• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Snom Mafia

Mewtini, can you go a little more into the tonal differences between Cats Superjolt and here Superjolt? I may be excusing the depth difference too much because of the different circumstances, but I do think the circumstances are different enough... going off memory and like a 5-minute ISO skim of Cats, so I’ll dive back into that if I have time.


ftr, from what I know, MP7 has a high volume ceiling as both alignments. My impression is that her volume is much more indicative of her time to play than her alignment.

If she is “powerwolfing” (townreading partners and scumreading town), that doesn’t bode well for my reads because I think we have pretty similar ones, heh. Of course mafia might be conscious of their popularity, though.

This is a selfish thing and I realize EoD is pending, so we can talk about this later, but... I will absolutely need you to talk about your read on me more. Then again, I've been purposefully pushing my read of you to the back of my brain repeatedly, so I don't want to hold you to an unfair standard. Let's circle back.
 
actually, hot take:

if the wagons are v/v, who is currently not voting? this is sorta what i was thinking of when i made the post ™ that seems to be getting quoted a lot

if wagons are v/v mafia know their popularity will go down so they might try to avoid voting and let town self destruct
 
i probably don't have time to dig atm but i think he threw way more shade in cats than he did in tvt. in tropes i remember him posting sort of, like, naively - stuff like "eifie seems like an alien" because she joked around so much, making overliteral reads, etc. which he didn't really do in cats (instead trying to shade VM for asking skylar about why she said "i know who the vig is," going back and forth on emmy)
 
yeah, i highly doubt that the wagons are w/w, bc if they were i feel like at least one of them would be “self defense” pushing the other.

and honestly even if it is v/v idk where else i would want to hang a vote on right now

tempted to switch my vote after reading all of the posts about it, and honestly was tempted to vote there in the first place, but i want to hang onto even wagons for a bit longer, since there’s still a fair bit of time :p
What did you glean from reactions / vote movement after you made the wagons even?
nothing much yet, which is why i’m staying here for now 😅

I'm not even sure I agree with this, but I like the thought.

i don’t think it’s a catch-all “people who aren’t voting are mafia”, i just want to have things to mull over during the night phase, and this seemed like an interesting point

Hey Seshas, I get that the bold entries are active votes, but is there any meaning to the italicised ones?
oops, this isn’t my dm with the gms.
thank you mewtini for ninja'ing me with a correct votecount because I was about to post a wrong one

Votecount (#664):
Superjolt | 3 | Ysabel (#362), M Plus 7 (#570), mewtini (#575)
Mr. Ultracool | 3 | Keldeo (#574), Trebek (#584), kokorico (#644)

10 minutes remain in day.
No changes have been made since this votecount.
 
So options are a 0-poster or someone who has not been particularly scummy

Hmm.
 
Townreads but be wary: mewtini, kokorico, Blu, MP7
Julia: Julia
Tonal memes read: kyeugh, sanderidge
Hmm: Mist, Superjolt, Ysabel, Trebek, Ultracool
?????

btw I think Mist pointing out stuff like not talking about the popularity to stop scum from PR hunting was pro-town / "helpful" (in a mostly-NAI way probably) and I'm curious why @Ysabel didn't think so.
 
i'm actually going to go to sleep now, lol. not sure if i'll be back before EoD because i have stuff from like, 12 until 3pm/EoD and it's like 4am so who knows if i'll get up significantly earlier tbh. so i'll vibe on superjolt (still irked by his reads before and the tonal difference between those and the catsposting) and hopefully make it back in time for everything
I admit my reads aren’t great, but that’s where I’m at. I’m kind of just really having a hard time reading everyone here, despite partially playing in/spectating Cats I still don’t really know anyone here that well yet and then there’s even players here that weren’t even in Cats. I was already kind of struggling with how I wanted to approach things in this game but being hit with a wave of exhaustion has just kind of killed it for me... I’ve slept a total of maybe 7 hours the past few nights combined

Kind of just looking at the thread and trying to think about things but my brain is like “nope” so I’m kind of frustrated

Trying to read but kind of skipped chunks of the thread, but uh did anyone have anything for me that I might’ve missed?

I think I don't want to be on Superjolt anymore. This reads genuine.
 
T O N A L M E M E S R E A D

anywayat first glance I like trebek bringing up the point about mafia not voting tbh
 
Sure, MP, hold me to talking more about you later. I'm also interested in what your tell on me is about.

Townreads but be wary: mewtini, kokorico, Blu, MP7
The be wary header here is because I have not seen mewtini, Blu, or MP play as mafia firsthand. And kokorico did the thing I found towny only once - I'm not going to talk about it yet because I want to see if e keeps doing it.
