I don't think I've ever played a game with maximums before. It's oddly empowering to be able to look into people without them firing back.

Like I can say Dubz is acting a weenie by voting me for lame-o reasons, and she can't say jack about it until I'm already in bed mwuhahahahahaha

This being a champs practice game doesn't mean we totally toss meta and such out the window and pretend we don't know each other. That would be silly as we all have previous biases and preconceived notions affecting play. Sure, we could say we aren't going to talk about the reading card, but then Zenge votes Dubz D1 and you can see what's likely happened.
But if you don't want to care about it, okay! I like that me and Zenge are on the same wavelength, so I'm hanging out on this wagon. If you don't like it, okey dokey. Who are you wolf reading?

I'm still on JJJ and Mayo, but they are rapidly becoming incompatible, so I'm guessing there is a v/w interaction

I asked him what he found towny early on and he didn't get very specific. Are you characterizing it as a manufactured townread on samac..? Or what's your overall impression.

I suspect that it's an inauthentic town read, yes. I felt that way from the first "town tingle" read, so I grant confirmation bias may be present. But I don't really understand the rationale of the read.

This is sort of my point. You are prejudging every post rather than openly reading them. If you really are a villager, I think if you take a deep breath and read a non-prejudged version what I've written since I joined the game, you'll feel differently.

I'm sus reading you as well, so if you are a frustrated wolf feel free to carry on

If you have some specific questions about the read I think you should ask them but then I’m going to give my opinion.

That post wasn't even meant to be one in which I express suspicion. I was just commenting blankly about the notion that people might tunnel you in some games and acknowledging that I have no background.

I've asked mayo about the read. Do you mean ask you? You've spoken of it a bit too, but if you have more to say please do.

Dubz town reading Zenge seems weird, but I dunno what I'm doing with all the reading card dynamics

But you approached it with the assumption that the tunnel increased as they played, rather than the opposite. I think because you are frustrated with me (whether you are V or W)

I meant him if there was anything you need to know.
Maybe I have confirmation bias knowing I’m village, but mayo seems to be coming at me from a way that’s familiar. His comments about “well wolf samac would do this” seemed to be playing devils advocate to himself.

I thought that's what you said. "They come around to tunneling me on Day 3". Just misunderstood what you said.

Weird why? Zenge doesn't misread me when he's wolfing, certainly doesn't push my misyeet. He just kills me.

And anyway I said early on I felt like his engagement and comfort in the thread was villagey.
 
holdthemayo said:
Why would she push him if she's a wolf? Just looks defensive. Better to push someone with some sus and try to reassure zenges.

Depends upon whether the "reading card" thing is one-way or two-way. This idea seems more prevalent in this community than I tend to see anywhere else (save maybe Mafia 451), so I am not sure how to navigate it other than shrug.
 
potentialsheltervet said:
You're... Reading me D1?
And you're reading me village?
Click to expand...
Village lite fam. Zenge said you were village. I decided to take it into consideration.

I also don't really think you push me d1 while wolfing although now that I say it out loud you did say that thing about my misyeet working out in your favor before :thinkies:

But anyway unless I'm ultra wrong and it's literally you and Zenge in a pack deciding it would be cool to misyeet dubz d1 (not cool, for the record), it just seems unlikely. Feels like all the other times you've been uncomfortable about me when you were village.

Tends to be independent one way reading cards
 
@NateTheLesser Some mayo posts I liked, with commentary:

holdthemayo said:
Is it weird for moonshine to ask you why you voted there? Wouldn’t you want to build your case against pippy to convince others to vote with you?

holdthemayo said:
May have misinterpreted that interaction
Click to expand...

Maybe a little self-serving of me to start here, but I liked the questions, and the quick follow-up felt natural. (Also, "moonshine," LOL)

holdthemayo said:
I’m feeling good about Boquise after this.
Click to expand...

Comes to this conclusion based on a good post, IMO. (And even if Boq was "clowning" by confusing me for someone else, I can still post the quotes and no one will be the wiser... 😎)

holdthemayo said:
Strongly pinged. Both JJJ and WZ are going for the low hanging fruit at the time they answered this. Pippy was being widely wolf read and I had not made a serious post yet. Which is something Dubz at least should know is not a wolf tell for me, but rather a busy/bad day at work tell.
Click to expand...

I like the scrutiny here. Feels like a towny attention to detail.

Overall, I think mayo trended up today because like he said, he actually started playing the game today. And nothing serious he's posted has pinged me.

My Zenge-o-meter tends to err towards village
 
potentialsheltervet said:
I'm just a bit confused by this when we argued over this exact thing literally last game.
Click to expand...
And literally last game it turned out Zenge was right and you were village.

Did you not notice I held you out of my POE for the first several days?

Just curious because it's a read you seem to agree with based on your town list. If mayo's a wolf does that move your samac read either direction?
 
@moonstermash , I certainly appreciate the desire for crafted posts, but I think know is the time to throw a little caution to the wind. Where are you thinking about sticking that vote?
 
In addition to them, I've most sus of Dr Wil from a content/reads perspective. If Dubz flips wolf the VCA will look pretty good for them. I don't know if they are comfortable bussing or not.

Medium sus of Nate and mothy

I feel good about PSV, Dina, Zenges (pending this vote), and boquise

Lighter good feels about Pippy and Samac

The rest are neutral or traditionally difficult for me to read

--As of page 21 and recent posts--

I gotta agree
Caution isn’t needed here
Type whatever your heart desires
 
Wilgy is a goofball (endearingly), and he is probably going to pose a challenge to SDN at large when it comes to interpreting what he is doing and why. I think he looks the right way so far, and I'll expand on that when there's more time assuming I am not killed.

I’ll be honest it might be paranoia from last game but I don’t feel I’ll be able to full clear anyone other than zenge/PSV on the wagon
