Due to needing more bodies for their funeral parlor, Hu Tao’s motive makes them clearly the most logical choice to eliminate as of now.

If I remember correctly, the term you're looking for is OMGUS.
And I think joining a wagon quickly is often considered a bit suspicious due to it being a bit of an "anyone but me" sort of vote, but I mean—we're the only people who know our own alignment, so I think both the Villageandall the evil people would logically want to vote anyone but themselves, especially right now when we know so little. So, it technicallycanbe a tell, but it's not super strong (especially not this early).Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

To me, it mostly reads as someone having a bit of fun during random voting—sure, I’m the target, but I don’t see it as really anything incriminating.
Also, Not_Mafiaalsojust slid in as the second vote for ZZZX while making a joke, even though this time the first vote was actually serious.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

From there we can start to deduce pairs of people who seem to act together in some way. Then later in the game we can use this knowledge to infer whether someone is scum or town based on how they acted during those random wagon early on.
That’s a good point—I’ll have to remember to ask you if you notice any particular pairs later on.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

If you don’t have any, that’s fine—I just hadn’t heard a lot from you yet and was curious as to how everyone here operates. I’ll have to jot down that you’re a bit more thorough about your reads and such.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

Um, let’s see… previously, I was reading you as a bit scummy due to the reluctance to give out info, but you explaining your process means I’m back to neutral for you.
In contrast, Not_Mafia makes me feel as if they’re intentionally trying to obfuscate being read, which I intuit as scummy—obviously, could be the same case as you where you don’t have much info to give out, but it just feels different to me.
Uh, I don’t think I have many townreads currently. I definitely need to work on that.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

I feel like, even though Not_Mafia was doing a lot of weird things and literally asking to be eliminated, it was still scummy to actually eliminate that early on. Some extenuating circumstances, but most of us only had one or two reads.
Not because he is necessarily scum, but just because he did something scummy, VOTE: Random Nurse. I just ask thatso that we can prevent another quickhammer—we need 3 more votes to eliminate, and the scumteam almost certainly has 2 of those votes ready to use.no one else vote on thisHi, I'm Annie!

While I hate that we lost so much time D1 and I do find Random Nurse’s insistence on sweeping this under the rug suspicious, both him and ZZZX make valid points that we can’t just keep going in circles arguing about one of the few moves made so far. If we want to avoid ELo D3, we really need to get a correct elimination this time—does anyone else have anything we can work on figuring out?
I will mention, BlueSnakelet and ZZZX have voted together twice so far (an n=2, sure, but it did help put Not_Mafia to E-1). Could be that they were working to push a miselim and found Not_Mafia a convenient target to get people to vote for—a target who did most of the work for them. I can’t say it’s a bulletproof theory, but I would to hear their defenses to see what shakes loose.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

Yeah, this game doesn’t have too much talk—not necessarily a bad thing, but it does make it difficult to get a read on anyone due to how little most of us have said.
If I might ask—BlueSnakelet, what reads do you have? You’ve had several votes but not spoken too much about what motivated them.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

Can we all please put aside our egos and stop blowing up the game on Day 2? We just got done getting upset with Nurse about hastening an elimination and now y’all are doing the same thing. Trying to get anyone else eliminated extremely early just results in less time we could use to develop reads is just ridiculous.

Blue, you keep on swinging around with your votes, and this time you’re actively courting another quickhammer, all while trying to place the blame on someone else—asking someone else to vote for Nurse and then saying you’ll go after whoever does is either some sort of weird power projection or just blatant attempts to mislead and then miseliminate.Hi, I'm Annie!

Yes, and—in addition—I think scum have obvious motive to lie in answer to your questions, and also the total ability to do so. I don’t think that we can really know who would or wouldn’t quickhammer aside from Nurse, who did.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

Well, I suppose that—while it is a trap laid out in the open—it is still a useful trap if someone does actually fall into it. Like, um, zoning in a fighting game—defining the zones someone will be punished if they enter can really limit opposing tactics.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

Ah, hm—seems I misread you asking for information on how I play for intimidation instead. I think my natural issues with understanding people might be exacerbated in a format like this—so little information in a text format with the added hurdle of people trying to not give out more information than necessary.

I think a mass claim will go how BlueSnakelet mentioned it thought the quickhammer question would go—maybe not useful immediately, but the second someone deviates we have a target to go for. Honestly, I think it’s great zoning, so we should probably try it out.

In post 210, ZZZX wrote: Isnt a scum Neighborhood technically useless (outside of the backup neighbor) since they already have a chat?
Well, it could be negative utility (due to the possibility of being exposed by the Back-up Neighbor if they don’t play Villager theatre well enough) to balance out power roles or modifiers, like Unstoppable or Roleblocker.
Also, there’s a possibility that if they do play the theatre well, the surviving scum might be able to convince the Back-up to be on their side (to prevent a very swingy back-to-back scum elimination).
Essentially, it would be an additional skill-based modifier on the scum team—if they use their Neighborhood well, they can get by the Traffic Analyst and also possibly recruit the Back-up. If they don’t, they could get punished with the possibility of being exposed as quiet Neighbors.
…then again, this all relies on the unproven assumption that both Neighbors are scum, so who knows?Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

Personally, I feel like ZZZX and Blue might be the scumteam? They did vote together on Day 1, and Blue did wrongly state that ZZZX was guaranteed to be a Villager due to him claiming to be a vanilla Villager like I did (though it might just be an honest mistake of logic). ZZZX also said that he thinks Blue is town—I think this was right before the massclaim? Additionally, Blue said that Passenger should be eliminated next if Zhu flipped green, and Passenger early on chainsawed ZZZX for joining on my bandwagon early on during the voting stage.
Honestly, all of that is a bit circumstantial, but those two lean Wolves for me (in addition to Passenger, who is also very gung-ho on another quick elimination).
P.S. Personally, I was already rather townreading Zhu (my strongest townread, actually), so it's nice to have that read strengthened by Jackson's wave of analysis. Hopefully that helps pause the wave for another quick elimination.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

I think we may need them to respond to all the commotion we just made in order to see how our reads and theories pan out.

Spoiler:
Honest question here: is it possible that, due to the list being posted far later after the time he claimed to have come up with the reads and that he didn't have an explanation for any of them, it's possibly not an accurate reads list? I mean, even if he really did have those reads at that time, we don't even know what reasons he had for them.
You could even extend the logic to say that it's a fake list posted later to match what everyone else ending up read, but I'm not sure if that's too far out on a limb.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

As far as I can tell (you'll have to forgive me for my lack of clear insight, fibromyalgia has made my brain soup this morning), Jackson's case is rather convincing for one made primarily made on a single piece of evidence—it's a pretty good piece of evidence to be fair, and the rest of Passenger's posts have also made me scumread them somewhat, so I feel like Passenger isn't a poor choice of elimination for this day.In post 331, TheHoldSteady wrote: Wiz? Nurse? Snake? Can you read Jackson's case against Passenger and tell me what you think?

TheHoldSteady: Indecisive Doctor
Random Nurse: Lazy Traffic Analyst
JacksonVirgo: Neighbor

So, here's the issue: according to NAR, nightkills happen before investigative actions. So, if Random Nurse checks out Passenger and one of the Neighbors is nightkilled in the same night, I believe he'll still get a positive result due to Passenger getting access to the Neighbor PT automatically after the nightkill.
Actually, I should check that statement's validity—@mods, would a Village Backup Neighbor show a positive result to a Traffic Analyst if one of the Neighbors was nightkilled that same night?Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

I can see arguments for both interpretations (since the access istechnicallygranted right after the kill, but is practically granted after the entire night ends). However the mods decide this issue works affects the vote for me, since we might not be able to rely on Random Nurse getting useful info on Passenger.Hi, I'm Annie!

So far, I feel like I townread Jackson and Steady decently enough—you both seem to be actively attempting to figure this out, and that reads as very trustworthy for me. I don’t feel like I can say anyone is definitely town, but it would surprise me right now if either of you flipped red.
Nurse is reading as town, but like that one townsperson who lives all the way off in the woods—distant and hard to understand, but not too untrustworthy. I’ve been a bit flip-floppy about him the entire game, but over Day 2 I’ve begun to feel like I can trust him—just at at arm’s length away from me.
ZZZX, BlueSnakelet, and Passenger all read as scum to me, but it’s odd—a big part of the reason for those reads is just how little information I feel I have about them. What information I do have feels incomplete, but suspicious, and I wonder if the lack of information is deliberate. Realistically, they all can’t be scum, so I hope I’m able to get more information to form a better read on them.
Notably, Passenger’s claims make me very suspicious of him—I don’t feel like their arguments have come together as a solid defense, but I’m fine to not eliminate them today so that we can get more information through Nurse.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

To be quite honest, ZZZX hasn't posted anything too in-depth (mostly a lot of one-sentence reads), which is why I don't feel I have too much to add onto your questioning of them. Obviously, the lack of information they've provided makes me a bit suspicious, but I do feel as if they're the least scummy out of the three I mentioned? It feels like Blue is really trying to work with ZZZX (claiming they were confirmed Villager, for instance), but I don't seem to see that same behavior coming from ZZZX (even before Blue became a prime suspect), which makes me feel it could be Blue trying to pocket ZZZX? Could certainly be wrong, though. Overall, I just don't feel strongly about ZZZX like I do about Blue and Passenger.
Checking the Doctor claim seems fine to me since it can help confirm our town core, but I wonder if checking out ZZZX would allow us to get a better idea of who to eliminate on D3?Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

In post 352, TheHoldSteady wrote: I think considering tomorrow will be limlo if we're wrong here, the priority should be limming who is the most likely scum (which is probably Passenger, their response to the accusations were terrible). With RN not being clear (but I lean town) any report on limlo would still be something we'd have to work through.
For checks tonight I think ZZ would be a good choice because we can try to clear them if our suspicions are wrong.
I agree with pretty much all of this—I suppose I’ll just VOTE: Passenger now since I have a feeling they won’t be posting their reads for a good while, and I don’t want us to delay so long that we don’t eliminate anyone.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

You know, I’m at least glad we waited to get more information in the first place. It seemed like we were actually going to eliminate your spot right before you hopped in, Jackson, and then you helped turn it around and someone else is against the wall instead.Hi, I'm Annie!

Honestly, I was a little shocked at how fast we were moving to elimination then considering we had pretty much all said we weren’t fans of how early Day 1 ended—to be fair, a lot of the people we’re reading as scummy were very active then in pushing the early elimination, so that was likely the biggest reason for how quick it moved along.In post 371, TheHoldSteady wrote: Did it bother anyone else that when I led on Jackson's predecessor it went to E-1 almost straight away?

I would just hammer at this point, honestly. Seeing one or two additional flips will likely help generate more discussion, since we can be better sure which path is leading us where we need to go.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

That’s totally fair—if I had to guess, it might be the switch from being very anti-quickhammer earlier in the day to being far more willing to end the day earlier now. I honestly just don’t know how much more info we’ll get out of today aside from hearing from ZZZX, but that’ll happen soon enough.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

This post pings scum to me because it shows you've been thinking about reasons why people might suspect you, despite being in a slot that until now was widely town read.
These are things to note for later, but I don't think they eclipse the Passenger case for me.
To be honest, I’m just a rather anxious person—I tend to be too concerned and hyperaware of what people think of me in general, so I think that’s coming into play here. I totally respect being suspicious of me though, and I’ll happily answer any questions y’all might have for me.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-

Take your time, worst—I’m also operating under the assumption that one of the people in the Neighborhood is scum. To be frank, I’m more inclined to believe it’s your spot at the moment based on your predecessor’s actions, but I’d like to hear what you have to say as well.Hi, I'm Annie!

Well, while it’s nice to be confirmed by you, I fear we still have the main choice between the neighbors just as difficult to make. I personally feel like it’s the worst and ZZZX, but I can’t discount the possibility of Jackson being scum instead—but at least one of the neighbors is certainly scum.Hi, I'm Annie!

The false Neighbor wouldn’t trigger a positive result until a Neighbor has died, since it wouldn’t have access to any communication channels until then—could help confirm that claim, I suppose.Hi, I'm Annie! Please have patience with me—I am disabled.-
