Newbie 1926: Baseball (Game Over)

[ceejayvinoya]

Heck yeees.

Gimme like 12 hours to properly catch up and post thoughts here.

I didn't read before repping in, silly me.

[ceejayvinoya]

off the first few pages I'm liking marcus, the worst, urap2 and whig for town.

Dyno vs lavender felt like possible svs to me for some reason, I dislike them both there.

[ceejayvinoya]

The worst!!!

[ceejayvinoya]

Am town this time I swear

[ceejayvinoya]

Sure thing

[ceejayvinoya]

I like all of Robotnik's posts. Too bad he got repped out.

Godmid's posts contain a lot of stuff but I just can't seem to work those into something that would come from town. He's a tough null.

I'm about halfway through.

[ceejayvinoya]

Ugh godmid's posts are a headache to read and mostly fluff. Look at his 206. It's basically just "I'm town from my PoV so that means your reads are wrong.".

[ceejayvinoya]

I like Denmon's 215. It's basically my thoughts on Ryno's "play"

[ceejayvinoya]

yea I struggle with his early posting a fair bit as well but I do think he becomes more transparent and 'warms up' so to speak - go to his last few posts if you wouldn't mind, I'm curious to see what you think

I'll get to those

[ceejayvinoya]

I agree just not sold on whether or not that pickup is AI do you think scum!DENMON would be nervous about TMI making that post? or do you think it's a highly towny thing to say?

Probably not, Denmon did say he has a fair amount of experience.

Slight townpings since Lavender looks like is headed to a mislynch at this point unless he's scum with Denmon.

Like I don't see why scum!Denmon defends town!Lavender

[ceejayvinoya]

Ugh 269 is a gross post from Denmon.

He seems to be scumreading the worst from the way he is posting? I don't know, that's how I see it.

Still not so sure how to read Godmid

Also need to see more reads from lavender.

And Ryno is annoying for some reason.

Off to page 12

[ceejayvinoya]

DENMON has been pretty consistently townreading Lavender -- I'm not sure what he does other than defend her tbh

Maybe this

is

just Denmon + lavender lols.

[ceejayvinoya]

whoever scum are, they're posting well
I'm suffering from wanting to townread nearly every slot when I go back and read ISOs

Welcome to the feels I have back at shore leave

[ceejayvinoya]

Liking Lavender now off page 13.

Not so sure what to think of Denmon anymore.

And marcus is ehhh

[ceejayvinoya]

I think I've asked this a few times, can someone point out the benefit of lynching someone today when we could wait for more information?

This might actually be towny for ryno

I'm pretty sure a willingness for no-lynch would be something a newb!scum wouldn't have.

[ceejayvinoya]

Ehhh possibly tvt

[ceejayvinoya]

Am caught up.

My reads look like

{Urap2, the worst, Ryno, Lavender} townie
{Teacher, Denmon} - ?????
{Godmid, pvturist} - lynch

[ceejayvinoya]

VOTE: Godmid

[ceejayvinoya]

yes but i'm not aggressively bad at mafia
nancy is a valid example - in starcraft i positioned her for a mislynch for aaaaaages then went in for a lategame pocket
then the last two games since then i've gotten away with lolpocketing her because she's been expecting me to refuse to townread her as scum

scissor paper rock analogy, i like being funny but i like winning games as well. i don't do downright idiotic stuff to players who know what to look for.

this is pretty WIFOMy though and we suffer from the bookend that how i'd approach this as scum doesn't matter. i just think your sr on me is a little lukewarm

I don't think you have a choice but to pocket me in a newbie game, let's be real

Wild shot here: how would you expect town!worst to behave to you here?

[ceejayvinoya]

Sigh. I'm going to fuck off for a while and let you two sort this out.

[ceejayvinoya]

The worst is town.

You're letting your paranoia eat you, imo.

I was just on a game where I got pocketed by the worst and I expected him to act very differently if he's scum here again.

[ceejayvinoya]

What’s the count?

CJ you got more or good?

Been skimming just want to know for when I read up tonight.

Yeah I'm okay

[ceejayvinoya]

I don't really have a preference between denmon and godmid.

Either is fine.

I'll probably switch to the other if were still undecided and a couple hours away from deadline.

[ceejayvinoya]

VOTE: Shoshin

Curious vote. I wonder how one messes up like this.

[ceejayvinoya]

VOTE: Shoshin

Curious vote. I wonder how one messes up like this.

probably not significant
it's strange he's voting your slot at all imo

I nitpick everything that interests me. I leave the thinking if it's significant to other people

Yeah, I wanna know the why of his reads too.

[ceejayvinoya]

I don't think I'd like a massclaim. I'm worried it will screw with town more than with scum, tho I do see that it will force scum to commit to a role.

[ceejayvinoya]

@ceejay, can you speak more on your read of me?

Am not really sure teacher. Your predecessor got more awkward as the game dragged on, then you repped in and redeemed the slot and I sort of liked that. I'm sort of hanging back and seeing what else happens.

[ceejayvinoya]

I kind of want to vote ryno.

He's been full on awkward most of the game.

Same goes for denmon.

[ceejayvinoya]

VOTE: denmon

Urists plea, though mistaken, strikes me as legit feelings, especially after retreading him overnight.

Denmon hasn’t been on site for a full week. I’m convinced that one wagon was on scum; and that he went to me because his partner was on Godmid.

Does this mean there is one scum in {urap, ryno}? That was the godmid wagon before denmon's vote.

[ceejayvinoya]

VOTE: Ryno

Excuse me? Scumreads me and the worst earlier, then hops on the Denmon wagon? Woah there.

[ceejayvinoya]

Your two statements don't quite merge. Do you scumread denmon or no?

You implied that you changed your mind, having said that changing your mind is allowed (and I agree there). But that would mean your scumread shifts from me/the worst to denmon, but you say you don't necessarily scumread him.

I hope you understand my confusion because this post of yours only cements my scumread on you.

[ceejayvinoya]

Arghhh darn it

I concede

VOTE: ceejay

great job Ryno

[ceejayvinoya]

That's definitely the way to play most town power roles. I think you overdid it a bit with the amount of scumreads you were getting but eh you still got me

[ceejayvinoya]

Do me too! Hahaha

And dammit, denmon never came back after I saved his ass day 1

[ceejayvinoya]

Yeeeet gg cjv! Your scumgame has evolved a ton.

Well done, Ryno.

tbf I think I mostly just rode sho's towniness in the early game

[ceejayvinoya]

Ceejay, I also think your scum game has evolved, although I've not read the whole game.

Aww thanks

Hope to play with you again soon

[ceejayvinoya]

@TW Thanks for the feedback, I'll keep it in mind.

@Shoshin Thanks as well! It was a bit of a shame that you didn't have as much time for the game, but irl stuff happens.


Also, happy birthday @CJ!

Thanks Godmid!!!

And sorry for getting you lynched early. You were playing well, and I would have agreed with the worst's townlean on you if I had been town
