Mini 2136 | City That Never Sleeps [Game over!]

Eve made it out of D1 despite significant heat so we could focus on a townie and the cop. She's done nothing to show she's pro-town since then.

Again, I mostly ignored her I think because she was just so absent. Not great, but out of sight out of mind I think.

Oof don't do this guys. Eve does not deserve to skate by yet another day.

On this, this is one of those Bayesian things where I think town should be looking at what is
likely
not what is
possible

is it
possible
that Auro and I are a team and we decided to play D1 by arguing with each other in circles over whether and why I townread Eve, why I scumread Allo, why I townread Skitter, etc etc etc ad nauseum? Is it
possible
that I decided to fake getting progressively more and more frustrated at his endless series of "but why" questions, questions about reads that ultimately don't matter at all in securing a D1 mislynch on anyone but us? Sure, anything's possible.

But is it
likely
? Given that the odds of Auro/GL being the exact solve in a vacuum, is already very low? Given that my meta and history as a player consistently shows a lack of ability/willingness/effort to wall and tryhard so much on D1 when it's not needed? Given that neither of us were especially suspected slots on D1 in danger of lynch, and there was a wealth of slots (Karnage, Eve, Molla, Allo, Rex) barely posting half as much content combined?

I

don't

even think you two are the scumteam! I was saying it was possible. I don't think it's likely, which is why I'm not even voting either of you.

That doesn't make me feel that much better.

Come on GL. I know we haven't agreed on everything, but try thinking of your case for why Eve is town.

i agree with your points that his tone/selection of words feels a little fake sometimes

also i think Auro is town so i'm just going to sheep him

Hmm that reasoning is a little weird when she already did scumread Crayon for other reasons. It's interesting that both times she votes Crayon it's "I'm sheeping X"

I think this is much of her game today especially. At least if I'm alive you'll get content from me and we can talk about things. If you lynch me, you're basically priced into lynching Eve because you're not going to be able to sort her out any better tomorrow. And if somehow she's town, it's game over.

Same goes for you! Good luck to both sides!

acryon · Tue Jun 02, 2020 1:14 am

Very glad I was right on my instinct of BB and Titus at least! I'm honestly also not sure how skitter kinda skated by. Thinking about my play, I kept meaning to go back and look at them and just didn't. Really well done by both slots!

Also that GOAT mafia PT. Never seen such an interesting/interactive thread.

I tend to talk a lot on scum pts
I have a couple that went to 30+ pages each

That's great, and you guys were awesome! Really fun to read through that.

Very astute!
also this was also right ... but i was pretty sure if she got lynched it would be functionally irrelevant because people would forget about it

Yeah and the problem here was that we had multiple townies who agreed to it too like GL/Auro.

I know I struggled this game with letting playstyle and effort influence my reads to much. I know effort and playstyle are totally NAI, but I still seem to let it influence me.

I just couldn't get in sync with town and they couldn't get in sync with me. I take responsibility for that. I did debate lynching Skitter at lylo minus one day but felt wholly unsupported, so I went to Eve instead. I suppose I can figure out ways to make myself easier to work with, even when my methods are tarnished. This was a rare game where scum had no fucks given the entire game, which really fucks with VCA. I am glad I was able to see GL town though.

I would play with all of you again. We got trounced due to 2 v 7 mountainous. But that trouncing was fair and completely within the spirit of the rules. GG scum well played.

Eh idk. It was tough because you inherited a slot that had basically done zero, so you had to start from scratch and people struggled with your VCA in light of all the wagon manipulation. So I don't think it had much to do with you at all, just some weird circumstances.
