katze catches up v3 or something: is anyone even here edition
i dont think thats trying to solve
okay if we assume youāre the NK we can just lynch you
why should we assume appel is the NK
do you have any reason to think this other than what napoleon said?
ātheyre wolf, town, or NKā isnāt solving
i cant tell if i should see something in this interaction or not
i can agree with that assessment
when i ISOed them during N1 i didnāt think they were likely starting groupscum
i donāt think arete has been pushing more agenda on D2, theyre not someone i think has high convert equity even if theyāre a player who makes for a good convert as evidenced by fol24
we have a literal self resolving neut claim, we can find out which neut is fake in scumneut!CRich worls
there is a guaranteed nk/groupscum in intensify/crich/seth and one has a āim neither of those thingsā buttons and one is playing from a standpoint where i likely believe their claim
which just leaves crich
VULGOD ILY
i mean in ToL hes not unfamiliar with the concept and powerwolfs fairly well
but this isnāt ToL and i donāt know if itād apply 1:1, if hes groupscum then he hard bussed crich
is this a serious way of reading arete
im not really responding to this individual read
but my expert opinion is telling me vulgard is town
i scrolled down like 3 posts and i found my take is very hot /s
i think if it comes down to a wolf we cant find, maybe? but i think their ISO is pretty blatantly from an alch pov
i mean if worst comes to worst i die tonight to it if its a frostweaver game (which would mean derps was healed n1)
iād rather not die for reasons ill explain in allies chat
me and her would become gaysons and then one of us would die probably
you are correct in your implication
ā¦that is a joke you are responding to. a very obvious joke.
have you seen me in any game ever?
which is why i kind of think i was bled by a frostweaver since im kind of unlikely to be healed tonight; its just free KP
groupscum maybe? but thatād be quite a lolbleed
i mean anstreim did a RT that made them contradict themselves multiple times
i also RTed them and got even worse contradictions but at that time they were basically guaranteed nontown so i donāt think i deserve towncred for it
in terms of D1 then arete probably, yeah
id say my read on crich + my interactions with him D2 would probably give you a decent indication that iām not a wolf but a lot of my d2 interactions with him were after he was basically outted so a world where im groupscum bussing him isnāt a super unreasonable one to believe weāre in
but iād be a bit offended if you think iād let him start off D2 with ālol, my D1 was a RTā after how ive played groupscum in other games
hell, like i said to anstreim before, iām generally attempting to do all of the nightplans and prevent people from being stupid in scumchat. RM4 scumchat is a decent example of this, when im not joking around im pretty productive. thereās a link to it in my ISO if you care to look through it, look for the post quoted by wazza
How is posting reads regarding peoples alignments and putting out input about ideas being presented not solving? Itās contributing and generally is going towards solving the game.
I am not the only one that thinks Appel has NK equity. Most of my reads are largely gut reads and itās hard to put them into words, but I think itās entirely possible.
That was me admitting that I might have made my initial read with a bit of haste and got a bad result due to being tired. I can be wrong and sometimes I am. There are also times that I am a bit obsessive and go too far down a tunnel. Do you get what I mean? I was paranoid and focused on a potential cult in bastard++ and it took me a bit to calm down and get out of that paranoia, but when I did it allowed me to focus on other elements of the game.
Completely neutral assessment at first (orange). A bit of a strange angle to approach this from, though. I donāt think itās something a wolf would normally use to inform their read, which means itās strange that katze points this out. If katze is a wolf, they used a veryā¦ unique thought here, which I donāt think they would have as scum.
Why do I think itās a unique thought? Because I believe that 99% of wolves wouldnāt care about CRichardās definition of a redcheck here. They would use something else to push him on / fabricate a read about. This shows a willingness to delve deep into CRichās mindset at a level which doesnāt seem necessary to consider as a wolf.
Neutral assessment, meaning both alignments could write this. Itās true, though. I agree with it.
Unnecessary to mention. Not sure if alignment indicative.
I think the consideration of two worlds (CRich scum / CRich town) is a good look. It displays a willingness to accept both instead of starting with a conclusion and running through his ISO then. That would be a read based on a preconceived notion, which comes from scum far more frequently than it does from town.
I really like this whole paragraph. The thought process is pretty transparent. You could interpret this as extreme hedging, but I think katze would be far more self-aware about this as scum. You look at this post as scum and go āI take no stances here, I meander and go back and forth, I should stop and decide what the read is.ā A wolf on katzeās level definitely considers this. But I donāt think the katze in this game cares about it at all. Not only is the thought process transparent, the read here also considers multiple worlds and aspects. I definitely agree with the assessment, I think itās not easy to distinguish between town!CRichard getting angry over suspicion and scum!CRichard doing the exact same thing, especially when we donāt have any meta evidence. All we can do is consider multiple worlds, which is what katze is doing here.
I also think this paragraph happens to show how much katze cares about their read. I think that they wouldnāt care as much as a wolf, and they would probably use fewer words to talk about it instead of delving so deep. Which is why I believe there is a distinct solvey motivation here, instead of āI have to talk about this so I look like Iām productiveā motivation.
They even went and looked up a game to inform their read, considered it, then actually started to lean town on CRich despite the thread consensus, but they are also uncertainā¦ darn, there is so much about this read I like. I believe the thought process wholeheartedly.
I think I donāt need to go into any other parts of that post. The read started out neutral, but once katze got into the āmeatā of it, they showed a distinctly villagery thought process with no rigid thinking whatsoever. They think something, go there, go back, evaluate, consider and flip, consider and flip. Thereās no agenda whatsoever. Itās just katze doing a solving thing.
And this little snippet made me chuckle. It also suggests that katze doesnāt actually care about what this post looks like to other people. Which is consistent with the impression I get from it. They arenāt focused on making a good-looking wallpost, they are focused on trying to resolve CRich based on what they know, with 0 TMI and 0 agenda, using every tool they have available in their town arsenal. Yeah. This is near-certainly town.
And by the way, Iām uncertain about CRich as well, although I believe that the RT thing does make me put him at the bottom of the PoE because of how rigid it felt.
Iām having a Seth moment where Iām completely confident about my read before Iām done with what I originally planned to do. I donāt want to force myself to verbalize my thoughts about everything else katze has written, I just think they are definitely town based on this d2 read.
