I feel like this might have been a joke post
But also i feel like there's some truth behind every joke and I just got pinged by this
So can you tell me the rationale behind this post?I think my ratio of being right to wrong is actually close to as good as yours, it's just when i'm wrong i'm a lot louder about it
also you are either a wolf or a PR, nowhere in between
There's no inquisitiveness in your posts at all

when i see hally in the playerlist of a non post cap game
I'm going to apologize for this one in advance but I hope you'll all humor me for a little while. This is a champs level game after all and I can't help but try and post in a way to properly honor the occasion. Who knows when I'll be back in this situation again.
I don't think it's a secret for most of you that my track record in reading Hally has been rather … well … awful thus far in our games. I did have one specific game where I recognized Hally was a villager and confidently (and happily!) let the world know. They flipped wolf. After our Syndicate game together and then Anni (both of which saw me find Hally's eod wolfy and press there) I wanted to make a concentrated effort to finally read that slot correctly.
I spent some time today combing through recent-ish games this year of Hally's. The wolf game on the Org website, the Vig game over on the Syndicate one, and all sorts of mashes/smaller games through MU as well. Rocks fall, Anni, Homestuck, CoV, etc. You get the picture. All in all there were 16 different games I pulled isos from. I then went and ran through the isos extracting all the day one posts from the first half of the day, labeled them as W or V, and ran them through a bit of a homemade database that would do a few different things for me. One of the things was to make a word cloud which would count the number of times each word was used in these isos and make the word larger the more frequently it was used. For example:
Anyways, I separated the wolf isos from the villa isos and then removed things like articles (a, the, in, an, etc) as well as player names as those aren't really super relevant to our investigation and cross referenced them to see if anything word usage stood out as alignment indicative in the top 10 most common words. While there were small word choices favored it didn't seem super significant. What WAS significant were two other things:
One: While specific word choices weren't very telling I did notice a definitely trend of elegance in the wolf isos. The words may change but the idea remained the same. In wolf ISOs Hally had a habit of using larger, more elegant words whereas in the villa ISOs Hally just talked more casually. I'll call these Posts Exceedingly Elegant as we continue.
Two: Villager isos were much more full of observational posts rather than inquisitive ones. The wolf iso was full of open ended questions requesting elaboration. Not just directly to a specific player but also towards the thread at large asking if it saw what Hally was seeing. Meanwhile the villager iso was full of more pointed statement. It was telling the thread what Hally was seeing and making sure everyone understood. The village iso had a higher frequency – by a significant margin – of Posts Of Observation.
Again, I really want to get this right so I didn't stop there. Science isn't science until you write it down after all. I went ahead and charted the percentage of posts as a villager and as a wolf for both posts containing an elegant word and posts making observations. It's a bit crude but here's the quick jot down I made to visualize it:
So I wanted to see how this one was shaping up. Remember, these were all taken from the first half of day one isos which we've made it past here. I went ahead and ran through Hally's iso from this game, plotted the elegance and observational percentages on the chart, and ran the following equation to try and determine the exact percentage chance Hally has at being a wolf:
(Posts Exceedingly Elegant as a wolf)(Posts Exceedingly Elegant here) + (Posts of Observation as a villager)(Posts of Observation here) = the mathematical chance of Hally being a villager here (do 1-this for wolf obv).
Which looks something like this:
(Posts Exceedingly Elegant as a wolf)(Posts Exceedingly Elegant here) + (Posts of Observation as a villager)(Posts of Observation here)
Or written differently

At least one has to be the correct one.

I'm not really sure how to answer this.

Get a PhD or some $%#! like that. I'd think you'd want to know more but most of what else I have to say I almost guarantee people would like to unhear once they hear it.
Don't think the question is necessarily either/or, but in my case it happens to be just the former.

Ihow does this image make you feel?

whoops?
A solid no.
whoops?
oh yes
whoops?
I don't exactly like the question because it says "school" and will proceed to ignore it - I've studied a lot more outside of school than I have inside it.
I personally enjoy a lot of subjects - I'd say Psychology (funnily enough), Philosophy, and Bioengineering are definitely what I've enjoyed immersing myself in the most.
(I've taken only one of those in school.)

What is your favorite description someone else has said of you?
what kind of questions could we ask to make this AMA less have less boring answers (no offense, i get not wanting to be too open with certain things and relate but you probably need to provide a few topics in that case)

What is something which particularly fascinates you about:
- Psychology
- Philosophy
- Bioengineering
Or alternatively, what is something about each subject which you think is underrated and/or more people should know about?

$%#!posting is the pinnacle of forum mafia play.
Drunk posting is possibly just as good.
Tryharding when you don't feel like tryharding helps no one.
whoops?
I legit don't have anything to say unprompted.
Granted, this is a prompt, but it's also not exactly a topic-specific prompt.
whoops?
Part of the draw with Psychology is probably what draws me to Mafia as well - I enjoy delving into how people think and why they do what they do.
With Philosophy, I suspect it's just how it makes me think about hard questions and it's helped me build my worldview where before I didn't realize I was lacking a cohesive one, and I enjoy continuing to do so.
Bioengineering is a hard one - it's just a topic I have passion for, I suppose. I'm inclined towards genetic engineering specifically - the potential for permanent human improvement and customization really intrigues me and I'd like to see how far we can push $%#!.
whoops?
I really barely interact with people irl lmao.

What alignment would win in a game of 15 Twice Shrunks, and why? How would the game go? Any spicy happenings?

bruh
I mean I'm legally obligated to ask a question so
have you actually eaten any socks?
What are your thoughts on among us? (In general or in relation to mafia)
Also idt i saw this in the thread so
favorite/least favorite role
What do you think about iowa?
Do you have any advice for how to get good reads?
c4 seems to have answered it for you.
My wolfplay is perhaps funnily enough designed to absolutely wreck my townplay - which makes sense, I suppose.
whoops?
Look, the bet was I will attempt to eat a sock.
None of it was swallowed, but I sure did chew on it lmao.
For like 5 seconds.
whoops?
Among Us is fine, don’t really think it’s all that comparable to mafia and it annoys me to hell when people try to do such without recognizing how different they are.
Don’t have a favorite role, per se, but I tend to enjoy anything that gives me kp with less restrictions.
Least favorite is interesting, I haven’t run across a role I would have preferred to not rand. Or at least, one I can name on the top of my head.
Iowa - don’t know much besides its capital, location, and the type of grass they have in the Midwest.
On getting good reads,
