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.

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'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)_/¯interesting

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.sup gh

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.
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.Originally Posted by Visor:

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.I'm good, hasn't been too hot here which is nice, normally summer is a real pain.

This is kinda nitpicky and I get where the joke is coming from but I don't really think this is a push, I think this is Hally just trying to reach out and find me.death, taxes, hally pushing gh

Out for the night, for real.

What do you think of Dolby?
Gonna peace in respect for the local wildlife
l8r yall
l8r yall
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

this is correct (despite what i just posted about you always randing wolf)This is kinda nitpicky and I get where the joke is coming from but I don't really think this is a push, I think this is Hally just trying to reach out and find me.

consider my eyebrows raised but that’s it

i guess i’m just taken aback because i expected gh to be more chill regardless of alignment given this is supposed to be a chill game and it’s on his home turf and everything
i feel like we’re all *gestures* here and he’s like *gestures more* up there on the tryhardiness scale

dya making 8 posts and then dipping doesn’t really mesh with them being relieved to rand villa 
also while checking dya’s iso i saw my post count and have concluded i should probably stop so gn

doing his thing, for better or worseIt's also been colder than normal here, it's a pain.

i don't think him proclaiming reads strongly early moves the needle much
been a little while since i played with him, so just seeing where it goes for now

The only game I've played with GH in recent times he was tryhardy. Is it bad is it good is it meh? It seemed like he was trying to be chill and then for whatever reason took off. It's weird to me.i guess i’m just taken aback because i expected gh to be more chill regardless of alignment given this is supposed to be a chill game and it’s on his home turf and everything

I feel like GH overreacted to Dolby, I'm not sure if it's unreasonable for him to do that or not, since I didn't think Dolby's read was above scrutiny tbh.
