There are an abundance of other easy mislynches and LHF, like it would be easy to push on Derps/My slot or the Dat/Amelia slot, or TBE (unless any of these are scum)
Gorta has expressed distrust in everybody everything I do on multiple occasions (I actually don’t think any were in this game, but in… basically every other game I’ve played with him), I could see him vetoing a Marshkatze kill.
Just from skimming half of FoL28:
Could find more examples of this.
I might be a little bit confirmation-biased here because I really don’t like a lot of Derps’ posting, but I think this is a plausible world.
atp it’s basically 5v2 mountainous so im not really clearing for bussing at this stage
I think some interactions aren’t w/w but pushing someone today does not mean you are never w/w
idk if you would i don’t have a grasp on your range
but I’m pretty sure arete wouldn’t get so tilted (not even in a performative or big way, just the sheer passive-agressiveness of their posts towards you and kyo) at a wolfbuddy
I feel vaguely weird about the fact that it’s ~identical to Marshal and orange’s readlist but hopefully that means we’re all right rather than … not that
Town
Marshalkat - I feel like I’ve been mindmelding with a lot of Marshalkat’s takes this game, I think most of the “”“cases”"" against them are actively bad (‘Marshalkat softed JoaT and only scum do PR cover’) and that overall they haven’t really been agenda-y
orangelit - A lot of their reads feel like not the sort of reads orange would come up with if he were coming from a position of TMI (looking specifically at the Nappy PFP read here) and honestly I think orange plays more of D1 as scum. This is slightly lower than Marshal because I do have some tinfoil about some of their pushes feeling less alignment-related and more policy-y (which kind of reminds me of MHA Mafia)
DerpsGorta - this is honestly in part so high because I don’t think they would be playing this aggressively terribly as scum, like, I think Derps at least is smart enough to say things like ‘“Arete is acting differently from a game where they were scum” is not an argument for them being scum.’ Also this is pre-flippy but I don’t think Gorta is gutsy enough to call a correct case on his partner ‘piss poor’ as scum (and ?probably? not gutsy enough to say that to an incorrect case, for that matter?) Biggest question mark from this slot is Derps … trying to CFD someone he didn’t scumread … and then not explaining it when asked
DatWazza - I’m not really a fan of the early posting of either member of this slot, I think I’ve already explained why, Dat’s posting has gotten a little better since then. Amelia hasn’t done anything egregiously bad although I would like it if she actually drew some conclusions rather than just asking questions.
TBE - honestly the biggest issue I have with this slot is that they haven’t made any serious pushes, like, when I asked if people could remember their pushes no one could (like, I can remember most of their readlist but they haven’t actually been pushing any of the reads on it). From a player of TBE’s experience level this is kind of a Classic Scumtell™ (and notably his one completed scum game was similar) – like, for his towngames I can usually think of at least one push he made, even if it was wrong.
in Marblelympics people weren’t listening to what I was saying (either the correct things, like ‘112 is obviously spewed town,’ or the less correct things, like ‘Marshal wolf’) (for the record I’m more confident on Kyo than I was on Marshal)
whereas here, people aren’t listening to what I’m saying, then based on their own blatant misinterpretation, which was avoidable if they had actually paid attention to any of my points, they’re insulting me
also this is slightly dishonest in general because your role specifically had to live to end of the game to win so that is slightly misleading to say you bussed every minion
I can tell your alignment from Marshals, so not really. If Marshal is a towny then so are you no questions asked and if Marshal is scum then so are you. What’s the point in discrediting the whole slot when I can trust Marshal’s posts better? I won’t use you as a way to primarily scum read the slot.
I do, except my gut is pretty decent and I have been able to accurately say that there is a wolf in pairs before. I could be wrong, but this is a feeling I have had for a while now.
