A few things to unpack catching up with the thread. As for me- I rolled wolf. I promise I only want to eat your little ones and elderly as I exercise the greatest evil I can achieve manipulating you all to turn against etch other. Just let me eat your people and we can be friends : )
But I am not ok with anyone being more evil than me. I must be the greatest evil in this game.
Did Lunatic recruit me? I got the offer yes. I will confirm as much which does place them as confirmed town. I did not accept. My role did not need to be in a guild to do the stuff it does and I did not see a real benefit in sharing a chat that offset the cost of expanding the towns PR after conversations with the host about game mechanics. While I am going to avoid unpacking any read of Wylted or Lunatic given I feel both are almost certainly town and Lunatic is effectively confirmed town to me I think expansion of PR’s holds value to the town and for any that question it look at post 377. I never accepted and if I was mafia I would have to gain advantage.
I will not say what I do but I do not need be in a guild to do it. I saw it as a greater issue for me to have a voice in some group chat than me not being able to act if they choose to recruit to unlock more PR functions. 281 of Lunatic also reflects blocking some of the other towns recruitment voicing they had 2 shots go through and somehow blocked 1 from the other side that Wylted did not say was untrue. Sounds like N0 was a disaster for town imo.
Thoth caught my attention a good bit. Some early ‘hanging out’ behavior in 222 and 232 followed by some decent takes in 240. They push in 279 a question of long term returns for short term gains with a slant. This caught my attention. Huge intention tell to be questioned here I see on if enabling more TPR actions should be limited to just locking in who is currently in the groups. While I disagree with their conclusion I also do question the motive for their conclusion.
Externally Wryly hit on a TMI potential on Thoth which I pinged on pretty hard before catching up with chat and seeing their post. I am in a spot of questioning why Thoth would make themselves such a focus with such a complex position to the point I would have targeted questions before potential aggression-
@Thoth
Can you unpack exactly how developing less TPR is beneficial in your head?
What is it that you see as the optimal mech path of using recruitment creating new TPR’s vs using the current ones ability now with the knowledge that only 2 out of 4 town recruitments actually happened?
ILikePie5 caught my attention early but their progression was unremarkable. They push Mestari potentially opportunistically in 40. They then shift though around 193 to a target that was voting Mestari which makes no sense for someone trying to accomplish an easy dunk. Bussing? Distancing? Etc? Lots of questions. I have not seen much from them to feel comfortable either way on them
@ ILikePie5 can you explain your thought process transitioning between Mestari and Kohai (who was voting your Mestari)
Mestari is a subject of focus. Im kinda pissed off about why tbh. I talked about this at length in my wolf chat as I spoke about my desire to eat your children and elderly but effectively nobody is stupid enough to OOG leak “What is a godfather” and a host not reroll. They are semi host confirmed town imo. Not happy about it but I will run with that advantage.
Implcaitions of Mestari- They played a lynch bait play or are very stupid. Ok.. Sure… Ignoring all that bullshit and the horse it rode in on Kohai’s 153 stands out highlighting that ‘slip.’ We can unpack that without touching the angle shooting nonsense. Opportunistic intention tell gunning for the situation with a lot of framing organizational posts and few takes outside of this. Does not look great but in 276 they shift to Thoth which in context is not opportunistic and looks better.
WIFOM /bussing arguments may exist but they are exactly that here. @Kohai independent of that situation I really do not like is a part of the game conversation what else do you see in Mestari? Do you think they would deep fake so far or do you think there is such a slip and why did you full claim so quickly in 197?
To the people reading this I am also seeing a lot of “Im doing vague good organizing things” posts which reflect effort which gets perceived as towny but also excuses doing things in the game while avoiding the uncomfortable things for a scum. I will express limited concern on Kohai’s slot.
RexFavilla is of interest. Apparently one of the two guilds recruited as they verified in 347. Cool. Does nothing to confirm their alignment. I liked their backtracking on Mestari 67 but I just do not see much to peg them one way or the other. Pretty neutral overall but something to take note of.
@RexFavilla Who do you feel should be focused? What do you think about the idea of guilds taking no action vs recruiting?
Casey_Risk caught my attention. They hit on critical information control in 322 but they seem to take very ehh ‘acceptable’ positions to the point I question how many original positions they have. That in mind..
@Casey_Risk Who do you think should be focused on and why?
Alyssa is a higher level of my paranoia on this subject. Everyone has posted but me? Interesting that I am on their mind while that’s not the case. Im going to hold off before saying more but I will vote here and eat some popcorn watching what others see on them.
VTL Alyssa
(Let me know if I voted wrong new to the server and such but they should get some focus)
I do think we should hit hard on the lurkers moving towards EOD targets. From what I am looking at so far I think we have a majority low effort lazy mafia team hoping that Town eats itself while we have 3 smi-confirmed town and some patterns I wont outline yet.
