Lynch the Wolves (Game Over)

[Aronis]

Pagetop!

[Yuurei]

i have periodically read the thread and don't feel like i've much to say. i'm getting lazy to play the game i guess?

Vecna, i did a quick research and read the games that almost50 linked about Creature and i suppose we can trust other players judgment on him.

i don't know who's right about ArchAngel (Northsidegal or Creature) so i'm not so interested in lynching her today.

my opinion about lynching Theta still hasn't changed as well, and i'll mull over if TGP bravado to push radiant is genuine or he's doing it in purpose to sound townie

there's so many different players reading different players as different alignments for different reasons (that very very often aren't explained) that it feels a bit chaotic here, i guess it's to be expected from a 18-p game perhaps?

i don't feel like arguing to push my reads over anyone else reads so i'll stay in my corner for a while, if you want to engage with me though it's no problem

edit: can Aronis please for all that's holy stop cluttering the thread? it's too much spam and now we're in page 25 or something and he still isn't engaged in discussing anything. are you guys sure that he's town? for me it sounds like he wants to avoid saying anything game relevant in purpose.

Yeah. He did the same thing in Mod is Mafia.
I completely and blatantly used it as scum.

It’s annoying as fuck but I think I can read scum!Aronis v town!Aronis.

I wish he’d be useful but he has a pagetop addiction worse than my posting addiction.

Going to work now later y’all.

[Yuurei]

i guess my lynchpool is: {hewhoswims, theta, archwing, hebichan}

i feel better about Luna and later will explain why

oh, and it's important to say that although i didn't check Archwing yet, while collecting meta material in hewhoswims i saw he stating that he was busy with tests until June or something, then i'm willing to give him time to finish it and focus in the game more. i'll later check theta and archwing to see if they are genuinely busy or not as well but in theta case i don't like how she already came twice to the thread and didn't even comment about the game state, i would rather have some fence sitting as there is in hewhoswims posts than to have nothing as in Theta's posts.

edit: ok Math, if you say so i'll not read his spam as scum motivated, but i'm not town reading that

[Yuurei]

thinking well about it i'm more here: {theta, archwing}

hebichan at least seems to be engaged in the game and hewhoswims seems like will get engaged after the tests. i'll get a better read on them later. for now i want more to get rid of a slot that it's doing nothing, specially Theta that i've a scum read on

[Luna Nova]

I won't have time for this until tomorrow.

Ursula

[HeWhoSwims]

I'm around for a good while today, and less tomorrow until the evening. Right now ask me what you want ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Blade, I wasn't trying to get you to push Luna; I was giving my own read on the situation. You were already pushing Luna and I was criticising that as a way of forming/stating my thoughts on the gamestate.

@Yuurei — Pagetops are an Aronis staple. I would be worried if Aronis

wasn’t

spamming page tops.

@Swims *confused* So are you forming them or do you have them?

@Ursula — *frowns* I hope your other heads can at least catch up

I really gotta go.

[HeWhoSwims]

also cheeky isn't necessarily scum but she hasn't been towny so far.

You're the only person that I expect should know better than this tbh.

I'm pretty sure that the entire scumteam isn't lurking so at least one person is scum in the active players but none of the active players are obviously scum aorn and I'm scared to push on someone for reactions because it'll probably end in me having to deal with a whole lot shit that I don't deserve (see: last few pages) so my hands are kind of tied here.

Until someone does something that I think is worth immediately jumping on it's -equity for me to go around pushing people and risking my own lynch.
If I had to dayvig someone it'd be Archwing, in the active players it'd be like Yuurei but I'm not especially confident in any reads besides my townreads.
hence why I'm stalling until I have confident reads and voting people who have shit reads so that they fuck off.

VOTE: RadiantCowbells

Why this? Why beautiful? Why only comment on this? so many questions I'm afraid I won't get a really good answer to. Both of these posts state thoughts on the game... we have less active people such as me, yourself, Teta. We have people already pushing others, such as Luna and Mathblade sorta mutually, hebichan pushing me earlier, someone was pushing Arc. I'd like your opinion on the rest of the game if you claim to have read up most of the thread so far.

I think beautiful's posts here make sense, I'm not townreading Cheeky at this point (even if I were what's wrong with him saying this) and I think the fact that scumteam isn't lurking feels like a fair assessment.

pedit: Both, Blade? The read I have is that both you and hydra are slowly drifting towards the scumlean part of my readslist for reasons I stated and posts I quoted. But by discussing that read and those posts and reasons, I form them further...

[Creature]

The scumteam is AA9, TGP, NSG and Creature.

Go home you're drunk

How do you feel about NSG declaring you the AA9 expert?
Or TGP snapping at me for wanting to lynch AA9? While stating he hasnt read the preceding pages?

So we're the scumteam because we're all defending AA9?

[RadiantCowbells]

VOTE: TGP

[Theta Alpine]

if i am in the dead thread night 1 it would either be a lynch dayvig or vengeful kill

and yes my lurking is different this game
since i have actually been busy irl
and also d1 is usually pretty annoying for me

[hebichan]

I mean, yes. Those are the things that would put you in dead thread night one.

Can I ask where the AA9 push came from? It seems rather unnatural here.

[Creature]

Oh no, hebichan is also defending AA9, hebichan must be scum too

[hebichan]

TBH I found some of angels posts really bad early on, but at first it seemed like most people were fine with them.

Then all of a sudden, pages after her worst posts there's a sudden interest in lynching it.

"I think we're thinking too much."

"Yeah this whole thinking thing is a bit of a distraction."

"Honestly, probably."

"Yeah we won't get the guilty by thinking things through. We'll get the guilty by doing what comes naturally."

"What comes naturally?"

"Calling people suspicious!"

"Speaking of which, can we agree that thinking is something the wolves want us to do, then?"

"Yes, which means...WOLF!"

"No, I'm a monkey, not a wolf."

"What, that makes no sense."

"You're trying to think! WOLF!"

"I'm beginning to lose my faith in humanity."

"Does that mean you're going to side with THE WOLVES?!?"

"No, but it means I'm rapidly becoming receptive to the mindset of lynching anyone who annoys me."

"Why is that always the idea we keep coming back to?"

"Let's face it, we're probably going to end up doing that anyway."

"I at least like to hold some semblance of faith we can do better."

"And my faith is about broken."

"Geez, all we're trying to do is weed out the wolves within us. Why is that so divisive?"

"I can't fathom a reason why."

"Nope, total mystery why trying to kill one another is bad for the community."

"You know what would restore our community? Getting rid of these wolves!"

"Yeah!"

"So let's get to lynching them already!"

And the cycle begins anew. New refreshments are brought in.

"Mmm, these taste delicious."

"Do wolves have good taste buds?"

"...I don't know, actually. Maybe?"

"Maybe sounds good enough. I FOUND A WOLF!"

"Oh? Try this food, see what you think."

"...Hmm, this really does taste delicious."

"See? WOLF!"

"Okay, guess I was wrong then. Still, I think this is indicative of being human if it is indicative of being human."

"That logic sounds flawless to me."

"WOLF!"

"What? No, you heard wrong you wolf. I said that logic seems flawless to me."

"Oh. Apologies."

"Something smells funny here all of a sudden."

"WOLF!"

"No, seriously. Try smelling the air right now."

"...What is that godawful stench?"

"WOLF!"

"No, I think someone farted."

"..."

Awkward silence.

"This is a sign from the stars above that the wolves are in the people acting irrationally!"

"Go home. You're drunk."

"Well, I am, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong."

"I think I want to vomit."

"Huh? But you're not the one who had too many drinks."

"You people are just that sickening."

"Or maybe you have a people allergy?"

"...You know what, sure, let's run with that."

"I think we've slacked off on hunting the wolves."

"Well, maybe, but got a solution?"

"Get less chaotic?"

"In this town?"

"...Fair point."

why aren't we lynching hebichan

[Vecna]

Because im quite sure Hebichan is town. Thats my reason for not wanting to lynch her.

Creature, if you are town, then why are you not concerned about NSG blindly sheeping you on AA9? Why arent you concerned about TGP attacking me over having a scumread on AA9?

Why do you seem so agitated over me scumreading you? If its for rediculous reasons, just brush them off, right?

[Vecna]

Also since people really dont seem to understand my proces here - I dont have an actual read on AA9, im still just in the process of shaking the tree.

Im feeling very confident theres some scum posturing around the interactions of that slot though.

[Vecna]

After some reflection my top scumreads right now are TGP and Creature.

Creature I think is upset because him and some of his buddies have been correctly called scum, but for the completely wrong reasoning. When he's engaging with me, he just appears interested in fighting my reasoning (because it is probably wrong). I do not get a sense that he's trying to read into me, just that he's trying to discredit what im saying. This type of tell is something that I find quite often to be very scum indicative, being annoyed to be caught for the wrong reasons, and it showing in the arguments.

TGP just does scummy stuff. Claiming to not read pages 21-24, but pretending to be very upset at me for wanting to lynch someone without stating reasons on p25. The thing Math found earlier about trying to sow confusion with the hydra thing could also fit into that picture I guess. The tone also feels off to me here. This game has been a treasure trove of information and reads so far, with very little actual reason for irritation as far as im concerned. Plenty of reads to be had for the people that are inclined to look for it. Yet most of the things the slot has done so far is complain about shitposting, refusing to read. Not completely AI, but something scum tends to do plenty often as well for a lack of having more usefull things to post. 3 strikes for suspicion is plenty reason for a lynch here in my book.

[RadiantCowbells]

why the fuck aren't we lynching hebichan

[Keychain]

Vecna, I find the first one kind of tenuous and think it relies too much on an unjustified assumption that multiple members of the scumteam are under pressure. Can you back it up with quotes to show what you mean?

Keychain, how did you conclude that Cheeky is indeed engaged and scumhunting, and more importantly - it being genuine- as opposed to just being aware of her own meta and trying to fake it?

If everyone had to be 100% beyond their faking ability as scum before I can townread them, I'd never get anywhere. So I can't be certain that it's genuine, no.

But looking through her ISO, nearly every single one of her posts is digging into something, making stances, pursuing leads.
I have a terrible memory anyway, so meta reads from me are few and far between unless they're connected to me (eg. North's confidence in reading me)

[hebichan]

Why the sudden tone shift RC?

I asked an honest question, and instead of answering, you decide you want to lynch me.

I'm not against an AA9 wagon based on content, I'm asking where it came from.

[RadiantCowbells]

I never said I wanted to lynch you

[hebichan]

I'm not really sure how I'm supposed to respond to that. I feel like I'm on a roller coaster.
