[FM] Geyde PFPs Joat9 - THE LYING DARKNESS AND FIREMAN WINS (2/2)

Okay so

Ami might be scum

Jane’s wall and tunnel on me vaguely feels like Eric’s wall on me in marblez
Kind of a “i’m looking for scum and I found it” thing.

I was told that I should have addressed his case on me that game and I find the mindset he had in that post

Ok, lets start with this: take some salt. I started reading his ISO hoping to find wolf, and (no surprise)I did. That could very possibly be meaning that I just saw what I wanted

To be kind of what jane had. Both of their cases were bad and did a poor job of actually making the case for me, and to be honest rereading that wallpost it feels like Jane never cared about actually solving my slot and instead trying to make me look wolfy

Like actually yeah it’s exactly that that post is devoid of any genuine attempt to solve my slot.

Jane's wallpost on me

not only is it’s logic not good but I feel like jane didn’t set out to solve my alignment and instead just tell everyone why i’m a :joy_cat: wolf :joy_cat:

Jane's wallpost on gorta

let’s ignore the fact that he went back on what he said he was going to do in the first sentence and later on justified a really weird townread on derps. In this he actually like… analyses each post. And he asks gorta a question, and pings him. This shows jane is capable of making wallposts that don’t just set a person up as whatever aligment they set out to read a person as, but they still didn’t do it with us.

It’s possible they did my wallpost just to look productive but also when they started wolfreading us was when we were a large wagon early and sometimes scum will tunnel a LHF or consensus wolf and when they start being townie, they’ll just ignore it and continue the tunnel.

I can point to a few games where I was in that mindset and so yeah there’s another wallpost BITCHES

insane reference marsh, issue is the only 2 people who played D1 here apart from you are

in the same team

so less towncred :^)


otherwise i agree the push is weird but like compared to nap I have no pre existing read so I dont have much

I really liked quite a bit of arete’s posts and ami’s ISO is fine too

I mind-melded them enough where I think they are probably just town

I’ll outright say that the “gamer things” that I was looking for with arete were arete trying to fake mindmelds with me but to be honest I don’t actually think arete is doing that. I also think arete believes their reads so yah.

and Ami’s iso is fine so like I don’t think amislot is wolf here

whats your case on ami

PC blue les go

lemme commit towncase on Napoleon

Change in playstyle and voting RT

so this announcement is appearing as ‘scummy’ because it is performative

but…this really only becomes the conversation when people push on it - not because he kept pushing it, dunno how it would go if it wasnt pushed, but I dont think its bad at all. If you play differently enough, because how much people rely on meta, announcing it like this just makes sense

and I dont really care if you think this is a bad reason, but his thought process is the exact same thing I was thinking in FoL 28 and I was town

similarities

both trying to take a step back and watch thread

we do both become center of attention which was p much the exact opposite of the plan and SR’d

after enough of the plan failing and being unable to at least give it a shot we get annoyed, drop it, and defend ourselves fowardly

I believe the change in play style is town AI, maybe NAI at worst - I get sometimes its scummy to say ‘hey im going to play differently this game’ because it looks like your getting out of meta reads but you shouldnt be trying to find similarities between town games anyway, that just locks them into a playstyle, rather look for similarities between scumgames if you think theyll play the same every time. So, it shouldn’t have to be said, but it makes sense to say it at the start of the game

also, since meta is rather ‘tight’, saying your aiming for a specific playstyle shouldnt be interpreted as scummy - rather, look at the playstyle and how they go through with it, not the fact that it exists.

unfortunately, we dont get to see how he’d go through with it, but I do think the playstyle was good, saying that somewhat because ive tried it before but also trying to take a step back and making reads by yourself/then share results comes from a townier mindset

though it would probably make them harder to read, depending on how they handled it.

this is almost a laughable reason to SR someone

just because it wasnt the pinnacle of RTs doesnt mean its scummy

like, a bad RT is not a scummy one - this isnt like a rolefish. This is just a normal thing to see

[quote=“Marshal, post:109, topic:82543”]

It was a very early RT

and I dont think it was really that out there in either uselessness or performativity

and I dont even think this RT was new for him

so to break it down

its not wolfy, and the change wasnt bad

when it becomes literally the main point of conversation, yes, it gets talked about anyway

I imagine its significantly harder when your effectively forced into being the topposter when the goal was to be a lowposter till later in the day

you may think they’re dumb. I cant argue with opinions. But its not scummy, and its certainly alright for his third post

you do realize how dumb this sentence is, right


Defending against some other cases from marshal

[quote=“Marshal, post:156, topic:82543”]

ah yes

try to gamesolve on his third post

trying to gauge reactions early is fine - its a stupid reason to SR because ‘RT bad’

is it specifically him that you think its scummy when he does RTs

and I dont see how his intentions to take a step back and observe conflict?

also saying someone’s RT is bad and that someone wouldnt do bad RTs as town isnt a thought process I agree with


great

so the above is mostly ‘your read is bad’

because I think your read is bad

so lets have

Why my read is good
  • Mindmelds with playstyle change/position
  • towny defense
  • Push on Arete

ive already went over the first point

im mainly refering to these posts, because this is where he’s actually defending himself

Summary

I liked the defenses because they didnt waddle around the accusation - they addressed the points and why they didnt work

and…they dont feel ‘caught’? I guess I could say? Like, their acknowledging the argument, saying why its bad, but still see the one or two posts that work. It doesnt feel squirmy, more analytic

Posts where Nappy pushes Arete

Their points about Arete not following through with their read, and then Arete just kind of says ‘Re-eval’ - I do see what Nappy means about Arete and I can follow his thought process and thats towny

Nappy sees something they dont like, they push it, and I can follow the thought process well enough to believe they believe in the read

so they get to be town


wallposts are not fun

also the amount of dropdowns makes it seem longer then it is

Ami is trying to hard imo

Like by itself it sounds good but

As town they care less?

They want to shit post more and just chill

They don’t usually bother making much in terms of reads and tone feels more like hell in a cell to me

is it bad i got like the opposite impression

I didnt think they were really doing alot and being a bit distant from thread until they SR’d Nappy…right after Nappy SR’d them

Their not super engaged but like it feels more so than I think it should

so i agree with the conclusion just not how you got there

though arete is better, where I probably wont keep pushing them

/unvote

forgot about this

(I was voting sulit btw, kinda infers arete)

I still don’t like to nor want to read arete

@Arete my stance on you is fuck reading you

brb

I have way too many posts left

My playstyle evolves unconsciously, just look at my game history here and you can tell that 2 of my games will never be the same 100%

I don’t know what to say, but I have been less depressed lately I guess because things have been better and that pours into my mood in these games

I just didn’t see much that I felt like I had to respond to and it was only 200 something posts

From skimming my gut says Arete is towny and so is Marshal. I should case Marshal eventually, but right now I plan on casing Ami/Artete and Nappy

Any particular people in my PoE that you want me to go into detail about? I also just finished hydraing a game with Marshal on another site, so I am pretty sure that Marshal is town here from how he has been playing

It’s not that my WiM is low, it’s that my style changes over time and I am usually a lowposter, but with the post limit I am trying to limit my posts

1 Like

tbh I think that could also just be a product of being hydra’d with someone and wanting to perform better.

That’s why I tried harder in d1 of marbles and part of why i’m being more serious here and throwing all my WiM into solving

I don’t think it’s compelling enough to make me look past the towniness of arete

I’ll look through the TBE wallpost eventually

fwiw I think ami had liked my posts against nappy before the case nappy made on arete/ami

Can we agree to not alive Jane today tho

Also make sure we give cover for everything tomorrow nerds

we have like 23h left

but you can vote Jane if your not already

I just woke up and honestly haven’t read this wallpost and barely caught up, but

I think this is kinda dumb but also, at this stage of the game, comes from town more often than not

Like, unless this is a W/W defense, wolf!TBE has no real reason to try to say “your read is bad, mine is better” in this way?


Also this is post 99/150 so @Marshal slow the heck down

Which probably means I should actually read that wallpost as to save posts for later


I don’t entirely agree with it but I think you believe what you’re saying

I think you’re putting a bit too much merit in "he’s saying things that were basically how I felt (as town) in FoL28, which means he must be town here

But I also think it’s a genuine thought because I could see myself thinking similarly


I asked Marshal about this post and he thought about the same thing

He thinks that the “why my read is good” part was bold and looked good for him but he didn’t think the post itself was super convincing


I’d recommend you read their posts complaining about how me/Marshal weren’t tunneling them

I think their logic made little sense but I also don’t see it coming from a wolf

But I do agree, fuck reading Arete, I think I found a secret to it though :eyes:
