Mini Normal 2146: Cute Pets Game Over, Town wins

[farside22]

Ok a few questions:

1. Why are people voting for me?
2. Have I claimed yet? If so, what did I claim?
3. Who else has claimed?

Also hi Farside, nice to see you again!

Hi bm! You know i was killed n2 and that was before that game went to shit. So i don't hate you.
If your town i hoped you learned from that game.

This interaction with ns makes me feel better about him.

Haha I didn't know anyone "hated" me as such, just thought I sucked! It's just a game, and I tried my best...

Don't worry, in every game since I've been very clear that my reads suck. And actually, I've been on a good run of form since then!

NS is my only scumvibe at the moment - it's a bit of a copout to just stick with your read from Page 2, when it's now Page 24, and it wasn't a very good read to begin with. Easy scumplay, unlikely for town to be that obsessive (I realise people like me are the exception!)

Farside are you town here? I'm gonna need a pinky promise I'm afraid...

I am on page 6 so im not sure why ns still has a scum read from page 4.
Why is gypx scum? I know i had a scum ping on him early on.
Im town. Ill probably die by n2 again.

pre-emptive OMGUS eh? I might hold fire on the rest of my read through until we can all agree I'm not being lynched today. Let's go team!

no, I just thought you were double backing on your vig claim from espe. THen i realized it makes sense to wait for d2 if that were the case.

no, I just thought you were double backing on your vig claim from espe, meaning actually coming back and claiming it legitimately. THen i realized it makes sense to wait for d2 if that were the case.

I'll post some explanation on Gypx later, just read his ISO for now!

Yeah if you're alive in LyLo, I'm lynching you for sure. Maybe you should claim vanilla now just to try and stave off the inevitable NK

I've already posted more than my predecessor and 2 other players who were here since the start

You're seriously going to try and lynch me on Day 2 on the basis of a bogus Vig claim?

For the most part? I try to put a lot of emphasis on being transparent. You’re welcome to check my game history for a meta read to piss off cooldog, but other than an ongoing I haven’t played recently.

I used to be really good at being transparent and as I’m back I’m trying to refocus on that. Basically used to just town it up, figure out who of the people I’m used to playing with a lot is town, and work with them to sort everything out. Since I’ve been back there hasn’t really been anyone I’m used to playing with so I lost that side of my play so I frankly could be overcompensating on the other side.

@farside

This feels relevant

@bm

I’m more annoyed with espe than trying to be shitty with you- but if you do know the deal with it please explain

[notscience]

Basically I felt really weird and not sure how I wanted to play it coming in and just focused on brain spew and have since relaxed

1. Did I fool you before?

2. Looks like I sorta fooled you here if you're voting for me...

[Battle Mage]

well this could be short-lived!

Unfortunately I'm not going to spend time trying to explain what you already know, in respect of my predecessors actions which could scarcely matter any less anyway.

Instead I think the plan is try to survive and get a lynch on someone not in my town-bloc, preferably Gypyx-scum who everyone seems to have missed.

Ah sorry GG, I remember now!

hi farside and battle mage! welcome to the game.

i'm looking forward to us olds showing these whipper snappers a thing or two about mafia. here is an advanced move that will shock the readers: an aggressive wagon-hop based on intuition

[Battle Mage]

also GG you should have confidence in your ability to read me now, so maybe not lynch me Day 1? just sayin'

Hi Hoopla!

I'm not town-reading Unabombah yet but he is a good amigo of mine, so I feel slightly reluctant to him lynch him. I'm getting sentimental in my old age.

[Hoopla]

@turkey

thoughts on una? i sense a potential speedwagon opportunity...

~~

@BM

i always thought it was the olds who had the ability to pony up and make difficult decisions, unlike these kids who need to waffle on for 1000+ posts before lynching someone. don't tell me you've lost your touch!

Haha no I can definitely still bust a move or two, if the beat is right.

what is the case on Una?

[Hoopla]

another post directed to battle mage:

in my distant memories of you, i seem to recall you being a bastion of logic; someone who can be depended on to read in deeply to things. may i get your opinion on the logic i laid out in post 229 defending gypyx?

it seems to me, he wouldn't be searching for traitor tells if he were scum (unless there's

specifically

a traitor in the setup - but even then, it's overt and heavyhanded). to me, it's more likely to come from an overthinking town mindset.

[Hoopla]

what is the case on Una?

for me, it's a sort of pseudo- PoE - he's one of the few in the game, i haven't picked at least some tertiary indication of town tells.

i also sense that some other townreads aren't reading him as town and there is an opportunity to get this wagon going. i'm ready to compromise and organise a lynch wagon. my list has shrunk to about 4 or 5 players. he's one of them.

[Battle Mage]

a bastion of logic? I nearly spat frooty loops all over my screen!

I'll give your posts the dignity and respect they deserve after I've slept.

yea prolly…

At a glance, you're saying that he's town because he speculated randomly and pointlessly about who a mafia traitor might be? My initial thought on that is:

1. Speculation about scum traitors is a boring and pointless endeavour, and a good way for scum to post without posting anything useful.
2. Ain't someone genuinely hunting for a scum traitor more likely to be scum than town?

I was hoping not to read the game for a bit longer. Last time i replaced in my reads were pretty meh and improved with interaction.

Hey hoopla.
Read your view on gypx. Its weird to see someone talk about a traitor in the game. I felt like it was a weak reason to call a player scum.

[notscience]

A few people (namely me and agar) think there is as no reason a new person brings it up out of the blue unless they are scum with a traitor or the traitor

But lynching someone bc they might be a traitor is kinda a witch hunt
