Re: TWG Turbo 35: A Small Gathering [GAME THREAD]

raeko is still ignoring this post
that makes me sad
I'm giving you another question: who is the towniest thus far in your eyes?

oh oops I answered that in my mind and didn't type it

probably because I can't remember but I have a vague feeling I've played one or two before? I think we have done it in live TWG a few times too. but idk not enough that they made any impression on me to be able to read this game with

Re: TWG Turbo 35: A Small Gathering [GAME THREAD]

This is try-hard for the first phase and what content we have but probably a townie try-hard. Leetic is a newish player IIRC and I think this is them not knowing where to go in the game. A wolf chat would probably soak up idle thoughts like this so it

I've been playing since 2015 (admittedly with a couple of year-long gaps in between). Which, granted, is still pretty new compared to some of you but still

Fat-thumbed the send button



This has happened and it sucks but from experience keeping inactives around for late stages have never been in towns favor

I've seen town bounce back from dead PRs killed on the first phase, but never from 2 inactives in the Final Three

I don't know if I want to try playing around a PR that isn't playing just simply because they're a Power Role

----

That said, who really is slanking right now?
For Xel it's NAI (Not Alignment Indicative) because it just always how he is. Shit, if he was super active that would mean he was a role that he found personally interesting and for this game it'll be scum. I almost am tempted to clear him on his other wolfy play, but will give him a phase to see how he responds to stuff that shall happen later

For Zenith, IIRC this is their meta always, both roles

I generally do vote out the inactives first phase because they've proven to be an issue moving forward before, but of these two I would only entertain Zenith right now

.....I will not vote yet, though

Granted, there is a point that if the Seer dies N1 this will all be for naught. Still, even one clear is very powerful in this setup due to the numbers we're working with

Re: TWG Turbo 35: A Small Gathering [GAME THREAD]

Probably Lar

what specifically makes him towny to you?
not that I have doubts, I just want to hear a little more than that

Re: TWG Turbo 35: A Small Gathering [GAME THREAD]

;_____;

I will never emotionally recover from that

Oh I was raging at the time, trust me I feel ya

oooooh, what are you inviting us to??

Dinner next Monday. Come meet Lana and play Tekken 8

I feel like Xel wouldn't be bad enough to do this sort of play as seer but yeah you're probably right

Theoretically if he was, he's opted out of leaving a read on D0 before so he would still think the phase for tye role is boring and still dip

It's frustrating

unvote

It's a push

I just caught up with reading actually, seems like the conversation literally spurred up the very moment I left the thread haha.

This is SPICY

He's just playing like how he would normally play and I don't see anything suspicious. Making points about lots of different things and doesn't seem like he's pushing any specific agenda

My bad. I know we've played a few times but somehow had it in my head you were much newer

Blame my old man memory

[roundbox]

Re: TWG Turbo 35: A Small Gathering [GAME THREAD]

I had the same thought about his tone :thinking:

I didn't see this read until now
:thinking: is the same as a "hmmm"
what does it mean??

Dinner next Monday. Come meet Lana and play Tekken 8


This is SPICY

as long as you have a cool fight stick to use, that sounds rad

is it spicy considering he unvoted me and also acknowledged being caught up?

You're not wrong but there's more to consider when you have several players not engaging the game

Every inactive is just one more mislynch for wolves that get easier for them to obtain every phase

Plus actives are constantly giving info, and info allows them to be solved. If there's a wolf in the actives, he is literally giving you a chance to play the game and solve it accurately. You can always catch them in later phases

An inactive exist on more or less the same state all through the game

Re: TWG Turbo 35: A Small Gathering [GAME THREAD]

I feel kind of lost simply due to not having any night action to really steer where I want to be thinking or looking between interactions because at the moment, interactions are simple nudges at best, couple of comments here and there and some prods where people might lean a vote.

Leetic came in strong and talkative which is nice to see, but looking at both worlds I'm looking at a 50/50 actively talking and that's it
Roundbox is the same but presents more town vibed and orientated imo

Raeko/MML floating in that talky vt vibe, MML a bit more calm and drawn back than usual

Haze with a Z is also a 50/50 that I can't meta read because first time playing with you (hiii welcome!)

I still want to see what Xel meant by possibly getting violent lol

Re: TWG Turbo 35: A Small Gathering [GAME THREAD]

Ngl I assumed yall have played together a bunch and that xelnya doing that was normal. I thought them popping back was a good sign though

I'm what you'd call rusty. I would not self describe my later posts as "popping back" though.

I see it as more wolfy than towny, yes

I also just don't like it and if we are taking basically a shot in the dark anyways on D1, why not eliminate the person who is providing the least information

You know precisely what my original comment of "I'll try later" meant.

But since people want to play silly:

The point of that post is to openly say "Hey, this game is literally mechanics, and I know what they are, but you can't use them till tomorrow"

1. No Free Seer check.
2. Lar already spelt out how this game works. Except he messed it up. Which is notably out of character.
- Both by saying he was going to "keep it close to his chest" and by doing the "if I am the seer" too early. You're begging for free townie cred and it's so obvious I audibly laughed.
3. My opening post is a free worm on a string to get people to interact with me.

Anyone who jumps me for that post is on my D0 vote list, because that post is incredibly obvious.

Meanwhile, Lar has messed up an easy early game, Raeko has "Tee hee I forgot" and you just let them walk away.

D0 is leave a thing, vote who bites in this format.

Then why does Lar act like it is normal of xelnya to do nothing d1 but none of you?

This post, I like a lot though. Not because me, but because this is not the kind of information most people would fish for.

his play is objectively anti-town

For Xel it's NAI (Not Alignment Indicative) because it just always how he is. Shit, if he was super active that would mean he was a role that he found personally interesting and for this game it'll be scum. I almost am tempted to clear him on his other wolfy play, but will give him a phase to see how he responds to stuff that shall happen later

I can't really comment on myself in a productive manner, so this is pure conjecture on my end, but I don't really agree, there's only three roles and none of them are interesting. This format's great but to say it's interesting unless seer dies tonight would be a bit of a stretch.

Re: TWG Turbo 35: A Small Gathering [GAME THREAD]

Please elaborate

I think that would be less helpful for Town, so let's see where you actually go first before I comment on it further

as long as you have a cool fight stick to use, that sounds rad

Pad for life
But also want to get a hitbox for PS5 sometime. I use to play stick but after my last one broke I just focused the time on IIDX

I'm down~

Then we can get drunk and watch Ayu concert DVDs!! yeahhhh!!

Fuck yeah that sounds bitchin'

Damn I really hate we're on opposite sides of the world sometimes.....
