I think we're at that stage we don't even know what to do so if anyone ever bothers to grab an ISO and biasedly slap wolf motivation behind every post that already makes a better case than any static POE we keep flip-flopping around.

I mean, yeah, we can make a wolf case out of anyone at this point. It's all about construing intentions.

But we're in a good position mech-wise, at least as far as we can tell, and we have a red to chop today, so I don't mind ilario casing the shit out of you like this. It's good to poke and prod at the fringes to see what shakes out. Ideally someone slaps LP about a bit too, for instance. Actually I think if this game is lacking something it's proper cases. People are largely resorting to single-post reads or generic 'I think they're town/scum' without much expansion. I don't mean we need just the conventional iso & analyse, but it might help for people to actually go back into isos and check their assumptions again to challenge or confirm them a bit before repeating the same reads ad nauseum.

"But we're in a good position mech-wise"

Nope. We aren't. If my count is correct, wolves can get up to five soup kills tonight and that'd bring us to 6 v 4 not counting sabie's vig shot.

Okay true. But at least as of right now we've got a good portion of the playerlist cleared. And there's always a chance the wolves mess up the soup, if even one person has fudged their role claim enough.

I'm feeling strangely optimistic. That worries me.

The soup chef isn't outed if all their guesses are correct.

Ehhh I think Dya and I were the progenitors of the Guillo wagon at EoD most of all.

I also suspect dyachei but the Marmot kill still holds some cred.

i'm still holding the marmot kill against dya even though everybody else has thrown it to the side. I remember game state was highly suggesting that c4 was gonna use his shot on marmot so why not just have dya use it to coast as fake townie. idk for sure though

That's what we were talking about. Though, still feels weird they would use their private shot on their wolfmate instead of a strong town.

Not sure if dyachei strikes me as a wolf player that would set themselves to go deep.

Tsp wolf whose lolcatting after redcheck

Creature also a wolf

Mac probably his partner who spent today trying to distance so his partners don’t look aligned to him after he does the soup kill tn

So that leaves 2 mafia left

Only thing that comes to mind is that he's cased two villagers so far (assuming LP is a villager), and he's tried to paint me as scum albeit on a smaller scale. Not sure what his reads were like wrt dizzy, marmot and tsp

Reads on known scum are pretty much non-existent. But then again he was slanking for a lot of time so that's not damning in and of itself imo.

The two things that made me go 'hmm' were (a) he very quickly had a V read on me and stuck with it through a time when no one else had that, and (b) if Wilgy and/or Mac are scum he gave them fairly easy V reads too.

But he's also towncased a lot of town / likely town along the way. And his words all make sense when doing so. And of course they do because he's Sloonei, but still.

Maybe I need to find a recent scum game to read.
