You maintain that there is nothing wolfy about Gira and nothing townie about Wilgy. That means my solve is ass-backwards. Assume I am town. Who do you think is trying to egg me on into a bad solve or stand by while I tunnel a townie?

I'm willing to consider to idea that I'm completely wrong and that you are not. I think Wilgy's posts are fairly ok on tone and I could see Gira being a wolf.

But to answer your question-- not sure but probably Dizzy, and I do feel like something is going on between the two of you. You initially called Dizzy wolfy for making some standard Dizzy posts, and then backed off that after they cleared Wilgy for making a nothing post that a person shouldn't be cleared for.

Realistically that should mean that the wolf team is not you/Dizzy/Wilgy-- as wolves wouldn't typically link themselves together like that so easily-- but I wonder..

I think people calling our dynamic out as weird are weird.

I scumread his early posts. Then I realized he had the exact same reads as me so I townread him.

This is normal and it is questionable to try to pretend like it's a sketchy dynamic.

Also, given that Dizzy made his reads before I made mine, and I townread Dizzy because his reads that were already in the thread matched up with my own thoughts as I caught up, what makes you think that Dizzy is the one trying to pocket/egg me on?

Re your approach to Dizzy: that's all fine and reasonable.

It's Dizzy's approach to you and the way Dizzy started clearing you basically instantly that I find odd. And some of that might be because in the only other game I played with you the two of you together, Dizzy tunneled you for the entire game, but it seems odd that you would get an insta-clear.

uhhhhh you mean the game where he was scum?

im giving luckbox for leeway here, they said they would explain their Alison vote at some point, im not all too worried about them
But from what I recalled Alison still has not said why Gira is obvious town

Yeah I got to like page 4 in rereading this morning but then got involved in real-time interactions and stopped, but I'll get back to it-- but I didn't see anything from the early Wilgy posts that should be lock-clearing, although I don't think their posts are horrible either-- they just seem like they could easily be coming from a wolf. Going to cook some breakfast and then I'll finish reading and/or ISO Wilgy and reassess.

since you are more familiar with this site, and I have no intention of talking to Alison until she answers my questions
how polarized is Wigly's meta?
also I expected a read that wasn't "I don't think he should be lock clear, but I also don't think his posts are horrible, but I think he could easily be a wolf here"
like that isn't the kind of read that I would expect you to vote on, and be so eager to kill off other's town reads of them

He is doing contrary things.

Nanook is tendant towards diplomatic play when scum.

There is a slight warning bell in that he also likes to establish an early pocket when scum (Lookin' at you Gav) but overall more rand!v

His funniness is appreciated but irrelevant to this impression.

is the thread direction set, to even argue, "contrary things" though?
(the picking gaviel to sheep, seeing gaviel is voting himself, and then voting there, is definitely something, that's for sure)
what do you mean by diplomatic?
I can agree with 3, just not the rand!v part

Contrary things don't require cohesive threadstate wut.

And diplomatic is exactly that. He plays calm and doesn't throw wrenches like the Gav vote shenanigans.

I think what really bothers me about you is the fact you say if Dizzy votes Gira and Gira flips Red, Dizzy is “Probably Town”, then in the next post you call them “Probably Town” anyways.

Someone can be townie for two reasons. I don't get this.

Yeah I've never seen it, but since I wasn't inclined to insta-clear you I'm not sure why anyone else would be either, and I wouldn't expect that Dizzy would be so polarized in his approach to you either-- so my thoughts there seem pretty reasonable.

Gavial wrote: ↑Tue Sep 28, 2021 10:08 am Instead of trying to see where they place their next vote or if they would ever consider voting Gira (your scum read.) you just decide to call them “probably town” anyway for town reading another person to add to their towncore?
That’s null AF to me.
As I said before the only logical reason you can townread that is because scum Could push Wigly from their post they made but that’s the key word “Could” doesn’t mean they would or absolutely need to.

Also now I'm not rhyming, this is a perfect example of what I was talking about earlier.

I expressed that I thought Nanook was townier. This is my process as I try to sort the game. Could I be wrong? Sure, but my experience tends towards that.

You post this, as if me townreading Nanook was not allowed or offensive. Discrediting or trying to nullify reads in earlygame.

Could it be personality clash, sure, but tell me:
Why do you need to point out how you disagree with every lean that crosses your desk?

Why would you be surprised at you not being inclined to insta-clear me but someone else being inclined to do so when you don't know how much meta they have with me? For all you know Dizzy and I have a thousand games together and he knows how to read my town tells very well.
