Let me look at snowe before I go to bed tonight, and I will try my best to appraise catbae’s posts tomorrow. I do believe both are wolves, but I will try my best to go into this with an open mind.
First off, let’s set the context. snowe has ostensibly randed a role where she gets more powerful the more she is suspected:
So the first 50! or so snowe posts are basically her just making funny posts and fluffposting:
She stops doing this when she posts the following and I vote her to give her the attention she desired.
From here, she starts playing conventionally for the second half of Day 1. Let me look at her posts from this stage.
First off, I don’t like how she had to bookend this with “idk how good jarek is at wolfing now”. She’s giving herself an out to reverse her read with later if needed.
Votes MKP with scant reasoning as to why they could be a wolf (they’re self conscious about votes on themself, but it’s not the /most/ AI thing in the world).
This is where snowe does try to interrogate Rue about how she’s been treating her and to her credit this is what she meant earlier today by stating trying to “get her to do things i would see as a towntell and she hasn’t”. I do think that this attempt to read Rue - by asking her pointed questions to give her the opportunity for her to townread her - is townie.
Moves the needle into fully townreading Jarek.
She explains more about why she votes MKP here.
Switches over to o.kazo once momentum starts building towards them (I think I voted them, then Altina, then her) once Rue posts her vote on O.kazo.
Okay, this attempt at analyzing snowe’s posts is garbage because I’m so tired/sleepy, but if there is any world where snowe is just super disengaged town struggling to kind of latch onto the game thread or play, then it’s possibly within these posts.
The summary of snowe’s posting is:
- Fluffpost early D1 to garner wolfreads
- Post more conventionally D2 once called out on fluffposting
- Townreading Jarek for a couple of posts
- Votes MKP for them being self conscious about being voted
- Tries to get a handle on Rue
- Realizes that reasons for voting MKP aren’t as strong, moves to O.kazo instead
- Switches vote to T3M for self pres at EoD
- Has done very little D2 besides confirm their existing stance on Rue.
It’s difficult to gauge if snowe is a wolf or a townie with low WIM/motivation as only the second half of D1 they played “conventionally”. Their posts once starting to play conventionally were solid but I don’t see anything from snowe I would consider to be a strong town tell outside of her treatment of Rue.
I will try to look at this once again tomorrow to see if I can nail down something but it’s the lack of content which is the problem here.
It’s just like - for catbae and snowe, I’m being forced to ask myself the question with both of them, “are these players townies with low WIM/motivation, or are they just a wolf?” and I feel like if I’m asking that question too many times, Occam’s razor sometimes just dictates that they are a wolf.
