[SFM] Insurgency: Treason in Jugdral — Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War and Thracia 776 FM Game Thread: Game Over (8/24) — FINALE: Bow Before Loptous — The Loptrian Empire Wins!

I think Cloned is a very null spot and a possible wolf

Cloned is in fact my top scum read now you mention it.

Alice - Alice has continued her strong start, constantly re-evaluates who to shoot between and who her suspects are. I loved her tone during the Chloe trial too as she took it all in her stride. I think that she’s amazing this game and her dedication is very much indicative of a town alice who’s had enough of us losing giant mashes like this (Or whatever it would be considered. I think Mash is the right term)


Ici - Ici early on had a good tone, I still like his Kyo/Ici interaction and attitude of trying to end it early on, so this continued from my old list. Ici has been frustrated and his reactions to Sigurd and claiming speed felt legitimate. I’m concerned about his slot because he is good but he’s the closest for me to move up the reads list.


Vul - Vul’s reactions have come across as legitimate and not forced, being frustrated with me and questioning me about my readslist before. Vul’s done a lot of analysis on different slots, re-evaluating and checking who’s doing what. I would like @Vulgard to do a readslist if possible and discuss some more. Vul, what did you think about the grand trial thing I did? Tonally who did you like/dislike during it?


Marshal - Now that I re-evaluate this slot, I can see that Marshal was frustrated with me due to me not picking up what he was saying. His attempt to cover for my slot is absolutely a pro-town move and I think I mostly just got annoyed with how he wasn’t being serious and disliked the fake townslip earlier on.


Gorta - Gorta’s the one on this level that I have the least reasoning behind. I remember someone said that Gorta is either really townie / really scummy and I have liked his reactions to the grand trial with Chloe since it shows Gorta isn’t just stagnating in his reads.


Leafia - Leafia is someone that is quiet but from what they posted I don’t see anything which stands out as scummy. This slot potentially could go down to 6 if they don’t speak more because I could see them trying to fly under the radar if they stay quiet. I’d like to see @Leafia produce more conducive reads. Their reaction to the grand trial was quite normal and didn’t stand out much.


意大利 - Claims a killer (potentially) and I don’t think it’s just a reaction test. I’m not sure what the plan from this slot is but I like it so far. I want to see some more from them before I lock them into this position as I’m tentatively putting them here. They act seriously but sometimes just disappear from nowhere.


Apprentice - Apprentice’s reactions have been normal. They were annoyed when I didn’t add them to the reads list before. Apprentice used some meta on the cloned slot and has been making reads / small points to explain their feelings. Would like a bigger list if possibleOnly thing which really annoyed me about this slot is they refused to answer my questions (which as y’all can see later led to my questions being clearly shown why they were as they were)

My 8/7 reads.
Posting these first so it’s not too overwhelming and we can discuss them throughout.

I… did think people would be asking questions about these reads since it’s the only big thing going on right now. Will start the 6’s soon. Thought to space them out so it’s not just a giant clusterfuck.

I would but it’s 2:35 AM and I should be sleeping soon. I just got online to vote and check the thread.

That’s fair.
Well, good night and hopefully you don’t get too swamped with messages when you wake up.

Good night Gorta.

I’ve been reading through the votes on Chloe’s trial. The fact that my town reads pardoned Chloe means that her pardoners spew village at this point.

Yet Ici, Derps and Apprentice didn’t pardon Chloe. I’ll have to keep a watchful eye on those slots.

alright what stupid shit happened while I was asleep

Apart from Chloe’s trial? This is pretty boring right now Ici.

As promised, I am actually reading the thread for once. Currently at #1198.

okay so Chloe is a villager now that they’re actually comfortable in thread
this is a good post

Seth is probably wolf because he’s playing like a stereotypical “helpful villager” rather than playing like Seth, and it feels like he’s going for a deliberate attempt to appease our meta.

Look at the tone of this post. If I expunged the name, it would be hard to tell that it’s a Seth post. You might even be convinced it’s something that I would post, and me and Seth are not the same at all.

Look at the tone, though. I realise we can’t expect Seth to be like “i’m obv village and have all the wolves on lock” all the time, because that’s ludicrous, but if you think about the specific way he’s breaking tone and usual Seth anticss here, it seems incredibly out of character for him. He’s acquiescing to being voted.

But think about the way he’s doing it. In the previous few posts, he tried to defend voting an obviously village LHF, but when accused by Alice he’s like “this is fine.” And I don’t think that indicates a consistent mindset- he clearly hasn’t been magically convinced he’s voting obvious village, but when he’s asked by Alice in particular, he pulls out this weird, “w!Ici cannot be bothered to go ride or die on things like v!Ici does” kind of post.

If you look at the next post, which clearly indicates that he doesn’t think Alice is a wolf- he thinks she’s misguided. So the perspective from which this kind of “oh what the hell” kind of post comes from a villager, being voted by somebody you think to be a wolf, makes no sense. He’s a wolf.

PS: also, the way he acts around Alice is pretty fucking TMI-y

PPS: Oh, also, I realise that I’m normally paranoid about voting large wagons, but wagon formation indicates pretty squarely that this isn’t wolves jumping on a mislynch.

tl;dr: i don’t like seth playing to the crowd with his whole “helpful but put-upon villager” act and i microread a post that shows he doesn’t have a consistent perspective he’s tackling the game from, so he’s probably a wolf

Centuries - Centuries has made really mild reads but has made a couple of decent questions. I want to see more content from them, but they’re not particularly scummy thus far, just a bit too in the background.


Mode - Seth has continued to be quiet, his tone keeps changing a bit which makes me unsure of it, however, I feel like he just keeps being like “Guys, I’m town, please listen” which comes off as a desperate villager who’s a bit lost in a big setup. He’s the one I’m the least certain of that’s on this rating atm. I’d like him to speak more, give solid reads and just try instead of being like ‘I’m good. Listen to me’


Sulit - I think scum sulit would be trying more than they have been. The fact that I have seen a non-serious tone for so long in his ISO just tells me that Sulit feels safe and he has nothing to worry about. I could be wrong about that but it’s been too calm to be scum.


Chloe - I think this goes for myself and everyone when I say that Chloe’s start was fairly abhorrent, which is why I targeted her with my ability due to having to pick someone anyway. She picked things up from there and took things in her own stride. I’m tentative to call her town due to the shift, but I like how things are going. I look forward to seeing more from her.


Evil_Ginger - Had some fair points earlier on such as post #501. Evil was quite non-serious earlier on as I know and I don’t think that Scum!Evil has that type of entrance which is uncaring. I like some of their posts, but others seem like they don’t care. Need a bit more actual content from this slot. Thing which erks me most is Evil’s refusal to cooperate when I was asking for high scum targets (E.g. for ToL Trial or for shooting). I’m only keeping them here because there’s already a fair few slots lower than them.


Darth - Darth is someone that I have had the pleasure to play with for quite some time so I think I can read them well. They tried to blend in a bit and make some reads but it’s nothing outside of his town meta from what I remember. I’m going to double check this, but due to it being town AI for Darth iirc, I’d be happy to say Darth is town. I want them to do more things on their own back though instead of trying to just get by.


TBE - TheBlueElixir has been doing fine, asserting some pressure but also being fairly jokey at certain points. They come across as genuine but uncaring, a similar thing to Evil but I think that in general, TBE has been more townie than Evil.


CRich - Biggest problem with this slot is that they’re saying “(X) has acted like (Y)” instead of analysing things which have gone on this game, which makes me think they might have possibly ignored the whole Chloe thing on purpose. They ask some questions, make some shallow reads. I’d like for them to actually read more of the thread instead of just (for example) them comparing me to the ToS game but I can see they’re at least trying to contribute like this.


Here’s my 6’s.

so update: it appears yidali’s existence has activated a cursed translation module, so now if I see anything that happens to be a word in different language, it’ll be translated into english

i’m going to disable this soon enough but for now the joke is not old so
