@gold stinger

I get the idea of a lynch order based on votes, I think it's a good idea but just not with me at the front

I think yoshi or even dragon would be better for first choices

it means isolating one person's posts

dragonmega you really have to read from a standpoint that they've never played a game of TWG before, and whether or not they would have received assistance in playing the game through wolfchat in d0.

Antori and ShyYoshiGuy are both playing this game from a mechanical standpoint and they both aren't really reading why people are leaning the way they are. I mean, ShyYoshiGuy voting me is basically the pinnacle of that.

@MN what's your thoughts on my dragonmega read? ShyYoshiGuy didn't really see it and thought it was out there enough to vote me, Raeko can't see it

Re: jTWG LXXXIV: 8 New Players and Raeko Game Thread

pointing specifically to this post

My problem with wolf votes on dragonmega this phase is because literally the entire game dragonmega has been playing a game where they do not know what certain things or opinions on plays are, and are doing wolfy things/making bad plays without even realizing it. Even if the argument is "But Shadowgod is also a brand new player and also made bad plays and doesn't know certain things", it doesn't change that dragonmega didn't know what a read was after the flip when Shadowgod did. I feel like if there was some level of confusion on how to read things in the thread, Shadowgod would have at least assisted that much getting their wolf partner on board.

I realize this. To be honest I’ve seen both of them make simple decisions based on little to no information. When MN made his giant post, I wanted to support and maybe switch votes, but I kind of sensed it was a bait to see who would switch votes right away, and seeing Yoshi do just that kind of confirmed that. It was mainly me concerned that I wouldn’t be able to give valid reasons for why I switched or anything like that, because I don’t have a solid read on Antori or anything, I mainly voted because he was like the third person to kind of heavily read into the dead wolf’s read on me and it was getting annoying.

I understand the mechanics at this point. I’m just trying to figure out the mindsets and how people interpret things before I post things, because essentially anyone here from my perspective can be a wolf and seeing each other twist and turn votes/leads is making me nervous to come out of my shell and say anything I’m not 100% confident in.

The only thing that makes dragon look bad in my eyes is Shadow_God's read on them. Dragon doesn't know the lingo, but it doesn't affect my opinion at all, since it's both so easy to fake and so probable to be true...

I just think you're putting a bit too much stock into wolf chat interactions. Shadow wouldn't have been able to predict that happening after his own flip, there's no way he could have coached dragon on what "read" meant if it just hadn't come up in their chat

especially if they are both clueless wolf chat wouldn't really help much.

I think being clueless is pretty NAI in itself, since someone wouldn't know any better just by rolling a certain alignment other than a few things from wolf chat (but again I don't think we should put too much stock into that)

Re: jTWG LXXXIV: 8 New Players and Raeko Game Thread

Yoshi is worrying me a lot

Sanzath, I try to see GS's world, but I feel you are zoning out too much. From what I recall, he made some believable calls. I don't know how to interpret his vote on h&h, and I'm very afraid of his wolf game so I try to keep my eyes peeled... There are just so many more things sticking out from other players that I have a hard time focusing on sanz. Again, I can see him being wolf. That's because he plays exactly the same, whether he is wolf or town. We will catch Sanz by understanding the intent of his posts.

Honestly, Antori and dragon voting each other makes me think "Confused towns". It makes me want to focus my attention elsewhere

sorry, I'll try to stop using so many random terms I keep forgetting this is a jTWG

Honestly I just can't.

I truly think dragon didn't know enough about the game going into d0 eod. A lot of their posts give off generic wolf vibes and bad suggestions for game plays, not to mention a lack of TWG lingo.

And Sanzath wolf leaning Yoshi and then exerting pressure on Antori via possible back & forth with shadowgod, which:

if you're willing to consider the scenario that the conversation between Shadowgod and Antori is fabricated, then you should also take into consideration the possibility of the conversation between Shadowgod & Yoshi being fabricated, which didn't even happen because Yoshi was not around to post.

scum leaning Antori from that back and forth would mean town leaning Yoshi for me.
