I'm actually really proud of you Zenith, I mean it's obvious you're REALLY into this game, and it shows.

Wait, blind does bring up a good point though? I understand not wanting to out him just yet for the sake of gathering more tracker results. However, defending him and reading him as town is completely on the opposite end of the spectrum. You could have still fought for his lynch without officially giving yourself away.

He didn't give himself away UNTIL the next day phase in which he could be of more use, you silly-willy.

It was also when I blew up because I was still in the mindset that it was 100% tokzic and any other lynch was down right stupid.

Welp, with the current information being thrown around, turns out that little stunt was actually really beneficial, at the expense of my mental health.

I fought for his lynch without giving myself away.

What is the good point now?

I mean, I effectively did exactly that. I gave away myself this phase to pinch Blind who is a wolf, and I cannot die due to Tokzic claiming to be a Guardian unless I get lynched, so ultimately if Tokzic doesn't die or if Charu or myself die instead of Tokzic then it confirms Tokzic and town wins the game (assuming we lynch Blind who is my wolf result).

Yes, but I think the point he is trying to get at is that you didn't do this the entire time when you had the information on tps.

To my understanding, this is what happened:
(1) Start of day 1: you know tps is a wolf
(2) End of day 2: tps is lynched

It seems the point blind is trying to make is that between (1) and (2), there existed times in which he didn't fight for tps's lynch; in fact, you did the opposite and townread him.

I might be confusing myself though...I might be mixing up the timing of things in my head, idk.

Re: TWG CXXXV: Dichotomy - GAME THREAD

It's called playing the the sneaky Tracker with one confirmed data point correctly.

Trading himself for a wolf would be a sub-optimal play if he chose to out himself to get TPS.

But thays the thing. He didn't have to say he cleared tps. There's a difference between protecting yourself and saying you have a permanent clearing on him.

He could have just said nothing.

Re: TWG CXXXV: Dichotomy - GAME THREAD

Benguin, plz.

Did you forget Day One lasted for a grand total of ONE HOUR!?

[Charu]

Re: TWG CXXXV: Dichotomy - GAME THREAD

An hour, I might add, that was around 12-1AM EST.

I suppose so... I'll wait for Zenith's answer to this. I have reason in my head, but I want him to make the reason.

No you are correct. I very much know what I did seems extremely ass-backwards in the sense that I didn't emplore any form of lynch or wolf lean on TPS who I had information on but instead made it seem like I really townread him and wanted no desire with him.

I explained now though why I did this, but is the truth. I was merely saving myself from getting wolfed (and I took into consideration an older game where I softed too early and too obviously that it got me killed the first night). I also wanted to be in the later phases because I gain momentum as any game progresses and it's just my meta.

Re: TWG CXXXV: Dichotomy - GAME THREAD

And there you go, he wasn't even replying to you and he put a reason why.

He could have just said nothing.

I don't recall at all ever saying I had a permanent read on anyone besides two things:
1) A Seer Tampering Wolf Aligned Role (softed)
2) Choof not being a Conversion Third Party Role

I know I implied the effect of a "Permanent" read on him as town, but no it was a distancing attempt from me having a role (I was still avoiding being read as a role at the time) so that I could live and have more information and be alive in a later phase.

You're right, I could have said nothing (as it appears there are three players who barely said anything and have no association to the game) and it could've slid by but no, I was too anxious about being wolfed and quickly came up with a solution that may have yielded a safety net that night.

Anyone else notice how blind just completely stopped and has left the thread?
