why are you randomly quoting a tiny part of a post I made at like the beginning of D1 and using it to shade me by making it seem like it should be held to the standards of the current state of the game?I really don't see how katze isn't invested in the game

I can try and throw something together, but I seriously, seriously tired so it'll be bad so I don't want to. "I saw a few posts I didn't like and I've mentioned them before" in combination with "cape/monty/maybe ender are the best options for me rn" probably isn't good enough, rifgt? don't think I have a compelling case because, uh, it wouldn't have mattered (see: me earlier cases this game) i know I said I'd read cape and minty but I've just been spamming the thread instead of doing useful thingscan you please answer me on why you think cape is a wolf? you've ignored me twice
Oh and the fact as cape not shading me at all until I mentioned his name in a not good context :wowee:

And yeah monty is on my agenda for the day so us cape because he's kinda flown utr.
I will say we have a really solid poe, there's always tinfoil that we can bring up, but hopefully when sunbae and zack die we have at least one more wolf dead or game is over. But just laying down flat and saying "yeah I'm just town but I need to die if you can't see it" is not a thing that's going to happen either.
Also sunbae is literally in my head with each of their posts so that should amount to something lol
I was a wagon and a strong contender for vote off at some point during day 1 so I wouldn't consider myself under the radar.True, I'm getting a bit too caught up in this.

I sort of like this refute to HK's lil wallpost which Dobby says has "made up stuff" and HK gets stuff incorrect
I don't exactly know what the last part talking about Sunbae is exactly saying, like it cant be like they are noting Sunbae's postings because they are mafia since they are confirmed town yeah? I was thinking it was because Dobby wants to work with confirmed town perhaps? That would make sense to me

Did you read the post with "refutes" or are you talking about the example in this speicfic post?

yeah inconsistency. Like I think some of his posts look good but I can't help thinking he only SRed katze and that didn't go anywhere. Also I am mostly testing this wagon rn, and now that has been said, it's mostly over I guess.Not sure I like this inconsistency, like this is said then 3 hours later, boom bye newcomb

Beside I am not following you. I accused him of trying to save Ladd pretty directly. Ofc he refuted it but it doesn't change the facts. he voted me without a word when there were other options he had been sussing prior to that. What you read is me calling him out about it but also acknowledging he could ultimatly be a villager with bad timing and not verbose enough about his own progression. Hence why I tryed to pressure him to get more out.

"He switched to Dobby once Dolby flipped red" was what I wanted to type (check out HK's ISO, it's pretty clear).

why do I have almost as many posts as ender right now, this doesnt seem right, I feel like they really declined in activity from yesterday to today

newcomb seems an obvious villager imo

I really don't think anything ladd said about ender is remotely clearing, he is perfectly capable of distancing from a teammate d1 and neither of them ever felt that interested in actually killing the other, despite the supposed mutual suspicion.

I feel like it's the best way for me to play days, is to keep rereading things and if I have anything to comment on about, I do so. Mostly because I kinda have been struggalugging to get in the emperors new groove this game��

@Dobby
@Sunbae
If NC is scum, mafia exchange both Zack and Sunbae for him. Too risky. And if he's town, then you lose his apparently-prodigious town-presence. Best to give it to Zack, who dies eventually - but then you realize Zack dies tonight if there's any hint of him grabbing the vest.
So I'm the only sensible option.

Not clearing, just not in immediate POE. I think it's best to have one or both of you resolved before moving on.

I don't agree that you can only be partnered with NC (vs. it being possible) so there's no mechanical reason to clear NC first. Although I guess you are each equally TRed by now?
To reiterate for reference, I also don't think you can be paired with cape, so that's potential information. Though on the other hand maybe it's no longer applicable with EMFH rules in effect. But that's F3 territory.

The hope is obviously for scum flip. It's not a strong agenda, but it's a reasonable one. Cf. Sunbae below, I would look at katze more in the townflip. Okay genuine question to the 29459239439 people who want to "resolve" / infolynch me.

So like, not due to self-interactions or how easy/hard things are. Just "based on ladd and monstr/dolby being wolves and how things have played out, i think these people are the wolves".

2 wolves in 10 names. Start taking people off the list.
Bennah and cuth are my first cuts (i.e. strongest townreads). With bennah, it's that his approach to me has felt the most genuine out of anyone ITT. For cuth, it's that of the ladd voters he's the one where like... I know Cuth as a player pretty well, I think? I don't know monte or rask so I don't really have a mental map of what they would or wouldn't do. But in that situation if Cuth's partnered with ladd I just really don't believe Cuth as a player puts that vote down. Not with the speed that it happened. He just doesn't strike me as that... ruthless is maybe the wrong word. Mercurial?
I think I'm also just gonna let jesus take the wheel and take sleep off the list. This is mostly just a thread flow / thread state thing, and an overall body of work thing.

I feel pretty comfortable saying both wolves in there. Like if they're not, I got fooled, straight up. GG to whoever.
Technically I really only *need* one more name to call it a real PoE - village should control 6 more kills - but I know you're looking for more in the way of actual committed wolfreads. Which, yeah, fair. At the same time like... idk I kind of reserve the right to not *always* have a strong wolfread? I know the game seems like it should be easy on paper, but the ladd wagon was just so *weird* and so fast that I think it's perfectly reasonable to not have a strong sense of a lock solve even with 2 reds, 2 greens, and 2 confirmed on d2. So yeah part of me just wants to kind of be stubborn and go, nah, I'm not gonna force this. But I do know that if the tables were turned and I were in your shoes, that's what I'd want to see.
So let's take a swing at forcing it -
Rask - I see Rask as kind of ... jumpy. Flitting around from topic to topic. Uneven engagement levels. Trying to track a single line of thought - like their read on me, is confusing. You go from like, naysaying Ender's wall on me, to saying they found zack/me villagery at SoD2, to saying that EoD1 they could have voted me, to going through and picking a bunch of kind of random stuff to shade me for. I think this actually feels kind of TWTBTWTBAW? Just like, the... unevenness of it, the messiness of it. I skimmed through this ISO kind of looking for reasons to call rask a wolf but I think gun to my head they're just a villager. It's also like... pretty hard to get away from the fact that they could have easily voted me EoD1 and swung it onto a villager instead of the wolf PR, so like... yeah. Think I gotta just take that one off the table.
HK - Biggest thing for me with HK is that he just doesn't really feel like he's got a team. He's playing like... a bit removed from the thread, but I believe he cares about the things he's posting about. I also think he hasn't really changed tonally from before EoD/dolby dying, to after it, which like. If he were a wolf I feel like some of that body blow would leak through into the posting, since his thread position wouldn't be awesome. At the end of the day I wouldn't be like, *surprised* if he were a wolf, since the overall top down level of like, is he engaged with the game the same way bennah's engaged with the game? No, not really. But yeah gun to my head, villager.
Katze - I think I'm just gonna say wolf. They way they were interacting with me, was gonna say early on but really all game, is just so *weird*. Like some of that can be explained by the miscommunication in them thinking I knew their meta or w/e, but not all of it. They've just felt so like... softly yet continually focused on me, to the extent where it feels like they know I have to die to town KP at some point for wolves to win. Just kind of a steady, "hey guys remember Newcomb, it seems like the thread hasn't talked about Newcomb in a while, let's talk about Newcomb like MAYBE he's a villager but MAN I don't KNOW". I admit some of this is wanting to be vindicated in my early read. But yeah if I had a bomb right now I think I'd go for the mildly hero shot and take it, knowing it wasn't like the most high percentage shot ever. But fuck it right? I could tack on - and it's definitely a tack-on - the fact that katze is posting a lot and generally around a fair bit and I can't off the top of my head know what he thinks about the game or who he wants to kill the same way I can track like, sleep or zack. Which, yeah, that could absolutely just be my own casualness this game seeping through, I freely admit I'm not paying attention to things to a degree where this would be a real red flag. But it's worth mentioning at least.
Monte - Yeah kind of think monte has a pretty decent chance of flipping red as well? Like, if he hadn't done two things - those things being the vote on ladd, and the aesthetically pleasing recent quote wall - you'd just kind of write him off as a monssr/dolby style "yeah probably just wolf fine PoE ez". The ladd vote was the 2nd one, the winston vote had been there for a while, so like, it kinda.... started the flashwagon, as opposed to finishing it or cementing it. And it did happen real, real fast. And there was the unvote. Which I don't think makes it likely a bus on its *own*, but I do think it puts what normally would be a pretty clearing vote in a normal game where the ladd wagon built and grew in a normal amount of time as opposed to like, literally 5 minutes or w/e. It wouldn't shock me at all if a hipfire/ gutty wolf threw down a distancing vote on a partner near EoD where wagons were that disorganized, and couldn't really hop off or saw the writing on the wall too late to do anything. Then there's the most recent flurry of posts. Which... I had a kind of negative reaction to, but have been trying to check myself on it since a lot of it was a visceral opposition to the whole wanting to resolve or infokill me without actually having a read on me. I think the most clear thing I can say about monte's recent posts is that they feel performative. Kind of... wanting to be seen, wanting to have a presence, being smooth about it. Yeah. Decent shot of being a wolf IMO.
Ender - I kind of want to just yolo Cuth's read and take ender off the table? But man if anyone fits the mold of a wolf who got deflated by the EoD1/wolf bomb shot... Their activity and presence is like night and day, D1 vs. now. And yeah I know he said he had a migraine, that's totally legit and not something I"m pushing on at all. Just... overall, holistic I mean I have the thought, it's there, I'm not gonna not mention it. They were *really* pushing for me at EoD1. Like the most vocal by far. And they've kind of walked that back toDay in a way that feels to me like they're kind of reading the tea leaves and not like, a genuine flip for reasons that are transparent and I can actually follow. Fuck you know despite all of that my gut says town. Idk what to tell you. I think I always need to kill this slot in my PoE but my heart says it's flipping v. It is what it is.
Cape - I'm still kind of processing that post he randomly quoted of mine from a hundred years ago. I would... definitely like to see the thought process behind that. Moving on to the bigger picture - I just don't think he really fits on a lot of teams. I guess he could be with HK or something? He's probably not with monte, I don't really think he's with dobby. I guess more meaningfully he doesn't really fit on a ladd/monsr/cape/x team like in general. I think it's gonna be hard to not PoE this slot but we really should clear it if we can, because if cape's v that's like always always a misyeet wolves need. I can't like, do that, not now, but I do want to try to get there if it's possible.
Dobby - I think dobby's kind of in his own world. It is a really fine line between "i'm talking about the things I want to talk about because I really believe in them and don't want to get dragged into stuff I don't care about" and "I'm a wolf and I need to keep the conversation and style of play in my comfort zone." Idk. I think he's got some decent associative. I think it's a good look that he's seemingly gotten more active after the redflips. I think the mech stuff and confusion about dolby dying and a lot of kind of wonky posts feel like a wolf would be a bit more careful in that kind of thing, in a self-awareness way. I think gun to my head villager. But this is definitely my most "man who the fuck knows" read.
So yeah.
There you go Sunbae. My yolo fuck it guess for the win is katz/monte. Doesn't really, like... feel right. But if you want me to take a swing, there it is. In terms of likely to actually flip wolf, I think something like -
Monte >> Katze >>>> HK = ender > cape > dobby >>> rask
Vote: Montmorency
That's about the most detailed I can be while doing this at work, but I'm around to chat for another ~hour or so probably.

But if that's the plan then chop me today as the "townie" that dies to give you the vest so that you have to blow someone else up.
Basically it's like this:
I know I'm POE and I know I'm likely not posting out of it. That's fine. Instead of continually saying "we really ought to look into HK" resolve me today. Then give you the vest tonight. Make a good decision.
We're currently very far ahead and the mafia have no extra KP after Ladd was chopped. We have time to make mistakes/clear POE via killing them.
It's like MtG, as long as at the end of the day we're +2 on the wolves it doesn't matter how many townies are actually alive, we're still winning this game. Town bodies dying are irrelevant to actually winning the game. We know who the PR are, they're the designated NKs yeah?
That leaves us in the POE to either resolve ourselves or get resolved. It's not "oh woe is me" it's an antiseptic way of reducing possibilities and guiding us towards a mathematical lock on winning the game.
I guess it doesn't matter if I'm the chop today if you promise to blow me up tomorrow
im honestly in the boat with this post, and I would actually be concerned if this were actually wolfNo, here's what I'm trying to say:

just saying
My condolences to readers of Page 54.
Very important consideration: Mafia will usually bus today because the game typically ends D6, and Sunbae, Zack, etc. have to be NKed.
Bottom line here: At least one of Neb/NC/cape HAS to be maf.
Zack, in your own words explain to me how essoa and hally went so deep in Mass Effect.
I volunteer to be vested. This will never backfire on the vesting faction (compared to alternatives).
(I get the sense people read my posts with worse comprehension despite their low quantity.)
