Micro 1088: Carbon 14 - Game Over

[Random Nurse]

So basically there's 5 Town, 2 Scum, but they're either Mafia or Werewolves. We get a Cop and a Seer but one of them is basically useless.

Not useless. They are still confirmed town, because we know the role exists.

I meant one of them is useless in the sense that one of them cannot discern Scum, making their ability useless. They could claim the role but they couldn't really offer verifiable information.

Meta Data

Just a heads-up: I typically struggle on Day 1 due to not having anything tangible to work with.

I work as a strictly nocturnal night nurse, so am asleep during the day. I also work 60-72 hours each week

As Town I am free to be aggressive because I legitimately don't know who is what, and I don't care about self-preservation.

As Scum I struggle to emulate the above play and frequently try to force myself to forget my role.

As Town I work best by consistent extreme engagement to generate content: it's extremely easy to do as Town and a chore for me to do as Scum because I already have insider knowledge and I'm a terrible liar. As Town it's extremely easy for me to make free-flowing-thought posts on a dime.

I don't quickhammers and appreciate intent to hammer being made first. At this point on I don't quickhammer and instead will announce intent to claim.

I prefer NOT to play using readslists due to my severe time constraints. It's easier for me to tell you how I feel about a player, and as Town if you ask me I should be able to tell you fairly soon how I honestly feel about them. If it takes awhile then I'm possibly Scum.

On Day 1 expect me to be playing based solely on gut reads and gut vibes: I have no tangible evidence to work with.

I'm making it a habit to post this post first at the start of each game, and then start reading.

So, trying to get more into this game. What is the most optimal way to approach this game?

It doesn't help that this game has basically ground to a screeching halt.

Is it better to do a no-lim?

Sheep, you're not Scum this game are you?

[Random Nurse]

But bullet points 3 to 5 don't look like your play this game just through your own admission

It's Day 1 and it's only page 3.

[Random Nurse]

Yeah but you said you use "consistent extreme engagement" and that it is easy to do as town.

consistent extreme engagement to generate content, in fact

While true, I guess I should clarify that that's not going to happen until the game gets going. We're still in RVS. Also I'm not always going to be able to do extreme engagement to generate content: it is my strength when I can get into it.

My current read:

• sheep: townlean, the MVP of trying to move game forward here
  
• PC: townlean? Not pretty sure about 39, it could be interpreted as a town using some sence of humor to try to push the game out of rvs and risking themselves at E-1 isn't a usual scum behavior after all.
  
• Dunn: townlean, much townier than the other players here looking at iso.
  
• ceej: Null, Only 1 rvs post and a reading list, so null for now
  
• imagine: slight townlean, his iso mainly consists of maths jobs, so thanks for the work!
  
• random nurse: Null? Just checked his previous game here: viewtopic.php?sid=&f=83&t=91156&user_select%5B%5D=37068
  So, most of the self-meta is correct? And I just can't get it why to wall this stuff up lol. Or is this part of the townie guide wiki page that tells you to 'tell the town your strength and weakness'?

I more or less get tired of having to explain myself and how I play.

So, now each game start I post a list I'll keep updating to help spare myself unwanted repeat questions.

This game is crawling like butter and I'm struggling not to replace out.

How can one do extreme engagement on page 3 or 4?

I already struggle with Day 1 and when the game is flowing like molasses I'm having a hard time here.

[Random Nurse]

nvm I realized why it doesnt work lol

Why exactly doesn't it work?

[Random Nurse]

So...

How does Town optimally play this game?

[Random Nurse]

You know, as Town I can't help but feel this game is on the harder side. Meaning, I don't think I like this particular open setup.

Can't do much about it now, and my Scumhunting game is sh*t Day 1.

[Random Nurse]

intent to hammer RN

Go ahead.

I'm VT by the way.

[Random Nurse]

If you're Town that was a stupid decision on your part.

[Random Nurse]

You had ZERO valid reason for doing that.
