Open 796: Haunted Village Game Over

[Infinity 324]

Nice. I think ur town. Pointing out zofelfs reasons are NAI is good. This quick convo has me pretty convinced you are town. This reasoning makes me think of you in On this Day.

Why is this towny? It doesn't weaken the case on you much to say just xofelf's reasons are NAI

[Noraa]

BM keeps pushing a Taylor/Noraa/Zofelf solve. The problem is that since he's so terribly convinced, he should be happy with a Noraa lim today. But he keeps pushing Taylor. It seems like BM just SRs Taylor and threw me and zofelf in for ???? reasons. There was zero progression. It was just everyone except Taylor is town and then boom Noraa and zofelf are too now.

[MURDERCAT]

It was just everyone except Taylor is town

I mean I really don't agree with that based on my read of the iso

[Tayl0r Swift]

and id contest that BM has a decent progression on me. he came into the game scumreading me before my first post and hasnt let up since.

[Infinity 324]

I did some reading into nora's meta, her tone is so much lighter and much more solvy than this.

[MURDERCAT]

Can I just sheep this instead of reading it myself

[Tayl0r Swift]

Can I just sheep this instead of reading it myself

yes

[Tayl0r Swift]

but only if youre town

[Infinity 324]

Sure, didn't you play a game with town!nora?

[MURDERCAT]

Yeah here's how I read Noraa, ignore all the obviously scummy stuff that is somehow still possible from town Noraa -> town read

So I need to read her scum game again

[Infinity 324]

Isis, I'd be interested by your thoughts on nora.

[Infinity 324]

Oh oops you gave them recently. Nvm

[Infinity 324]

ISO'd plus, he's like null leaning town for me. Gut says lazy scum would be more obvious, and 851 and 868 read town to me. I also agree with whoever said that 1104 probably is a town mindset, scum just posts PR spec in the pt I think.

Plus, why do you read taylor as town?

[Gamma Emerald]

Welp.
Me and my hydra partner had a bit of a falling-out so I will be playing from this account from now on.

[Battle Mage]

Why are you so sure it won't?

i mean it could if the town PRs fuck up and are dumb. but they just have to feign ignorance and not be like "well im the cop so in all the scenarios i consider, therell be a cop"... like if it outs town PRs then itll out scum too, who are also TMI. itll take 2 seconds to go through and look at the possible options for town with 8 points, and then to look at which ones dont make sense given the scum roles.

I really don't think Tayl0r is this bold as scum? I know BM is sure, but like, can you actually imagine typing this out and pressing submit as scum?

that's exactly what she did as scum in her only completed scumgame.

it's a major reason why i am sure she is scum here, because she IS that bold as scum.

[Battle Mage]

having skimmed the last 2 pages, im feeling happier about about elimming Noraa today.

[Gamma Emerald]

Gamma can you elaborate your thoughts on nora a little more? You said you feel conflicted, what are the posts/things nora has done which are conflicting you?

I’ll probably work on this tomorrow, remind me in like 18 hours if I haven’t by then.

[Gamma Emerald]

I literally said they were town.

I pointed out something I didn't like. Is that a problem?

Hrrrm I think this posting make Noraa town but I’m also concerned for her an a level that has no impact on my read on her.

[Gamma Emerald]

Infinity, why do you feel like MURDERCAT's "style" being close to yours proves a point that he's town? Like, usually when someone's playstyle is closer to mine, I have the opposite reaction, I get paranoid that I might townread them for something that's going to be part of how they play both alignments when they might really be scum. I spent a long time townreading scum in Nightless Vanilla because of this, also with a player I was meeting for the first time.

Honestly if you’re townreading someone for something you have seen in yourself that you think comes from both alignments, that says 1 of 2 things. Either the similarities you saw were an illusion, or you lack a measure of self-awareness regarding your own towniness or scumminess.

[Gamma Emerald]

I think based on how quick this wagon emerged out of very little, I think egotisi is slightly more likely to be town. no intent from me, i would actually prefer a noraa elim over egotisi i think.

although clearly TAYLOR IS SCUM.

Do you not understand compromise? I don’t remember who mentioned this before, but whoever said you being for a Noraa elim while not really making strides to work with those also favoring it in favor of blindly shouting that Taylor is scum constantly has a point. And if Noraa flips scum I think you have significant partner equity with her at this point for this streak of behavior.

[Battle Mage]

a slightly more tinfoil solve, based on more traditional tells, would be:

Murdercat - Jewel Barons - Taylor/Noraa

im voting for noraa dude

[Gamma Emerald]

VOTE: noraa

it seems like a choice between noraa and egotisi now, given time. I'm settling with Noraa because she was adamant about not voting Taylor, and she also revealed a no-bussing mentality. If Noraa was town, she should have ultimately voted Taylor here I think.

Okay this at least is a better look as you did this before anyone called you out expressly for it.

Give me a chance to get there mate. You ever played with mastina?
