  1. Oh, it was hidden in the middle of a wallpost. That makes sense. EDIT: *posts two incorrect votecounts* And we do a little misinformation
  2. Sorry I meant that as a lighthearted comment, not like, instigating anything. It's probably obvious I've been trying to give you more space in recent games. JFDkljfhsadkjfad
  3. I think if Szeth is evil it's because Wizard is as well. no he isn't, But if he was would you call him an Elim? Fixed VC, hopefully. >>> The Wandering Wizard (3): Archer, Xinoehp, Elkanah >>> The Bookwyrm (3): JNV, The Wandering Wizard, Matrim's Dice > Matrim's Dice (2): Shining Silhouette, InfiniteInsanity > Alvron (2): Illwei, Kasimir The Unknown Novel (1): _Stick_ Xinoehp (1): Araris Valerian Szeth (1): The Unknown Novel
  4. Can you deal with Normal!Illwei? >>> The Wandering Wizard (3): Archer, Xinoehp, Elkanah > Matrim's Dice (2): Shining Silhouette, InfiniteInsanity > The Unknown Novel (2): _Stick_, TUN > Alvron (2): Illwei, Kasimir Xinoehp (1): Araris Valerian
  5. what on earth does that mean, and I'm the one who asked for it lol. And as for Cash, I assumed that they had played variants of mafia/werewolf but not forum mafia. They talked about not knowing what to do without actions which implies variants like ToS or Sc2 mod or amogus or whatnot. Cash if you're reading this then Forum mafia relies a lot less on actions than other variants and a lot more on voting patterns and night kills. As for this turtle/shining interaction, Turtle looks villagery and Shining does not. Shining is coming across as an elim who doens't know how to interact and at the very least wants to try and drag turtle down with him.
  6. It's because the claim was irrelevant. @Turtle where's your head at right now? if you're having trouble then just give me a top 3 and bottom 3. Also if everyone had their pronouns in their sig it could make life so much easier :pensive:
  7. Unfortunately, one's alignment /does/ actually impact how they play the game, regardless of their intentions or not. One's role also impacts how they play the game, as does any other information they know for any reason. your reaction to elk is still there though, unexplained. Alvron
  8. Regardless of turtles status (as LHF, yes), but his first action in thread was to shut down what I considered to be a mostly meaningless discussion on turtle's habits as an Elim. His other posts aren't great, and I don't know what he thinks gives off Quinn v. Illwei threadbrawl vibes, but I liked his opening so I'm sticking by my village read for now. I don't understand your line of thought here, as I was saying you and Elk are potentially teamed. Nothing Alv has posted has given any indication that he's village, and that's enough for an Elim- lean for me considering his other games. He seems to be a little over the top today, as if he knows he's chaotic and therefore plays up the chaotic-ness trying to replicate his village attitude.
  9. I'm going to call Shining V for now, at least. The way she approached thread wrt the PMs comes off as comfortable which is good. Probably the least reason to townread and will change if we don't see more substenance other than mild meta questions. Araris is much higher than that in terms of my village reads. Again, for comfortability, but moreso than shining because Araris has shown more desire to question and solve along game related pathways instead of taking a partial outsider stance like shining. Speaking of votes on mat being wierd, Mat's vote on insanity was strange. In that interaction book votes insanity, insanity doesn't show up, and then book takes the vote off with a strange post. Mat then votes insanity, where I believe the natural progression is to vote Book. Elkanah turning away from the Alv focus is a good look, since I was ready to talk about how he stayed there and even made a tie, but in a way that allowed him to ignore the game. But luckily I don't have to mention that anymore. One thing is that his vote on Alv, vote /off/ Alv, and then vote to tie with comment that Alv should show up implies a deeper connection between him and alv, one option of which being that they are teamed. Besides that though, his instant vote switch from bookwyrm to wizard is a potential good look as well as what was mentioned above. Leaning stick Elim right now, simply because she checked in at SoD, but waited three hours to place a vote and when she did it was still on someone who had not entered thread yet. If you wait to post a vote at the start of the cycle the implication is that you are waiting to see who talks. To then come back to thread and place a vote on TUN when Archer, Mat, Chantara, Turtle, Xino, Kas, and Shining had all talked implies some level of village read on them (if a villager). - Her reasoning was that she hadn't seen TUN talk yet, but saw him lurking (implying that lurking is bad, regardless of what words she used) yet to have seen that she had to have been lurking herself. Insanity and Bookwyrm- Bookwyrm is someone who I also think can be easily aligned with Alv, mostly for their reaction to Araris' vote on Alv (which spews Araris and Bookwyrm not e/e. Their insistence on D1 reads being impossible to grab on to gives room for them to explain being wrong, which as a new player they shouldn't have to worry about (generally I believe no one should have to worry about being wrong but that's for another time). I don't think Insanity and bookwyrm have to be teamed. I think if only one of them is an elim it's possible for it to be insanity, but my main hold up in general around both of their slots is insanity saying "Oh that's what your title means" but it really comes down to if voting back was instinctual for insanity or not, and I can't see inside their mind. I don't quite have a read on turtle yet, but I'm not concerned about that, as I've found even on MU their play stays pretty much the same. This is relevant because if turtle is village then Archer's opener means he's more likely village. He comes in and immediately discourages the talk about turtle, at the most putting turtle in village-lean but really just quelling the suspicion (or attempting.) I do disagree with his thoughts on the distribution though: 5/20 is a fine number and I'm fine that we ended there. I do want to note that as someone else said- the longer this game goes, on the more likely that more blades fall to the Elims. The relocation aspect of the shaman isn't neccessarily village sided, assuming the average person is no better than rand at finding the elims. Not only that, but I assume with the added aspect of people wanting the honorblades, I wouldn't be suprised if the shaman simply took peoples blades to try and find one they wanted. So yes, the shaman has the ability to take the blades away from the elims, but in reality the chances of them getting it right isn't as likely as the ideal scenario, ofc. That's pretty much all my thoughts so far, I've read everything too many times over at this point.
  10. @kas I'm reserving judgement on Mat for the most part, other than - A lot of what he has said matches up with my gut instincts right now (implying theoretical villagery pov) - he feels more confrontational and aggressive than he needs to be (implying theoretical villagery comfort and lack of care for making enemies in thread) But also that those reads/actions mat has thrown out, despite being my first instinct for some of them as well, are partly opportunistic- especially the grouping of Insanity and Bookwyrm, when i think regardless of alignment, they're friends obviously outside of this, and therefore no one should look into their interactions that much. I don't know if your claim or reactivity is that AI. We recently got off a LG with him as an elim, and he wasn't exclusively reactive there. your view of him being reactive could be a villager relaxing and playing softer because they had a hard elim game before it. Then again mat thinks he been proactive so that's pretty irrelevant. Regardless, Mat can join turtle in the pile of people I'm not worrried about, since if they are town they will make it obvious before too long. Before I get comments, being aggressive/confrontational isn't incompatible with being reactive.
  11. angelica aussie wannabe don't fall for that old wives tale smh Anyways has the D1 meta already changed that our first posts aren't about distribution and whatnot? smhsmh Also @shining player meta/playstyle change can be a tool to use, but most of the time people don't know how to accurately use the tool, and therefore should atay away from it.
  12. Just a few things I'm wanting imput on. #3 is an old game Fura made a bit ago that I've updated a little. none of them are fully finished. Shorter cycle game with postcount restrictions. Click Shorter cycle game without a majority or plurality elimination. Click LG format, Roshar setting, Role Madness, Flipless. Click
