It feels like fingersplints was saved by this last minute Wilgy wagon and she is currently my top suspect.
Why wasn't I saved by that EOD wagon?

You could be, you're still in my immediate suspects. I called out finger specifically because I remember she was the lead wagon by a significant amount before. I was absent during the end of EOD and don't know how long you were a lead wagon for (though I know you were a candidate for the exe).

Note: This is not a thorough rereading, just wanted to get my current state of the game thoughts into thread.

My Dizzy D1 read will have to be re-evalled. I can't hold that one just because I think I have meta. I will not lie that I am pre-disposed to thinking town. Will appreciate other reads.

Creature is not a slot I think we should care about today. If he is scum then he's on the back of several other good scum but I honestly think EOD1 is just kinda clearing for him.

Boq is my blind spot and the fact that he was the first one to bring up the JJJ/Him/Alison probable wolf is just browny points and I love it.

This isn't a horrible readslist. I would put Dizzy lower but it seems like you are re-evalling him anyway. I think Creature is town too but for slightly different reasons - he showed up at two EODs where a town LHF was run down and spent the entire time bitching and whining about how we're getting it wrong when he could have just sat there, voteparked falcon/Wilgy and started eating popcorn if he was scum.

How confident are you on your Rondo read?

Posted: **Sun Jul 03, 2022 9:00 am**

I am feeling slightly tempted to ego policy JJJ on the pure arrogance of assuming that if Mac/JJJ/Alison are all consensus town we don't miss twice in a row unless one of us is mafia.

Turbulent. The vibe is good, but the solving is turbulent. I still feel mostly okay about this POE group, perhaps with Wilgy added:

Creature
Dyslexicon
EnderWiggin
fingersplints
RondoDimBuckle

While acknowledging town accounts exist for these slots. Much of my own turbulence is that many suspects I have called out have been vouched for by someone, often by a town read. That can be healthy enough, but it's challenging. Maybe this is how mountainous feels.
Has this changed at all?
Hey Rondo.

If I told you there was a wolf in that list, who would you say it was?

GTH? Finger. I was worried about the wiggly vote saving her and I am not the only one who thinks that apparently. But the question is who on that wagon is partnered with finger

Ender's posts continue to look fake to me. These early posts today look like standard table-setting spam to show that I'm doing things when the only real substance present is to place a vote for me. Everything else looks like, as I have suggested before about Ender, going through the motions.

Alison wrote: ↑Sun Jul 03, 2022 5:50 am I agree with Boq that JJJ/Boq were the two most likely shot targets for mafia to make last night. (As he says, I don't think I'd be shot because I had some sus on me, and those two had none.) There are two main possibilities in my mind:

1) JJJ/Boq has a mafia in it.
2) Seanzie was tunnelling a mafia and was killed for his reads.

If it is 1), I'd say it's more likely to be JJJ. If it's 2), it's probably Ender.

I have limited time today and will likely be focusing on those two + fingersplints as my priority investigations.
Seanzie was far from tunnelling me what???

Also if it's me I don't kill Seanzie here tbh. Depending on my partners I want to kill in the ... Actually with the sus on Jay and you last phase I could kill Seanzie.

Marmot wrote: ↑Sat Jul 02, 2022 9:54 pm Things I noticed when rereading Alison's Day 2.

I feel that Alison has had a less than significant impact on this game, which is why I wanted to review her. There are a couple players in this game who know my meta well enough that I think it would be basically a scum claim for them to scumread me. Alison is one of them, and she has offered defenses of me throughout the game thus far, which I think is a good sign that she is town.

I reread some of her ISO from Rave Master Mafia (where she was mafia recently), and she made a BS case on sean in that game (it was an omgus case, and also a bad case on sincerity). I haven't seen anything like that here, nor have I seen some other patterns from that game, such as bringing up players to talk about without mentioning why she wants to talk about them. Alison is talking about players here with much more specificity. Alison does have a very different position in the thread. She was under heavy duress in that game from the getgo, and on a two-person mafia team with an afk teammate. She is fairly unanimous town in this game.

I do disagree with Alison's case on the fingersplints case. My confidence is starting to wane on that read as the game goes on and we keep missing wolves, but I still believe in it. Per the case in P#2293, I think that point number 4 is massive town ndicator, and I put more stock into that than the other points against her. But I do like that Alison brought up that point.
Why is there so much padding on this read/post, Marmot?

You say like three things that are completely waffling and give nothing.

Marmot wrote: ↑Sun Jul 03, 2022 12:03 am I'm going to make an extremely wild read and say that everyone who has posted so far today is town, and the wolves are just silently sitting in wolf chat.
I'm gonna put a big ol' "why" in that response?

These are some examples of posts that, in my view, represent a problem for the Ender process. First, I'm not sure they achieve much. Marmot is getting poked over some surface stuff in a way that suits Day 1 more than Day 3 (e.g., "padding on a post"), Dizzy gets a "maybe" read, and Alison gets night kill wifom. These things exist and don't strike me as likely to lead anywhere.

Instead, the only thing that does have immediate discernible purpose, to me, is the vote on me. This reads list also raises questions, both about its sincerity and about the validity of the process that leads to it. Ender has spoken some this game about a general sense of discomfort or unease that "there's a deepwolf". In exploring that now we have vague vibe credit for Alison and "browny points" for Boquise over a single night kill comment. But I am so evil that I warrant a vote in his first post of Day 3. That doesn't make sense to me.

I acknowledge that I can have bias in this exchange, so I would greatly appreciate outside perspectives.

I find it unlikely, already, that I will be unvoting Jay today.

First of all, the orange thing just looks fake.

More importantly, Ender's entrance into this Day 3 featured some direct quotes of other players to ask questions, make assertions, or answer prompts. That can reflect a concerted effort to engage. I, the player receiving the immediate Day 3 vote, get this third-person perspective criticism as an appeal to the reading audience, and not to me. Ender: if you should be directly engaging with anyone in this game thread right now, it's me.

Looks like agenda.

As a separate, perhaps less important point (green): have you ever seen me play before? I don't think we have been in the same game.

I've watched and read and had a few people tell me about you. Hence the "I really wanted you to be town" thing. Because I've been told you are the glue that makes a good town.

I don't actually think we've played together before.

Why should I be directly interacting with you most of all? I have stated I have a read.

I have stated I'm building a case.

Until I'm set on that case I have no direct reason to interact with you since my reasons amount to "Mah feelungs" and that means negative import.

I'm instead appealing to the general consensus to see if they think or agree with me, while building a case.

This is not the first time I've done it this way, albeit usually I try to have part of a case ready but I'm ngl I'm dealing with other stuff and don't have as much time as I'd like.

It was specifically a period of the day when they were lead wagon.

They popped in and answered a few questions and poked a few things and then was just all "That's the best I can do" and dropped off the face of the earth again.

At the time I read it and was like "That doesn't feel like someone who has a team. That feels like someone who saw mounting pressure in thread and didn't know how to properly respond."

I re-read it overnight and I was like "Ender that was a stupid impression."

I also don't know how you town read Dizzy so strongly. To what extent you expand on that is in your court.

The townread on Dizzy is leaning heavily on a meta thought I have used successfully three times so far (Twice as town, once as scum. Scum game was... GOC this year I think?)

However Seanzie did note that he had a thought Dizzy was playing non-standard to fool him and I'm not as confident on it as I was yesterday. I'll grant you that slot is probably the most volatile as it is pending re-read. And I've promised myself not to use that meta thing in my re-read, but I'll 100% admit I may be biased.

If you scumread Dizzy I will accept your specific thoughts on why and evaluate them.

Re: Nate

I'll grant you he's easy to push (Used this in Champs kinda), but in champs he felt like his thoughts were more nuanced and built around the findings he had. This game he seems passive, out of sorts, and entirely unwilling to grapple with anyone or have any hard stances. He admits it himself, which is a minor point in his favour.

Can you talk to me about what you found in his post history that you think as town?

JJJ/Ender has blown up with surprising speed and ferocity and I am struggling to understand why in the absence of a clear catalyst. You've both made it clear that you have gripes with the other's posting and it's more than just Seanzie's death, but in actually explaining your reads, you both tend towards generalities like "they're not cohesively town solving" and "their posts continue to be fake". Neither of you seemed particularly interested in attacking the other yesterday and now within 2 pages we have a thunderdome.

Can the both of you briefly describe what your thoughts were on the other person yesterday and how they evolved to such harsh reads today?

Do you have an opinion already?
They were mostly null for me yesterday, though they did fit the profile of "middle Falcon voter" (and they now also fit the profile of "middle Wilgy voter"). But I noticed something that made me wonder if I should be paying closer attention to them so I figured I'd see if there are strong feelings either way in the thread. I know you voted for them at one point.

(The thing I noticed really isn't anything to get excited about it just made me "hmm", and I'll be sharing what it is, it's not like a cryptic "tell" that I'll never explain)
what is a "middle voter"? Imo I sparked Wilgy to garner more votes when I voted them tbh

I mean middle of the wagon, which is often a good spot for wolves that want to push a mischop along but avoid responsibility for it. WIlgy was a wagon three times yesterday. Once was just Marmot and not for very long, the second was Dizzy/Creature, and the third is the one that went over, with you/Marmot/Sean/Dizzy/Ender. Dizzy's vote especially is in an interesting spot if we think Wilgy was pushed to save someone else, because Ender/Finger/Wilgy were tied at 3 votes at the time.

Yesterday you had a theory that wolves hoped you'd be a pawn in a Marmot mischop, do you still think so?

You've both made it clear that you have gripes with the other's posting and it's more than just Seanzie's death, but in actually explaining your reads, you both tend towards generalities like "they're not cohesively town solving" and "their posts continue to be fake". Neither of you seemed particularly interested in attacking the other yesterday and now within 2 pages we have a thunderdome.

Can the both of you briefly describe what your thoughts were on the other person yesterday and how they evolved to such harsh reads today?

This isn't really new. I tried to eliminate Ender on Day 2 and was probably the biggest reason his wagon ended the day at 3 votes. I summarized my views yesterday here (click). How much of this thread have you read?

I'll grant you he's easy to push (Used this in Champs kinda), but in champs he felt like his thoughts were more nuanced and built around the findings he had. This game he seems passive, out of sorts, and entirely unwilling to grapple with anyone or have any hard stances. He admits it himself, which is a minor point in his favour.

Can you talk to me about what you found in his post history that you think as town?

I will cover this soon when I review everyone.

I see tbh
imo it is the final wagon that matters the most.

Yeah, I guess? But considering how low-key I have been playing with very limited time, I dont think wolves know what I am doing really.

Here is a not hot take I have after binge reading both G1 and G6:
Town obsessively yeets the LHF and the wolves are usually the "yeh you're just town" of the players. They do have thread influence, they do make some pushes and do make some cases, but mostly it is town harming town. So yeah "middle voters" sound like a good idea.

Will read everything from D2 on, and then I will solve the game.

I had a paranoid thought about you yesterday tbh, after mulling over you saying we play alike and stuff.

I think most people who knows me would be wolf reading me rn, because I am from an outsider's perspective loafing around and being "bored". Letting things transpire. I wonder if that is how you can sometimes play as scum too, in contexts like this tbh
