[FM] Ritual Mafia IV -- Day 4 (7/16) -- Heretics and Traitor Win!

i think the best thing for me to do would be to read both ISOs and compare them, so actually this entire tangent was entirely pointless and I hereby offer to pay reparations for the 2 minutes of threadtime this occupied.

but they were an NK there

i donā€™t think NK and groupscum play super alike

maybe NK and Traitor but Traitor still has 3 people they donā€™t want to have killed

itā€™s more of a tonal read and how arete approaches the thread rather than particular actions within the thred

If it were specifically how Arete acts around other people, Iā€™d agree with you in saying that LW and NK games arenā€™t valid there, but I think itā€™s something more generic to the wolf allignment.

I believe Arete is a V as by doing a tone of ISOing, it donā€™t think it is possible for them to be anything other than a blood mage.

I think areteā€™s town or lost wolf

Most likely the former

hilariously i think theyā€™re almost never LW but likely a wolf

are you talking about your own ISOing or Areteā€™s presumed ISOs this game?

Differing peopleā€™s ISOs + Areteā€™s ISO

okay so I have one final really wAcKy tinfoil read thatā€™s really just borne of paranoia, which is that Vulgard is wolf and heā€™s got the thread on lockdown in favour of wolves which is why, even when active, this thread has felt kind ofā€¦

Okay, Iā€™m straying into metaphors, but you know that vaguely unpleasant smell thatā€™s not quite the new book smell but is simmilar that books get after a while?

The tone of the thread feels like that to me.

Summary

lolconversionreads but Sethā€™s activity has died down a lot since the Kyo ritual

also he was posting in-thread shortly before the ritual then vanished

Itā€™s really founded on no evidence and I donā€™t intend to act upon it in the slightest until later, but itā€™s just the feeling Iā€™m getting, possibly because Iā€™m preemptively trying to avoid that phase of my villageplay where I am 100% aware that I have a big hole in my reads thatā€™s going to lose the game for me eventually but I kind of just forget about it and end up screwing over my own team, by finding hero shots.

Summary

i still think arete is a wolf

I mean I read that if Vulgard is Scum they are most likely Seer, as Vulgard was occed n1 and there were no deaths

That comma was important and definitely worth the quickedit.

I donā€™t want to go there today because lolconversionreads

but itā€™s :eyes: enough that Iā€™m keeping an eye on it

I do not give a damn about the roles of the wolves unless weā€™re in a game where wolf role KP is a thing.

we kinda do need to care about the role of wolves with their special abilities.

This is seer btw
