Meh. XD As fun as it would be, I think I agree with you. I think this is part of the reason why I’ve been so frustrated this game. It feels like my playstyle doesn’t really mesh with a couple other people’s playstyle, so I can’t make the same kind of plays that I would ordinarily be able to.
Funnily enough, I did consider that this could have been the reason why Night was killed last night. I think scum might have expected certain others to have a certain reaction towards it, but no one’s talking about it because 1.) the town doesn’t really feel anything towards it aside from ‘wow, what a weird kill’, and 2.) the scum misjudged the town and is now afraid to talk about Night being the nightkill halfway into this day phase because it would draw attention to themselves.
Tinfoiling me thinks that if this is the case, most of the strong pushes this game have come from town, and scum has just rode on the coattails on these pushes, especially when they’ve been on town.
If you want my take on the NK, it’s partly that Night was more or less consensus town and partly that she might have softed her role or results somewhere that wolves caught onto, or they have a rolecop and realized she was the tracker and needed to die.
It’s also possible her reads were correct but in all honesty I haven’t gone back to look at them yet.
My guess is that scum has been a bit more focused on townies who have been townreading town correctly, than townies who have been scumreading scum correctly, because up until Wisdom’s mech check on Alana, we didn’t really have any thread cohesion on whom to vote or where to look. I think the lack of thread direction is exactly what wolves needed to keep afloat, which is why Marshal was so hard to kill on D1, and was even somewhat hard to kill after Alana flipped. Wolves may have had a part in that, but I still think a lot of that resistance to flipping Marshal came from town.
Anyway I’m signing off for the night and then I should conserve my posts for a bit and condense them till closer to EoD
Think I’m running a bit shorter than anticipated because I wasted posts being a dumbass in the thread, sorry for that. I know it wasn’t worth reading lol.
I don’t have a red on Blade, I was just waiting to see how long it would take for him to claim this. I believed a wolf might have stayed quiet and discuss it with teammates about it while town would be more prone to be paranoid and talk about it in thread.
Don’t really know what it means for blade. Took him a while but he did at least bring it up.
yeah that’s fair
I’m kind of also basing this read off like, wisp being…better here as mafia in how they approach the thread? Like if they were actually titled as mafia I think they would be more likely to hide it
