The game probably still isn’t that hard if sloonei is town, I think our POE is pretty good tbh


The only thing that makes the game hard is if nutes is mafia or if SPF/Hally are the team. If neither of those are the case I think we win this through straight POE 9/10 times

List a reason to townread everybody in the game.

Then identify which players were the hardest/easiest to come up with reasons for.

i honestly think we should eliminate alison today over sloonei

nova and jay both sussed alison and were more pro-sloonei than most others (and yes, i know jay had sloonei in his poe but he still defended sloonei a fair bit and resisted what he thought was undue pressure on him). if nova and jay were here they would be pushing alison over sloonei. they aren’t here because mafia didn’t want them here, and we should keep that in mind

another reason i don’t think mafia!sloonei would kill jay because there was quite a bit of speculation about a sloonei/jay w/w world. if sloonei is mafia he is killing someone that 1) would have helped him survive this day by pushing alison and 2) could have been eliminated after a scum!sloonei flip because he would have looked bad. sloonei would be shooting himself in the foot making that kill

meanwhile, nutella, who should have been the most lock cleared person out of anyone N2 pending an lc scum flip, is still alive over jay. nut has been the most anti-sloonei person from the start and pro-alison. mafia left her alive for a reason, and i think it’s because they want her to keep tunneling sloonei

sloonei doesn’t make these kills. they’re incredibly suboptimal for him and it doesn’t make sense when he could just kill nut instead

let’s trust in our dead teammates and kill alison

That is worrying.
In a world where you're town I might start to reconsider Alison, and maybe entertain a Tutuu/Alison team. I'd also probably tinfoil everyone in the game since if you're town I would definitely be fooled by someone.

The speculation about Sloonei/Jay was pretty early on and disappeared quickly, and Jay was a consensus townread by the end of N2. Sloonei could easily have been afraid of JJJ pushing him further since he was trending down for JJJ. Your assumption 2 I think is incorrect since he wouldn't actually have looked bad since he had Sloonei in his PoE. Plus JJJ isn't exactly an easy person to elim. Do you have any reason to think Sloonei's town besides NKA?

Also, I kind of accepted that Nova was NKed for being a consensus townread and for their take on LC.

In the Champs Finale, the game-winning move was Arete's fake joat claim, because they also claimed to have a green check on the consensus top suspect at the time (who was town). It forced us to break out of our collective tunnel and start focusing on suspects who had been mistakenly cleared. It helped us catch the "deepwolf" sooner than we otherwise probably would have.

There is nothing in this game that can mechanically clear me. But if we are indeed in a state where I am the consensus top suspect and people think the game is hinging on that, I urge everyone to look outside that hypothetical gamestate. What does the game look like when I am town?

It looks confusing and I'm guessing the wolves would be exactly the people we never would have guessed are wolves. (Just because this is what happened last game I played). SPF is someone I'd look at more closely in that scenario since there's no hard evidence or interactions clearing her, she just seems town based on weaker tone/mindmeld/effort reads. Her tone looks really pure but she's my most suspicious out of the consensus townreads because there really isn't anything to clear her.

I also don't really think Alison makes sense as scum (especially since she's hard townreading Martin and pushed me really hard, I don't think her reads make sense from a scum POV and would box her in if you're town).

Have you looked at her interactions with LC?
A little bit, LC hard townread her and called her his battle partner, and SPF called LC likely town a few times. I'm going to bed so I won't get the actual quotes or get more in depth until tomorrow. I'm not exactly scumreading SPF I just think that if there's a deepwolf, it's her. An SPF wolf scenario (and I don't think it necessarily means SPF/Hally, a W/T mindmeld is absolutely possible and I've seen it happen) would become more likely if you're town.

If it's not two deepwolves it's at least one of Alison/Martin and I townread them both.

An SPF wolf scenario (and I don't think it necessarily means SPF/Hally, a W/T mindmeld is absolutely possible and I've seen it happen) would become more likely if you're town.
I agree with this in general

guys i know nk’s are wifomy and stuff but in a situation like this where the obvious nk (nut) doesn’t die, we really really should consider that her reads are incorrect and that jay’s were better

and again, jay could easily have been eliminated off a scum!sloonei flip. sloonei does not take away a future miselimination like that instead of nk’ing the lock clear villager who is also tunneling him

please, let’s try to put the game in perspective and set aside our own reads a bit. i think it’s the right thing to do here

That's how I feel as well. I get the feeling that LC and SPF are both very competent players and are capable of wolf theater.

Sloonei does look significantly better for staying calm yet asking everyone to consider worlds where he's town. I'm not confident he's scum anymore (I mean I wasn't really confident before but now I'm even less confident).

wasn’t meaning say it’s clearing, especially not since lc was dead already, but it should at least be part of the conversation

for what reason does sloonei kill jay over nut? does anyone have a reason? because mafia did that, and if sloonei = mafia HE did that. why would he do that? i really don’t think he would

thanks.

I'd agree that this looks good for spf, but I wouldn't put it past LC (and probably SPF as well, but i've never seen her scum game) to stage some interactions like this.

I will say that LC looks like he just put himself on lockdown: he wasn't gonna give us a chance to read anything new from him in there.

Tutuu's reaction to being placed in the grasslands looks authentic.

I mean I didn't really want to get into the wifom of this because I think the reason can be exactly that you are posting this right now and doubting it. I keep saying I don't want to let Sloonei get by another day, and maybe I'm wrong and that's a mistake, but maybe that's what he wants you to think.

Idk. I myself am having doubts that he kills jay / from his last few posts. But my vote has been placed, and I don't feel an alison yeet today although that may be the way to go if you're right about the me vs jay thing. I would potentially support a tutuu elimination but kinda feel like not enough people are ready to take that step.

i encourage as much tinfoil toward me as you guys can come up with - i would rather that ppl be paranoid about me now and not later in the game if i'm still alive. on that note, im also fine with not being sent to the grasslands tonight - i think there's a solid chance the maf will feel pressured to kill me, and that the paranoia toward me will be self-resolving

i will try to be around for the deadline tomorrow, but there's a solid chance that i won't be. i'm gonna place my vote before i leave tonight, and it's going to be on sloonei unless something changes my mind within the next few hours. i understand hally's argument for wanting to chop alison over sloonei, but i also feel that sloonei has had a scummier game holistically speaking, and i cant substantiate my suspicions of alison with as much logic as i can with sloonei

scum who are at the bottom of the poe don’t make wifom kills that increase their chances of dying and remove a future miselimination that they desperately need. they cannot afford to get fancy. this sort of thing would buy sloonei maybe a day if that. it’s just not an optimal play

Is there a possible Sloonei teammate who you think has strong reason to kill Jay?

Ok I'm really going to bed now.

fair I guess, but also in the treehouse I was going pretty far into a sloonei/jay w/w theory and maybe sloonei decided that flipping jay might actually break me out of that and make me consider jay's tr of sloonei more

like, confirming jay as v would shut down my theory and even though i suspected sloonei first/independently of jay, jay's flip from w!sloon's pov would hopefully convince me he's town

is getting you to possibly doubt your read a little more valuable than leaving jay alive so we can eliminate him after sloonei flips scum?

yeah.


also his comparison to dya kinda struck me as legit / i dont want to be that dumb town that just sleepwalks into the wrong poe'd slot yknow? but on the other hand if he *is* wolf i'd be upset that i had him and let him slip. but i'm thinking more and more that you're right he's probably not and i need to think more about alison/other worlds

okay valid, i honestly still want sloonei the most just factoring in the interaction analysis/how the game looks holistically to me rn - i have a harder time seeing a slooneitown world than i do seeing an alisontown world. i do understand your argument, though. the jagged kill gives me pause, and if sloonei is scum i dont understand the angle of killing one of his most passionate defenders
