@apennine

Zone is being silly with his aggression and there isn’t much to read into at first, but in post #50 and #52 he takes the extra step of trying to proactively sort through whether people are town or mafia. This is a positive sign to me, it isn’t simply a performative tunnel, there’s the aside about gummy as well. He’s probably town for the persistence in trying to make things happen.

@apennine

@Jaiden

Doing this makes the game less fun for others thats all man

This post from Jaiden also rings true to me, it sounds more like town who’s already exhausted having to deal with this than mafia frustrated or worried about already being attacked.

@apennine

I don’t see the similarities at all, to be honest?

All three of those games he’s quite a bit more reactive and responding to things as they develop. He does give reads, but it’s in more of a backseat way rather than feeling like he’s forcing the game to revolve around him.

The thing that primarily stood out to me here was his repitition of posting that felt like trying to squeeze blood from a stone, looking back to glean new reads from old posts even when nothing new has happened, and a sense of frustration that nobody else is doing anything to progress the game so he has to do it.

That isn’t present in those examples.

When I first saw these posts I thought TMI mayhaps

On second thought it just seems like the takes are consensus-ish which is unfair to wolfread for I think

@apennine

Gummy does feel awkward to me and some of the thoughts they’ve given feel lacking in the solidity that would convince me they’re real.

But! I do like the way they seem pretty unconcerned with being pushed from several angles and I might just believe them that the awkwardness is something they’re used to hearing. I don’t have them as town but they wouldn’t be my first choice to push.

Kind of don’t like this post if I force myself to have a thought on it but weh

@apennine

I like this thought process. If pandora is mafia who catches up and then acknowledges she doesn’t have any wolfreads, then proceeds to find one, I would expect that to be done for the sake of looking like she’s solving. Immediately walking it back seems less likely to come from someone who has hidden goals behind their thoughts.

I like this post tho

[carbonated]

@Mistyx

carb of nated how are you today

hiiii i am doing good but i am also i don’t want to die on day 1 for like the sixth game in a row now and mood just went (this is not just fol qbcord too )

@Frostwolf103

Yes I think Gummy/Carbonated/??? is PoE worth pursuing. I see no further improvments and substitute is worth considering.

??? i’m sorry like what??

@Aleph

i’ve been voting carbon since the opening kinda ignoring the RVS votes is the logical thing to do regardless of alignment lol

seriously. that’s not a social read!!

@pandora

I waaaaant to say Jaiden

why jaiden

@pandora

I thiiiiiink I trust frost more then carbonated? I think. I think.
VOTE: carbonated

@pandora

if votes stay the same here mark me down as responsible for carbonated dying over frost

but this feels irresponsible to the game
my faith in your towniness slowly ticks downwards but you have such a towny opening ugh.

can y’all just please not kill me i don’t want to die. again.

@spookycat27

I’d be chill with sticking to gummy

i feel like the slot has neither contributed in a way that gives town or gives negative vibes

i’m willing to skim apennine. actually i want to skim spooky too. in fact, i’ll do that right now.

[spookycat27]

I don’t want to vote apennine anymore

[spookycat27]

@Frostwolf103

I will hold you responsible for ignoring my read on Carbonated

what was that read again? idr

[Mistyx]

pandora <-> jaiden
childe → spooky

rolling with all of these and zone town that leaves frost gummy carbo ishy and pen

mkay

[spookycat27]

Gummy zone not aligned I saw a zone post in frostwolf iso

[spookycat27]

@Mistyx

pandora <-> jaiden
childe → spooky

huh

are these associations ?

[Mistyx]

was looking at who people said their top townreads were when i asked

if you wanna throw your hat in the ring feel free

[apennine]

@spookycat27

On second thought it just seems like the takes are consensus-ish which is unfair to wolfread for I think

I take issue with them being called consensus when I don’t think other people had given those takes before me!

[spookycat27]

perhaps that is true

When I voted Carbonated.

[spookycat27]

I meant moreso saying the reads were easy to fake (ie most everyone is townreading zone for the same reason so likely wolves are/would see it too) but I phrased it poorly
