce results within a reasonable period of time or I should get sussed and chopped, but it won't be day one. So don't worry about "using your clout" or shielding me. Getting face to face, and in the face, of people who suss me is how I sort the misguided townies from the opportunistic wolves.

By the way, if by chance Oddmerta turns out to be a wolf, the most likely buddy looking person so far would have to be you. You do seem sort of protective.

Town credits.

But alise seem protective with his townreads en general, like a confident player that wont retreat his reads so easily, what specially makes him buddy with odd?
