Update to my Geyde read: Seeing as Marl turned out to have no red check on Geyde, I can keep Geyde as one of my top town reads.

#3502

didn’t you have a more scum read on Marl earlier?

#3503

Yeah I still have Marl in my PoE now you mention it. Their observer claim is giving me cold feet and I’m curious as to why people suddenly decided Soul isn’t a good wagon choice. Well except Eli and myself.

#3504

So, why are you letting someone in the PoE discredit your top town read with little to prove their claim?

#3505

*in your PoE

#3506

Soul is still in my PoE but id rather lynch Amelia

and this explains why you haven’t updated your read on me in 300 posts even though your main reason for scumreading me is gone, why?

#3509

even if you think i’m scum you could at least call out what you think is scummy
you’re just providing nothing of value to anyone

#3510

literally you’re doing what you accused me of doing d1 and early d2

#3511

How is my main reason gone? Besides, it’s not like I only have one reason.

So you still haven’t read the article.

#3512

I don’t see where I allowed Marl to discredit my town read. I was considering the possibility that Marl had mech information on Geyde.

#3513

i have no idea what article you’re even talking about

#3514

This article is what Jane is talking about.

#3515

I’ve linked it already.

#3516

pretty sure i clicked on that and then immediately closed it because it was obnoxious
no offense to newcomb

#3517

wait
the entire point of the article is to make yourself villagey
which you haven’t done at all really this game

you’re like a hard null at best
and blatantly scummy at worst

:joy_cat:

Once you’ve raised the bar and identified villagers, work with them. Mafia is a team game. Even if you don’t know who your team is, they’re still your team. Talk about reads that you disagree on. Focus hard on your collective nulls. Start constructing The Box, and see what shakes out when the wolves inside it start to realize that they’re not going to get a convenient case to argue against, they’re just going to get slowly but surely iced out.

Indirect pressure is better than direct pressure. If you make a big case directly to a wolf, you give them something to attack, something to engage with. You’re presenting a way for them to get out of the box. Indirect pressure - The Box - leaves them nothing to fight against.

#3519

as a villager inside of your box
this strategy is dumb and doesn’t work

#3520

it would be extremely comical and so fucking satisfying if literally all of the wolves are out of your POE
