Well I liked this game.

Idk if it made me do better reads but it forced me to make a firm decision on several players. Felt the need to elaborate on Bob (poe/gut/no obvious pairing) and Eloh (feels real in spite of everything) in the moment but choose not to.

Dunya's effort is appreciated but she comes across as trying to find weakpoints to mislynch (here we go again). That's partially a heartread as I tend to recognize good Dunya quickly in my limited experience with her.

Wilgy, ignoring me (who is town), isn't doing much hunting, which comes across bad when forced to quick read.

Interested in general gth game theory. Don't care if y'all don't like it. Jimmy?

Kyle heartread good. Epi is ASOUE Epi I hope. Quin, Sloon, Jimmy, LC, Nutella nothing has changed (unimportant indy suspicions included).

Nothing really changed with Speed, either. Maybe feels extra lurky.

Hilarious at all the bad reads on Glornamehere. I wonder how much of that is baddies aren't helpful and how much is actually "mostly absent bad team" theory. Has anyone ever played a game with an entirely inactive baddy group? Sounds terrible.

I want to address mesk's play. Who was it that said they had played with her as civ before and she was really fierce? She seems so genuine to me, but that info doesn't allign with her behavior. I think she needs to be up for discussion today.

Linki...by the way... I can never address linki because on my phone, the left side of linki gets cut off for some reason. Just thought I'd share.
I don't think her absence for 6 days is indicative of her alignment. That's what I would like to sway people away from.
Yes, as town, a wrongly accused town, she gets very vocal and aggressively defensive. She hasn't been on the frying pan though, indeed, she hasn't even been on the forum for 6 days so....we can't say she's scum because she's not here.
This is oddly defensive, imo.

Dunya replaced in awesomely with great effort. What if she is too good to be true? What if there have been no night kills because of a quiet mafia and two of them are mesk and now dunya? Just really spitting this out real quick before I go watch tv with the family. I'm not fully caught up so tell me if I'm insane.
You're saying mafia was a blank space? Maybe. But I'd like some names.

Felt like I had a fucking lock on you in Phenom. Same for DDL in my first game with him.

Now you gut feel like Bob, who I can't read for shit and I feel like I don't know DDL at all.

Still think you're both bad but idk what happened to either of ya'lls metas.

I'd say Phenon was a typical baddie game for me, even though I was 3P. Night vale too. Pirates I was a little distracted.

But hey, if you read me bad in Phenon, you're good on that. :beer:

I fell asleep after your first handful of posts (you must have been boring :p)and just woke up to the GTH reads. So my read was about 90% sprit and 10% dunya, without having read most of your contributions.
Fair enough. I don't know you well, but I feel your answer here is genuine.

I kind of did my own GTH as I was reading through the thread. Of the low posters, I think Dom and wilgy may be good although there was one post of wilgy's that seemed very scum, but then he better explained himself and that sounded pretty genuine. But then again maybe it was a slip and he noticed how scum he sounded and then just tried to make up for it well. I think INH and mesk could be bad. Oh and sig is quiet too but I'm unsure about him. I could be missing some. Of the outspoken players, i think jjj, cbob, and dunya are good. I think thats all. The others are all in between participants imo, not over chatty and not too quiet. Maybe I'll try doing a list of my gth tomorrow qhere I can include everyone. I'm very sleepy.

[mention]dunya[/mention] I really do apologize. You're my friend and I don't want there to be any negativity between us. I was shocked that you were seemingly using our discussion of the sc2 games against me. I can see now how from the context from our talks that you might think that I didn't enjoy the second game, and it is true that I was much more willing to turn lemons into lemonade as a townie.

I think you'll find , despite the lack of an onslaught of lemons in this game, that my behavior and interest level in this game are closer to the level I displayed in the game where I was good than the game where I was wolves

LC says "I think you are bad."
Epi says "Bah. I am good and you are bad trying to get an easy lynch!"

The underlined bit reads false because Epi is not easy to lynch. Epi knows this so that statement comes across as dishonest. Lynch all liars. Therefore, this makes Epi look scummy.

Dancing skill alone doesn't determine alignment. It determines how genuine the underlined/bolded statement from Epi is. Genuineness is generally a town tell and the opposite generally a scumtell.



Alternative example:
Epi says "I am the cop."
LC says "There is no cop based on the setup on the front page."
Jack says "Epi is probably scum."
Wilgy says "What? How is claiming cop scummy? Do you think cops are scum?"

You elaborated more on your scumread of me since the last time I evaluated you. Said new things about Sloonei, too. Dunya, Speed, Wilgy look worse in my eyes.

Fun fact: I've drawn the same number of scum role cards in 2 games on MU as I have in ~3 years on the Syndicate. :shrug:

I owe Wilgy a proper ISO. On a surface level glance, I like the tone of his posts. He fell behind at the beginning of the game, but he's not shied away from pumping the thread full of his thoughts as he catches back up. Shows both that he's engaged in catching up, and interested in promoting his own thoughts as he does so. I'd have to actually dig into what those thoughts are before I can say anything about him with much confidence.

I still go back to a single DDL post from Day 2 when he responded emotionally to the mounting suspicion against him. I don't think it was the sort of thing that's easy to fake, and I don't think DDL is a player who would fake an emotional outburst like that for town credibility. I also thought the progression which lead to his vote on you Day 2 looked natural and thoughtful.

I've never seen Mesk before this game. She's had trouble keeping up in the new environment. There is not much I can do with the content she has provided us at this time, so I've defaulted to having no reason to read her as town.

In my limited but valuable experience with speedchuck, he strikes me as a scarily good scum player. He's approaching this game with a sort of nonchalant and off-the-cuff attitude that still strikes me as being directed and active toward solving the game. I feel like scum speedchuck would be more inclined to fool us all by playing a textbook town game, and besides that I think I can recognize some genuine thought processes behind his posts. He's not the strongest town read, but I'd need to be thoroughly convinced in order to vote for him today.

I think that's the easier way to read a player when they approach the game more casually than is normal for them. I think this is the same reason nutella was in hot water on Day 1. But I tend to feel like this assumption that "nonchalant = not trying = scum" is wrong. in my experience scum players are generally more focused and rigid. And regardless of this, my approach is predominantly about trying to trace the line of thought that motivates a player's content. When I read speedchuck's posts, I do get the sense that there's a line of thought which has been developing since Day 1. Or at least I did when I ISO'd him a year ago at the beginning of Night 2.

I think the biggest thing I learned from today's GTH exercise was that glorfindel is playing the game, second biggest thing is that I don't trust LC as much as I did since he stopped going after Epignos

Okay so a lot of people (among participants) think dunya, Mesk, speedchuck are bad.

I don't fully understand the 5 bads on Jack? Wasn't jack confirmed good?

Some thoughts from the GTH reads:

~ The recurring meme with these things has been that the player to give the most civilian reads has tended to be mafia-aligned at a more-than-random rate. In this instance the culprits are Colonel Bob by count and Jack by percentage. Before I proceed with this notion though, I want to look back at the numerous other GTH charts I have saved on this laptop. This trend was one I noticed in the earlier stages of running this exercise, and I am not certain whether it has held overall. It's something that should be easy to check.

~ The initial inspiration (hi Quin) which made me think to do these today was the incursion of dunya into the game thread. She replaced a participant in the lower tier of content quantity and very quickly changed that reality for her player slot. I wanted to see how the people viewing the thread live as that developed would treat their sprityo/dunya reads in light of her content infusion. The results indicate that the general negative press on sprityo has proceeded onto dunya pretty seamlessly. I spoke of my reception of her entry to the game -- I'd like to hear how the GTH participants and otherwise feel about her in the immediate present in greater detail.

~ I'm surprised by the even split on Colonel Bob. Through the long night phase he seemed to attract and hold negative press without receiving much support if any. This was one of the more conflicted reads for me, and I may not be alone in that given the lack of consensus.

~ Daisy wins the Paranoia Award. I have seen on a couple occasions seen mafia-aligned players spam the GTHs with baddie reads, perhaps to avoid the dubious distinction in the first tilde here, or just to appear to be struggling with townie terror. I don't get this impression from Spacedaisy. The reads don't appear forced in that there is a clear low-poster trend visible in her B's. The mafia read on Quin was against the grain though, and it'd be groovy if you'd explore that aloud more Daisy.

~ What's your beef, dunya? :meany:

~ The primary value of these reads will come later in the form of interactive analyses and the like. For the moment, they serve us best as clear, consolidated stances and a means of exploring how our guts may surprise us and why.

My read on dunya was definitely painted darker because of the disagreement we had run into pretty much at the exact time as the GTH reads were happening, I didn't actually suspect sprityo before he replaced out, though I know many did.

If I did a gth read for her now I'd probably still say bad but I'd be much more hesitant about it. I want to see what she brings to the table.
