Oh yeah, what I was gonna say is that at least I'm putting out original thoughts. Sure there's no example but I'm still stating what I think. It's better than just coasting out the whole game literally not saying anything.

It's your opinion. You're wrong as all hell but it's your opinion.

Re: TWG CLIX: Form your special exclusive groups now! - Game Thread

Your accusation is me just not backing things up and you can't follow my logic sometimes? I'm just gonna keep playing the game and trying to find wolves, there's nothing that I can really argue with you.

you could state your reasoning why people are town or wolf, rather than just state the fact that you believe they are one or the other

Re: TWG CLIX: Form your special exclusive groups now! - Game Thread

I interpreted mellon, based on the early shit posts and this post, to be someone who was largely unfamiliar with mafia/TWG. The attack on me later was too self-assured tonally. I don't know what this inconsistency means, but I end up questioning the sincerity of 297 as a result.

I think the inconsistency means that you read me incorrectly to begin with. I'm not sure anyone else would read that as inconsistent from me but I don't think they would.

I still think being so sure of yourself is very bizarre. You say my post is "objectively wrong" but don't say why.


@roundbox, don't have much to say in response to your analysis, I see your points. I didn't vote for Precarious because I didn't think a vote would mean much at that point, since he'd already had some pressure votes on him and there would be no other point to it.

Also I didn't see him as scummy enough to vote for. I did bring up that point with him because it can sometimes indicate scumminess, but in this situation it seems like that's just the way he plays.

Faster version

Does botchi always post nothing?

Don't quite like juckter's tone, but I'm not sure why.

Shado jumping between humor and serious is distracting.

inD is weird. Their posts slide off my consciousness so easily, which feels like a wolf tactic, but whenever I actually force myself to focus on what they're saying, they seem pretty on point. Overall, I lean town here, the actual content doesn't seem dishonest.

The juckter-Shado group thing is weird. Generally I don't really like either of them tonally. I don't care for Xel either, but hammering home on Haku seems like a bad play for a wolf unless both are wolves, and that just really doesn't seem likely.

#440. Shado null-town reads me while keeping a vote on me. C'mon, that's not even trying.

Gradiant finally votes Freezin. Not totally sold on it. Gradiant feels more convincing in the next phase of their argument, but I'm still not sure Freezin did anything wrong.

Stuff is beginning to run together. Shado votes inD. That at least matches up with his reads. Actually, this begins a run of a couple posts that look better for him. Previously, everything felt manipulative, he seems to be more honest right now.

But as soon as Charu warns him, it's back to chummy posts.

And then he looks townie and honest in his response to inD. I don't even fucking know now.

Oh hey, botchi actually said something. Kind of weird though. Feels incomplete.

I've been kind of ignoring Charu in this thing, but I hope he keeps calling people "Bucko."

Don't like what botchi is doing here at all. Going jokey when you've been so MIA seems deceptive.

Shado is getting townier. And then kind of reverts back to suspicious again in the conversation with inD.

Weirdly long quote post from Xel. I'm not sure it's wolfy, but I don't see how it helps town.

Aryxi drops out. Zenith is a complete null read at this point.

Holy shit. I don't have time for this now.

I did it I read the posts!!! MY THOUGHTS:

I believe Charu. Because of the reasons everyone has already posted, it would be a very ballsy move and a lot of lies to keep up with if he was a different role. I don't think the potential benefits would outweigh the risks or effort involved in crafting that sort of lie immediately off the bat. Also since it's been a bit and nobody has counter-claimed. I don't see many situations where the real BG wouldn't call Charu out immediately after that post.

I really don't want to say that he is confirmed though. He's not confirmed, and this way of thinking can be dangerous. Keeping an open mind to all possibilities is an essential part of TWG in my opinion. I'm going to keep my eyes open and continue to analyze him because there is still a chance he could be lying. But, I do think it's more likely that he is telling the truth. I don't think there is much point in focusing on this at this time

1. The exclamation points after the "I did it, I read the posts" feels like someone who's proud of himself for just keeping up with what's going on. Misinterpretation, sure. But that's how it read to someone who doesn't know you.

2. You're objectively wrong. Yes, he's confirmed. It's not dangerous. Because if he's not what he says he is, he'll be counterclaimed. Roles flip, so there's no risk of information loss. Either it's a gambit or it's not. But we can assume it's not because there's no risk in assuming it's not. If it is, it will fail before the end of the game, which net benefits the town.

That I keep having to explain this is why people harp on me for repeating the mechanics. But I repeat them because no one seems to understand this.

Ugh, I really don't wanna keep going, lmao.

Don't worry folks, I'll totally still re-read where I left off, but, uuuuugh. Y'know?

I'm gonna jump on this read people one by one thing lul

Re: TWG CLIX: Form your special exclusive groups now! - Game Thread

Okay, reread complete, although I had to stop typing out my thoughts because time.

Some things to note: out of the various votes cast today, only three are still in place, and all have been in place for a while.

1. inDheart - town lean. This kind of style can be wolfed, but it feels sincere so far. If a wolf, this is an effort play.

2. Hakulyte - eh, null to town. There's a lot of stuff I didn't like (mainly the defensiveness and the poorly reasoned Xel vote never moving), but the Haku I saw in the second half of the day seemed to really be searching for answers.

3. Zodiac - Null obviously.

4. ShadoWolfe - null to wolf. I was sure this was going to be a heavy wolf lean, but Shado's overall profile is too mixed for that.

5. danceflashrevo - null. Town reading here for a while, but DFR never really picked it up. The implicit effort kind of disappeared.

6. Charu - Mechanically town unless counterclaimed.

7. Gradiant - Pretty town read. I'm not quite as sold as, well just about everyone, but overall profiles town.

8. FreezinIce - null to town.

9. DaBackpack - null. Don't like the inactivity, but the responses at the end were the towniest thing I saw from DBP all day.

10. Precarious - Town.

11. roundbox - null to wolf. Scummy play, reads feel off, yet I have trouble believing a wolf would actually play this way. Seems risky, but I don't know his meta.

12. botchi246 - wolfish lean. Very inactive, and the few posts felt perfunctory and manipulative.

13. XelNya - null. This could be a serial killer, except feels a little risky for that.

14. juckter1 - null. I have no idea.

15. mellonxcollie - null to town. Just because I disagree with them doesn't mean I wolf read.
