jTWG LXX: Flash Squadron - Game thread

[YoshL]

oh and a note to new people, it's better to post than to not post because you're scared.

essentially, we want to make the best decisions possible when making our lynches, because it's the only way that we can kill wolves in this game. by not saying anything, you're basically handing yourself to the rest of the players as a wild-card, and it makes it really tough, especially come later in the game. so just post whatever; if you haven't noticed, alot of this has been pretty conversational, sans mashi's super mega post and stuff. please post, it really helps town

unless you're not town then, see mashi's signature

Can someone sub in for me seeing as it's obvious Yosh doesn't want me to play, even though technically he shouldn't even be in this game, and I'm going to get killed for simply not "being liked".

[YoshL]

well the biggest thing is you're not looking at my real motivation behind pushing you, and you're assuming you're going to die, 2 things that you need to improve on. until then, keep trying! better luck next time

Just wanted to throw that in there for the newer players. Since wolves are wolves, it is sometimes to their benefit to lie and deliberately spread misinformation throughout the town. On the flip side, it's also possible for humans to make mistakes regarding their leans, opinions, ideas, strategies, etc. So it's everyone's responsibility to judge which of the two cases it is; everyone should just remember that both cases exist and that "wrong" does not equal "wolf".

[YoshL]

currently, there's no activity other than me spouting stuff at red balsyter and fg saying stuff and mashi saying intelligent stuff

current reads, red blaster is lock clear for d0 in my opinonion. unfortunately, lynching from inactives becomes increasingly more appealing, however, it probably one of the more worse courses of action for us, because it gives us like no information.

I still looked back at alot of previous games, and fg, you're really posting a lot more than usual i think, and i think it's a little slip-up that you're just trying to play off now, by continuing to do what you're doing. it's a little alarming I think

also i'm getting alarm bells about dfr, who had close to the second most posts, although each one was pretty much junk, and ass soon as that's mentioned that he has alot of posts, he's disappeared. potential godfather material, but it's really early and that's probably a pretty big stretch for now

i'm asking you to examine me. i'm asking you to tell me why you think i put a vote on you. if you're immediately going to attack everyone who attacks you and claim that they're a wolf, you're actually going to get nowhere in the game. Why is attempting to get you to do some closer analysis wolfy in your eyes? tell us fully what you're thinking, and help us understand what the fuck is going on in your brain lol

...................................................
yosh you're wrong about me this game and it's getting pretty annoying that people are misinterpreting my playstyle in a jtwg where meta shouldn't be a thing

i post tons of white noise when i have free time and play twg

does anyone not remember the hydra game

or for god's sake any phase that i was alive before the hydra game excluding the villains game because my laptop borke and i was pretending to be an inactive
or the fact that i go out of my way to harass people in oot games, and those games might've been the games you've looked at where i didn't have as many posts

red you should take a chill pill. there is a reason for why yosh is pushing you, and just because you're getting grilled for a bit doesn't mean we're all going to lynch you. reading you town because of what happened though

[Funnygurl555]

was hoping that reuben would comment on yosh x red lobster cat fight

The scene in the briefing room was a tense one. The squadron was only a short time away from undergoing their first ever mission and tension was high. It didn't matter what anyone said to the others, nothing was getting through the grim faces amongst the pilots.

"All units, report to your ships and prepare for takeoff."
The ship's computer spoke with an eerily calm tone. There was an audible gulp from more than one throat as one-by-one, each member of Flash Squadron headed to their respective X-Wings unsure of how their plan would go... Or if anyone would see any of their newfound friends ever again...

[YoshL]

goood goooooood everything is falling into place now........

[YoshL]

hory shit we have until monday

[Red Blaster]

Regarding Funny, I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doub for now. Obviously with it being the holidays and not mid-semester obviously she'd be more active.
All of my games with her have been during the school year so I can't really comment on her post frequency being odd.

I'm just saying, I saw your post and thought that someone could misinterpret it to mean that it was implying that if someone is wrong, it means they are not wolf.

I then went on to explain the subtle nuance between someone being wrong because they are deliberately spreading misinformation and someone being wrong because they made a mistake. That's not a facet you addressed. I extended and elaborated beyond what you said, I did not simply repeat or reiterate it.

Also, what's not to say you're doing the same? Trying to bandwagon on Charle's "contribution train"?

[YoshL]

this is a really good D0. not even joking

[YoshL]

that's a really good way to placate my thirst for interaction ben

i'm saying, your point, while it's still a good one, is still one that lacks any contribution to this game. anyone can spend any amount of posts or text writing about interpretations and mechanics and general ideas, but it's an incredibly neutral thing to do; when this is one of the first things of substance that you decide to put out, it's either your best effort as a town to catapult yourself into a conversation, or a wolf with the mindset of trying to sneak into the group by looking like they're contributing

[YoshL]

also trevor, since we're not allowed to contact other players outside the thread, it may be a good idea to nudge wilson

After seeing how red played last game, it just feels normal for red to act this way. It's pretty much expected for Red to be extremely sensitive to what anyone says, at least in my opinion. Given this, nothing seems out of the ordinary from red so I actually have a town lean on him at the moment.

I haven't been in a game with Yoshl though but his over-aggressiveness is not rubbing me the right way. For example, it's been 5 hours since dfr's last post, so accusing dfr of being a wolf for "disappearing" all of a sudden is absurd. People can't be expected to be in this thread every hour of every day.

[danceflashrevo]

Lol i was playing league for a good part of today. Dinner and family time as well. My minds been pretty frozen tbh, not really getting any good reads yet.

I do have red pretty lock clear green as well based on his expected reaction from yoshl's tunneling
