EFoL 4&3/4 - Game Thread - Day 5 (5/16) - The Blue Dragon and Scorned are victorious!

Taking note that this PoE looks really bad from the perspective of my reads.

And this towncore looks full of wolves. But that’s if I assume my reads are the metric by which I should judge other people’s assessments, and they are not. My reads in Morphogenetic were almost directly opposed to my partner’s, and my partner was correct in places where I wasn’t.

It’s funny that people say I’m more confident as mafia. I’ve been accused of being hedgy as a wolf in the past, so I go in the other direction, and now confidence is suspicious.

I guess I’m always a wolf.

I think PKR looks better when I re-read him.
Considering PKR town.

I’m kinda in the same boat as well. I don’t despise CRich’s ISO but there are some questionable posts in there. We also have crucial differences of opinion.

Very towny-looking read.

Being hedgy isn’t the same as being unconfident
Hedginess usually comes from being unassertive rather than being unconfident, and that’s a trap newer wolves usually fall into in my experience

Oh.
One less person to read?

I can vouch that you were effectively the polar opposite of hedgy in Countries

That’s actually a very clever way of putting it.

I enter Soul’s ISO and the first thing I see is a Prince claim.

can I say that this is just a pure post with a thought that makes complete sense from V!Vulgard

I veto clearing Eli. Eli’s ISO has many more “nothing” posts than “content” posts, and that is their wolf tell regardless of their postcount.
They are more than capable of creating content. Check out their Countries ISO. They were town and had content. I wasn’t opposed to wagoning them in that game only because I was a wolf.

If they are a villager, they haven’t shown it yet, is my point. I don’t think they are lock mafia. I just don’t think townreads on them are warranted at this stage.

Thank you.

I can’t read this post no matter how hard I try.

This is a thought I also had, independently. A good sign for Shurian.

I firmly believe this combination of posts makes Shurian “just a villager.” I don’t see Shurian doing this “I know ALL YOUR ROLES, FOOLS” shtick as mafia. It’s not within their player profile. The tone in these messages also screams village to me.

Shurian’s having fun with the game.
Another good sign.

I actually think this post suggests the opposite of TMI, despite what it says.
It’s too playful to be a wolf meme.

Is this what people hated so much? Even when I explain the read, it all boils down to my instinct anyway. My analysis is only a justification for other people and not myself.

Which is why I don’t really see the point of doing it, but after Morphogenetic, I probably should at least try?

  1. this post is effectively an example post of exactly how min didn’t make reads in Countries. In countries, they felt a lot more loose, throwing out gut takes and reads with little to no elaboration and a focus on rounding out their solve. This is the type of takes Min made when they were obvtowning in GM3.

  2. All of Min’s thought processes in these posts track. They make sense in the thread context they were written in, they make sense in the thoughts they push forward. Their treatment of Eli here makes total sense as a continuation for how they treated Eli in Morphogenetics (as someone who isn’t ever towny). Especially the desire to hide a part of the post from Eli is a touch that feels a lot more likely to come from a villager braindumping than a wolf putting forth a facade.

I feel like this post is effectively representative of what I like about Min’s ISO.

Moving PKR and Shurian to the townzone.

Town:

Nightingale
eevee
PKR
Shurian
Amelia
Mafia Mercenary Derps

Main mafia focus:

min (dependent on what Nightingale tells me)
CRichard
Jane
Potentially add Geyde here later on

It is a very towny post now that I’m reading it.
Fine, I guess min can be my little pogchamp town.

Based VVillage:

Nightingale

PKR
Shurian
Vulgard
Amelia
min
Mafia Mercenary Derps

I can’t wait for someone to bring up the fact Amelia seems to be here for no reason. And that is because she is. It’s a purely instinctual read like most of them.

Mostly agree although I have little to no experience with Eevee so I find it hard to evaluate them
Jane and Geyde are the sort of people who I definitely want to monitor but are pretty bad to gun for on N1/D2

I ignored the Prince claim in Soulshade. I also think Wazza ?might? be town?
