I won’t express my views until everyone has put out theirs.
After all someone may come in and start crying about how I don’t let others get their info out by themselves.
Oh man
Arete:
Arete came into the thread with several easy reads. Hja town because she follows her town meta, Priestess gutread town, Maxwell ‘slight scumlean for defensiveness but kind of weird response.’ There are a few notable things here. Gutreading Priestess town feels like an attempt at pocketing, the Hja townread is the easiest and safest possible read to make, and the Maxwell read is just… complete and utter hedging. Arete also avoids Marshal and Geyde. This makes me believe Arete is hedging on Maxwell because they are not sure what to write about Maxwell. Arete is not certain what is going to look good and give them the expected result - which is why they are hedging. It was their opening post and they have not established a strategy just yet. Later on, they kept on posting - however, while they did bring up a high amount of points, followup on many of them was lacking.
Arete keeps engaging with the thread, posting their thoughts and trying to appear like they are solving the game. Key word: appear. If you look closely, Arete has actually not been going anywhere and most of their efforts were intended to make them appear towny - while clearing a few scumbud in the process. Being very vocal is a good strategy to control the thread, which is what Arete has been trying to accomplish. However, their tone feels strongly artificial and their thought processes are unnatural. I can’t explain this very well, but I am simply unable to envision a townie playing like this. Arete is not trying to solve the game. They are trying to stall and keep the lynch away from them - and their buddies.
This.
I don’t do associations, so this doesn’t affect my scumreads at this point, but her stalling at the end of D1 was so obvious that even I really got pinged hard

If you need further evidence to support my points, compare Maxwell’s early defensive behavior to Teleology’s attitude toward her being scumread. If you put them next to each other, the difference is like light and day. Tone, intent, emotion, everything is different. Teleology is overwhelmingly pure. Maxwell is cautious and fake.

The day will end in 36 hours and 50 minutes. If majority is not reached then the player whose name is colored in red will be lynched at the EoD.
