Hi there. This is a town post btw.

[Zookeeper]

VOTE: Malakittens
Maybe not town.

[Zookeeper]

Hello to you too and hf!
Consider joining my wagon?

[Zookeeper]

Hello to you too and hf!
Consider joining my wagon?

I can join it if you sign up for the gambling club

I feel like you're getting a lot more out of this deal than me. But sure I'll join your club.

[Zookeeper]

um, excuse me, as a wholesome and innocent townie I find anyone wanting to fill our charming town with sinful gambling to be highly suspect
VOTE: Shirou

It's not gambling.

[Zookeeper]

The gambling game feels like something Shirou mentally prepared before receiving their role pm and probably would have posted either way.

[Zookeeper]

SirCakez: Did you vote for Laplacian because of your fellow mason? Is that some kind of serious alliance we have to take into consideration now?

[Zookeeper]

The gambling game feels like something Shirou mentally prepared before receiving their role pm and probably would have posted either way.

thats pretty obvious is anyone sayings its alignment indicative

Well they received scumreads for it. (23, 99).

[Zookeeper]

Eh you can hop off my wagon, Shirou. I suppose the contract is canceled

[Zookeeper]

The whole gambling thing seems like something scum would probably hesitate to engage in, I also don't actively dislike much of what I see of the more active talkers here.

Of the less active posters, this here feels most like instant noodles for a good town post, so I go with this:

VOTE: Laplacian

14 is scumposting.

Confirmed, Masons with Kitty & Cakey.

VOTE: House

[Zookeeper]

VOTE: Gypyx

Now that everybody has checked in at least once, this slot has had the worst entrance of every slot so far.

I don't really understand why you think their posts are scummy.

[Zookeeper]

It is exactly the type of post that I would expect many players to make as mafia if they aren't entirely comfortable playing as such.

Plus, the post by Noctyrnia he is referencing is an entirely fair reaction to the way the game is playing out currently. Much of the game up to this point is fairly meaningless due to it.

That sounds fair enough to me.

VOTE: Gypyx

[Zookeeper]

+town on Laplacian for the lack of awareness. There is a realistic chance he would know that the mason trio is a joke if he was in the scum thread (because one or more of them could be in there too or because it has been talked about for other reasons).

[Zookeeper]

@Laplacian: Read Post #4447 and the following in the signup thread, should clear it up for you.

[Zookeeper]

I'm not sure i agree cus scum often take claims at an face value.

Checks out, I just think odds are that the fun fake masons have been referenced in the scum thread for other reasons before. If not, then your logic makes more sense here. I already townread Laplacian for taking the gambling suggestion at game start head on though.

[Zookeeper]

My read on you is that you've shown willingness to cooperate and be a good townie and I would rather not disturb right now.

[Zookeeper]

But if I had to flip one of the early game spammers it might be you. I'm not sure I buy that soft tilt/frustration you showed on the cancellation of the gambling game.

[Zookeeper]

General vibes:
-> don't care about Gypx wagon.
=> My gut intuition tells me whatever Cakez is doing is wrong.
-> Andante wagon could be spicy
-> Blake not acknowledging my existence is deeply troubling. How can i pocket her if she won't care if i exist.
->Shirou is the biggest danger to me in being pocketed but im probably gonna let that happen and not care what his alignment is at some point so im mentally preparing myself for that now
->Norwee gives of town vibes from interactions with me. I don't think we will work well together this game though. Need to form alliances away from Norway
-> Noctlyne triggered me and I won't be able to figure out alignment until i probably figure out who it is, won't even attempt that now.

Did i forget anything of importance on these past 10 pages.

Do you actually have a scumread on Andante or do you just want to see what happens there? I see nothing in her iso that catches my eye negatively. I kind of like that she didn't bother too much to make logical sense out of her scumread on Shirou while at the same time agreeing with me his gambling stuff was not really alignment indicative. Leaning slightly towards town here.

[Zookeeper]

I have enough curiousity on it to want to see a spicy wagon. I lean scum but i wouldn't call it anything better than vibe read.

Understandable. I don't really have seen anything here that made me dislike the Gypyx wagon. I don't like how they only reacted defensively since that happened and said nothing else.

[Zookeeper]

lmao oh crap.

If scum don’t want to be in plan wouldn’t going along with mentality of screw you and ur club be way to go

Not really, because they might be asked what their problem with the club is and they'd rather not have to spin up some lies about it? The easiest thing is just not say anything about it and see the whole thing fizzle out on it's own.

+town on Laplacian for the lack of awareness. There is a realistic chance he would know that the mason trio is a joke if he was in the scum thread (because one or more of them could be in there too or because it has been talked about for other reasons).

is that read a stretch or is it like reasonable in your eyes?

That part of the read is a bit of a stretch and in fact Norwee made a good counterpoint, but it's still better than rolling a dice.

Tbf Zookeper just has that weirdness aura all around him that makes me really confused about him

I assume that aura will go away once I'm tilted enough.

I do not understand the Zookeeper scumreads.

I similarly do not understand the Laplacian townreads.

Shirou's little gambling club suggestion at game start seems to be pretty scary for scum as they wouldn't want to get caught up in a betting minigame that generates more data on their stances.

The fact that Laplacian jumped right in with a "screw you and your club" opinion in 14 instead of being more wary to take a stance their makes me think he's town. If that doesn't convince you I give up on trying to explain that I think.

Norwee is town for similar reasons.

@Shirou don't you like our wagon here?

I don't believe in that being alignment indicative without knowing his personality. He strikes me as the type of player to be blunt about his thoughts, which does not translate into such tells bring likely to be accurate.

Well they're the only player here I've played with before so I somewhat have an idea what to expect. Not much to go by but eh.

[Zookeeper]

I'm just trying to find motivation to get into this game, RVS was spent talking about gambling nonsense, with the exception of Zookeeper, all yall are boring right now lol

I feel like I'm being groomed.

[Zookeeper]

(I just realise that might be a improper word choice, apologies)

[Zookeeper]

I still have a good feeling about this boy I think

[Zookeeper]

rolling a dice

Singular form of dice is die.

FYI.

Thanks.

@Shirou you just have been upgraded to probably town.

[Zookeeper]

legit don't care that much zoo

now that I'm getting in a tunnel the only thing that makes me happy is seeing the slot dead

vote andante I hope I don't need to case her because it's unironically open wolfing to me

please and thank you

It pains me because she said nice things about me but here you go:

VOTE: Andante

[Zookeeper]

[Zookeeper]

VOTE: House

Very sorry for wrong account, will pay attention now...

[Zookeeper]

I am pretty sure house is town. Not saying house wouldn't buss yesterday, but i think he would made more of a show of it to make it seem like he had a good reason for voting andante and good scumread. He didn't do that

He was so opposed to this wagon when it started, I think him trying to have a reasonable explanation for a U-turn on his opinion might have raised more eyebrows than just pretending to have done it for the lulz.

[Zookeeper]

House just hammered a wagon on scum day 1 without a care.

That itself isn't alignment indicative for him I don't think. My issue his very active engagement with the wagon the entire time. Like he knew there was something spicy going on, because he knew of Andante's alignment.

[Zookeeper]

@Blake and Zookeper
do u townread Cakez and if so why

Nah, no townread from me. He's kinda my second suspect for someone who might be scum on that wagon.

[Zookeeper]

Why is Cakez sus to either of you two?

He's hard to read but his scumhunting felt kind of fake to me, like when he kept up the scumread on me after some stuff has happened and just casually "called me out" for bussing when he voted Andante, that seemed like a pretty rigid opinion based on not much to me. But the main reason he's my second suspect on that wagon is because I still townread Laplacian.

[Zookeeper]

I have a guilty.

U gonn spill the beans or be dramatic?

If I reveal now, it pretty much ends the day even if we don't eliminate right away, so the decision is whether we want to just forgo the content that would otherwise transpire.

I don't mind playing for a bit.

[Zookeeper]

But I guess this is off the table then.
UNVOTE: House

[Zookeeper]

But what about the fun of having some people sweat in fear for some days?

[Zookeeper]

No fire go away we got scum day 1 this isn't going down the drain like pokemon

Honestly a bit surprised that your first post today is not a vote on me after you said I was bussing yesterday (394). Did you change your mind on that over night or what?

[Zookeeper]

I guess we can wait for more people to post, but i don’t think there’s much point in "playing" a day where

we’d all just be waiting for House’s claimed guilty anyway

..

We can't really do that because we still have to take into consideration that House comes out with "lol i lied I have nothing". I think we should cut the game day in half and play normally and then have him state his result.

[Zookeeper]

And even if he simply has a guilty there is still more scum to find.

[Zookeeper]

Cakez wagon is fine I'm just not voting because I dont want this day to end in a "lul we accidentally eliminated and cop got nked" disaster.

+1 cakez FWIW.

[Zookeeper]

Malakittens what do you think are the odds that House investigated you?

[Zookeeper]

Very slim just saying.

[Zookeeper]

House using a night action on me is like pouring top shelve whiskey down the drain

House won’t need a night action to tell my alignment

Him and I played too many games + f2f games

Yeah but shouldn't the odds be 0% considering he found a guilty?

I think we can wrap it up here, game is over!

[Zookeeper]

oh i guess we aren't doing the intent thing huh.

[Zookeeper]

ah well that's for noobs anyway

[Zookeeper]

Fire’s cake push makes sense now.

house being scum trying to trade his slot for fire also makes a bit of sense i think.

[Zookeeper]

Is Firebringer somebody that House would trade himself for, though?

I don't think so.

I dont know the players so can't assess. Hope you're right though.

[Zookeeper]

I lied.

I don't have a guilty. I'm VT.

...

anyone's opposite to killing house tommorow whatever happens?

Don't worry. I'm still right.

[Zookeeper]

Can't wait to see if u manage to get out of a yeet tomorrow. Will be funny to watch, will be rooting for u house.

If you flip town tomorrow will be over in 30 minutes.

[Zookeeper]

Nah don't worry about that

[Zookeeper]

[Zookeeper]

What is this nightkill lol.

[Zookeeper]

A guilty?? I love it

House was lying? Ew

I was skimming and nearly voted Fire wtf

This seemed like forced activity after the guilty to me, doesn't seem like genuine reactions and maybe a bit of scum defeatist attitude, I think I am still good with this.

VOTE: SirCakez

[Zookeeper]

cakez just gave up

[Zookeeper]

VOTE: Norwe

This game is too easy.

Spoiler:

[Zookeeper]

I believe you Norwee. Unless house fakes another guilty then maybe not (faking a guilty on you wouldn't be good though I think).

[Zookeeper]

Okay norwee might actually be scum.

[Zookeeper]

[Zookeeper]

VOTE: NorwegianboyEE

Someone talk to me when they have reasons to believe Norwee would act like that as town. This looks like almost a scumclaim to me.

[Zookeeper]

Something you'd have considered if you were actually town.

I think they also would have if they are scum, just seems like they are simply throwing in the towel here.

[Zookeeper]

Something you'd have considered if you were actually town.

How does that make sense? I throw in the towel for no reason by trying to eliminate House? Please spare me from such nonsense.

You're throwing in the towel by going in a 1v1 with house for no reason. We are in a pretty good spot and even if house is scum that's a matter that does not need to be rushed. You want to force it and throw your "town" life away and probably take a town house with you. But have your fun, troll us a bit I guess.

I am still willing to be convinced otherwise if players who know you tell me that you would do such crazy things as town but it just looks bizarre right now.

[Zookeeper]

I would not feel comfortable to keep playing a game in a "good spot" when that has bittem me in the ass before.
You may not like being told this as an naive newcomer. But sometimes you will realize that nothing can be trusted.

Ok.

[Zookeeper]

And what turned him from being the most charming person in the thread into the grinch?

[Zookeeper]

I'll think about this again later I guess once things have cooled down a little. UNVOTE:

If it ain't Norwee, Cakez is still fine.

[Zookeeper]

Noct

:
I looked at the interactions between noct/fb, and I think fb has been trying to be very misleading, I would have never found out he bussed either. The only thing that strikes me as potentially implicating is how firebringer said in post 252 he would put the slot on the backburner until he figured out whose alt it is. This seems like a very convenient coincidence for not having to talk about your scum buddy anymore.

But posts 352 and 409 doesn't look like posts scum would make. They are somewhat trying to advertise for another wagon and that looks really bad on her now. I think scum would do that if they think it works, but noct's tone in these posts suggests that she didn't even believe that herself. I don't think I would make these posts in her shoes as scum.

House

:
Even if you want to policy(?) yeet him eventually he is actively playing and creating more AI content for himself and other players. That's seems like just a bad idea. I also think he's much more likely to be town than scum here. I mean, imagine he's scum. Any PR investigate him and it's just immediately gg for scum.

Would be nice if all slots could check in.

+1, this needs to happen.

[Zookeeper]

A guilty?? I love it

House was lying? Ew

This seemed like forced activity after the guilty to me, doesn't seem like genuine reactions and maybe a bit of scum defeatist attitude, I think I am still good with this.

VOTE: SirCakez

It was forced activity because I felt like y'all were owed posting but I have a lot going on IRL right now

Okay I am willing to give you a +town point for being unexpectedly transparent here. But that's just a gut reaction and I might totally get back to wanting to chop your head off .

[Zookeeper]

A few thoughts:

Not liking

Gypyx

for a vote really. I think it takes a player with a special kind of guts to simply confront house today if you are scum. Firebringer seemed like the player who might have done it, but I don't think the average player would. I also generally liked the tone of Gypyx posts. He was pretty reserved and cautious on day 1 and lightened up on day 2 and that seemed pretty much like a townie attitude to me. And his reason to vote House might suck, but it's pretty consistent with what he started the day before.

Have been looking into interactions with

Laplacian

a bit. In Post 89 firebringer is criticising my townread on Lap. Do you (general audience) think he would do that if Laplacian was his scumbuddy? Seems a bit unnecessary to enable the momentum against your partner there.

The

flippynips

slot is a bit annoying, because anyone could replace in there now and literally play the rest of the game as if they were a townie.

@Noctyrnia

: Do you think firebringer somehow figured out who you really are/what your main account is?

[Zookeeper]

And his reason to vote House might suck, but it's pretty consistent with what he

started

stated

the day before.

[Zookeeper]

@Noctyrnia

: Do you think firebringer somehow figured out who you really are/what your main account is?

Is there a reason you ignored this question?

[Zookeeper]

@Gypyx

: Do you think House is scum or town? And why?

[Zookeeper]

If Laplacian keeps dropping "look at how newbie I am" tells he should probably be elimmed.

[Zookeeper]

in all honestly not sure and i don't really care

That is a bit disappointing

[Zookeeper]

If a breadcrumb was supposed to be discussed in public it probably would not be a breadcrumb but a claim.

[Zookeeper]

If a breadcrumb was supposed to be discussed in public it probably would not be a breadcrumb but a claim.

If scum suspected a bread crumb, they probably wouldn't make a ham-fisted post asking about it in public.

I agree with is but I have a slight suspicion this could have been the intention of that post.

[Zookeeper]

Anyhow just wanted to get this out there. Not sure if I believe Laplacian to make such inconsiderate posts.

[Zookeeper]

I'll give you the Andante vote, but I think on day 2 it would have taken more balls to defend firebringer than to just vote him as scum.

[Zookeeper]

I’m weak doctoring house tonight have fun mafia

I'm wondering why you not only ignored my question but also the question why you ignored the original question.

[Zookeeper]

GG, wp all. Thanks for playing, thanks for modding! I really enjoyed this one for the short time it lasted. Sorry scum for the major grilling on day 2. See you next time
