I have postulated that Wilgy, rather than scum push his partner like he did w/ Gav, might be more inclined to TR his partner.



I'm interested in SPF/fingersplints wagons ATM

falcon posting some vague and uncontroversial nonassociatives with wilgy and then saying "i'm interested in SPF/fingersplints" wagons feel like a pretty transparent attempt to powerwolf and push the game into the wrong direction, especially from the POV of knowing that im town. falcon hasnt interacted with any of my posts in this game and i dont believe that he actually scumreads me, and i think he might just be a wolf trying to keep a low presence and coast through as long as possible

Yeah, but I don't know you're Town & I think you could be Maf.

Do you want to ask me about anything? I have a slight bit of energy from a nap so I can do a bit of something.

fwiw i think this thought from CRrichard is kind of towny, regardless of whether or not its correct. i imagine that the wolves would probably want to be injecting as much paranoia in the thread as possible at this stage in the game (particularly if the "consensus" POE is headed in the right direction), and this post effectively accomplishes the opposite of that. it might benefit CR to say this if their teammates were buried super deep but i still think it's kind of a towny observation to make in the first place

i also think that CR is town for emotional reasons that should be self-evident, but i feel dirty townreading him for that so im trying to substantiate my read with logic lol

If he's partnered with Gira or alexa it makes sense for him to push this, yeah?

with alexa maybe, but definitely not gira. gira is "consensus" POE at this point, so i don't think CR would be incentivized to push that angle if he was partnered with him

Why would he not be incentived to push that the nk of a person scumreading Gira was for reasons besides their reads?

the point is that CR was pushing the narrative that alexa/mac/you are all town and that the consensus POE is largely correct - gira is part of that consensus POE

if his plan was to subtly protect gira by downplaying the reads of the person who got nightkilled, it isn't reflected in the rest of his posts today

Wait can I read falcon real quick

Lean solid mafia

Him not posting days 2/3 is not helpful

Reasons why I'm townreading everyone else that isn't in my POE.

Alexa - Pushed on Wilgy and spoke about how scummy he was most of the day. Shows town entitlement by reacting to scumreads from SPF, Esooa, and Fingers - moreso the last 2 after the Wilgy yeet- by OMGUS'ing.

Mac - Pushed the Wilgy wagon right before End of Day 1, had that reaction test gimmick on Day 2 with myself and Alexa which I doubt Mac tries to touch if he's mafia.

Nanook - Pushed on Wilgy when he was nearing the top wagon before EOD when other targets like Finger were available.

Esooa / CRichard / TSP - Esooa Day 2 got annoyed at how people were playing the game and started to go through isos; then proceeded to get mad about how no one was apparently taking it seriously and left. Then CRichard came in, start of Day 3 outed rage about the quick hammer and then left, don't remember what TSP posted but I'm willing to call this slot a "Giant Ball of Towny Frustration" and call it a day.
Now we need someone to sub into this slot on Day 4 so that we have one slot be a modified Team Mafia slot.

SPF - Her reaction to my push and specific posts about "You shouldn't have to townread me to try to work with me otherwise you'll be conf-biased" and a select few others felt kinda towny to me. I had to look back and see why I put her as town and it was pages 18 and 19 where she progresses a read on Alexa that feels pretty natural, defends Nanook from Esooa's suspicion and says that she thinks his recent posts at that point were towny, which is the "stance taking" part I was talking about that I thought was missing from SPF's iso originally.

This is pretty much in order.

i don't know

i'm bad at this

mind talking about your townread on falcon more? i think that's the thing that made me the most concerned about you while catching up tbh

i don't know. i was doubting it earlier looking through wilgy's iso because they barely talked about each other, but he made those posts and i said "hmm these seem fine like he's doing his idiosyncratic thing rather than going with the flow of the consensus" and then you came in and were like "actually, these are bad" and so i doubted myself again and feel like i have nothing useful

You've had several posts re: player's having concrete reasons, or not their reasoning not being valid to you (I mean, you've just done it to me)...



That's one way for Wolves to appear solvey, while actually just discrediting players for reasons that are difficult to quantify...like, you've said my read on you isn't genuine. I guess that means you think I'm Maf?



The thing is tho, I'm not, and my read on you is real.

meh i'm back to thinking falcon believes what he's saying

i have actually voted dolby in the poll now given that he has done ~nothing to make me believe he is town so far

If anyone has any reason to confidently say Falcon is town and can give reasons why I'd like to know because everyone else looks townier/has reasons to be town over him.

ok hi i am here

Like I'm fine with either Falcon or Alison/Dolby slot going over, same reasoning as "Everyone else has reasons to be townread over them" and that's been it.

tsp agreeing on falcon maf makes me feel fine on the vote

though i need to check who tsp subbed in for but i think crichsoa

ok yes crichsoa

but yes tsp has a good falcon read so that's fine

Yes the Esooa/CRich slot.

Which I think is just town due to "ball of rage" from both of them-
and I'm not really looking to vote that slot ever.

TSP thinking he can read falcon is a legit thing, he did it when he subbed into a scum slot with me on RYM but like specifically because he thought falcon was 3P, and he apparently had his read on falcon right every time in the last so yeah his approach there is towny and probably sheepable
