If both our subs play, we can opt for the more ideal 10-player game :<

We seem to have trapped one of the mods within the forum's code... and we're not sure how to get him out. Oh well, he'll figure it out!

« on: November 17, 2023, 03:19:34 PM »Sorry Specs you got lynched, on the plus side I thought you were being a really cunning wolf but slipped in that while you wanted to look really good and gather data for town, you actually sat on the fence with it and didnt want to push any direction
TZP, it was a tough call to make and feels like it would have been a coin flip
The thing is for every sus wolf play that A# made, poet had also made a similar human play. It was hard to distinct between the two.
Historically anything A# did would get her lynched easily - not really helping humans, clearly not trying to hunt wolves, not analysing anyone’s posts, low effort, making irrational moves, making votes that don’t make sense - however we are in an age of TWG where these things are also happening frequently with humans. So we somewhat have to compensate our thinking which I think bit me in the bum a bit here. I think A# did have genuine personal reasons for not being as active so it wasn’t necessarily a play style choice as it was a play style circumstance ?
It still doesn’t really feel like we had the wool pulled over our eyes as I can’t really recall anything that made me think A# was incredibly human - just neutral and Poet did incredibly suspicious things, and TZP had a clear change of tone this game , and some tiny things I thought were odd reflecting off of that. I think only notable for A# is when I claimed wolf and she outright called it a lie - I thought surely a wolf wouldn’t do that but maybe I got reverse reverse psychology’d, or maybe it was a clear slip from her to be so confident I was bluffing whereas everyone else bought it - should have just took the reaction at face value.
Nevertheless congrats on the win!
I think we need to just lynch the quieter players early on as they’re too difficult to read, or compensate our readings on by late game. I guess we could have went poet/A# day 2, but that forced Specs being lynched day 3, which I guess would have felt like 3 forced lynches - lynching middle day 1, the quieter players day 2, and then forced to block day 3 and just hope a wolf was in there somewhere to get free choice day 4.
This, 100%, especially the bit about the era of TWG we’re in. The meta has gone backwards lol. I suppose that to push it forward again, the only way forward is through. These are good observations to be making
At the same time I feel like I’ve sounded way too salty in this postgame though, and I’m sorry if that’s how I’ve come across. A# you won fair and square from a very tough start, so great job.

Also, thanks for the thoughtful postgame breakdown Oricorio. Hope we have you around for more of this!

That’s my point though, leaving aside the fact that the reads weren’t accurate, Specs didn’t look really that suspicious to my eye. Just because people suspect him doesn’t mean what he was doing is objectively suspicious
“Hey we should probably carefully map out who dies and when when we lynch”
“Clearly wolf, lynch him and also our one confirmed human I guess”
ninja’d, good grief Specs

Last thing before I sleep: I’m curious, who else on the human team would have gone for Poet over A# at the end? Did I miss something that should have made it obvious?

Also, I disagree that Specs’ insight was overly mechanistic. I think he was trying to frame the discussion around lynch candidates, and registering your own reads on people typically comes after they start talking about those potential lynches.

BDS is there a reason we’re capping it at 8 players? We had 11 in signups last time, and traditionally when the holidays start rolling around people become more available and interested in playing.

I think what this game demonstrated to me is that I’m not great at wolf hunting lol. I haven’t really had to do that in earnest since the revival started—the only other game I’ve been a human had enough gimmicks that we forced the wolves without having to resort to social deductions.
Oricorio I agree that I should have been pushier really the whole game, but the entire final phase the two people opposite me were basically not responding substantively to anything I was saying, and that was a very frustrating spot to be in! A# was a top suspicion for me the whole game but I talked myself out of voting for her because she was basically hiding, and the more present Poet had her own slips. I would really hate to see inactivity return to the meta as a viable strat.
I did have fun though, especially once Specs was lynched and I realized I needed to pay a lot more attention. Thank you much for hosting! I hope that you’re able to cross-pollinate some other old MafiaScum ideas over here, because this was a clever game.

Yeah pretty much anything I can say is gonna be insane cope because in fairness to the wolves they made a generational comeback after a swingy start
I’m just frustrated because I don’t feel like I could have done anything else that last day phase. It felt like a coin flip

Ok but that would be a very easy thing to say as a wolf, because I am openly building a case against her, whereas she has not done the same for either you or me. So maybe that makes me want to vote you instead
