Re: TWG Turbo V: Everyone Pretend to be the Seer Postgame
lols this game was a trainwreck that got compounded into a bigger trainwreck. Shoutouts to Juckter and the RNG gods, you're the Heroes of the Hour!

Re: TWG Turbo V: Everyone Pretend to be the Seer Postgame
Oh. Here's two relevant parts of a longer rant in deadchat, which is pastebinned here: http://pastebin.com/gsVmw4x4
Everyone should read the above pastebin, but MML most of all, because he's trigger happy, tunnels way too hard, and made a couple of shit plays this game. Also, he needs to get his memory checked:
From BOATS OOTC:
"[2:13 AM] MixMasterLar: Lemme ask you something, this time.
[2:14 AM] Wolfe: Go for it.
[2:14 AM] MixMasterLar: Why do you prefer being a wolf? what's the best part of it?
[2:14 AM] Wolfe: Well, you have to understand that most of my experience is IRL
[2:14 AM] Wolfe: IRL, wolf is just absolutely the funnest role
[2:15 AM] Wolfe: Village townie is totes boring irl. Here, I'm actually enjoying it because there's so much discussion
[2:15 AM] Wolfe: IRL it's like, BAM phase over BAM phase over BAM phase over
[2:16 AM] Wolfe: so cop and mafia are funnest because you get to actually engage
[2:16 AM] Wolfe: Idk what wolf is like online, I've never played one in MafiaScum and I'm not one here
[2:16 AM] MixMasterLar: Word
[2:17 AM] Wolfe: So yeah, when I said, "I wanted to be wolf"
[2:17 AM] Wolfe: It's definitely true because I wanted a special role
[2:17 AM] Wolfe: but like, the more I play this with y'all
[2:18 AM] Wolfe: every single person is equally important, and it's fascinating to see the interplay of actually discussion and logic, as opposed the bullshit I was exposed to on mafiascum and the significant loss of content that comes with fast-paced IRL games
[2:19 AM] Wolfe: Idk if that makes sense to you, but I tried to explain it as best I could
[2:19 AM] MixMasterLar: No it makes sense
[2:19 AM] MixMasterLar: I agree, it's a fresh game experience for sure"
From BOATS main game thread, shortly after my introduction:
[2:06 AM] Wolfe: Oh, further reference for the amnesiac twat:
[2:08 AM] Wolfe: Initial XelNya probe into my experience:
Initial response:
MML chiming in (seriously stop smoking so much dank weed and your memory will get better, ya twat):
My response to MML, referencing my IRL games and lack of online experience:
XelNya's response, saying that I shouldn't play the noob card and expect to get away with it:
Read the pastebin!
Or read the whole deadchat, but making that public isn't up to me.

Re: TWG Turbo V: Everyone Pretend to be the Seer Postgame
Precarious played well, although semi-robotically. My issue with his vote on james was that, if he was avoiding voting MML to avoid a vote on his green check, then he would've remembered that James was his green check the day before!

Re: TWG Turbo V: Everyone Pretend to be the Seer Postgame
Just kidding, well played. I didn't expect the "pretend to be Seer" strategy to work that well.
Juckter1 impressed me. I couldn't read him as Seer at all on the first Day. (that's a good thing)Last edited by Hakulyte; 10-3-2016, 02:08 PM.Comment

Re: TWG Turbo V: Everyone Pretend to be the Seer Postgame
James was actually my green check that day. That was kind of the problem. I didn't have time to make sure that I was actually lynching James (as opposed to just creating another RNG contestant, which is what actually happened). Either way, though, by doing so, I was conceding that I wasn't actually the seer by voting someone I had "green checked." Had I had time to actually follow what was going on, I would have left my vote on Aryxi (I could have thrown AA under the bus, but being a lone wolf with a still living seer would have been a bad situation, particularly since even if I had killed the seer other people would be confirmed green).Comment

Re: TWG Turbo V: Everyone Pretend to be the Seer Postgame
I wasn't here for the previous games, so I can't really comment on them, but the mass seer fake claiming is REALLY powerful in this setting. With only 9 players, each individual green check means something. The mass false claiming allows the seer to post their results without being targeted, and even if they're killed by mischance, their results aren't lost. This means that even in a worst case scenario, the town is going to gain real information, and since the mass results hide the seer, it makes it highly likely they survive at least until D2, and a decent chance to survive to D3+. Obviously in this game the math was skewed somewhat by one wolf dying in the first two days, but a situation where there aren't many players and a seer can safely get results out without being targeted leans town. That doesn't even account for this issue of players being constrained by their own non-seer results (in my case, I had to abandon the seer pose to vote James). Part of the issue is that the game simply resolves quickly, so it's possible that a town win looks more commanding than it actually is, but even assuming no wolf deaths, it would still take until D4 to even potentially force LYLO, and that information is always out there with role flips.
Essentially, wolves almost necessarily need to kill the seer on D1 or N1 to win. It kind of sounds like that had always happened to this point, which is really improbable to begin with, but it becomes even harder in the face of this particular tactic. Again, I'd recommend eliminating the N0 result, but I understand if people don't agree.Comment

Re: TWG Turbo V: Everyone Pretend to be the Seer Postgame
yeah, it was relaxing because this weekend was not great for me, so it was nice to pop in at night and just read along instead of posting. i bought some nice shirts though so that's a highlight
full games are great to me now because the 24h nights let me just take whole real-life days off the game, which i really like having for my own sake
when AA posted "finally" after your flip, i thought it was actually a reaction to you being dead, lolComment
