That's a boring cold take.

Baudi could easily be someone offsite who is quite good and are getting townread because they are new and not obvwolf, so yeah, I'm kind of okay with that.

I don't know them so I can't comment on if that is likely or not.

Porscha feels fine.

Hot take: Alison/Roxy is w/w.

Do I believe it? I don't know. But it is a hot take.

Alison wrote: ↑Thu Jan 05, 2023 3:35 pm Next question: should we let lucy determine the elim as the IC

I think we should settle it now before she gives reads so mafia can't support/oppose the idea based on her reads
I dunno. I feel like we should let wagons happen naturally for wagonomics.
Perhaps we should give lucy the power to force the exe choice if she wants, but leave it uncertain as to whether or not she'll do so or let us choose naturally. That way wagoning decisions we make still matter and we preserve the wagonomics while reserving the ability for our IC to step in and avert a scum directed EOD.

This does not work in practice.

I'm just going to play like normal.

I think they sound fake and agenday, incomplete analysis aside.

I don't have a read on them.

This feels gross.

Most of Alison's posts feel gross.
what feels gross about it?
It doesn't feel like hunting. It feels like trying to make a player look bad to other players.

Town do try to make players look bad to other players but it's when they are convinced that player is scum. Like, there have been a lot of times that (regardless of if I'm correct or not) I've felt like I've had a wolf and people won't follow my vote and I'm just screaming into the void. That's a thing townies do.

But just shade on a player like that D1 for not doing enough? Feels like a thing wolves do.
okay

so then what do you think about alison's original reason for pushing on kate? do you think it looks like alison is talking about kate in a bad faith way?

She agrees with Rondo meta, immediately undermines her own view, then promises a future reread (a reread? Thread was literally 2 pages) that has to happen before she gives any deeper thoughts. It's a waffly nothingburger of a post.
because i can understand why the thought of: "this player isn't doing enough" could be wolfy to say about someone this early into the game, but i also feel like you're singling out that specific post from alison without seeming to factor her original reason for pushing kate in the first place into your analysis. it feels like incomplete analysis
Yeah, that just kinda feels like a bunch of nitpicking. Calling promises of future content wolfy is like....you wait for the content to come or not come. And agreeing with meta and undermining yourself aren't scum indicative in the first place. Does feel bad faith.

Actually given two functions f=f(n) and g=g(n), f>>g means that the limit as n goes to infinity of f/g goes to infinity. Unless you're a number theorist... then f>>g just means g=O(f), which in my opinion is just bad.

Interestingly f>>g does not imply f>g in either case.

No why does it matter? It doesn't in mafia. Bad posts are, well, bad. It's why we ask questions and expect answers. It is the towns only weapon.

Well, as you've figured out, it clearly has been broken.
Just makes sense to me.

Your entrance analysis looked like a way to break rvs, but only JUST that. A way to look like you are breaking rvs and contributing without actually doing so.
