katze/visor/benneh?

[Totally not Taffy]

i gotta say achro i'm digging the juxtaposition of your disliking rvs and wanting to get to deeper more analytical content with your randomly trying to thunderdome people based on not super substantive interactions

i feel like you'd probably get better results if you increased the level of uncertainty coefficient in the equation, so to speak

I have to admit I have no idea what you're saying with that last sentence which makes me think I might not understand what you're saying in this post at all.

they're probably all villagers

ladd is probs my 2nd strongest townread behind benneh rn, visor and insom are both posting fine

How do you read Benneh?

Day 1s for me as town have always been about experimentation. I find mafia to be an interesting but repetitive exercise as town, and throwing a bit of ingenuity at a problem creates room for new solving opportunities.

I did admit after all I didn't know what I was going to do with only 50 posts to solve, but here's trying eh?

Plus it's best to assume as town everything I do has about 2-3 hidden motives and ideas behind it. I'm much more methodical than one might assume if they only read my bluster casually. At least, that's what I tell myself.

So what was your agenda behind the "take a name off the list" game SoD, what if anything did you learn from it and why did you drop it later?

i don't dig the taffy read. the way they questioned visor's vote on achro and then instantly piggybacked it with him deserving pressure because he can post enough as a wolf

maybe i didn't really understand their point about how many posts he had vs how many post caps we have here, but regardless of that, it just felt like a wolfy way to shoehorn in a vote after asking for why visor made it in the first place

Visor's vote stood out to me because he said it was serious so I wanted to know what I'd missed, then went looking for a possible reason myself bc a) I didn't think I was going to get an answer anyway and I was impatient, and b) if it really was a serious vote and Visor is town it's more worthwhile to look for a reason myself and maybe show Visor that I'm town by finding the same rather than thinking I'd be able to tell his alignment from his answer, if that makes sense.

question to the class: who here has actual experience with w!winston

Only once over a year ago but my impression was that Winston does not enjoy wolfing anywhere near as much as towning and the only thing that could make it bearable would be if Visor were also a wolf.

[Totally not Taffy]

i'd really like to hear taffy's take on how i've played here

It's coming but I haven't actually reached your entry to the thread yet

For now I'll say I think you're a more likely partner for hypothetical wolf!Cape than Achro is.

It's true. If Visor and I were both scum here, I'd be having a ball.

[nebjiamn]

katze/visor/benneh?

that would be fun

Ooh, yeah, I've not talked about Cape at all. Good catch.

[Cape90]

Not sure how to feel about the wall tbh. It feels like commentaryvanyone could say. It's all fine but not hearing town in you quite yet. It's not disagreeable in its conclusions but I also dont understand why you think Taffy is the best vote in wolf achro worlds as I think I would be TMIing them town if wolf with my town read of them attempting to disarm them like I did. I guess you don't need to worry too much about pairing thoughts before any flips though and maybe thats the case here.

This specific portion of 210 feels like it could be coming from the mindset of a wolf who's with Taffy

But that's too level 0

[Winston Hughes]

that would be fun

can't blame a boy for dreamin'

[Raskolnikov]

Winston(1): cuth
Visor(1): Cape
Cape(4): ladd, insomnia, Dyachei, katze
Katze (2): Winston, ender
Achro(2): Visor, Taffy
Taffy(1): SK
Sk(1): achro
Ender(1): benneh

Not voting (0):

I believe this is correct... maybe. Glgl

[Winston Hughes]

oh shit, we're lynching cape?!

[nebjiamn]

Visor's vote stood out to me because he said it was serious so I wanted to know what I'd missed, then went looking for a possible reason myself bc a) I didn't think I was going to get an answer anyway and I was impatient, and b) if it really was a serious vote and Visor is town it's more worthwhile to look for a reason myself and maybe show Visor that I'm town by finding the same rather than thinking I'd be able to tell his alignment from his answer, if that makes sense.

i can dig that. but that doesn't really align with what your reasoning was to vote him at the time?

like your posts re: achro today woudl have made a lot more sense in that context but the part that bugs me is that you found something almost certainly NAI to use to vote him (e.g. his ability to post above the post cap?)

[Winston Hughes]

why have i been ignoring cape?

[Totally not Taffy]

vote: cape

I don't think anyone else really stands out

Dyas posting hasn't kicked on but I'm fine with that for now

Cuth seems okay for now

Nothing really moving the needle re ladd or benneh

Not sure why it fell off the previous quotes but I think Ladd had done enough atp to have an opinion about him one way or another so slight wolf points for Visor.

Wouldn't want to break with tradition, after all

[Cape90]

ladd: my read on cape has been nearly nonexistent all day. his posting has not done it for me, i know he can easily do better as either alignment, i've felt like he was going to die since the first half of the day and i have not really cared to change that because his posting is. not good. especially as the day goes on and players are actually getting pretty villagery, especially dya trending up when they were my top wolfread for a bit. the game around cape is simply townier. if i ignore everything around him then his posts are still not great anyway so it's a ~fine D1. i guess in few words my read on cape is "a player who is failing to be villagery in a game full of villagery players"

This is the only time I wanna make this clear

If I am wolf, I would have made better posts a long time ago

But alas, you have caught the ultimate chill cape who doesn't care.

i think visor probably holds ladd and i to a slightly higher standard fwiw

both in terms of wolf and village reading us

[Totally not Taffy]

No not his ability to post above the post cap, but the fact that he posted very little more than the postcap so it shouldn't feel as restrictive as he claims it to be.

[katze]

alrighty ty for the info

id be pretty hyped for a benneh/katze wolfrand but id bus visor so hard u have no idea...

SPEAKING OF WHICH visor is rly wolfy uwu (this isnt a real read) (maybe???)

current worldview looks something like


REDACTED READS: Winston, katze

ladd
benneh
Taffy

Cuthillius
dyachei
insomnia*
Achro

Visor
SilverKeith

Ender
Cape*

i kinda think these two are w/v like 90% of the time

feel free to ask questions in the meantime, this is my capping post ill be back in 40 min or so glgl

I'm still trying to find this mysterious Achro townleaning me thing where he didn't just say that this game reminded me of my wolf game from way early game.

If katze insists it exists then it obviously must

[nebjiamn]

No not his ability to post above the post cap, but the fact that he posted very little more than the postcap so it shouldn't feel as restrictive as he claims it to be.

ok

that makes a lot more sense lol

[Winston Hughes]

why have i been ignoring cape?

ah, okay

because cape doesn't seem to be acting at all

naturalistic doesn't necessarily mean townie

but i'd need something more specific to convince me to chop here

otherwise cape just seems like low hanging fruit

[ladd]

i am tired and working from office tomorrow so dunno how much longer i will be awake. will try to follow cape catch up to see if I have to switch vote (i'd probably switch to ender fwiw)

me/cuth/benneh/achro/dya/winston are all villagers imo (in this order)

i have gone back and forth a bunch of the rest but the above are p solidified. think i'd probablyyyyy have insomnia/taffy as the next villagers

[Winston Hughes]

REDACTED READS: Winston, katze

i'm pretty sure i know the result

but i respect the commitment to science

[ladd]

so far it looks like keeping my vote should be fine tho

yea, this is more or less where I am at

why w/v on cape/ender?

[insomnia]

p sure she meant cape / i as we're the only two with stars next to our names

i've been kinda getting this w/v thing by a few people and in mashes too. always wondered if it's a way to say im right without wanting to sheep me directly

[dyachei]

oh shit, katze is v reading me. have they actually gotten accurate on me or are they a wolf?

oh right, my bad

makes sense then


you can have the blame if cape is a villager and i can get the credit if he is a wolf

villagery post

[Winston Hughes]

@ladd

sell me on cape
