TWG 191: Don't Trust Your Mentor - Game Thread

[SubaruPoptart]

Am on the bus to school now so replies gonna be sparse till I get out.

I think it might be time for a DBP

His inactivity is reminding me of his old wolf play and i got the same gut feeling last game with his similar play (and guess what he flipped). It might be a bit early since he hasn't posted anything but i think im comfortable with this vote for now.

Is it odd I want to townread storn for doing what I just voted someone else for?

Cause I want to lmao

because i have a read other than "low post is kill". its based on a person and the way they're playing.
but yes, someone who's never played with me before is town reading me. that IS weird

It is not a massive crime to suggest lynching 0 posters obviously, loads of people do it but it is anti-town play here imo and that is the most I have to go on.

Is the whole 0 posters lynching the only reason, or is there anything else you've found from Lar that you could disagree with?

I legitimately thought this was only me, but I do remember a game where he did the exact same thing and was town. That being said I don't believe this to be an M.O for wolf DBP, but rather NAI.

The last time Storn was town read he nearly wiped out all of town before slipping up two minutes to EOD. Please keep that in mind as he's very crafty

[Shadow_God_10]

That being said, I'm gonna go read the rules carefully to see if Wolfe-dono has any contingency plans for inactives

[Shadow_God_10]

There doesn't seem to be anything set in concrete for forced replacements. I imagine if DBP wanted to replace by now he absolutely would have, but I feel we should talk this over and wait to see if he comes to play

He thinks lynching low posters is bad
It's just his inexperience showing, don't pay him any mind. When he sees replacement after replacement no post and it's d5 and he has to vote an inactive and lose the game for 12th time hos career he'll rethink his stance

This is disgusting to read. Duskfall, your allowed to publicly disagree with your wolf partner in thread.

This is angling

Which I get my "replacements tend to not fix the problem" stance is close to that line but like I feel this probably crosses it.

[SubaruPoptart]

Adding to my compendium of terms, what's angling again? Starting to actually write stuff down so that I don't have to keep asking this question.

I feel like what you're saying here is more so experience talking than anything, and I have no clue what you mean by angling. Would you mind explaining angling?

[Shadow_God_10]

Ninja'd by Poptart... Wow...

Using knowledge from outside the game / proof not present in thread to make decisions concerning the game.


Also gonna unvote for the time being. Wanna see something.

[SubaruPoptart]

It's been explained to me before but I couldn't remember which game it was in so that's why am asking again

Okay... now I see what he means and definitely not what I intended to happen.

This is much simpler. I absolutely had 0 intent of this, and I shall refrain from displaying any form of empathy going forward

[Shadow_God_10]

And I just repeated the same thing twice, I need to go the bed

[Shadow_God_10]

....Yup, fuck it. Goodnight guys
