I almost feel like i'm talking to 65% of facebook users who spew points and don't defend or explain them using ethos or logos.

Koshi I want to feel like a newb again.

And you all misjudge Calix her play. She saw something to whine about and did it, to fake activity and not to solve this game. That she was capable to notice bad posts to pressure is good for her.

Doesnt matter game is still young. You'll all figure it out.

Well lets move on from this then (since this is a stalemate)

Outside of Calix world, how do you feel about the rest of the pot.

Oh shit,

I forgot classes were cancelled today >_> I been here since 8:30 am.

At least I worked on my crap while I was waiting.

well yeah because calix was making good points and it seemed like they went over everyone's heads

I was just pointing out how it didnt make sense in my mind since you both said similar things and koshi read you as town and such.


Actually reading Tumblewood's filter: there is NO (absolutely no!) contribution to the game. Just banter. Besides that easily to be made up post.

##vote Tumblewood do something

To be devils advocate here,
Neither has Darth or Rels.

I admit, he is here (or hereish) and should be posting more stuff that is interesting. But also, Its not even halfway through the first day cycle. Hence why I haven't gimped him for it.

Do you think it's worth pushing, Calix?


No, I don't.

But that's not the point.

You clearly think it is.

Why does it matter what I think then?

Can you not pretend I "clearly" think it is and consider the sentence that comes right after "I think it's worth a push"?

Can you also think about why I put "I think" in front of "It's worth a push"? Normally, that means that a person wants to imply a certain level of uncertainty about something. We're both town, right? So we want to help each other out by judging each other's thoughts. So you can either pick up what I say and drop your own opinion, or you can go after me because I do not place a vote on the very first maybe pushable thing that I find when the game is three pages and some hours in.



Yes, and if you're uncertain on something then you generally question/ pressure that person so they clarify the issue. I am wondering why you wouldn't want to push Koshi when your posts were going in that direction and I'm still not sure what the hesitation is for.

I am not 'going after you' either, actually. I generally find you scummy so I am trying not to jump down your throat here, lol.

And how am I supposed to question Koshi on his, like, three posts? I've pointed out what I didn't like, and depending on his reaction to that, I'll continue to go after him or not.

Why are you scumreading me for going after something I find scummy?


Pretty simple. You just ask basic shit like "why did you decide to announce this playstyle after you got your role?" (as an example) and go from there.

Where did I say I was scum-reading you? I said "I generally find you scummy" which is not the same thing. And the entire conversation we're having is that you AREN'T going after something you find scummy O_o

You're not making much sense.


I find this sentence comical. Can anyone who isn't Calix explain wtf the difference is between these two sentences, because to me it just looks like useless hedging that sounds scum motivated. The splitting of semantic hairs is not something I really associate with town!calix.

I think btdt is more town from the argument because he seemed more logical/focused/level headed.

Koshi's intro reminds me a bit of his standoffish play style he used last game as scum, and I like btdt's questioning of him so far

My time is a bit limited but I'm catching up ASAP


I read it as

Generally I find you scummy"
In games I play with you, I find your playstyle to be scummy or I have a history of calling you scum.

I dunno how true that is for calix/BTDT.

Agree with BTDT point.

Koshi is a bit hit or miss rn. I honestly dont like him, and have a hard time following his logic. His points (to me) make no logical sense or lack the details to really fully understand. Plus the confirm tumble thing is still odd in my eyes. Plus the behavior changes.

Calix -- hmm

the whole Calix Koshi Me thing and then with tumbleweed reiterating on it and shape commenting on it - it's of course easy to form a town circle of five but I don't dare to do that. oh and still, can someone explain what this "sucking up to rayn" thing means

Touchee

Koshi said that Calix was sucking up to ryan due to what she said to ryan about SL.

The thing is I still don't see how probing rayn is "sucking up"

I can understand the point if Koshi was talking about it from the "faking activity" point he brought up later, but the progression from "she was sucking up" to "she was faking activity" doesn't really make sense to me

I just don't understand it as a whole.

Tbh, its something every hour or so from him so at this rate.

Ooohhh if Calix meant generally as in she finds btdt scummy in many games then I feel like an idiot. I thought she was just talking about this game "generally"

That's just what I take it as. I mean, I doubt she would use "generally" in that term you had for like a hour of gameplay.

##vote Tumblewood do something

how bout you do something first and I do something about that something
(I think you are bad town who thinks contributions mean anything. thankfully you are transparent. I think.)

The main difference between us two is that I actually do something: I interact with people (i.e. making myself readable), I drop reads, I push here and pressure there, and I try to stay reasonable.

You do nothing.

nah I'm pretty content with having three reads that I think are right with as little as has happened so far
and what ever happened to that push on koshi

A good chuck has actually happen. Calix vs. BTDT page, Koshi points, Ryan vs. SL, etc.

I wouldnt mind koshi vote rn tbh. When i read up, ryan has a town read with him, so I debate with him shortly.
So I stand corrected in that Shape did post some "reads" but I find this post to be so confusing for such a relatively simple read explanation. I also think it's odd that Shape says btdt is more towny than Calix but has spent a considerable amount of thread capital defending Calix imo. It just feels off. The time I lost to scum!Shapelog was when he did posts like this that were super convoluted and I lost motivation to read them after 3 sentences. That's kinda how I feel so far with his play.

A few town reads, meh scum reads (including a couple "this is weird, this is off" type sentences @ thanks ritoky for the guidance) and posts like this that are kind of semi-serious but maybe not really that seem like ez hedging opportunities later on to say "well that was just a joke" or "that was actually serious!"

I'm normally hedging early on as either alignment and then either lose people to scum read as mafia, or I get more and refined as town on people I sus. I've done that since the beginning days and still do lol.

Usually also, my alignment gets pretty clear when the games go on IMO. If you know what to look for in my play. I'm pretty sure you seen both shapes.

Talked more bout calix because others agreed with BTDT.

And fyi,
That was a joke with the cocky thing

Bullshit. If you dont understand what someone says it doesnt mean this.

BTDT is town. Koshi probably too. Shapelog might be mafia but i am not sure.


Why is Koshi probably town?

Because he said smart thingd about Calix. I am not sure if it makes her mafia though. Doesnt change the fact its smart and very Koshi'esque.

You can be town too. This game is gonna be pretty easy.

Go on,

Because I (and others) dont see it.

I thought that was a lot more games together.

3, 2 town and one mafia.

Eh kinda what I was and wasnt looking for so I shall let it pass. I was going to see if he know knows my town style (which on paper he should) but those two games (mini and millionare) either one of us left the game pretty early.

So he prob doesnt really remember it. So my point in my head doesn't stand.

anyways,

Indeed she doesn't. You can infer she has a issue with Koshi, but that is it in reads. BTDT read went away after the misunderstanding post and then the koshi stuff started.

Not enough to flip my view on her though, especially with the time.

I actually would like to see Ryan's scum read on me or town read on tumble/koshi.

Tbh his play rn has been characterize by the SL conversation (which I really didn't like either of them in it, but did perhaps figured out what SL was aiming for regarding points). I want to see his logic on these reads to get a good footing on him. More then "koshi parts are smart". So when you do get back ryan (iirc you said u had to go), can you please explain any of the reads in a bit of detail?

Shape, I get the impression that you're not really calling out anyone. You're mediating a lot, darthfoley calls it refereeing. Why is that?

Eh, I suppose its just the way I play mafia, and in general, approach life. I normally try to see things from different angles, which leads to me start asking questions, looking at other sides, etc. Tbh, mafia is easy for me to theroycraft and scum hunt as obs because I am not in the game, and don't have to worry about making posts and other stuff to keep up or push conversation through.

Its gotten me into trouble as either alignment in the past and prob. my downfall for early game play. Late game, Imo i get more zoned in, for better or worse.

I'm also a psych. major (this spring I get my master's finally) as well if that shines more light onto my thinking.

Wow i'm slow.

It actually took Darth's comment about the reads for me to figure out the majority of koshi's stance/points. I see what he means with the suck up thing, but i fully agree still with it. The other stuff does make some sense now looking at it. Does actually help clear up koshi's mindset rn for me over calix.
