[TOWN WIN] Cool Bug Mafia

Re: [D3] Cool Bug Mafia
To answer Michelle's question, I don't have a "solve" that isn't "Not me."
I'll be back to reassess after I have fucked or fed or ate the queen or whatever my critter does. Although I think I give her presents and then let her cheat on me.

Re: [D3] Cool Bug Mafia
Too bad, I think is AI. You agreed too fast on that and you were so happy to end rhe day and not let me talk with Jay at all.
My vote is on you in this moment.

Re: [D3] Cool Bug Mafia
Tyt sir, I thought a lot at the game.
Falcon died because Brad's mate was universally town read and it would be weird to have Jay killed N1 when he TR mafia.
In between, D2, Jay still most probably didn't suspect mafia and left a legacy not including them, but the last mafia was affraid of a teamwork with Jay who could make a better Poe.
I think Wiml fits perfectly in being Brad's mate.

Re: [D3] Cool Bug Mafia
If you had explicitly said you needed time I'd have gone with it. The fact that you didn't say something outright about not wanting it when the thread had overwhelmingly been pro-hammer all day phase is something I would consider implicit confirmation you were fine with it. Sorry if a hammer wasn't the best for you on a personal level but that's not on me when you had a lot of chance to ask for us to delay and didn't.Michelle wrote: ↑Sat Aug 05, 2023 5:32 pmAt pesonal level I said I can play in the next day.Wiml wrote: ↑Sat Aug 05, 2023 5:21 pmOn a personal level: I was too busy to do much more in depth solving + had low WIM due to threadstate (top scumread inactive is bleh) + thought the game was reasonably likely to end with Quin.

And I mean if there's things you want me to answer then I'm happy to answer them. I considered your argument and disagreed that it was something strongly in Quin's favour and tbf I still don't think it's something that was strongly in his favour even after the flip.
I'm happy to answer any specifics but I don't know you well and it's hard to address everything you want me to address if I don't actually know that you want me to address it.

Re: [D3] Cool Bug Mafia
I'll have to double check that Michelle isn't secretly a much better powerwolf than I've given her credit for but the thing she's pushing me for rn is veeeeeeery likely to come from town if you take a close look at her underlying mindset.

Impatiently hammering is very towny, asking left and right why people didn't vote until then.
Roxy is in my townies for that.
I remember I said I am out of town and can play the next day. Otoh I was Iso-ing for writing a post when you pushed for hammer and Roxy voted pretty fast after and I didn't have time to say anything.
I think you wanted the hammer to not lose the easy chop who was so close.

The timing was solely because it was close to the 24 hour mark + was waiting for Kate and was discussed a lot previously.
And even if Quin wasn't to flip that day, wouldn't shifting off of Quin and onto a person less easy to miselim have been a benefit for me as a wolf? Since Quin would never not have been elimned before me in that world anyway whereas even somebody low in the PoE like Kate if town might come back today and really town it up.
You had 24 hours to explicitly ask to hold off a hammer. I'm sorry but that simply isn't my responsibility. It was VERY clear that a hammer was happening well before that point and I gave several advance warnings before I posted.

Re: [D3] Cool Bug Mafia
I suggest if you're that confident that I'm a wolf then you just treat me as dead and flipping villager and work on the rest of your PoE for that scenario.

Re: [D3] Cool Bug Mafia
☆Princess Abigail☆ - possible TMIed villager by Brad, but also my first suspicion itg. I am not sure how her town play evolved because I missed a lot of games but a sense of pride on her solve feels genuine in her posts. Not clearing because she almost won the Champs qualifier because of good tone, so she is close to my Poe
DrWilgy - I said why I think he is a villager. Probably I didn't see him wolfing more than once, but his posts reminds me of villa Wilgy. Not enough to be 100% but I will reread the Iso. He accepted fast the Quin solve, that's a minus because he should know Quin better.
Epignosis - being the interaction with Falcon, I think Epi is also spewed villager. He also should know Quin.
Kate - I will trust Roxy and Jay's sixth sense on that. Not far from Poe because not active enough but also not in the Poe for me
Michelle - town
Roxy - like I said above, a wolf of old school rarely jumps to hammer. It's maybe the most villagery thing I saw in mafia.
Wiml - failed the vibe test, pushed for hammer at the middle of the day, has a bussing attitude towards Brad - the kind of thing I expect happening if the team is formed by both of them, Brad distanced from him very active.
These are my thoughts in this moment.
Honestly we are 6 townies. It doesn't matter if I am right or wrong, if we put our brains together we can solve the game

No, I'm saying that if we continue this line of discussion then it's probably going to end up being toxic (I meant more "unpleasant" than outright toxic but you get the idea) as well as being useless.
That's in part because on my end I'm annoyed with some stuff and don't want to argue with you. I'm not calling you toxic.

I didn't realise you were calling Roxy's hammer villagery tbh.
I disagree but I think that Roxy is likely to be town for other reasons so, sure.

Re: [D3] Cool Bug Mafia
Let's assume that Abigail is a wolf for a moment.
What would her overall gameplan be on D1? What was she trying to accomplish? Abigail was very active on D1 so surely she had some sort of path to victory in mind, right?
Bus Brad? I think she did a relatively poor job selling it if if so with barely any real bussing at all and she even self-acknowleged that it looked partnered from her at SoD2 so I'm kind of doubtful.
Try to start a counterwagon to the w/w wagons? But that would really only seem to leave Michelle as the counterwagon and I'm struggling to see Abigail seeing her as a viable alternative to get flipped over herself and Brad.
Having no plan, sitting there and just allowing the thread to stagnate on w/w wagons and doing nothing and happily going along looking kind of surface-level partnered doesn't really seem like a winning strategy to me.
I guess you could argue at a stretch that she could he willing to gamble and hope things move away by themselves but that doesn't seem like a very Abigail thing to do tbh and there were definitely better options for somebody in her position to have gone for.
So I'm struggling to see an overarching strategy that makes sense for wolf-Abigail at all. So in a world where she's wolfing, what was she even trying to accomplish? (The answer can just be "she's not wolfing").

Re: [D2] Cool Bug Mafia
I think you're pretty villagery and Kate is individually a lot more likely to be a wolf than you rn. I also think that there's a reasonable chance that the wolf could be above you in my PoE and so want to check people out more thoroughly this day phase.
The latter point is why I very adamantly don't want a hammer.

Re: [D3] Cool Bug Mafia
Would require a long time sink from me to decide how much that would affect my read and it would depend on how much better you were than I thought and if I thought you had the confidence to play like this as a wolf.
I'd probably still find this push towny in most cases though because I think the underlying logic is towny.

@Kate I know you're busy but I'd still appreciate your up to date takes on Roxy / Abigail if you're free this day phase since they're people I expect you to have a lot of useful insight on if you're town (and anybody else you have a good read on).
I think Roxy explained this already, but Roxy comes from a time where the dead don't win, thus bussing is generally frowned upon by the players of this mindset.

I suppose that’ll do as a “full” POE pool.
What fun to spend Day 3 convincing these dung beetles that I'm not it.
These posts (the former in particular) gave me good vibes @MichelleEpignosis wrote: ↑Sat Aug 05, 2023 5:18 pm You are bad with Lime Coke. What do you do?
1. Create chaos in thread
2. Have Lime Coke lynch you over clever "slip up"
3. Protect Lime Coke to get through Day 1 whole
4. Try to get JJJ lynched for fun
5. Any or all of the above
6. Squander first time being bad with Lime Coke
But it wasn't as much that Epi trended up (since I always had him as reasonably towny and he was just in my PoE because others were townier with better evidence backing them up and he hasn't had that) and more that I'm now putting a less weight onto Kate's one post that I was semi-clearing her on so she's no longer on a similar level of towniness as Epi for me.

That's because I'm trying to say that there wasn't much of a change.Epignosis wrote: ↑Sat Aug 05, 2023 7:08 pmI don't see how that answered my question.Wiml wrote: ↑Sat Aug 05, 2023 6:44 pmI think you're pretty villagery and Kate is individually a lot more likely to be a wolf than you rn. I also think that there's a reasonable chance that the wolf could be above you in my PoE and so want to check people out more thoroughly this day phase.
The latter point is why I very adamantly don't want a hammer.
"I think you're pretty villagery" is not an answer to "What changed?" between 4:19pm ET on the Day 2 lynch and 5:24pm ET on the next Day.
The only major changes in my reads overnight were that my read on Kate fell down a fair amount since I slowly stopped really believing in the EoD1 post of hers being semi-clearing and that my confidence levels on having a correct solve within my PoE decreased with Quin flipping town.
Both of those increased the individual likelihood that you are town to a still-reasonable level. My overall read on you is mostly the same as it was yesterday (minus Quin existing).

On a group level: basically everyone had supported the hammer and in stagnant situations like this not hammering often has a long term impact on thread WIM. (Technically you can argue that hammering early deprives solving time and is bad but in practice people lose energy and often don't regain that energy at critical moments later so better to trim time that isn't being used and us just draining morale).
I was also an advocate of not hammering for as long as I felt that people were going to use the time effectively but since people didn't seem to be needing that time I considered ~24 hours to be long enough and stated that I was happy to hammer if others were.
You ignored the fact I implyed I need time and hammered when I still had time to post.
The rest of what you said is not helpful for town and you didn't even care to answer at my what if Quin is town idea because you brushed it off with generalities like you said above about momentum, WIM, draining morale and all.
Do you have much experience playing with her?

Re: [D3] Cool Bug Mafia
Wait I was town in my champs qual thoughMichelle wrote: ↑Sat Aug 05, 2023 6:12 pm ☆Princess Abigail☆ - possible TMIed villager by Brad, but also my first suspicion itg. I am not sure how her town play evolved because I missed a lot of games but a sense of pride on her solve feels genuine in her posts. Not clearing because she almost won the Champs qualifier because of good tone, so she is close to my Poe
DrWilgy - I said why I think he is a villager. Probably I didn't see him wolfing more than once, but his posts reminds me of villa Wilgy. Not enough to be 100% but I will reread the Iso. He accepted fast the Quin solve, that's a minus because he should know Quin better.
Epignosis - being the interaction with Falcon, I think Epi is also spewed villager. He also should know Quin.
Kate - I will trust Roxy and Jay's sixth sense on that. Not far from Poe because not active enough but also not in the Poe for me
Michelle - town
Roxy - like I said above, a wolf of old school rarely jumps to hammer. It's maybe the most villagery thing I saw in mafia.
Wiml - failed the vibe test, pushed for hammer at the middle of the day, has a bussing attitude towards Brad - the kind of thing I expect happening if the team is formed by both of them, Brad distanced from him very active.
These are my thoughts in this moment.
Honestly we are 6 townies. It doesn't matter if I am right or wrong, if we put our brains together we can solve the game

Re: [D3] Cool Bug Mafia
I said I will not vote but taking that as a shade is not corect.
It's a wolf read so I support it with my vote.
