Rampage Out of Space

[Laurentus]

So: early reads...these are obviously subject to development, but will be decisive. Nulls are for wimps.

Argon: in first, claims cop, claims ridiculous n0 check on me, uses avatar basically open referencing that he is a wolf...just another day in the life for him...if he is a wolf he has partners and at least some of those partners would be saying "WTF dude?" because they don't know him. No sign of that discomfort; Argon town. *1

Chessguy: lots of posts, creates image of "let's get started" by picking at gif posters but doesn't say anything really, overeager to be read on this; probs just a wolf. *2

Csargo: throwing them gif, but a LOT of them, then shifted to words and stayed overbusy for Csargo; probs a wolf. *3

Raskol: Emphasizing "disappointed by the rand" which is code for "I claim village," doesn't mention me until he finds a way to be agreeable instead of challenging immediately so trying to stay off radar; probs a wolf. *4

Dolby: meaningless paragoning of Argon, early read of Chessguy that I disagree with, challenged and stuck to it in a good way. Town. *5

Hollowkatt: comes in swinging to draw attention, early targeting on Raskol so reval as potential w/w there, seems to be worried about me an appropriate amount. Town *6

Nanook: enters by establishing slanker cred, immediately threatens to kill the person that helps him. Town *7


Winston: entry by Hardclaim, no additional posts. lean town *8

Lewynn: entry is softballed off previous post, but second post indicates reading of full thread, then back to softballing off another entry. Probs wolf *9

Pzelda: opens with a developed reads post which he just got wolf bombed for last time I saw him and he didn't get bombed for it here. May just have done a better job of it, but... Probs just town. *10

Panda: points out Pzeldas read post as unique, which is accurate, but wolfs it just for that without challenging the reads. Wolf *11

Many not posted yet. Gnome, Ibn, Laurentus, El, Vro...get your stuff together. *12

Actually quite smart not to phrase this in terms of top-town-to-top-scum, because I can make very few conclusions from this post. I shall try my best anyway.

*1: Eh, I kinda agree with this read, since I was just playing Wolf with Argon a short while ago, and also, the fact that Tim draws this much attention to him by placing him first on his list makes me feel good about this slot. Will check the rest of Argon's play with a critical eye, given that he's one of the few I have meta of.

*2: Okay, so Tim reads this slot as Wolf for picking on the GIF-poster and then... proceeds to read that same GIF-poster as scum, too? Could be w/w, if he didn't end up pushing this case, and trying to distance.

*3: Was he the one who died? Because this is a great look for Csargo, especially given that the game I played with the CFCers recently had a scum bud of mine, Guillo, actively posting GIFs for the majority of the game, and Tim actually town-read that.

*4: Meh. Did Tim end up pushing Rask at all?

*5: This read feels very low-effort. Which increases my discomfort with other-me.

*6: Given how well coordinated HK and Tim were in the last game I played with them, and given how they like to pull crazy stunts, I can make no conclusions from this post. Could be trying to appease Town!HK (although I imagine this would let HK call him out for pocketing if done badly), and yet he mentions the possibility for HK to be Wolf. Huh. Actually, yeah, thinking about this some more, this probably is an attempt to try and appease HK with a Town-read that looks genuine-ish, while setting up a world for HK to be Wolf if needed, later down the road. So into Town-leans HK goes for me.

*7: Again feels very easy.

*8: What did Winston hard-claim again? The ISO feature is going to take some getting used to.

*9: What is soft-balling and was Lewwyn indeed guilty of it?

*10: Not a bad take, actually. Could be a genuine town-read.

*12: Nah, lol, this is so par for the course for Panda that I can't imagine anyone took this seriously, especially as the last game he and Tim played in, Panda was Town. Which makes me think Panda could actually be Town here, too. Although it's given such an weak reason that it might just be a wolf-read of a bud he never intends to push, either.

[Laurentus]

Well that would require me to hardclaim alignment cop and I would only get mafia to believe me.

I have never heard of an alignment cop who can enter the game and read someone D1. Also, how convenient.

[Laurentus]

I think the wolves will kill you first for me claiming to have cop checked you as a Mason.

Er, no, the Wolves would kinda want to kill you? Also, why aren't you dead?

[Laurentus]

I'm not sure about that. I actually find his later posts wolfy. They're a stretch of four posts, which could be one. It looks like activity for activity's sake. I like HK's reaction to this post of yours and I think Csargo might be just Csargo again. At least that's where I'm at rn.

Vote: Raskolnikov

Yeah, good look, overall, but what does "Csargo might just be Csargo" mean?

[Laurentus]

Tim's reads are highly Tim-indicative.



That's a common posting style what are you talking about
I know you're not new to this mafia thing

What on earth does "Tim-indicative" mean? Don't like this.

[Laurentus]

There are a couple at least but nevermind that for now.



and wolfy bro.

No, definitely mind. What were the flaws?

[hollowkatt]

@Laurentus C4 is dead, killed by wolves at night.

[Laurentus]

vote: Winston Hughes

RVS vote?

[Laurentus]

Looked like you were fucking around first and foremost and doing town stuff second. Makes the town stuff look real.

Is this for real?

[Laurentus]

Okay, question at this point: Is C4 an open-wolf when he woofs?

[Laurentus]

spricht keiner von euch deutsch?

oder ist es so, dass meine Lügen mich eingeholt haben und niemand mehr etwas glaubt, was ich "hardclaim"?

Ich spreche so bisschen, aber nicht viel, weil ich verrostet bin. Ich habe eine Deutsche Mutter.

[El-ahrairah]

On the other hand you are handing these things out like candy.

You know he's dead, right?

[El-ahrairah]

Okay, question at this point: Is C4 an open-wolf when he woofs?

He's dead Jim, DEAD!

And town.

[hollowkatt]

You know he's dead, right?

clearly he doesn't, which is why I tagged him

You don't think this is theater do you? Cause kinda I want to say it is

[El-ahrairah]

Well, this is kinda awkward given Tim's flip, innit?

How can you know that Tim is dead, but not C4? They were announced in the same post!

[Laurentus]

How can you know that Tim is dead, but not C4? They were announced in the same post!

Because I didn't give as much of a shit about the townies as I did about the wolf. But oh.

[El-ahrairah]

You don't think this is theater do you? Cause kinda I want to say it is

Well given that he seems to know Tim's flip and doesn't know C4's, even though they were announced together, I'm thinking this could be an attempted fake-derp that backfired because TMI slip.

Unvote: Dolby

[Laurentus]

Okay, so Rask and C4 were the Townies. An utterly puzzling choice for the Wolves to kill on N1.

[Laurentus]

What were your reasons for voting Dolby beforehand? If they were actually good, then this looks really bad for you.

[El-ahrairah]

He said something about Rask on D1 that made me think "this is a really bad look for Dolby if Rask flips town" and Rask did flip town, and until now nobody was pinging me hard enough to make me want to move my vote from Dolby.

But dude, you had to open spoilers for EACH player to find their alignment so how you could've just not seen C4 is boggling my mind.

[El-ahrairah]

Also, what TMI?

Too Much Information

I.e. the wolves know more than town and may make perspective slips because they can't help but reveal info they have.

pretty much yeah

Vote: Laurentus

[Laurentus]

Oh! TMI in that I would pay more attention to a scum-bud flipping than other townies? Okay, I rescind my "this is a bad look" for El. That's actually a damn good look. Hilariously wrong, but please don't murder should I be the lynch.

[Laurentus]

I know what the term means, my dude, I meant what was TMI about it, but I just figured it out regardless.

Hi! I'm the one who brought the dichotomy to Els attention

clearly he doesn't, which is why I tagged him

I mean you do what you wanna do I guess?
