MT 2263: Web of Lies - Game Over

[StrangeMatter]

Idk.

Because your post looks like imitating brainstorming.

I have reasons.

Hey everyone.

What do you mean by "reasons" here?

[StrangeMatter]

Can you explain those reasons and how you came to the conclusion of "initiating brainstorming"?

[StrangeMatter]

Well, that's upsetting to just be just outted after claiming, and especially after telling people to not reveal this.

[StrangeMatter]

Bottom of page 25 and before I read the other 4 pages I am speculating the "Modified" TA can check if the target has access to "more than one hood". Like the standard TA can check if target can "communicate" so the modified probably gets if they can communicate on multiple channels. This makes Lukewarm a Miller to them at the very least.

Considering I am a Modified TA myself I'm just assuming that it is the same modifier here. The modifier states that my role will ignore the fact that people are in the same PTs as me, so if someone like Noraa was in another PT from the ones that I was in, I'd have gotten a "Can communicate" but didn't. Mostly assuming that if I died they would've had the same role as me

[StrangeMatter]

I mean an unknown Modified Traffic Analyst wasn't going to be anything the scum team would get scared of unless it was specifically this modification that I have considering I had only two people I could theoretically confirm and that's obviously gone and now I'm a glorified VT wheee.

[StrangeMatter]

It's fine just have to make the best of the worst. We have two confirmed town today and one tomorrow so it's fine and could've been worse.

So relatively speaking though, what are people's reads currently looking like at the moment?

[StrangeMatter]

Two from my point of view being myself and you (Noraa) being town.

[StrangeMatter]

I can explain, but i will explain if half of players ask to (or i am really pushed), not just for you.

Alright, I'm also coming back to this, why do you not want to explain this read? Just seems a bit ant town to be doing this. I get that hiding some things are important, especially with this game where a good chunk of the stuff we shouldn't have said and ended up doing that anyways. But here it just seems like you're just trying to make yourself harder to read.

[StrangeMatter]

Another thing I want to note is that unlike most other games I've played with LLD they've felt far different from other games and that kind of worries me a little, since in other games it becomes apparent when LLD is town with the level of WIM (though a good record, it's also very low on data with only around one or two games, so take with a grain of salt). She usually gets into arguments and doesn't really want to move in other games which while here I don't get the same feeling there even though I have seen smaller hints of it.

You can't WIM tell LLD, it varies a lot from game to game for various reasons. Tone reading LLD is a tricky take too

Well if it works and has worked before, don't expect me to not try it at the least.

[StrangeMatter]

Lukewarm wants to keep them alive to confirm people. But they're probably just scum based on play.

I'd like you to explain your thought process behind this tbh.

In fact I'm just going to say I get really bad vibes coming from this.

[StrangeMatter]

Answer the question.

[StrangeMatter]

Rephrasing it here, can you explain how you came to the conclusion I'm scum based on play?

[StrangeMatter]

Hm. I don't disagree that I haven't been actively scumhunting, but how you keep shading me Bell, it partially reads like a play to keep options open. Though, more likely they just legit thing I'm scum and are completely wrong in that regard.

[StrangeMatter]

Hm. I don't disagree that I haven't been actively scumhunting, but how Bell keeps shading me, it partially reads like a play to keep options open (Reminded me of Mini 2235 where Kilgamayan shaded godfather to keep options open). Though, more likely they just legit thing I'm scum and are completely wrong in that regard.

EBWOP. I hate my grammar

[StrangeMatter]

No explaining that play is more they knew I wasn't godfather, shaded my slot silently with that in mind in hopes it removes the effectiveness of being a confirmed town.

[StrangeMatter]

In that Mini at least.

[StrangeMatter]

Okay, so Morning Tweet is not in another PT outside of the ones that I am in.

[StrangeMatter]

MT neighborized me too, which goes first.

Check neighborhood lol.

[StrangeMatter]

Uhh, ggs?

This game was very townsided tbh.

[StrangeMatter]

Would’ve been weaker had it not been modified, basically a meme role.

[StrangeMatter]

Things about balance, the scum slip definitely did not help.

Also, I think we got more benefit from StrangeMatter's ability then would have happened in 90% of this game being ran. She happened to be in the largest street hood, giving her the biggest chance of having any targets, AND the career hoods lined up for her, AND both of her valid targets happened to be neighborizors that we could coordinate making sure they worked.

I think simply having 4 career choices that were equally appealing would have caused her to have ~0-1 targets she could invest

I likely wouldn't have known how to use my role at all until it was explained how by Lukewarm, and information was given from others. Plus knowing the PTs from what people have said helped a lot more to figure out who to target from that.
