Ah, right. Would it be more appropriate to label Solic a bad deepwolf then?

Since youā€™re claiming newbie I donā€™t think you should use those terms, but you could say something like ā€˜he wants us all to trust him so he can backstab us, hereā€™s why heā€™s actually acting suspiciousā€™

thatā€™s probably a bad phrasing but

I will do my best to push for astand lynch.

The hope is to lynch(and clean) astand, gimme hammer, i shoot chaing saying that i think they were astandā€™s scumpartner, and then go from there

arete, how long will you be around before EOD.

because i want to make 100% sure astand is flipping before clean

EoD is at like 6 AM when normally Iā€™d be getting up a couple hours later

if we think thereā€™s no way of us actually hitting majority I can plan to wake up just before EoD but I am not nearly committed enough to wake up every half hour just to find out if weā€™re close enough to hammer yet

Tbh I think itā€™s almost past the point I can pretend to be a dumb newbie (even though I am one, just not as dumb as chiang :stuck_out_tongue:) . Solic suspects, and a bunch of us raised the idea that Iā€™m strangely good for a newb or that I may not be a newb at all.

I wonā€™t use ā€˜deepwolfingā€™ anyway. I think itā€™s better that I appear to be a decently skilled new player, since youā€™ve pushed the idea that Iā€™m a locktown due to the effort Iā€™ve put into my Solic ISO.

Imma be pulling an all-nighter for this(and to catch up on HW).

@Luxy would I be able to puppet arete if arete was asleep?
and arete, would you be okay with me doing that?

I am okay with being puppeted to act, just run it by me first (which youā€™re doing here, so weā€™re good)

no idea how Luxy feels

Yeah I said I was gonna leave but have been more lurkey.

Are we all in agreement that a clean on astand is the best move if I can get hammer and vig chaing

Also, it would be a pretty pure shot, as maf would likely go for a more towncore shot

Are we going to let Boss get mislynched today?

I think astand is the plan.
But boss could work(and then be cleaned) and then I shoot tele

Iā€™m pushing Astand over Boss but Iā€™ll take either

The important thing is that we arenā€™t just sitting around on the sidelines at EoD, when both wagons end up being town people should look for whoever was relatively indifferent. Ideally we donā€™t all clump on the same wagon.

Iā€™ll probably have to stay on Solic. Itā€™ll look pretty bad to back off now, unless I can say the reasoning for switching is that I can actually contribute to a lynching since Solic wonā€™t be lynched today.

Thatā€™d need me to do a scumread on astand and make him look scummier than boss.

So the thing about you is that since youā€™re a newbie, you have a lot more leeway to switch around at random, as long as you donā€™t try to justify it

Disclaiming why youā€™re doing it makes you look self-conscious

Iā€™d still be self-conscious if I was town :upside_down_face:

But yeah Iā€™ll stay on Solic, try and othersā€™ townlocks on him.

*try and change othersā€™ townlocks on him.

So weirdly enough, the fact that youā€™d be self-conscious as town doesnā€™t actually matter, you want to look not self conscious

This is a major hurdle for me as a new FM player. It feels like I have to be an arrogant paranoid schizophrenic to generate the amount of reads and pushes that the towniest players do.

Itā€™s really odd that changing your mind and also taking time to make conclusions and properly qualify them can be inherently scummy.

Changing your mind isnā€™t necessarily scummy, if you do it right, but qualifying your reads is considered scummy because it makes it look like youā€™re mafia who doesnā€™t want to get scumread for being wrong
