I think his question was fine, but his approach to it was confusing given his own apparent TR of Alice. At first glance it looked like Vaseline Guy was trying to discourage me from Townreading Alice. At second glance it looks more like he's trying to figure out how I got there from Alice's interactions with you. To him, Alice's interactions with you have less meaning than they do for me, which is why I told him we play the game differently.
None, currently. I came out of retirement as a personal favor to Michelle.
Alice, why were you okay with not lynching yesterday? If we don't lynch, how are we gonna kill wolves?
If you keep asking people to move on, you might end up getting chopped.
My slot was already swinging from a noose by the time I got here. If I end up being chopped then at best I did what I could but did not have enough impact to either A) change the minds of towns, or B) counteract the influence of wolves.
To be frank, I don't care about your meta of Alice. I don't care how easily you do or do not find her as Town. Because I am not you. Just as I am not Vaseline Guy, I am not Alice, I am not Elmage, or anyone else. "I struggle to Town read Alice, but this guy seems to be doing it pretty easily" is not a valid reason for scumreading me if you are Town. It just means that I use different methods to form my reads.
I considered the world in which you are Town, and I considered the world in which you are Wolf, and then I considered what these would mean for Alice if she was wolf, and then I considered what these would mean for Alice if she was town, and as a result of my hypothetisizing, I decided that Alice's interactions with you are more indicative of a Town mindset.
This was the first post that pinged me when I started reading the thread. The tone just feels off. I'm not sure I can explain it any better than that. The casual "who knows" of the first part feels designed to reinforce the idea that Rej is uninformed. The second part did not age well given Ansa's flip. The third part is generally something I associate with wolves coquettishly asking villagers questions they know they can't answer.
Yes mostly because we are mindmelding on the obvious stuff I think.
The outcome of the read on Alice here feels at odds with the first statement. If Alice treats Ansa (and others) like they are players unalighed to her, and you Town read Ansa, then surely the default position to take on Alice is that she's wolf. "Null" is not in opposition to Town, and it being "locked" is just ???
I'm sorry, nobody informed me I was supposed to struggle on any reads. I'll write a strongly worded letter about this post game.
Tell you what. Pretend my predecessor doesn't exist. Read me off what I'm doing and saying. At least give me another Day phase, to have chance to gain some potential insight into the motivations of players, and interact more meaningfully with the entire player list.
If you are not the host/player with TMI/God who knows everything you are supposed to struggle with your read. At least a little bit.
I'm trying to do that at the moment.
Which is just... meh.
I knowingly subbed into a sinking slot, and the only way to pull myself out of it is to trust myself and hope I can bag a wolf to clear my name. I won't do that by being indecisive.
