Greetings, JacksonVirgo.

I will be very interested to hear your thoughts on the game, once you've had a chance to catch up.

[NorwegianboyEE]

Damn Farren, u one polite mofo.

[NorwegianboyEE]

Why don't you have tris on your coalition? I would change Scooby for tris and agree with this.

Why?

[Farren]

Doesn't matter how bad your read is on someone. They're still a human being.

[NorwegianboyEE]

Sure thing. That doesn't mean i trust you btw. I find you pretty sus. You seem almost too focused on looking good.

[Mystic Bear]

losing scooby might be the greatest tragedy in this game's history.

Welcome Jackson!

[StarToAYoungCulture]

Welcome

[NorwegianboyEE]

If i weren't being hated and forced out of the block by Mystic Bear i would have tossed Farren and Dostin into the non-townblock and healed me/Bugspray/Tris/Vanderscamp/Mystic Bear
That'd be an winning block for sure.

But no, gotta keep MB's ego up. He's got the game winning solve after all.

[Farren]

Meh. If that's the price of civility, so be it.

Your continued insistence on misgendering us does not reflect well on you Norwee.

What made you prop these people outside of just random?

wow we r so in sync we even post the same gifs

this isnt even discussed in our hydra discord

which btw already has 15000 msgs

Hey fam can you please sign your posts so we know who's speaking in each post, also there's no point in telling us your pronouns if we have no idea who the heck is speaking.

yes we discussed which 5 to nominate based on the vibe of their username

That answers my previous question.

we have 4 spots in the life boat so to secure your spot you need to town spew harder than you've ever townspewed before in your life

this post gives me red flashing brain lights

yeah baby i'll make you quiver

okay can i take that back its way more sexual than i thought it would be

Oh my...

Wtf is wrong with you. I didn’t even see it begin until now.

artificial reaction. caught scum

I can only assume these types of posts are from koba. Why? Because I hate how they post

This is a serious post.

All of my posts are serious. But this one will be more serious than most.

We are town.

We will decide the coalition.

We will win on Day 1.

In the unlikely event that this does not work, we will accept BoP D1 Execution.

But we will not fail. We will put together a winning coalition come Hell or High Water.

Buckle up your seatbelts because this game is not just going to be a game.

This is going to be an EXPERIENCE.

You will be able to tell your grandkids about this legendary game 60 years down the line.

It will be LEGENDARY.

FUCKIN' HYYYPE

I don’t care if i’m eliminated because of bad play by others. Go ahead, vote me.
Better prepare for the worst case scenario though, as unfortunately. I’m not scum because i’m "ghosting" or "defensive" or whatever BS justification behind the push.

This is a similar mindset/post that NEE had in the musical mafia large normal game where they were town. Just from this post I'm soul-reading NEE as town.

scooby and magic bear are same alignment

I could believe it.

dammit

No mod interference please?

What? Did the mod reveal something?

Just looks like that their pagetop got stolen.

The whole early interaction with NEE and Mystic solidifies my NEE TR.

FIRST

Looks like I gotta forget all the other posts before this.. I mean what posts?

ok gun to head who is on your coalition Norwee?

It doesn't work like that.
I have to think about my decision. I'm playing the game somewhat normally right now to gauge reactions and find real alignment tells.

This is obviously Town, everything is backing up that read for me.

CULT LEADER NORWEE
CULT LEADER NORWEE
CULT LEADER NORWEE

This drops Mystic to a SR, and not being able to know if this is Koba or not is actually hurting my read on them.

meta is trash

Not the biggest fan of these small pop-ins.

Actually it's STAYC shortened. My bad.

Yeah, it's also a kpop group. Fun times

wow. it really is nice not to have to know who the scum are yet

I can let go the fact that MWolf thinks they're the shit but this blatant sheeping is just simply bad.

i will probably take them up on their offer

stop giving me bad vibes >:(

This literally gave me chills, this is exactly what I was thinking so they're probably more townier than I originally thought so they probably a null to me now.

I think the optimal strategy here is to include me in the coalition as I am town, and this would mean we only need 4 other towns in it to win

HEAL: Scooby Dooby Doo

Ok I believe in you
HEAL: Scooby Dooby Doo

I'll post again when I have a read

You are very quick to trust lots of people in a game where most of us don't know for sure who are the bad guys, especially if you are saying you don't have any reads.

I REALLY like this post.

norwee if ur town maybe u should lay out ur thought process cause rn all ur doing is obfuscating ur read process and movement via anger which can be easily faked regardless. The obfuscation when being prompted to provide more logic/a thought process/current thoughts is scummy.

Meanwhile u have players like scooby and tris who come off a sloose and are posting their honest thoughts.
If u wanna win with town u need to be cooperative in a townhunting stage of the game.

I was thinking along these lines and thinking that for town, the main motivation on everyone's mind right from the start of the game is going to be to make it as obvious as possible that they are town. Norwegianboy came into the game at the very start already defensive (in a part of the game where there is no risk for town to be miseliminated, so they have more important things to worry about like finding the right coalition and making it easy for other townies to find them), angry, and non-cooperative, which I think betrays a not-town mindset.

I do agree with this logic, I think it's sound although Norwegian collapsed under heat in a town game I played with them (with me being scum), as long as memory serves me right of course.

I keep getting distracted by the Norwegian / Mystic show.

Let's say Norwegian's scum. Norwegian's motive as scum in offering to support the coalition that doesn't include him in exchange for eliminating Dostin later is ... what?

Possibilities:
WIFOM. WIFOM is only meaningful to scum if there's scum in the coalition, or if it helps get scum into the coalition. The likelihood of Norwegian getting into any coalition at this point is slim to none, with odds on none. WIFOM would have to be aimed at getting Norwegian's partner into the coalition.

Dostin / Norwegian seems rather laughable as a team, but that's the only person I can think of that would make a sense from a WIFOM perspective. Doesn't seem likely.

Trying to get himself in somehow? Don't see how this would have any chance of working.

Trolling? Not having any idea what would work so trying to throw anything at the wall to see if it would stick? That's all I can think of.

WIFOM arguments are in itself WIFOM and I don't particularly like having them, having said that I do think Norwegian is Town for not hating being in the Coalition. Scum would want to be shoved in that boi so fast that they'll at least try and get Town-read whereas Norwegian isn't, although they still are posting content which makes me think they're not scum wanting to lurk and stay out of the Coalition as a gambit. I like you quite a bit, but not as much as NEE and Vander

I'll believe this is a genuine question.

We doubt STAYC is actually some refugee from some other site. too familiar with site meta/functionality. Feels like somebody who's played this setup before and would know scum have daychat.

Also sounds suspiciously like TaylorSwift.

Oh god not again

I think I unknowingly just skipped a few posts like I tend to do when catching up, goddamn.

UNVOTE:
HURT: all
ok Ill find another town leader

I nominate myself

Greetings, JacksonVirgo.

I will be very interested to hear your thoughts on the game, once you've had a chance to catch up.

Greetings

losing scooby might be the greatest tragedy in this game's history.

Welcome Jackson!

This is the ultimate suckerpunch to my gut.

CT - { }
ACT - { }
TR - { NEE, Vanderscamp }
TL - { dostin, Farren }
NR - { bugspray, StayC, Mystic }
SL - { }
SR - { tris }
ACS - {}
CS - {}

HURT: all
HEAL: Norwegian
HEAL: Vander
HEAL: dostin
HEAL: Farren
HEAL: JacksonVirgo
VOTE: tris

Which leaves bugspray, Mystic, tris and STAYC outside.
I'm not entirely sure how the coalition voting works but I think I got it.

If you disagree on someone I put/didn't put into it slap me in the face and explain why.

[NorwegianboyEE]

CT - { }
ACT - { }
TR - { NEE, Vanderscamp }
TL - { dostin, Farren }
NR - { bugspray, StayC, Mystic }
SL - { }
SR - { tris }
ACS - {}
CS - {}

What does ACT mean?
I think your reads are interesting tho. I’ll read back on Tris to see if i agree with your read. As i’ve kinda just sorted them as town until now.

[NorwegianboyEE]

Btw Stayc gifs are fine if you are at least somewhat useful. But you really haven’t been lately.

[JacksonVirgo]

CT - { }
ACT - { }
TR - { NEE, Vanderscamp }
TL - { dostin, Farren }
NR - { bugspray, StayC, Mystic }
SL - { }
SR - { tris }
ACS - {}
CS - {}

What does ACT mean?
I think your reads are interesting tho. I’ll read back on Tris to see if i agree with your read. As i’ve kinda just sorted them as town until now.

Last time I used this format for reads I explained what each meant.

CT - Confirmed Town
ACT - Australian Capital Territory and also Almost Confirmed Town
NR - Null read.
ACS - Almost Confirmed Scum
CS - Confirmed Scum.

I am fairly confident in my TR's, less so but still confident in my TL's and I think the second scum is in my nulls.

HURT: all

VOTE: tris

[tris]

you're wrong of course, but my instincts say you're still town.
