my read on cloned is ‘literally never a wolf even before the nightkill’
if I’m wrong then dead chat is probably flaming me right now for not reevaluating when I’m still alive but like … all the reasons I’ve had for village reading him still apply, Light’s treatment of him and Wazza makes no sense if he’s a wolf, he’s also the only person really continuing to solve today despite the fact that if he’s scum he’s effectively already won
I think the nightkill (and more broadly, the nightkills this game in general) are more likely to come from you than from Gorta because for lack of a better way to phrase it Gorta makes very boring nightkills and the nightkills have not been boring
like, to explain what I mean, when Gorta was deciding non-PR-related nightkills in SFoL 64 he basically just suggested or ‘kill the town leaders/consensus townies/SPKs’ (or made PR-related kills
(n.b. these aren’t the kills that ended up happening but this is to give an idea of his thought process)
the nightkills this game have been solidly weird, like, Leafia was not consensus V, Lemon was literally a neut claim, and while I can speculate as to how those kills might have benefitted scum I don’t think Gorta really considers making those nightkills in the first place as scum – the Lemon kill in particular was, like, objectively the best kill for scum since it keeps cloned + me alive so he can tunnel me while also leaving {whichever one of you two is town} alive so that even if cloned reevaluates I still have a good chance of “picking wrong”, but I don’t think the possibility of killing the neut would even occur to Gorta. Maybe I’m not giving him enough credit, but.
whereas I know this is within your wolfrange, like, I can look at how you chose kills in Watch Your Mouth to see that you didn’t always just kill off the town leaders/consensus villagers but instead were much more creative with your nightkills
the obvious thing that’s making me slightly hesitant is that I’m still alive even though I’ve been tunnelling you, but I think that makes sense when considering the fact that cloned is tunnelled on me and Gorta has been Strongly Considering me, so leaving me alive in the hopes that I get miscuddled makes sense even if I’m right
