cool

and thanks for bringing up anni actually

cause what's been giving me pause for the last little bit is the fact that i'm currently top wagon over alison, who iirc is your top scumread

and that these wagons have (at least fmpov) felt pretty static ever since they got that way

and i feel like you've never been shy about shielding your townreads when they're under heavy fire; you did that for me a LOT in anni, and we both did it for tyranno in hydra game 1 when you were confident he was town

i would in fact expect this to be doubly the case in a situation where the counterwagon is someone you're very heavily scumreading

you HAVE stated that i'm your top town, which, yeah, cool

but i feel like you're engaging with other people's reads on me a lot less than i'd expect given that read, and given the gamestate we currently find ourselves in

and you were engaging w/ reads on alison earlier today, but alison's been talked about a fair bit the past few cages and you're like... doing something else entirely

and i just don't really feel a sense of urgency from you?

like in a sense it feels like you've got me as your top town primarily because you know i SHOULD be your top town and because you want to appease/pocket/whatever me, but you're not playing like that's true

so like... help me out here. has the read weakened over time? am i jumping at shadows? outside of your alison read your head feels a lot more black-box than i'm used to, and while i realize it's a light game, i still feel like your thread positioning isn't what i would expect it to be here
why are you posting like cuth
i guess you could say i'm just posting... off-the-cuth thoughts jajajajajaja

hope you're having a good day

but like no one's listening to me anyway
give me a general overview of what you wanna do here
I want you to be left alone, I think you're highly likely to be town

I want alison to be elimmed

I want more people to look at the case I posted with c4

I'm not sure what the case is even on you other than alison's case that you were setting up mis-elims which feels like agenda to me because villagers can do things that look like that easily and Idon't think you as a wolf would be that brazen

is it unreasonable for me to assume that outed wolf's wolf equity increases significantly if amy is a villager?

dont wanna seem like im setting up chops, but i was just thinking about how outed wolf and amy seem to have a unique dynamic where outed wolf is (presumably?) very good at correctly identifying amy's alignment, and he is confident that amy is a wolf. dyachei has a similar dynamic and claims to have the opposite impression. my gut tells me that an amy/dya wolfteam is too easy - it's just such a level 0 solve

arete what are your thoughts on like... anything, really?

just general gamestate overview, i guess
I've been having thoughts!!!! if you want specific new thoughts that aren't just the previous thoughts but rephrased slightly differently you're going to need to be specific

right now I'm looking through c4 and SPF's posts to try and verify Dya's progression case on him, it felt a bit agenda-y to me but I think some of that is that I was already villagereading c4. so far I've determined that Dya at the very least didn't leave out important posts in between the ones they quoted but I'm still overall not impressed by it, like I can't speak to c4's meta in particular but most wolves are not so incompetent as to literally just completely forget what their previous reads were.

for the record, nl's only played against my towngame once before this that i can recall, and that was rocks

every other time i've played against him i THINK has been a wolfgame

and he's caught me in most of those games, yes

but given current events, i'm not convinced that means he has a good read on me

c4's early progression on me is one of the main reasons why i felt confident about him being a villager throughout d1, FTR. it is true that c4 has not incorrectly read me in a game (yet), and he is actually the most consistent person at reading me out of nearly everyone i've played mafia with, lol

at the time, i thought that the intensity of his early push was really villagery - he silently voted me, got frustrated at being ignored, and then loudly tried to bring attention to his vote on me again. his read did shift without a clear reason, but i didn't find that wolfy because c4 isn't a player (as either alignment) that tends to write out his progressions in excruciating detail

c4's overall trajectory wrt to my alignment would be a really effective way to pocket me if he's a wolf, and it's a strategy i've implemented as a wolf before, but i think he's town

if i had to form a "towncore" right now, it would be arete, vulgard, c4, nutella, and (maybe) sunbae. i've found arete and vulgard villagery on an independent level, and i also trust them to be correct about each other in a world where one of them is a wolf (and i dont think that they're W/W). nutella had a very villagery progression on KZA throughout d1 and has not seemed to struggle with her tone being wolf or with her reads being fluid and evolving like she did in the wolfgames that i've seen from her. sunbae's posts have an earnestness to them that i find villagery and i'm just accepting him as town for now. if he's a wolf pocketing me then w/e

I've personally found Alison to be townie but people keep telling me that the things I'm finding townie are bad reasons to townread her/things she would do as Mafia which makes me doubt my read (this is how I feel about basically every non FoLer that I've tried to read but it's more prominent with Alison)

my belief-in-her-being-town is dropping off the more she doesn't post, 'not posting when you're being suspected' is more common from wolves

your posts are made of post, and that's about all I can come up with

this might be me being dumb but the fact that c4's entire schtick is that progression cases are bad
makes me feel like trying to read him off of progression isnt the way to go

hm

in my experience wolves don't have that sort of abrupt 180-with-no-explanation-whatsoever unless they're really bad at playing scum, like, generally they'll try to at least justify the read change a little bit

do you disagree with that general-statement or are you arguing that c4 is a really unusually bad wolf?

correction nl also briefly played against my towngame in the Org game that happened after rocks, before i subbed out d1

he incorrectly wolfread me in that, though i don't hold it against him because i was in a very weird headspace at the time and probably was playing very atypically

yes and on d1 i was like the first person to point out c4 ws nothing like he was in CoV

im just having second thoughts looking at his progression
hm

in my experience wolves don't have that sort of abrupt 180-with-no-explanation-whatsoever unless they're really bad at playing scum, like, generally they'll try to at least justify the read change a little bit

do you disagree with that general-statement or are you arguing that c4 is a really unusually bad wolf?
I see it more often than you'd expect and not always from bad wolves

frustrating wagon

arete what are your thoughts on like... anything, really?

just general gamestate overview, i guess
I've been having thoughts!!!! if you want specific new thoughts that aren't just the previous thoughts but rephrased slightly differently you're going to need to be specific

right now I'm looking through c4 and SPF's posts to try and verify Dya's progression case on him, it felt a bit agenda-y to me but I think some of that is that I was already villagereading c4. so far I've determined that Dya at the very least didn't leave out important posts in between the ones they quoted but I'm still overall not impressed by it, like I can't speak to c4's meta in particular but most wolves are not so incompetent as to literally just completely forget what their previous reads were.
update

having read through SPF's posts in that time period it's not totally ridiculous for someone to change their mind on her based on them but I don't know what c4 personally finds townie and scummy so I don't know if it's plausible for him to or not

such insight. very wow.

i really relate to the feeling that everyone is kinda just solving by themselves in their own individual corner of the game, and i'd really like to play a role in creating a more cohesive/cooperative environment if i'm still here tomorrow. i think the gamestate is actually perfectly fine for the position we're in, but better cohesion/communication would help a lot

i've been trying my best to get people to talk to me and the results have been very... whelming. dunno if that's a consequence of my thread position or more indicative of the gamestate at large (or if i'm just not asking the right questions)

i think there's a pool of players who have found each other as town that need to be doing more with that than they currently are

30 is a third of your posts in the game on one player who you town read and other people also town read

maybe they are right you should diversify

like arete this is why it took me so long to find you as town this game

cause it feels like you and the other FoL folks have got a nice little reads circle going, and that's fine and good, but i think at this point most people feel pretty decent about you guys and are ready to talk about other people

like, say, the two enormous wagons that you barely have any sort of read on, or any of the other frequently mentioned wagons (dya, zack), or any of the people that people are having trouble nailing down (dizzy, for instance)

it feels like you're primarily talking to and about FoL people and it makes it really hard to know where you stand on the rest of the game

so like

a big part of the reason for that is that I feel like a big part of your reads on each other is based on meta for games I barely looked at, or meta where you've been playing each other for years and know each other's playstyles, and I don't have that, I haven't played more than a handful of games with any of you, I can't engage with 'your approach to the game is subtly different from Congress of Vienna' when the only thing I know about Congress of Vienna is 'Chloe was 3p' and the FoLer copypasta, and the fact that that's such a heavy emphasis this game makes it harder to read the people talking about it (e.g. I can't get a good sense of whether 'x is playing like CoV'/'x is playing in their town meta'/etc. is in good faith or bad faith when I don't know their meta in the first place)

and when I do have reads half the time someone is like 'no but your read is wrong because of their meta'

and even when that's not a factor I'm like 'wow, these sure are reasonable posts, if I didn't know that 90 percent of this playerlist is a strong player as both alignments I would probably find this villagery but it's not out of the range of what a competent wolf could fake'

which, like, it's fine that that's a factor in this game, I'm not going to be like 'meta is bad and evil and you shouldn't ever use it,' but it's making it harder for me, personally, to make reads on non-FoL people and that's not something I can just fix by trying harder

friendo i wasn't IN congress of vienna, i'm as lost on the CoV reads as you are

and in fact i've been trying very very hard this game to fall back on meta reads as little as possible

gavial was an unabashed meta read and my current read on dya is definitely dipping into meta

but i think most of my other reads are pretty focused on what people have posted in the game itself

the fact that you're lumping me in with the CoV-party makes me feel like you're really just. not actually reading my posts? and i don't know if that's true or not, but if it is it needs to be corrected

I'm reading your posts! I found your post joking about CoV being required reading for the class mildly amusing and relatable! but it's not just the CoV takes, it's also the fact that ... most of you have years of experience with each other ... and are drawing from that experience in your reads

Dyslexicon wrote: Fri May 28, 2021 6:10 pm @nutella Can you go through how you thought about Gavial's and KZA's alignment and the relation between these? Because I distinctly remember that the consensus seemed to be that KZA might've TMI-ed Gavial as town. And in general, I think it was pretty obvious the pair did not fit as w/w. Even I, with he little context I had, came to this conclusion. Yet, you seemed to suggest KZA would be scum regardless of Gavial's flip, if I'm not mistaken (as Sunbae showed). Why is this?
I don't remember particularly associating them either way on d1, I felt more strongly that KZA would flip scum and was voting there, but was fine with Gav being chopped. Maybe in retrospect I should have seen the KZA stuff that spewed Gav not w/w with him, but it wasn't on my mind at the time.


Alison's posts still have me concerned -- her view of the game feels limited and unclear.

Appreciating Dizzy's thoughts and the convergence on Alison and bronana as priority suspects works for me. Think Amy is still my #1 choice atm but those are all names I want to see talked about for the chop. Honestly might just go for zack over amy (seeing the amy post about how zack might be deliberately tying himself to her -- I'd probably still want to chop her next if zack is red but would be worth further consideration at least... also i can't even tell if that's a thing anymore or if hes all in on sring her now lol) (alternatively they're still w/w and just both shifting into distancing more now aa)


still reading and condensing into one post

i like c4's read that alison reacted more strongly to being tied to seth than to w/v cases, that could be a real mindset thing, i'm not totally following the whole discussion of the comparison that follows tho

weh at 2193 now i'm appreciating amy expressing those concerns with dya (not defending their townreads, and again not having been super transparent with thoughts itt)


i wonder if i'm better off voting zack bc like, i think he's probably just a wolf, whereas i'm at sort of a weird back-and-forth on amy and dya? with alison just another wrench in things. overall still have amy as a stronger gut wolfread than dya, though i don't hate her recent posts. hrm

amy's readlist in 2233 is very.... suddenly consensusy? i mean that's not necessarily bad. thread state has herself + alison/dya/zack as the main poe rn and it makes sense she'd turn to focusing there as either alignment


let's shake things up a bit [VOTE: bronana] aubergine



re: the most recent discussion: i do wish i felt more cohesion yeah. i think there's sort of nebulously a towncore and nebulously a consensus poe but not a huge amount of cooperation. i apologize for my part in being individualistic (and honestly i might not improve on that much this phase since i'm paying more mind to the postcap until eod). i do feel arete specifically has had a bit more of a narrow focus, and i've still been hesitant to include them fully in my own core. on the meta read stuff, again i apologize for having some of those but i don't think i've solely leaned on them for anyone, i've made reads here pretty mainly focused on people's contributions and engagement in this thread. like, there's plenty to go off of -- not having insights into other ppl's meta is not an excuse to hold back on giving your thoughts on them based on game content
