I feel like Nanook has a great understanding of their town traits and nothing in this game would have pushed Nanook into struggling to do that if that was his goal. I also don't like how willing everyone is to sheep my read on Nanook or look to me for guidance there and I am sure at least one wolf is among those who voted or pushed nanook after I did.

Nanook as mafia will generally just play optimally, push weak town, distance teammates, lean towards SPK if he feels that he can.Sloonei wrote: ↑Tue Feb 09, 2021 9:33 pmWhat are the hallmarks of a town nanook game, as opposed to his scum game?MacDougall wrote: ↑Tue Feb 09, 2021 9:31 pmThis is a good read and is sorta something I noticed to, but at the same time I feel like Nanook is more insidious as mafia than this.

MacDougall wrote: ↑Tue Feb 09, 2021 9:39 pm Nanook sadly, also rarely catches mafia bullets because he is rather content to find his towncore and sheep them and let SPK do their thing, which actually makes him a good town player because his townreads are usually very good with only the exception of a few specific people who are capable of pocketing him when they specifically seek to do so. This means that Nanook tends towards getting to the mid/late stages of most games. As town he actually tends to refuse to take up positions of authority until there is literally no other strong town read he has left which tends not to happen until F5 or F3 situations. As mafia he will take up command rather sooner than this and begin to powerwolf and push pro wolf agenda as soon as he feels like the numbers favour his team.

Nanook's first four posts, which were all there were when Mac first made the original scumread. I agreed because these entry posts felt less comfortable than I'm used to nanook being at start of game.

His reaction to being scumread; this is followed by more snarky joking about bussing Made etc. I think this is decently likely for Nanook to do as either alignment but deep in my tummy it feels more likely to just actually be scum -- similar to my later Wilgy read actually.
Then there's the fruit convo where he gets all mad at me for being a hipster lmao. This may be a dumb read and he's gonna laugh at me for it but. His tone in those posts legitimately felt off to me, I'm not sure if this makes sense but like the way he was engaging in the ""off-topic"" content (he will say nothing is off topic and well the fact i'm reading into it attests to that) was like a wolf who was excited to have something to talk about in the thread and get into a heated exchange just to generate posts. Similarly continuing his la croix argument with hyena where he just posted a series of memes, like he was far too into that. Again I am very familiar with Nanook enjoying banter in the thread but I would also expect him to have tossed out some spontaneous reads by now as well and he hasn't really done that, he's only really shitposted.
@NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME surely you have townreads by now? You even brought up that you approve of picking early "mason" names as a strategy but you haven't named any townreads yourself and that seems out of character.
