I stopped playing meta because whats funny is when I play with mastina, she's the opposite alignment I end up reading her as. Almost a 100% accuracy of me reading her incorrectly. I'd literally go hey if I townread mastina, you shouldn't.In post 1743, mykonian wrote:I never did meta all that much. I got "in tune" with a few select people? Where their thoughts made sense and but it stopped being that way if they were scum. I joined at the end of where you could consider MS to be small, but I read a lot of those games, I think from this game MS kind of feels small again? Where it becomes that everybody kind of knows everybody because you keep playing the same people. Or maybe people happened to join this game with lots of people they like. So clearly I'm a bit strange in how I can't tell Bell is town, or Enchant is going to leave anyway, or that Noraa tends to be a dominant voice? So I have some catching up to do in that sense.In post 1739, Ginngie wrote:Okay idk if this makes sense and is kinda game related but not really, do you find it refreshing playing with a bunch of people, who for the most part haven't played with before? I can't meta anyone here if I'm honest except maybe Dunn but it sounds foolish to try and meta dunn anyway.
But otherwise, coming back nothing much has changed really. It's still the same game, It seems like people still hunt by similar tells. I think I might be standing out somewhat but I was always a bit of an agent of chaos in my games, so idk if it's that or that I'm oldfashioned. Thankfully Andante did some of the chaotic stuff day one, so I didn't have to
It's fun playing with some new people and figuring out how they go about the game. And it's somewhat fun to relearn the (forum) game.
I will say I'm seeing that like every few years there's a new pocket of players that all play and get to know each other well. I think enough time has passed where I'm starting to see who the new consistent players are and how they're interacting with each other. I will say it's starting to make me feel old seeing join dates of last year and I've been playing since a decade ago. What i personally like is that coming back, I don't really yell or curse at players anymore. Going for more of a nacho route where I try to remain calm and advocate for talking through and through. I will say I do like your style, like this game i've decided to encourage my pair to try and eliminate me; which, ngl, is a new play for me and kinda went fuck it lets see how it plays out. Also 100% honesty, I kinda tailor my play based on the mod and idk, I hosted Pooky for one game and this kinda play is what I feel like what Pooky would want in his game so I'm going for it.
