For listo to just say he’s most sus of exactly what I’m thinking [plus nook] he’d be painting himself deep into a corner if wolf, unless we’re all wrong about Martin/TH.

We know that Michelle had something similar (the killing framer role, which kills anyone that visits the person they framed and isn't an investigative), so there could be more conditional KP the mafia has.

Flea promised to tryhard but I'm not really seeing it. Fae've still been overall townie on play and if Martin flips red I'm pretty sure fae're cleared because in that world TH is pushing them as the next most viable misexe to try to save Martin. So I'm just going to let the Martin flip resolve faer for me.

I'm waiting on interactions, i can resolve myself easily.

In fact, lets do it. Lets draw the NK.

Heads up, I'm feelin pretty sour on your slot. The Flea is lookin for blood.

Probably just flea, alison if I'm really tinfoiling

Now that is some tinfoil, talk me through your thinking here? Because I haven't seen much thinking from you and I keep forgetting you're in the game.

And call me crazy but I think Flea might be town

So pull an overeager AoPS mafia god wannabe and kill everyone else?

-never mentions Ender until d2, where they don’t have a read on him. Very helpful
-helpfully offers many mech things that mafia might be able to do, like how kidnapping works
-has that weird inside info with honey about something bad happening to her and “did it trigger”. Honey implied it was mafia, and TH also said it was mafia, but she doesn’t push it, so I guess she assumed everything was all hunky dory with their giggly whispers. This is probably that “soft claiming” that TH says they did. I have no earthly idea what that is, but it means nothing to me.
-unapologetically leads the ‘HK is bad’ homecoming wagon
-homecoming is canceled

why do you think nanook is wolfy? Like he hasn't really registered on my radar at all, which is pretty typical for nanook lately.

I have no idea where the kill himself bit comes in or what you're talking about there

I was referencing how Sean's role didn't allow him to take an IC post from the mod, which suggests that this IC post is probably legit

I've said it before but I feel like he isn't really interacting with people. Where I come from what he is doing is wolf behavior. And just something feels off about all of his posts to me.

Where I come from thats normal nanook behavior. Interacting with other players is overrated

He starts out as typical nanook, is sick, is slanking, is not AI for him at all.
He comes in, sheeps alison and mac on ender, that's a good look. It's only a bad look if nanook is teamed with ender and one of alison/mac b/c he would know ender isn't going over d1. Will have to check the vote movements (I think someone posted them already?)

That's about all he does D1.
D2 he starts with saying to re-read the flips b/c michelle might not have been a wolf given falcons role. Could be either wolfy sewing paranoia or townie being paranoid, kinda depends on how he pushes that narrative throughout the day.
he and I have an argument on whether or not michelle or falcon is the more likely NK. Nanook says michelle I said falcon. The way falcon was poking at Ender in DVC tells me they were not paired, and I believe the ender flip more than I believe any of the flips other than mine. Falcon is the townie in this death bucket for sure. Michelle might have flipped "wrong" but I'm not putting stock in that.

Then he talks about alison being kidnapped and whether or not that's from mafia, town, or what, and whether or not alison should be granted NK immunity again. He says she should have it, I agree, she's like just town.

Then the "kill scotty for free" thing happened with the Prosecutor. Nanook says to take that. I also agreed with that. I think scotty is town now given how he's played the last day and a half, but at the time it seemed like a reasonable thing to explore.
Kinda thinking the prosecutor is mafia based on my town read of scotty.

I claim the red on TSP, nanook says checks are unreliable, but later says "he'll follow the mech" when determining who he thinks is most likely wolfy. Kinda sus on that but overall I do town read him throughout D1/2

D3 sheeps alison and mac on gnome, gnome flips town. Alison/mac/nanook open wolfing pack? highly doubtful. nanook pocketed by one of those two? if he is it's alison and he does "hard town read her" so eh? maybe?
Don't think alison is a wolf though so maybe just a meld between the three of them.

Kinda want to just say nanook is town here and move on.

I’m just like…

If listo is bad, he’s painted himself into a corner. That’s just bad wolf gameplay IMO unless he thinks his top scum reads of Martin and TH won’t get lynched for a while, setting up for..another desperation soup kill?

But they will, surely. Maybe he’s banking on nook getting lynched before him and one of Martin/TH being town.

Which I would never do lol. I much prefer playing as a wolf because I do better as one. I honestly see no universe where Nanook is town.

Scotty wrote: ↑Thu Jul 22, 2021 2:25 pm Wait ok there’s some ability that Dolby wasn’t aware of that gave a gun to Mac, which lobotomized him. Ima call that the Lobotomy Gun.

Dolby received 1 of 3 guns: 1 HK denies receiving. I’ll call that the Invisible Gun. 1 Dolby used normally. I’ll call that the Bwap Bwap Gun. 1 Seanzie blew up with. I’ll call that the Horseshoe Gun. Those all seem to be from one ability.

Haven’t heard of anyone else receiving a gun, so I’m dubious there are any more gun powers. There’s also a chance mac was the redirected recipient of a gun where HK should have received it.
When Ender gave me a random ability- which I guess I’ll buy- if I received the power that gives out 3 guns I would expect someone else to have used it. So I’d like to think I probably have a…Lobotomy Gun.

That probably doesn’t help town if I use it lol

Dammit I really wanna be useful
