I have to be honest, if I am lynched then I want Appel to be gotten rid of afterwards at any cost.
If Appel is lynched instead of me, then I will fight against Gorta to the death if game is not over.
I kinda just had something irl happen which has knocked me somewhat but I am gonna keep going.
I’m fairly sure I replaced in 3 hours before EoD 2 or so, just as my school was starting. Therefore I won’t count that.
D3
At the start of D3, I did a catch-up wallpost and decided at one point that it was becoming too long and time consuming, so I wanted to talk with people in real time like Kat did in WYM. I mostly concluded that Arete was a slight townlean, I don’t remember if I made any other reads. Maintenance happened, wallpost was lost. Very bleh. It killed my WiM a considerable amount, but I got back up after a while.
This is pretty much where I start playing. I had a question about their read on Arete iirc, which was lost with the other posts after maintenance. My primary goal was to question people and put pressure if anyone seemed suspicious, and start solving from there.
I originally thought Cloned was town here, because as a person who has played with Cloned before, this is drastically different from their scumplay. I became less confident in the read when I looked at their reasoning again and found a hole in their thought process, but let it be because school was starting.
That never happened, now did it?
Dat had lots of good looks from his slot, but I had found Birb’s serious attitude at the beginning slightly off putting, so I wanted to focus on him more. I talked about him with Arete for a bit while I was in school, but the day ended and he died before I could talk to him more.
D4
At the start of D4, I basically concluded that Arete was probably town and Seth was town because lolmeta.
Not gonna lie, I originally did think he reminded me of Whysper in WYM, but really wanted to question him more. I hadn’t formed a read on him at that point. Since Light wasn’t online, I went on to do NKA.
When Light came back online, I was pretty surprised to see how easily he cleared me supposedly because of tone. So I questioned him a bit more.
D4 PoE. I hadn’t seen anything noteworthy which would pull them out of it, and I had Seth & Arete as townleans/-reads. After that, I talked with Arete about Light’s alignment (and seeing Arete’s conflicted thought process strengthened my read on them even further) and about Derps being just a gamble.
I pinged Gorta before going to work on this post
And I’m not even gonna lie, I was just purely having fun with this. Colours are fun, and I still didn’t have a definite read, but he looked towny enough with his tone and actions. However, I was feeling uncomfortable with the fact that my PoE was so wide and containing people I didn’t have a proper read on, so I wanted to question and just really focus on Cloned/Gorta with the remaining time I had. Questioning ensues.
This was a bad look for Gorta, so I questioned them even more, but at that point Light came back and I started looking at his answers while there were about ~15 minutes left.
At that point, Cloned made this post which made me a bit panicked because even though my PoE was wide, having my second highest townread die to a triplevote was definitely something I did not want. So I decided to go with the safest choice that Cloned had said they’d be willing to vote
Then more questioning Light & Gorta
Thoughts go brr
Cloned started doing weird things and it did not help that we had 7 minutes left
Gorta and Cloned had both done weird stuff so I was actually fairly confident Light was going to flip town, but as they self-pres’d onto Arete, my mind went “nope”
Gorta and I have drastically different timezones, so my decision to focus on talking to people in real time wasn’t probably for the best. That post made me remember what I’ve seen from him this far, and they aren’t good looks. I really gotta ISO him.
Eli on Gorta, in SFoL 64 (there are a couple more results that come up when you search, but I checked and he isn’t saying anything about Gorta, just quoting a bunch of posts one of which mentions Gorta in passing)
I never said that Arete was lock scum, but I did talk about how it’s possible for Arete/Light to be a team. It also seems you ignored every other piece of information I put in my posts on Arete and why I thought there is potential.
I wouldn’t be opposed if it didn’t put us in a worse spot unless Lemon somehow magically gets confirmed.
