[VFM] Purgatory III: The Reckoning! Finale. Demons Win!

That’s not really clear, I’m sorry for misunderstanding.

You can’t possibly have nothing to add from reading the thread…

~Player 2

thread empty. Might as well try to do something.

realistically reading a player off of a singular post is bad, particularly since they only have a single post, but I want postgame cred. Gut says V, they try to annoy with the last bit and actually say some analysis, even if its what I was saying, in their first post. This isnt a strong read given that this fakeable for most people, but onepostgutreads cant be wrong, right?
also, there is two of you, try to share.


mole has nothing there, besides a possibly implied townread on me. They are waiting to answer potentially AI questions, will look out for those.


Wazza’s early aggression not being directed at Zone, even if its at me, is a good look. They get annoyed Zone calls for a ql on them, but they dont try to fight off Zone there, they turn to me, which I believe points to them believing in their read on me, rather then fighting for survival. I was voting them at the time but I think it was rather clear I wasnt the one trying to execute them, rather, RVS.
I do wish you wouldnt keep lurking, but still think you are a villager.


I do believe I have gone through every player in the game, but due to very few posts from a portion of the people not all of my thoughts have been conclusive or as solid as they should be.

I ignored it because I wanted Ravens reaction first. It was satisfactory

I haven’t made any reads.

Fos Anagram for inventing reasons to scumread me

You have, on Raven.

And I’m still waiting for you to answer my question.

~ Player 2

okay. Was wondering if anything beyond RVS existed. Why did you think my answer was NAI, as you seem to think it?

i know im not mole but he answered why he voted, unless i missed another question

oh, yeah. This changed.

@Moleland
explain what you thought of my reaction.

im definitely going to compile these…memes postgame

I somewhat hope trivial’s threadstate read is right. This is going to be quite the game if 2-3 of the wolves are in the bottom 4 posters.

I got caught up watching a movie

how many more hours?

Approximately 23 hours remaining.

ok, I should have more time here now

I need a few hours to cool down, but when I get back I will reread this thing

Ok so I did a full thread read again to get more solid takes since I’m not finding much content to point out in thread. Here’s some reads, take them as you will:

Townlean

Zone

They seem to have mild disinterest, not in playing, but in acknowledging the game isn’t moving much and not expecting activity to pick up drastically. When they pushed Anagram, they had an inquisitive tone, doesn’t seem like agenda pushing here. I’m not entirely sure on this slot, but seems generally good and definitely not my target for this Hell Phase.

Raven

Some takes have been weird, but seems to genuinely be trying to scum hunt. Their posts have a lot of relevant content and analysis which is really good considering the thread is kind of dead.

Yawn

One post, but I liked their take, so here they are.

Neutral

Wazza

I know some of y’all don’t like metareading, but they seem to be up to their usual stuff. Which doesn’t help me, I’ve seen them do this as town and scum.

Moleland

No leads here.

An_Gorta_Pratai

Again, not enough posts with readable content in them. No take here.

Scumlean

Trivial

I don’t like their thread entrance. They didn’t seem to provide reasoning for the initial Anagram vote, just dropped it. The Zone tunnel was also not a good look for them. This is not a strong read though.

Anagram

I don’t like the vibes I’m getting from this slot. They seem to be focusing on being friendly rather than scum-hunting despite claiming that they want to scum hunt. They rejected Zone’s inactivity hunt, which I don’t like. Even if you think people shouldn’t be scumread for being inactive, it’s still a place to start rather than leaving the thread stagnant. In regards to their appearance, the weird dialogue between the two heads felt disingenuous, and they keep giving suggestions for people to improve their in thread game rather than condemning things to get explanations.

Oh yeah also /vote Anagram

That’s not how gun-to-head works, buddy. “Ask again later,” in my experience, usually comes from a wolf. A villager doesn’t have anything to fake, so they just provide whatever they have at the moment. Wolves want more time to think on what they’re going to say.

I rather like this large post from Raven.
Nothing feels unnecessary.
In an empty thread, it is easy to say anything and you will likely be given towncred for filling the void. This has actual content, and it feels rather genuine.
Raven has moved up a bit for me.

There was indeed another question (from my partner):

Its disheartening that Moleland has only provided a “read” on Raven, and they have barely existed in the thread.
I’d hope a villager would have more care for the game.
I get bad feelings from this slot and I think their behavior is more likely to come from a wolf than a villager.

What about Raven’s reaction was satisfactory? All you say is “I like this.” What do you like?

Your earlier self-meta stated that you usually “just throw in analysis when I see stuff that’s relevant,” yet you now feel the need to re-read the entire game, even though you clearly didn’t see anything as relevant before.
While I usually like when players re-read the thread to provide content:
Earlier in my post, I mentioned that not providing takes when asked to, gun-to-head, allows wolves the time they need to not goof-up.
Part of me feels like this is exactly what you did.
You took that time.

I find it interesting that you didn’t feel the need to mention that you liked their take, when you saw it.
The last thing I read regarding my slot (which is what Yawn’s take was on) was this:

Hedge! And you never mentioned us (the hydra heads) speaking to eachother, and how you felt about it - which was the basis of Yawn’s take.

You dislike that Trivial had no reasoning for their initial vote, and they simply dropped it. Is this not what Moleland did with Raven? You having a read on one but not the other, for this reasoning, doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me.

I’m not here solely to scum-hunt. I’m here to solve. I’m looking for villagers and wolves alike, and I think I have done as much as (if not more than) almost everyone else here on that front!

We may have rejected the inactivity hunt, as we view it as useless, but we definitely didn’t leave the thread stagnant. In fact, we ended up voting someone 10 minutes after this, but not for the purpose of an inactivity hunt.
This is flimsy reasoning for disliking our slot.

Please expand.
Many people have pointed this out, and I am not inclined to believe that you believe this, as it is very easy to echo others.
You did not point this out earlier, and according to your earlier self-meta, it must not have been very relevant and didn’t stand out.

I think it is likely that darth is a wolf here. However, my vote stays on Moleland for the time being.
My partner and I seem to have some disagreements on darth that I would like to discuss with them.

Time to reread

Why are you townreading Zone for that?

You didn’t seem angry or respond in a negative way.
