didnt see that one coming

I suppose scum thought Wisdom was second biggest wagon and figured we wouldn't kill Ali due to that being too obvious -- we've been out WIFOMed

I'm guessing Mom(SS) and Bingle are most likely

Although im not so sure of any townreads yet going to review later

The kill? Interesting, I did.

I'd like to not share my reads this game if possible. Sadly I replaced into a low-content slot so it may not be. But then again people usually don't read me off of my reads so maybe it wouldn't help to share them.

No the kill was really obvious i mean i didnt see the Wisdom 8-ball coming

Fair enough.

Why has my slot received 0 pressure thus far?

Morning Tweet · Post Post #733 (ISO) » Thu Sep 30, 2021 5:24 am

Your slot has exactly 1 good thing going for it and that is that its hero solve was so out of left field it's hard to imagine scum saying it with a straight face

pedit: I forgot you were in the game at least twice, that's my guess (although i'm probably not the best person to answer that)

VOTE: duck

We’re in theoretical XLO. Smart I’m assuming you’ve read? What do you think about duck dodgers and all the questions he’s avoided?

Anyone happen to know why Wisdom was so sure worst is town? (or why anyone believes that would help)

I have read, yes, but I don't recall that. Can you link to some questions he's avoided?

Asking this for multiple reasons
Yes. Ali/Wis/Imagine we’re the EOD pushes. Taly brought that up already D2.

Which of these players is aware Wisdom is the 8-ball, I wonder

Pretty much this, I think. Mom just kinda disappeared from discussion.

It's a thought I had just now thinking about Bingle v. worstie

Previously I thought Wisdom was scum so I wasn't as interested as to why he townread worst (i figured worst was town)

Now though I know Bingle has been consistently pushing worst and no one else has been interested in that this game

Representative worst behavior. His ISO is full of fluff, and when you try to engage him over things that aren't fluff nothing comes from it and there's no follow through. He makes sense as a partner with literally every player and he's actively lurking behind vague non reads like "Bingle and Hiraki are similar" or "There's a better vote someone else could make" which actually tells us fuckall. His mom progression is ???

As a whole, ducky is doing just enough to give the impression that he's here and he's solving, but he's accomplished nothing all while putting on this mysterious air. He doesn't seem lost, is coming across as cheeky/cocky and yet there's no movement towards a solve that I can see.

Also, he's probably not an 8 ball.

I'd summarise how Mom got by without much attention as:
Early D1: town generally kinda passive
Late D1: everyone's eyes on the Ali/me/Wisdom drama
D2: puppies

Does anyone want to talk about how Bingle asked Wisdom a question, then hammered before getting an answer? That seemed (especially in hindsight with the 8-ball flip) scummy to me.

Because the push was weak, came exclusively at EoD and I wanted to know why it was happening? I don’t see why me being familiar with Wis has anything to do with that.

For the record, we’ve played semi regularly together for 8 or so years, but I wouldn’t consider us close by any means.

It was kinda bad

Bingle goes out of his way to be scummy at EoDs

The only thing is there is no reason to do it. I don't see why he votes Ali end of day 1 as scum or why he would feel the need to make sure 8-ball wisdom dies in such a rushed manner. Wisdom was gonna die anyway. It looks so bad rushing the elim on the 8-ball. Lol

Yeah… except him dodging all the quotes and questions is the scum activity that makes the vote good. Cmon Taly. Really.

In post 536, Bingle wrote:Hm. Perhaps I’m the only person in the thread not irrationally terrified by Wisdom.
Oh, my eyes are glued to duck. But I've not been a fan of
Wisdom's
replies toward me ever since EoD1 and their thread presence has fallen significantly upon the lack of
Alisae
elimination.

Also, you didn't answer my direct question about your read of
Wisdom
. I want to hear.

Also wasn’t alone in being evaded by duck, but I think taly was townreading him later (at the very least he wasn’t really listening to my case) so I don’t think Taly kill points to duck specifically.

Morning Tweet · Post Post #747 (ISO) » Thu Sep 30, 2021 6:13 am

So in a way it wraps back around to seeming uninformed because if i were informed Wisdom were the 8-ball I damn sure wouldn't ask Wisdom a question then just go fuck it and kill him

I wish Mom actually played so I had a better read there but yeah

I reviewed, Wisdom calls duck varying degrees of "town" to "locktown" but as far as i can tell never elaborates. Okay

Frustration. It’s not like that was the first time I’d asked why people were townreading duck, and as far as I can tell the answer has been pretty much “Deal with it” with absolutely no consideration of my arguments.
