This probably isn’t really the place for this it just came to mind and I don’t have much of a filter right now cause sickness. Anyway
They just sound kind of awkward to me, it’s all tone and vibes. They’re clearly supposed to sound spontaneous, and if you’re town, they probably were, but something about them just feels advance-thought-out to me, like you were on edge about what to post.
ok but like what about them feels awkward?
take a post and point out the words that were awkward, and rephrase it in a way that looks truly spontaneous to you
I’m sorry, professor, if you’ll see my earlier email, I am currently ill from COVID-19 and cannot complete any assignments right now. Please send them to me after class so that I can complete them in my own time.
These are the three posts that stood out to me as awkward. I don’t know how I could rephrase them… they’re just, like. It’s imperceptible. It’s a texture behind your words. It’s all vibes. Subconscious pattern recognition. You feel very pushy about this.
i can’t give a definitive answer to this because it’s correct and she has the right reasons but i don’t know whether she’d read me well as town because i’ve only played one game where she was town (and i was a wolf). every other game she’s been the wolf and i’ve been town. kinda crazy
yes i do. but i’m familiar enough with may to know that they can fake long explain-y reads as mafia. it’s quite literally their forte as a wolf. previously they couldn’t really fake their all over the place-ness as mafia and it was easy to catch them from how methodical she was playing. but now i’m not so sure how to read her. maybe still from engagement, idk
also I laughed at the uwu’ification of the posts lmao
FAM, I believe? Last time they wolfed in a game with me, at least. The last real game you can backread for real is PAYOR KRC:
My bullshit continuous meta “background thoughts read” on Garfooled is just based off of one… maybe hte firsrt game I played with them where I wolfread them the whole time but managed to find them town later on cause they were just so consistent in their principles. And I’ve extended that into a continuous attempt to read them over many games which I don’t think has failed yet but mostly because I keep randing wolf. In those games.
Gar had these very… the way I mentally visualise it is trying to make reads with a bandsaw, trying to go for these objective “does X do Y as wolf?” “the first X people on this wagon are wolves” kind of… like… avoidance of making the subconscious and subjective calls that townies do.
They tried to cast a wide net, reading a lot of people in the game all at once, blocks at a time, rather than being drawn to individuals. A “time to make reads now” brick.
Looking at the posts, they also made sure to specify the unsureness of their early reads, something they did here, too. I wanna compare to their towngames. I’m being overly reliant on meta I know this is a flaw but it’s Gaaaar I can’t not try to meta Gar it’s so fun
For the record we both agree with this given we literally banned ourselves from playing games together non-hydra because our personalities Do Not Work for that. We did this a while ago we’ve broken the promise multiple times since and it never goes well. It never goes well
your push on garfooled worries me a bit because the premise being mismatched confidence kinda feels like how you pushed me last game when you were mafia. i don’t really think projecting more confidence than you actually have is necessarily wolf indicative in a vacuum, either. like that’s normally how RVS goes for most people, isn’t it? nobody actually has any idea what they’re doing, and most people’s reads don’t extend beyond a slight gutread one way or the other, but nobody actually expresses them in that way - they express them just like any other read. i seemed confident on cait but i’m not, the reality is i had a read on what they had posted so far and yet i recognized i can only be so confident with it given how little i’m working from, but disclaiming to be extremely not confident didn’t feel very useful at that point
We played mafia together before we were dating. That was fine. It’s just that once you are dating then like. Having to argue with each other. Having conversations while maintaining game integrity. When I was hiding from thread I’d get paranoid and set my Discord status to invisible
may did you not have any thoughts on cait’s posts? most of the content that you commented on in your first post was people talking about cait, but you didn’t talk about cait themselves at all. isn’t this how you’d play it as w/w lol?
