Wondering if Ender’s concern over not getting NKed is wolfy

The dude went above and beyond in his emotional gaslighting throughout the game. like sure I can understand that from a town pov being mistreated. But if he’s maf then that means all that toxicity and unnecessary rudeness to us was because we were Reading him correctly??
Idk it’s just like a really sour taste in my mouth and like when I first met him he was like some nice sweet guy, probably the nicest of people I first met coming to the site. Idk how much of my townread on him is based on the fact that I just don’t want to accept he did all that shit as mafia just so we wouldn’t vote him or because he was frustrated at being correctly fossed and needed to vent his frustrations on us.
Well, the slot is town. Sorry to hear that happened.

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs
First 3 pages of lime iso
Kinda(?) good for ender. He was onto LC somewhat early but there’s no follow up from this conversation.
First 3 pages of his iso: he spends most of it talking to trans Alison essoa and Alexa. He has a bunch of random conversations with ender that almost never go anywhere and idk wtf to make of them. Minimal/no interactions With everyone else in the lobby.
Lcs reaction to Matt townreading tony. I don’t think? Lc would react that way to a partner being townread, he gains nothing by discrediting that read.
Throughout the early duration when Alison jumped on me he was actively encouraging people to vote me and got glad when they did. There’s a quote of his reaction to when nanook voted me that’s meant to go with this caption but I guess I forgot to add it and now I cbf going back. If I’m his partner he knows in most cases he needs me to go deep so actively encouraging my wagon d1 is just -ev for him if he’s teamed with me.
Not how a scum teammate reacts when their partner trs them. Spews me more town.Lime Coke wrote: ↑Thu Jul 29, 2021 10:24 pmBecause Illario does whatever he can to NOT townread me when he and I are town. Even when I'm obvious as fuck town through a WHOLE game, he'll keep me at null and refuse to move me.
This game he started off with a townread on me. That actually caught me off guard and pinged me.
If I squint really hard I wanna say the way lc so casually asks this makes me think he’s not talking about a partner here. I think he would fake more of a reaction to it and try to take a stance on the wagon.

She's seen how bad I play as scum. You can read our maf chat I was literally asking her what to do the ENTIRE game and did draft posts in the chat.
I know, I just got annoyed by that happening right before I leave. I always get pushed at the worst possible times, like when I'm about to go to sleep or about to drive and I'm forced to stay on and defend myself otherwise it looks like I froze and I'm outed because I leave the game when I start being pushed.NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Fri Jul 30, 2021 6:51 pmTheres no hammer today so
Also, like, people push when they push, there's no rule or etiquette that says you have to wait for someone to be online to push them lol
I'll answer the question first;
I started townreading Nanook early for townreading and coming to your defense in the early game. That's actually it, I haven't really read him since then because he was away until today while I was at work so I haven't paid enough attention to his posts.
He started the game with nanook as one of his first trs for fairly bad reasoning. Prior in his iso he has nanook in his top trs.
In a read list right after that nanook is third last? Even under slots he hasn’t mentioned all game, such as wiml. He doesn’t interact or out any reads on wiml so it’s strange to see wiml places above nanook.
Can’t remember why I quoted this again
He mixes up what ender and nanook said and misremembered their lines. It’s unlikely he would forget what his own partner said for someone else’s lines so ender and nanook do look better after this sequence. Whilst it isn’t not out of the realm of possibility he faked that, I think more likely than not it was real.Lime Coke wrote: ↑Fri Jul 30, 2021 7:39 pmIt was Ender that was my bad.NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Fri Jul 30, 2021 7:37 pm A quick search for lime in my iso and I don't see it, so
I'm reasonably sure I didn't say that lol, maybe it was ender or Alison
First time he mentions wiml ever. Simply just agreeing they’re solid town after someone else has made the read.

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs [Day 4]
i wouldnt say its acceptable as either alignment. its understandable as town, especially if you feel extremely cornered and upset that you're being misunderstood. its unfathomable to be upset as mafia to people for actually playing the game and fossing someone who indeed is mafia....NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Sat Aug 07, 2021 1:40 pmMeh if what he did was acceptable as town then its acceptable as mafiailario wrote: ↑Sat Aug 07, 2021 12:12 pm But I don’t want to believe winl was mafia.

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs [Day 4]
I don't think its unfathomable, a lot of mafia get pissed off if they feel like they're playing well and getting pushed for what they see as bs reasons
I don't think its good behavior as either alignment but its not ai in this case I don't think

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs
Tbhhh this read looks a lot better now knowing that the reason noook had it was because of the Batman game and him withholding that as the reason to tr Matt all that time is >rand town. I think mafia is more likely to make up a reason for why they trd Matt as strongly as noook did on d1

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs [Day 4]
Oh I forgot to mention if there’s one thing I took from lcs iso was that he spews nanook town. I think his big case on nanook was an attempt to take advantage of people wanting to vote out nook the day prior.
I’m in the process of rereading My reads reset but felt like I should mention the spew part befor I forget

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs [Day 4]
Huh. My impression was that LC was specifically keeping illario around and occasionally casting doubt on his read on the slot so that he could push illario lategame.TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Sat Aug 07, 2021 2:48 pmSoft-hard LC defense from Ilario throughout, note how LC clearly TMIs Alexa but treats Ilario differently

Then I took an arrow to the knee and became enlightened
unfortunately I don’t have any real reads yet and all the snap-opinions I have are hedgy so I’m going to keep them to myself until further notice

Which suggests it's a strong field.
Ender is probably town
Someone else idr who but im sure its in my iso
I kinda like this sequence for its cockiness.
Townreads at this point are Transcend, alexa, Ender. 3/3. Doesn't necessarily mean anything, just keeping track for myself.
That's actually pretty true. Now, he could say this because he has TMI on it, but horrible PoEs from town benefit wolves, so minor townpoints for Nanook here.NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Fri Jul 30, 2021 4:05 pmIts a horrible poe lolalexa wrote: ↑Fri Jul 30, 2021 3:24 pmi actually agree with it atm
i mean i don't think alison is town for that reason, she quite literally admitted she'd fake a derp, but i've found her villagery by play thus far
Horrible might be overselling it ig but
I'm pretty sure it has at minimum three town and probably four
Approach to wolfreads seems incredibly lazy at best.NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Fri Jul 30, 2021 4:39 pmThe reason that ilario is scum in like twenty words is because they randed mafia this game. That's twenty exactly.
1. I think the read is wrong.
2. The strength of the conclusion doesn't match the strength of the reasoning, which makes it feel like he's not playing by discovery.
He's certainly very cocky throughout the earlygame, but that's not villagery on its own unless it goes with villagery posts. His posts so far have been alright, but I townread mostly the cockiness and I dislike the approach to scumreads specifically. The three townreads were likely correct, but they also came from nowhere. The towniest thing is that Nanook seems to really believe in his reads, considering how he's treating them with mild arrogance and a decent level of attachment.
I feel like by this point he's been on the way to completely boxing himself out by throwing a townread on TSP into the mix if he's mafia.NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Fri Jul 30, 2021 5:13 pm Shrug
Ok fine
When you guys are done killing me transcend and, idk, probably tsp, and you're looking around trying to figure out who could possibly be mafia, come back to my iso cause my legacy is gonna be good as hell
No, I don't know what to make of this. Not sure why TSP's name is even here.
Oh.NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Fri Jul 30, 2021 5:23 pmIf ilario mafia tsp is a fifth lockNANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Fri Jul 30, 2021 5:22 pm Meh im only at 4 locks if I don't count myself
Trans ender alexa and esooa
So need two more
I'll find them later probably
If im wrong on trans mac becomes lock town
...Idk. What I'm reading feels like a villager solving in his own way, but the lack of explanation behind each read, coupled with him being alive despite being super correct (literally everyone he called town flipped town so far), makes me doubt it. The cockiness and projected attachment to reads are definitely the best look for him, but it feels like he could certainly fake that as mafia.

I mean it's not impossible, my accuracy is wildly variable
I do feel pretty confident about this game tho so take that for what it's worth
like people who have played dozens of games with him are calling him obvious town - does that mean nothing to you?
i am willing to sponge your townread on transcend for 1 day if that's enough to let you sponge my townread on ilario then we find the remaining wolf partner to your ilario/x and my transcend/x world
what do you think?
It means something, but not enough to change my mind atm
Ok, sure, would you rather vote wiml with me? That's my current second option
And he's otherwise meh
So thats probably where else I'd be interested
But it's not really helping.
I've read through his day 1. The things I've noticed are that he seems cocky, his reads have proven very accurate (there's a "lime could be mafia" thrown in at eod1 and lime was mafia), and he seems to have some attachment to his townreads specifically. Those townreads were highly accurate, if not 100%.
His pushes on wolves are lacking. He claims to have low confidence on them, so he spends the majority of day 1 correctly defending Transcend.
Him being alive could be explained by the fact LC decided to push on him on day 3, but I've already explained how LC didn't even seem to care about the push, so.
At this point, gun to head I would say town because of the combination of independent solving + confidence + cockiness + attachment, but I think this is still firmly in wolfrange. Not specifically his wolfrange, I don't know his wolfrange, but the general wolfrange of a decent wolf (which I assume he is).
I think I'm going to stop here and post day 2 separately, I don't want all my posts to be walls.

Don’t think it’s vulguard and that eod was good for tsp, lc also had interactions that didn’t look partnery with tsp
Enders had villagery moments and his push on lc was good, but lc likes to be bussed and he didn’t react to Enders pressure nearly the same way in which he reacted to other townies pressure

By the way, if I'm yeeted today, then I won't blame anyone for it. I didn't blame anyone in DragonVale, either; it just kinda happens when you're POE due to prior play, and I'm notoriously bad at clearing myself.

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs [Day 4]
The biggest thing I care about is that I'm very confident illario and Ender are both just spewed from LC and you should not yeet whichever one survives to f3.

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs [Day 4]
Nanook spends d2 and a large part of d1 hardpushing my slot. And continues to push illario's slot day 2 despite me being very confident it's a town slot.
Calls lime and TSP PoE on day 2, but "less interested in killing."
Realistically that means he has at least three townies lined up to yeet before he hits the wolf in LC.
Like, on a tonal level, on the "believing your reads" level, Nanook looks pretty good. It's just his specific pushes I take issue with.
If his main reason to push illario is off an association with a townread, then it's a problem, because it's essentially veiled chainsawing rather than pushing illario for anything independent. And sure, "awkwardness/self-awareness" is independent enough in a vacuum, but he specifically ties this to alexa.
The problem is that he's been pushing villagers.
D2 he also didn't really do much defending of Mac despite calling him town, so this doesn't feel genuine whatsoever.

Wiml defended ilario and Nanook didn't like that so he's content to see Wiml punished for it.
@NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME if you think Ilario is a wolf what is your plan to actually resolve him given he's read town by practically everyone?
Either we're in a world where I have a better read on ilario than his friends, in which case I'm going to die before he does and he either skates to a win or his friends eventually realize he's mafia in f3 and pretend that they're great for catching him despite me correctly calling him scum in like 2 seconds while they omgused me on his behalf
Or we're in a world where I'm wrong and I've identified the wrong misclear in the towncore/it's two others in my poe
Either way, looking at this pragmatically he's not dying and I'm not going to successfully push him over, so
Hopefully you guys are right and I'm wrong

Interesting how he removes the only wolf in his PoE for bad reasons. He could do this while lacking TMI and not knowing what he's doing, but the fact he removed specifically the only wolf is concerning.NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Mon Aug 02, 2021 11:38 pmInstructions unclear, town locking limeMacDougall wrote: ↑Mon Aug 02, 2021 11:20 pmI'm desperately trying to improve the standard of play right now so veryNANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Mon Aug 02, 2021 11:19 pm How dumb of a read would it be to say that lime is town cause he's using large font and bold and he didn't do that in the joat game iirc
The illario scumread continues to have genuine-looking confidence and belief behind it, it's just the fact he insists on it despite evidence to the contrary fmpov.

And yet I'm still your top scumread
Wild
It really isn’t that wild considering I’ve had statements like that for every player in every game I’ve ever randed town. Everyone has towny moments, but if those moments are few and far in between, and I have to squint pretty hard to read it as towny, then more often than not it’s just mafia.
The bolded interestingly assumes alexa's town, though given his prior expressed read on the slot, this isn't too nonsensical.NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Tue Aug 03, 2021 11:58 amLmao yeah that was an interesting oneWiml wrote: ↑Tue Aug 03, 2021 11:40 am"just want to make sure this doesn't slip through the cracks cus of notification shenanigans, i was wondering whether your read that we are town because of the level of comfort in revealing that nanook pees while he drives was from made or alison?"NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Tue Aug 03, 2021 11:38 amI don't really remember her read so idk
Which townreads do you think are controversial?
And anything that isn't alexa/illario/Esooa tbh.
Speaking of illario if you also wouldn't mind explaining that read I'd appreciate it.
I didn't like ilario's interactions around alexa early, there were a couple posts that showed a combination of awkwardness and self awareness that reads as scummy to me. I think his trans handling was kinda meh, but that's harder to judge. I think he's mostly been pushing pro scum poe, although tbf he's not alone in that regard fmpov.
Its a bit of an ego tunnel atp I guess but I don't really care
Mac had a townie eod1, and I think the work he's done today is largely out of his scumrange. That may be a bit of an exaggeration, and the counterargument is that if he's mafia here he's likely trying his ass off given the playerlist, but yeah, I think given his reads and his play he's probably just town
Ender is a bit of a lazier read tbh, he reads similar to his play in scythe to me, and I have a decent record of correctly tolerating him, so I just locked it in.
If his main reason to push illario is off an association with a townread, then it's a problem, because it's essentially veiled chainsawing rather than pushing illario for anything independent.

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs [Day 4]
Yeah I’m really sorry if ur town and getting punished for the actions of ur predecessor. I really wished u were town with me again when I saw ur sub since I had a lot of fun having you wiht us in dragonvale and the thread kinda died with you tbh. But I’m trying to take away emotion from my read through and on an objective level a lot of wimls posts are just scummy. I wanna try and read more before eod today but I figured I’ll update people on my thoughts rn.
I think ender has the most towny lines d1, from the people I’m reading through that are alive rn though that’s not hard considering that nook and tsp didn’t speak that much and wimls I sorta Address in my walk. Nook looks good based on how lc played around his slot and almost all his stances this game has been pro-town in hindsight. Tsp is tsp idk what else there is to say regarding him upto the point im at on my rr, dudes an enigma but he might be a town enigma.
I probably won’t engage much with the thread from now till eod cos I still got a bunch of reading to do and wanna prioritize that.

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs [Day 4]
Nanook's stances being pro-town actually concerns me, because you're right. He's fairly consistently been taking pro-town stances from what I've seen so far, but that's suspicious in and of itself, because I can't see how a villager could always take pro-town stances. They don't have TMI, they will be wrong, and they will help the wolves at some point, won't they?
I pointed out how he pushed villagers, that's really the only thing he did this game that wasn't pro-town and he didn't even try super hard to strongarm people into it during the earlygame. His townlist has been super pure all game.

Caveat being that if Nanook's the last wolf alive after yesterday, I doubt he kills alexa in that case.
Why can't TSP be mafia? I know the point is "there's only one mafia and that's the problem," but it also looks like he dismisses the whole thing because it's specifically TSP.NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Wed Aug 04, 2021 6:18 pm If we collectively sheep strong townreads on players who have experience with each other there's only one mafia and its tsp

I have experience with ender and vouch for him
I don't know if this applies to lime or not but I think he's been largely townread afaik so I'm counting it
So that leaves wiml and tsp. Iirc Alexa vouched for wiml prior to today, or am I remembering wrong?

So yeah I say we hammer and go from there
Interesting how the confidence Nanook has on his townreads drops as the game progresses, which is consistent with the scum wincon being to misyeet as many villagers as possible. He said at SoD3 that he wanted to kill people he wasn't shielding, but now he is only shielding alexa, and beforehand he said that alexa could be mafia if illario is not. This is a very opportunistic progression that lends itself well to closing out the game by getting a couple more misyeets.NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Thu Aug 05, 2021 2:12 pmNot sure they're largely conditional rn
Probably you
I am also nothing that Nanook barely reacted to Lime's case on him, which is consistent with my assertion that the case was merely for optics. In fact, this actually means that neither one ever cared, and that's strongly W/W indicative.

Absolutely not, there was no strong motion from Nanook to kill Lime at the time. I've just read his ISO, there isn't anything of the sort.

This ISO is getting worse by the minute. He did not try to kill Lime at any point unless I'm blind. There were a couple of moments when he kinda pushed Lime but he then walked it back entirely. Day 3 he wanted to push my slot over Lime fairly consistently and only voted Lime because it was a foregone conclusion.
He now uses the "Lime pushed me so I am clear" argument despite not even reacting to the case when it was made and not pushing Lime for it until his death was inevitable. Yeah, I am not buying it. This looks like he pulled that argument solely because that was the plan in wolfchat, not based on what actually happened in the thread, that being a lack of care about the case from both sides strongly pointing toward the case being fake.
The fewer players are alive, the more opportunistic Nanook seems. While at the start of the game it looked like he was super pro-town and was pointing out super correct townreads, the further the game progressed, the more villagers he pushed and the fewer villagers he shielded. This reads to me like a solid wolf day 1 that deteriorated as the game progressed, out of necessity.

Scun often are more prone to seeing something their partner did as a slip cause they know it in fact was a slip
I don't think its meaningful really, especially since afaik it was dropped when nobody agreed and helped push it
At this point I refuse to believe the read was made in good faith. Similar stuff re: his read on my slot. He never relented on either read for four days. Not a single moment of doubt, hesitation, progression change, anything. This isn't how a villager treats their reads. If he really had this insane confidence, then neither slot would be alive right now, because he would beg the village to kill them. That didn't happen. He kinda just called us mafia repeatedly, but that is as far as it went.
Oh, finally.NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Sat Aug 07, 2021 11:38 amBold of you to assume I've read the whole gameVulgard wrote: ↑Sat Aug 07, 2021 10:17 am I also really hate the fact Nanook had the me/illario world during this SoD, when I think we actually look great from LC's ISO and that illario's independently super villagery. TSP supporting it isn't any better. I can't give them any excuses for it, either, because as people who've read the whole game they should know this.
But yes you'll note that I realized ilario was/is probably town and swapped tsp into my poe instead, unprompted
Why won't he read TSP? If he's a villager, isn't resolving TSP kinda important, especially now? Nanook has barely talked about TSP for the entire game, awkwardly slotting him into the PoE every now and then, and that was that. Now we're in f5 and he... still does not talk about TSP. If Nanook's mafia, TSP's just town, but if I assume Nanook's town, then resolving TSP seems... very important? And he's not doing it.
Overall, I think this ISO falls off a cliff roughly around late day 2 / day 3, and it's consistent with a wolf who needs to progressively expand their options because it becomes increasingly more likely they'll be solo wolfing. He presents a POV of "villager whose reads haven't been listened to," but he himself lowers the confidence of those reads, specifically the townreads, opening up more options at a convenient time. I think this is wolfy thread maneuvering rather than a villager actually solving the game.
I think the most telling part is the LC case on him and their mutual treatment of it (LC/Nanook). Neither actually cares about the case, as I've already talked about, yet Nanook tries to use it to clear himself later in the game. The case was not clearing whatsoever, so him using it tells me it was pre-planned in wolfchat and the plan was for it to clear one of them. He pulled the "clear" part from wolfchat because that is what was supposed to happen, but it did not actually happen.
I currently think it's Nanook, but I'll keep reading.

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs [Day 4]
Reading TSP's ISO and I'm honestly not seeing much to talk about. Nothing overtly wolfy, but also nothing overtly villagery.
His entire day 2 has no solving in it. No scumreads, no pushing people, not even defending villagereads. Just making naked reads.
Another villagery post, I am totally not biased by myself agreeing with it wholeheartedly. ...Only two. In an ISO of a few hundred. But it's there, I suppose.
The rest of his posts are... inoffensive. He hadn't really been solving until then, I don't think, but he had a few villagery moments like this one.
Overall, I... didn't really find anything there. Some villagery posts I think wolves wouldn't/would find it difficult to fake, but overall, not that much solving. Some cases of posting that looks independent-thought-processy enough to come from a villager and not wolf, but holistically, it's not very inspiring.
However, when it comes to the ISO's overall progression, it's not outright wolfy like Nanook's. I currently think TSP isn't super villagery, but at least he had villagery moments. Nanook didn't really have villagery moments, he just had cockiness and confidence that I townread. The content of his posts wasn't super villagery overall, while I did find some posts in TSP's ISO that struck me as distinctly villagery.
Currently leaning toward Nanook over TSP, though TSP's worldview today being exactly my two clears is... eh. If he's a wolf he knows he's turning me against himself by wolfreading my two clears, so I'm actually inclined to say he doesn't do this as mafia, but I can't say it's a strong or even good reason.
The first villagery part that I found. This is a distinctly villagery POV. It's not a 100% clear but it's a pretty good look.
His entire day 2 has no solving in it. No scumreads, no pushing people, not even defending villagereads. Just making naked reads.

He is not making an effort to win this game for his wolf team unless his entire plan is to just die to spew Ilario town.

Very good look, actually. He could be bussing here, but he's essentially telling me to get credit for it, which would be a strange thing to do for wolf!him. He would want that credit himself instead of giving it to a townie who replaced into a misyeetable slot.TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Thu Aug 05, 2021 7:17 am fwiw if you're town you should vote for LC because nanook /will/ (probably) hammer and if you're town that's like ~always~ a hit

I can see that happening. Like I said thought if there's a mafia between you 2 it has to be Ilario.
I don't think TSP is the one to go to here though, he's probably mafia with Nanook.
We can only trust the truth. Everything else is a lie.

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs [Day 4]
Yeah I'm settled on Nanook/Vulgard being winning POE.
@ilario Lemme know if you have any thoughts you want me to dive into
I'm going to bed now but I'll be awake before EOD to cast a vote.

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs [Day 4]
Yeah I actually do think there are several spots in vulgards case on me where it only works with tmi
Now tbf this could be confirmation bias on his part too, but yeah, combined with his case overlooking a few things, I think he's probably the last one
If not him Id have to see the nk

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs [Day 4]
I mean, I think LC spewed my slot town in his lackluster interactions with WIml where he tries to appease to his slot, but sure.
Currently thinking Illario/Ender are just villagers and that TSP's villagerier than Nanook (though only by a bit), leaving me at Nanook -> TSP as yeet priority.
If I'm wrong about Nanook, or if you don't listen to me and yeet someone else and they flip V, I'll evaluate again in f3. But I really think Nanook ends the game, and I think his and LC's mutual treatment of one another on day 3 is a dead giveaway of them being partnered.

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs [Day 4]
I'm not sure how you can look at the push on Nanook day 3 and think it's genuine and that it spews Nanook town. Neither player involved cares, and it's very obvious when you pay close attention. The lack of care on both sides tells me that both players know this push for what it really is - a fake push for optics that's not actually intended to go anywhere. Nanook using it to try and clear himself later in a seemingly innocent post contradicts his treatment of it in the moment. It's like he knew the push was meant to clear him, but forgot to take it seriously in the moment because of TMI.
If I'm wrong about Nanook then TSP's the other option because among all the players alive, he's been the least involved in actually solving the game, and at this point solving the game is super important. His worldviews today have been rather confusing and pro-wolf, and while there are villagery moments in his ISO, they don't compare to Ender / illario, what they have posted and how LC spews them. LC doesn't spew TSP at all; in fact, LC's treatment of TSP is "quietly put in PoE and push other players," which is textbook w/w stuff. The reason I'm pushing Nanook over TSP is that I think he's playing much more like a wolf would, that is, actually pushing an agenda of some kind and not trying to avoid getting voted by doing few things of substance. But if I'm wrong on Nanook, the next player I would look at is TSP.
Obviously re-evaluate in f3, yadda yadda, but that's where I stand right now and I feel quite good about it.

Re: Buckets: War of the GOATs [Day 4]
Realistically, Nanook's defense against my case is pretty bad, because calling it TMI-ish and "overlooks a few things" is shorthand for "I don't know how to defend myself against it, so I just won't." Now, I'm notoriously bad at defending myself as either alignment, so I could sympathize with that, except his go-to response is to call me a wolf instead, which is boring and predictable. I'd expect him to try harder to find the last wolf here as V, perhaps try to work with me rather than against me, but instead he's just continuing his incorrect push from the first three days without even attempting to re-evaluate it. Why? Because at this point, he's locked into it. He knows he can't misyeet illario or Ender, I won't let him, and if TSP's town, then he's a good f3 misyeet. The highest-value yeet for wolf!Nanook that's also reasonably easy for him to get is exactly me, so his response to my case being essentially "this is TMI, Vulgard is just a wolf" is quite telling of his motivations.
Don't forget this if I'm yeeted and you go to final 3.

Tbh theres good arguments for everyone in the game not being teamed with lc, but obviously someone is, so.

I basically never respond to cases point by point (especially as town), if you wanted a response you should've asked questions instead lpl
