-it pings me that Hippo first says ‘I feel like the Squirrel wagon was set up to avoid the Arete vs Marshal thunderdome yet then shortly after attempts a cfd on Wisdom by creating a FOURTH wagon
-I feel like Bladescape knows better than to just tunnel a LHFish slot like Squirrel
-I think Squirrel’s long readslist legacy-post at EoD is unlikely to come from scum
-Wisdom’s posts about Marshal and Arete are almost TWTBAW
-Marluxion and Arctic’s feelings about the Arete lynch seem genuine
-I still don’t townread her but Millium’s posts definitely look better today
is this actually a soft
i ask this because he then gave this extra group of 3 which i know know contains at least 2 villagers and he could have just merged this into the first one? i see the difference in the groups was “people i townread but could be a wolf” vs “people i wolfread” but i feel his emphasis is on the first grouping rather than the second, and knowing the second contains 0-1 wolves is making me mrrrr about the first group of 5
is this signalling
something worth noting here
the way vulgard flames JC and seems genuinely irritated with him for feeling like he’s misrepping him is extremely different to the way he treats Marshal even though she is, from his point of view, doing more or less the same thing from her accusation of “combating min v reads”. it’s much less flamey/annoyed and instead more mild, so i think there’s partner equity here (a similar thing comes up with moonwink which i’ll talk about later)
other than the question of whether or not this is softing specifically to hippo
the last bit lends some credence to my suspicion that vulgard was focusing p hard on not getting nightkilled by mafia so i do think he’s less likely to be bussing whoever he pushes with intent to kill, since this would just get him killed faster
uh
is this a thing
i think this is probably a thing
cutting off this post here cuz it’s getting long
around 80 posts left
So, this is the main post I’m going to bring up for now, but there are others in the interaction I and JC had with Vulgard. The main point I’m going to make is that there’s no reason for me, as wolf, to scrutinize Vulgard’s solve in this way at this point in the game when I could just simply push my team to nightkill them that night if I thought they’d be a threat.
I also don’t go out of my way to push them to scrutinize me and make an actual read on me if I plan to nightkill them as scum.
Furthermore, there’s no reason for me as scum to side with JC in a JC vs Vulgard fight, especially when JC already had so much suss on him. I’d always fight JC with Vulgard in this case, because getting away with yeeting JC D1 would be so beneficial to me if I were scum. XD
the problem is there are probably 4 other wolves and vulgard became consensus town so arguing the entire wolfteam would keep a consensus town slot alive just because you asked them to read you is entirely unconvincing
less important but i’m also buying the theory that he dropped a bunch of correct wolfreads as a means of signalling which factored in to getting him killed
I’m finally here and ready to play some mafonya~
Yesterday was just pawsitively depressing!
I’m gonnya look into the last parts of Vulgard’s iso: Analysis Pending
If Vulgard knows who the wolves are, then why does he try to make a correct, super-solvy looking post that includes most of the people in the game? XD That’s not something a lost wolf in his position would do.
