DEMONOLOGY - GAME THREAD

Saying votes aren't useful was probably excessive on my part.  It's good for a lot of people and I use it often enough, it's just not my primary go-to.

 

I get what you're saying about wanting to holster your town reads to see who pushes them.  I've seen fairly obvious villagers duke it out in most games I've played and if I'm a wolf I sit back and let it happen while trying to look like I want to figure them out, as a villager I take a strong stance if I have one because I don't want a mislynch.  And that's more where I and I think a lot of the Cory Curren copycats come from--a sort of power struggle between wolves and villagers for thread domination, where we try to not let wolves have a free pass to sit back and relax when all the pressure is on villagers.

 

You make that sound like the only correct way is your way, which is not true.  JiF has been playing his way on JN for years, and he's done well.

 

I think the biggest difference is the amount of subtlety used.  JiF and I both come from a mafia time/place that prefers more subtlety than the way mafia is played now on a lot of sites (POG, MU, etc).

 

Two routes to the same destination, imo.

Since this thread needs less holstering:

 

I'm less confident on Zander than I had stated. This happens a lot. I know from experience that my initial gut feel on him is probably right, so I roll with it and call him obvious town and by EoD he's typically done enough to validate the initial feeling. Has enough happened yet to make me lock him in as a villager for the entire game?  No. Part of that's been a slank thread in general producing fewer readable situations. Is he probably a villager and will I absolutely not lynch him today? Yes.

 

I dont know if Shad's actually feeling this atp, or just posting it because its what Town!Shad would normally do.

In case people want to get some clarification on my playstyle: firstly I'm town. Sometimes I comment to fish for reactions. Since I have a certain role, I'm trying to find hints for who else has roles that are relevant to me in the game.

And I do like to joke/troll to frustrate you guys :rolleyes::birgitte:

 

Gross.

Also not sure what to make of JiF being all philosophical and lecture-y.

Seems to be a convo that happens often as of late

Really? Is it usually about the same thing as this?

The past two games at least. Both with JN folks but it tends to end with agreeing to disagree and carrying on

Whoa whoa, I missed this the first time around.

 

Certain role?  And he was asking for who was his teammate before?  wtf..?

Honestly it will be interesting to see who flips what. But I know that an inactive will be killed in the night (it's something mafia would do and it's a good strategy that doesn't give anything away), so we won't get any real clues as to who is town or mafia.

So in my opinion, we have to lynch someone for better or for worse.

 

:dry: :dry: I know you guys will interpret that as scummy, but it's not. In fact mafia would want no majority to be reached so that they could get two kills.

 

Which brings a thought to mind, has anyone been hindering the build up of any train on a single person? Maybe some clues are there

 

Huh?  Can we lynch this dude already?

I forgot Amega was playing.

lololololol

Short answer is no

The best part will be when folks realize that they're going to have to go back and read through all these pages of D1 for clues. 

 

But that's none of my business. 

 

I LIKE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

On a game related note am I the only one who cringed at Pral's "ZOMG Zander so towny" post?

 

It was a joke right?

 

What made you cringe, was it Pral's comment itself or you disagree with the read or both?

Posted

 

 

Is that based on anything? Or gut hunch

A little of both

 

Dave looks like lynch bait to me

 

Snow doubling down concerns me

 

 

If Hermes is a Wolf...so are AJ and prolly Shad imo.

 

 

Gross.  Disappointing Zander.  Tying players together on D1?  Tisk tisk

Oh ya I forgot, youre completely right here....there are only 1 man Wolf teams...wtf am I thinking?!?!?!?!

I have a plan.

 

If we can't find a wolf by EoD we lynch Nolder.

unvote, vote Shad

#raisins?

 

Nyn had me distracted, sorry. Wassup?

lolololololol

 

If we took everyone voting right now and put them onto one person we would still only be at L-2. Where are the other 12 players and why aren't they voting?

Just woke up and don't feel strong enough to vote anyone yet. I won't vote for Hermes today. Snow possibly.

 

 

Snow: anything to add? What are you're reads?

 

In fact since deadline is tomorrow can everyone please give where they are...I mean whatever reads they have on people so far.

Did you mean Snow is someone you dont want to or are willing to lynch?

 

And why for whichever?

Might be WTL. As to went he was the other train, to have more than one vote, and nothing he's said has me reading him add town. So since he's an unknown I wouldn't feel bad putting a vote on him.

The comment was awkward imo. Maybe I'm just not used to Pral joking around and I assume that's what it was.

 

But since I know it'll bug you the read was hot garbage too lolol

I don't think he's scum so I won't be boring him today.

Other than the reads I've already said? Most of the people I don't have reads on don't have enough content for me to make a call.

1. Sometimes depending on the roster but not typically.

 

2. It's happened a few times recently.

 

1. Fair. Seems opposite based on what I've been reading.

 

2. So overall, not so much?  Meaning, maybe what I'm referring to is ineffective? 

 

What are your current reads?

 

You've posted things like the above but I don't recall any reads from you.

 

I'm not liking what I'm reading for David.  Zander just pinged big time.
