It doesn't matter how good your reads are if I think you are mafia. I only care about the goodness of your reads if I think you are town in the first place.
IAWY flipped town so I can trust him. What reasons have you provided me to trust you? Mac and Sloonei see something in your posting which is the only reason I'm keeping you out of the POE, but I haven't seen you do anything pro town other than shoot IAWY... which could easily have been a loud shot you are pretending is a silent one for cred.
I see that someone mentioned you were gifted a shot. Why do you think you out of all people were selected for that gift?
You’re twisting your own words tho. Of course you can trust iawy because he flipped. You literally said because he was in the poe (implying before being flipped) he had better reads in general.
But we’re talking in circles
Being town and in the POE makes you have better reads.
The problem is that being in the POE in the first place makes me unable to trust you.
But if you are in the POE and then flip town, now I can go back to your old reads (that I didn't trust) and have more faith in them knowing you are trustworthy and have good reads.
This is what happened to IAWY.
His legacy was that you and Kate were mafia.

Dizzy is never "wolfy" as a wolf. They have immaculate presentation. You need to try harder to read them, which in this gamestate is hard because of the, as you've said, "tropiness" of everything. Dizzy is well placed to be able to easily snake through in this type of gamestate. I don't think Dyslexicon has exhibited an intent to contribute to the town wincon through the lions share of their posts. Their analysis has been disjointed, they have no fire and I am also annoyed with them right now and have decided everyone making me feel bad can die for selfish reasons.
This isn’t so much a gotcha as it is a logical fallacy from my POV.

Oh, as to your last point- I don’t know- last time I got 2 guns, I shot and killed you in endgame to win. So…there’s that?
In that game you were randomly given the gun by a redirected night action, and you used it well because the mechanical gamestate meant that BlueKang had to be mafia from your point of view. The hypothetical gun giver in this game would have no reason to trust you were town (nobody had you as top town iirc) and no reason to trust that your reads would be particularly good. Someone like nutella is far more consensus town and also far more likely to have good reads - so I am wondering why this gun giver chose to give you the gun and not her.

Neon is hyperposting and shot a wolf. Also is clearly spewed not with Sabi. Neon is only a wolf in multiball.
Alison maybe... if I had gth and needed to be right between these three that's who I'd go for.
Golden less likely but also possible. A lot of people here aren't familiar with Golden but he's s-tier at wolfing and while I've vibed with him a fair bit on day 2, I think it's within his range. But I still have him a strong town lean.
I get that your baseline play is to always assume that the people being the most productive and influential are suspect and I share that mindset but it's bad mafia to hyperfixate on it to the detriment of more +ev play such as towncoring and POE play. What you're doing is just being extremely disruptive to the town's main heartbeat by doing what you are doing here. Even if it's infiltrated, it would be at most by 1 slot and that slot will be being forced to deepwolf and hard townside, they have wolf teammates that are easier snares. Let them.

Well aside from the fact that I actually am, if I am not doing so as directly as you like it's because I don't enjoy doing so and I'm trying to be democratic and certain people are townreading you that I think are either town or if not town wolves probably spewing you town.

Alison and Mac are both players that can only be trusted if they are hitting wolves. If they keep pushing town then they're definitely suspicious.
You're not towncore at all.
I pushed sabi a lot day 1. Arguably my main read. Why am I a suspect?

@Alison why do you townread me?
Because your push on Mac early D2 is the exact same "latch onto something random and tinfoil a strong consenus town player" move that you do every single town game. As mafia I think you'd find it difficult to replicate that energy and more importantly you'd be less inclined to antagonize Mac because the backlash would undermine your thread position for no real gain (since you are never going to misexe him), whereas as town you're more likely to speak your mind if you think someone is mafia backlash or not.

Creature is entitled to think we are possibly wolves. Though at this juncture I think it strongly benefits town if our team stopped dwelling on possibilities and started focusing more on probabilities. Genuinely think all town need to start analysing their play through that lens.

Personally I felt like we had some extremely good solving going on last night and a really solid POE with solid reasoning and then people came back into the thread and started causing chaos for no fucking reason and throwing random reads around instead of just playing the game in an orderly manner. Unfortunately this is not AI because that is just how some people are (Guillo and tutuu especially) but it annoys me.

Possibility that Golden, Alison, Mac contains a wolf? Of course.
Probability? Well from my perspective no it's not probable. And because it's not probable it's not something I think should be being remonstrated in the thread where other players less immersed in the game are forced to swim through where more productive content could instead be placed.
And even if it were probable, unless you think that the net result of the day 2 chop is improved by highlighting this fact over and over, it's probably better to keep it as an idea and actually force the wolf/s between us to kill a weaker teammate via the POE play that we've committed ourselves to, because the alternative is probably just a quite random end of day where the wolves just easily manipulate the wagon onto the scummiest townie.

I would like @Sloonei to comment on how he feels about the POE of 4 that me/Mac/Golden hashed out last night (112, Radishes, Marmot, SVS). Do you agree with it, do you think we're misclearing someone, do you think one of these people should be cleared, etc.
