TWG Turbo 41: Trust Fall! [GAME THREAD]

[Hakulyte]

The logical move here for me would be to not trust Char and then trust Shadow God.

Am convinced that if you know what Ouran is, you got the reference and are just fuckin' with me

for some reason i completely wooshed over haruhi suzumiya oopsie. ouran is my favorite anime next to death note. currently watching one piece... for the first time. slowly. anyway. it's too late in the game (i think?) for small talk (sigh, i missed the early stages when we were all sharing our favorite games and such, much to haku's dismay)

this reminds me of a Secret Hitler game that Shado was telling me he played with you.
but even funnier this time
you got him good; no better target for it

i also played this game with duc and i will never forget it. i keep thinking about this game as essentially just forum-based secret hitler. and man does trusting hitler hurt.

If you're the wolf and you want to snap up Haku for yourself, then that kind of implies you're feeling pressure because Haku knows he could just leave whenever he wants with SunFan if he gets bored or pressured. If SunFan was your wolf partner, I'd imagine you would feel as much pressure to 180 on your game to secure Haku on a wolf pairing

haku can't leave with me whenever he wants
he declined my trust fall offer
there was flavor text and everything

Alright... I've had some cold water and some time to mull things over in my mind

I think here's where I stand with Freezin's love confession (I'm sorry, but for flavor of this being a "Speed Dating" game, I'm calling it that)

Freezin, at the very least to me, feels like a MASSIVE wildcard who could either flip town or wolf....I would like to be the one to fall on the sword here and declare my intentions to accept his trust (Note: I am NOT "voting" just yet. I just want to make my headspace be known) and if he's a townie, that is FANTASTIC news for us. I have also considered the "Well what if he flips Red?"....To that I defer to us NOT PANICKING, taking a deep breath and keeping those 1 in 8 odds in mind as I mentioned previously because the remaining players I'm confident in will be able to send it home for us.

"Well, if you're 50/50 on him, why would you accept?"

Simple. We're almost at the stage of the game where checkpoint one is complete and if both trust falls happen simultaneously, It's a big gamble but we could HOPEFULLY get FOUR of us out of the game. Town cannot win without taking a chance on things like this. I'm rambling at this point I guess.

All I can really do is play with the cards I've been dealt here.

As for the who I am rather confident in?

That would be Lar, Greg, and naturally Haku.

Tokomi is up there on that list as well

The rest I don't have much of an opinion for because they haven't really been hauling ass like the rest of us.

Can't say that I'm a fan of you accepting his offer but do what you gotta do

I don't know how I feel about this actually

Lar won't like this, but I see a lot of merit to this
I think this guarantees two town in the first trust fall aside from weird, really out there stuff

[Galaxink]

I am so glad you're here

also good luck on trying to catch up to current on the thread, hopefully your brain isn't tied into too tight of a knot afterwards

and I would love to post another lizard fact but at the moment there are more important things to worry about

i am glad to be here!!

I AM ALL CAUGHT UP YIPPEEEE

my brain is mush but it was worth it

[MixMasterLar]

ok, shadow_god is town, good to know

he can't be wolf if he is debating accepting freezin's offer, I think

Talk me through this

[the sun fan]

I had no idea that ShadoWolfe had a cooler sister
4 posts and pretty neat already
I feel good about this game very suddenly

thanks Freezin??? maybe??

definitely a big advocate of shadow_god and haku getting outa here

[Shadow_God_10]

I don't even remember what the last page I read was and I hate this forum so much aghhhhh I want to stab my eyes out

anyways hi I am also here and reading...

Probably the page where you ripped my head off over calling you "they"...I would start there .

Welcome to the gunshow, homeskillet! Enjoy 600+ posts

Okay, yeah, that makes sense now. Thank you.

Raeko, if we have like a 95% confirm town, is the play to trust fall with them or save them for final 5/3?

[the sun fan]

Talk me through this

he can't be wolf with freezin and talking about it like this (without some super, super bizarre stuff, involving faking not seeing freezin's trust fall offer)
and I do think he would've accepted already if he was a wolf

there's just not really much reason for him to do these shenanigans
I've thought about whether wolves would want to sit on stuff, and maybe he is, but it seems a lot less likely given everyone is/will be active at this point in time

I haven't really explained why I said what I said about wolves sitting on a trust fall offer, and I don't really intend to, but it doesn't feel like what's happening here

Shadow_God plays poker strangely, and I do think he would be misplaying by not accepting Freezin's offer by now if freezin was town and he was not, but it just like
makes no sense to me
I don't see any upside

[Charmoeleon]

The logical move here for me would be to not trust Char and then trust Shadow God.

By all means, if that's what you think you should do, go for it.

[Hakulyte]

I feel like if Shadow God is wolf then W/W Freezin/Shadow God might be a thing to distance ironically because wolves -can- trust fall each other as long as they don't accept.
I just feel like wolves wouldn't play this move for this exact reason tbh. It kinda locks them up. So, I'm leaning Shadow God has to be town here.

I'm also concluding that whoever initiates a trust fall is more likely to be wolf than town unless it's backed up by some logical progression.
