Earlier today I was at school to get some stuff done and for no good reason apart from "I felt like it" I went into the room where in two weeks my students will write a big exam and that had been prepared last Friday by other teachers since the exam will be in the morning straight after the school reopens.

Only to notice that two desks and two chairs were missing, which would have ended up with two students not having a place to sit during the exam. And/or frantic re-arrangement of stuff in a hurry directly before the exam was supposed to take place.


...I obviously took care of that immediately. Damn, what a lucky break for us, this could have gotten nasty otherwise.

I'm on page 7 now. Catchup has been slow because my wife put on The Marvels and I had not seen it yet.

Dunnstral seems like the best townread I have so far. I like the way they approach other players' reads, probably because I've seen things the same way. Lime Coke seemed suspicious for a few pages, but page 6 seemed to make me feel better about him. Manny and Chelsea, I didn't really like their back-and-forth about who's carrying who, I haven't picked up any alignment vibes about them yet, and their talk cluttered up the thread for me. Like "ok, I want to get through this to something more AI". Probably me not knowing them is a factor there, maybe there's rich AI in their conversation that I don't see.

Abby can get a townread because I like her frustration with people misinterpreting her reasons for townreading with her statement that the active players are town.

I've also run out of time for tonight. I'll continue tomorrow. Hopefully it will be a shorter workday and I can get some good afternoon time here.

The rest I'm either in the middle or have no opinion on.
What's scummy about them?
Well I talked about both.

Manny's posts are vibe posts and they are not explaining their stances
Macdougall commented on wolves being low activity players without responding to earlier comments that were against that, so that feels fake.
Me not noticing certain posts feels fake?
Yes, because you said that mafia were not posting, but you weren't closely reading posts. So how could you say that without having read? That's why it seems fake to me.

Scotty's catchup is fine, it's really against the grain almost to such a point that it feels deliberate in a bad way but to act on this would be way too much ego for Day 1 for me. So I'll disregard that for now and trust Lime's read on the matter.

Firstly, why?

Secondly @Manny does this qualify as pocketing?
Because I think there's one in you/Manny at the moment.

Yes, that leads to another "why" but right now I don't feel like elaborating further helps me.
Those are my suspects yet you've kept me as a scumread.

I wont use it on you though if that was the worry.
I don't care about it for myself.
It makes my blood pressure rise for unrelated reasons.
I consider it just bad.

It's not funny, it doesn't bring anything to the game and on top of that it's insulting if you look at it literally.
There's no reasoning with people who find that meme funny. Unfortunately I have come to realise that generationally they are broken. We ruined the kids Michelle.
Talk for yourself BigMac :p
MacDougall wrote: Tue Feb 13, 2024 5:04 pm Fwiw I am pre-emptively not applying usually Manny town meta looks to my mental model of Manny because I am very conscious that Manny gets overwhelmed when he lets himself get carried away in games and would be trying to hedge against that instinct in ways that might result in unusual looks.

The fact that he's actually posting with a pulse at all given the above might be strongly indicative he didn't cop an unfortunate wolf rand in this game tbh.
Manny and unfortunate wolf rand don't belong in the same sentence for me. I noticed he really enjoyed himself as a wolf.

Prolific thread so far. Went to bed at the end of page 2, now it's page 11.

I'll catch up tonight, but I had an idea while driving home from work. If anyone wants to give me some suspicions or whatever that they have, then I can do the catchup sort of like a reread... to keep in mind some ideas like "X's progression was very towny/wolfy". If anyone wants to give some perspectives. Dinner first, so there's time for folks to respond with some angles.

I see Epi is going full-image-style, though if the images are just going to have text, then I don't see the point. I don't want to see billboards of post-text, I want nuance that a well-chosen image can illuminate, beyond, perhaps, what mere text can convey. :grin:

If we delve into game meta a lot then courier could be anything from good to evil or just chaos agent.

I’ll go out on a limb though and say both them and house are survivor style roles and the other needs to die
I haven't played the game, I just looked it up and saw that he's the protagonist/Player Character. Is it one of those games where you can choose "the evil route"?

I think it *more* likely, however;l, that he’s TMIing me
Maybe. Or maybe you're the Wolf, and saying that is an attempt to give good mindset vibes to the thread.
A little early to be playing this hard isn’t it
Is that what you consider playing hard? :ponder: I thought it was just a single thought that occurred when reading Scotty's "he's TMI'ing me Town" thing.
Yes essentially you’ve got 3 options

1. Good
2. Evil
3. Libertarian:

it’s common to kill House as the courier hence my idea that they have to kill each other.
That's a thing to consider, thanks for sharing
sig wrote: Tue Feb 13, 2024 7:29 pm So general thoughts:

Epi is NAI.

Scotty came in surprisingly strong, which was a good look, but his thoughts on Epi are weird. I’ll say third party for now and move on.

Mac, Jack, and Chelsea all have light town reads

Abi has a light mafia read

That is all
What your light town reads did to deserve it?
sig wrote: Tue Feb 13, 2024 7:30 pm Ph Michelle is a solid town read also and light town reads of falcon and creature

Really? I consider denying townreads to be Basic Wolf 101.
I like this post. Feeling good about LC.

I think you’re probably town by consensus. My day 1 reads are generally shitty and I’ll cede to a majority.

Too bad. I enjoy the game regardless.

This doesn't make me unvote because with or without enjoying it, you can fake it and that's what matters in the end for village.

You got dedication, I give you that.

From my experience in other games gimmick posters often (not always, but more than 50% of the time) turned out to be wolves hiding behind the gimmick so... I'll keep my eyes on you.

Trying out the system and its features here for a bit, just ignore me for a bit.

What is a sarcasm filter?

Also, what is dead text?
I don’t really want to be using post cap posts to explain, but it’s fine.

There’s a bevy of options up there that really are situational to the game. In the before times, us old farts didn’t use to post off topic without using the OT button. Sarcastic orange to imply sarcasm, pedantic to imply pedantic-ism (w/e the noun of that is). Nowadays, we just…post. Be free.

Dead players used to be able to post off topic in dead red. That’s still a host preference. We don’t customarily do that much anymore

Oh, that YouTubeHD code button doesn’t work. YouTube videos can just be posted and they’ll appear as normal
Ah, yeah, thanks for your explanation! But I agree, save your posts, I will just figure out stuff on the fly eventually.

Back to the regular game, is there some player or interaction that you felt needs to be looked into a bit further? I saw you having a negative opinion of Michelle so far which I don't have so maybe this is something you want to get back to me about at some point?
Michelle is coming around with her posts. It was late for her in the starting parts of this phase since she lives on the moon and her time zone is 84 hours ahead. Plus, the absolute townreading maelstrom of everyone else just tells me I’m probably just wrong with my initial impression.

Michelle is probably more of a towncore *because* of how wrong I am in comparison to others tbh
That's fair. I know that Michelle can be quite a competent wolf but I don't see it so far.

I also just in general like HOW you come around with your reads and make adjustments. Like, not the fact that you do it, but the how and the why. I'm very solid on you being town now.
Buttering me up, eh?

Just so you know, I’m generally more suspicious of those that townread me more than scum read me. I’ll let you pocket me for now. But I might want to put you in the 3p more firmly than town atm lol
I know this looks like it is addressed to you more directly but it's rather me trying to explain to others why I think that you are town and to have others follow my read. In my opinion the exchange best exemplified what I townread about your play.

(Maybe it feels silly to you to drop a townread on someone who's not in immediate contention but from experience these kinds of reads come more in handy in the long run, especially if games get tough and the former towncore starts to crumble away.)

Okay, I did some catch-up with the night posts, here are my thoughts:

- Mac is... giving me mixed vibes. Similar to Scotty and Chelsea he came in with a strong push/approach, but... it feels a bit different. More aggressive and destructive instead of productive? I'm not sure if this is just a tonal thing since he did come around changing stances on Manny as far as I can tell AND he also looked in more than one way (like at Scotty and me, not just at Manny), but... I dunno, I will have to let it simmer for a bit longer.

- I did read Mac's post on this type of play apparently being Epi's regular M.O. and I will take your word for it, especially since Scotty also backed it up. I do hope to see more explanation for reads on the billboards as well and... well, I said what I had to say about gimmicks.

- Not sure if Seanzie had given a reason as for why they can't play more but them not coming back after what I consider a very meh opening is a bad look in my eyes.

[VOTE: Seanzie ] aubergine

- Sig had a weird entrance and I need to reread it a bit later with more clarity in mind. Long Con jumping immediately on these posts for readbuilding instead of all the other pages with more meaningful interactions has been noted. Long Con, would you say that you prefer real-time interactions over backreading, or what else made you focus on these things especially?

- I see Dunnstral posting but the posts still don't stick in my mind and I wonder if that's a me thing. Definitely on the reread pile.

- Abigail quoting my earlier impression post of hers but not my townread(s) on her is making me sad.

Since Chelsea asked: I don't know how to read either Dunn or Jack, only played with Jack in mashes from what I remember and I left figuring out my fellow SMT enjoyer to the crowd, usually.

I mean, it's early morning in Europe, the Americans are asleep and we have quite a few low-posters, including a non-poster.

Any thoughts on the game that differ a lot from your earlier reads list? Something you want to discuss? Or do you have something to help me figure out the players I am unsure of as of now?

Macdougall made a post saying that it looks like the mafia had not posted yet.

I pointed out that there was already discussion of this topic that they are not referencing.

They responded implying they had missed a few posts.

My issue is that if they haven't read the thread that closely, how can they tell that mafia haven't been posting yet? How can they have townreads on everyone who has posted? So I think their initial post reads as fake.

You are misreading it.

In some capacity, Chelsea brought that point up by saying one of the two were mafia. Not sure if she explicitly said that they weren't mafia together, but that is what I got from that.

I apologize for point blank not showing up after I got home but I tired myself out coaching my practice and I didn't have the energy to read through everything and get a solve going.

I will try to get things down but don't expect much for the rest of the day phase I flat out am sorry about that.

A silent thread benefits only wolfs
Or the ones of us who are busy with life as well and only got time to glance a look on occasion!

While I do understand the statement....what do you think the issue is, here? Are the wolves the low-/no-posting players? Are wolves in the middle and just content with the status quo? Are the wolves top-posters who run out of stuff to say due to the higher number of barely-shows?

I personally don't think that this game is in danger yet due to the heavy emphasis on mechanics, as far as I can tell; I've also been in games where too many posts ended up drowning out the really important discussions and nobody backread the clusterfuck of pages which ALSO heavily helped wolves. I'd personally love to see a few more interactions from the low-posters but... many other players feel rather readable already. But maybe that's just me.

Manny feels deflated in a wolfy way, sheeping consensus reads and sharing self meta.
Also he made some twtbaw posts but he is self conscious about his posting style, so that looks to be on purpose.

I hope you can catch up and share reads before Eod

I personally don't think that this game is in danger yet due to the heavy emphasis on mechanics, as far as I can tell; I've also been in games where too many posts ended up drowning out the really important discussions and nobody backread the clusterfuck of pages which ALSO heavily helped wolves. I'd personally love to see a few more interactions from the low-posters but... many other players feel rather readable already. But maybe that's just me.
This forum has a massive activity problem that leads to easy wolf wins you can not convince me otherwise and it is one of the reasons I'm convinced town win rates on the syndicate are an atrocity lately

You are Zenon, Town 1-shot Desperado. You’re known for posting a lot (namely in anime gif form), playing a lot, and, most importantly, making snap decisions – particularly in the endgame. In a recent game, Wild West FM, you were taken to final 3 and immediately voted the last wolf, resulting in a LyLo that was strictly speaking over in four minutes and two posts. This game, we’re giving you the chance to accomplish a similar feat.

High-Risk High-Reward (Day 2+, 1-shot, Immediate): Spend 6 Snapvote Charges, post Fuck it we ball glgl in bold red text, and ping a player. (When you use this ability, you should also inform the hosts privately.) If they are Town, you will strongman die. Otherwise, you will strongman kill that player. This action resolves instantly.
