- Thread starter Da Letter El
- Start date
hi actively uninterested in caff I'm OM Room
hm
hmmmm
hmmmmmmm
my pmeta sign is swingin around rn confused
this should still be town but
hmmmmmmm
it's a dad joke my dude
yes
scum lines up with rad in this
Ok, not gonna say i've been busy or anything, beyond watching over the Colts game earlier (get rekt Dallas, Playoff bound ezpz) but im here now, and will be until I fall asleep! Anywho...
Nuxl: Not a particular fan of the logic found in #334, not wrt the blurb about my entries because meh take of that post what you will, but most wrt viper. Even though i was confused by the early SRs on viper the logic for this TR seems kinda wonky. Firstly: viper panicked on some level in probably every day phase i have ever seen the dude play, nai. Two of those examplesdid feature viper. And half of those that did flipped him scum. The read is accurate tho even if the premise is meh. /me shrugs Nuxl given viper himself is 50/50 in your experience with that same setup does that affect your read at all? More importantly why go so far out to justify a d1 TR?
Duskfall98: Initial thoughts: Opened with what read to me like a genuine attempt to bring something new to the table for discussion (wrt the whole sheep FH thing on like page 9) and regardless of the validity of the actual read, the intent behind it felt pure enough to me.
Current thoughts: Thanks for that whole interaction with texas, that really felt TvT, people SRing dusk go reread that interaction and come walk me through things. Whydon and whoever else was poking at the slot still (idr and its way too late at night atm but i s2g there were others lol)
rssp1: Poor rssp probably got roped into playing this game by hal like me. My condolences. Nothing particularly against this slot, solid tone and nothing screams scum at me, but at the same time im failing to comprehend the semi-universalish townread people have on rssp. Someone should walk me through it.
apricity: Your probably town, you are hal doing hal things. The obligatory aggressiveness, the lack of reads justification, abrasive..... this is what I'd say if you weren't hal and I didnt get torched for TRing you for the exact same reasons last NOC i playyed here. I wanna read this town, but between my history reading this slot and their habitual lack of justification of reads :dankpuff:
asek:Asek reads town (cough #501 cough), and probably is town. Not entirely behind his AAAACTUAL reads but I can see where he is coming from and comprehend his thought process. (IE comparing FH's current play to his play in Mythology). Asek ask me question
omroom: Outside of real time have we ever played a NOC where you were scum together? Can't help you too much on your NOC meta tbh OM >_>
That aside wasnt the biggest fan of him calling drooks on lurking then instantly townreading him on his entry on presumably meta basis (stating that this was "town drookez" too lazy to find post atm), basically SRing drooks when as per meta, no SR shouldve been had. Basically OM should be fully aware of the NAIness of the lurking drookez. And if he ISNT aware of drookez frequently lurking (as both alignments, hell i was in a hydra with the dude and we BOTH lurked d1, it was GREAT #Dr.ProctorDidNothingWrong)and asserts a read basing it on knowing drook's town meta its kinda ?_?. @omroom talk me through what iyo constitutes a town drookez, and what about that entry post screamed town to you.
viper: Tonally comes off as really natural for viper (posts like 599), we are seeing the game the same way for the most part (Dusk v Texas as TVT, early dusk TR upon entry) which is always a +. Btw hit me with that hal read whenever you pop up, hal vs viper shinanigans are fun stuff :vampysmug:
texas: Texas going about his day, mostly reading this town on the basis his interactions with dusk from earlier look good. Iirc it was mentioned (not ITT, in another game somewhere.... psure animal?) that in general texas is obvscum when they roll it, so more than happy to give em a pass for now.
fh: This slot exists ig, former seems to be in LOW EFFORT MODE:TM: (blah blah hipocricy yall can deal), and thats really about it if im being honest. He's commented as the game progressed but ?_?. The meta SRs on him afaict are applicable to either faction so eh on that?I'd probably have thrown him down with the peeps im not listing off if his name wasnt such a point of contention.
Caffeine: A considerable amount of meming (NAI) the only real issue i take with the slot is I really can't get into his head. Not generating much content and he reads duskfall and viper, neither read Im really a fan of. Caffeine, break down the texas/dusk interactions and why do they incriminate dusk, since you said thats the baseline of your read there? Leaning scum for now
whydon: Spent the first half of the day obsessed with inferno which isnt a scummy inherently, just meh. Not a fan but i'll deal. Proceeds to take issue with dusk for sheeping? (examples btw whenever whydon i mustve missed em when i read of dusk) but openly sheeps his FH read (post 481). When you read this whydon respond to the question above in my duskfall read. ~
Any nerd not listed here hasnt done enough to make me care about analyzing their stuff (yup that includes me fite me)
ok im tired, i may/may not sleep but i'll be back before deadline

how should I know how you are supposed to react?
change of plan. we form the former hope / 3p1k wagons unless ive missed something drastic by not reading the last 10 pages (which i shall do shortly). these 2 will towntell by eod if they are of the alignment. caffeineboost can wait for later considering there seems to be a lack of support for whatever reason.
It is VERY important we have our major competing wagons sorted before EOD - read the rules - ties result in nl - we want to sort our lynches out ahead of time to ensure that no tying bullshit happens and preferably sort a system out in which we rule out vote switching a few minutes before deadline or something of the sort - an unorganised cfd with this mechanic can be disasterous

Who would you wagon if I thought it was town!FH?
oddishs posts so far are unimpressive and feel easy to fabricate i get no strong town sense from them and they felt a lot more engaged in the previos game
energys posts so far have been refusing to interact with thread and pretty much entirely filler - id expect something more than what theyve posted so far if theyre town right now they have a fair bit of scum equity for me
drookez has done that previously and been town
nuxl - theyve posted enough you should remember them. unsure how you get town leans on oddish and energy but nothing on nuxl from the gamestate at that point
i dont really have time to read your iso atm but may do it tomorrow
