Open 765: Haunted Village (Over)

[Unstuck in Time]

I'm reading Vorkuta town for the setup spec.

Little scum lean on Tris for sort of discouraging it. Had that on NaCl, but quickly came back around after realizing the scum knew the roles already. That also comes out as a slight townslip, but I don't put much weight at all into slips.

Also don't like how quick that wagon built up on Vorkuta.

BP

Don't read him town for the setup spec - he's done it as both alignments.

Thanks. I don't have any experience with him, and in a vacuum particularly with this setup where scum knew the roles it felt town.

Sorry, that was BP.

Wanna vote Hoptic with me?

Oh man I feel so popular with people fighting over my vote

That hydra has a really interesting dynamic with me hating everything Hec has to say and Hop being... much better, but I think we'll be able to read them better with time.

I want NaCl, Ben, and he Is to come by and start existing so I can get a clearer picture of things

[Vorkuta]

he Is

TRIS

Also chemist's story about how I setup spec as scum comes from TFC9++ and I have to stare at him long and hard if he thinks that it's a strong example of how I play as scum

Ok, i'll make sure to pretend i'm a mafia professional from now on.

You don't need to pretend you're a master, I mean I've played probably a hundred games and have been on this site for 3 years and I'm still learning. But consistently using newbism as an excuse is a bad look. I remember a player from when I joined who constantly used the newb card as scum.

[Gamma Emerald]

I find it weird we're getting a day one bandwagon going so early, especially kicked off by the person being voted. A jester role maybe? Maybe mafia mates teaming up to add confusion?

:shrugs:

I actually an interested to see how this plays out!

UNVOTE: Hoptic

VOTE: Vorkuta

Did you read the setup

Mafia definitely need to read the setup and (some) town can get away with not doing it. Some possibility that he’s trying to townslip here (or it could just be a townslip)
-Hop

Ok this logic is really shitty and promotes bad play.
VOTE: Hoptic

rude

i havent read the setup

[Gamma Emerald]

Also how is calling not reading the setup bad play "rude"

[Gamma Emerald]

Can't wait until October

Honestly same

the songs that've been revealed are already fire

Songs for what

Reading me based on TwoFoldC9++

I don't think that's what he did at all.

[Hoptic]

I don’t think we should spend so much time figuring out power roles come day 1. Let’s focus on scumtells.

Are you trolling? Fucking stop it if you are.

Relax, son, I'm not trolling. Why do you think I'm trolling with that post?

Townreading Vortuka for setup spec. Though, having thought about it again, I don't think that alone is a good reason.
The way Vorkuta discusses it and the tone he uses is towny for me. But the act itself of discussing the setup is NAI.
Scum could certainly use it to pick up free town points while also fishing for town PRs based on how people contribute to the discussion.
-Hectic

This seems like an excuse to town read Vorkuta. The "two" reasons you've given to townread them are the same - "way" and "tone".

- Phoenix

Yep, it's not really a substantial read. I townlean him for tone/genuineness and that's about it right now.

Gamma's recent posts are chuck full of LAMIST WIFOM OMGUS ATE elements and I think we can POE lynch him now based on VCA and WKING.

Essay is on the horizon.

Gamma is likely town sooo.....no.

I don't think that's what he did at all.

I have 5 scum games on site, and setup-spec'd only in 1 as scum, and those circumstances were completely different.

[Hoptic]

Yeah, I townread him too so far.

[Vorkuta]

CogDis

Wat

Cognitive dissonance.
Feels like he just wanted to use fancy terminology to score points as opposed to making a solid argument IMHO

[Gamma Emerald]

Relax, son, I'm not trolling. Why do you think I'm trolling with that post?

Nothing you are posting looks genuine. So if you're town trolling I'd like you to stop so I can read you better. As it stands your posting is scummy as hell.

Oh I know what it means but as you said, how the hell does cog-dis factor into that, they have the same Vorkuta read.

[Gamma Emerald]

If it looks like I SR Vorkuta... I'm just giving a reason to scumread Vorkuta so I can say that RVS wagon isn't completely unjustified. Based on an ISO skim I'd say Vorkuta is towny.

This looks awful but I think it's not scum motivated. I could see someone taking it that way though.

[PenguinPower]

Yeah, I townread him too so far.

-Hectic

wut?

You just said you wanted to POE lynch him...

[Gamma Emerald]

I feel like a lot of these reads being formed are based on previous meta. Anyone want to talk about isolated alignment-indicative stuff that's been said thus far? I'll start writing my comprehensive essay on the setup meanwhile.

-Hectic

I don't think I have any meta reads as of yet

Okay maybe I read this post wrong
But a whole lot of other posts from Hectic feel fake.

[Gamma Emerald]

Kinda wanna post a read list, just so I can organize them better

Because this feels like town!Gamma...
