maybe it's just how i play twg, but this is way more valuable in terms of solving dbp than it is solving xiz imo

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

I prefer the pressure-cooker method, it's why I like having my targets in thread as I nail them to the cross

especially in voice chat

you learn a lot about someone's mindset when they're under duress, how they compose themselves, how they respond to ad hoc pressure, etc

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

rn xel's townie, and so is leetic. y'all are harping on leetic for leetic things. leetic be doing the normal leetic. at worst it's nai but i see a resemblance in play style to the last game we played together, where he was town

dbp's ok. though i could see him wanting to change his game up as a wolf as well as town. i think no one has been satisfied with his recent play style

you're okay but i'm not town reading you for appeals to emotion

haku's doing haku but there ain't a town haku tell yet gotta wait. same with jess. don't town read her for tone. she's good at emulating towniness

xiz is an interesting focal point for discussion. we have all forgotten cold kitten exists.

bolth doesn't sit well with me, not yet. dusk could be town, but i'm not sold yet. i'm gonna have a HARD ASS TIME reading ulli because it looks like she's a reactionary player, which isn't bad, it's just hard to read x.x

reads

shitty early reads

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

ulli, where are you from? you got any games you could link?

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

haku, who are you wolf reading atm?

oh ffa exists and i mean, also, no read yet

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

psychoangel is null, because she ain't done shit yet

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

I could be wrong but I don't think coldkitten exists

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

I keep thinking that you're doing the thing where you pretend to explain how a sequence of events lead to a certain conclusion.

I'm not saying that you need to turn every stances you have into open questions, but it's bugging me.

By example, in Xiz's case; if you put yourself into Xiz's shoes, why would you mention "SK" as town, wolf and the SK ?

Why does that make Xiz the SK etc. etc.

This is like the meat of the subject that I'm holding back on talking about because part of me want Xiz to explain it first, but I can't help but be confused about where you're trying to go with this.

If you're town, you pretty much told wolves to NK Xiz.
If you're a wolf, you're trying to find the SK.

Basically, you're creating problems for Xiz and I feel like it's a little early for that.
If anything, it's making me wonder what your intentions are.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

there are pains in my heart

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

haku's town god bless

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

while I still think DBP should respond to you, I have a question for you:
did you even have the slightest notion that a SK could be in this game while you were posting?

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

I played this setup before and I've scrolled through the roles in OP so, yeah.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

ffa what do u think of leetic

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

okay well yes we know a SK can exist in the setup but I mean
has it been on your mind while posting?

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

Ask me again after I changed my mind at least 5 times.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

currently sheeping

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

are you sheeping leetic or do you think leetic's sheeping someone?

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

@Haku, I don't think Xiz is a Serial Killer here, I think he's a wolf who is HUNTING for a Serial Killer. From my past experiences in C9++, I really don't actively "think" about the SK role when I'm actually the SK. I DO actively think about the SK role when I'm a wolf, because the SK is the biggest threat to wolves in this setup. There have been past games where we found wolves on D0 because that player brought up the Serial Killer one-too-many-times. It revealed a preoccupation with the wolf-team's safety over actual game-solving. That's why I think him bringing up the SK out of nowhere is sketchy.

This is why I wanted Xiz here in person before I made that post, or at least have Xiz in here in general, so that we can hash it out in real time.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

I'm more worried about jessie that will probably go UTR.

Leetic seems okay for now. Just a different politic views than the average FFR player, but nothing out of the ordinary.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

i mean she might 'cause she's moving on wednesday, but for now she's quarantined with her dog

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

Yeah okay. I totally had the wrong idea here. That's fair.

Let's see what Xiz says about it.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

yeah to be precise, this positions Xiz as wolf, not Serial Killer, unless he really just fucked up

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

mml did i meet your expectations

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

as a corollary to that, I think wolves are more likely to bring up specific PRs out of the blue, and it's for the same reason: of course because they are hunting for PRs, not wolves

a good townie's mind is on gamesolving, and while IMO townies should keep an eye out for PR softs a little bit, you will notice that their top priority is nailing reds. The rest is secondary to that. This is clearly observable in normal play.

^This is the secondary test I would be running if Xiz had more posts

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

Unfortunately, no. It's been around...5-6 years-ish? Since the site I played on last existed.


I say "site", but it was more like "the last in a series of sites, consisting of free forum software run on whatever server space we could dig up, moving elsewhere whenever we ran out of space". They were all called something really generic too, like "The TWG Site", "The TWG Site II"...the last one was IV. There were a couple of spinoffs, such as a short lived one dedicated to Resistance games, and the more successful "TWG Turbocharged!" which hosted super short games, as has become popular nowadays.


Gosh, it's so bittersweet to remember this...it was such a close-knit, fun community to play with at its peak. Unfortunately, the admins with actual access to server-side stuff just up and disappeared one day, and the last site slowly hemorrhaged players before going offline after a couple of months with no games run. Since adults and kids were playing on the same forums, there was a ruling very early in this community's history that any games involving OC were strictly conducted on a site based chat service, and no sharing of any IM handles or emails were allowed. I knew a few players' contact info from when I got invited, of course, but we slowly grew apart as the years drug on, and eventually handles/phone numbers changed, and they were gone.


On one hand, I get misty-eyed and want my TWG friends back! But on the other, some of them were pretty "dudebro-ish" if you know what I mean, and I dunno how me being a girl now would go over...

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread

my eyes need some rest, I'm gonna eat and head out for a little while. I'm hoping to finally have time to read through my monstrous Krazy Kat Sundays anthology this weekend, and not sleep through the entire day like the piece of shit I normally am

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

I had a strange dream last about Popeye the Sailor, I was Wimpy and we were having random WWII shenanigans at the US Naval Academy in Annapolis

something about ink? and bubbles? I had to convince myself those weren't real after I woke up

Popeye wasn't even in the Navy

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

i feel that. the site i frequented before ffr disappeared like... 3 years ago or something? i stopped being active there a good five years before that, but i have fond memories of the friends i've made there. i don't keep in touch with them as often as i should 'cause we've drifted apart, and i've made peace with that. according to fb some of them are doing real well though :)

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

man now i'm having good ol' 2010 flashbacks those were the days. i had no responsibilities and spent my days online with my online friends on a website

why do we have to grow up

why does life have to get complicated

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

we didn't have wifi when I was a kid so I had irl friends :^)

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

me whenever I'm reminded of this cruel inevitability:

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

i didn't have irl friends til college rip i was so lonely before the internet

real good practice for quarantine tho yeet

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

i'm keeping this

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

Really?

Xiz and leetic are just gonna NOPE out of the thread for the night?

whatever i'm going to bed

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

I know we're at page 22, but I'm still mad no one within Xiz/leetic/psy/(maybe Ulli) explained what happened at #55,56,57.

I intend to vote in that pool and town read the rest of the game until proven wrong even if people think it's stupid.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

Probably priorize Xiz by association to what DBP said.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

aw i was liking this tangent fine we can still talk about the game

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

i'm. fine with voting psychoangel if there ain't real effort come eod. she's prolly dealing with irl stuff idk

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

Xel's posting style is rubbing me the wrong way. They're a high poster, but there's no content. They are just prodding and poking people randomly, like they're waiting for something to stick, trying to get a sense of who they might be able to mislynch.

Not necessarily alignment indicative behaviour, but I'd really like to see what a your thoughts are on people other than your very lightly pushed tunnelling on lar

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

I think Xel just does his own thing here. I don't see any anomaly at this point.

More thoughts are fine, but there's not that much atm.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

FF XIV is fun.

Also I’m flattered I’ve posted 4 times and I’ve still managed to be the center of attention. Again.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

Both / funny top town so far. Both because shitposts, funny from Jessie read, saying she needs to do more

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

I claim sk, my partners are lee, psy, and maybe ulililili

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

This is not what I wanted, but it's probably what I deserve.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

I was expecting you to dip anyway, so no?

Didn't he get drafted in the United colored shorts?

Honestly mindmeld+just thinking the tone here is pure, like she legot was shooting the shit waiting for answers and none ever came.

Xel basically comes alive around d3 and comes strong. Actually, its not uncommon for wolves to NK early even when he's still fucking about.

Not justifying his play because it's honestly garbo but, lile Haku, i just don't even entertain a d0 lynch on him.

If you ignore the majority of the thread, sure!

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

I'm leaving a vote on Leetic

If he comes back and addresses posts/questions and starts practicing what they wanted to preach then this vote can change. If not, it'll be just as viable as most other d0 lynches right now anyway.

Probably would feel bad placing this here but after that shitty one line deflection he posted to me eariler i don't see how I should read him any better, like come on.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

Funny looks engaged and I'm not 100% sure how I feel about it.

Traditional wisdom says she's town-aligned for it

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

bruh moment

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

Damn Leetic jumped back in thread real quick huh

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

what is this referring to?

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

Name popped back up in viewing thread.

Normally thats like, the only instance were that damn thing will work, and the name has already disappeared

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

oh
well, there's no guarantee of course


for a minute I thought you somehow read haku's quote as a new post from leetic

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

It doesnt give false negatives like that, mate

It'll fail to show the name, it'll keep showing the name looooong after you leave.

It doesn't pop up a name and then take it down unprovoked.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

like, trust it/read into it if you want I guess? We all know how often the thing is remotely reliable

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

[vote Xiz]
[Xiz flips town]
[wagon is full town]
[town self-destruct]
[town loses game]
[even narrator don't know what to say]
[sweating intensifies]

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

....

I'll just make a note of how careful this soft defense of Leetic is right next to the note about your low effort sheep and just see where things go from here then.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

where have I seen this before

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

About 3 games ago, I ended up indirectly leading(?) a D0 lynch on Xiz who was town as town.

Similar scenario here.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

*sip*

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

The [sweating intensifies] was a stolen Phil line after I fake claimed stuff.

It's relevant to Xiz saying he's SK here.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

Do you think a SK would claim SK in a way that doesn't look like a serious SK claim to hide that they're the SK ?

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

backpack's read is something I would consider tried and true



otherwise it's largely player dependent
a few years ago Olimar12345 played a single game here, rolled SK, and asked for clarifying rules about the SK in the thread indicating to me that he was the sk, but he actually survived to F4 somehow
a while ago some noobish player on zeldadungeon got outted for SK hunting

so while it's more common with lower skill players more experienced players can definitely slip
I don't think claiming sk with partners is AI at all, it's just straight nonsense

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

On phone just gonna tap out for the night

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

Your top towns are trash :/

Anyone can shit post
Anyone can be like ‘you should do more’

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

Like, is that really all you have from this entire thread?

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

You know I should go sleep when I confuse "Bolth" with "Both".

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

It's worse when you grow up with Bolth as your last name and everyone spelling it wrong so now whenever I read the word 'both' I do a double take cause I think its my name.

inb4 dox

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

wait
ur insane bolth, fastest man alive

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

I'm pretty confident FFA is town this game.

Unfortunately, there's not much I can do about how his content will be interpreted.

I'll just tell you that he's -really- playing his own game and will objectively throw stuff at people to resolve stuff for himself rather than give you the content that you want to see.

If you can get past that layer, I think you will appreciate his posts more.

If you want him to type things in a certain fashion, I'm afraid you're knocking at the wrong door.

I sincerely believe he plays in a similar way as me, but in his own way.

Okay, that's enough praising for today.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

you can do a little more if you want

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

I'm going to point out how weird it is that bolt says a town read on bolt is trash

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

For me, that's completely normal. I used to hate how everyone rapidly town read me in older games.

Key word is "how".

I'm sure Bolth would have liked to town read players wolf reading him over stupid reasons that only a town would say.

That's a lot more fun tbh when you put some effort into a chaos play.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
 

actually
bolt

I'm worried the stance that xiz' reads are trash is LAMIST (Look at me, I'm so townie)
can you quell this fear for me
