Omega Strikers FM - Saboteurs and Dissenter Win

[Kai_OS (Kai)]

fwiw i got kinda pinged by juliette push on Rune cause like rune missing the context is not ai imo. wolves will super rarely purposefully misinterpret the context so blatantly, its more likely just a genuine mistake regardless of alingment but juliette spun it as a wolf read

my guts tell me estelle/juliette has exactly 1 wolf and rest of high posters are villa

also i won’t be very active until weekend and i have weird times that i am able to be online at so if you somehow decide to lunch me plz wait for me to be back (i’ll never completely afk for too long) cause i am fairly confident i can clear myself

@Estelle

Can you explain why?

I don’t think that is something I can explain… can you explain why something didn’t change your opinion? Even outside of this game?

@Estelle

I’m confused on how you thought your case actually had merit in the first place. It wasn’t really strong to begin with, and I thought you realized this when I pointed out part of your case being flawed as you stopped voting me.

I’m getting mixed signals… some people say it did have merit, others say it did not, and both sides are somehow questioning the way I handled it. I’m not sure what I’m expected to have done there.

@Dubu

I have 9 on-topic posts, what do you mean, not enough content?

@Estelle

I’m on break now so I’m going to go delve into why I think Julliet is town, mainly for my sake because I wrote that Juliet’s was town, but I didn’t really think much of it - I thought they were town without really thinking about why, which is what I need to figure out now as to why I thought they were town.

I believe the reason I thought they were town is because of how they have acted in the thread so far, and how the thread has acted around them. When I read their posts I don’t really feel any agenda in them, I see a sense of curiosity in their posts that is indicative of them not having too much information. Feels like they are trying to understand other people instead of trying to 1-up them or dunk on them.

When I write this out, it doesn’t feel like a lot, but I like the reasoning as for why I believe that I think they are town. Something to note for others is that I lean a direction on a player before I actually think about why I believe that - I then proceed to think about why I believe that, and ask myself whether or not I am believing it for a good reason. I am reasonably confident based around how they are acting that they are just a competitor.

Mmm, I like this post. Estelle might be a competitor here.

UNVOTE

@Ai.Mi

But regardless of conviction, what about Estelle’s post made you change their mind? Their reply seemed to have very little to do with what you were voting them for.

It thoroughly countered one of my points.

@Ai.Mi

Like I’m not saying in that quote “oh, you seem completely convinced”, my issue is that if that reply was enough to push you off it, it seems to be a read you had no belief in in the first place.

That’s where you’re mistaken. I can have belief and still reconsider when my point is countered.

@Atlas_OS

It is also exactly the set of posts I would expect a saboteur to make if the thread consensus was targeting two legitimate competitors.

I can see why.

[Era]

Hmm… if I trust my allies, I have a towncore of Atlas, Drekar, Juliette, and Luna. I personally believe that Estelle, Juno, and X are town. I think Kai’s posts have been reasonably towny, although I lack a good reason for saying that (and I am admittedly biased by him defending me). This leaves me with Ai.Mi, Dubu (who I believe could go either way), and Rune.

VOTE: Dubu

I think that you should play the game at this point.

[Era]

I don’t like the fact I’m the top wagon. Can we please change that? I am a competitor.

[Luna]

I’m pretty sure Era is one of the most obvious townies in the game

I think a wolf would push her in this thread state because you can read her posts and make up reasons on a surface level that she’s a wolf. But there’s enough micro tells that reveal she’s a competitor

So there’s a wolf in Rune/Drek/ai. I’m inclined to think Drek is a competitor at the moment so the lunch should be in Rune/ai

[Kai_OS (Kai)]

i have changed my mind, i think juliette probably villa

still dunno about estelle. i guess i am more inclined to lunch in like ami/dubu/x/rune over them even if it feels lazy but ehhhhh

[Estelle]

Ah. Don’t worry, unlike other people in the game, I have also started to be concerned about how confident I am that you are town. Though, I will admit, I did not take you for the type of person to deny being “masons” with someone d1, even if you aren’t that confident whether the person you are masoning with is town. Two heads are better than one after all.

[Estelle]

Not really - they haven’t pushed me that hard to begin with. I will wait to see how they handle re-evaluating me though, as they claimed they would do so, so I’ll wait patiently to see what they say with regards to that.

[Estelle]

@Era

I’m getting mixed signals… some people say it did have merit, others say it did not, and both sides are somehow questioning the way I handled it. I’m not sure what I’m expected to have done there.

Do you usually let other people in the game decide whether your arguments have merit.

[Estelle]

Fwiw if you are town I’ll definitly find you, just keep doing your own thing

[Estelle]

Anyway
This is an anonymous game, so different levels of skill are expected among other people. I think it’s fair to judge how experienced a player is at the game by judging the manner they are playing - and whether a degree of caution is necessary. Atlas play this game has made me re-evaluate my lazy town read on them - I’m not clearing that slot until he shows me a wolf head that they caught with their bare hands. I expect others to do the same.

[Juno]

He called being defensive an overrated wolftell and said he was the optimal D1 elim. More than reason enough.

[Juno]

Only a townie would do the /15 thing imo.

[Juno]

Every time I read a post of yours I start uncontrollably yawning. I think it’s a pretty big sign you are mafia.

[Estelle]

It’s actually a sign that you are tired and should take a nap.

[Juno]

Atlas and Era seem fine.

Estelle is probably very inexperienced since she claims to believe that what Atlas has posted so far makes him good at mafia to the point where he must produce a pelt to earn her trust. I don’t think it is a fake sentiment regardless of alignment but I do think it is something a relatively new player says 95% of the time.

This makes my scumread on her stronger of course.

[Juno]

It’s not against site rules to fake red checks if the person is actually mafia right?

Just curious. No real reason.

[Juno]

Kai coming in hot with the “if you are villa and the person pushing you is a wolf, they are probably trying to get you killed to advance their win condition” insight.

[Juno]

None of my reads have changed because I am perfect. I added a couple new ones for fun. Toodles.
