open 914: the coalition

[Moros]

aventurine seems ok to me.

[ceejayvinoya]

ceejayvinoya i worry that he could be trying to look like he isn't trying to get townread. the passivity feels deliberate.

sorry but this is how I usually roll

also I fail to see how this could be worrying

[ceejayvinoya]

??????????

[Cutter B]

cutter b seems lost in a town way to me.

Absolutely true!

[Cutter B]

HEAL: Tsawwassen

I think Tsawwassen was genuinely interested in figuring out my alignment when they tried helping me talk more.

[implosion]

words simply cannot express how voraciously i anticipate aventurine's takes. Each passing minute a torture.

ceejay, care to like, justify any of your takes or give us a sense of where you're at broadly?

Same

i mean as long as aventurine is nowhere near the coalition am okay

their approach to the game strikes me as unnatural compared to everyone else and I greatly dislike the lack of concrete thoughts coming from that direction

cutter b most prob town just from how earnest i feel they are. Not sure if thats the correct word but its the first one I thought of

I feel comfortable placing you and Black as town

As for moros I feel that theyre mostly okay but its also the one I'm least confident on. this could also easily be may

Sorry for the wait. I have three tests tomorrow and a paper I need to complete. I'll type out the post sometime on Monday evening.

[Tsawwassen]

131 is a joke that undermine its own arguments

it wasn't a joke.

What am I thinking right now?

[Tsawwassen]

the thing that i started to not like about implosion is that i think he seems very logical but some of the axioms that he is starting with in order to derive his reasonings feel too strained to be taken as given.

i think that mafia who wants to be seen as logical and correct but also wants to reach specific conclusions may employ such a strategy. he still seems good to me aside from that but it makes me more afraid to trust him.

I see your point - on other setups I would be more paranoid of his plays here, but in this setup I think he's town hunting for the coalition, so I'm more lenient on townreading him here

[Black]

I'm healing cj but I don't actually townread them yet

I'm good with including implosion and Moros in the coalition though!

Can you expand on your thoughts on ceejay

[Tsawwassen]

ceejay feels okay, I'd even be willing to swap him with one my of coalition votes maybe

[Tsawwassen]

HEAL: Tsawwassen

I was! I wish you'd talk more though, or else...

Who do you think is trying to weasel their way into the coalition?

[ceejayvinoya]

HURT: moros
HEAL: Tsawwassen

[Black]

Townreading Black somewhat, but not gonna lie I got a gut feeling that Black vs May might have been some sort of distancing play, so I don't want the coalition to have both of them in it, I'm fine with Black being in it though!

Finding Umlaut townie during Moros vs Black.

Cutter B confuses me the more she posts... is it just me?

Don't have a read on May right now!

This coalition looks good to me right now!

HURT: all
HEAL: Black, Moros, Tsawwassen, implosion, Umlaut

I vibe with these reads and this coalition

In fact if I HEAL: Tsawwassen then we have the same list

[Black]

I don't really want ceejay, Aventurine, May, or Cutter in the coalition. I think there's a good chance both scum are in that group

[Moros]

aventurine seems ok to me.

??????????

i think it hasn't done very much that feels more likely to be scum or more likely to be town. you don't agree?

[ceejayvinoya]

but this is exactly what worries me about aventurine

you can tell that they're posting, but you can also tell there is not enough substance in their posts to figure out "is this scummy?" or "is this towny?"

it feels like doing something just for the sake of doing something

and that's not very town

[Tsawwassen]

"seems ok" feels like an endorsement

[Moros]

i use "ok" to mean i am not townreading the person but i am setting them aside for now. it's more neutral. i don't think i agree with ceejayvinoya's approach to reading aventurine.

what would scum do?

what would town do?

am not asking for specifics. Just a general idea of what you expect to see from both alignments

[Moros]

scum would want to get in the coalition and play in a way that will make people think they deserve to be in it. town would want to look for other town players and not let scum in the coalition.

[ceejayvinoya]

i mean... you're not wrong

I just wish your answer was less mechanics related

nvm i guess
