JoeSapphire: This list because I eliminated
zfr - his tone at the beginning of toDay. I think I had something more concrete to trust him on but maybe I didn't. I don't think scumzfr tunnels so hard on carradice
carradice - because I didn't have much reason to scumread him when he was getting lynched, and it made sense to me to look elsewhere while we had his uncontested cop claim
flockeschnee - based on her general conduct throughout the game
supplementscene - based on his start to toDay - I believed his smugness about town-reading SirP and gogtrial, and thought he was being fairly clear and logical at the begninning. Irrelevant now but I just wanted to be smug about my own read.
trent and dedo because I did a miniature process of elimination
-
vitek I think makes a good amount of jokes and gentle humour while also providing some neat little bits of insight. It just occured to me that the fact I'm not suspicious of him should maybe make me suspicious but whatever. Shut up counter-brain no-one likes you.
-
microfish, fairly typical microfish. I started by misunderstanding him and giving him scumlean, so he swings back in my perception as more of a town-lean. That's maybe illogical of me, but micro has a similar relaxed and jovial attitude as vitek, and I find it hard to associate it with scum. If they're on a team together that would be great.
-
lifthrasil for the would-mean-he-was-working-to-convince-Joe-particularly thing.
-
yogsloth because his tone doesn't feel particularly like scum yogsloth. I associate scum yogsloth with that hypnotic infectious enthusiastic energy. I just see vaguely-distracted participation and derps.
trent I have no reason to think is mafia or town. Maybe I saw him coming to microfish' defense which might indicate a teamship, but maybe not. But he is leftover. I can picture him choosing gogtrial to kill. And electing for a block-the-cop strategy, if that is indeed what we're seeing...
dedo I don't have a particular read on either, but he hasn't called me sexy in a while so maybe I'm just subconsciously reacting to that.
Okay. What has changed?
-
zfr ZFR has been going for carradice with believable conviction. If he's scum this would be a risky move played very well. If carradice is town, zfr's probably town. If carradice is mafia zfr's certainly town.
-
carradice he's getting lynched for sure. I still think he's probably town, and I'm gonna feel real stupid if he flips mafia, because there's so much about the way he did the cop claim, his lack of reads today, and this recent stubbornly-refusing-to-explain-himself that scream mafia.
-
flockeschnee I still wanna say town. I like how she told trent and (dedo was it?) not to pocket her, that felt genuine. Thinking Carradice might be town but not an actual cop verges on the rare and coveted "derpclear", do you think so? If carradice is town the mafia have surely been treating him as a genuine cop - enough to block him.
If he's mafia... then the derp doesn't ferp: We must aquerp.
-
yogsloth I'm not sure about the way he's approached today it seems fairly suspect, but the way he responded to the initial question about the role name and dedo's follow up, I dunno, it seemed pretty clear to me that he knew what dedo was getting at... it all seemed genuine that. Also the "I'm old and drunk and live for the queen." It makes sense that he's just paraphrasing his role flavour.
-
dedoporno the read I did made me think perhaps town, then the thing at yogsloth makes it pretty likely dedo's town.
-
lifthrasil if he's mafia he did mind manipulation to force me to think he's not mafia and I refuse to accept that.
-
vitek now that I read dedo, vitek's looking more likely, because I've basically eliminated everybody. But he did that thing where he told me I'd scum read him and then I didn't. He feels genuine.
-
microfish microfish too. He's here because someone's got to be mafia. But he's generally fairly microfishy.
-
trent other than maybe kind of distant feel I'm getting from him this game, I don't have much reason to scum read him except that it' hard to see it being anyone else.
This makes me feel a little better about the inevitable carradice lynch. Though I guess I shouldn't get my hopes up because if carradice turns up town it's looking pretty grim.
Does anyone else feel like doing some general reads? Trying to establish a town core? Might be good to use this time to consider other scenarios.
I also forgot to say good news on the results trent, hope you feel better soon
