this post contrasts awkwardly with your post here: [VFM] Town vs Bandits - Day 1 (13/13) - #839 by willtaylor

you’re saying that it is ā€œvery easyā€ to justify pushing you based on your play, but you are also claiming that the wolves haven’t tried to push on you hard yet because the push on you lacks substance. isn’t it usually one or the other?

will’s tone feels both flat & stressed out

what’s your takeaway from this?

will’s ISO is …pretty rough. he throws shade on emilia almost immediately and stays fixated on her throughout his entire ISO. will has outed two reads in this game (vulgard V and emilia W, unless im missing any) and both of them are stagnant and not really being used as a springboard for more solving. it always feels icky to push on newer players that are just getting into the game but i could theoretically see will’s ISO being both so barren and *oddly consistent *in reads because he’s struggling with TMI

gamer read: chloe/vulgard is probably not T v T

the way that vulgard de-escalated his read on chloe and started townreading her and the way that chloe has continued pursuing her suspicions against vulgard (presumably alluding to a very spicy wolfread on him in her last post that she didn’t elaborate further on) doesn’t really feel like a town v town dynamic between two players who know each other quite well? like in 90% of cases i would say a dynamic like this is wolf/town

the dynamic between proph/chloe is probably not W/W, in case this becomes relevant later. the way that chloe did the whole: ā€œi just can’t HELP but townread proph’s wallpostsā€ thing is not generally the way that a wolf justifies townreading their partner

current townlist is artic/leafia/alice and i’m perturbed at my inability to expand that list so far. not many people have felt ~distinctly~ villagery to me even if a lot of you feel villagery on a textbook level

alice’s drop in presence today …could be concerning but the first half of her day was so villagery that im not worrying about it right now

ok so I’m on melatonin and I’m very sleepy but I wanted to get this out before I forgot

honestly

I feel like proph might be bussing Vulgard

It’s been kinda sitting in my mind for the past few hours and I didn’t really entertain it because looking at the playerlist it didn’t really make sense

but like looking at the setup bussing kinda does make sense actually? And like Vulgard’s posting is just so shit that it almost feels intentional and Proph’s posting around Vul does kinda fit with him having tmi that Vulgard is a wolf

so I guess my PoE for today officially ā„¢ļø Is marl/proph/Vulgard/will

I don’t know exactly.

Chloe sounds almost forcefully interrogative.

I understand that Emilia has either a very unique playstyle (compared to others her) or she’s a wolf.

this is a thought that i’m very interested in hearing you expand on - are there any posts in particular from proph that felt indicative of him having TMI on vulgard’s alignment? why is the suspicion against vulgard bussing and not just a villager authentically finding vulgard wolfy?

you think that she’s a wolf though, right?

And Chloe did pick up on this.

I also don’t see the problem in fixating on one clear wolf-read if we’re lynching one single person today. More information comes to us as the game progresses.

it’s just like general vibes

it doesn’t actually feel like proph has any doubt in his mind that vul is a wolf

it feels like he knows that vul is a wolf even if the reasons aren’t the best?

and again, vul’s posting has been absolutely abysmal, like the worst I’ve ever seen regardless of his alignment and it’s weirding me out

I’m almost certain that he wouldn’t get into this situation as a wolf if he wasn’t getting bussed by someone

Emilia? I’d bet she’s a wolf. I also understand the other possibility.

It’s felt like proph has been focusing today on getting Vulgard killed over solving, making useable posts that aren’t about Vulgard, etc

which is just not what I think a villager like proph does, it feels like an excuse to not post anything else of substance

and also I think his tunnel is bullshit, and generally bullshit wolf tunnels have a decent chance to be busses tbh

ehhh but proph has been, at least, externally doubtful about whether or not vulgard is a wolf. he made an entire wallpost just a little while ago expressing how uncertain he feels about his read on vulgard. so you’re saying that it ā€œfeelsā€ like proph knows that vulgard is a wolf when he’s saying the explicit opposite of that. it isn’t impossible that proph is bussing vulgard but i don’t think there’s any particular evidence that points to that world being the case

and fwiw i do agree that vulgard’s posting in this game is notably disinvested compared to any other game i’ve seen from him - i suspect that the lack of investment is unrelated to his alignment, so im a little uncomfy making reads on that basis

i feel like im playing defense for vulgard but in reality i just have no idea what his alignment is
