Eh, I think the game was a town win anyway: Antihero was obviously town, Wisdom was obviously town, you were obviously town, and I think I did a good job being town even before the hiplop push. The only players not so town were the doctors, yes, but Scatterplot was still looking town even without a claim, and toGorkington wrote:sorry things ended up swinging so hard in our favour because of claims.otherpeople (even if not me) Ankamius looked town. Both of them were getting hard-defended by town players, and the hiplop townread was stale.
I knew you were a VT faking cop, but that might have been because I was a VT faking cop.Wisdom wrote:RC - I thought Anti's D2 opening post was a guilty on Sakura, so I pretended I had the guilty to draw the nightkill. Of course that went great...

I don't think I'd be a good candidate for rising star; that award seems to imply I'm good as both alignments yet my scum game is nothing remarkable. (I also have five years of off-site experience, so I'm not exactly new. Just new here.) I do feel like I have a shot at paragon, though I still make mistakes, like my Ankamius push.
Nah, I didn't even realize Spiffeh was a cop, nor Spiffeh's results. They had to be pointed out to me. It was me correctly guessing Ankamius's role off of incorrect 'crumbs. Same principle, though.

Gorkington said it best: your pushes felt very wooden and stiff, giving off the impression of being insincere. There were also many times you took stances that felt "convenient" to take, like when you called Firebringer-Expedience both town. You have to admit, given Firebringer as scum and Expedience as my unflipped (but correct) third scumread, seeing things like that easily can give the impression of you being their scumbuddy.Ankamius wrote:What was your case on me either way?

Yeah, content was what I was masking this game. The vast majority of it was just being very blunt about my reads and not pushing out my reasoning when I normally would have. I actually didn't have any particular reason for 1-2 reads that I had early on either, which is how it kind of snowballed into my view of the game becoming so fucked up day one.
So the biggest reason my pushes sucked so much is because I was basing like 90% of it on nothing, basically.-

That was actually my first-completed game on-site for what it's worth, and the game I started second. (The first game I started was the previously-mentioned open. But by the time it was late-D2, when my reads improved there, I had already completed many games I had started later, most notably, Suikoden.)pie wrote:there was a micro game me and Spiffeh had with her where me and bork were scum and we obliterated the entire town. IT CAN BE DONE
I do sometimes worry that people are going to burden-of-proficiency me in the future, when it's incredibly random when (if at all) I name the scum. Sometimes, I'll have it on D1, other times, not until lylo. It's happened to me before, on my home site, where the same expectation grew of me to catch scum on D1, which I couldn't always do. That's one reason I love listing: I can give reads but not be expected to explain much. If people follow, they follow; if they don't, they don't.AKA, rBree2. Casual tryhard.

I thought your play would be really ballsy if you were scum because your reads were counter to most people's reads and you were pretty fearless about not going along with the crowd. I was townreading you for that until I got paranoid of you.The failure mode of clever is asshole.

Releasing it is fine.
I thought we were doing okay until Ranger decided to vote hiplop, that indeed probably won the game for town. It was surprising how efficient that lynch was, before then there were a lot of disagreements and we could easily hide in the noise.
I found this game difficult to be involved in because of how fast everything moved. My stances were bad not because I was newbtown, but because I was scum and had little capacity to make convincing reads through all the posts, so I guess this kinda worked??-

And then I was going to hit him with NUMBERS. Assuming random kills and random protections among the vanillas, there'd be a 62.5% chance of one of us getting a protection in between Night 4 and Night 5, setting the game back to odds with an extra lynch and forcing a win anyway.
(There's a strategy that raises that to a 77.78% chance of forcing a win, by the way. But I'm going to leave that one as a puzzle. Good night!)

Two weeks later:
SO ACTUALLY the real odds are 58.33% (7/12) and 72.22% (13/18). Sorry, I know I'm the only person who is bothered by this, but I couldn't let bad math stand. Carry on!As I move my vote
