[VFM] Town vs Bandits - Day 5 (4/13) - Bandits Win!

[Arctic]

@Emilia

Cuz I didnt think about it that way back then

is it weird that i think this might actually be villagery for emilia
i think not actively looking for stuff to solve is v indicative for her. hear me out
in meowntainado she was trying really hard to find stuff she could make reads about and she struggled a lot, in addition to sounding incredibly forced

if she were a wolf here, i think she’d be more likely to have been hawking the thread to find something somewhat AI and then give an incredibly forced read on it. the fact she just didn’t think about this post just didn’t really match that play.

i think alice is also correct in that she sounds pretty comfortable in the thread so far

@staypositivefriend

it’s been less than an hour. it seems far too early to even begin ranking the posts that people are making, but i suspect that your approach is just a playstyle difference thing and not worth splitting hairs over

I generally make a lot of reads, including a lot of questionable ones. I think it’s a good thing to do that, because it generates discussion.

[Arctic]

it’s possible she was just frozen, but her comfort in thread doesn’t really match with this imo

Looks like my hopes of this game being not a fast one have been dashed : p

Gimme a quick sec to read up over what’s happened in the past hour or so

@Emilia

@Vulgard

I mean that she’s clearing a villager in the process

how do you know theyre villa tho

In a Chloe/SPF W/W world, she probably would be, and that’s where my take comes from.

I guess Arctic/SPF/Chloe is possible, but… nah.

If that helps, D2+ is generally much less hectic.

…err, what’s your read on Arctic?

[Vulgard]

@Alice

what’s your read on Arctic?

Hard V

[Leafia]

How would a w/w world where she’s bussing Chloe clear someone of the possibility of being a wolf?

[Vulgard]

Wait, I just called Arctic a she, didn’t I?
Lol.

[Alice]

Reasoning?

[Arctic]

@staypositivefriend

i think it would have been easy for leafia as a wolf to either drop her TR on chloe entirely upon seeing her getting pressured, or to hard defend chloe and TMI her as a villager, but leafia silently just started pushing on one of the people wolfreading chloe without bringing much attention to it

this is an incredibly good post because i think the bolded is exactly what leafia would do as a wolf here lmao

[Vulgard]

@Alice

Reasoning?

@Vulgard

I think Arctic and Leafia are both villagers here. I also townread that take from Leafia, but I didn’t know how to articulate it. Arctic noticing that as well, cross-referencing it with a past game, and expressing the take in a way that sounds TMI-less makes me feel confident he’s town. I also think his take has merit, so Leafia should probably be town as well.

This post is going to age poorly if they are both wolves, but hey, gotta take some risks, right?

@Leafia

How would a w/w world where she’s bussing Chloe clear someone of the possibility of being a wolf?

She’s basically calling Arctic villa, because she’s accusing Chloe of sponging Arctic’s read, and that’s generally not something partners do to each other. I’ve seen it happen exactly once, and it wasn’t as early in the game as it would be in this case – also less subtle.

And I don’t think she needs to do that as Chloe’s partner. She can push Chloe without giving us clears if she’s inclined to bus from the beginning.

I don’t even believe this very strongly, but I think there’s some merit.

[Alice]

I feel like it’s less meta and more how he’s interacting with the thread.

Like, he has a hard time replicating the focus and passion for solving that he has a villager when he wolfs and for him to focus on you it seems like it’s a genuine attempt to figure out your alignment over posturing.

[staypositivefriend]

i have no idea what artic’s ranges are like but his posts are pretty strong so far. a consistently high depth of thought, consideration of multiple angles, high level of comfort w/making complex reads in the super early stages of the game. i think he’s most likely a villager based on the quality of his posts so far, but that comes with the disclaimer that this type of read can be really dangerous lol

[Leafia]

Hmmm, that kind of makes sense.

[staypositivefriend]

damn it sucks that alice is probably a wolf lol

[Leafia]

I’m not so sure. She’s currently Null in my eyes.
