@everyone
If anyone has a redcheck, now is the time to out it.
Alright. So town do scummy shit all the time.
Do you see a world where Jane isnāt just a Noble who fucked up?
Or a world where Mary isnāt just an Alchemist who fucked up?
Where would you look outside of them? What other teams make sense to you?
I just find it peculiar that everything you have said so far just makes me more certain I have the correct solve.
I might be too far into this tunnel and confbiasing myself into scumreading everything you say because of how much I disliked the previous player in your slot.
Iām going to chillax for a bit and try to think about this objectively.
The first player in your slot had a very weak start, which put them on my radar. They barely existed during d1. They posted 10 times.
Hard to read a player who isnāt posting. I responded to them in an attempt to prod them into posting more, but they didnāt.
This made me want to watch out for them the following day to make sure they pick up the slack.
Player 2 comes in on day 2 with what felt like a very opportunistic bounty claim on Thomas.
Aka, it felt fake.
Thomas was replaced earlier in the day, and never the lynch there, and the fact that your slot didnāt claim their bounty until 12h into the day was nagl.
Emma did a very large post on Player 2 which I found myself agreeing a lot. It seemed like they were attempting to appeal to me quite a bit, and caught up on the game through my ISO, rather than justā¦ reading everything. I then tried to get them to read the game start to finish with old-Thomas muted and they (basically) said ānah.ā
I just realized the beginning of Emmaās post sounds like the opening line of a FM soap opera.
When reading through Player 2ās bigass post on Jane, I found myself agreeing that Jane had scum equity, but at the same time, I didnāt feel comfortable voting there, as Player 2ās push felt like it was in bad faith. You can expand and read the entire post if you wish, but Iāve quoted the 3 things that gave me pause:
In response to A and B above, Player 2 said they canāt be bothered to expand outside of their push on Jane and look at other players, and when I asked them to make a wallpost on the other players in their PoE just like they did with Jane, they never responded. I pinged them multiple times about this and gave them more than enough opportunities.
The quotes fucked up but you get the idea.
Overall, your slot was extremely focused on a single player for the entirety of d2, and never expanded their boundaries to look outside of Jane. Felt extremely bad-faith to me, as it was a scum-case, rather than an objective view of Janeās alignment, and he didnāt push for Janeās death as much as Iād expect from someone who is so completely sure of someone (Jane) being a wolf.
Overnight in allies, I shared my theory with King/Prince that was very preflippy (hence why I saved it for allies), and came to the conclusion that the push from Player 2 had signs of being w/w with Jane. This has been skewing how I view both slots, for sure.
Today, Player 2 had another bounty claim that seemed extremely fake. Thomas sums up my thoughts pretty well:
After looking for spew from Helen, there was one portion that made me raise an eyebrow, but nothing extremely incriminating.
After reading through Emmaās analysis of how people interacted with Helen, I found myself agreeing that there was potential for your slot to be partnered with them:
Fin.
Needless to say, I canāt just ignore everything the previous players in your slot have done. @Peter_Carew
