Players' Choice Invitational - Town Wins!

[Arctic]

lol
marl you’ve had like 0 influence on this game but the fact you believe this probably makes you town

[Marluxion]

sulit arctic are probably both mafia
vulgard mafia if arctic is town
not sure on the last

[Marluxion]

blizer actually

[Marluxion]

squirrel/arctic/blizer/sulit 4/4

[Arctic]

go off king

[Marluxion]

when squirrel dies i will be the reason why
just because i was ignored yesterday doesn’t mean it will remain that way forever

[Arctic]

this sounds like something gorta would say when he’s tunneling a villager on a gutread

[Marluxion]

“I’m hungry”

• Gorta when he’s hungry
  also everyone else when they are hungry

[Marluxion]

dont try to discredit me with this garbanzo beans

[Arctic]

lmao
it’s not that, it just reminded me of the gorta copypasta from risky light game

[Marluxion]

i’m unfamiliar with said post alfredo

[Arctic]

if squirrel flips wolf you had no more to do with it than literally anyone that scumread him day 1
you were on his wagon day 1 when it didnt flip, alongside 3 other people
you didnt convince anyone to vote him

around the same time, a number of other players gave reasons for thinking he was a wolf and since then many more have done the same

i dont know why im even trying to argue this point but i think you need a reality check friend

[Arctic]

if people try to go somewhere other than squirrel and you steer them back towards him, and he flips wolf, maybe it’ll mean something

[Marluxion]

can’t hear you over the sound of the delivery truck bringing me my scumhunting award for catching squirrel

[Arctic]

what happens if he flips town

[Marluxion]

i reevaluate the game
same as if anyone else i scumread flips town

[Marluxion]

this aint my first rodeo mr. habitat of the penguins

[Arctic]

there aren’t penguins in the arctic

[Marluxion]

there should be it’s probably cold

[sulit]

ash

from what I remember from playing with them a couple times on CD, ash is a pretty open villager - they have a pretty followable and open thought process throughout their posts
i don’t think i’ve ever played a game with them where they were mafia but @Squirrel2412 ? might have if they rememebr

@ash4fun

okay first actual read but this feels opportunistic as heck

/vote Squirrel2412 @Host-Account-5

@ash4fun

And granted, I was trying to provoke in the post he quoted, but the way he phrased it made it seem like he wasn’t really provoked, but voting me on it anyway.

pretty towny, “the way he phrased it made it seem like he wasn’t really provoked” shows thought process and analyzing squirrel’s post

@ash4fun

actually now that you mention it, I guess there is the question of “opportunistic to accomplish what?”, to which there’s not really a good answer.

But it still reminds me of early scum behavior so

followup
sticking with the push is prolly a good look

@ash4fun

I’ve been in the situation where I’m tired and being forced to justify my existance as town, and what wazza’s been posting seems consistent with that. I just feel like I can get into her headspace from her posts, and it seems like a towny mindset.

meh
feels kinda over explainy/performy in a bad way
i originally thought the thought process here was villagery but the wording unsettles me

@ash4fun

has been doing a lot of things that are wolfy but seems more memey than with an underlying motivation. Someone said they openwolf a lot so idk.

i feel like t!ash would have more to say here/more thought process behind this read ? m eh

@ash4fun

I’m mostly thinking of near the beginning, just goofing off in a way that would ping me as wolfy, but in context of you goofing off isnt.

@ash4fun

When I was skimming I saw some people talk about you openwolfing (somewhere around #800?) and I was like, “hmm, yeah, I saw some of that stuff”. Then I tried to phrase it in a way that sounded more interesting than “looks like openwolfing”

better look in terms of thought process
im not really sure a wolf would openly admit to trying to phrase something to seem more interesting lol

@ash4fun

Clearly two people thought they should start a wagon on crich, and I apparently missed the posts indicating their reasoning for doing so. This doesn’t change my opinion of crich; it serves as a reminder (to me) and indication (for you) that I need to find/read that interaction (and maybe the rest of crich while I’m at it).

ash kinda null / null town
i vaguely remember them posting more as town but i think they’ve been pretty busy
id really just like more content from them tbh

squirrel
I don’t really remember as much about squirrel’s game as ash’s and I’d probably have to check back on the games I played with them to get a refresher

@Squirrel2412

claiming vt in this setup is bad

ash deserves to be bonked with a newspaper to the head or voted for that

and I’m all out of newspaper

@Squirrel2412

please don’t claim numbers or vt unless you have to

I’ve been in this setup before and scum already have a lot of information about which numbers could be PRs

telling them you’re vt only helps them

Spending their first posts telling people to not claim seems pretty easy for a wolf to do and kinda meh
understandable but easy wolf towncred

@Squirrel2412

I’m back

@YoubutWorse @Gorta @CRichardFortressLies @Atlas @min

thoughts on arctic please

my gut says his posts are wolfy but I’d like your opinion

@Squirrel2412

I reread arctic’s iso

tbh I think the thing that pinged me the most is how he gave a thought on me-ash, then moved on to min, and then finally jumped back to me-ash after a while

kinda felt like he’s moving his vote around til he finds a v wagon that sticks

but then again
it really could just be town rereading thread and elaborating on a previous thought

I like this sequence about arctic tbh, it shows squirrel thinking about and developing a scumread, and i think the pinging people for opinions isn’t really something a wolf would do here
the thought process in the second post is goodze

@Squirrel2412

if min were mafia, he could just give the scum fakeclaims since it’s his cat

im not sure a wolf says this

@Squirrel2412

@ash4fun ping me when you’re done with your iso

@Squirrel2412

let’s talk

what are your thoughts on the top wagons rn?

I think squirrel specifically seeking out ash to talk is a good look - they have experience with eachother and its villagery that he’s trying to interact with ash

this readslist is such a mixed bag lol

@Squirrel2412

marl - he’s continuing to tunnel me despite the push having a very little traction in a way that reads confbias town to me.

not really much reasoning here as to why squirrel ended on a townread

@Squirrel2412

mostly vibes/gutreading, but also doesn’t seem like he’s pushing agenda

“doesnt seem like he’s pushing agenda”

@Squirrel2412

his push on me with ash felt w/w

w/w read is saved for later

@Squirrel2412

I have a bunch of different associatives with this slot in my head but I need those to flip before I can figure out min’s alignment

probably pretty villagery - i can picture squirrel like juggling around different interactions with the mins slot @Squirrel2412 btw with min’s flip do you remember any of these

@Squirrel2412

feels scummy in a way that might be playstyle

gave me kinda weird vibes - no other thoughts other than weird playstyle

@Squirrel2412

there was a post that felt like it was trying too hard to explain itself

originally pinged me as off but i dont really think a wolf puts this here - they try to think of another read/reasoning thats more than referencing a post they remembered

@Squirrel2412

but I was also expecting ash to post more and for his reads to improve, which never happened - if anything, the reads got more forced

continuing to focus on ash is a good look because they have experience with eachother

@Squirrel2412

I also disliked how both ash and arctic pushed on me simultaneously

again goes back to the ash and arctic w/w read

I kinda went into this iso expecting his posts to be really wolfy but

i actually find them pretty villagery?
could someone walk me through why they think squirrel’s the lynch today
