TWG Turbo 38: Africa Feeble:mind Metaphor Game Thread

[bugkid666]

i also take major responsibility for losing this game because not only did i vote freezin super early during lylo i also forgot i had a possible vigi shot until i reread my role like 2 hrs ago. that was the real reason i described it as passive earlier. i would never describe a vigi shot as passive regardless of circumstance lol. whoops!

i'm bad at twg <3333

star's idea of putting phase start/end times in the initial PMs is something I wish I thought of back when Obama was in office
what an obviously good idea

[the sun fan]

botchi's death really threw my like theme of the game having private chat shenanigans (this was part of my rationalization for making night phases more active like star wanted)

I attribute this to me balancing poorly; I was definitely trying to use all the ingredients in the kitchen with this one. I feel frankly embarrassed that I didn't foresee botchi's death breaking wayward's role; I know I am rusty, but that is pretty inexcusable.

I'll dial it back next mystery game, whenever the hell that is.

goodnight gang this was fun. i hope we all learned something here today, like how to read your role pms properly!

[bugkid666]

at least i wasn't vanilla wolf i guess

last thing for tonight

I think raeko should have known that zenith was her partner, probably?? After n1 where she had been given her partner's role PM and then being presented with the option to join a private chat

it seems like wolves could've linked up there, and didn't

For some reason the idea of lost wolves just slipped thru my awareness

I honestly thought you were lock clear because of no wolf chat. Oops. I can say I should've known because of how slow you were taking things and not leading town but that's just hindsight, you played a good game. Both wolves did

I'm glad that my initial read of you was correct, I was kind of forced to scumread you and it didn't really sit right the whole phase. Oof

Lucky for them and unlucky for me, I would've picked up on it if they had.

I think sunfan deserves a round of applause for having the courage and moral fortitude to correct an injustice that has existed in FFRTWG since its inception. Finally taking a stand and asserting that Yes, Fruit Vendors Can be Wolves Too

Love wins 🍑

I knew Zenith was my partner but because it was the first night I was SUPER paranoid and thought maybe there is a town version of the same role?

when I got botchi's flip I knew botchi was the town "chat" role and for sure Zenith was my partner but by that point it was too late to privately chat

I almost just typed WOLF as soon as he said "get jailed sucker" and was going to spam some wolf emotes but I'm so glad I didn't cause that would have outted us to Freezin. I wasn't even thinking like that I was being paranoid about Zenith's role

[mellon_collie]

GG everybod!! this was a super fun game for me! It was really interesting to try to keep my post count up without it being suspicious. Don't think I've played many games where I was the top poster for multiple phases so that was kinda weird!

And I loved picking the fruits, we need more fruit vendors or random item giving roles lol

[FreezinIce]

Wolf fruit vendor is such a goated role.

Funny enough, in Subaru and I's chat I actually asked if he was a wolf straight up and told him if he were I would have kept his secret for him, all to get some wolf chat going. In hindsight, I'm glad because getting chat logs is kind of crazy.

I'm also glad I caught myself and backed off of you though, I think there was a turning point in my attack that made me realize you were most likely my partner out of the remaining players.

The only thing I didn't like about this was not being able to communicate kills, being the only wolf that could send in kills was nerve-wracking
