on voting inactives:

I have always been of the camp that thinks the pros outweigh the cons, with one caveat.

Hakulyte and Raeko's exchange on this subject are in line with their respective traditional meta thoughts were 6 years ago, so that's probably positive for both.

That's cool and all but... what do you know about rolling down in the deep?

I worry I did too much all at once so I will not do something and watch the Florida Panthers stink it up for a moment

I really am quite sad that I couldn't post on my phone and that it continues to not work
I bet it would've not made wolfe tired of proverb
it even is what you said earlier in different language
idk
it saddened me somehow but I am just in my head I bet

I can't imagine having avatars turned off. For me, I (usually) just imagine people as their avatars.

that's why I turned them off. they influenced my perception of the person and therefore my read of them in a way that I knew was silly but was out of my control. there was a game where someone changed their avatar mid-game and I realized that it was affecting my read of them even though avatars have literally nothing to do with alignment, so I shut them off to better read the game without undue influence

I think I'm well below the level of read-obsession required for it to affect me at this point in my life, so I'm turning them back on for the funsies

I did see that my "reads reset" post was echoing your Lu Meng proverb and I agree with it. I do not mean to bring your mood down lol I just meant it seemed easy to keep referencing it and I was starting to get wary of it (not weary of it)

it's cool and all but after awhile my brain goes numb like a total mental freeze.
so when these people talk too much, I just put that shit in slow motion and try to chill out like an astronaut in the ocean

I'm leaving for an irl birthday with no clue when I'll be back.

Therefore it's your cue to talk in my back. @everyone \o

I mean, normally I would hate it because blues usually hide in inactives, but this game has no blues therefore why would you be inactive in this game and be town?

I haven't understood how you play this game at basically any point of our interaction

I'm not really the best at reading comprehension here so, it feels like it's more meaningful for me to try to actively post with others and go by guts even if I end up being wrong because it creates spontaneous interactions which is usually enough to solve me at a high % by middle game.

This might be the one game where Lar voting theory may actually be golden then rofl

Changing avatar before a TWG game is a crime against humanity punishable by speedrunning Hyper Iria.

I'm changing mine to my discord one, sorry not sorry :P

now that I can see avatars again my avatar is giving me seasickness

Because... life happens? Sometimes people are busy? You are going to an irl birthday party and then say this in the same post

We don't even know who would be considered "inactive" at this point considering there is still so much time left in the phase. It's weird to even be talking about this. I know "inactives" are always a topic of conversation for some reason but for all we know all 13 of us will have been plenty active by the time the phase ends

I had a fun conversation at work where my coworker cringed at how much of this song I can quote on demand

[star-crossed]

Re: TWG 210: Vanilla Ice Cream in Sprite [GAME THREAD]

so basically, this game, everyone is going to be the same, but someone is gonna die

i see a haku v star crossed, but ya know they are/have been the biggest chatters so far
they probably just bouncing off each other. plus star had a good lean for haku on i think page 3


Benguin noticed. weird phrasing here "creating"

i guess you explained what information is here, but the creation aspect needs elaboration

im literally just pointing some things out, not aggressive at all
i think the first couple pages are pretty much nonsense, early in the game whathaveyou

side note: dr pepper is really good, coke zero has been growing on me

Hi, I don't know you very well so I do not mean to be rude by not answering something, but as I was saying to Ben I think it is better if I explain it again after more has happened so I can refer to a real example?

when I went to bed, I was thinking about why I felt that way, and I ended up thinking about something from the last game instead
idk if u read
but I still feel like that Chinese proverb I quoted is accurate here

who two [people] part for more than three days, they should expect to meet a new person when they meet again
or something along those lines

its been a while
so long ago that Ben hasn't played since 2021, he estimates (welcome back nerd btw my post quoting yours was just a shitpost)

I don't remember how to read you (and more than one other), and I was thinking about how I used to, and I decided to just give it time. Not like I was gonna vote you for the post in the first place

anyways

I liked where you went after, or rather, the energy of it

it is just philosophy, like I can counter that villagers are a lot worse than people would think they are at finding wolves in a random set (I know it isn't a random set), but I do not share your optimism on town's chances simply upon the nature of the setup alone


For example, town won last game entirely because of mechanics, both because town used them very well and because wolves used them very poorly (sry raeko I know u were busy when lar fruited me)

obviously only time will tell, and to answer your question more directly, no, it isn't a dangerous line of thought now that I see what you were cooking (I guess I can be wrong but that's me being a weenie)

----------------------------------------------------

FFR isn't working on my phone btw so my posting might be even less than normal

Hi,
So I think I missed that quote but I did read a lot of last game. I do get what you mean, in that for a good few years, I remembered every game, everyone I played with, and it was a big deal to me to pay attention to what I could do better the next time and not lose the same way twice. Now, I think I have played with Ben twice, but I do not even remember which alignment he was, just kind of a vibe he gave me at this stage.

The reason it was even of note to me that you did not vote, is there was some game that was the only game I played with Daiyiki(?) and he called out Xel like immediately for accusing somebody and not voting them, and it was one of those where I liked that he had that idea but didn't agree, but then Xel really was a wolf that time.

I don't know if I should be optimistic. That is kind of what I am asking, is did we all just sign up for a setup that we do not actually think is balanced? Or do we accept the task at hand and want to embrace the unique scenario that this, where it could be possible that openness is our advantage? I love to hate this game, Greg, I think you will understand what I mean by that.

Phone can load ffr
Praise be

Anyways I was just in my head
I got in my own head about something yesterday, too
Im alright

I worried I was being annoying with how much I was posting, in short
Thats not really a feeling ive had before, it was strange
I knoe that's not what you said and idk that you would ever say that to me "you're being annoying"

I was just sad suddenly for not a good reason
