Open 724 - Pick Your Power X/Y [Endgame]

[The Janitor]

I just let my thoughts flow on matters that stand out to me. How does that make me scum immediately? What you could do is weigh in on the matter itself. And I'm pretty busy replying to stuff I can form opinions about right now

[the worst]

Did I say you're scum? o.0

That's just it though. You didn't say your thoughts on matters that stood out. Exactly the opposite. You were commenting on things that were NAI (thus don't stand out) for you.

I'm not sure u are scum for it. It's a very good place to start though.

R U sure you wanna wagon your partner this early?

QFMFT tho

If you're stating your thoughts clearly and transparently most of your thoughts are either

1) unneccesarily paranoid--i.e. you're probably not experienced particularly with forming townreads?
2) that you don't like much of the progress town is making w sorting

For the record I suspect hidden alts are the bane of my existence

Was this aimed at me? I wasn't replying to but to Ico.

Eh I have experience with townseeking. No, I didn't like the initial sorting process based on the draft, may that be clear... I'd have more trust in what happens in the game itself. But as far as I know Mathdino's he's pretty okay at setup discussion so that's a difference between us I guess.

[the worst]

He's a setup wizzzard--also extremely careful giving out strong reads generally speaking. If you dislike the methods use it as a basis to adjust players who you think are unfairly read rather than trying to force everyone back to null yeah?

Use your PT to coach your scumbuddy, don't do it here. Too easy.

[The Janitor]

Probably a good idea... breakfast has made my mind some clearer

[The Janitor]

^ to the worst.

Give it to me baby! uhu uhu (them reads, I mean)

[The Janitor]

That's the thing I'm not really certain on reads after less than 12 hrs of a game.

But if you want it
Townleaning to SIMYK and the worst. Very slightly on you based off this type of prodding. Math feels townish due to some stuff I noted above but you know what I thought of his first post and immediate vote on me after a question.

[Iconeum]

If you don't have reads yet, that's fine. I don't expect you to, actually.

But now you are townleaning on SIMYK, while you had a nullread there before. What makes you townlean there?

[The Janitor]

Aside from being an active participant and thinking along well, it seems, she also acknowledged a bit of a flaw in Math's setup spec despite it resulting in her being townread, and the above quote (directed to me) seems like a townie attitude

I mean that's the question I want to see YOU solve - my prespective SO FAR is that Mathdino is compiling weak reasons to townread people and then STRENGTHENING or ADJUSTING them with the game's CONTEXT so I think he's town! BUT if you see the vagueness of the read as an interesting point to interact with I think you would be GOING somewhere with it and to me it looks like mostly a dead end （○□○）

[Iconeum]

H-honto ni?? ( ꒪Д꒪)

I'd like to know the IDENTITY of this GUESS personally...

pedit: （ ಠωಠ）

Alisae? Is that you?

[Ircher]

VOTE: Lovebird
I’ll catch up Saturday.

[Taly]

Oh shit Fast-ass game.

Multiple things I picked up through half-skim/half-reading. ((I'm going to reread later, though))

1)

I've seen everyone here before

{Almost50, Brassherald, Ausuka}

the most.

{Lalendra, Ircher, Mathdino, Lovebird, the worst, Iconeum}

to a lower degree.
I've seen the rest of the playerlist once or twice:

{mutant, Beefster, Simyk, The Janitor}

2)

Math

, can you explain to me your analysis of the draft in depth? It's NAI for someone to try and get a PR because it helps the alignment of the person it's under. I mostly play games where I'm more likely to get a PR than not. This is a preference, not an AI thing, unless I'm misinterpreting your post.

Honestly, I pre-planned the number I was going to send to the Mod BEFORE the full playerlist even signed up.

-

I didn't think to send a number higher than 10 because I had no clue what other people would do.

-

I figured since

{1, 2, 3}

were more likely to be repeated, and

{8, 9, 10}

were a bit too high, I went with the lowest in

{

4

, 5, 6, 7}

I'm actively working to be NKed due to loud AF gamesolving, so that's how that went...

3)

204 I don't see this coming from scum, pretty bold, and I see

the worst

is asking questions and making assessments.

Early townlean

4)

21

Lovebird

, you stated that the people on page 1 are town, can you provide some reasoning, and has that changed for you?

5)

Can people explain their reads to me on

Beefster

? Honestly, I like 16 of him, I don't see much benefit in discussing setup extremely early, I think that's likely to cause WIFOM later and this post tells me he's aware of too much information being spewed would end up hurting the town later.

6)

i have 5 reads already

- Talk to me about them, it hasn't been a full 24 hours yet so the quick 9 pages are fuzzy to me.

7)

138 I'm not fond of this post, you quoted

the worst

several times and then didn't really elaborate on your thoughts or engage with questions, I don't see your thought process.

VOTE: Iconeum

I may be unresponsive for the most, if not the rest of the day; I don't know yet. In either case, if I'm unavailable now, I'll be more active later. If I remain active, then I'll be keeping a medium standard.

I'm not in a good frame of mind for Mafia. X_X

Also, some of you already know this, but detailing your thoughts with questions and organizing them when you're posing them to me is the best way for me to get my thoughts out there and for worthwhile engagement.

Day 1 ends in (expired on 2018-05-15 20:00:00)

[Beefster]

Mathdino's role speculation always throws me for a loop. I should know by now that it's NAI.

the worst is being goofy. He's a lot more serious as scum. Town

Janitor/Saske are a possible scum team IMO

VOTE: The Janitor

[Lalendra]

i picked 2 not because i actually wanted a power role but because i wanted to fuck over scum

i see that did not work unless janitor is scum

anyway, every game, someone asks "what if scum WIFOM'd the draft???"
and every game, it turns out that no, scum actually does want power roles, they did not WIFOM the draft and pick the same numbers
the only person in this game i think would do that is A50

so anyway

saske is town by the draft imo

scum possibilities:
Iconeum
Janitor
the worst
{Beefster, Taly}
Lalendra
{Ausuka, Lovebird, brass}
{Almost50, mutantdevle}
Ircher (going for that guaranteed PR)

wishful thinking says hitting scum in the bottom half of the bracket will confirm other townies
VOTE: Beefster

Edit: when i started typing this post i was the first one here
so jinx guys

Inclined to sheep you because you're always power-town and better at this game than I'll ever be
But curious - If you have Beefster/Taly in the same bracket in terms of probability of being scum, why did you choose one over the other?

[Lalendra]

if anyone claims vengeful, policy lynch them (this is optimal play)

why

[Lalendra]

I like Simyk's angles and analysis but goddamn are those posts hard to read

I admire your commitment and effort with the caps lock and ascii but I find myself skimming because it's hard to decipher

[Lalendra]

Actually nvm I'm getting used to it now
