    i'm probably wasting my time. anyway, delphine still reads very town to me. I read the games she posted and the level of analysis that comes across in the questions she asks as scum is far more superficial than when she is town/this game.

    specifically, as scum she'll ask a lot of "why x" and make points about something seeming off and inquiring about it, but she didn't seem to ask the kinds of questions she's asked here that are trying to get at certain information. the questions she's posed this game obviously have a certain motivation, even if that motivation is implicit or even a bit hidden. but they're not predominately questions to point out weird things, lightly throw scum, or get people to react defensively.

    so yeah, she's still town, too.

    well fuck, now I'm taking this game too seriously LOL. I've just hard cleared someone incorrectly too many times lately >_<

    delphine town, fonti town, newcomb town, snowvon town, i still like prophylaxis as town (fuck me idk), sheeping my townreads mostly and agree that LochNess reads fairly towny and jan is my weakest I-want-to-have-gotten-him-right ?townread.

    will try and think about people outside of that group for the rest of this phase.

    but first, i'm hungry.

    ---------- Post automerged at 19:16 ---------- Previous post was at 18:39 ----------

    basically I feel like I'm lacking things to go on. sure, i'll respond to delphine's post, jan's reads, fonti's reads... but I feel like I'm talking about the same people and don't know how to get at everybody else. if one of my townreads is actually scum though, they're outplaying the town who just aren't standing out to me at all. otherwise I'm just POE lynching, which is what newcomb has been talking about since hours into this game.. and that worries me.

    soo yeah. i felt like I was obvious town yesterday and will continue to try and project it best I can, but I try to find town more than scum and am kinda stuck where I am right now.

    That's why I said it was a weird feeling!

    Like. You're obviously feeling weird about it too. I mean it was like 1/3 of the way through D1 and I said something like, "huh this is weird, maybe we just lynch through Jan/Koalas/Rubicon/Proph/KaiDASH and win."

    And that was weird! Because no one solves the game that early.

    And yet here we are.

    So yes, it's weird and badfeels and frustrating because either this game is really easy, and I'm wasting my time, or I'm getting totally snowed by a townread and the quiet people need to step the fuck up.

    i mean if I were one of those quiet scum, what the fuck am I doing? is this insurmountable? is pride keeping me posting twice a day but not conceding? wtf

    and like I get it. I've fully admitted that you've been saying what I've been thinking the entire time... but, I haven't actually been super concerned about it until now. nothing is changing.. at all... people know where they stand in most peoples' eyes and like... nothing.

    Ok i cannot not do this, since i just got back to my PC and had all the stuff that i just read earlier still open.

    Both posts out of tinyhunt 5. This is calm and collected scum Newcomb. :p


    This post is not to take as content, this is only to mock Newcombs statement!


    Will try to get some more stuff done within the hour, at least the newcomb hannibalmafia thing, but i might have to play mafia, freakk told me that he is playing (and this might be a hint and delphine and dLGN, maybe!)

    i will say, btw, that another thing that i've leaned Jan more town for than not is his ability to reference other games and even bother to get quotes from them, even if only to make a joke like that, lol...

    I know the day phases are super long in this format and you certainly can fake that, but.. that's a lot of work for someone (especially an underactive scum?) who isn't super engaged with the game atm.

    oh another thought - if Jan is scum why is one of the biggest points he rails on about trying to get everybody to realize snowvon is town? if he's lurky mafia with a lurky team, you need to keep the few options you have left open, open.

    did he have a PR read that early and he he thought if they could end up clear anyway he may as well get ahead of it to look good? both newcomb and delphine seemed to think it was pretty obvious, though I missed it. i didn't even realize what QT was until late in the day.

    I'm such a science nerd the only thought that came into mind after this post was long QT syndrome, QT interval being a part of the cardiac waveform, lmfao..
    "The condition is named for the appearance of the electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG) on which a prolongation of the QT interval occurs. Normally, the QT interval duration is between 350 and 440 milliseconds."
    so like... >5000 had me thinking WTF lol

    i somehow ended up at that same conclusion re:snowvon, fwiw >_<

    Damn, now my posts won't automerge .. this one should just be an addendum for the newcomb behavior case i talked about earlier.

    Read through Hannibalmafia and the closest he got to a post like his sharkpost this game was :

    My result is that this behaviour is pretty much new and therefor no meta read applies. (this one is by far the closest because he tells everyone that he will sit back for a bit to get a clear head, similar but for me still very different, but judge for yourself)

    I read it as a bit much on the nose, trying to guide a narrative of his own play and i am standing by it.

    But I will reread Newcomb fully with a fresh head tomorrow, because I do believe dLGN is town, and Fonti was at least not scummy until she made the worst accusation the world has seen in the last couple of years (the two questions on me, i talked about it earlier).
    And I like him a bit more reading his stuff today (in part because he doesnt have an unexplained over the top townread on fonti. he is cautious, but optimistic, which is a read i can understand from his perspective)

    So yeah rereading Fonti next, and Newcomb afterwards or first thing tomorrow. I will let you know how it goes, maybe with some pictures to lighten to mood!


    Oh i just remembered Proph asked me why i talk so much about pairs and stuff.
    Honestly it is something stupid i picked up playing and reading a bit much on fantasystrike, i guess. (and another game i am still playing right now on mu)
    Can be useful as soon as you have flips to clear people or see them in a new (more scummy) light.
    Interesting enough the fs games were no flip so it was way more a guessing game with alingning people and hoping they were scum - and in the end people cleared fonti/von for nothing and lost, but i do believe it can be useful, esp in a flip game.

    Will give some reads when I am done with those rereads, expect a full set some time tomorrow!

    ---------- Post automerged at 02:25 ---------- Previous post was at 02:10 ----------

    Lets be honest here.

    Delphine asked me about it, and me looking for it is just the direct reaction.

    Or rather her question about it made me curious if it was a usable meta read one way or another. Everything else was me leaving the tabs open after my roommate got home and had to show me cat videos!

    give yourself a little credit, you've been doing that the entire game. i wasn't talking about just this latest time.

    naurtomafia or hanibalmafia or w/e doesn't really mean much to me, but still, you're referencing meta like I am

    kind of feeling regret about that flashwagon is all, or something. thought it could be very informative, but.. maybe not. don't know what to do now.

    Maybe Jan's town, dLGN's town, fonti's town, Snowvon's town, Delphine's town, and we literally have auto.

    Oh, really? You want to soft a PR after openly role hunting, too? That's fantastic.
