2. Jan: his readslist has Baudib as top town when Baudib had made a handful of NAI posts - lean w

3. Baudib: I've agreed with everything Baudib has said so far - lean v

?????? yo tell me someone can think someone is lean v and also just made nai posts at the same time like this

it's like they're trying to suggest jan has tmi but skipping all the steps needed to actually get to a real read of someone having tmi, like that person providing over the top reasoning... not like that person v reading someone you also v read on page 0

"this person wolfy because they have similar read to me" with no further elaboration is just wild

you might as well wolfread yourself while you're at it

4. Gemma: I'm not voting Gemma D1 in her first game here, if she's a wolf she'll still be a wolf tomorrow and we might get spew - null

5. Dyachei: refusing to read Cape so early was fine, the reason meh, p#86 was overly defensive what with calling Cape's post "a case" and "a push" when he wasn't voting them yet, and their only other read is also Cape-related which shows a very narrow focus - lean w

6. Benneh: I didn't like the way he defended Dyachei, "we aren't linked at the hip etc" was levels of irrelevant to this game. I've liked everything else he has done though - null

7. Cape: this is familiar!Cape, and not having been snowed yet I want to trust that wolf!Cape will feel different - lean v

8. Cuthillius: leaning v bc of how he interacted with my first post and then lost interest, wolves tend to love making chitchat with me SoD to show how comfortable they are in the thread - lean v

9. Pzelda: opening that says he doesn't want to read but then immediately gets down to business, which I find inherently contradictory - lean w

the rest of these are nonreads imo like they don't feel like natural thoughts its tonally wolfy also this is what actually wolfy going through the motions or whatever it was you said cape was early day 1 looks like imo

also the pzelda read is something

Because wolves sometimes pretend to have one attitude that they think is towny while their actions betray a different one. Here hypothetically it would have been "I don't want to read = look at me not being very invested in this game" in opposition with "making game-related posts instead of rvs shitposting = actually I do care about what's happening". Ofc him not being here supports the former and means the following posts were just "trying to get into the game and failing".

this was pzelda's post:

Hello,
Not in mood for reading.

pzelda wolfy because they said they're not in the mood for reading but played the game anyway is the most ungenerous take i think you could possibly make from that


taffys been v reading baudib all game

During my first catchup I noticed Baudib voicing comments a few times that I also had, which might mean they were level 1 thoughts and easy to fake for a wolf but then again nobody else seemed to be making them. If you want I can search for them by tomorrow.

I don't find him as passive if I'm honest (or at least not moreso than the other players) and I also don't necessarily see how his reads are all rational, for example the "Visor outed wolf" bit that seemingly came out of nowhere (assuming he was serious about that bc I honestly didn't take it as such when I first read it). His thoughts also feel like they're meandering which I find towny if not unfakeable. See for example him first saying he won't townread me and then doing so anyway later.

Also I disagree with you that Baudib and Visor don't have partner equity, I could see Baudib fishing about people's positions towards his partner earlier and Visor now pushing him for future cred at a time when Baudib has almost zero chance of going over iyam. Which is not the same as me now having scumreads on either of them.

I can't find the quotes anymore but I also wanted to tell you and Benneh that the idea of Cape (or any wolf in a 10-player game with presumably only one partner) coming in thinking "let's piss off Dyachei on p1 that's a great tactic that surely won't blow up in my face" is inconceivable to me. Even if he's a wolf I won't believe pushing you was premeditated.
@dyachei

her baudib read is levels of wonky to me

its out of proportion to what baudib has actually done in a way that i think feels forced

for the amount of effort she's put into her baudib v read (not just in this post) it's wishy washy slash noncommittal, and immediately after trying to convince herself/others baudib is town she moves to considering baudib partners namely visor (also despite not w reading visor) - and shortly afterwards asks visor to sell her on w!baudib. separately these are things that are whatever but together with each other they feel incoherent and dissonant imo

i don't think it fits the bill of a villager with a real read that they're torn about

it looks even worse if baudib flips w (and i currently think he will)

the rest of her posts would just be quoting them saying wolfy tone
