TWG CLXIII: Allies and Adversaries 2 - GAME THREAD

Re: TWG CLXIII: Allies and Adversaries 2 - GAME THREAD

I don't like that Raeko's been absent of late. I think slipping UTR is a major tell with her when thread gets investigate-y, and she'll usually drop in with just one comments to prod discussion in a certain way. I've seen that pattern almost every time she's wolfed against me, and it's happening again here.

I can't really defend myself against this other than to say I don't have unlimited time to spend on the game and I don't have a phone, so if I'm out of the house I'm not on TWG.

I'm know everyone thinks I slip UTR on purpose and I have done it a few times as a wolf when I thought I could get away with it. But it's not my go-to strat since it is super expected of me and it's not really fun

Re: TWG CLXIII: Allies and Adversaries 2 - GAME THREAD

My top five towns are
ShadoWolfe
Vendetta
jrodd (mainly for EoD last phase)
thesunfan(some tinfoiling remains, but I can't see a wolf suggesting that V choose who to target due to potential influence of wolfpowers)
I'm hesitant to put a fifth. It'd be AA, but I'm not 100% on him for reasons already stated (still need to respond to his responses, but they did move back up a notch). Haku is a close sixth here, and his position might switch with AAs depending on what happens at EoD and the lynch tonight

You don't have a phone?
Oh. I understand not having much time, but I thought you had a phone to use when you weren't at home. I don't think I could even TWG without mine tbh

I'll take that into account fsr from now on

Re: TWG CLXIII: Allies and Adversaries 2 - GAME THREAD

still can't believe you think that's a thing, I'd have to take a huge longshot guess or be partners with xiz

Yeah it's pretty annoying. I'm getting to that point where I feel like I need a phone, I miss snapchat ;_; And being able to like look up directions/TWG from outside the house... anyways

I really don't like Meno because of the lack of original thought in his posting. His ISO looks terrible. It's either excuses or surface level mechanics talk that isn't even specific to this game.

And if you want to talk about an UTR strat, I think Meno fits the bill quite nicely. Because when he has been here his content has been mediocre. Some people are busy and still able to produce personalized reads and analysis, but he doesn't seem to ever do that.

It's hard to believe the game could be this easy but I don't see Meno as town after looking at his ISO, and I feel pretty good about Xiz too.

Re: TWG CLXIII: Allies and Adversaries 2 - GAME THREAD

I want to take a moment to talk about Shado's reaction to me saying I want to kill him
I'm trying to eliminate my over reliance (in my opinion its over reliance) on AtE, so I'm looking past that and

the post both calls me a possible wolf and a possible town in the same breath. he says that the world where I'm a wolf is a lot more likely now, but without saying anything like "if you are town," then I'm going to mock you in the postgame, implying I'm human all the time here

I think it was a not good post. Its clear that he was emotional about it, and people make not great posts when they are emotional sometimes, but uh

I really don't like the post

I don't like the post either. I don't think players in this game should AtE, and have maintained that getting emotional is not alignment-indicative. I remember getting pretty upset my first couple games here (especially in arguments with MML and inD), and posting reactionary emotions in thread is something I've been working to avoid of late. It can sully an otherwise-clean game quickly, and can inhibit other players from sharing their thoughts on a topic. That's why my first post on coming back was to note that it was wrong of me to have reacted the way I did. I understand creating lynch orders are necessary (and very useful) when theres a clear town core. I think a reason I got frustrated is that I had just gotten excited over the prospect of winning early (and being alive for the end of this one, which has only happened once I believe) after that massclaim, when all of a sudden I was informed that I waa likely to die for nothing other than a feeling. I'm not justifying getting upset, just trying to explain where I was coming from.

As for the lack of an "if", I can't really explain that (or any of what was going through my head ) except to say you had been pretty solidly town for me and the frustration was fluctuating my read on you in real time as I tried to reason out whether you could be a wolf.

Yeah it's kind of seeming a little unrealistic now, especially since I'm starting to doubt Xiz is a wolf.
If I had to guess, I'd say meno/Raeko wins the game. I'm slightly hesitant though because that solution seems almost too easy.

Yeah and it's wrong lol

I think my solution seems to easy too but hey maybe an easy game has to happen from time to time

Mind meld.

My only non-raeko worlds are xel/xiz/meno and the unlikely but possible xel/xiz/jrodd where jrodd drop seer cover on xel to make himself look town and buss xel just in time as the last voter D0 to avoid suspicion.

Who're your top 5 town? (include yourself, apparently)

[Hakulyte]

Re: TWG CLXIII: Allies and Adversaries 2 - GAME THREAD

Haku = V = AA
Sunfan ( initiated wagon on xel )
Shado ( I'm letting AA's read on you clear you for now / D0 vote is whatever )
Jrodd ( his tone looks towny, but semi-worried about actions @ xel cover/last vote D0.)
-----
Raeko ( I didn't like raeko's tone for most of the game, but I could be wrong. )
meno ( the real UTR player, his most recent big post is what is keeping him in the game barely )
Xiz ( too inconsistent to make sense for me / sheeping Haku is just not something you should do / has 100+ posts, not exactly a real low activity player )

Oh you wanted top 5 town? Too bad, have everything instead. :v

Re: TWG CLXIII: Allies and Adversaries 2 - GAME THREAD

I thought he was giving me my first ever townread from him and I was pleased at the apparent change of pace

It only took almost 75 pages~

5 is over half of 9

I got that part. Just wondering why include ourselves?
