Thread: 13er summer game thread
I mean, if we're going to blame visor might be worth ngl
so... i type all of that out, and my vote is going to land on achro, right?
you'd think so
right now i am seriously struggling with winston being mafia. ive read through the prior sorc17 game here last year and... yeah if i get into it i DO think he was townier in that game? but i just... feel like he's still rly fucking towny this game
in my brain i do actually believe that the team makes sense if achro is on it, but the team can't have achro on it if winston is a villager. and i believe he is a villager
well okay i guess it can be achro/cuth but lol, no
and this vote isn't ONLY because i think winston is town. like, i do think achro has been incredibly villagery in this game as well. yadda yadda its in his wolf range probably maybe but i dont know. i believe him. i believe the words he says and there are disconnects but i
i can't bring myself to vote him for it. im typing THIS out and i feel like i SHOULD be voting him. i started typing this and i FELT confident i would be correct voting cuth here.
i don't. i really don't.
am i doing this because it's less bad if im wrong? no, not really, i think nobody will judge me if im wrong here really. other than myself ldo
um
yeah i don't know. i think benneh is pretty wolfy. i think he's fallen off the face of the earth since like day 2. there's... some moments where i read a benneh post and i FEEL like his villager soul is there but... ugh. it's not often enough. if i was right on him d1 and dropped it here that'd feel dumb
it all feels like it just makes sense EXCEPT the part where calling cuth mafia is easier than calling achro mafia.
that's some shit, isn't it. if im right then im punishing cuth for being a VAMF and if im wrong then im punishing cuth for shit he didnt even do lol
sorry if wrong. truly. it's not on you.
vote: cuth

achro has been manipulative as hell this f5 imo. i think he's been pocketing me, i think he's kinda put me in a few situations where the only "correct" options are beneficial to him.
i think cuth has been like, the purest motherfucker on the planet today. like i think pretty highly in myself when it comes to solving players IN LYLO and on that metric cuth is so blatantly the villager here.
i think you've both played incredible games regardless of the accuracy of the above reads. this doesnt need to be said but i am saying it anyway because despite it being unspoken it is doubly true here

alright now that everyone's checked in yall can vote eachother

True. We could do that in theory. What were those after party thoughts?alright now that everyone's checked in yall can vote eachother
real talk for a second but i have another bbq to attend this evening and then a flight to catch tomorrow around noon so i won't really have much time to dedicate to 'casing' much, whether that be wolf casing or villa casing myself
having said that, yesterday i thought would have made it easier because i've pretty much had the team as sk/cuth/X with x being winston/katze and some light paranoia elsewhere that has mostly been resolved. and with the good vibes i got from katze yesterday before yoling and giving them the hammer i'd have probably just said its always winston in this f3
but honestly rereading over yesterday and the game with everyones alignments in mind except you two just left me more confused. there's a lot to what katze was saying about how manipulative achro felt yesterday. i was feeling it too but i mostly shrugged it off because cuth felt like the wolf in that cross who was resigned to his fate. i thought that was obvious to both me and katze but i probably would not have given katze the hammer at the time if i knew they were as conflicted about achro as they were because, again, at the time, it just felt obvious
but maybe it was designed that way? SK was obviously dead meat the day he died, but i think cuth was equally done? and if im going to be a villager who doesn't just throw f3 i have to consider a world where achro and cuth designed yesterday to feel not w/w because that is exactly how it felt but its hard for me to imagine cuth thinking he wouldn't be voted
cuth danced around katze quite a bit. obviously they were trying to buy /earn their vote. in the world that winston is a villager, why doesn't cuth lean harder on winston the way they did w/ katze, especially given what winston mentioned was his early preference (achro/katze, who in this world would be w/v pairing)
in the world winston is a wolf, where is the alignment between cuth/winston? this pairing just doesn't make much sense in that way but maybe thats just winston?
achro has lots to look good for. overall villagery throughout the game but some questionable accuracy. lots of volatility in his reads and re-evaluations -- which i think probably means >rand v here given what i saw in the prevoius org game -- and again, the stuff yesterday looks unpairing with cuth
but there's the problem, cause i'm a villager and one of these unpairings is just manufactured and untrue
so anyway
i thought yesterday would provide clarity and give me confidence especially when katze was clear but i feel more liekly to want to enact winston's method of just flipping a coin here to decide who the wolf is between yall but i know thats super dumb and if i get it wrong i'll regret opting for that instead of, yknow, playing the game
but then i say to myself
counterpoint: its worked (so far)

i also think it would just be super funny if winston is a wolf who 'randed' (whether real or not) his votes the last two days onto wolves and then i did it today and it landed on v!achro
it might be even funnier if it lands on w!achro but there's less self deprecation for me in that scenario so i'm not sure which is actually funnier
anyway im not doing that
maybe
it might be even funnier if it lands on w!achro but there's less self deprecation for me in that scenario so i'm not sure which is actually funnier

i don't really have many questions for either of you
achro cause i feel like you've answered most everything anyway the last few days and if i want to i can go read those novels
winston cause i doubt you'll post much anyway
and also i don't find that kind of stuff helpful to me in f3 as i believe the solve is already in the game thread up to now
but here and happy to answer questions until i have to go. i'm just gonna be rereading and trying to sortout who i think the wolf is and then try to muster up the courage to vote before i have to go to this bbq

Alright well. I personally think you should vote first. And if it makes you feel better we have the same eod wolf accuracy at 1/3. Winston is 2/4 and in the lead there.
Take your time. Interested to see where your vote lands.

achro can you talk to me about how your worldview changed after dya and visor flipped? they were a big part of your solve d2 and then 24 hours later 2/3 were dead and flipped v. curious on what your process was at that point more than the result but you can include the results too
specifically the part before EOD3 or votes though

So visor flipped and I laughed. Because what else could I do at that point. I then reminded myself again that if I get upset then I am literally always wrong. Then I didn't think about the game for 24 hours. I needed time. I was confident my first post was going to be a sleep vote though because I just wasn't ready. Then opening happened.
Dya dying didn't really surprise me since my world view was already shattered and ready to start over minus liking cuth of the alive.
I remember as I started to think about the game really liking Katie's pov. They seemed confused by things. Them going 'wait I was starting to buy visor's pov lol me' when ender red checked felt very earnest to me. I felt they were pursuing the truth with how they handled things day 2. I thought that wolf katze also in hindsight wouldn't antagonize me so much day 1 when it was two villagers voting me especially. No need to draw my attention. I got jokes but sk drew my attention as an example.
I remember going through the eods and head tilting more and more at cuth's behavior. I had found you independently wolfy from visor and was compelled by cuth's posts on you as I read day 2. But then I noticed cuth's votes were very strange. Never on you. It was like he was doing everything but voting you. Felt wrong. I went back to eod1 and those votes were also strange to me. I detailed it day 3 but essentially I just thought cuth was incredibly not genuine as it related to his desire to see you hanged.
Got to insomnia because I compared cuth to me in terms of eod wolf play and thought it would be a good play. That was flawed for now obvious reasons but where I was.
Then sk said he was going to cross insomnia soon and uh yeah no. I immediately was like '?' Because I had read through eod2 recently. He and cuth had gotten into a knock down drag out fight eod2. So I was stunned he wasn't even going to make cuth respond to my case or respond to my own case on cuth. So I went back and looked at a recent sk wolf game and the thing he used to juke me is something he does as scum now. It was obvious at that point to me the two were paired wolves.
Then I told winston this and day ended early.
If pr poisoner was two use everything makes sense to my eye. The wolves wanted visor alive to poison him for extra kp and to shoot a town, probably me, and the bus cred on sk would be super valuable. Additionally it would explain why the bg claim was useless - katze had been attempted to be poisoned n3 but nothing happened rendering their claim moot.
Day 4 was mostly me trying to make it obvious that cuth was lying by asking direct questions where he contradicted himself a lot. Turns out winston didn't read that and katze wasn't swayed by more than a hair but we take those. I thought I did an excellent job against cuth but it was probably a bad style for the org. But it worked so maybe it was OK.

aye, the org is being really janky today
it's making reading back a pain
nevertheless, now i've actually been looking at what achro has been saying, and one comment that caught my attention said that my continued suspicion of katze (gg btw) shows i don't reassess my reads
which is entirely mistaken
as i said early in the game, it's a matter of probabilities
that i continued suspecting katze does not mean that i was convinced of his guilt, which is why i never made any real case for chopping there (which is not to say i wouldn't have chopped there - i would, i just wasn't confident enough to try and really push anyone else to do so)
the only exception was a brief period at the start of d4, before i reassessed cuth and benneh, whose apparent innocence effectively proved katze and achro guilty to me
indeed, the growing realisation (aided by a little light reading at MU) that cuth's tone is still radically better as scum than as town caused me to find katze townier, since he was no longer showing any effort to drive the game or manipulate people, which would have made no sense at all in the context of what cuth was doing
the way each of you was playing it, on the other hand...
well, there's the subtle approach or the crass approach
benneh, while i'm sure he's capable of throwing haymakers, during this game has consistently been gently nudging things around
achro, meanwhile, has engaged in some of the most overt attempts at manipulation i've ever seen in mafia
in light of cuth's flip, this can also be seen in the respective bussing strategies, with cuth/benneh hedging to try and stay in the sweet spot, whereas cuth/achro would be throwing it all down
(no idea where i was going with that, but seems i got somewhere close to giving actual content)

i don't think you could call what i was doing a hedge?
i mean, you can assign wolf poitns to it and i wouldn't blam you i guess but it wasn't a hedge at all. i was all in on a v!achro/w!cuth world yesterday
i was all in on wanting to be the hammer so i could be clear and earn the nightkill which i felt would make f3 much harder for the surviving wolf (whether that be you, achro, or katze) but as yesterday developed i felt a little more at ease with katze and also a little bit 'done' with the game and decided to trust them and hand them the hammer. i also thought this would make the game easier fmpov if kat was a v but it didnt really
idk, wifom and all, but i don't think wolf!me ever hands katze the hammer so they can clear themselves and put me in this specific f3 against you two. there was a lot of risk to it but it felt OK with how kat was posting yesterday and how i saw the worlds sharping out. w!me just doens't do pro-town stuff like that when i'm wolfing and whether or not you or achro is the wolf me ultimately clearing katze was very pro town

yesterday
winston thinks its achro/katze
I think its cuth/x - x being between winston/katze
achro thinks its cuth/benneh?
katze thinks its x/benneh - x being between cuth/achro
cuth wolf doesnt matter what he thinks
if achro is a wolf, i think its likely he voted cuth with the intention that w!achro is the one who loses that thunderdome yesterday because
a) katze has suspicion on achro already
b) v!winston wants to vote between achro/katze already
c) although b is a 50/50 for achro to win, by solidifying a bus between him and cuth it looks VERY good for cuth at f3
d) even in a cross where cuth wins that f5, i don't think its suspicious if cuth is alive today whereas it would look very sus if achro was alive today at f3 after winning.
except: since kat was clear, they make sense dying and achro being alive does too. but achro could have no idea i was doing that.
the problem is this doesn't align with how cuth responded. achro kind of beat cuth up and while i think lots of those back and forths can look w/w it just makes more sense for cuth to try to be the winner here ultimately if this is the motivation achro had for voting first. the only thing i can guess is that if thats the team, cuth may have thought he'd be able to win over katze with his posting (and he apparently almost did, so c'est la vie if thats what happened ig uess)

no, it wasn't exactly the right word, but i couldn't figure out what wasi don't think you could call what i was doing a hedge?
if you'd killed achro last night, how confident would you have been of convincing katze not to vote you today?
conversely
in the world winston is a wolf he came out pushing a v/v world to see what I would think of it and asked for permission to vote either achro/katze
there's some push back against that and winston then kinda dips outta thread but eventually returns to seemingly have his cat decide between bussing cuth or voting achro
since we're in a w!winston world in this scenario .. although id idnt pick up that katze was as close to voting achro yesterday as katzes last two posts show, its possible w!winston and cuth would have picked up on it and might have been ok with yoloing a vote onto achro there in hopes katze voted wrong. i dont think they could have expected me to vote achro there so they would need specifically katze
honestly this feels dumb deciphering whether or not winston's cat randing was real or not
its either real or not but one thing it does serve is allow w!winston to be less accountable for his vote regardless of how it swings. either its random so he can justify voting achro in that spot or it allows him to bus cuth despite how he opened the thread yesterday with his suspicions without having to really explain it

which is entirely mistaken
as i said early in the game, it's a matter of probabilities
that i continued suspecting katze does not mean that i was convinced of his guilt, which is why i never made any real case for chopping there (which is not to say i wouldn't have chopped there - i would, i just wasn't confident enough to try and really push anyone else to do so)
the only exception was a brief period at the start of d4, before i reassessed cuth and benneh, whose apparent innocence effectively proved katze and achro guilty to me
indeed, the growing realisation (aided by a little light reading at MU) that cuth's tone is still radically better as scum than as town caused me to find katze townier, since he was no longer showing any effort to drive the game or manipulate people, which would have made no sense at all in the context of what cuth was doing
the way each of you was playing it, on the other hand...
well, there's the subtle approach or the crass approach
benneh, while i'm sure he's capable of throwing haymakers, during this game has consistently been gently nudging things around
achro, meanwhile, has engaged in some of the most overt attempts at manipulation i've ever seen in mafia
in light of cuth's flip, this can also be seen in the respective bussing strategies, with cuth/benneh hedging to try and stay in the sweet spot, whereas cuth/achro would be throwing it all down
(no idea where i was going with that, but seems i got somewhere close to giving actual content)
Ah, I have no idea how you play so fair. I only went off of what I saw.aye, the org is being really janky today

Crass eh? Been awhile since anyone has called me that. I prefer to think of it as straight forward and persuasive.
Although I see no reason why wolf achro ever needs to bus cuth in f7 given the position we were both in. I do admit I do need to work on my marketing as town though, I do come off very mw ha ha ha villainous as town while I am charming as a wolf at times. I am working on being nice all the time.

probably moreso than I would be to convince achro but less so than i'd probably think i could convince you?
hard to say
