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

I guess I've been in the community for a long time now really, but I spent a long time being, you know, a newcomer, trying to wrap my head around the lingo and the meta reads and all. It's hard to put into words what it feels like to read that my mentor, the person who I spent all those games building my world views from theirs, say they think I'm better than them at town.

I have slightly different strengths than you, I think. I at least think of myself as stylistically adjacent to Haku, where I don't necessarily have the charisma and composure to lead, but I will always drive information and I will always drive re-evaluation. I will always try to say how I got to where I got, because I want people to engage with it and tell me how I'm wrong, that's how we get better. People probably trust me more than you too because I've never burned them for it, and that decreases the pool of wolves for them. I believe I get killed at night so often because I am hard to vote off and because I help town play more cohesively, because I bring out strengths in others, more than I get killed for necessarily being right. It does feel good every once in a while when I'm very right, but yeah.

It's from our dynamic really that I felt so strongly about Ben too, is that I felt Ben would have to be actually playing out of his fucking mind to come back rusty and post like he was as a wolf with certain emotional nuances he was hitting, and you actually know him really well and were getting to the same spot but based on different posts. He engaged with my manifesto in a way that was real to me. Even if you were a wolf, you believed your town read on him. That's how I saw it.

It's not very often I actually get to be a counterwagon. One of the last times, it was your fault, I believe. It makes it a little more emotional when one of your top town reads gets voted off over you. It's my turn, really, to be the one mislynched. I said it before, but I think potentially multiple wolves saw him as more low hanging fruit, an easier place to justify having had their vote. I am forever on a revenge tour, I want to make the wolf team suffer as much as I do trying to find them. I want them to regret having the audacity to leave me alive with this combination of people.

You wanted to know how I saw the future? I said it before, but I thought the game was starting Friday morning my time and not Saturday. I had Friday off, got my latest town role PM. I had felt that I might be ready for another wolf rand this time, as scary as this playerlist is, because I do want another chance someday at it, to see if I can be part of making a beautiful puzzle for you all to stress over the way you all have done for me all these years. So I was a little disappointed.

I was supposed to be writing an essay in relation to the qualification I'm doing, and I did write most of it that day, but I also ended up writing a WAY longer version of the manifesto than what I actually posted in the thread, like three times as long, because I was kind of trying to work through in my head what it means to be town in a setup without blues, because I have never done it before. My fear was basically was that town would fall into despair over feeling like they have nothing going for them, and not really get engaged with the game, and if we don't want it as much as the wolves do, we lose the information war and it's a crapshoot. So it was an interesting thought experiment for me, and something I was excited to be able to use as an icebreaker for d0 because I truly think the sooner we get to genuine game-related discussion, the better.

I would argue that I would have been thinking about completely different things, had I finally rolled wolf for the first time in several years. As you note in this post, I am unfortunately the most polarised player in this community. Voted off unceremoniously D0 as an outted wolf D0 spamming gold stinger cop gifs, never been voted off as a town player. It's not that I just like didn't put the time in or that I made one big slip or anything in Kiss and Kill. It was actually that I was super hungover and not feeling well, and I decided to force a bunch of posts hoping to seem off the cuff and power through it because that's what I assume I would've done if I rolled town. But then, because I was nervous and not at my best, I got a ton of negative attention for the uncanny valley of my posting. I had limited practice at defending myself from previous games because typically that's not an issue for me. So then I got shot, voted off, and doomed my very competent and wonderful wolf partner from what could have been probably an easy win if she'd rolled wolf with almost anyone else. Anyway, I imagine I might've spent Friday planning about how I might be able to correct my past mistakes, ease myself in and mimic my townplay without putting myself in a position to be likely to get negative attention and crumble from it.

Sorry, did I ever actually answer how I saw the future? Well, partly it's just statistics. 25% of the players D0 are wolves in this, and so because we don't talk about literally every player all the time, we are going to run into times where people are just talking about the wrong things because there's too many possibilities. I genuinely think it can come across to wolves like it's happening because because they're playing well, and it doesn't hurt if they are. But mostly it's just math, the game would be boring if we could overcome that math so easily.

Partly it's that history repeats itself. Lying is a cognitive load and it's a burden over these long phases. I think wolves tend to distance and give townreads on town more often than people assume because of it, because they are biased by the answers they already have. When they try to emulate their town game, they don't emulate all their flaws. A couple of people said that bit was fluffy. To me, it's a fundamental truth about the game that I think could be important in how this one plays out too.

xoxo, star-crossed

see like
this is part of why I wanted to talk before the game began, how am I supposed to be so honest with this. It is tough to take this and attempt to respond to it while maintaining... normalcy? I am not sure what the word is.

There was once a game where someone had the role that let me talk with them all night phase. We talked for hours, genuinely a lot about the game, like for at least 4 hours straight we talked about the game in that discord room. We basically ran out of things to talk about that were game related, and we talked about some family stuff that, through complete coincidence, we had something very unusual, unfortunate and uncommon happen to our respective younger brothers. It was some real shit, in short.

We talked for I think it was 7 hours in total. Neither of us got much sleep. At the very end, when things were winding down, he mentioned that, on the previous night phase, the player he had targeted had told him that they were a power role.

It completely changed the course of night actions for my wolf team, and we absolutely decimated town that night with what we learned because of that (I was able to be in both wolfchat and this chat at the same time). It created a scenario where not only did the town have to kill only wolves for the rest of the game, because of the nature of the power roles, they needed to kill the wolves in a (relative) specific order. I didn't even know the term for this, I have since learned it is called viglo (vigilante or lose). In my mind, I called it "Getting Fucked." We won the next day, we didn't even lose another wolf, even though we actually missed a win where we could have insta'd a non-vigilante wolf earlier in the day.

It obviously felt good to win the game, but it genuinely had me messed up that we learned the last bit of info that possibly could have ruined us after I was talking to this person for this amount of time, and after we talked about real shit for so long. I talked to him immediately after the game ended, and he said he had in his mind to tell me that role thing at any point; he had already been thinking I was town, otherwise he wouldn't have targeted me. I... don't know if this is true. Perhaps. I'll never truly know, and maybe it is better to just believe him.

Sometimes, the waters of the game get muddied. It can feel not so good.

My point is, I love this game, and as you mentioned earlier, I sometimes love to hate it. Lying can become a burden. I have upset some of my friends by playing this game. Creating the beautiful puzzle is one of my favorite things to do, and part of why I think I eventually came to prefer wolf to town in some setups (normally I didn't really care what I rolled)

I have made people cry, I have had friends not talk to me for a little while, and though I am truly thankful it hasn't happened to me, I have seen others friendships disintegrate.

It fucking sucks. In a similarish game to werewolf, I cried a lot because I felt I hurt people, it was part of why I stayed away from this for a while after. I felt like an asshole. I knew it was part of the game, I knew that such things are only meant to be in passing, but I knew I was going to upset people, and I did them anyway, and in short, it made me feel like an asshole. I had to do it at the same time.

It was sickening.

I hope you find rolling wolf to be a joyful thing whenever it occurs. It almost always is, at least for me. It just sucks sometimes to tell lies.

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

I will bury my townread of you for this post within this wall of text, whoever can stomach the post will find it. If I say you can be a wolf or something, know that I don't mean it. It is possible that I don't even take that line. I don't know how I am meant to explain my townread on you for this post beyond "radical honesty." No one believed my read on ben and it was at least on the same branch of the tree, but obviously it wasn't the same exact thing. I don't think you can be a wolf this game, I think I got there. If you are, you probably have some off-site experience that allowed you to level up like the time chamber in Dragon Ball (I never really saw it).
If not, that must've been one HECK of a hangover in that turbo, only a tiny bit of a joke.

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

We've all marveled at how remarkable it is for you to have rolled villager to this proportion. I haven't really thought about how it can have had this effect on your psyche. I, too, know that you are probably imbalanced as a player, but like
we don't actually know. I'm sure deep in my memory was the fact that you were hung over in that wolf game. Genuinely, I think you'll do well whenever you roll wolf. If there is anything, I think it is a testament to the game moderators on FFR actually fucking randomizing the game instead of just assigning the roles they want, which makes me feel good. You're too smart, too wordy and too adept to not succeed whenever the day should come. Just like how you postulated that, if I am a wolf, I believed my townread on ben, and I think that it would be true if I was a wolf, yeah. If I can do it, you can too. There's no way you can't learn.

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

I don't remember the time it was my fault that you were a counterwagon, unless you're slyly saying that was this game. It was probably stupid then, too. At least it was long enough ago for most everyone else to have forgotten. I thought I had more to say here, I guess I don't.

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

I... still don't get how you predicted the future with such accuracy. It is one thing to say "yeah town is going to mislynch" but this was "times will appear good, but they will turn bad" with parlays and like
you can claim that's just playing the odds, but it doesn't make any sense. I do not think most mislynches are like what happened with Ben. It is a personal philosophy of mine that "no one deserves anything," something I was kind of shocked to see I had implanted the mindset of within my scrabble rival that I was telling you about. Ben didn't deserve what happened, as DBP commented earlier. It was more tragic than usual. If you can tell that just from the flow, you have that mah jong sense that I hear myth about.

I knew it didn't matter how you did it, but it has shaken me, truly.

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

Do me a favor and don't post like this to me again in this game, I feel horrible not responding to them but I might have to not respond in the future. This doesn't really help anyone a ton, it is nice to have you shored up, but I can just read that and get there. I guess I can take some solace in knowing that, had my vote for ben mattered, it would have led to this, which is what I wanted and hoped would occur.

I find your wording of "get to be a counterwagon" very funny, as if it is a privilege.

The last thing I'll say is, I've thought you were a better town player than me for years. I'd swear I have told you as much. Perhaps you thought I might've been humble at the time or some such and not meant it; I did.

[the sun fan]

I'd hoped to come back with more
that post took a lot out of me

[the sun fan]

I can't even really begin to say how much I feel like the wolves are cowards; the raeko kill was maybe even a little bit cowardly in my mind at this point

I think I can rally myself to inflict such misery upon them for their cowardice

this got me thinking that when raeko does roll town, she is often killed pretty early due to people heavily town-reading her. at least that feels like it has been my experience with the few games ive played with her. maybe theres someone on wolf team who saw the same pattern of her being read as "universally town" as recent games? and wanted to nip it in the bud before she got even more credit?

kinda aside from just leetic (our lord and savior last game), raeko was universally townread as a wolf
idk

I'm fucked up rn star cast a spell on me all the way from Angleterre.

literally I don't know what I'm saying anymore you're even like probably right I'm just fucked up

[XelNya]

I've spoiled because this post is fairly long. It's not a "thoughts on every post" and some reads adjust without specific mention.

--33--
621 is an ok post
- "I think it was unlikely that ben would avoid being at least somewhat solidly scumread in the next phase, at minimum. I think star will be heavily scrutinized today, and her alignment more positively determined."
I know we like, are reading star so differently here, is there a specific like, mannerism you can direct my deer in the headlighted ass to because I am MISSING SOMETHING ya'll see and I don't
because I spent all of D0 have star as the unspoken ride or die (if me defend posting wasn't the indicator of this- I dunno what to tell you.)
Like what did I miss
625 is fine
626 why so paranoid
629 feels like a carbonated drink going down a little wrong
634 i'm bit jarred still on the star hate this game, so this post is a negative for me (has hindsight of other current day posts, do account for this.)
--34--
650 this post super bothers me still, because I cannot in history of games i've been in / skimmed I've seen dbp be this sad drunk posting. It's like world's most obvious bait to jump him for steering / making the main case.
651 This post is super dense in PRODUCTIVE town posting.
653 The contribution i'd make to this push is that dbp has gone from "charismatic bravado" to pouting drunk. The contrast to the actions / results doesn't steer anywhere and feels like a barrier against a harder push.
656 I was with you till the last sentence, but that'd be more semantical than a point of argument.
660 I do not like this agreement with bugkid here but i'll revist if need be later.

- Wanna state the only solid town lean here for me today is star, and haku has some points, but hasn't hit threshhold quite yet. Sunfan is a little above null but barely enough to note. dbp stonks are inversed gas prices rn.

-- 35 --
667 / 668 I find myself in agreement here, though, not for the bottom part of haku's post, and more similar to freezin's.
676 I wanna touch on this later~
685 I like this post a little less? It has me in the first half, loses me in the second because the implications of the kill are important, on par with the "why" because frankly let's be real
that kill is so notable, that enough people are surprised by it
what that tells me is some degree of these:
- she was killed for where she was looking around
- she was killed for her steering of town being a problem
- the information taken by taking her out is valuable to the scum team
- framing I guess, i'm the wrong person to toss this out, but let's just be fair here
- the nature of the kill ununites the town

If I throw my speculation to the void it's 3 and 5. I couldn't explain 5, but I feel we're sort of there.
687 I assign no value to this post, and I don't think other people should either.
694 I disagree but w.e.

- Star still leaned town
- sunfan stonks down a little
- zenith is... null but can trend a solid 90 degrees down easily
- bugkid is null, could go either way, i am torn on wanting to iso them / amlazy
- Haku maintains current read

--36--
716 this vote push is solid regardless of my feels either way
--37--
719 your whole post is kind of a circle jerk and I hate you for it
--38--
724 It's hard to explain the Zenith pushes other than
ya'll feel like you're creating a nothing burger because the concept in his post is fine
727 stonks down
730 YOU ACTUALLY CARE. YOU JUST ASKED ABOUT IT, THE EXPLANATION IS IN HIS POST AND IN THE ORIGINAL FUCK UP POST
DO YOU NOT READ
DOOOOOOO YOUUUUUUUUU
735
- I agree with the framejob point only as the overarching premise for the kill, and not that it doesn't contribute (I feel you meant this but I'm gonna point it out.)
- : l
- the rest of this post is fair
740 I take issue with your framing of me because I know for a fact by now you know I literally made a post defending you
you can't say I was too pansy to vote you / do my own thing, I literally was saying with defending you (and later in my ben vote) I felt you were town AT THE VERY LEAST IF YOU ARE HARD OF READING ABILITY town enough to not be on my see gone list
and it's worse when you account for just how many people wanted to see you go for a while
this is your first negative post to me, and it feels gross because it's actually about me
BUT THE REST IS SOLID so am conflicted

- Star stonk down slightly (town still.)
- sunfan stonk is holding (null trending town.)
- haku stonk holds (null trending town, harder to change because of Haku mentioning they'll be fairly afk.)
- dbp stonk holds (scum leaning)

--38--
745 (btw thanks for grabbing the vote counts)
Of the 5 votes theres a few things I should glean into skimming through how dbp enters the ben wagon, and how shado joins it, I need to reaquint myself with it, and hatred deserves a mention but frankly I've got zero idea how to read intot hat so I'd rather focus on where I camn MAYBE provide value. (homework for tomorrow.)
sunfan's original response is enough to not make me feel going there is productive, but i'd entertain it if his posts trend downwards
757 the noncommital hewre is noteworthy if what I said above happens, more a note for myself than anything
760 my contribution to this statement is I guess, if you see some of my comments above and it changes anything for you let me know? I see what you're saying though, I wanna just town and move on but I feel like it's a disservice to the issues caused by last eod to do so, even if the explanation is fine / makes sense.

--39--
769
- I don't quite like the (what feels to me) grace read on freezin, I agree he's not been scummy but the needle is like, twitch but not moving, and based off your other content, it feels a bit weak here
- gregglepoo read is fair
- haku read is fine
- I don't quite mesh with bugkid yet, can be convinced though (will be skimming later, I don't see solving their slot as priority though. I am admittedly hung-up a bit on yesterday, so do grain of salt bias assume here.)
- dbp i want to see how this read progresses tomorrow so I've got no comment

I kind of sit in this state by this point:

(Higher = More town. Below line = Null.)

I've left myself out for obvious reasons, but in the interest of contributing more:

If I pushed at myself for a moment though:
- It's worth thinking on if the Raeko kill is motivated by my slot being how it is.
- It's worth critique for the benguin flip being bad, and being one of the early voters it's totally fair.
- I think everyone else would maybe read into my post defending star, but I don't know the utility, but being my biggest contribution other than benguin vote / light? push, it feels worthy of mention.

I think this is the best food for thought I can offer.

- I want to reread shado a bit.
- I need to reread dbp and make a formal push if my read goes what the early points of today inspire me to think about d0 in 20/20 hindsight.

(I also fucked up my page number at some point so it might be wrong past like, 36.)

I'm going to goddamn bed now.

[the sun fan]

xel I'm reading this later, just know that because I play on 80 posts per page, I have no idea what page is what after a certain point

anyway I look forward to the shadowolfe read

[star-crossed]

Xel, I might not actually have time to respond to specific points in it til later but I wanted to give you a read receipt. Thank you for the feedback on my reads post specifically, as well.

I actually iso'd Zenith first because he is getting votes at the moment.

It's beyond an anti-town mindset from the very beginning; an immediate outed distrust in town, and Raeko is the only one to have apparently noticed this (I didn't even notice this, clearly).

Well I think Shado for example was aware of this post and discussion between the two, it came up later with him pressing raeko and it was something you disagreed with him in relation to.

It's "anti-town" depending on what your theory standpoint is about going after inactives, I guess? I took it more as postulating that there may be a slight strategic advantage in this setup to be quieter as a wolf, which I have trouble as seeing very alignment indicative in and of itself. Like, obviously going after inactives can be weaponised if your team happens to be more active, etc.

I will look forward to seeing how that ties into your analysis of what Haku actually did at the end of the day, I suppose.

in all seriousness though, game, how are we feeling about sunfan having nearly double the top 2nd poster's posts? Are we universally townreading him or....? Cause this to me is a data point I like to keep in the back of mind when I'm looking for clues in previous phases and having such a presence with no town backing behind it is often cause for concern as well as a myriad of other considerations.

I have given my opinion on him by now, but I am actually not too clear what your own is, like you almost seem to be starting from an assumption of being against him because it's the vote you are defaulting to from very early on.

Seeing it on paper, the position Ben is in and what can be inferred from it makes me feel like town's forced to deal with this right here and now, because as you pointed out, Ben has two outs given one of two hypotheticals play out here.

Dare I ask, what would our repercussions look like if we let this go until tomorrow? Do you think wolves position would become too overwhelming or could you see this naturally resolving?

I genuinely can't decide if this is good analysis for end of day or if it's slightly tone deaf to be posting it 10 minutes before end of day given what the actual wagons are and that you were then paranoid about movement in votes, so I am quoting it for a second opinion.

[Hakulyte]

So, tonight is my EoD. I will miss the last 18 hours or so due to work.
I'll be here for the next one assuming I'm still in this game.

Benguino asked me about the low post count players and I clarified that Quality > Quantity and that they needed to lack both.

A player could have 5 posts in this game and be top town.

I just generally dislike low activity as a playstyle in a setup where there's no PR to protect like here. fmpov, low activity is like a weapon to protect PRs by making wolves guess who's intentionally withholding information. We're not here this game.

It just feels wasted to me and it's stopping me from properly making a town circle to finish my process of elimination. More posts, especially with players that tends to make mistakes helps me see a correlation and build confidence about scenarios like "oh X player tend to make Y mistake, but it's not wolfy because of their playstyle etc".

In case it's not clear, a player exactly like Zenith right now would benefit a lot from posting more to help me get him out of the "null zone".
By keeping the post count low, it's making me fail to see patterns that would help me town read you better. It just makes me feel like you need to withhold information in a setup that has no reason to do that.

[Hakulyte]

ShadoWolfe is looking better this phase imo. I think he clarified most concerns I had about him while talking to Star. His posts appears genuine to me. We just thinks differently, but his headspace is more somewhere that makes sense to me now.
tldr; I don't think voting ShadoWolfe is a good idea anymore.

I want everyone to take note of ShadoWolfe's take on DBP. I do also remember him going "Detective DBP" and being more all in on opinions to make something happen. I think the how of "how he ended up playing Day 0" can be overlooked to some extent because to some degree, he needs to be consistent with his own meta. I just hate it 'cause I've been wolf with him before and it's so ridiculously similar to these games that I don't know what to trust. I hope he swings back into the game and hopefully do something similar as he did the first phase.
tldr; Pending back to null for me. unvote I will probably miss DBP's activity during the end of this phase. You guys will have to figure it out during that time.

I have Freezin as town meta wise, but Freezin is someone I cannot confidently solve when he rolls wolf. If someone ever wants to investigate in that direction, be my guest, but I'm kind of defaulting him to town because it's too early for that imo.

I think Star is town, but I also think Star is being mislead into wagons that are likely to be wrong. Otherwise, I think Star would have been voted out or even NK'd.

I have a meta town read on bugkid for pmuch the same reason as DBP.

I've seen Zenith's vote, but I want him to know that behind my posts, all I do is project my own insecurities towards others. They don't need to act upon it. I'm just hoping to see more content and that this new content helps me get where I want to be.

This phase feels wrong here.

its literally the first phase, and i was far from super active, so..what gives?

and freezin, you belive in sunfan strongly enough from d0 to parrot his votes????

Low activity doesn't make you town. Information doesn't win the game. Lynching wolves wins the game. Why would you throw away your only chance to impact the game ? botchi
You don't vote players to get "information", you vote players to lynch a wolf. If you don't vote, you're doing the equivalent of removing your only winning option from the game or you don't care about it because you're not trying to lynch a wolf.

You're also stopping others from knowing what would have been your real voting intentions 'cause you never committed to it.

I won't lecture you, I know you know that this is bad, even if you aren't sure

essentially, none of your words had any weight yesterday

come this phase, you (and everyone else), needs to vote, because that is how town kills wolves, and that is how the wolves blend in with town

I am not after information related to flips. I, frankly, think it is a very bad way to try and play the game, ESPECIALLY on d0. Wolves do whatever they can to stop information from making sense based on flips, especially on FFR

I wanted to kill you (and still kind of do) because I thought you were scummy, and that made me think you would flip red, and that's kind of the beginning and end of it.

This post and the one before it does help me, where you're talking to me specifically. That wasn't really present the way I wanted before. When you thought I had my vote on you last game when you replaced in, you were very clearly taken aback, and your reactions haven't been rising to that level this game, that was probably the biggest reason why

and inactivity is and probably always will be a reason *for* me to vote someone, not a reason against

if you're town, we can work on getting there
as I said before, you are not currently my top kill so
there is that

W/W interaction ? Why it's okay ? Everyone would vote me out if I did this. Do you have some prior botchi meta read or something ?

[Hakulyte]

[Hakulyte]

I think that's all I have for this point in the game.

Xel and Zenith are 50/50s for me. I don't know what to make of their slots. I feel like only wolf flips would help me lean them one way or another.

I think that covers everyone on my end for this phase.

[Hakulyte]

I'm probably wrong somewhere here. It's more something to consider based on my own process of elimination. jsayin'

There's probably some middle ground that's the better answer.

I was going to get on my computer but I'm not feeling it atm, maybe next phase

Time to crystalize my reads

Town \ town lean aka I don't look here today:

the sun fan
Haku
Star crossed
bugkid666

Null but I need to do work to fix it

ShadoWolfe
XelNya

Null to Wolf lean and they need to do work to fix it

DaBackpack
Botchi246
Hateandhatred

I probably only kill in the bottom category today.

On that note unvote

[FreezinIce]

Oh I forgot zenith, he's in the bottom category

Xel and Zenith are 50/50s for me. I don't know what to make of their slots. I feel like only wolf flips would help me lean them one way or another.

I think that covers everyone on my end for this phase.

Do you buy when zenith lashed out and explained away his weird behavior?

You can answer yes, no, or not sure

Sunfan vs zenith seems like a conflict you would take a side on but unless I missed it I don't see that you did

Yes, the frustration over it seems real to me.

I didn't have the courage to iso 200 posts by Sunfan and scrutinize everything. I liked some things, I hated others like the part with botchi I've quoted above.

When it comes to Zenith, it's more that I have a low game count with him and he doesn't seems to be aware of how I play all that much. So, I'm not surprised at all to see what I see. The problem for me is that the same applies on my end. I just blank out when I try to think at his alignment. It's like I don't know what to look into to build any confidence.
