I will admit it would have been a risk, but a risk that would have won town the game after my screw up
and from the pov of literally any other villager, they donât know that
/shrug
I mean itâs not like you were entirely unable to access the forums
you were online on the forums in the hours before action deadline and didnât submit
I would hope you wouldnât forget again but town canât rely on that, even under the assumption that you were town, because of what had already been shown
Thatâs true, but after I went to sleep that night I just forgot about submitting my action. I think it would have been neat to have been notified a few hours before the deadline
It was discussed in spec chat iirc, but the hosts couldnât do it as it would be biased (because they had not done that for everyone previously)
itâs not their responsibility to ensure people remember night actions
the part about notifying people?
yes the part about notifying people
Insanity hard TMId Alice as W and thatâs something you could have picked up on
i actually had a post where i talked about that but i completely forgot about the possibility
i made several mistakes this game unfortunately
tbh I feel like you are kind of deflecting the blame onto others for pushing you
When it was entirely justified.
I think your execution is, like, 95% just on you for forgetting the action and failing to prove yourself. And I donât really think itâs that⌠tasteful to focus on them pushing you for not confirming yourself when the major error happened when you did not submit.
Just my take but it feels like you are trying to find other things or people to blame when I think that your execution specifically is on you
i made several mistakes this game unfortunately
in the two days alive, despite writing this:
Its a part of your wincon to try to find wolves
Im not asking you to be right, im asking you to try. This game can have up to 8 wolves by SoD3 and you need to not only have a conclusive thought on every player by that time but to be active in trying to push your scumreads if were gonna win.
I never actually made a readslist and struggled to do so n3
i should have added âdonât forget youâre bleedingâ to my postgame townplay post :^)
Public Service Announcement
If the village canât find you as town and you get misyeeted, assume itâs your fault rather than theirs. The village is uninformed. They donât know your role PM.
The best thing you can do is try your hardest to ensure that you do not get misyeeted. Especially when the game depends on it.
In this game, it was about gorta resolving mechanically.
This exact reasoning motivated me to trueclaim under pressure on day 3, because I didnât want the village to tinfoil me and possibly even misyeet me as a result of me playing selfishly. (It still happened in a slightly different way, but that is beside the point.)
You just have to accept that âokay, they are not finding me, I must be doing something wrong.â Hell, even faking things is acceptable if it will make people not misyeet you! Just donât go overboard and create a situation where your team is in an even worse position.
At several points I was like
âwe arenât really trying to solve who visionary is sociallyâ
but i was too lazy to do it because we had a goddamn plan that only required villagers to send correct night actinos and yeet the openwolfer
Did I want to trueclaim? No. Did I think the push and suspicions on me were dumb? Yes. Was I annoyed by hypocrisy and stuff? Yes.
Did I care, in the end? No. Because doing the pro-town thing (trueclaiming) was the right thing to do then and there. And it would help people to stop tinfoiling me.
Sometimes, you just have to submit and understand that villagers might not realize youâre town. Help them.
PS. Self-meta isnât a good method of helping them, because they donât know if youâre feeding them lies or not. Only you truly know your ranges as both alignments, after all.
I think it would have been neat to have been notified a few hours before the deadline
Itâs not exactly the hostâs job to make sure players are paying attention to the game.
Like, this is also why the âIâm obvious townâ thing always annoys me. If someone is doubting your alignment, then clearly you are not obvious town for at least one person. Youâre just trying to convince them of something that isnât true in their eyes by⌠telling them lies, from their perspective. If they donât think youâre town, they arenât going to suddenly believe it just because you say youâre town.
Prove it. There are many ways to do that.
Also guys!!
As town itâs your job to look like an obvious townie
I know Iâm picking on you Gorta but for example
You never get into towncore/get Trâd by the majority of players but thatâs because of your playstyle
People always forget about you, you never try to interact with others you just make 10 quotes long catchup posts and have 0 impact on the game as town
Hell, even faking things is acceptable if it will make people not misyeet you! Just donât go overboard and create a situation where your team is in an even worse position.
âIâm the Priest!â
You have very little impact on the game and youâre not an obvious townie
You donât check out either of these two boxes so you must put some effort into making good posts in order to get read as town
Personally, I read people based on how they approach reading others. Thatâs why I frequently ask people for detailed reads. It helps me see their progression as well.
If you donât make reads, or if your reads are completely random, then I can and will scumread you.
Obviously there are exceptions to this, but thatâs how I generally approach reading people.
