Hey Abbi are you a wolf

[PrincessAbigail]

@Caitlin

Since Luka being like this does feel a bit townie… sigh

But Idk who else to vote :/

@Caitlin

Also I called Arctic townie, not you Luka

So I don’t see what’s so sus abt my progression there

I say Arctic sus 1, you sus 2, next call Arctic town. One can only assume that I would next vote you lol

Like… you know this isn’t a wolf right?

Right?

Wolf Cait doesn’t need to pull off.

[PrincessAbigail]

@Luka

This is not townie thinking ftr. Its not particularly scummy thinking either its just- weird.

This… is literally… how Cait gets when she feels behind… constantly

Okay i honestly need to focus my attention elsewhere and just let you bury a town I guess

[PrincessAbigail]

@May

Hey Abbi are you a wolf

No

[PrincessAbigail]

I need to take a break in probably not reading this game with an open mind or clear head

I skimmed about 100 posts and retained none of the info

[PrincessAbigail]

So

Sorry

I do actually think Cait is town and I do actually think I have valid reasons for it

Town Core

May
Cait
Arctic
Garfooled
Psy

Yeah… maybe Luka since I think I’m being unfair there but I dunno clear my head come back

Sorry everyone

[guavagudetama]

@Arctic

i don’t see why them being townread affects this

If I’m right and they’re scum them being townread is bad because that’s people not wanting to vote them
I feel like I’m misunderstanding what you said

@WindwardAway

Well, I’m not making up reasons for it, either.

Oh do you not have reasons
VOTE: Garfooled
You coulda just said that

@WindwardAway

VOTE: guava

Back to here, I guess. Call it OMGUS, call it a hunch. I feel like guava knows better than to call my unexplained votes scummy.

This is actually omgus for once

@May

Zug is towny and Psy is towny and Gar is towny and lol is towny and guava is towny and Wind is towny and Arctic is town and Abbi is towny and Caitlin is towny and Luka is towny

Am I dumb or is this everyone in the game other than yourself

@PrincessAbigail

I’m like 90% sure I noted this well before that happened

Can you quote it
It doesn’t matter cuz I believe you I’m just curious if you’re right and I missed it or if you’re misremembering

@PrincessAbigail

@May

Hey Abbi are you a wolf

Thoughts on players v2:

1. Arctic - not touching on D1 due to “holy townie light” buff post (#713)
2. Garfooled - no notable interactions aside from Guava and people don’t talk about them much, but they seem like they’re solving in their little corner. Hope I can see more progression on their reads since they seem to be stuck on Cait/Guava without taking new posts into consideration
3. Luka - still no wolf pings and their tone consistently sounds towny. I admit I haven’t been paying close attention to their posts after that early townlean tho; +1 ISO homework
4. PrincessAbigail - I’ve never ISO-ed PrincessAbigail in our previous games due to their post count and I’m not planning on starting that anytime soon. Waiting for a towntell from their slot
5. WindwardAway - their D1 wasn’t so hot during our game in NUF, so if they continue as is here I hope they’ll post better in D2 & D3 like in that game too
6. Caitlin - need to see their fleshed out readlist to tell if there’s any credible progression. Outside of their tunnel-y back-and-forth with Arctic/Luka they seem to be interacting with others just fine
7. guavagudetama - they feel stuck on Garfooled
8. May - not touching on D1. I don’t think I can trust any read I make on them so early into the game
9. Zugzwang - their case on me had decent initiative. Would like to see more posts from them
10. lol - don’t remember much from them

Hey chat, may I make a request? Please do keep in mind that you work with perfect information on your own actions and decisions. You have so much meta on yourself. So, so much meta. Infinite meta. Keep in mind that, even when you attempt to adjust for your own perspective, you will often overestimate other people’s ability to read you, and that, though keeping in mind someone’s read on yourself can be a valuable data point because you know your own alignment, it should be something utilised carefully.

If every single person here who went “your wolfread on me is too bad for you to be town” were correct, Zone would probably be getting quite the talking-to by the mods for fucking up the rand so badly as to have half the game be mafia, even accounting for the wolves who are probably saying it at this point, given it’s been called out explicitly as a towntell. It also just… creates a bad thread environment a lot. All the time. There’s a reason it’s traditionally considered a wolftell to OMGUS.

@PrincessAbigail

Town Core

May - I dunno how to explain my feelings here… just like I expect May to play with a certain vibe like wordy, weird takes that I can’t comprehend. I suppose it’s fakable but i’m fine just ignoring that

Cait - I’ve explained this. Cait is a player who I’m prone to being blind to when I’m not cautious that could be happening here but my read isn’t faked it isn’t something I predetermined it isn’t something I’m doing cause we are dating and I feel like I’ve provided enough depth to it for that to be fucking obvious

Arctic - I just like how they’ve responded to everything and I like that they pushed the game forward early the way they did they are a beacon of light even if i hate their conclusions

Garfooled - basically the jokey responses to pressure felt calm and relaxed in a townie way but mostly I’m just pocketed by them being like “guess we’ll see” lol that’s such towny energy

Psy - I dunno how to word this read since it’s so heavily rooted in just the general vibe I feel… but I just feel like the genuineness of their solving and approach to the game is obvious they feel like they are actively trying to figure out alignemt and not pushing any agenda

Luka - frustration with me feels real I’m being unfair to him I think that his approach to Caitlin is townie even if I think it’s wrong. Like if I take a step back.

Reasons

[WindwardAway]

@guavagudetama

Oh do you not have reasons
VOTE: Garfooled
You coulda just said that

Pressure votes. Of course I’m not going to place a vote and loudly announce that I’m pressuring a slot…

[WindwardAway]

@guavagudetama

@WindwardAway

VOTE: guava

Back to here, I guess. Call it OMGUS, call it a hunch. I feel like guava knows better than to call my unexplained votes scummy.

This is actually omgus for once

Yes
But also I don’t currently townread you

[WindwardAway]

@Psyx

WindwardAway - their D1 wasn’t so hot during our game in NUF, so if they continue as is here I hope they’ll post better in D2 & D3 like in that game too

If you play with me more often, you’ll come to realize that my D1 is rarely anything particularly great.

[WindwardAway]

I think my D1 in that NUF game was actually one of my worse D1s as of late, but on the other hand it gave me a much better starting point for solving and I voted correctly on D1 and D3. One of the rare instances I actually do something correct as town, lol.
