Yeah, I'm definitely fine with it LMAO.In post 93, Anastasia wrote:

I think? The issue Absinthe presented was more like a theoretical where I /don't/ do that and then other people pull the trigger and end up the same way and we all sit there twiddling our thumbs in a lukewarm duel to be just a little townier.-

So, the thing is with my response to Anastasia is that there's basically a certain ~type~ of personality that I tend to mesh easily and well with whether or not I know them, and I trust that to a degree they're fine with me displaying a sort of friendly warmth/playfulness and will reciprocate in kind or at the very least not find it weird, and given that Ana did more than that I was fine going along with it. It's harder to have that sort of connection with like, absinthe/unwnd this game (even if I know the latter) just because of who they are as people. Which isn't a bad thing by any means because I like both of them! But it's just easier for me to get comfortable with someone like Ana at least more openly.
As for my actual read on her, it's townread right now. It's not so much for content but like... in my head, there's two paths, and the one where she's town currently involves her like... being able to read these things from me as a person and then take the /further/ step from that where she assume that "If I buddy up to Briar, she will be less willing to kill me, because Briar doesn't like killing her friends" (which is an unfortunate flaw of my game), and then goes to hype me up/etc. Which is a really big fucking stretch (UNLESS she is an alt, who has played with me and then read me as my main which is another big stretch I have to make to get to her being scum IMO) compared to her just being town and she's vibing with me right now, so that's that.
Maybe I'm being too kind because I do like her posts from a strictly non-game perspective and don't want her to be scum but regardless of that I see town. Even her opening posts (which I think absinthe/unwnd?) said pinged them read as... awkward more than scummy. SO, yeah.-

The latter really, I just like you as a player and we've only ever had positive/fun times together that I can recall, so it was fun to post those sort of things jokingly at you.

If what you're implying in the bold is true then why was your first gut reaction to kiss up to me? Was your intent to get a reaction out of me and turn it into a read, or was it similar to Ana in some regard where you saw someone familiar and felt like starting there?-

I should explain more: I've seen you rather recently not like the like, extent a social aspect has taken root of a game, so I came into it knowing that you wouldn't most likely post back in the same vein as I was but it wasn't a big deal to me that you wouldn't, if that makes sense?In post 139, Briar wrote:

And I know I said I would try to tone it down some but this is sort of just my personality and the lens I view this game through, I guess you could say character but that's not quite right, and trying not to be this sort of person just ends up hamstringing my ability to play. Which uh, sucks if people think it's detrimental but meh, what can I do.-

Oh so you've like, played a lot. Huh.In post 143, Lukewarm wrote:
I have completed 2 games on this site (and I am in another).In post 138, Briar wrote:Hey Luke, what's your experience with mafia?
Before that, I played several games in this mafia discord group that was full of people I knew IRL
And before that, I played a lot of One Night Ultimate Werewolf. Like I would guess at least 100 games, if not more.
But that means most of my experience is with playing with people that I know IRL, and people that I know well. So I felt like I was really good at reading people in those games, but so far on here...
If you're this unconfident I think I want to keep you out of the Gate-group, yeah. If you're town you'd most likely get slapped on the IC role and would be a lot of pressure, and if you're scum I feel like you'd be nervous enough where... it'd be good to be in the Wall group or something where it's just traditional mafia and the two town have to find each other to pick you out as the odd one.
I guess that you could be in any group as scum and it'd just shave off a person that we have to worry about, but really if you're town I think I'd rather have someone more experienced with the players (sorry if I'm like, assuming too little of your play right now) be there to guide us.
What do you think so far like, in general, of the people/what's been said? Do you have a preference between the other two, if you're doubting going to the Gate?-

I wouldn't describe you as a prick in any of those games, because if that were the case I wouldn't be as friendly with you probably for fear of exacerbating any toxicity in this game. You're a very fun player to be around, Unwnd!!In post 147, unwnd wrote:Some recent games I have indeed been a bit of a prick. It wasn't intentional on my part but I get really tilted by some things. One of them is how I want the game to played, which usually contrasts with how it's played. My understanding of You/Ana right now is that you're social players and feed off the energy of the room, while not getting caught up in details. I think that behavior is the most easily faked and something that is harder to read because of it.
That being said, I do get why it can be a headache to deal with this which uh, I've been thinking about a lot recently and have teetered back and forth between how I should act versus what is fun so maybe in the near future or even this game I'll try to be a bit more "logical" while still having my fun so that it's a bit easier for everyone else to parse. It's just harder for me at times to verbalize what's basically a gutread off of how someone feels or rather, the way they're sounding portraying that, when it's rooted in how people are getting along with each other a bit beyond just hard solving.
So yeah!-

Ohh, the classic self-deprecation. I get that.In post 159, Lukewarm wrote: I may have exaggerated my anti-confidence for comedic effect. It is more like, I am becoming aware that my experience, primarily in ONUW, which is played face-to-face with friends and family, does not translate 1 to 1 to playing here.
Also, I have reconsidered, I don't think I should be in the Gate. Before the game started, I was only thinking about them individually, and not thinking about the fact that the IC would be important for the other areas as well.
So I think my preference now would be keep>wall>gate
What makes you want to go to the Keep? I have few guesses but I wanna hear what's on your mind about that one. :>
Also, is it influenced at all by you having a read on me, since I'm at the Keep?-

In general I think he has a dry sort of way in how he posts/presents himself comparatively to some people but I don't actually get the feeling that he's frustrated over what's happening so much as like... trying to get it since it doesn't make a lot of sense to him? That matches up with how I known unwnd as a player and when he's been around situations where people are basing things in social cues/reads versus gamestate, etc.-

Though the caveat is that in recent memory I do remember him sort of flippantly going "meh, I'm not here for this sort of thing/don't like it" as previously mentioned so I don't know if I should be reading more into him trying to understand it all, like he's putting in more work here over it.In post 177, Briar wrote:In general I think he has a dry sort of way in how he posts/presents himself comparatively to some people but I don't actually get the feeling that he's frustrated over what's happening so much as like... trying to get it since it doesn't make a lot of sense to him?

I correctly read the other two players, find the scum, and vote the other town player
Or, alternatively, I could be the one voted for
In the Castle, there is only 1 win condition. I have to correctly identify the scum, if I fail, town loses that minigame.
In the Gate, then I think they will make me the IC (especially after the posts I have made ) So the win condition is the same as the castle, but now I would become an important voice for the other minigames as well. Not sure I want that responsibility.
Spoiler:
I think that I'd be fine with you being in the Keep, honestly it might be best for us if you are IMO? Like, the worst case is that you are scum and I don't think you could keep up with the other two town players, or if you are town but not towny enough you don't seem like... prideful enough to where you have to be the one voted, etc etc. I'm down with that (but you should probably hold off a tiny bit to see if other people agree with this and not follow in my footsteps of insta-voting).-

Why should I care about what other people think in the moment? Like, if people don't think that I'm towny enough there are two other slots that they can assign to other people and vote them instead, and I'll vote whoever I think is town of those two if no one wants me. I'm just hamstringing myself if I'm scum by putting the pressure on myself to compete with them but that isn't the case this game, so /shrug. It's a bit shitty of me to not care if other people agreeIn post 196, catboi wrote:Why do you think that? Why would you not wait to see if other people are okay with it?nowbut they will in time.-

Hit me with the catboi vibes? I found his questioning towards me a bit... questionable, heh. But the way it was tinted in that moment didn't feel like it matched up with the tools that the town has to deal with the groups (aka it seemed like he didn't like it but if he doesn't there are other options and I'm already supporting one he likes).In post 214, Infinity 324 wrote:
I think I've given most of my relevant thoughts so far, although they've been out of sync with the game because I've been posting in between board game turns. I do get some townvibes from lukewarm and some non-townvibes from catboi igIn post 210, Briar wrote:Infinity what's on your mind!!
What's your read on absinthe?
I'm gonna be honest and say that uh, I wanna rain check this one because I feel like I've annoyed absinthe and that sort of thing makes it a little more difficult for me to interact/read someone because that colors my thoughts, and I'd rather read over their slot when I'm not gonna feel a bit bad for making it less enjoyable for them?-

(By the last part it means that I am unsure about Ana because I liked her early-game but those feelings have uh... started fading pretty fast but I don't know if I'm being overly-paranoid because I think she /sounds/ good but the things she saying don't... feel good, in an agenda sense, and trying to make sense of that right now is a lot of work and I don't wanna comb over her posts because she's going to be the key to solving absinthe I think too, for me, through these interactions.)In post 291, Briar wrote:Oh, yikes.
Okay then, let's really nail the Gate group to get the best IC and leave their group for last, I think, to vote in? Have the IC's thoughts as long as possible.

(Oh whatever, I think a big root of my worry right now is that there's uhhh, an insistence from Ana that she did not think absinthe was scum, that she was not against him being the group, she did not think XYZ, but in reality the things she was saying to absinthe through that interaction, and the way that she spoke to unwnd, felt more like the issue was that we shouldn't trust absinthe inherently and even though she was saying what her stances were some of her posting feels like she wants everyone to doubt absinthe even if she says she's not doing it?)In post 293, Briar wrote:

(p-edit: And there's a bit of me that wonders if Ana's bit off a bit much for her to chew if she is scum and is trying to placate absinthe who was not having it if that is the case?? I don't know because there were moments where her frustration (at like, S_S) sounded like a frustrated townie to me rather than scum. That and the Dunnstral thing which like, weak logically, made sense to me in full. If that makes sense, lmao.)-

Thinking a bit, in a perfect world I think my groups right now would look like this:
Gate: Absinthe/Anastasia/Catboi
Wall: Unwnd/Dunnstral/Something_Smart
Keep: Briar/Lukewarm/Infinity
I think Unwnd/Infinity are interchangeable for the last two, but the Gate group would resolve a few of my reads? Like, confirming whether or not absinthe/Ana is T/T or T/S (because if it's S/S What The Fuck) would be important to me, and also it'd be nice if that was the case because I haven't gotten anything really Good from catboi yet and seeing whether or not he was confirmed would be cool. (This is also the assumption that the mafia would make the conversation between the former keep on going to the death? I think? Like there's already some uh, doubts between absinthe/Ana that they've vocalized so duh mafia preys on that.) This is the group with maximum WIFOM fuckery though so I worry that I'd get snowed pretty fast were mafia to divert from this but I'm gonna assume they'd play it sort of straightforward despite me talking about all this stuff out loud.
For the wall group, that's honestly the group where I'm like... could be any alignment, and I wouldn't be too surprised? I lean town on unwnd, actually, I townread unwnd now that I think about it a little bit just from how he's been playing even if I was questioning the 'why' he was trying to be so... diplomatic? I guess? It doesn't feel slimy like he's trying to placate people so much as just... figure shit out, so far. Which is nice. The latter two I have less experience with and in general don't find easy reads, so resolving that is a bit out of my paygrade. I am curious still about S_S's guess on me and why it bothered him, because he didn't say anything about it more and while I appreciate him not outting it for fear it's correct, it's a little... IDK. I guess my expectation was that he'd engage me even if my reply to him was very silly, because if it's something he was worrying about a bit he'd attempt to resolve it somehow.
And the last group, I Am Town, Luke has felt good so far and I do think that like, while he's not new to the site, the format itself is something he's still adjusting to and trying to keep up as mafia while in a group playing the Townie Pageant Game would probably be hell for him. If he's town he feels like he's the safest vote for us to pick and if he's scum he'll probably slip or something and we just vote either myself or Infinity if she's in here with us, and it's easy from there on.
As for order of who we let stay first, I think that (in the little world I am creating here) I'd let Wall > Keep > Gate do their votes? Actually, uh, probably Keep first now that I am thinking about it because if we're all voting for townreads and this is somehow the group that gets messed up and votes mafia, it'd be important to reset assuming we'd placed at that point a decent amount of trust into their reads. The IC should stick around as long as needed to dictate everything obviously, but now that I'm working through it I am very much into the Keep going first unless we all collectively agree one person is /disgustingly/ townie (sidenote: hey I'm the disgustingly townie one lol) and wanna see their reads or something pending a Wall-flip.
My brain is not functioning after typing this. Please enjoy.-

You don't have to be sorry; I had a guess or two and it was more along the lines of like, you didn't like it because you didn't like the implications it made about me playing here, rather than something personal, but all the same don't worry about being rude. <3In post 326, Something_Smart wrote:

I'm thinking it wasn't right though because if it was then you'd probably know why I said it.-

Though, I do want to ask to clarify @S_S: was it a game thing or a more personal/player thing that you were thinking?In post 328, Briar wrote:

I mean, I don't expect everyone to go 9/9 with my same exact reads, but it's the configuration I think gives us the best odds right now of sorting the trickier spots in this game.In post 330, Lukewarm wrote:Hmmm. The fact that you are already locked into the Keep, makes me apprehensive for you to pick the other people in the Keep with you. Because, if you are scum, that means you are picking out the the people you think you can most trick into town reading you.
I personally want to go to the keep as well, but I think that means we should let the rest of the thread pick our third.
Are you apprehensive about me picking you? My assumption would be that if you're town that wouldn't be as much of a worry for you -- as a less experienced player (but still one who has experience with mafia) you shouldn't fumble I think? As town to the point where other people don't townread you, and I've already ceded the fact that as it stands I'd be fine voting you if that was the consensus. Also, do you have any read on me independent of me picking these things? (I think I prodded at this earlier but I am a little too lazy to go back through your ISO right now to see if you said anything about it.)-

We've never had any sort of unpleasant interaction, rest assured. <3-

Is it non-trivial currently? I mean, we do have one group still that has 3/3 spaces in it and in theory if we blitz the other two groups full with snapshot townreads we'd leave them all in the Gate, which I don't think is the worst group to have at least 1 conftown come out of.
I don't think it's a winning strategy because getting 3/3 sounds far-fetched though and I'd rather have like, 1 scummy person in each group if possible for obvious reasons. Save for the Keep.
Actually I don't know why I'm speculating about this, it's fun but not gonna happen realistically.-

Yeah, it's not reasonable, but it's still fun to imagine somehow.In post 357, absinthe wrote:
6 town finding each other well enough and quickly enough to agree on 3 scummy players, and not have that conversation subverted by scum seems like a stretch.In post 347, Briar wrote:Is it non-trivial currently?

I went back through the thread to see if I could firm up any reads and didn't come away with much I didn't already have. :/
I'm at the state where I don't feel like, strong about any scumreads. Townreads are a bit easier.
