Inception [END]

Welcome to The Great Team Building Exercise of Inception Mafia

So firstly I'm not gonna force anyone to do this but it sounds like a fun idea so I'm gonna do it and if you like the idea then do it as well.

So, I just put the playerlist through random.org. I have created five random groups of six players. Your goal is to communicate only with the players inside of your group for ONE hour. Given where we're at with timezones I think coordinating it across all the players is probably impossible so make that hour whichever hour that you want. Hell if you want to just spend the rest of the day focused on these five players that's fine. Hell even if you just want to give them a cursory look to have some players to hone in on making reads on you can do that too. Basically it's just going to force people to look directly at a smaller set of players. This should help you read these people, perhaps find some townies to work with, hell maybe you'll make some friends even I don't fucking know.

Here are the lists;

Group 1 -
@Benson
@TonyStarkPrime
@Dragomir
@Quin
@Rej
@Lady LambdaDelta

Group 2 -

@MacDougall
@iaafr
@Dom
@Creature
@Long Con
@Trustworthy Liberal

Group 3 -

@112
@NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME
@nutella
@Epignosis
@DFaraday
@novaselinenever

Group 4 -

@Jackofhearts2005
@Spiny Creature
@sprityo
@Pawn Lelouch
@vanity.
@Hyena

Group 5 -

@Elephant
@juliets
@Michelle
@Evenstar
@Master Radishes
@Texas Cloverleaf

Knock yourselves out.

is this an active idea?

[112]

i see again the non read 'Elephant is elephant' care to explain TSP?

I am helping explain to Dom that Elephant is an elephant so that he becomes aware that elephant is an elephant because that’s information that is hard to gather.

Good to know I almost thought that Elephant is a fairy.
Really?? Except the wifom, do you have any slight idea about his alignament?

strange interaction imo

[Benson]

Drago has seemingly disappeared while several people are calling for his head. Never a good look.

I need him to post so I can re-evaluate that read. I'm still kinda holding on to his start that I liked.

[Michelle]

So I just woke up and I have to ask before I make any proper posts. In what world am I considered part of LLD's clique when I explicitly turned down the invitation back in champs?

What time is it at you?

I asked his oppinion not yours but since you felt the need to come inside, what do you think about Elephant, TSP and me?

[Evenstar]

mac is townreading me for no reason
dom is scumreading me for no reason

always fun to join new communities

I'm also super amused that the wagon on me is composed of:
- Texas, who has a bee in her bonnet because apparently I ought to be expecting her to throw her vote aroubd more
- four people who have never played with me before

also I have no clue what's up with this gimmick thing but on general principle I'm not gonna participate. Trying to read the entire game from six people is a bad plan.

i need to reread drago

not gonna tonight though

it is 11 pee em and i should sleep

Epignosis is speaking good words and people should listen to him

[mention]Pawn Lelouch[/mention] put your head together with Epi, between the two of you you can probably solve this

[Benson]

[mention]Epignosis[/mention] , why is Tony Stark lynch fodder? Is that just based on this gam? Or is he a common mislynch?

I do agree that that type of style is an easy push for the wolves if he's town. But I just can't ignore my strongest intuition atm. He's too pedestrian and blendy to not be a wagon today.

Sorry, that should read: why is he MISlynch fodder

I don't feel particularly good about any of you- and feel probably worst about Tony right now.

But I think the best vote is [VOTE: Epignosis] aubergine

it feels like you really had to force this post tbh

Maybe. I had Drago on my mind (I'm trying to resolve that read) and I just started writing.

[Benson]

112, do you understand why I'm wolf reading you?

I read a couple of his posts this morning (actually 10:30pm here but i just woke up), and they seemed insincere. He was conscious of being lazy with one post but downplayed the laziness in a way that made me feel he was too conscious of how he's coming across.

[112]

112, do you understand why I'm wolf reading you?

I understand everything. I am the most intelligent agency in the universe.

You're dying soon

[NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME]

Hi guys my name is clem and I’m an insomniac here for the next 2-20 minutes, ama

[NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME]

I don’t think 112 should die today solely because I think they’re fun to play with, and I am aware that’s a shitty reason

[112]

Hi guys my name is clem and I’m an insomniac here for the next 2-20 minutes, ama

could you close your eyes for 60 seconds and try to think of one person who's scum but slipping under the radar? just go all trancey in your headspace and try to work it out. it'll be fun.

[112]

aww, appreciate that

[Pawn Lelouch]

So I just woke up and I have to ask before I make any proper posts. In what world am I considered part of LLD's clique when I explicitly turned down the invitation back in champs?

What time is it at you?

Little past midnight. Took an accidental impromptu nap.

If I close my eyes how will I look at the playerlist tho

Idk I haven’t read much of this game at all tbh, maybe 150-200 posts total. I guess I’d say maybe drogo, but they might just rub me the wrong way

[112]

I've been independently reading some of Tex's posts as scum but am willing to overlook it because I thought their entrance was quite respectable.

[NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME]

Drago, sorry. Poll says they have one vote but idk if there’s thread pressure on them outside that or not?

[NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME]

I read their first handful of posts and nothing since but they seemed fine in that handful

Think it’s more about who Lexi put in it tbh

[112]

I think Eva's town and would feel better if those on her vote scattered to other wagons tbh.

[Pawn Lelouch]

Drago, sorry. Poll says they have one vote but idk if there’s thread pressure on them outside that or not?

2 now, forgot to vote in the poll after swapping my vote to him. It's been corrected.

[NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME]

Oh cool, maybe he isn’t actually under the radar then lol

[Benson]

I've been independently reading some of Tex's posts as scum but am willing to overlook it because I thought their entrance was quite respectable.

Im surprised that entrance got Tex town reads. I don't buy that they can't easily make those posts as wolf. Their play afterwards, or lack thereof, should keep them in the lynch pool imo.

[NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME]

Ok guys and gals and thems, it’s been real but now I gotta force myself to pass out. I’ll be back tomorrow depending on when the deadline is

[Michelle]

is town Eve so piseed looking at his own wagon? I had mixed vibes before i voted and the post who made me vote was wolfy. I will go to catch up and see her further posts.

The refuse to take the group experiment looks good.

Eve should know spec chat looked at her a lot and maybe even without any game played together i may have an idea about her playstyle.

[Master Radishes]

Radishes I’m kinda surprised you’re playing so much today.

Different forum different belief in D1’s?

The big irony is that he told me pre-game that he would intentionally barely post on D1. Well so much for that.

Am I playing? Or am I just posting?

[nutella]

Benson
Master Radishes
Jack
Nanook

Names that don't have red pings attached to them in my spreadsheet so far.

I was going back over my champs games a few days ago and realised that the GTH exercise actually spewed the entire wolf team in the wc except the way it spewed them was that all of them had almost no scum reads GTH. I would bet this list is wolfy as balls.

Huh guess you missed my vote for Radish that arose from a conversation about Jack lol. I was saying that Jack was in his wolf range and could have been trying to pocket me (with the debunking of Eva's weird thing) and then radish did an ultra suspicious thing in response to my disagreement with his jack read.

Don't forget to share your impression about Drago though when you cone back.

I do have a reason actually. You have a tell.

[mention]MacDougall[/mention] this post is unrelated to the jack discussion but was a turning point that opened my eyes to scummy!radish:

vanity lock town

You're late to the game on this one.

anyway this was around the same time as my interaction with him about jack, read through that for context, then he comes out with this:

Let's all vote jack then, since I'm clearly wrong about it.

which is the scummiest post in the game yet. cue my vote.

thoughts?

But more srs answer:

Nook - different forum, different size/style of game, different players, etc - if I don't post I'll fall way behind and never catch up; this way I feel like I at least have some handle on what's happening

Benson - I do consider this barely posting, Benson Also I've just had some good fortune in having it start on a weekend where I had some time to keep up.

[nutella]

I would be okay with a Drago or Rej lynch or whatever but I am feeling radish as the galaxy brain option. However to echo something iaafr said about someone else, if he ends up being town it would be a mislynch I'd regret. So I want some input.

[MacDougall]

I found both posts very townie when I read them. Why are they scummy? The Jack post gave me a massive town ping.
