Isn't it Mac and spirityo? It sounds like a Mac post. That should be a fun combo.

Master Radishes wrote: ↑Fri Jan 28, 2022 7:36 pm Hard claiming Gambit Demon from Shadow Corridors. It's a little modified from the original version but still keeps the spirit of it. Here's the basic rundown.

- I offer a permanent ability to someone at night. abilities are: track, roleblock, silence (can't speak during next day), disenfranchise (can't vote during next day), give a post restriction, thieving (steal the abilities of who you voted for), protecting, bus driving

- If my offer is accepting, they gain the ability, but I can choose one of two options: either all night actions cast on me get redirected to them the next night OR all votes cast on me get redirected to them the next day.

- I fulfil my win condition if the number of people who I've bargained with exceed the number of people who haven't.

I'm gonna offer the same deal that I proposed in shadow corridors. Y'all come up with consensus town and I'll offer powers to them. In exchange I get a free win, you get free power roles, everyone profits.

FAQ
- how do we know you aren't tricking us into some horrible fate???
take it on trust, host read that they aren't going to have a 3P nuke half the game in GOC, whatever. In Shadow Corridors I proposed some tactics to guard against 3P betrayal, you can try those. Yes I know I was mafia that game but my tactics were legit.

- what if the mafia soupkills you???
imagine being a coward and soupkilling the gambit demon instead of trying to go deep and get the power offered to you instead

- how do we know you're not mafia pretending to be a 3P???
my plan is pretty clearly laid out to give me a free win while also helping the town out. I fully intend to have "auto" from post 1 and will be putting in close to 0 effort to solve or influence the game from this point on. It doesn't make much strategical sense for me to do that if I'm mafia, especially since it will become too obvious that I'm lying about being 3P as the game goes on.

- how do we know you won't side with the mafia after you win like the original Gambit Demon did???
Long Con sided with mafia because he was sentimental and wanted to root for the underdog. I am not sentimental. Siding with the mafia after the town gave me my win is pointless. I have already gotten my win; putting in extra effort is not only meaningless, it actively compromises my ability to make further deals in this vein when I roll 3P in the future. It's strictly suboptimal to do that, so you can be pretty sure I won't do it.

make sure to @ me if you want to tell me who your consensus town to bargain is or have any questions/comments, since I won't be reading the thread closely.
Neeko smells a Jester asking to be lynched.

Yeah, you'd think someone who posts something like that would get chopped.

Oxymoron

The fact that Creature can only bring himself to talk about one thing so far is wolfy.

The fact that he's clearly beenfollowing along live for a reasonable amount of time given how quickly he voted nut makes it wolfier.

The fact that it's a piece of mechanical information also makes it wolfier.

The fact that it's an obviously fake redcheck also makes it wolfier.

tbh i do not think waza is faking this, based on what i know of him, like it's not something he can easily fake, but maybe i'm biased because i'm a villager and i was confused too by people's initial comments and just didn't read the OP remotely

The one about the captain looked fake because he definitely didn't quote the first mention of a captain

alexa wrote: ↑Fri Jan 28, 2022 11:10 pm i liked guillotine's opening but the one thing that did ping me was him saying that he expected better of my play/i don't make those kinds of mistakes as it's just ???? objectively false and i thought he got better with my meta. so yeah maybe that + waza's read, i would drop him from my previous towncore rn.

Ctrl Z that

Guillo's still a candidate for the most obvious town in the game and him stating an objective falsehood that requires paying special attention to one sub-facet of one player's meta in a way that could be explained by "overgeneralization" won't shift that for me.

Mafia:
Sloonei
LinearPoint
Paopon
Guillotine

that is probably 0/4 or 1/4 based on my early game accuracy but #yolo
I think only Sloonei and Paopan can be wolves here aorn
why?

ftr i am least confident on guillo here but i think linear is probably a wolf
LinearPoint is at that limbo where I think their actions are more likely to come from town but lots of players are saying they're wolf and I'm afraid of being the wrong one here
Wait I think I agree with this what's happening

I have no take on nutella or creature but do like alison, alexa, and guillo for town. There were some micro-moments for guillo that I thought were really townie when he was appearing super frustrated with what he was reacting to at the time. Wolf guillo is just as chaotic and loud as town guillo is, but wolf guillo doesn't get frustrated like town guillo does.

Guillo has an extremely towny self-absorption to his play this game
My Creature read has done a full 180, towny takes, towny idgaf, towny sense of going wherever he wants to and thinking about whatever he wants to at any moment, towny inner monologue made outer
nut obv
alexa has the nut thing corroborated by nut, has a form of an ability wolves shouldn't have, seems to really believe the Paopan stuff even if I've almost never seen that kind of read work, little paranoid because I feel she's often veering toward convoluted reads over things that should actually matter but that's tinfoil
Alison I don't really have much of a read on but is rand at worst for her

A TMIey Radish read

That's literally not how townreads work and it especially makes no sense when your reason is "this post is funny" and even more so when you obviously haven't read the rest of his posts

laugh and a half, and whether I was or wasn't I'd be saying no either way. seems like a silly question

This overly self-aware response, but could be explained by an MS mentality or something similar

Just all seems pretty wolfy

Okay I found the stuff

Porscha wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 5:34 pm >I straight up said that any reads I make early are not hard reads and I'll reiterate again that they should not be taken seriously. you didnt bother pushing hollowkat on it even though they said the same thing as me, which is that, "That's why I town read it. I'm not saying "this is a god read" I'm saying this made me laugh and I town read laughs." - I am in agreement with Hk on this and would also like my take to be read the same way.

Don't care that you had the read or how strong it was, I know villagers are gonna have weird reads and particularly for sense of humor. What I care about is how you justified it, and I think that should've been pretty obvious from what I wrote.

Porscha wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 5:34 pm >I'm not sure how this can be read as "overly self aware" when a majority of the players have no reason to claim wolf day 1, including myself. I'm not wolf, but I think it's a waste of time to just straight up ask any player that right now. I hope that explains my thoughts in a way that makes sense to you.

Reasonable.

Porscha wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 5:34 pm Yeah, not going to apologize for trying to play catch up on the ridiculous amount of day 1 posts and making it known that I'm not caught up yet, but trying to contribute. That's where I am right now, and I'm straight chilling since it's a day 1 flooded with posts and players.

Again, obviously not the point I was making. Not being caught up is fine. I'm not caught up. What makes it wolfy is when almost half of your posts are saying you're not caught up. "Hey guys I'm not caught up yet. I still have to catch up. Wow there are so many posts that I'll read later while catching up. By the way did you know I'm not caught up?"

Porscha wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 5:53 pm Understood, which I thought I had already explained, but I hope my additional explanation has helped you see where I was coming from with it.

It doesn't really. You do realize that beyond finding that Radish post towny in the first place there are 0 similarities between hk's read and your read right? I definitely won't read them the same way.

Ooooooh shit
