I'm voting with two people I wolfread on a third. Either Gavial's getting bussed or I'm bad at reading them.

I'll check CoV and come back.

Also I veto the Arete wagon. I don't have a solid read on them yet, they could be town. When I wolfread them, I'll make sure they die d1 because otherwise I'm the n1 kill. Unless you think we're W/W, I guess.

@outed wolf I've seen her do it as town, for what's it's worth. Exactly in CoV. Except in CoV she was doing it to people on her wagon, while here she's doing it to people on another person's wagon. And I do townread nutella, so I think it's valid for Alison to have thoughts about the nutella wagon. From the perspective of nutella V, that is. Which is a perspective that she has, given her nutella townread.

I did say "decent on the surface" because I've wolfed with Alison and I know she's a competent wolf. The thing about analyzing a townread's wagon and pinpointing a wolf is something I could see w!Alison do. But on the surface level it matches the last time I saw her V play and for that I'm okay with it.

@ Marl read

Because it's the exact same thought as mine, and Marl was provably stuck in catchup mode? He couldn't have read my post yet, and the fact he was in catchup mode is provable by how he just posted. Which means he didn't fabricate a late mindmeld with me and he genuinely had the same thought as me at the same point.

c4, dya and KZA are in the "no impressions made" club and I would like them to play the game. I do not townread c4 for a carefully voiced scumread (?) on SPF. That's in any average wolf's wolfrange and I think SPF is too quick to clear them regardless of alignment.

dya and KZA just haven't talked about the game much yet. Dya got offended based on a single accusation if I read that correctly, and KZA 5-posted and dipped.

Any reads on your end other than the read on Tangrowth?

Currently reading SPF's CoV ISO. If anyone has other wolfgames she played on forum, link them to me, please. I'm trying to verify if I correctly spotted a tell between her village/wolfplay.

I might be demanding too much from Hally, but last time I played with them they 400 posted on day 1 (I know this is a light game). Another key thing is that I was paranoid about them the whole game. I recognized her contributions as towny in a vacuum, but still couldn't shake off the feeling they were W.

This game's completely different. It's less anything specific and more a few niche things. Like the fact Hally isn't building a voltron when I'm told town!Hally is the cooperative archetype. I can't follow their progression on Zack and SPF. It looks like they townread both because the duo scumread nutella for "valid reasons." Hally townreading nutella despite acknowledging those reasons could come from TMI. In a world where Hally's a wolf, their treatment of Zack and SPF is either pocketing or townreading mates. Alternatively, Nutella is the wolf and Hally's defending. It doesn't feel like the reads from these interactions formed naturally. SPF I could buy because there was at least some questioning going on, but Zack gets one for nothing. To say nothing of c4 who Hally slides in there and gives no thoughts about.

I'm checking their ISO and their townreads don't look warranted. Amy and nutella are fine, but Zack/c4/SPF got townreads for no clear reason. Hally questions what SPF's been doing and comes out of it with a townread because... why? Because the way SPF approached her read on nutella? The fact Hally isn't explaining it looks like they're trying to let SPF!town consensus slide in. "If SPF's called town enough times, we can get it." Either a w/w maneuver or a pocket. Either way it doesn't look justified.

In the game I played with Hally, where they were town, I could at least tell how they were reaching conclusions. They were questioning players and forming reads on them that way. There was some level of meandering in those reads, mind-changing, doubt. Here I see confident reads back to back to back and half of them seem to have come from flimsy bases (plural of basis?). I don't mind people giving lots of townreads on principle but the way Hally's doing it isn't believable to me.

Don't ask why I decided to go back to Hally instead of continuing to read SPF's ISO.

I think I called Hally a she instead of a they sometime before in my ISO, sorry if I did.

wehhhhhh

whatever it probably wasn't going to come up as a tell again and if you do it in a future game I can discount it as 'I literally told you it was a villager tell'

I think that the post where you said that you were vetoing the wagon on me until you can figure out my alignment, because you're not sure, is different from the approach you would take as a wolf, I think that if you were a wolf and wanted to hedge on me you wouldn't think to specifically veto the wagon (because you would either (a) have a conclusion in mind, and be obviously working towards that conclusion, or (b) not have a conclusion in mind, and want to keep your options open, in which case you wouldn't be trying to get people to not vote me)

I think I explained that badly

to answer your other question your read on Hally is, like, way more thoughtful than mine, I'm just like 'Hally claimed wolf? kind of wolfy?'

I might be giving nutella too many "frustrated, thinking it's V" points but I'm comfortable rn.

The nuance of SPF's takes isn't AI to me, I'm thinking more about something else that might be a tell. Has she played anywhere outside of Champs / CoV? I know she's played here but I don't remember her randing wolf here.

This tell will probably only work for this game if it's real, but.

I offer myself up as the D1 chop. This is a scummy, pre planned post.

I will not be doing my homework. I will be late for every class. I could very well be scum doing this, slank hard and ask to be chopped. Just bad play overall. You're all within your full rights to vote me. D1 reads can be unsure, but if all else fails, vote me.

"Wow scum would never do that, golly!"

You're wrong. I would. This is not a scum claim, since I'm town. But I might as well be.

And I won't be reading this game before like June anyway, so you won't get anything out of me.

Game full of champs players and try hards. That's cool, I respect that. Go for it. But I'm a rebel now. I don't want to do this anymore. THE UNIVERSITY IS A LIE. They all want us to turn out to be the exact same person: Masochistic mafia players in an never ending spiral of SUFFERING.

If I'm already suffering, they can't take anything away from me!

I'm a good default chop. Just remember that for later.

To be fair, my level of confidence in this read is higher than it probably should be for reasons I can't disclose. Arete might understand.

Dya's ISO reads like they were trying to get into the game and then stopped. A weird cutoff between RVS and actually playing the game, right before the latter.

I can't get into their headspace at the moment. Their posts seem underwhelming compared to most other people's. It could be a playstyle thing, though, so I'm reserving judgment.

One part that stands out to me is that the density of non-game-related stuff in their ISO. It's higher compared to the players I townread. And since this IS a light game, one would think you should be less wasteful with your posts. This by itself isn't as much of a problem; the real problem is that most other players haven't wasted as many posts. And I townread many of those players. In other words, dya's focus on fluff is out of place because few other players did that. It's out of touch with the thread.

Dya did say that telling them how to play mafia is a pet peeve of theirs. But I do want them to start playing the game before EoD, preferably. And before dya brings this up: I AM keeping in mind Champs finals where they were town and wrongly accused. The reasoning back then was similar (fewer posts/lower engagement than other players). But in this case, there's also an element of "out of touch with the thread" I described above.

I could say similar things about KZA, for that matter. Except KZA's ISO is even worse. Not only does it have fewer posts, but its only attempt at engagement is a thin townread on SPF. Also, bows out of reading Gavial instead of even trying. Terrible look so far. The point about "looking out of touch with the thread" also applies here. Dizzy just above me is open about the fact they won't engage with the game (not sure how to read that at the moment). KZA here is low-efforting and being quiet about it.

Stupid read, but KZA and Dizzy aren't W/W based on that. I doubt they would both do this as wolves, and in such a different manner, too. If they wanted to meme and become the slankwolf collective, they'd either both do it like Dizzy or both like KZA. I understand if people consider this read stupid, though.

I'm reading c4 and I kinda see why people are townreading this. The read on SPF looks like it's coming from a place of real solving. The pointed accusation that SPF is asking questions for the sake of asking questions. Implicitly wondering if dya's a wolf based on their comment about being told how to play FM. Those look real.

And speaking of c4 ISO.

As a certified Gavial reader, I give you this. Wolf Gavial is more self-conscious about his actions and it shows. He won't push nor tunnel as hard. His pushes will be weaker and he'll TRY to emulate his ultra-aggro towngame, but it'll be more obvious he's fake. I've correctly caught him as wolf on at least three separate occasions and I have never called him town when he was W.

I can link the games if you're curious whether what I've just said is true. I have proof.

This isn't me stroking my ego, by the way. I legitimately think I have a good read on Gavial. And right now, he's a wolf to me.

"Why aren't you voting Gavial?"

I have a bone to pick with Hally at the moment, outlined in my case above. And yes, I do realize Hally's voting Gavial. I'm trying to reconcile that in my brain.

Outed wolf, bronana (Zack?), headspace? I'd like to hear more from you two than complaints about my logic. Unless you're afraid of interacting with me.

Perhaps you have a gif to illustrate your fear? (Come to think of it, I'm not even sure if those work here.)

Some thoughts:

I think it's weird sunbae kind of put me in the category of not having fun because I was? I mean, I joined this game to chill with friends and that's what I was doing until my playstyle was attacked. ngl that put me in a bit of a mood but I was relaxed and joking around before that. so it's really weird to me it didn't come across that way. in the org game I really didn't want to be there at all (wolfing against zack and visor and amy and sunbae is intimidating af) but I'm excited to play this game

Alison's post wasn't super great - where she basically accused people of trying to get an easy mis-elim on nutella. Not necessarily because it's within the first 3 hours, but because it feels like TMI on nut. But lets say I'm wrong there...she still left the thread shortly after with no other insight. The alison i know usually has other thoughts on the game.

I think tangy felt pure to me (and yes, hi, tangy. I don't think we've played together before). Not willing to lock her in or anything because ffs it's early d1 but probably against voting there today.

I kind of like amy's approach to the game so far, too. Just feels like she's actually trying to discern alignments.

I saw her play in some of Jay's games I spectated but beyond that I'm at a loss for what she's said so far, it was... thorough. But I don't think I'd call spf a town read or anything.
The best way I can describe it is

As town, she thinks
As wolf, she writes

In her wolf posts, there's some sense of architecture to the ideas, and she writes for show a lot. As town she plays by discovery, and her posts make it obvious she's thinking out loud. She's one of the easiest reads out there if you know what you're doing.

Welcome to Alison
This is a thing that'll happen, don't mind it for now.

Caught up, strongest reads off of memory are sunbae and Vulgard always town
