I don’t actually have chomps cleared. I think chomps would open that way regardless of his alignment, is the main problem. He could be town but I don’t want to make the mistake of clearing him and then going about players like Pandora/Marluna/Whoever else can be considered a shrug vote in the future and claim they are mafia due to me town reading people like him. I’m trying to avoid that this game. Like I did town read the fact that he wanted the hood person to reveal themselves, but I’m not going to clear them for it. But yeah, if I were to read chomps as town, it would be mostly mechanical based

Go ahead and try to explain your best. Who cares whether you explain it well. If you want to show yourself as town the best thing to do is to try to show people what you are seeing.

It is possible for wolves to intentionally dumbtell with regards to mechanics to make themselves look good. It’s also possible for even entire wolfteams to make major mechanical mistakes (a game from my homesite comes to mind where the wolves almost immediately slipped by announcing a blue seering when the town seer could only seer green or red, and despite this obvious mechanical mistake both wolves agreed to it and thought it was a brilliant plan without realizing the error). Still, this mostly comes down to meta for how good these players are with mechanics, which isn’t something I’d be very helpful in providing

question: is there anything in particular you’re looking for? (don’t answer this if it’d be -EV for town)
Not really. I’m just a poor blind kitten with rose tinted glasses and I don’t know what would grant me the power to see their alignment. If you haven’t noticed, I’m sort of just saying stuff to try to progress the game and to provide more readable content.

i think in general being disinterested in mech is NAI
I think one of the key things about reading me and my thoughts is that I’ve got like three other guys up here. And we all want to play mafia. And we all pretend to be pandora, mostly. My thoughts literally aren’t always accessable to me, and as long as inconsistency is (rightfully, mostly) treated as a wolftell I will probably keep my thoughts closer to my chest because what looks like weird progression is sometimes, like, a subjectively different person having different opinions
To make a serious readlist, I (Dora Prime) TR you, zone, Leafia now (I took a peak at her below posts) and Skrimiche (that was a good line of questioning)
I don’t have toooo many wolfreads rn but brad is as good as any for now. VOTE: bradland

if zone flipped town rn, what would your retroactive thoughts on that observation be? same question but for zone flipping scum instead.
Who are you referring to in this quotation? Whoever it is it doesn’t seem like there have been a lot of serious votes so far besides
[quote=“Leafia, post:269, topic:12809”]
I think it could be performative. LAMIST (Look At Me I’m So Tunneling)
but the rest of zone’s posting is good so whatever
chomps is an incredibly consistent player. this is an amazing skill and personally extremely awesome but it does make reading them hard
agreed

Is there a reason for your vote there? I noticed in your previous post you had four townleans but no wolfleans
I’m not really sure. Zone hasn’t flipped town so I don’t really know what I would be thinking. I can’t really force myself to make thoughts like that and also a lot of the information from flips come from the gameplay that precedes those flips, there’s been very little gameplay so far.
i see i see, i understand the reasoning, ty. for what it’s worth, im also hesitant to clear people based off their (lack of) mech knowledge for the same reasons oricorio mentioned (e.g. scum intentionally acting dumb for townpoints)
oh you’re totally fine, i wasnt expecting you to have a firm answer for that. i was just bein a lil nosy :3

Give us a GTH at least, if you want to see gameplay you shouldn’t be hedging

Again, there is no read to be had there currently, as this sort of read cannot exist without both the game having advanced past 6 hours from d1 and there is no information from the execution.

A hypothetical flip would be information. I’ve had to solve games with far less than what we have here
with far less than 300 mildly fluffy posts? lol

That’s more posts already than like half of NSM’s games lol
on what timescale? 300 posts in a turbo is way more than in a 48/24
