Mass Effect 17er [Game Thread]

[Hally]

I have neither the time nor the desire to invest the time necessary to get in-depth views of everyone today. I don't feel like my reads here are far off what I had in Visor's game, probably a lot less confidence here then there for experience reasons. I'm just trying to be casual tbh.

I have yet to fully delve into a few people CL, Eph, Sunbae, Monty, Maple. I thought CL and Sunbae were fine, they were good enough to not consider today anyways.

I did look over dya and I'm not sure why people want to yeet there. Is there something I'm missing here? I feel like dya's approach to the game is more townie than not imo. I feel like there's a lot of points where they could have easily acquiesced to requests, but just sort of did their own thing. Is that just something they'd do as either alignment? I don't feel like it's that bad honestly. I guess a lot of people have dya in their PoE, but I don't know if they're serious reads or just putting dya in a box for activity/effort/etc reasons.

SHROOP (kinda)

[Maple]

actually more the three posts before then than these

I think me avoiding your questions by talking about food is par

[Maple]

SHROOP (kinda)

How so

[Ephemeral]

Yeah, and the other two are ez consensus reads. What you're saying is the point, not a point against my feelings.

my area of practice isn't in feelings unfortunately

[Maple]

Peace

[Hally]

eph was also in slep

oh, right. i seem to have blocked that game from my memory because i don’t really remember how he was there lol

[Hally]

voxx 9er and rocks are awful metrics to gauge my village game by

and team game was a special case of people being bad

how are you not mentioning lets say uh, hbs(which you were also playing in)

or if you want wolf games you've got more than plenty in the last few months where I was generally lock villa for the longest time lol

forgot about slep

have you wolfed in a small game recently? i’d like to skim one actually if you have a link

[GeneralHankerchief]

SHROOP (kinda)

Not even a little.

(will talk about your response to my Eph thing in a bit but the grammarian in me says that this is a perfectly fine sentence regardless of my other thoughts on Csargo)

[Hally]

or yknow

pantheon

i wasn’t in pantheon, just loosely followed it

also i don’t really care much about mash meta for this game

[Hally]

I have a hidden eph read

can you un-hide it?

[Hally]

If I'm a cop hally is my n0

However the only claims I'll make this game are fake mason, comms, or tracker claims, so this post doesn't mean much.

subbing the N1 on manti to fake shc myself

your move willage

I guess if you odn't wanna include hydra g2

there was that one fol game manti talked me into playing with him

https://forum.throneoflies.com/t/mor...ad-b/85541/358

game was split into 2 diff threads because big brain setupz

i was in thread b

[Cuthillius]

I think me avoiding your questions by talking about food is par

the vt claim and the ara/esooa takes

[Hally]

yes yes

more gauging like

your level of comfort about the current gamestate

anything you're specifically concerned about

how your day's been

oh, when you said *waves hands* i thought you meant like “hi pay attention to me”

uh, i dunno. my brain is like extremely mushy rn and i got very little sleep plus i’m trying to get caught up very fast because i have to go to work soon so i’m gonna parkour over this question

[Ephemeral]

the vt claim and the ara/esooa takes

he does the vt claim as either alignment fwiw

[Cuthillius]

he does the vt claim as either alignment fwiw

i may look at this at some point if i can withstand the agony of navigating a fol game

It's actually surprisingly not that awful when you get used to discourse

unless you mean something else in which case, valid

[Csargo]

SHROOP (kinda)

I feel like it's a perfectly fine sentence. Maybe convoluted.

[GeneralHankerchief]

@GeneralHankerchief i’m reading your eph stuff but it’s not really resonating much. how much did you follow along with rocks inv after you died? i feel like some of the things you’re saying about him are similar to things that were said about him particularly in the later days of that game and the only reason he wasn’t lunched for it was because he looked good off spew. and just generally i think his villa game doesn’t really project as villagery in the same way like mine or yours does. the three times i’ve seen him village (voxx 9er, rocks inv, team game) it’s been the same thing where pretty much nobody finds him villagery. obviously i haven’t seen him wolf recently so i dunno if the same would be true of his wolf game. but like, maybe you can riff off this and talk about how your perception of eph this game meshes or doesn’t mesh with your perception of his villa game?

I followed it after I died, but I didn't read read it, you know? So it's hard to say where you're coming from, really. Considering Eph himself has kind of 86'd your other references (which I am giving him zero credit for), how does the rest of my case hold up? The fact that I didn't like his pushes on Maple (particularly that early on) and me don't have anything to do with his early posting in threadflow, and I'd like to hear your thoughts about that, especially since it's somewhat along the lines of what Amy got into trouble for here.

[Sunbae]

I am hoping that there is 1 scum as most in this pool but more often 0:

Colonel, pZelda, Ara, Hally, GH,

If you had an issue with the manti push early then why didn't you bring that up specifically back then and instead opted for vague "seems like what I remember of his wolf games" which you walked back on by citing elements(wowee)

bronana

it has zero coherence

Because I didn't remember it until I read back.

[Hally]

csargo

haven’t liked any of his posts + none of the ppl who know him are v reading him (the SHROOP thing wasn’t really serious ftr)

i’m fine with giving rask and dya more time and don’t think i’d lunch anyone else really

really, really have to go now and am not sure i’ll be on again before EoD. glgl

[Ephemeral]

lol

[Ephemeral]

Vote: GeneralHankerchief

[Hally]

vote: csargo

also gh i see your response re: eph but i have no time rn so we’re gonna have to table it, sorry

really gone now

[Dolby]

I'm astounded that Ara is reading Monty as twtbaw, and that people are heavily scumreading him for his entrance. The outcome itself is probably fine in an environment where he's being either ignored or mildly sus but it's a big thonk

Csargo is fine

Monty's hard post is around the fluff level I expect it to be. Think it's just typical him. Isn't howling. He's fine

Amp's Dya vote is meh. Don't think they mentioned them before the vote?

I think it goes without saying that I think sheer volume of Pzelda townreads are bad. I dislike specifically his "don't TR Monty for contrarian takes", feels like an excuse to not progress the read. He does progress the read slightly later though saying that I've TMIed Monty town. Part of me doesn't want to accuse him of outright gaslighting, but, yeah....

I think that his posts being more disruptive than anything else is enough to have him as a sr. There are two more concrete reasons. His votes are going completely against the consensus. They have no chance of succeeding and, in case of Hally, he had no good reason. In case of his vote on me, his reasoning was vaguer than I would like it to be. Also, I disliked his meta shade on GH. I admit his newer posts are better constructed, but I haven't find anything 100% towny in them yet (I admit I skimmed over spoilered parts).

Outside one specific point everything here is fine even though I disagree with it. But you seriously going to cite his opening vote on Hally as a reason to SR him?

Eph's posting been fine.

Dya is here and I should ISO the slot since this is the first Dya post I really remember seeing (833), but they are definetely less impactful than in Ice Cream team maf D2

Kinda concerned rn about Esooa's readslist. Imo it's entirely consensus with only a few deviations (Colonel null instead of town, Maple scum and maybe Amp at null being those). The null reads to have more explanation than (most) of the town reads and scum reads. Can't say that I have an opinion on Maple but I feel like they've just been trying to vibe and have a good time with the thread. Kinda like the GH analysis in there fwiw

Like GH's 855 moreso for identifying that Amp/Dya are being pushed for being lacking. I also like the comment "His thoughts just feel (sic: more) natural and Monty-esque", it matches with what I thought of Monty's hard post, just typical of being him.

Don't like the general trend where in GH's posts it's always "dolby is just a little to X"

#899 with regards to my wall: I started by reading from post 91, but was pretty sure that up until that wall I hadn't expressed a Hally townread in the thread, or that I particularly agreed with Hally. So I thought it was weird that I was portrayed as TRing Hally. That said, I'm pretty sure that I said "mindmelded with Hally again" because I had similar thoughts to them at multiple points during my reread

I need to make a proper dive, but I find it that Monty's establishing vote was more likely town than Dolby's case based on me having a poor reason to suspect Monty. It feels like he might be tmi-ing Monty town.

Really not seeing how this is a thought at all

yeah I'm comfortable remaining here

Historically I've had bad reads on Csargo but I should look through his ISO

[dyachei]

I am hoping that there is 1 scum as most in this pool but more often 0:

Colonel, pZelda, Ara, Hally, GH,

agree about most, not sure how i feel about bop. bop is sneaky
