I would say it's not very contentious right now though. He could choose to do all manner of things. Pushing on a consensus town mid catch up off what seems to be a random spark doesn't feel like the mindset I expect of mafia nook.Alison wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 2:59 amI appreciate how you and I have been quoting the same posts and forming exact opposite reads off them the entire game, Mac.MacDougall wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 2:57 amI'm not sure it doesn't make him obvious town actually.Alison wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 2:54 am nanook can be scum for this Hally push tbh
I've been thinking back and forth about it, I hated it on first sight but I didn't want to be biased and automatically scumread someone just because he scumreads my townread. But I was thinking about the way wagons were forming and how Mac helped a lot in consolidating the wagons, and his vanity wagon on Hally seriously stuck out to me. I think he's hiding there because there's a lot of uncertainty surrounding nutella/SPF/JPIC/whoever and he doesn't want to take a stance on his buddy until it becomes clearer which way the wind is blowing.
I think I'm down for a nook wagon as well.
Why would a mafia manufacture this unless specifically all the main wagons are mafia? What benefit to going after Hally of all people? From a position of vulnerability in the POE especially.
I will add that it came after I saw a post Hally made than made me sceptical of her too so the timing was somewhat of a mindmeld.
I'll put the nook suspicion on the back burner for now. It's not happening today anyway. The response I have is that if it's like one mafia and two town in the mix of people who could die, he doesn't want to get caught on the wagon of the dead townie especially if he's already in the POE, but he doesn't want to bus and potentially help exe a buddy unless he really has to either. Hiding on vanity wagons in a contentious wagon situation is definitely a scummy move. Ted did it last game.

JPIC gives me little reason to defend him. I have reservations because of that. He too lacks having made any effort to appear town. He would be doing a serious disservice to his team.Alison wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 3:01 amok.MacDougall wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 3:00 am Regarding Nanook I tend to read him well.

How much would you be up for a JPIC wagon today? I'm shocked he doesn't have more votes and the way pressure has vanished off him is bad. He's done scummy stuff and then unabashedly done basically nothing in response to multiple attempts to get people to do things.
It's like a policy exe, except it actually has a high chance of hitting scum!

I'm not sure. I have SPF in my POE. I think Colin (I know you disagree on this one but bear with me), JPIC, LC all look worse than her, which makes her the ~4th or ~5th (maybe nutella could surpass her once I hear your case on nutella/juliets being T/W because I really think juliets is town) most scummy player in the game. If I know I'm town and I can read SPF as the 4-5th scummiest, then it's not a massive stretch that some other town could consider her 1st or 2nd scummiest.MacDougall wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 3:08 am I think if SPF is legitimately mafia that someone pushing her has TMI and it's distancing. I don't see any way a town with no information could consider her a top candidate personally. But obviously she doesn't have three mafia voting her. Right?
Dizzy, i do not see anything towny about them. tim and spf are in my null reads so that's okay i guess. oh and juliet, is she in her town meta as well?MacDougall wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 2:58 amWhat reads do you disagree with?Poison Chan wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 2:56 amokay although i don't and can't sheep your reads because i think most of them are coming from some sort of meta and sheeping other consensus town reads?! but thanks for telling me how you came to that conclusion.MacDougall wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 2:48 amDizzy feels town and is being townread by other townreads.

I think this list is probably town, but I have reservations:
DrWilgy - Specifically I cannot resolve some of the angles he's taken in the game, and DrWilgy appears to have finally regathered his wim from years gone by which makes him probably the best player in the entire game ergo foolish to ever trust.
dyachei - I cannot help but feel like they would have towncleared themselves to me if they were town. Have played the game quite myopically.
Herm - The ratio that is the frequency with which I have seen them post, or mentioned vs. the impact they have left on me leaves some to be desired. I would like to see some more reasoned perspectives.
Oddmerta - Despite early clears, appears to have been overwhelmed in a way that can be struggling to find legitimate pathways as mafia, or simply just town that is coasting on being largely townread.
sprityo - Has been scummy in their meta way but I feel they have been spewed clear through TMI.
This list is essentially pure null avocado assholes that should have their feet tickled until they show us their role cards:
ColinIsCool - I don't remember a thing.
Long Con - I can't recall them even posting.
This list is the current POE:
Justplayingitcool - Has been scummy since the start and done really nothing to warrant a clear besides lolcat. Clearing this guy for that behaviour is ridiculous.
NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME - Meta read. Hasn't been mindmelding. Hasn't been talking to me much at all. Feels like someone who is struggling to find legitimate paths to take.
nutella - Meta read. Hasn't been mindmelding. Ignoring the fact I am scumreading her (generally when I scum read her as town she gets mad and either omgussing me or calls me out for being a dumbass).
tedxtr
also, i think there's a few players you have been reading in terms of midmeld ratios, is that the only way you should look at them?
you are playing with me for the first time, should you really trust me to put that high up in your list?
Mindmelding with some players I have meta on is a reliable way for me to solve them. Certainly not everyone. We have no flips or anything empirical yet so I am just using the tools I have.
I do believe I've played with you. Also hosted you. Also you seem town and are being town read by some of my townreads. I don't have any issues with you.

can u empathize with other ppl who find it frustrating how much effort they're putting, while u dont put as much effort and u expect for ppl to correctly townread u?
Nutella is super good at reading most people. Juliets isn't typically a hard person to read especially for someone with as much experience playing with her as nutella does.
I've said it a few times before but this is the strongest reason why SPF should be kept alive because I believe she is the kind of player who will make her alignment more obvious as time goes by. I mentioned wanting to see her realtime with Hally a bit to see if stuff changes since they're similar in personality, and it's one of the big reasons why I much prefer the JPIC wagon over her.staypositivefriend wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 3:09 am i do think that you're most likely town, so i'd ask you to keep an open mind and consider switching your vote so that i have more time to towntell & integrate myself into the game

Also the way she engaged me earlier in the game about the rogue felt like she was trying to downplay the need to rogue hunt because she is the rogue.

Also Mac doing it now is not suspicious because the idea of people being Rogues was brought back into his mind by my own case on Samu. The tell is when nobody has talked about Rogues at all and then you suddenly bring it up for no reason. Mac has reasons and he has been reminded of people being Rogue recently.
I actually just brought it up because it occurred to me twice prior and I hadn't mentioned it at those times. But I am in a different mindset atm and was offering nuanced nutella reads with a clear mind and players here actually listening to me.Alison wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 3:17 am I no longer endorse the Samu 3P read.
