So seeing GH go and quote all of Esooa's posts to highlight that the read wasn't based on much in the game just felt extra to me instead of just shrugging and seeing what else happened/any follow ups/etc. My gut reaction was that it was meant to look good instead of convince us of anything. I don't know how much I still feel that way but that's where my head was at. :toilet:

Some brief context: GH + team of friends randed mafia in team mafia, hard tunneled 1 (obvious) town all day with a townie or two on the side which got vigged that night... and were also essentially treated as outed mafia for ??? reasons the next day!!

I guess it does feel a bit overly tryhard? Though I don't really know about you, but I don't feel like I was being convinced of anything, though that could just be me!!!

Big shrug, intriguing thoughts though!!

Also I really want to townread this why are all your posts so warm and cozy-feeling!!!!!!!

It's the avatar, too!!!!

what’s your read on dolby?

I've only seen him scum once, a year ago, and he was the last maf standing, so he must have been pretty good. Can't recall anything of immediate application. Ask Visor, he's the one who caught him.

Fun fact: I was going to make a case on GH at SoD based on something funny I noticed about his account, but decided not to after seeing how... despondent he was after team game!! :p

---

Whoa whoa whoa, are you saying Dolbster has opened Gangnam style (not a good fit but I just wanted to use that formulation) the past two+ games? That might shift the balance if true.

I guess the main issue I would have with the prior is that... I'd lowkey expect a town!GH to be more ready to meme first and ease into the thread more slowly, I suppose? As in to not tryhard, especially how the extremely high expectations were put on him in the team game that just ended; I know that's not necessarily the case though, because different situations and stuff that I might not be accounting for!!

I am so relieved that team game ended earlier today as a note, as it would have been so awkward to think about this stuff without that game!!!

but what are your thoughts on his posts this game? i’m kinda hmm at you drawing a comparison to that gh wolf game where he pushed an obv villa. it feels kinda premature when you don’t even have a read on the person he’s pushing this game

This is an excellent take, and puts into words things that I was trying to express that I'm not sure I expressed well enough!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

like, if you v read dolby i could see where that would be setting off alarms for you wrt gh but you don’t so i’m not sure what the connection you’re drawing is

is it the nature of gh’s push? the timing? the tone? or something else?

To what are you referring to?

Sorry, I just reread my post and it's barely comprehensible, I did not do a good a job of filtering my brain there; uh...

I suppose I just liked how it seemed as though Sunbae felt the need to going into specifics on that detail, like calling it a whole 2/10 on the sketchy scale!!!!!!

That's actually something I've been theorizing in general since team game, that town are more likely to be specific in certain situations than mafia are; was discussing it on stuff in the game with my team, though needs more info/research!!!!

For what it's worth, don't worry about it; most if not all things you feel like you were dumb about will be forgotten about, and it'll just be remembered as the team game where town swept, sooner or later!!!!

You can at the very least claim you weren't the vig!!! :p

My apologies, it's GH who has randed minimum 2 mafia games in a row before this, not Dolby!!!

Though you do raise a fair point on Dolby; I can't really say that my read is based on meta as I haven't played with him directly recently, so if anyone can chime in, that'd be hype!!!!!

This is fine, I just haven't really gotten a read on you yet!!!! I'd probably just reverse towncore, in terms of where people are; not much thoughts on Ephemeral except that one thing I mindmelded on, I think!!!

Also I'm going to try to stop posting so much, sorry people; just more hyped than usual about being able to !!!!!!! about my own reads whenever I want versus teaming because fun as it is... there are certain challenges that are challenging!!

Also I thought this game would be less !!!!!!!!!!!!posting!!!!!

pretty much boils down to melding

also the way her thoughts are spilling out all jumbly reminds me of rocks

Vote: Ephemeral

Trust him the least, by far, out of the consensus core/alliance/whatever have you that seems to be forming in the general [Ephemeral/Hally/Ara] triad that's dominated the last hour or so. His posts are too blendy for my liking, don't think he's done anything remotely townie, kinda reminds me of some of his scum games (in mashes especially) where he's just kind of looked good on surface level and skated by and that's been good enough for a lot of people's first passes (and in mashes, first passes are a lot of the times all that's happened). Notably, I do not have this issue with Hally or Ara and think that both of them have posted well enough so far in terms of solving sentiment + general townie thoughts etc where I don't see myself seriously considering either of them today.

As for Dolby, I've been kind of tossing his posts around in my head for the past hour+ and I do agree with the sentiment that others have expressed that his sort of doubling down is townie, but I also thought his one take on exactly me where he went with the super surface-level read of my posts reminding him of my hyperaggressive approach in the just-finished teamgame was, well, super surface-level.

Official Tally as of #297

4 Maple (Ephemeral, Hally, Arapocalypse, Maple)

1 GeneralHankerchief (Csargo)
1 Hally (Montmorency)

interesting

i’m kinda confused why you’re using mash meta because i don’t think how he wolfs in mashes would be directly comparable to how he would wolf in a smaller game like this. in fact, in the smaller wolf game i read of his (which admittedly was somewhat old) he definitely wasn’t blendy

somewhat old being like 6 months ago(?) i think

which i consider kinda old in the context of how long he’s been playing

I doubt it's relevant now, but it is kinda similar to this iirc.

I'm pretty good, how are you doing?

i also don’t really get the sense eph is blendy?

his takes on manti and dolby were fairly novel when he gave them i think. he definitely seems chill but i think that’s different from being blendy

also that's a very inaccurate interpretation of how I wolf even in mashes¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sup, none atm really. I'd expect him to do that as either alignment, maybe a slight slight slight town point for Monty but realistically it's probably just rand.

Re: Eph follow-up @ thread in general, I'll freely admit that I don't have any specific pieces of meta to point to and I'm fully aware of the whole "mash vs. small offsite game" caveat w/r/t this sort of thing, but at the same time it's not a feeling I can shake. My first thought was that it reminded me a bit of his play in Elements mash, but then I just checked and it turned out he was town in that one. :freak: I'll ruminate on it some overnight and decide whether I was thinking of a different mash or whether I'm just entirely off-base.

I just remember him yeeting khaan for a similar sort of read from what I remember, something along those lines. This is a lot more tame in comparison and from 3+ years ago. That's basically how I remember it.

It's also been colder than normal here, it's a pain.

What do you think of Dolby?

Gonna peace in respect for the local wildlife

l8r yall

https://i.imgur.com/mflINur_d.webp?m...idelity=medium

I don't think Dolby doubling down on the Esooa read is more townie, I just think it's the logical progression from where they were. That's how I see it anyways :shrug:

this is correct (despite what i just posted about you always randing wolf)

consider my eyebrows raised but that’s it
