cuth's post is weird solely because i think ppl should probably have a read on manti
what’s your read on manti
Cuthillius
02-26-2021, 02:30
can you sort the game into each group so i can see what you’re talking about?
uh
i could but i'm not going to
the difference is like you/capage/visor all took hard stances on one or another ahead of the curve
if there's at least one v in gh/dya, and especially if two, wolves are absolutely going to take advantage of the opportunity to back up people's incorrect reads on them and settle the gamestate gently into a confbiased one, but they're rarely going to actually bury them at the start of the phase because they either have to take responsiblity for doing so upon v flips or basically keep their partner from posting better and getting out of reads after mostly being suspected for being Lacking/whatever
the risk/reward is whack, and most people aren't going to do the Plays they'd need to, especially not when we're in this condition already

he's been poking me with a pool noodle exactly like in the other game we just played where he was a wolf and i think his posts are very thin
but he's barely actually gotten engaged in the game

I've actually perfectly followed this line of logic ever since Cuth introduced it and think it makes a good bit of sense.
Esooa can you talk me throught your d1 thoughts on dya?
Not much to say. I agreed that they felt like they didn't want to be here. I thought their read on me was bad and their focus on it was to avoid spew. I also thought Csargo had a few towny posts which I didn't see from Dya so I much preferred Dya at EoD. Today they're at least moving outside of just their read on me but their read on me has honestly just gotten worse and I'm not sure why town!dya wouldn't drop it by now. They didn't even respond iirc to me quoting myself from Ice cream team mafia where I forgot why I voted someone, after saying I didn't actually do that which ??? doesn't feel like fair reevaluation. I'm unsure rn about where I would go if not them today
I think Cuth is not villagery
agree for the most part. Not wolfy but I've not really seen anything from him that makes me get a real feel either way

alright, this makes sense. so you think monty falls into the group of the Not Villagery approach? anyone else?
hype.
I slanked hard this evening finally so I will ISO him in the train tmr morning finally, in about 6 hours from now. If you can tell us about this meanwhile, it would be great
this feels like a really towny post from Rask. I don't think he's been slanking at all and he's generally been getting town read, so for him to be thinking "I've slanked hard" and he needs to put more effort in seems like a genuine desire to solve

Kind of in a weird spot with what I want to do with my vote atm because I think there's a few places I could put it that would shake the game up (in a good way), but at the same time I'm not sure if the game even needs shaking up. We've got Rask's flip pending, and dya could even very well be a hit, and if we just go off the assumption there's one (or more) in that pair that means everything's hunky-dory and we can just keep on doing our thing.
So like, I kind of think we - both me individually and the town as a whole - are spinning our wheels for a while, and while it's kind of annoying I also think it's the smartest option at the moment?
This opinion is subject to change at a moment's notice.
i really like that take from cuth because I definitely felt that it was all basically pre-ordained when I got into the thread last night. I think wolves definitely just wanted to go along

Hey, sorry I haven't been around much today; didn't mean to pull back this much, oops!! I'll be around to hype within a few hours though!!!
i will say i’m slightly weirded out that manti is like... doing things. i think he typically doesn’t give much of a shit as a villager so maybe i should be concerned that he’s at least putting on a front of trying to solve and caring. but i don’t really know where this game lands on that spectrum for him. it doesn’t seem like he cares ~that~ much, just maybe more than usual
meh i dunno, it’s manti. he’s like a rorschach test lol
manti/other can answer this too but do you know if manti prefers wolf/town?
would be nice to get votes down from the non-voters
is there maj?
nope
turning over gh/dya in my mind
i think both of them have had distinctly villagery notes today, but i don't love love either of those but i think there's a good enough chance that either one is v that i'd rather go elsewhere today question mark pending certain people being in thread
monty looks absolutely terrible if they're both villagers, thus my vote there, i think specifically pzelda making the first post about dya being an outed wolf early on d1 and also dunking on gh is probably a fairly good look regardless of gh/dya alignments
don't think the wolves are taking quite as much advantage of town blehness as they could, but maybe that's because we're not on the right tracks and don't have to yet?
which would give me a bit of hope for our chances after we get A Flip
there's a big block of what do with manasi/manti/colonel/dolby
and unless there are at least two wolves in there idk what's going on with this game maybe if gh/dya not w/w
i feel like there was a fairly considerable swing of momentum onto specifically that world today, and i don't think the people like actively championing it are as much to blame as the people who treated it as a sort of implicit assumption
idk
what posts from Dya were distinctly villagery?
the obvious reason would be that dya can post themselves clear easily if they’re villaging and w!gh wouldn’t want them to have the chance
I've not played with them before so ig I kinda expected their day 1 to continue. That makes sense though
manti/other can answer this too but do you know if manti prefers wolf/town?
he’s known more for his wolf game but i have no idea which he enjoys more

honestly I don't like the GH votes at all. I see what people mean that if Dya is a wolf GH is, but the association here is
town!dya=town!GH (he would lynch Dya day 1)
wolf!dya= town/wolf!GH (he could save her, he could just be wrong day 1)
so voting GH before Dya here is just bad, or am I missing something?
Regardless, I don't like the two competing wagons being stagnant and somehow only two votes
Vote:montmorency
fwiw at the time i just voted gh to have a cw to dya because i thought both were wolves but i agree it makes no sense to lunch gh before dya and we definitely aren’t doing that

something something emotions but i think it honestly fits with dya!v i've seen before in a very particular way that i don't really want to go into
the way they've... interacted with people interacting with them this phase
but that's part of why it is imo. He's not caring to spend paragraphs explaining himself and trying to convince people of his opinions. Doesn't really seem to care about pushing the thread one way/his image as he has previously.
hrm. i mean, i think he did in the first part of the day but then kinda gave up on it when it wasn’t really working
i do think him taking a back seat and just letting the thread move where it may is maybe like, vaguely villagery? if i assume w!him would be trying to control the narrative more aggressively. but meh
Cuthillius
02-26-2021, 04:07
i really don’t see gh playing around dya the way he did if he’s a wolf and dya’s a villager. he’s not dumb. if w!gh sees he can lunch one of the best villagers itg D1 he’d be all over that
i disagree with this specific take, but kinda agree at this point that his progression on them would be
unusual
as w/v
would basically require wolves to be in a team mafia sort of position where he's caught out d1, shuffling deck chairs to make it as long as possible, likely thought there's a good chance dya goes over anyway and like
i don't think there are very many players that gh would straight up dunk on 10/10 times if he got the opportunity because he was scared
i do have some concerns about the binary nature of that read over the course of the game but
is a thing
at this point would rather look elsewhere

w!him is not in a playerlist of pushovers and is probably fully aware that that's not a viable long term strategy in any way, and would only probable pursue it if there was no other option/he needed to boost teammates out of danger
i have liked some of the more specific solving and processes i've seen from him today though
but i think reading him off of bigger picture stuff without a wolf flip is probably not the best line to take

Unaccountable mindmelds with GH in late day, but I don't get why he didn't acknowledge that I had voted Csargo for him.
On one hand, if dyachei (or Rask to some extent) is scum, Colonel and Maple need to die, but given the lack of self-pres from either Csargo or dyachei, and the way Rask and Csargo behaved toward dyachei's slot, there's a distinct possibility of all-town wagons.
But don't heal Rask, if applicable.
Rask-town and dyach-scum would be ideal in clearing 5 players till LYLO and guaranteeing a couple scum on Csargo wagon. Table for now.
If all town wagons, Dolbster's attitude toward EOD looks a little PIS.
On night-kill speculation, Sunbae feels more like SPK than a counter-suss kill (if there's a term for it).
im pretty much in the same mindset as i was at the end of day 1;
My lone tinfoil was that sunbae was snowing me and villa read ara too easily along with csargo;
Part of the reason i went CSargo over rasko/dya. I thikn it was possible for csargo to be a wolf in all worlds, and with argo flipping V and sunbae being a V and rasko being poisoned. all the answers are a day phase away for me before i see if i have to completely rethink where i'm at.
One thing that's true is that if rasko is a villa and dya turns out to be a wolf(note: i am currently leaning not eliminating dya this phase) there is no way in a million years i am ever not tunneling the ta-tas off of GH. ITs a thought i can't fully explain but the basic gist that i can relay is that him saying no to dyachei but yes to rasko/csargo and it turns out rasko csargo are villa and dya.
If I was the poisoner I would poison manti/manasi the following phases
Part of the reason I wouldn't want to dig into dya is that I associate them being a wolf with raqsko being a wolf alot so rasko being poisoned lets me peek into that world while i might want to eliminate into another possibility. I might change my mind though but its where im at now
hard defend dya despite being wagon
come into today defending dya
following morning: sure dya can be a wolf i absolutely see it
broad strokes it's a bit weird but i can understand it more with the detail
but there wasn't much in between in terms of his feelings

multiquotes hurrah
those were two examples of the sort of thing i was talking about just now

my poe looks something like [colonel/monty] + [manti/manasi/dolby/eph?/visor??] at this particular instant in time

ebwop
my poe looks something like [colonel/monty] + [manti/manasi/dolby/eph?/visor??] at this particular instant in time
i would be surprised if visor or eph are wolfing, though i guess if dya/gh are v/v they have some wolf equity. but i kinda just think they’re villagers anyway. you don’t?
Cuthillius
02-26-2021, 04:25
a) don't call yourself dumb
b) the multiquotes were things i was collecting to illustrate my point wrt people who weren't committing to gh/dya immediately but kind of reinforcing the position that they should be the poe today and that they were still good pushes from yesterday without getting too much skin in the game, which i think is very >rand w if gh/dya v/v and even mildly >rand w if they're w/v in a lot of situations
c) when i said gh's progression on dya was very binary, i meant that it was either on or off-- he strongly townread them through the beginning of this phase and then very quickly swung over to the other side; i don't think this is necessarily a Bad Look but there are worlds in which it's sort of a necessary evil push and i'm a little concerned about its similarity to his push on lissa last game in the back of my head

i do but i have a hard time coming up with impactful players who could be wolfing beyond the pair, and that list there is... a little uniform for my liking in terms of playerlist composition
visor/eph are both a tier of confidence below most of my other v-reads
that makes more sense, ty
GeneralHankerchief
02-26-2021, 04:30
Not interested in today and I don't particularly feel like sorting into tiers:
[Hally/Esooa/Monty/Ara/pzelda/Ephemeral]
--
Not happening today but might get the STINK EYE depending on how flips go:
[Visor/ColonelBop]
I doubt they're happening today and even if they were, I might not want to go there? Maybe?
[Cuth/Maple/Manasi]
The active question marks
[dya/Dolby]
This list is simultaneously very poor for gamestate and yet the one I feel best about out of the ones I've done itg.
Will try to get a lock-in on Dolby tomorrow morning/afternoon US time. Other slots I want to feel better about and will try to devote time to are Monty, Cuth, (possibly) Eph.

Hard for me to give specifics and I do want to shore up that read tomorrow, but I think he's got the right cocktail of tone/paranoia/doing his own thing going that matches his town game.

I greatly appreciate 'only' 300 posts in 24 hours, OTOH.
But the fact that the D2 activity could have been condensed to 50-100 posts and arrive at the same state is really just due to the lack of good oust options and the divisions among town reads.

02-26-2021, 05:52
Hally and pzelda are my ride or die towns.
Mostly melds so far, but why? When did this happen? I don't think I've seen an explanation.
fwiw i played with v!capage in sf3 and this doesn’t concern me coming from him. he’s kind of like a weathervane. as in, he changes his mind a lot even from post to post because he gets easily influenced by other people’s opinions and his mind seems to go in a lot of different directions. this sort of thing is what kept him in the poe D1 because people tend to find it wolfy, but i think it’s villagery for capage (and maybe even in general). it’s just kinda how he operates and i’m pretty confident he’s a villager here
I agree on the inconsistency/proteanity, but the tone and process feels wrong, though less so over time.
dya, I am really trying to hold back here, because I've certainly had my share of games where I just Haven't Had It as town and know that this could come from either alignment. I think that your RL demands are impacting your play and your posting would be different regardless, and I'm trying not to make things even more frustrating for you.
But you just feel super out of vibe with the thread and not in a way that's NAI to me. Like, you see the votes and focus on you; secondarily, you've had me as steady town to varying degrees over the course of the game. You and I are being linked together and we're taking the most heat of anybody ITT. From your POV, where you're a) town and b) correct, you should be seeing that things are about to get disastrous here if things hold their current course, but I'm not seeing any inkling of real urgency or fire from you. I really am trying to picture myself as somebody who just doesn't have time and is doing what I can, but I still think that if this was true, and if you were town, it'd be coming out differently.
Like you've expressed skepticism about Hally but the most you can do with it is "well I need more time" with nothing super concrete about it besides the fact that they get sheepier as town, as time progresses.
Your biggest push and focus has been on Esooa so far, and from my POV it's mostly focusing the issue of "doesn't remember why she voted who she did on d1" which just... doesn't do anything for me.
I truly am sorry if you're town here and I'm just piling on to what's already being a tough gameday for you, but right now I'm just not seeing enough.
Granted, in a GH-dya world this is textbook, commendable, distancing.
Yeah, this is what I wanted to see. Honestly, I'm moving among several possible worlds right now and it makes my reads super flippy-floppy. But I wanted to see you suspect Visor, because after agreeing with Visor I realized, that this is the only path scum Visor could take after gunning for Amy/Rask yesterday without looking sus. I'm still not decided whether I want to go with you scum, Visor scum or someone else, but I'm glad to see this and it makes the game less black and white.
Ofc, your move is defensive here and that makes it more difficult to read, but it also makes perfect sense to be suspicious of Visor's push in your position as town.
I hope my words are clear enough for everyone to understand them. If not, I think this is one thing I can easily reword or expand on.
Nothing worth talking about.
I'm trying to untilt myself and get back to trying to find more town, please don't ask me to follow up on this.
Kind of in a weird spot with what I want to do with my vote atm because I think there's a few places I could put it that would shake the game up (in a good way), but at the same time I'm not sure if the game even needs shaking up.

1 of Maple-Manasi

The fact that Monty is almost exclusively speaking about old games is getting me nervous. The fact he misnamed that awesome game I hosted last year ( and Visor helped to build) makes him a tempting yeet target :creep: (not in GH/Dya territory rn, but still)
You just brought up Star Trek and Stormtossed, but anyway Ctrl-F the thread for "team" or "rocks" for starters.

And yet:

keks
It doesn't sound like you've quite pegged what you're responding to in my post. But to expand on what I was saying earlier, which I had also clarified (like, what I post is neither complicated nor a lot to read), if Dya flips town - ~50/50 IMO - then the best remaining hope for Visor's GH suss is the GH-Dolb tinfoil. And I call it a tinfoil because in that world it feels like GH-Dolb team should be doing more than mildly rubbing off one another - it doesn't look enough like power scumming either separately or together in that hypothetical. And GH-Dolb should be a strong enough team to be less subtle. I see a couple players are at least sounding out the possibility, but it's what analysis Visor should be diving into.
i’m worried the gh/dya/visor/(rask) group are all villas and the wolves are just letting them turn on each other while they sit there doing nothing
if i entertain that world, monty feels like a wolf who’s kind of watching the world burn and roasting smores on the flames. just kinda the vibe i get from his posts today
Oh, I'm definitely in a wait-and-see mode here. I don't trust any of y'all.
Though I've been surprisingly vibing with GH for several days.

Um, yes, I liked it so much that I quoted it myself and typed out that I liked it in my own post right above yours. :laugh4: :laugh4: :laugh4:

I can't like this post. weird :lol: (I will finish catching up and come back to your post if it feels needed Monty)

honestly I don't like the GH votes at all. I see what people mean that if Dya is a wolf GH is, but the association here is
town!dya=town!GH (he would lynch Dya day 1)
wolf!dya= town/wolf!GH (he could save her, he could just be wrong day 1)
so voting GH before Dya here is just bad, or am I missing something?
Regardless, I don't like the two competing wagons being stagnant and somehow only two votes

I agree with this too. I am annoyed with my vote rn. Doesn't like GH currently but we aren't hero yeeting him.

I've hated Cuth's spaghetti plate post, but actually liking and melding with the post where he details probable v/w mindsets around the GH/Dya duo.
So I think I am not going there today (or ever lol). Still need to catch up a couple of pages.
Now what I really need to do is think about GH/Dya again. I've been liking Dya's posts more. I have ambivalent feelings about GH.
Looking back at the game thread from the last 24 and up untill Monty wagon took off, I think GH/Dya are prolly vv. maybe.

I'm going through the game starting from EoD 1, since I've forgotten stuff and there's only a few hundred posts anyway; will be around for the next few hours, at least!!!!!
It seems pretty quiet anyway, going to try and refrain from flooding in the meantime though... probably sticking to conclusions!!

Arapocalypse
02-26-2021, 10:56
Reading through EoD, starting from ~4 hours before EoD (#961, I'm on 80ppp):
Thoughts going into this are that Csargo was the top suspicion if not top wagon for most of EoD; I'm not sure how real people thought the EoD was? Suspicion on him was fairly strong, though it's fair that someone else could still have gone over if some people (including me) had moved at the last few minutes!!
Liked various Dolby takes and things, felt like him trying to consider people from different angles (see: GH read) was done in a fairly towny fashion!!!! Also, real thoughts on Csargo ~15 minutes before EoD, feel like dya could have actually gone over there!
Ephemeral is actually feeling fairly decent in general questioning-time? Take this with a grain of salt because Ephemeral's pretty good at posting as mafia; actually, hold this read in general!!! Lowkey dislike dya's response, but that's more shrug; expecting stuff from today will be more useful anyway!!
Manasi's re-entrance to the thread seems okay? I was going to go back and add more stuff here, except there's not much about this EoD to say; quick takes were given with not much done with it, not feeling strongly either way because yeah that's how popping in at EoD goes... Would maybe lean this very slightly town for trying to express interested in an EoD like this? Would want to look over again and maybe move up if the wagons turn out to be v/v/v!!!!
GeneralHankerchief read is complicated; I generally do like the way it feels like he's got Real Thoughts in posts and trying to reach out to people like Ephemeral... however, when considering this read I've realized that I may be comparing this too closely to the recent mafia game of his that I saw!! Still though, looking at the general cadence of the GH/Ephemeral interaction (minus a certain phrase), it feels more along the lines of a v/v interaction in how the reads/thoughts are exchanged, feels overall genuine!!
Visor/Ephemeral were sort of just floating around for quite a few posts, trying to poke people to do things which felt very lightly good!!!! (Yes they can do it as mafia, but it feels good here fight me!) On second thought... Visor literally just disappeared for the last 13 minutes straight of EoD? Which is not actually a good look, but Ephemeral can be okay!!
Not doing Maple thoughts, that's complicated!!!!
Noting people who said that they didn't like/were meh about wagons: Bop/Maple/me/I swear there were more people? Also, I forgot how high dya's wagon got; not really sure what to think about that!!!
Overall thoughts from EoD: liked Dolby/Ephemeral/maybe GH, Manasi fence but slightest town, Maple fence, dya/Visor fence but slight mafia!!

i’m worried the gh/dya/visor/(rask) group are all villas and the wolves are just letting them turn on each other while they sit there doing nothing
if i entertain that world, monty feels like a wolf who’s kind of watching the world burn and roasting smores on the flames. just kinda the vibe i get from his posts today
There are probably max 2 wolves in that group so any way you split it half the wolf team at least is somewhere outside. They are either not around or doing much to defend (manasi,Dolby,maple(applies to d1 more so than d2),mont) or are piling on (a host of others in spicier worlds)
you say “if I entertain that world....” when really we are already in that world.
With the day over half over lettuce go back and see who is focusing just on dya/gh/rask and who isn’t. Feels like it would be cromulent.
Note: I’m doing this but not at 5am, maybe after brekky when I wake up in a few hours. Had a nightmare and decided to punish myself and look at this thread in the meantime. Not a criticism of this game or the players but if the game of mafia asa whole

02-26-2021, 11:15
i dunno, my read on gh is kinda inextricably linked to my read on dya at this point. and i’m doubting whether dya is a wolf after their posts today, which in turn is making me doubt whether gh is a wolf. if they’re w/v i don’t think w!gh passes up the chance to push v!dya over D1 because lunching a strong villager like dya before they can get into the game and post themselves clear would be pretty huge for the wolves so i don’t really see gh taking the line he did with dya D1 if he’s a wolf and dya is a villager. he would just lunch dya imo
on the other hand, if dya is a wolf i find it hard to believe gh isn’t also a wolf, but i want to at least explore the possibility they’re v/v and i’ve been wrong on them
What about dya’s posting today has changed your opinion

Anyways, moving on to SoD...
Reading these Hally posts and recalling how Hally played day 1, I'm putting them in my pile of just not reconsidering unless necessary in lategame, at least another day or two!!! Feel like a lot of their posts are towny to a very consistent degree regardless of anything else going on in the thread/reads on them/whatever's going on, fairly comfortable with this!!
On another note, I'm not bothering to alignment-read Raskolnikov and am lowkey assuming he's town here; if I'm wrong, then I'm okay with things being easier and solving in the more difficult world at the moment!! (That being said, my actual read on him is towny, though it doesn't matter!)
dyachei's discussion of things/bringing things up feels... sort of weird? For instance, talking about the Raskolnikov read/the ISO; aside from not being sure why they put down Raskolnikov thoughts when they're already poisoned, just feels like there's a distinction between the ISO thoughts and actual interaction between the thread which means something, probably? I may come back to this later!!!
Second readthrough of GH's posts feels... actually good/consideration hype stuff, better than I expected? While knowing that he's aware of how staying in the thread a bit longer is something that people sometimes find town, I feel like the way he actually executed that at SoD was a truly genuine one, where he was actually felt the pressing need to clarify how EoD went down from how he was reading the game and stuff!!
On the other hand, I feel like Bop's actively pocketing me here, 1236 in particular; still leaving him in my towns though!!!
Going back to dya... not great at reading this posting, will say that Hally/dya aren't w/w at the very least? On another note, were the dya/GH w/w associations serious? I'm assuming not because Visor is the one who said it, but just in case, I don't think they are w/w either!! Thinking that the main thing regarding dya that I have issues with is that yes, they're doing things of their own volition and stuff here; however, it majorly pings me when the most major things that stand out conviction-wise when considering their ISO is defense of their slot versus other slots, which I'm not a fan of!!
Feeling like this Esooa/dya interation is mostly shrug, maybe slightly townier for Esooa but it feels really not that difficult to do on this train of thought!!!
More comfortable with Ephemeral, not much to say; also keeping in mind that I could be getting pocketed here but is fine for now, I guess!!
I'm breaking these up into 80-post chunks, as a note; will consolidate when I'm caught up!!!

turning over gh/dya in my mind
i think both of them have had distinctly villagery notes today, but i don't love love either of those but i think there's a good enough chance that either one is v that i'd rather go elsewhere today question mark pending certain people being in thread
monty looks absolutely terrible if they're both villagers, thus my vote there, i think specifically pzelda making the first post about dya being an outed wolf early on d1 and also dunking on gh is probably a fairly good look regardless of gh/dya alignments
don't think the wolves are taking quite as much advantage of town blehness as they could, but maybe that's because we're not on the right tracks and don't have to yet?
which would give me a bit of hope for our chances after we get A Flip
there's a big block of what do with manasi/manti/colonel/dolby
and unless there are at least two wolves in there idk what's going on with this game maybe if gh/dya not w/w
i feel like there was a fairly considerable swing of momentum onto specifically that world today, and i don't think the people like actively championing it are as much to blame as the people who treated it as a sort of implicit assumption
idk
Lumping me in with manasi/manti/Dolby is bananas
You can be wary of me but not for the reasons that would put me with that grouping.
If there is a wolf in dya/gh and montecorenot is a villa there is nothing that will drag me away from the fiery he’ll tunnel that I will have on cuth. For this post.

pzelda still up there in my own townreads, feels like his re-evaluation over the night felt real, even if I don't agree with half of it... why is Dolby mafia? Not really getting the suspicion here!!! Need to pull out a certain post of his after this post though, hang on!!
Raskolnikov, I made my first SoD1 post, refreshed the thread for a minute or two with no further posts, then forced myself to do other stuff for a while... fearing it would be just me refreshing a dead thread for half an hour or something silly!!!!
Visor's push on GH feels very ??? I gather that he was actually serious about the GH/dya w/w association, which... ?? A lot of this feels more like him coming to conclusions and I'm not really seeing the thought processes behind them, which is making me doubt that they exist!!
Yes, I do usually exclamation mark hype!!!!!! Also, I meant that before day 1 started I was going to make a case on GH to post at SoD, but decided not to... all before the day started!!!
I had noticed that Montmorency referred frequently to older games, but to be honest literally everyone does that so I just shrugged it off; is it something which is overly noticeable/that you think is mafia-indicative, though? Which... hmm; am lowkey needing to refresh my read on him because I've noticed his posts in the past while just haven't had major thoughts about them? Some have felt sort of waterflowy, but I've somewhat dismissed it because part of it is also due to the multi-quote formatting!! Anyways, will probably ISO him after!!!
Esooa's suspicion of pzelda is, while I don't agree with it, something which I think I do get the reasoning for at least; feels fairly reasonable I think? Also liked general scope of stuff, don't have much else to say about this one!!
GH's 1352 is solid, very hype; I agree with... a scary high amount of it?! Which in itself may be a little concerning, but I'm down with it for now!!!!!!
dya's 1355 is one which I'm particularly disliking; sort of annoying because I do distinctly recall dya doing that sort of one-liners as town previously though!!!

I'm catching up. But the most interesting thing during the eod was Dolby voting Rask. Over night I came to a conclusion that Montomercy is town and Dolby scum, but that vote threw me off. I'm also interested to see more reasons from Rask than vague meta reasons for scumreading Dolby. I kinda think that so far it's in possible distancing territory, but I'm not willing to bet my pants on it.
I quite liked Dya's entrance today and the way wagons were yesterday suggest that she's more likely town than scum. Again, Dya avoiding the game d1 is a typical wolfy behaviour regardless of her irl circumstances. I think that her posts being more focused on irl circumstances makes her more sus than just not being here.
More later.
Capage, what does the bolded mean? You said that you liked Dya in your first sentence, then transitioned smoothly directly into calling them suspicious in the next two sentences?

fwiw i played with v!capage in sf3 and this doesn’t concern me coming from him. he’s kind of like a weathervane. as in, he changes his mind a lot even from post to post because he gets easily influenced by other people’s opinions and his mind seems to go in a lot of different directions. this sort of thing is what kept him in the poe D1 because people tend to find it wolfy, but i think it’s villagery for capage (and maybe even in general). it’s just kinda how he operates and i’m pretty confident he’s a villager here
Pulling this post out to say that this is extremely accurate, and I had a solid chunk of time suspecting him for that, in that game!!!! But anyways, based on what I recall from meta-diving several games though, the influence thing is very real!!
I don't think it's necessary something that's villagery in general per se, but I do think this/the way he's approached it in this game is very towny for him here!!

If dya=w
We had v/w/v wagons with gh pushing the villas and defending the wolf. Nothing he has said or done makes that look better for him.
If rask=w
Similar as above but GH would look not bad because he was on raskd1. I would be concerned about the world he vocally pushed a wolf but voted villas , something I love to do as a wolf, but I wouldn’t be on his ass and he’d be higher. Possible he could be a wolf but less likely
If both=w
Gh ended on a villa when we had w/v/w wagons despite pushing one of the wolves. Absolutely a wolf move. I wouldn’t be surprised if people thought I was a wolf more in this world too because I pushed both wolves vocally and voted csargo. Definitely gh could be a wolf

Arapocalypse
02-26-2021, 12:06
uh
i could but i'm not going to
the difference is like you/capage/visor all took hard stances on one or another ahead of the curve
if there's at least one v in gh/dya, and especially if two, wolves are absolutely going to take advantage of the opportunity to back up people's incorrect reads on them and settle the gamestate gently into a confbiased one, but they're rarely going to actually bury them at the start of the phase because they either have to take responsiblity for doing so upon v flips or basically keep their partner from posting better and getting out of reads after mostly being suspected for being Lacking/whatever
the risk/reward is whack, and most people aren't going to do the Plays they'd need to, especially not when we're in this condition already
Okay so this answers a lot of what I was just asking, ignore that!!!!
I guess my difference in how I'm reading this is that I feel like Visor's push on GH felt like not a town push, where maybe my mindmelding with GH is confbiasing me a little, but... he was one of the first on there and yet from how the thread seems to be moving, I'm not getting the sense that he'd get a lot of heat from it if GH is town!!!
Feels like maybe I'm tunneling a bit, but I'm still ??? at the push and just overall... assumptive stuff when we're on day 2 and everything is still very not set in stone!!! Also no, your previous post explaining it doesn't count if you're talking about your SoD post, Visor!!!!!

Capage, what does the bolded mean? You said that you liked Dya in your first sentence, then transitioned smoothly directly into calling them suspicious in the next two sentences?
I mean, did I miss something here or what?
I think that i tried to capture the dissonance between some of her posts feeling good and her overall activity feeling scummy.
Also, regarding Dolby, I need to dive into it. I think his posts look good, almost too good for overall impact he had. Also, him relying on meta a lot is something what triggers alarms for me. Basically, there's more confidence in his posts than his thread presence suggests.

Are you solely working off of results here, then? I'm probably not going to engage with that because... pre-flip associatives that'd probably involve reading EoD1 thrice, and no!!
His posts today and overall solving have approached the game in a fairly towny manner... an example of this is the dya read development, which I actually think is quite reasonable in light of Csargo flipping town yesterday!!!

Hi Ephemeral/Bop!!!!!
You only got me for half a second there Bop, before I remembered what time it is; GH is (almost) never up this early!!!
Quick question: do people actually think a dya/GH w/w world could exist here? Because... no, don't really think that's a thing!!
I think it's possible, but I could easily see v/w too

02-26-2021, 12:27
Are you solely working off of results here, then? I'm probably not going to engage with that because... pre-flip associatives that'd probably involve reading EoD1 thrice, and no!!
His posts today and overall solving have approached the game in a fairly towny manner... an example of this is the dya read development, which I actually think is quite reasonable in light of Csargo flipping town yesterday!!! General stuff that has taken new information into account along with other mindmeldy things; not something I'm extremely confident about, but I feel stronger about it than making pre-flip associations!!!!

I don’t understand how this is a question.
The question was to Manti, asking about the not w/w alignment and his independent Visor read!!
I'm assuming people have those, and are not just sheeping others calling him town!!!!

Also I recognize visor could be a wolf but I vibed with him day 1 so while sure he’s a good player, nothing has happened yet to make me question it so ima ride with that
Can you elaborate on the vibing with him on day 1 and why you think he's town from that?

I think that i tried to capture the dissonance between some of her posts feeling good and her overall activity feeling scummy.
Also, regarding Dolby, I need to dive into it. I think his posts look good, almost too good for overall impact he had. Also, him relying on meta a lot is something what triggers alarms for me. Basically, there's more confidence in his posts than his thread presence suggests.
Huh, okay?
I'm pretty sure I meant to talk about Montmorency, when I talked about the person referring to meta a lot!!!

Official Tally as of #893

Ok, I'm starting reading here. Colonel on Csargo looks like possible wolf positioning, but let's overlook that. If I recall it correctly, Bop suspected Csargo years before voting him.
So, other wagons and non-voters. I think dya was active enough to vote at this point. I think her focus on defensing herself is a bad look and still might be the best lunch today. I would expect 1 or 2 wolves in throwaway votes too.
Rask being town or scum is important here. Town rask makes dya's wagon very likely pure. That would mean the other 1-2 wolves are in Dolby, Monty, Visor. All of this fits with my previous reads btw.
Not much else to take from this.

I think it’s a wolfy question from someone reading the game from a villager perspective. Not reading visor villa but reading visor rask as not w/w. It might be possible but it’s painfully clear why people would think it’s not the case
ColonelLubriderm
02-26-2021, 12:34
Can you elaborate on the vibing with him on day 1 and why you think he's town from that?
I can quote my posts from day 1 about why I liked him for dropping a dumpster on rask’s slot that put heat on them in the first place if you want
I domt really want to
Out of laziness more than anything
But I'll give the cliff notes. Sadly, I don't have time to actually make it sound balling like I'd like
Esooa is in the game and posting. They have like the third or fourth most posts? They're claiming to have read and reread the game.
They post reads. The details are sparse but clustered. Village reads are easy. You've read the game, they look nice.
Their push on me.
Only 1 wolf read, and it's an easy consensus one to make.
The only one, but the sources cited are all very early into the thread. All posts cited are before post 200. In my experience, this (claim to read everything, out reads, find a rational in the beginning then make vague gestures for the rest)
Typically comes from wolves.
I do it. Others do it. It's a sign sign the shit you're saying is bullshit. It's not uncommon, and their read on me feels precisely like that. Their reads are nonoffensive and basic.
Ultimately, the read pings me. If it were d2 in a mash I'd do my song and dance of:
"Double down your read on me or rescind it or I'll [negative action/ITA/etc.] On you"; in mountainous desperado, I'd say "either shoot me or I'll shoot you", like with Para.
That's my general feeling at the moment.
I feel like this part is somehow wolfy from Maple.

Still mulling over the Visor read of Ampharos in my head; intially I was mostly shrug about it because I just feel like it's reading into it more than it is actually alignment-indicative!!! On second thought, I guess I somewhat like some of the nuance in it? General scope of the read, just sort of early but also I just personally don't really get into reads like that that early, but I think the way Visor approached it in general felt decently, also when factoring in the way he was talking about it before getting into it as though it was literal fact and stuff... I just don't necessarily agree with the case!!
Not really sure how comprehensible that was, but I've been staring at this post for literal ages now, so yeah!!!!!
Tldr re:visor
I vibed with visor for this more than you and think it’s why most people have them as not w/w
Thinking about things holistically
It's probably <rand to vote people who my feeling is "distrust"; it's probably <rand to vote people who my feelings is "forgettable.
I suppose, I should vote someone else? Idk, might vanity vote and ghost the eod; I think we might be staying late in class today, and it could go through eod
I don't find the wording of this post and how it's connected with slank cover towny at all.

Not Voting: Maple

And yeah, this votecount looks back for GH in that regard.
Vote: Rask
for now
Wagons:
Rask:
+ Decent D1 arguments against Amp, flip has much assoc equity
- Traditionally subs get a reprieve, and content-wise I've never had anything against Amp
Csargo:
+ Not a bad wagon makeup, decent arguments against on paper
- I want to ISO Star Trek D1 for the complete picture on Csargo, present it for D2, also I like to give Csargo a break
0 vig candidate
Dyachei: GH has it right that the dyachei push is the amy push but less of everything
My instinct with this kind of post, where are top wagon mildly defends another top wagon, is that if Csargo is scum dyachei has a high probability of being anti-spewed (i.e. not paired).
Interestingly, Rask/Amp is doing the same near above this post. Grapes are fermenting.

just because i didnt push dya with the same extent that i pushed ampharos (or gh -> but id argue i pushed dya more than i pushed gh!)

GH made rask a competing wagon and then switched to Csargo, when it looked like dya's the lunch.
Bop established Csargo as a leading wagon (third vote). During eod he switched to Rask, but when he noticed that it put Dya in lead, because of other changes, he switched back. Like the way they both danced around the wagon makes them possible dya associates.
But I don't think it's not that damming.

They're individual eod reads. You can see my reasoning for Maple few posts back. Monty could be the one actually trying to save Dya. His votes suggest it more than GH's or Bop's. You're partially there, because of your low key vote on Dya and that I find your moves to fit scummy patterns. Basically, with your Amy read you put yourself in a difficult position as scum and the way you moved onto GH feels like a logical way to avoid pressure from that previous push. I might be wrong, but I don't think I usually struggle to find you in games at cfc.
Don't worry about the vote itself too much. I probably will end up voting dya, it's just too boring for now and I want to voice my suspicion.
vote: esooa actually for now

...Yeah, I'm not really sure if that helped either!!! I suppose the Csargo wagon is the one I'm most concerned about reads-wise? I don't mean my reads, but more in the sense of my reads, and in the sense that worldbuilding would be weird; not my strong suit!!
I do vaguely recall me/Sunbae starting the Csargo wagon, independently!!!
Also I'm skipping ISOing for the moment, there's just... a lot of stuff!!
Also, I should say that I operate under an assumption that Rask is town a lot rn. If I'm wrong, Visor's probably good and this town might need a strong leader in Visor/GH later. This is why a possible healer might need to let Rask die regardless of his activity today.

Sorry, I feel bad that I've not been able to contribute much but nothing has really changed for me based on posts in thread and I've not had the time to reread anything the past bit. Dya has done basically nothing, Manti has done basically nothing, so I'm sorta just waiting for that to change/a flip.
Have anything you want to talk about?
very much hate Visor on this page (60ppp (why isn't there a 50) starts at 1621)
i truly, truly don't understand putting me in a wolf list with dyachei

Vote: dyachei
vote: esooa actually for now
See you at EOD or not
Not quite seeing where to spoiler these quotes but it shouldn't be too bad
anyways, Visors very defensive and tries to push himself as being anti-associated with Dya, saying too that voting him over Dya is bonkers if you think they're possibly w/w. I don't like these points on their own because the defensiveness feels out of place, but particularly because I don't think a vote on Dya is all that clearing if she's wolf. Dya slanked hard enough and was scum read hard enough that you're definitely not going to be going out of your way to defend her as wolf.
But then after all this, Visor votes Dya, who he strongly scum reads, then moves to me instead, on the same page someone pointed out the exact same argument he's giving applies to myself (my vote on Dya)
So I don't really feel like he's fairly reading or really believes his argument, or vote
Ok, GH and Bop kinda look bad from the eod, but reading it as a whole, my hottake on whole mafia team would be: Visor, Monty, Maple, Dya.

I've like capages recent posting a lot, and this is the team Visor specifically had his !!! response to
and based on individual reads alone, I wouldn't be surprised if these 4 have 3 mafia tbh
i have technically read them but i have no thoughts
wheres your head at bop
dya/gh/dolby/esooa
this is the way
And with that in mind, rereading the page prior I once again dislike it incredibly
Visor says he's read Dya's posts but has no thoughts which I feel like he probably ought to have some kind of thoughts about; it reminds me a lot of Cuth's point that not committing here is >rand!wolf
Ara, meanwhile, is questioning whether Dya/GH is actually w/w. Bop explains, which I have no problems with, but Visor cheer leading him on, not directly involving himself there, and asking him his thoughts then giving a team COMPLETELY different from where Capage got to feels very icky
Ara is town for raisins but I'm sure I'll figure out if I'm wrong soon enough lol
I'm not sure how to talk about my feelings toward dya without coming off like a dick lol
Theyre almost certainly dying today so I'm not particularly fussed
Someone tried to ask me about my eod at some point
I was pretty explicitly sheeping sunbae, the person I expressed any amount of trust for. Sheeping good players typically gets me pretty good results, sadly not today.
Cuth just feels like he's constantly vomiting spaghetti, it's pretty funny all things considered.
I don't have new feelings about esooa despite their posting this page; I don't really care, its whatever.
Not quite seeing where to spoiler these quotes but it shouldn't be too bad
anyways, Visors very defensive and tries to push himself as being anti-associated with Dya, saying too that voting him over Dya is bonkers if you think they're possibly w/w.

I think the amount of info we'll have if either dying slot flips w is extremely high, and if both flip v that's okay too.
Thinking it over, if both flip village, I'm looking at:
An eod1 that doesn't matter; a d2 that doesn't matter; something about sunbae dying and being 0/3 if I recall their list correctly
The last point doesn't feel all that likely actually, but we'll see

GH made rask a competing wagon and then switched to Csargo, when it looked like dya's the lunch.
Bop established Csargo as a leading wagon (third vote). During eod he switched to Rask, but when he noticed that it put Dya in lead, because of other changes, he switched back. Like the way they both danced around the wagon makes them possible dya associates.
But I don't think it's not that damming.

Lumping me in with manasi/manti/Dolby is bananas
You can be wary of me but not for the reasons that would put me with that grouping.
If there is a wolf in dya/gh and montecorenot is a villa there is nothing that will drag me away from the fiery he’ll tunnel that I will have on cuth. For this post.
In b4 cuth is the poisoner
i mean
i don't think you've been particularly villagery at all; it's not a ding on your reputation to be grouped with those people but just a matter of "everyone else has actually done things that make me feel some flavor of good about them"
i think you're usually a wolf in gh/dya v/v worlds

I kind of want to kill Dolby here but the left brain is telling me that dya is the better chop for gamestate reasons. This isn't merely the dreaded "infochop" speaking: if dya's situation was reversed with, say, Rask's (who has been townie imo) then I'd probably be able to talk myself down from seeing all the d1 wagons through, but the bottom line for me is that I'm just not able to get there on dya being town.
I still kind of want to kill Dolby anyway and despite this.

it has everything to do with 2 of them are mostly non present in activity/reads and the third who was non present but has actually picked up but manti says wild shit as either alignments that are things people would say "a wolf wouldnt do that" just to fuck with them.

Can you elaborate on the bolded please? What do you think the mafia agenda currently is? Would be interested in general gamestate thoughts as well beyond that!!!
nothing more concrete than "i don't think the big pushers and shovers have many wolves in them yet we're also not very coordinated and not very locked in"
but that could either be wolves being in the low impact category already or being the people who are in the middle and just standing back a little and letting us dig our own graves
agenda is probably just push our chaos in the right direction, we're spread out enough that it's not a matter of changing wagons to villagers at this point as much as subtle pushes and pulls away from anyone who is a wolf and in our poe
general gamestate idk i've laid out most of my thoughts already

yeah i acknowledge that you've contributed a lot more to the game than anyone else in that category by a decent margin and i also think the stuff you have done is pretty lackluster esp if gh/dya v

again, this is almost entirely a hypothetical gh/dya v/v thing, which /shrug
but
the way you've oriented your reads around that and not really considered looking outside of it and bolstered your position through interactions with visor, who's more generally townread
feels a little... passive in a game that already seems stagnant?
like
i can get the idea of "we need to resolve these slots" but you've neither personally invested heavily in that stance or done that much to interact with and try to find either as villagers, but your posts feel like you're egging the people who do strongly believe on from the sidelines
which, again, IF they are villagers, is a bad look in my eyes
i think i'm more inclined to actually yeet in gh/dya than i was yesterday but stuff like what you're doing is still giving me cold feet

What makes dolby not rand
Day1 i had somethign that i read as villagy
day 2 through the times i've skimmed the thread I have not noticed his presence.
The drop off from day 1 to day2 is something that concerns me.
However, 2 things, he wasnt super involved day 1 but at least i had something i thought was villagy. Second thing, there is a chance i missed his posts today and he has done something that would make this not applicable.
will let you know after i finsih rereading
ColonelLubriderm
02-26-2021, 19:43
however part 2:
thirdly, the last post doesnt make him lock wolf, just nudges it so its not rand anymore.
ColonelLubriderm
02-26-2021, 19:48
another reason we *Maybe* shouldnt eliminate into gh/dya
between them and rasko there is probably 2 wolves max.
That means outside of them there are 2-3 wolves.
This way, whoever is a villa in gh/dya(and maybe even both) can work with everyone and try to hang some woofers.

Dude there was hydra game on MU a few months ago that Zack and I were mafia in and it was just an absolutely miserable experience. A lot of stupid crap happened in that game and we basically had to claim vig (in a semi-open setup) EOD2 to head off a CFD after our main targets that round also claimed PRs (isn't that annoying when that happens).
We managed to survive the round, but we knew our claim made it so we were 100% getting blasted by the real vig that night, and both of us were just so utterly relieved that we didn't have to even fake it anymore - that feeling was probably one of my top personal moments in a mafia game in 2020.

I was pretty explicitly sheeping sunbae, the person I expressed any amount of trust for. Sheeping good players typically gets me pretty good results, sadly not today.

Going over my GH read, I feel... not necessarily as confident about it as I was this morning, even if that wasn't particularly confident; probably still not voting him today but is fine as a counterwagon!!

I say this because i've wanted to take out rask/dya /csargo yesterday and saying im just glomming onto it today is bananas.
maybe i am unclear in what i say or you are selectively remembering things or not reading everythiung but what you are saying is so far from the case i can't believe it is real
also monte was talkign about pushing me and someone else because the wagons are v/v/v at start of day so im unsure at the glomming onto killing both you are getting from him. Also he has a coupel posts where he pings out GH asking why he never reacdted to them which i find are not w/w. but your gh read may have changed so thats moot
ColonelLubriderm
02-26-2021, 21:42

im pretty much in the same mindset as i was at the end of day 1;
My lone tinfoil was that sunbae was snowing me and villa read ara too easily along with csargo;
Part of the reason i went CSargo over rasko/dya. I thikn it was possible for csargo to be a wolf in all worlds, and with argo flipping V and sunbae being a V and rasko being poisoned. all the answers are a day phase away for me before i see if i have to completely rethink where i'm at.
One thing that's true is that if rasko is a villa and dya turns out to be a wolf(note: i am currently leaning not eliminating dya this phase) there is no way in a million years i am ever not tunneling the ta-tas off of GH. ITs a thought i can't fully explain but the basic gist that i can relay is that him saying no to dyachei but yes to rasko/csargo and it turns out rasko csargo are villa and dya.
If I was the poisoner I would poison manti/manasi the following phases
Part of the reason I wouldn't want to dig into dya is that I associate them being a wolf with raqsko being a wolf alot so rasko being poisoned lets me peek into that world while i might want to eliminate into another possibility. I might change my mind though but its where im at now
I didnt even finish the GH thought in my previous post due to frothing at the thought of tunneling on GH, but i think the gist can be gotten
again we're talking about a very specific idea here
which is a couple of villagers coming into today being rather confident one or the other of gh/dya are wolves, and then wolves being >rand in the group that gets in line behind them and endorses those worlds without putting anything on the line, and the post above is a fine example
while you've said you weren't in favor of going dya today you also haven't really put up that much resistance to the idea of them being a wolf and you've said you were super stoked to tunnel gh and then didn't really tunnel gh much at all
which also aligns with a general swing in thread consensus about gh
i'm not saying it's a Wolf Tell i've just been trying to explain a conceptual idea and keep having to reiterate it because apparently i'm not making it clear enough and/or people want to draw weird conclusions from it or think i mean stuff i don't
the difference between you and monty is that his posts on the topic just look bad regardless of alignment, whereas yours are fine
and the most anyone's said about him in defense is "well sure but doesn't he normally have bad takes"
which is frankly underwhelming
gh or dya flipping v here would just snuff out the already weak enthusiasm of the town to a degree
do i have any real level of confidence on monty flipping v? no, of course not, but i'm hard pressed to come up with anything better here
i think overall our core is mostly fine
i have lingering concerns about
i wrote a couple of names and backspaced all of them
because i have lingering concerns about most people in this game
but we need a wolf flip and even then we only really win if at least 1-2 of the people in the obvious slank pool is a wolf
