TWG 187: Senpai [Game Thread]

[the sun fan]

devonin, while its not impossible, wv is a bad lynch for today because the only world where he is anything other than a role/alignment that is not a threat to town is one where Xiz is deliberately trolling me

and while normally that's impossible, its at least possible in this game that that's the case

but there's plenty of other, much more worthwhile possibilities first

[roundbox]

Gs, come on man, are you really accusing me of not trying to solve the game??? First, no, I've done plenty of posting, deducing, and interacting that this statement is flagrantly wrong

I stated before the game that I was going to be phone posting the whole time
Honestly, I'm doing a bit better than I thought I was going to do posting on phone thank you very much

[Not devonin]

Let me make this clearer then: I am not voting for Wayward because I think he will or even necessarily should be lynched today. I am voting for Wayward to hopefully indicate to him that people have noticed the pile of nothing he's been bringing to the game and that it's something I'd like him to step up on.

I'm reaching the point where I'd rather go back to being chopped liver where nobody mentions me than the alternating "Stop just analyzing mechanics, and make some proactive statements" -> *makes proactive statements* -> "Not those though, those are stupid and you're bad at this" cycle I seem to be in now.

When I first came back to ffrtwg, I was accused of being mechanically minded and overly robotic
I know the feel

And sunfan: I feel like it in game

[the sun fan]

my goal is not to make someone feel like chopped liver
when I'm talking to you, its to explain my own thoughts/viewpoints

not to discourage you

[Daikyi]

that's fair i guess, however from the way you worded the entire post, it sounded like you were very much sussing him, rather than just calling out for "bringing nothing to the game".

unsure where "proactive posts" fits in at all to "making posts focusing on mechanics that make pretty unreliable assumptions"

[Not devonin]

I think it is suspicious that he was gung-ho wolf reading mellon and tying her to gs as a team, and then when it became clear that his whole narrative was absolute garbage, very unexpectedly, he just sort of...stopped for an entire 48 hour day, and still has only come back to be like 'can't post lots, boy this game is nonsense, wait what did you already say before?'

Clearly if I take that suspicion to mean he might be a wolf that is something other people don't support. Cool. I'm not concluding anything because this is basically a game you can only conclude anything after a seering, and even then who tf knows.

I'm saying "It's at worst suspicious, and at best bad play, and I'd like you to come back and do more"

If his response is "nah I'm good" I don't think from that that he's a wolf, I don't think he's that day's lynch, but I think my response is "The next time we're not sure where to lynch, and go for inactives you're it"

Yo Haku, are you still under the impression that I can destroy items? If that's the case wouldn't the letter have disintegrated as well?

[Daikyi]

@Dev ty for explain, i think i'm just not adjusting to your headspace enough given twg meta shifts tbh

If I could sum up I think, what I'm doing that seems weird to you that is me trying to handle this current form of TWG it would be like this:

I churn away at things. I look at scenarios, consider what would be implied by alternate scenarios, re-evaluate previous actions based on later information, but, the way I process it is "Bounce the ideas off of other people and get feedback as to whether there's anything there" which, in the way I was used to playing, with out of thread conversations, the ability to talk to people one on one, I could be running these ideas by people in private, and hashing out which ones have legs or not before I brought them to the thread.

But we can't do that, so I basically have to just sort of ...dump all the analysis and theorizing into the thread and see whether anybody thinks it means anything.

So on the one hand, I know all my theorizing isn't going to pan out, which has the result since it's all getting posted here, of making it look like I'm just way off base all the time. And on the other hand, everything's going directly in front of the wolves too, who can definitely join in on the hole poking.

But overall I'd rather try to hit on something really good than get stuck in my own head trying to obsess over whether something is a "good enough" theory or question or suspicion to post.

I'm just wondering: wouldn't the letter have been destroyed and I wouldn't have been able to read it? I'm presuming that a letter would be considered an item in this game

There might be multiple conditions to how things work for you regarding this.

Maybe you only destroy dead players items and not actually game related items like letters.

Just a guess.

I mean, I guess what you've said isn't outside the realm of possibility but I have no idea.

There's really only one way to find out, I suppose. I guess I'll just have to keep waiting.

[Shadow_God_10]

If a letter is indeed considered an item, then no. I doubt I'm capable of destroying items.

wasn't it you saying you could destroy matter?

Yeah. That was me. But now that I have a letter, I don't know what I can do. So I'm back to square one again.

[Not devonin]

Yeah but wasn't he the "Once I find my true love my power is unlocked" person also?
