Yes. I'm actually 2/3 on Capage I'm pretty sure - I misread him the first time we played (anni mash 2018) but then read him correctly as villager in 2 recent games. Was an easy read as I found him super villagery from the moment he posted in those games, and I got the opposite feeling here.

Pillaging as opposed to villaging? :creep:

It was good wordplay. If you're town, it's your job to judge pillagers.

I should point out I agreed with him.

Do you like killing, or grilling?

Empoof is gut mafia for me. Can't really explain it now. Kill me tonight if you don't want me to flesh this out please.

Guess I'm voting with my two large posts as a guideline. Anyone I haven't talked about I'm probably ambivalent about.

Whoa, merlin articulated much of my D1 mood. Countershade on GH.

Who exactly are you asking to kill you, and why? :inquisitive:

I might join in, but I need to read the thread first.

I'm considering moving back to ladd, but otoh Mont's catchup wall didn't exactly rock my world.

No I don't like killing or grilling!

oh. i have a friend i've read correctly actually literally 100% of the time over 50 or so irl games, so that's a read strength i'd trust. 3 games in which you were only right 2 of them, mebbe not xD

i liked insaner staking a LITERALLY 100% read strength on someone, bc i dont think a bad ever does that, but him walking it back some mitigates it a little

Fair enough. Where are you at with regards to wolf reads?

trying to figure out what i think about general. i think i like him going against the grain with his read on me, but it's something i've done as a bad before, almost a refuge in audacity type calling someone out that every other player thinks is good

idk yet. d1 is usually just "shrug kill someone at semi-random who isn't acting like they care" and get our night actions in, and then use that info to start getting real lynches done

going to spend some time focusing on ppl with votes and figuring out what i think, since it seems a lot more serious on d1 here

Monty, shouldn't be considered a soft claim. I was saying that today (right now) would be more active.

GH, unrelated to whatever gut read you have I'm curious how you would describe my wolf play to someone who's never played for me (like, explaining it to merl1n).

Tally:
4 El Barto (Montmorency, Zack, Empoof, ladd)
3 Montmorency (El Barto, Pzelda, Cuthillius,)
3 Ladd (Fable, Logic, Egix)
1 Choxorn (Newyn)
2 PZelda (Insaner, GH)
1 Newyn (Choxorn)


Not voting: Merl1n, Dyachei, Csargo

This seems correct?

Ladd wagon looks the purest to me

does no one defending el barto or montmorency at all make them more likely good?

yeah um

with all due respect I think your reads are rather strange, gh

Vote: Choroxn

Thought I did that earlier but I think nl missed it, was probably at the bottom of a post

I was defending Barto all day. But I was the only one.

I saw someone point out that those 2 weren't even the main pushers on El Barto - he was mostly pushed by Zack and you also agreed with it, and I since the two of you are my top villager reads, someone, maybe even more than 1 person, had argued that my point about Barto being spewed is moot since the people I think are wolfy that scum read Barto have actually barely pushed him. But to me, ladd's and GH stances on Barto look exactly like how wolves treat consensus scum read villagers - call them wolfy and then sit back while another villager (Zack) does all the dirty work of convincing others to vote them.


Barto's big post and my comment on it:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

I'm trying to think if I can give you something more other than it just seems natural to me. The answer is sadly no =/ It just strikes me as him giving his... unfiltered? impressions of things. He isn't trying to force any conclusions with his comments which makes it look genuine. He has very little volume and I know it's not a good town case but I think the reasons to wolfread him are way, way worse. It's literally just Zack's two post read where he said that El Barto was wolfy for not voting me along with his joke. That's literally it. It's an okay read to make 5 minutes into the game, but I just checked and Zack actually never updater his read, the only time he gave something else was this post:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Which is like, sure it's unproductive, but villagers cast votes on non contributors all the time as well. He never commented on Barto's read post.


Sorry it took so long, got distracted a couple of times.

Not in this player list.

Though I'd say a couple of us are defending monty, albeit softly

vote: El Barto

We might lynch pzelda here tbh

I don't believe 100%-never-rescind levels for insaner but he probably has some idea and it's like 70% likely

how do role claims work here? if your going to be lynched are you allowed to claim your power? ive played in games where you can and in games where you cant

my problem with that is i think insaner might be bad, so unless he's willing to stake a VERY strong claim on something that he can be held accountable for i'm reluctant to follow his lead

for merl1n

I do think Monty looks better, and I'm less comfortable with my company on that wagon

plus Barto is definitely pretty low-key

and I think it's a helpful lynch no matter what

You can as long as you don't quote anything. But since this is a role madness game just claiming isn't going to be clearing.

Vote: El Barto

Outside of Mont, the wagon's essentially my entire town list so I'm feeling good about this.

If pzelda is town I wouldn't knock insaner for it.

Though I'd pay attention to how his reaction and PoV shifts based on the knowledge during day 2
