I can when this game stresses me out more than any game I've played over the past year and if it's wrong Manny can eat the swift end of my boot.

(For legal reasons this is a joke)

I'm trying to figure out what the fuck that means otherwise though.

Manny and Lan have the same type of confident read rate on each other that we do.

So I'm trusting it.

Ya get it?

[VOTE: Dunnstral] aubergine

Fuck it

What's the read on Dunn for you then?

Jack is mafia and I'm trying to figure out between you and Dunn but Lan might be making the choice for me today.

To be cute and tell Lan why you're town I'd love to see it.

[VOTE: Chelsea] aubergine

Yeeeee not gonna move probs.

Interaction is actually funny to me but I think you're maf because of it.

It would be nice if you included some reasoning.

Well if Chelsea's mafia she's basically pocketing Lan.

So it would be like her and between you and Jack.

I really doubt Jack is maf with her.

@LanMisa

Okay so here's the thing...

Chelsea is maf.

You're gonna have to see me as town here and get the train started up with Chelsea and yeet her.

If you have questions or ways for me to make you see me town, please feel free to ask.

Jack I already know you're scumreading Chelsea, my bad on not seeing it earlier, but yeah I'm kinda not appealing to you because you're already there.

Unless I'm messing up somewhere horribly.

@Dunnstral

If you are town and have questions, like Lan, to see me town, please ask away. I'm more than happy to answer as best as I can.

Acknowledged.

I will need to do some grading and organising for the next few hours but I will get back to look at your posts and come back to ask you questions as soon as I have time to do so, most likely in about five-ish hours.

If you have any concerns about my play Lan do let me know but I think you've seen how I've played this game and I'm town. It's probably just a last ditch effort because Brad as a wolf knows Jack loses F3

Although, if Jack thinks it's me and Brad so much he should have no problem sending Brad over soooo

I'll be back in a bit, just finished grading but now I need to make myself some dinner first.

I'm out running errands but I can answer once I'm back.

Well, that came out of left field.

So with everyone voting Lime here we are either completely off course or Brad's being bussed.

Yeah, I am not a fan of how the game thread feels right now, but I could also just be seeing ghosts here.

I'd really appreciate Dunn being around more, having someone to bounce thoughts off with.

I was confused by this statement... I assume it refers to Jack's comic (only got to read it just now) but since Jack posted the comic and Lime posted the hat game stuff did you refer to Lime or to Jack here?

I guess that's the world view you need to sell here but how anyone can ever believe in the two of them being partnered here is a mystery to me.

Also, just for the record, are you the bussing type or do you prefer to save your partners?

Dunnstral wrote: ↑Wed Feb 28, 2024 10:09 pm Can you give us your view of the game? There are two mafia remaining, who do you think is likely and who is unlikely?

Sad thing is least likely is Lanmisa but I think you are mafia.

And I...might be leaning towards Chelsea maf but I may regret that.

Regret it why? Coming to that conclusion?

Lime Coke wrote: ↑Wed Feb 28, 2024 11:07 pm If you ask me how confident I am in that...

I can individually flip a coin for each person and place my read on them based on that...and be more confident in that giving me the solve than me coming up with the solve in my mind based on how I'm thinking about the game.

You lost me there, can you explain this method to me in different terms? You assign everyone probabilities and then do worldbuilding off of pairings, or...?

Chelsea wrote: ↑Thu Feb 29, 2024 3:58 am People are simple when it comes to NKA so if you throw in a few screws that make it look bad for someone else and then someone else points it out? Bingo free cred.

I wouldn't go "what's the best NK for me on paper" and then follow that line down to the sand.

Funnily enough, from what I can see the NKs went so far off the rails at some point and so conservative at others that even I can't make heads or tails with them - and I am usually very good at NKAs...

Lime Coke wrote: ↑Thu Feb 29, 2024 4:01 am Like I could use the same argument you just used and it'd probably be correct because you'd probably read me a bit harsher (For lack of a better word) than I would read you.

Hey if it was up to me I'd be voting Jack but not voting with Lan is throwing atm

I kinda get that but also... please don't use me as a crutch here, my reads at town are usually subpar, and I am known for seeing reason even in difficult situations.

I accept all the blame, hands-down, if it's Dunn. But Dunn has been a paragon of virtue for me for two weeks' (real time) straight and....yeah.

Life is stressful, lots of things going around in my mind, only slowly recovering from my (most likely influenza), papers upon papers to grade...

...Welcome town fatigue, I hardly missed you.

When do you think Chelsea pocketed me though? I still have her as POE candidate, albeit the lowest one.

Considering that Jack now also voted Brad do you assume that Jack just hail mary's here to see what happens in F3?

One real concern that I had coming into today, and call me stupid for it if you must, is that Jack may try to openwolf to get their partner set up for F3. That was my biggest concern as well, and one of the reasons I wanted to go for a potential partner first - to see Jack's reaction.

Since voting Brad Jack has decided to.. do nothing for a very long time and now only recently started voting Brad himself.

...One thing that's also a concern is the timing of the yeets here, as you can see. I still think that Jack is most likely a wolf but I feel like it will be much harder in F3 to find Jack's partner than it is here and now in F5. I've been there before, in games where yeeting wolves in the wrong order messed up the game (with Matt getting credit over the PR wolves who were supposed to go deep due to circumstances and us never recovering from that). Considering my work plate I don't want to go into a weekend of a nightmarish F3, I simply don't have the time nor energy and my timezone issues will be magnified in a situation where the last wolf has several hours of uninterrupted time to talk the remaining villager into voting me, after all.

Brad, I looked at your posts from earlier. I won't lie, they gave me thought. Some of your posts, especially towards Chelsea, felt very genuine. Emotional, heartbroken, unhappy about the situation. You are definitely trying to play to your best ability here and I appreciate that a lot.

At the same time... I do look at the game as a whole. Not just today, not just this Day 6, but the whole game so far. And there are simply too many questions left for me - some weird dips, the D2 I talked about before, some stances earlier, too - like switching on Chelsea off of her not self-casing, while still seemingly trying to convince her of your own position.

If you are town, Brad, and I am ultimately responsible for misyeeting you here, then I want to apologise in advance - it's definitely not your fault but it's my inability to play better and to read you better. You tried everything that you can to convince me (and others) and I'll defend you from anyone blaming you for anything.

If you are a wolf and I am right on you then I also want to congratulate you on almost fooling me. My current decision is much less... solid than it may appear right now and it takes some effort from myself to not just townread everyone here (old habits die hard). I really enjoy playing with you (and the others) and hopefully we can be both on the same side next time.

That was basically me saying I'd feel more comfortable using randomization above me making the read myself.

Like Lan, Chelsea is just pocketing you here and using Manny's read to do so.

Which is why I'm just confident in you being town.

I did play quite shit this game, and it's fully my fault and I deserve to be misyeeted here but for the sake of the game I'm still trying and now that I got a maf finally, I'm trying to get you to see Chels as mafia and a better vote.

Depends.

He usually busses.

But yeah fyi I'm the power wolf/ save my partner type even to my own detriment. And if my partner is Chelsea no fucking way I go after her like this.

Sorry. I've just been working my new job where I have to you know, actually do work. That's why I haven't been around. Everytime I check in, I don't see anything else new. I already did my isos. If I'm wrong, I just lose.

Like honestly, does anyone think any player has done anything TODAY that has drastically changed your opinion on them? If so, great. But they haven't for me.

Bottom line, Chelsea and Brad have defended each other all game. They're the scummiest two players in the game. Now suddenly, at lylo, when literally everyone has at least one of them in their solve, they suddenly suspect each other more than anybody and suddenly, I'm supposed to think they could never be partners together?

Nah. They've been called out as partners for days. This is just distancing.

Okay think about it this way if we are paired Chelsea will be harder to kill because she's got more ability to argue as mafia and I care less as mafia so you should vote her out instead of me.
