    Good knowing speed = certain crit is still here. Original Gen mechanics? Total Crap.

    Squirtle? The hell? Can we pretend we have better pokemon?

    So guys? What's up?

    Is that Pokemon jargon or the clumsiest breadcrumb ever?

    Jargon on Charmander mauling the sprout. Speed glitch defined meta back in the day. Persian was top cat and could slash crit with a 99% confidence thanks to it. Having a nostalgia trip. No breadcrumb here. Not a big fan of it honestly.

    Hm, how about "Mid tier"?

    Plus we've played together before, I'm pretty sure.

    Aha. Fascinating how that background info suddenly makes your original statement parseable. :)

    I like to breadcrumb. Mainly because I love cryptics, word puzzles and the like.

    Breadcrumbing is bad, because I am awful at it.

    Did anyone else ever name their Poke-rival after a real world person they couldn't stand? My poke-rival was always named "Seth." I was in high-school by the time I started playing pokemon (4 years after its debut.)

    Actual style answer-

    Offense > defense.

    Townies who protect themselves to survive aren't worthless. They're worse. They deadweight. Find wolves. Win game. Second goal? Look townie to narrow suspects. Survival is dumb. Town is a herd. Swarm and trample wolves. You die doing it? Acceptable loss. Wolves can win with you surviving. Don't be dumb, focus on actual goal. Not what makes you feel better.

    Breadcrumbing occasionally okay, but dangerous cause wolves got more intel. Better nose for finding it. Good idea for Cops though. Activity good. Posts with real content good. Don't take game too seriously. Be competitive but relax.

    Analyse thoughts again as game goes. Don't stick with old thoughts. Keep reassessing. Bias is a trap. Be willing to be wrong. Then try again. Get closer to truth. Basic science.

    If you can explain the wing nonsense on Wartortle we can be friends again.

    Mid? Seems humble for someone who fought in champs.

    Named 'Blue' Spatula in my first game.

    That's a lot of pointless humoring, Raith.

    It's cute how you actually think I know something about Pokemon.

    I haven't fought in Champs yet.

    Hi Logic! Pity I don't know you well enough to insert a joke here about high school, poke and debut.

    Are you a deductive kind of player then?

    Yeah, we've played before, Sooh. Do you think you can read me?

    Hi Jabbz! I know I can't read you. Or maybe I can since you can't vote for my brother in this game...

    Not particularly, I don't remember many specifics. I guess I have a (unverbalizable) mental model of what kind of player you are, and if you do something at odds with that I might react. But of course that could then just be an error in my model.

    I have you stereotyped, I guess.

    Hm.

    Good stereotype or bad stereotype?

    A detective with a defined mental model/stereotype of something/someone can be a poor detective, indeed. So you've just said that Sooh can throw off your game. Nice to state that you have preconceptions of her in advance, but how do you plan to deal with that before it can lead to error? Are you just going to let others work on reading her?
