Do you think dann could fake the introspection and adjustment to his approach with the TL players this game?

I found that really townie to be honest.
Eh I find that pretty nai because it’s a neutral way of observing the game. How we play has nothing to do with our alignment. At least with what he described.
Why can't he just join in with Luca and yell at me and mislim me if he is mafia, Like he definitely could have done that and chose to re-evaluate.

I don't know about that but he should form the two following thoughts:

Are these wagons town on town?
He voted gob previously so clearly he doesn't think that.

If he thought gob was mafia, why vote Oats who was just coming around to vote gob (unless he assumed that was a setup for a bus)?

If Oats isn't bussing he can only be partnered with you, so if he thinks gob is the mafia being wagoned, how can he ever suspect Oats for prepping a vote on him?
I'd like to see dann's response to this.

Anywho, I know i hVe contributed basically nothing. I am coming out and saying, its nkt happening for 36 hours so do with that what you will.
Idk gob what did you do day 1?
Saying i contributed "basically nothing" is more of a figure of speech because i wanted to do more day 1. But basically I spent day 1 splitting the game into smaller chunks like i always do. I also try to open people up for others to read them. Because i can't read everyone well but i can interact with everyone and create favorable situations.

Anyways im not gonna lie, i feel like the reason I haven't been as engaged in this game is because of you oats, ninja, darthpunk, etc. No offense of course.
Okay that’s fine and all but why did you just act like it was absurd for me to say that your day 1 was bad?
Cause compared to you and most other players i've done about 10x more with half the posts.

At least I can bin the Grack + you scenario now. If he was bussing he would have unbussed by now.

It strikes me that gob really wants to survive more than solve in this game.

Why would they do that?
I don’t know gob, why don’t you tell me your best guess
It just doesn't make sense why a cop would out if they dont have a redcheck. There is no reason to out otherwise. The way Hu Tao played day 1 though does make more sense though.
What about if Hu Tao was not a cop?
If hu Tao is town fakeclaiming, then they would claim a redcheck on someone they find scummy, usually. Its possible Hu Tao is running cover though.
If Hu Tao is mafia fakeclaiming, then it also doesnt really make sense since it puts a target on her back unnecessarily.


It's actually not good to talk about this anymore though. And like i said before it doesnt really matter either way at this point.
Why did you like dp's vote in the earlier post but then say that it doesnt make sense for hu tao to be mafia doing what she did in the later post?

That’s the second super scummy thing she has done this game , it’s crazy to me how she is just written off as town.
In what world was I trying to out a counterclaim. Why do you always try to twist whatever I'm doing?
I really wanna poke back at this. Is it so unreasonable to view your actions as trying to out a counter claim?
You did seem to clarify that there are often 3 town prs and 2 of them can be investigative so I assume that this is no longer something you think DP is scum for?

Yes. But even after saying that, DP still stated he thinks I was trying to out cop. Maybe he missed the post but seems weird

Got it. I see it now.

Re: the first point about Luca being "defensive" in response to Hu Tao's gambit, that's not entirely accurate. Here's the first thing Luca said after Hu Tao suggested they had a guilty:
In post 2597, Luca Blight wrote: Why are people voting me when Hu Tao said she has a guilty on someone?

I'm going to be busy most of today so won't be around much.

Even though he's referring to himself, the intent here seems to be a lot more about why people are starting a wagon when we anticipate an investigator guilty read later. And that's a totally legitimate question to ask.

As for the stuff about Naerys not knowing everything that happened with Roden, yes, that makes her less likely to be scum. If anything, I would have expected her to talk to her teammates overnight where all the relevant game info would be discussed. But we can't rule out the possibility that she's playing some 4D chess with us and intentionally acting like she has no idea what is going on in order to make us feel this way. But like...I admit that's less likely.

My scum pool is Naerys / Gob / Grack / Oats. Obviously I'm wrong about at least 1 of them. Naerys is the only one of the four voting for someone else in that pool, so based on votes alone, that certainly suggests that she's the one I'm wrong about here.

the whole luca contradicted himself by saying ninja's posts reflects his thoughts on the game almost entirely thing does nothing for me

the most compelling points to me were about luca seeming passive and being content with the gamestate and overly reasonably

i'm not really seeing the latter anymore

as i said the former does nothing for me

I'm just a little confused about your read progression on me.

You seemed to predominantly townread me on D1, despite some of the more passive and reasonable behaviour that you mentioned. You say you're not seeing that behaviour anymore, so why do you seem so conflicted in your read on me currently?
