Idk he said he was town, I dknt think he'd lie about something like that

It felt kind of forced though no? Like he was waiting for an opportunity to say that he's town rather than just being like, yep... I'm town, get fucked.

They're closer to a hydra than a mason

Neither me nor ilario had mentioned anything about a Hydra and instead I described it as a weird Mason/Double voter combo. I find this interesting because describing it as a Hydra is exactly how the host described it in BTSC, which makes me think this is potential TMI

You're two players sharing the same slot how is that tmi lol

For one, hydras typically don't have two votes

But I really should be conserving posts especially since my restriction is twice as strict as everyone else's so this really will be my last post for the night

Yeah, I don't consider blatant attempts at gamethrowing to be "joking around". There isn't really any towny motivation in any of Axehole's posts and regardless of alignment their attitude stinks.

though for what it's worth, this matches one of my perceptions on leetic that

idk, leetic's idea of towny and scummy is sort of surface level and level 1 feeling all the time, though i personally liked the way he townread me... but idk, if he's the scum archetype who likes to townread what they think they'd correctly townread when the articulatable reason comes up... idk

it's a playstyle i tend to scumread

i could easily see this take being a real and good take and yet i'm not even sure leetic's scum

Is there anything wrong with a "level 1" feeling read? It would be a fallacy to assume that just because a read is more complicated, it means that it must be more accurate. Regardless, self-voting is something that should always be discouraged and I don't see town doing it that often unless they get immensely frustrated.

iaafr wrote: ↑Tue Nov 23, 2021 3:51 am @ilario if you are town i'm here to introduce the idea that you should be paranoid of your own slot

Part of our role is that we're confirmed town to each other (like masons). If me and ilario are of different alignments, then the game is bastard and the rules explicitly state that this isn't a bastard game.

Anyhow, I read LC, iaafr, nutella, JJJ, and cassandra as town, with Marmot and SPF being lean town, anne being null, and Nanook/Mac/Axehole being scummy. ilario largely agrees with me, though he has anne as town and JJJ as more null. Everyone else is too inactive for now.

I'll comment more on Nanook when he's here since I want to see his response. Mac's posts have all just been kind of lame and usually I see stronger pushes from him when he's playing as town. I think I've already said enough about Axehole.

nutella wrote: ↑Tue Nov 23, 2021 3:36 am i don't feel great about marmot either, the catchup takes just feel a bit forced and i think the NAA/leetic take in particular seems unnatural

Lime Coke wrote: ↑Tue Nov 23, 2021 3:05 am By the way since I'm townreading SPF, she has a good track of reading Nanook well so I'm fine with sheeping her townread there.

yeah the more i think about it the more thats classic scum spf narrative tweaking

to be clear, i don't think there's a discrepancy in your progression on nanook - i just felt that your progression on him was a little underdeveloped/unclear

it is usually very easy to understand how your reads shift from point A to point B when youre town, whereas your reasoning to put nanook in your "meh" tier seemed more opaque, which made me worried that you were just going through the motions of having a progression instead of organically coming up with one, if you get me. i would actually find it helpful if you talked about your thoughts on nanook a little bit more (and ftr some of your posts on this page are making me wonder if youre just town)

also the renaming of the "meh" tier wasnt intentional but that probably is something i would do as mafia

i don't really know what to do with this high-volume form of nanook and there are ways i can read his performativity as town indicative, maybe even more likely so. the post about planning to hit postcap and drop off pinged me as something wolf nook might want to do as a kind of defense mechanism (use up posts and take himself off the table in a way). idk. i think he's using the posts well so far and not just spamming, and i liked that he picked up on jay's vibes being off, even if i don't agree with how hard he's pushing it since jay's vibes tend to be off d1 ime. like i don't think jay is seen as a mischop in general but it's conceivable to push him d1? idk i don't actually see the permutation of wolf nook and town jay here making sense. conceivably nook could be hellbussing jay as w/w for fun and profit but i think it's more likely nook is simply town who truly feels bad vibes from jay

Is Nanook trying to look good for some cute philosopher?

staypositivefriend wrote: ↑Tue Nov 23, 2021 12:23 am the fact that illario was not immediately suspicious of the fact that he is one of my strongest townreads is probably the scummiest thing about him so far, but i refuse to expect our meta dynamic to play out in the exact same way every game. i'm going to #BreakTheCycle

Believe me, I was. But I held back because I wanted to conserve posts and because I was suspicious of your early tr on me in the last two turbos we played, so I ignored it and figured maybe your confidence in getting me right so early in those games carried over to how you’re reading me here.


Also to make sure this isn’t a total waste of a post I’m gonna post something now that I didn’t intend to plan on posting so early for thread health reasons but I may as well make this post count.

If town can’t find a elim we all agree on today we don’t shrugyeet a low poster, we yeet NAA. If there’s a vig in this setup and you’re unsure who to shoot, you shoot NAA. To explain why, I played one game with him and in that game:

-he antagonized the entire lobby
-shut down the town leaders due to his own personal reasons that weren’t game related
-forced a poe on everyone to follow that had 90% town in it
- refuses to explain a single read in his horrible poe
- scumread people for trying to question that terrible poe
- tried to speed up days by getting town speedyeeted for no reason
- after he finished doing all that he cemented his game throwing ways by self voting in lylo and letting mafia blitz him.

I thought maybe he was just having a bad time outside of the game and maybe that translated into his play that game and that was a one off for him bad game for him But I get a sinking feeling that’s not the case. Essentially what I’m saying is idc about his alignment, it’s always +ev to get rid of him if he refuses to work with the lobby before he gets a chance to hold the thread hostage like he did last time and I STRONGLY encourage any vig to shoot him because of it.

[VOTE: NotAnAxehole] aubergine

Honestly if I don't come up with a good scumread I'm probably lobbying to yeet him no matter what.

You can't kill a 2-shot cop

Number one, roles are not necessarily tied to alignments here, number two, if you are town you just painted a massive target on your back, and number three, you picked a really inorganic time to claim

Like seriously, I'm not sure why you felt the need to do that

Wooosh (it's a joke)

The self voting doesn't make me like you either

I need to exaggerate the strength of my RVS wagon.

RVS? People are actually making reads now. Either you're not paying attention or you're not taking this seriously, and either way I don't like it.

If she's outed mafia, why are you still voting the falcon guy? Your push on JJJ hasn't been any more inspiring to me

Anyway, the EM meta stuff is pretty meaningless to me as I've never played there. Not sure how to feel about the SPF wagon already getting three votes, I townread iaffr but am not entirely sure on anne.
