I just don't get why so many people are town reading him. I went through his content and he should be null or downward.

Seeing as how I don't read him well and you're a strong town read for me, i have him as possible scum/null.

My question is does Cory the mafia player actually really dislike AtE as much as he's suggested, or is it something that he legitimately would use?

 

I know this is for AJ but I'll answer this too if you want

 

 

Yes please. I think anyone with Cory meta should.

 

 

FWIW, I don't know if I trust Cory to give a Cory meta.

 

 

jepg is the only player that can read me better than myself.

Seriously, put 13 corys in a game. Village sweep every time, but the thread would be traumatic and unreadable to any outsider.

Anyways, I'm asking because it just seemed strange to me that you would list your peek in green and then reveal it later, and it HAPPENED to be the person that Darthe peeked.  I couldn't help but read it as a possible situation where you had to go check who his death spewed town and then use that person as your own peek.

 

Especially considering she was presumably null WITHOUT the peek factoring in.

I feel like I should incorporate this into my next setup somehow.

I didn't get it so you're ok in my book.

 

 

I might be dating myself with that video.

 

 

I remember that song.  That joke was terrible.

For Cass' eyes only, because everyone has been following the honor system this game:

 

 

My whole take on AtE is that it isn't really a real tell for anything. Unless a player is specifically trying to make you feel bad as a way of emotionally manipulating you, it turns out that most human beings are intuitive and feeling creatures and it can leak out into games. Take EP last game for an example - do you think he was trying GRAND SUBTERFUGE using AtE as a way of getting people on his side? No, he was an upset human being doing upset human being things. Sometimes it is genuine, because people are people.

 

Obviously the issue here at hand is that villagers are probably a tad more likely than rand to get visibly upset in game of lies and liars (not that a wolf can't get upset he's getting lynched, but it's harder to sustain that sort of frustration when you know people are actually right), so it becomes a "villager tell", which long-term means that wolves need to learn how to fake it in order to clear themselves. A lot of this is lumped into the "how to fake tone" discussion.

 

So you need to sort through "emotional play" and figure out A) if the player is genuine and B) if the player is upset because they are a villager. I failed and doing A) and B) for Sooh and feel bad for failing, as I sort of like being right in these games.

 

As for my meta, I do not think I use "AtE" but I also acknowledge I am an emotional player, especially as a villager, because I get emotionally invested in games because I have #INFP problems. So generally if you think I am AtE-ing, it's not an intentional "play" - I am probably just telling people what's on my mind and attempting to be transparent and it turns out when I say what's on my mind the INFP stuff comes out and I sort of wear my heart on my sleeve.

 

As a wolf I can try to emulate it because it's a pretty crucial part of my villager game and my wolf game is about emulating my villager game but it's one of the spots where I am probably a lot less convincing. I would just ignore it, unless you think my attitude is out of place in context with the game-state, and look more for my reads and if I'm making the sort of reads you believe I would make as a villager. Unless you really want to INFP it up and try to read me emotionally, which is honestly a very taxing way to play the game and not something I wish on other people.

I didn't it's there for all to see. If you mean why I was going to hold it that's been discussed.

I see no reason to rush to say it. This isn't a Hammer game and day just started this morning.

 

Well, no, it hadn't.

 

 

 

 

 

I'll reveal my peek closer to end of day.

My mom's in hospital so I'm distracted.

 

Tress was my peek.

 

 

 

 

Verb

Kaylee

Nyn

Tress

Leelou

Dice

Similar to mine

 

Nyn

Tress

Verb

Lee

AJ

Cass (for thé points Nyn made)

Null on Dice

 

Need to sort out:

 

Wombat

Cory

Clov

Updated by putting Tress in blue

 

I could go with Wombat or Clov at this point...neither are town for me

Nyn is making good points about Verb. I don't read him as well so I'll trust these and see what he had to say in response

 

I did think his comment about Sooh and Cass couldn't be wolves together.

 

I just can't get past what you said about her. That and she's responding well I agree

 

 

Yes it had, by AJ D1, i said i agreed with that. Changed my mind when I found out my mom went into the hospital. Sorry I wasn't clear on that.

 

Still, not sure what the big deal is. I said I'd wait, ended up not waiting and gave it.

 

Will you be pushing others for their peeks from last night?

 

I find it odd that your focusing on this. Are you having a hard time with the fact that I was going to hold it? Cuz as I explained above I said D1 why...holding off can be more beneficial to the town. I liked the argument for that.

 

Again that's a read the thread and you get your answer kind of thing. :wink:

Get off the sidelines, bruh.

Legit though Wombat, I think you could be a wolf this game. I would appreciate you trying to assuage that impression.

 

Basically where I'm at with you.  Either you are a wolf or we need to get on the same page I guess.

 

Enlighten me a little, then. What page are you on? Generally I've got the impression that your posts have been fairly low effort. I see potential connections with you and other players I'm wary of atm.

 

 

We can't really argue about Verbal, because if I remember right you have him as your peek. And I'm not sure about AJ at all. Still have to read his content. Wombat is a question mark and so are you. So the argument that from your POV Cass and dice are likely scum from a strictly POE consideration.... is awesome and all.... but it doesn't really work for me. 

 

 

Can you explain the first paragraph? I don't really understand what you mean. Why does Darthe being town mean Tress is town? And why do you think Darthe didn't have cop equity?

 

Darthe was killed after "peeking" Tress.  If she's mafia, she (and her team) decided to shoot somebody they KNEW wasn't the cop - because Cop!Darthe wouldn't have gotten a Tress town peek N0 - over somebody that COULD be the cop.

 

do think Darthe had cop equity.  Tress being mafia would have given him no cop equity.

 

Does that make sense?

 

Fwiw I expected Nyn to be the NK almost every time with how D1 played out. I guess the Darthe kill isn't surprising necessarily considering he was pretty consensus but not expected yet from my POV.

 

 

Extremely high % of finding a wolf(ves) in

 

Wombat

Cory

Clov

Cass

 

imo

 

Need to sort this bunch asap.

 

Batting .500 max here.  More likely .250 imo.  Your D-Backs namesake is raking on my fantasy team btw.  Get on his level or concede?:(

 

1/4 chance statistically is accurate. Which of the four do you think then?

 

Right now I'm having a hard time seeing the game any other way though I can admit that I have been extremely wrong before.

 

Missed the AJ part of this earlier.

 

The bold is why it read as more likely genuine to me. As one NFP person reading another sans paranoia, I simply think Cory the person is more likely to feel 'legitimately depressed' about making a mistake than doing his job well. My question is does Cory the mafia player actually really dislike AtE as much as he's suggested, or is it something that he legitimately would use?

 

What makes you say he would 'probably post something like that as either alignment'?

 

Because I think he would. You have to be careful about investing too much into emotional responses from players like Cory who are emotionally driven. The stuff he was saying earlier about wearing his heart on his sleeve is true, but I think that reflects in either alignment. It's my belief that Cory dislikes playing as a wolf. I don't think he'd disagree. That dislike stems into his game as a wolf and with it carries a certain undertone of hostility imo. That was the impression I got when seeing how he was handling a few players like Clov/Verb early on and then later with you towards EOD.

 

As far as him disliking AtE, I would say that's true.

This post wasn't there when i posted my last one... phone hasn't updated sorry.

 

Anyway to put her in blue before revealing would've been obvious. I had said i liked her reads so nice try there.

 

As far as Darthe having her as a town peek D1, he wasn't the only one so nice try on that theory.

Name a time that I've been a wolf and you've been a villager.

AJ if you had the balls to come @ me like that on Day 1 as a wolf I am going to be very impressed, won't even be mad

 

If you thought you could ride on it forever you're going to find yourself to be sadly mistaken  :laugh:

Mafia Mafia on VS.

 

The Hitchhiker game that ran a while back here - although you were a SK so that one is a bit skewed.

 

I also read a bit of the BT game where it was you/Seph/Yates/Turin.

 

I think towards the end there you were really standing out.

Posted

If you honestly don't think I'm working hard enough AJ, I don;t know what to tell you.  I'm feel like I'm putting in a lot more effort than I should.  I don't have as many scum leads as I'd like, but given that I've been town hunting more than usual and that I was wrong on Sooh, that's not exactly surprising to me.

 

For the 4 in your PoE, I'd say FMPoV, Cass is the most likely scum at 3 to 1 odds over Cory.

 

FYI, you and Cass and Dice are my top three right now, but it's very fluid.  If you're town, help me out.

Hitchhiker's obviously doesn't count, I wasn't Mafia.

 

Would you describe "Mafia Mafia" as a game where I was a wolf disliking being a wolf and therefore being emotionally abusive? I was with Tom that game and I had a blast

 

Was there an undercurrent of hostility in my posting in the BT game?

 

I think you are making something to fit a fake narrative more than you are actually attempting to read me

Posted

Cory is town.

 

Is AJ being a dunce or is he a wolf iyo

 

AFAICT he's just showing everyone his massive effort in trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. I think he would have backed off as a wolf by now but I also think that's what I'd think he'd do as a wolf so I'm spinning on this carousel over and over and now I'm nauseous glgl

One of us is probably going to die before that happens in all reality.

 

To be as transparent as I can be, I'm afraid of letting go of the feeling I got D1. I don't want you to be a wolf but I also don't want to give you free reign in the chance that you are because I have seen you wreck towns before with a front row view.

Posted

I think the Darthe kill should have been a pretty big hint for you AJ, imo

 

I don't think I've ever nightkilled him before as a wolf ever because he's just too much fun to run circles around :wub:
