hey everyone, who's town?
(skitter!!!! <3)

[the worst]

is inutile shiki?

[the worst]

I'm gonna take my own life in my hands and boldly posit that Infinity is town.

[the worst]

I read your games as shiki and Angela and hari and a couple of other alts which I think are you but I'm not 100% sure off the top of my head

Is this the first time we've actually played together? Woah.

pedit: Heya Pavowski.

mystery box gnine was, i believe

aha, thanks. good to see you again!

[the worst]

I would be very hurt if I was deceived. Who here is town and can promise?

I promise.

That's not very convincing to me

i warmed to this more than 46

[the worst]

ok i'm glad someone else called skitter town first so i can be like "i kinda agree and it terrifies me"

where is the feeling of risk coming from

i like to live dangerously

[the worst]

more eloquently, something about having confident early townreads in this setup just feels inherently more dangerous than usual

[the worst]

ok i'm glad someone else called skitter town first so i can be like "i kinda agree and it terrifies me"

terrifies you cuz it's me or just generically cuz it's a townread in this setup?

probably about 62% / 38%

Math.exe has stopped responding.
Please explain numbers

i went to type 60/40 then changed my mind

hmmmm ok

i don't think anybody should be townreading me yet tbh

~

also i think meg is p obviously town

intellectually i agree!

i do not have a read on meg yet.

[the worst]

ahaha

[the worst]

No I mean what do the numbers mean? Your feel on skitter being town? The split of reasons why you are worried about trusting skitter? Its a little ambiguous.

I'm gonna sleep so don't expect to hear from me for a while.

ah sorry I assumed the context made it clearer than it was.

I think I'm mostly nervous townreading skitter early because I have a very hard time accurately reading skitter early normally and her scumgame is very far above average. but it's not a big mostly. about 60% of the source of my concern. there's also just a big part of me that doesn't like early townreads in trust fall.

[the worst]

also i think theres a chance tw is scum cuz it would be karmic justice for him to get his revenge on me cuz the last time we played he trusted me and i was scum :3

this... makes me think you've forgotten that entire game :p

[the worst]

pooky. dude. my opinion of you in hindsight is so much higher than my opinion of you in practice.

[the worst]

i am beginning to wonder.

[the worst]

oh no. sleep well tris.

gg, congrats mafia!

pooky, please stay out of my games - i'll return the courtesy

[the worst]

It's a factor of this setup. To get mechanical information, you have to take the chance on someone being scum. We might have benefited from taking longer to make Infinity nervous (or just slow rolling the conftowns so that we could parse what that meant etc.), but it's overall not a bad strategy.

Trusting Enchant was just legitimately a good move.

[the worst]

They're kinda not wrong, Faker. Personality clashes are what they are though. You're totally within your rights to avoid them.

Even in a world where trusting 3 different people is a valid strategy, doing it within an hour of replace in was blatantly griefing.

It's definitely not my style (you might have noticed, I'm kind of slow paced these days ), but definitely falls in the realm of personality and playstyle differences.

It's defensible, but I also think it's totally fair if you'd rather not expose yourself to it.

[the worst]

thankyou for moderating

Thanks tris!

agreed - thank you tris! Sorry about your untimely nap

[the worst]

I feel you. There's two factors to it, I think.
firstly: in an ideal world, this

could

have played out differently. if we had more time, maybe possibly perhaps we

might

not have gotten absolutely steamrolled.
secondly: we got absolutely steamrolled.

credit to Inf and Meg, their approaches to the game were strong and we weren't sharp enough to anticipate that they were scum approaches. just well played.
learning from losses is really healthy though. you're a cool player, and it's neat that you're learning. i learned a bit even just from my first-impression reads of people while i was in the game.

pedit: +1 skitter as always

[the worst]

While I have never, and do not intend, to take it out on anything physical, this is the most frustrated I have been with a game in year and the feeling is what I imagine runs through the mind of people that break a hand punching a wall.

It's a game, man. Take a breath and take a step back, if you're not having fun what's the point?

You'll do better in the next one. You weren't the only one fooled!

[the worst]

Faker & DkKoba, it'd be cool if you could both please take a step back. Criticism for playstyles is totally legit, asking folks to avoid you in future games is fine. I think you're both at an impasse and posting more probably won't benefit anyone.

pedit: it's a really, really high agency setup. if this was like, an RP system I'd want a really detailed session 0. You kinda want players who /know/ that the setup is brutal. A set of random players will probably cause friction more often than usual.

[the worst]

Wait what?

Good post!
