A slot that's hard to differentiate doesn't suddenly become less valuable to cult when town is aware of the value within it. It's only true when there's only one such slot in the game, which there isn't.

I feel like we're on two different pages here. You said I'm hard to differentiate because I'm a lurker, which means Korina gains more value from culting me. But now that I've been wagoned and I'm in several players' lynchpools, Korina recruiting me later in the game is high risk, because I'm under scrutiny. My slot has already lost its value by engaging in this 1v1 with you.

Yes, I think she has higher cult equity and is pushing me to take the pressure off of her.

In fact Ank, you wanting to know when I was done posting earlier shows exactly that. That my strategy to force mass-apathy is working. This game will be won for town if you guys can figure out how to combat me trying to hinder you. Getting the cultists figured out will also assure a win, but getting into my head will always win for town. Good luck though townies. You’ll be needing it. I’m not going to lay down and let you take this win from me.

And anarchist, good luck. You’ll need it.

I wonder if Homura could be getting coached

Homura · Post Post #558 (ISO) » Fri Mar 13, 2020 9:27 pm

I don't know whether to be insulted or complimented by that.

Homura · Post Post #559 (ISO) » Fri Mar 13, 2020 9:29 pm

I'll be insulted.

Why do you think I'm being coached, Auro?

Auro · Post Post #560 (ISO) » Fri Mar 13, 2020 9:33 pm

The arguments you're throwing + the timing maybe?

Homura · Post Post #561 (ISO) » Fri Mar 13, 2020 9:35 pm

Elaborate on the timing part?

Auro · Post Post #562 (ISO) » Fri Mar 13, 2020 9:41 pm

Actually, scratch that. I got the feeling you were discussing play with Korina while the rest of the players were posting, especially about why you wouldn't be the N0 cult, but it's very mild.

How does cult gain from clearing you as a cult target in that case?

What does Alyssa gain by pushing you against conspire who is a stronger wagon with more weight behind it?

RCEnigma · Post Post #564 (ISO) » Fri Mar 13, 2020 9:44 pm

Auro what's your case on ank about? In 8 words or less.

RCEnigma · Post Post #565 (ISO) » Fri Mar 13, 2020 9:45 pm

Or what you think about conspire's equity. In as many words as you want.

Isn't the whole point the fact that I

wasn't

cleared and that I'm the most likely cult target because I lurk?

Homura · Post Post #567 (ISO) » Fri Mar 13, 2020 9:50 pm

My wagon was top wagon for several pages and Conspire wasn't being pushed at the time.

Hey I'll just put it out there that I'm not seriously thinking through anything and going more on "gut" feels, so even though I was cheekily responding "gut" a few times there's some truth to it.
I'll ask to wait for some time before I give my case on Ank though.

I think Conspire is town. I don't think anonymous hydras are a good pick for N0 cult

at all

, and besides that, I don't find their posting awkward in a scummy manner - I read it as them trying to get into the game but not finding time, if that makes sense?

Apologies, Homura - just replace 'coached' with 'planned'. I'll not treat you like a newbie

Auro · Post Post #570 (ISO) » Fri Mar 13, 2020 9:53 pm

I think RCE is one of my strongest townreads at this point.

Homura · Post Post #571 (ISO) » Fri Mar 13, 2020 9:54 pm

All good.

Who's your second topmost scumread?

Auro · Post Post #572 (ISO) » Fri Mar 13, 2020 9:55 pm

I think {Klick, Homura, Suji, Alyssa} would be my lynchpool for today.
I do believe Klick is cheeky enough to try and initiate a townbloc as cultist.

Klick · Post Post #573 (ISO) » Fri Mar 13, 2020 11:13 pm

Auro is kicked from the townbloc
Who wants to replace him?

It's interesting that Korina responds to this twice in the

same

manner at different points (one early game and one during catchup) - I think if Slaxx was cult he'd simply talk about it in the cult PT at least one of the times?
