Re: TWG CLXXIX: The Third FE Mystery Game Game Thread

Hey man you got a reads list?
Because you're as near Town as can be aside from DBP and a reads from you would be nice

Patience, grasshopper. Though it's still early enough for some to be difficult reads. I like both you and Hakulyte though, and Zenith, Precarious, Charu, and Xelicopter, and maybe Xiz. I still am not crazy about roundbox, Tokzic, who_cares, or flashflash. Non-committal on LightManti, Celirra, ShadoWolfe, and Funnygurl555.

[Precarious]

Re: TWG CLXXIX: The Third FE Mystery Game Game Thread

FFA

A lot of posts. But way more content than I expected; the sheer volume of posts and the flow of the thread caused it to get drowned out for me I guess.

Roundbox null
2) T-Force (TWGma) null
3) blindreper1179 slight scum
4) flashflash account town
5) Xiz town
6) ShadoWolfe null
7) DarkManticoreX2 (LightManticoreX2) town
8) Hakulyte null
9) Funnygurl555 slight scum
10) mellonxcollie (mellon_collie) null
11) Zoshi FreezinIce null
12) mtamburini null
13) MixMasterLar null
14) Precarious null
15) sprucegrit town maybe
16) Xelicopter (alt of XelNya) town
17) Tokzic wolf
18) DaBackPack Innocent Child
19) jessiebessie (TWG The Queen) null
20) who_cares973 town if this is wv
21) Adam33 wolf
22) Celirra town
23) Charu wolf
24) Yoshl (Daikyi) town

Amidst a lot of casual content type posting, there's this. Even if it's made up, it's kind of impressive that someone would straight up commit to reads on everyone that early in a 24 player game. I don't really agree with the leads, but actually saying something about everyone indicates investment, because any question would need to be answerable. Admittedly, just the read means a reason can be sort of reverse-engineered, but this post is either town or a very comfortable wolf.

You only need like 3 words max to explain your stance on someone

But seriously, no.

I would vote for zenith charu Raeko blind funny or mml
I would not support lynching celery roundbox Manti daikyi twgma spruce backpack or mtaburin
Anyone else I would vote if backpack voted them or to save someone in my no lynch group
Or I forgot about them

Again, I like the clarity of thought here, because if nothing else it's traceable. If FFA were to suddenly read “zenith charu Raeko blind funny or mml” all hard town, that would be odd. Having lynch and no lynch groups suggests some degree of world building—but it still is annoying that there's no reason for it. Similarly, the willingness to sheep Backpack is a bit troubling, because it feels more like a wolf strat than a town strat. “Oh, they're town, so why would a wolf ever commit to non-wolf behavior?” But being town doesn't make Backpack correct or incorrect; it just means they're operating in good faith. And abandoning one's own positions when things get squishy is problematic, because it seeks to reduce responsibility for one's own vote.

And yet I still like this post overall, because FFA isn't shy about expressing their ideas. It's clear who he does and doesn't suspect, and why he might vote outside of his wolf range (e.g. to save his no lynch group). Although his is where the lack of reasoning is a problem though, because wolves do have info, and it would be easy to mix town and wolves in both Lynch and No Lynch groups, select a town from the Lynch Team at random, and have the “well I was wrong there, but right here” as an excuse later.

if I think you're a wolf I'm going to look at your interactions as though you are a wolf. Why is this a foreign concept to you?

If you did something towny then I'd have to re-evaluate

FFA definitely doesn't like Charu in this game.

you keep doing you and I'll keep doing me

I get a little suspicious with these kinds of posts since they're almost too self-assured.

Well despite what celery says, charu is a good lynch
Charu

Not sure I agree with this, but there's no question it's internally consistent—Charu and FFA have been at each other all game.

It just seems like "scattershot" because there are so many players in the game
I've got lots of suspicions and I'm not sure who's the best day 1

FFA's most recent post is legitimately the most interesting one they've made the whole game. It speaks truth: 24 players and 185289423423 posts means there's a ton of white noise, and I appreciate someone actually being honest that there might not actually be an “obvious choice” to them. But it comes across as a little strange given FFA's earlier posts—committed reads on everyone, clear scum, null, and town pools. I'm not sure if that's an attempt to soften those reads, or to back away from an aggression that doesn't fit their current world. Null, maybe slightly leaning town because the Charu fight is at least internally consistent, and given their high activity levels seems like a dangerous battle to choose.

I know I've been useless this phase because phoneposting in a 78 page game is misery

I didn't think it would be a problem because I get a computer back on Saturday

but then I rolled ic.......

Re: TWG CLXXIX: The Third FE Mystery Game Game Thread

Re: TWG CLXXIX: The Third FE Mystery Game Game Thread

So, idk how zenith hasn't proved me right to some of you yet, that's surprising.

Mml being wolf here would mean he's developed as a player contextually which i doubt(not a demeaner mml, yoshl is the only person I've seen this from and that's this game)

Why are so many people on about wolf avi being a wolf because they gave us awesome info. That's not something a wolf would do, especially someone not new. It's a ballzy ass move to make that up and be caught after one town sees the shop. That power play is a dead end fast.

Ffa is still my vote. Nothing has changed. He's arrogant like Adam was, but he's not being a dick about it so no one is picking up on it.

Haku is still wolf lean for me. Something about him isn't rubbing correctly, and i know he's a wild card so don't point that out.

Round is still wolf tier, i'd vote him if my vote on ffa stays useless for a D0 vote.

Mostly everyone else is ehhhh with the exception of charu being fluffy and didn't even answer my question.

Elaborate because I saw the meta read on you about contribution on d0 and I guess I could comment on that but I'd like to know what you meant by this.

Post has a few wolf reads tho which is interesting
