open 841: concgratulations to the winners and losers

Pooky if you actually want to engage on that vote you should give something. I do not think you understood what I was doing in the Mini Normal and am very convinced you took the wrong lessons from it.

I'm not going to do historical analysis and lecture you again, but I am very confident you do not know how to read me and you should dialogue about the present.

looool I’m not even offended

and i'm still somewhat suspicious of catboi's 21 but he obviously isn't super into the game yet so idk we'll see. the sleepless vote was a good point tho

This was generally a good set of reads though I'm less sure of iv/mare. I didn't like midway's focus on just the doubles.

I'm confused why mare made a huge deal over "OMG Cake is slow at catching up!!" like, ok... who cares how long it takes cake? There's plenty of people around now, like interact with people, don't just go "I hate people catching up!!"

ahhh I see, so the plan is to just call me scum in hopes I flip scum, so that you can then go "I have a 100% success rate at catching scum based on draft order!" only issue with that plan is I'm not scum lol
Why are you assuming he's saying this to you as town?

Everyone here is town until I'm convinced otherwise? I don't see the problem

Skimming through 9:12 maybe I'm wrong to be skeptical of IV's lines about not being this way as scum. I don't have time to go too indepth but there's a focus on buddying/easy reads, here seems a bit more freewheeling and discursive.

In post 263, catboi wrote:[On IV's massclaim suggestion]

Doesn't "help" but the mindset is almost always town driven because scum are never going to be so bold as to suggest the idea if they believe it to be a pro-scum move, as doing so just draws negative attention to them and is unlikely to get cooperation. Way more likely to get floated by town who are trying to experiment - don't think I've ever seen scum propose it, actually. (day 1 mass is more viable in a cosed setup, in here it's pointless and bad)

Look at the motivations, not whether the suggestion is helpful/unhelpful

Can you weigh in more specifically on the fact that it was IV who suggested it? My impression of IV has been that he is in fact not the strongest mechanically, but he's got to at least have some positives in mind before suggesting it. I definitely think he is capable of doing "dumb" suggestions like that as scum hoping it will get townread for exactly that reason.

Finally rolled mafia.

The real answer is both that Faker was actually meant to be a bit more congenial/personable, and I'm stressed enough in real life that I don't really want to stress over mafia.

I intentionally sat back and decided that for once I wouldn't strive to be the absolute best player at the table but settle for improving myself and maybe trying my hand at the puzzle aspect, which I historically do not care about or enjoy in the slightest except as a means to an end.

Hi everyone. I pretty much agree with Datisi’s thoughts on flow trap not being w/w with SS. It is more likely than not that scum has someone who was aware of SS pattern, but not guaranteed. Having meta numbers seems a little broken lol
this post kinda bothers me tonally. it feels too agreeable (ok and not just because they said I agree with Datisi)
