I think this was the buzzer beater hammer if the count was truly 5 to 5 going in to page 25

Makhaira wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2024 1:42 am Current reads in order from town to scum:

EGW - no way scum!EGW banks on holding on to a "true" scum read on me hoping to get a powerswap post deadline extension, I'd be genuinely shocked

Freddino18 - slot seems to genuinely not give a fuck about anyone else's perception of his slot which skews town for me, also his posts make me laugh

Seven - good acting re: faking stylistic flourish in ego defense on them being "wrong" and changing their mind on EGW if this is scum!Seven which is def not impossible, slot seems to be actually updating

Wam - seems to be trying to sort atleast some slots

Madge - slot is a little too self centered to be scum imo, genuinely seems to be in her own world this game and doesn't seem to be really "playing off" of any other slots or considering others' viewpoints, I would borderline consider the slots play griefing to their mates as scum tbh. Maybe entirely uncoordinated is the word I'm looking for here which skews town to me. Consistent AtE muddles the slot tho

Theallieza - levelheaded and has had some unique insights that actually keep the ball rolling, seeing some genuine sorting effort but I know scum!Thea is fully capable of faking this well so slot ranks slower due to risk of snow

somitomi - notoriously hard player for me to read, has some posts that would require better "acting" so to speak to pull off as scum so very slight town lean but also has some weird takes and reactions

Bessie - even harder slot for me to read. I think I've only seen scum!bessie once and I still feel like I didn't learn anything about her scum meta. Truest neutral read in the game for me. I generally have to just rely on her voting patterns to read her, her prose is so static its inscrutable to me

Gluelock - entrance to the game was kinda dumb and unhelpful (babyjesus vibes for any mafiascum forum veterans) but the wagon on the slot came too easy imo, I share thea's wariness here

moody7277 - I don't understand why what catches this slot's attention caught said attention, their focus feels alien to me and therefore not towny, but their post count analysis seems a little incongruent for a wolf that is playing a very passive role in the game so far

JC_DADDY25 - I feel bad having JC this low with him townreading me but I feel like JC generally is suss on my slot and I don't really feel like I've done anything to "earn" a townread from him so it just feels weird. also in full disclosure I am very biased against this slot due to previous in-game trauma related to treatment I've received from this slot (i.e. I'm still seething over being vigged in PYP) so this is kind of a self-pres/late game risk profile reduction placement)

heuristically_alone - taking the "oh I'm so absentminded this game awww shucks" approach feels opportunistic, don't get any feel that there is a genuine interest in solving from this slot

Those typically take 12 hours for me, expect something early Day 2. I go through and summarize every post in a doc, then take notes, then consolidate into reads.

Makhaira wrote: ↑Sun Sep 08, 2024 5:15 am mad wtf at me getting shot I dont even think I was playing that townie last phase fml, maybe someone caught on to that and reasoned I was trying to a hide a PR

not the strongest PR of all time, psychic was passive and gave me the name and mechanics of any roles that targeted me at night. The only two roles to do so were the killing role and the treestump role so no one else went after me as far as I can tell and I don't know of any other PRs in the game sorry

Makhaira wrote: ↑Sun Sep 08, 2024 5:13 am Seven I appreciate the gusto but I can 100% see you doing exactly that if you snowed me last phase and I just happen to be wrong on heury

I'm currently seeking mod clarification if my tree stump ability lasts just for this day phase or for the rest of the game

going to be honest not being able to vote is going to dampen my motivation to like hardcore solve this game but I am not going to play against wincon so I will absolutely try to help yall solve with reasonable effort

still mad yalls waffling at EoD cost us the heury elim grrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I would, but I wouldn't lead the charge directly. I'd allow others to do it.
