[FoL] Forum of Lies 29 - OVER (9/18) - CULT FOOL WIN

@Centuries 147?

alright, I re-read some people in my nullzone overnight to try to sort them, I went roughly least posts -> most posts to sort them so that I could do more but that did mean I didnā€™t get to the highposters

going to just post what I came up with and then take a look at night stuff

Appel

Summary

This one is like ā€¦ my gut is telling me town but my brain is telling me scum, and Iā€™m not sure why my gut is saying that

also she has like five posts, which makes things harder

the thing thatā€™s pinging me about her mainly is her hedginess, like she has a lot of posts like

which are super hedgy and not really drawing any conclusions, which is also something sheā€™s done in her scum games (e.g. SF V)

tl;dr slight scumlean but I need more than 5 posts to read her

Amelia

Summary

Literally all I have to say about this slot is ā€˜has activity tells and isnā€™t being active,ā€™ like, none of her posts are actually game-related

closest thing I found to a game-related post is this one:

which ā€¦ vaguely feels like itā€™s trying too hard to look comfortable? I guess?

honestly Iā€™m just going to hope that someone mechresolves her ĀÆ_(惄)_/ĀÆ

Wazza

Summary

I was concerned a bit at first because posts like

felt out of place, like, why would that be the only thing you comment on

but after reading his Chloe analysis Iā€™m a lot more comfortable with him being town

second quote goes to the Isopost, itā€™s long so Iā€™m not going to post the whole thing

I think Wazza having a serious push at this point is a good look for him since heā€™s not trying to go UTR, I also like the depth of analysis in the Isopost (Wazza is capable of having real pushes as a wolf, but speaking as someone whoā€™s been on the receiving end of those pushes he basically just picks one thing and tunneltunneltunnels rather than actually trying to analyze)

I also thought this comment in particular was a weirdly good look, like, if scum is paying any attention to the game at all they definitely caught Leafiaā€™s super obvious Priest softs

Overall I think Wazza is probably town

Soulshade

Summary

mrrrr

I donā€™t like any of his posts

but I think they probably come from town?

like I donā€™t want to clear him off the scumclaim, in my experience scum are more likely to claim scum because wHy WoUlD sCuM cLaIm ScUm, but posts like

are combative/aggressive in ways that donā€™t normally come from scum

slight townlean for now

would like to see some actual takes from him

Calculus

Summary

This one is going to be short because Iā€™m running out of time + I already commented on him a bit

a thing that I realized is that Iā€™m pretty sure this post:

came after people had already commented on how it was kind of wolfy that he had nothing but scumreads (not positive on this and if Iā€™m wrong that negates the read)

Iā€™m inclined to think that scum in that situation would change what they were doing rather than continuing to have nothing but scumreads

the ā€˜find scum donā€™t make townreadsā€™ approach is fairly common among newer/less experienced players, and some sites do it a lot more, I donā€™t think itā€™s intrinsically wolfy if theyā€™re not familiar with towncore + PoE based strategies

also the priest hardclaiming on D1 and dying N1 with no protection is certainly a thing

ā€¦Leafia?
Iā€™m guessing it was a protective dodge.
Also, weā€™re probably in a Cult game judging by KP alone.

Pretty sure most people here protect the stronger players over d1 hardclaims? I dunno.
I kinda feel like this is the type of kill an attempted dodger makes.

Didnā€™t re-eval kat overnight? I did and I kinda feel like they canā€™t be groupscum at least. They feel alone in the thread.
Neutral is not off the table.

What made you change your mind on kat

/vote Vulgard

until further notice

This is literally the opposite of the read you had yesterday

which was also one of the strongest reads you had

2 Likes

of course

also

I may be less active during the first half of the day

I re-read their posts, and while I still find the instant OMGUS super annoying, it probably doesnā€™t come from groupscum. Didnā€™t see anyone else defending kat or even trying to defend kat, which was weird, too.

I could see it from a neutral annoyed about me scumreading them, but I donā€™t think groupscum!kat does it in their position. I still donā€™t think katā€™s a villager, but I think them being groupscum is less likely.

Here are my logs from last night - without my role/actions, and a few other things i only wanted to out if i died.

Allies w Cent: gorta feels townie / genuinely solvey, but not super present. Very similar to sfol62 tbh. Gave us a pool of people he might have SFā€™d. Centuries didnt contribute a ton but I still V read him. Ask them for the explanations for my reads - paraphrased. And if Vul flips scum, scumbuds could be [redacted] (just removed these since Vul is still alive).

I have many questions. I thought you were townreading me, why do you want to yeet me now? The way this is phrased suggests you view me as dead in the water.
