vul was also such an obvious wolf

My progression was wack. I called people town, then I called them wolves 4 posts later. I voted LHF all the time without any regard for meta. I pushed Andrej for being a dumbass even though newbscum would never do what he did.

It was so bad.

[Marshal]

you kind of lucked out being a godfather with the greencheck tbh

@Marshal

but like how were we all not immediately outted d1

If only I’d been a back-up instead of Skimtator™.

@Marshal

well you see
i was a bit too focused on the whole Mount Doom thing

[Marshal]

I think your play was good because you put in a lot of effort and when you got into towncore you did damage

You made a lot of posts in main thread and wolfchat and were a generally good presence

and a cohesive team of wolves and a very not cohesive team of villagers ended up meaning the only wolf deaths were from modkills or individual villager KP

[Vulgard]

@Vulgard

If wolves don’t have a plan then Boss and Squid were TMIng each other and they’re both scum. That’s the simplest read I have.

/vote Squid

@Vulgard

Also why are two people dead what happened.

@Vulgard

/vote Mordor

I skimmed these 1200 posts and I barely saw any meaningful content. It felt like people were just shitposting in the thread and discusing nothing substantial.

Especially Ginger and Marshal were being shitposters extraordinaire. Ginger at least tried to make reads in his own weird way that completely baffles me. Marshal was just… not doing anything and defending every single post people scumread him for. It feels like he’s overly paranoid of being suspected - he’s not even being pushed by multiple people or anything. They could easily both be scum doing scum theater.

Simon at least tries to contribute mechanics-wise, although I’m keeping a close eye on him because I’d like to see some reads. His perspective feels third-person if that makes sense - like he’s not invested in the game, which I typically read as scummy. It could just be his playstyle, but I still get pinged the wrong way by his style of posting. Potential scum here.

Tele is… I’m not sure. I know I said before that if she’s really scummy to me D1, she’s probably town, but I keep watching her post and I’m not sure if it comes from town anymore. I wouldn’t lynch this today but I think Tele is a good check.

Boss’s reads aren’t very good but at least he posted actual reads in the ‘people shitpost for 1200 posts’ message flood. If he was scum he wouldn’t feel the need to do this because of the threadstate, so I’m townreading Boss for it.

I don’t like Alice seeing Boss as scummy despite that fact. I’m generally wary of people I don’t meld with whatsoever because it feels like their logic comes from a non-town place. Also, scumreading Solic seems… a little easy? I read Solic as scum as well but I have a bad feeling about what her scumreads are. They don’t feel very exploratory - people have already read Marshal as scum and the same thing applies to Boss & Solic. I expected Alice to focus on other people sooner.

Admittedly she’s doing that right now so I’m watching closely. Who knows, maybe she realized the same thing about her play that I did.

Max is super town based on his posting so far and I would place him in the towncore if we establish one.

Arete/Alice is interesting and feels TvS to me. It has to be resolved sooner or later. It can’t be SvS because their interactions don’t feel orchestrated, so they’re either TvT or TvS. I’m leaning TvS right now.

@Vulgard

Oh, STB posted a readlist.
It’s… well, what I would expect from a newer player (though I’m not actually sure if STB is new.) The lack of confidence is something I would normally read as scummy but if you’re a new player it can easily happen as town - I know that was the case with me.

I have way too many townreads. 2+ scum are in my townreads and I’m trying to figure out which ones.

Like, what the fuck are these posts.

[Vulgard]

“Boss and Squid are townreading each other, so they must be scum.”

[Vulgard]

Also Vulgard: “Boss is town and Alice is scum for scumreading him.”

What.

[Jane]

The Shire has been lynched!

They were:

The Shire

Not Mount Doom reeee

[Marshal]

I was always on team mordor just because it was funny and I wanted to pocket hippo

like I made a bunch of posts on why I thought mordor was bad d1 mechanically and then proceeded to hardpush for mordor only for a meme

[Icibalus]

mount doom was also going to be funny but it would also fuck over wolves

[Marshal]

I just hard defended all of the flipped wolves and hardpushed all of the flipped villagers and nobody really paid attention to me because I was “self resolving” with a fucking doublevote

[Icibalus]

i was excited to do a new kind of VCA!

[Marshal]

yeah I kind of realized that it would actually be really bad for us

[Jane]

Is everyone going to ignore my bad CL rework?

[Marshal]

I was proud of my play in LoTRFM at EoD1

I just kept shoving a shitty preflip down everyone’s throats at 5am on a school night and ended up getting 2 villagers killed

[Vulgard]

@Vulgard

alice/fk/ginger scum (1-2 scum) or stb/andrej (1-2 scum)

Ah, yes, the classic "I don’t read people individually, I put them in groups so I can lynch town then “re-evaluate” to other town.

@Vulgard

you sure you’re townreading everyone in hja/stb/kitten/ginger/alice?
that’s where my mind is at right now though I think stb is town based on his posting

I did this throughout d2.

@Vulgard

gun-to-head i would say my PoE is something like universal/andrej/hja/dat/alice(?)/ginger(?)/hippo maybe?

i still don’t trust the fact Hja hammered there and i will probably continue not to trust it unless she either flips or uses her super powerful empowered hammer ability whatever it is (if she’s town)

also ici has been underwhelming so he probably should be in the PoE as well

1 scum
Everyone else town.
“Gun-to-head PoE.”

Get outta there.

[Marshal]

it’s kind of cool in theory but does not solve any of the outstanding current problems with cult and is an addition that might be cool but isn’t necessary

[Vulgard]

Current problem with Cult is that it really struggles early game.

[Vulgard]

Once it gets going, it works fine. It just has to get going.
