NY 169: The EPIC XD Mafia Game of Greatness (Game Over)

[MC Maraca]

Hey thor why don't you talk about what you loved about my opening?

Dammit.

[DOMO]

@Sakura - sheep me and vote your gut town read anyway.

Yes cass, she's sheeping your "interesting thought" here.

[Sakura Hana]

Here's the part where I drop a "town tell". Who forgets a game in which they rolled scum?

True enough if i was scum, the scum QT would remind me at least of the existance of this game, since i had no way to remember this game without looking at old PMs because i forgot to bookmark it, i easily slipped into a prod, and then had to read the whole thread.

[KoreanBBQ]

@DOMO - also, you are slowing and examinging a fearsome wagon of...four voters! GAH! Hatred!

Seven, actually. Having been accustomed to 7 votes d1 lynch, I thought I got quicklynched for a second so I checked the votes.

Actually yeah, that was bigger than I thought, I am pleased.

I'm not though, because I think I'm actually quite satisfied with my play right now despite the slow starting.

[KoreanBBQ]

And I've never felt that in any of my games before.

[Casso the King of Seals]

Hey thor why don't you talk about what you loved about my opening?

I never said I loved your opening, I said I liked it.
I liked that you came in and attacked and prodded multiple players at a stage of the game people were being lazy and slow in getting things moving.
I also said I liked that Falcon attacked you for it, so don't start sending me any candy hearts anytime soon.

Why would you think this? I might not be right, but I'm getting reads from my interactions with people. My reads are developing all the time and as such I feel like I'm doing the opposite of fail. That's not to say my reads are right, I'm saying I'm happy with my progress. If you're not, tough luck.

I never suggested your reads were good/bad/indifferent so don't get bent out of shape for something I didn't say.
I *did* suggest it was uncool to derail as soon as it appeared some actual momentum shift and vote movement, because looking at that vote count this game desperately needs a serious wagon and a serious counter about twenty posts ago.

I'm not though, because I think I'm actually quite satisfied with my play right now despite the slow starting.

You have barely managed to present reads on a thirty page game while being snarky at others having the same issue. I can't imagine it should surprise you that people have issues with that.

[DOMO]

I *did* suggest it was uncool to derail

My attack was weak, I realised this, of course I bail. And it's natural for me to then look at those who piled on to a wagon that I helped develop. I made my point about DOMO/rev and there was a flurry of three votes. It's my belief that if korean is town, there's a good chance of scum being amonst those who piled on. Would you disagree with that?

[DOMO]

Also, is this thor or nacho?

[KoreanBBQ]

No, I didn't give out full read lists.
But time to time I've presented my townreads.

I'm actually impressed that I managed to get myself into the game from nearly-desynced status.

[F-16_Fighting_Falcon]

@ Sakura, I accused Generic because his agreeable tone reminded me of a recent game we completed together where he was scum. I also felt that it was different from a push he made in a game where he was town. It was specific to him.

What of Thor's post did you find townish?

[Casso the King of Seals]

@DOMO - I agree if he's town that there are scum on that wagon in general.

I disagree that, if you really wanted a wagon to analyze, you should have removed yourself so quickly. You should have sat there and seen who *else* got on and for what reasons, and also which people from the RVS stage of the wagon chose to stay and which fled, and also could have seen who, if anyone, stepped up to defend him and/or start a counter.

Instead you want to examine a flash that wasn't even done flashing.

To my mind it's like reading half of a book and then wanting to discuss the ending. It doesn't really make sense to me nor do I think intelligent discussion can be had at that stage.

And this is Nacho.

[KoreanBBQ]

O wait. I finally understood what seal was saying.
Well first of all I don't remember being snarky (except for that one post towards pie, which is meant to be funny, actually. :<)
Second of all, asking for read explanation is part of my way to read people.

[Casso the King of Seals]

You didn't ask for a read explanation.
You chided them for leaving someone as null and said it was unhelpful.

[F-16_Fighting_Falcon]

Nacho, do you have strong reads yet? If so, who?

[KoreanBBQ]

You didn't ask for a read explanation.
You chided them for leaving someone as null and said it was unhelpful.

And there was the "aka" part with the parenthesis, which was me asking why he had you as null.

[Casso the King of Seals]

[sarcasm]And this is Nacho.[/sarcasm]

Allow me to clarify something for you guys.

I sorta thought that I'd mocked him for about three straight posts and then kept going on about the same stuff for further posts would have sorta clarified that he hadn't magically shown up and taken over.

[geists]

And this is Nacho.

Hello Thor.

[Casso the King of Seals]

You didn't ask for a read explanation.
You chided them for leaving someone as null and said it was unhelpful.

And there was the "aka" part with the parenthesis, which was me asking why he had you as null.

Why does anyone ever have anyone as 'null'?
That's a joke question.

[Casso the King of Seals]

And this is Nacho.

Hello Thor.

I know, right?

[geists]

Nacho, do you have strong reads yet? If so, who?

You have got to be kidding me.

[geists]

DOMO,

Welcome to my townbloc.

[F-16_Fighting_Falcon]

I didn't think I would fall for it because I can recognize Nacho's posts but oh, well. I'll blame it on stress because I am studying for a midterm tomorrow and I keep checking this thread when I really shouldn't.

[Casso the King of Seals]

Idgi

Pick a player in this game you have a null read on and describe why you have a null read on them.

Then pick a second null read and do the same.

Then tell me the difference between the two cases.

[Casso the King of Seals]

Also, before I leave, true story, I have debated doing this as my initial post in a game;

[sarcasm]

When people eventually ask me about it I'll tell them they need to wait till endgame for me to close the tag.
