Gotcha. I assure you all questions I have asked and thoughts I have shared are too find the wolves. We have reached a point in the game where people hesitate to say too much in fear of being marked as a wolf. I don't know how else to try and find who really is a wolf other than examining what has been said and questioning it, but since people hesitate to say much it makes it difficult. I'm sure that is the intent of the game though lol.

It is only the dogies who should be afraid of talking to much. The people show should be marked as wolfs are those that talk to little. The only villager who needs to be careful is the seer, as he/she/it would be the primary target for the dogies. So the seer must be careful to not seem any different than an other villager, and it is in the villagers best interest to never discuss the seer or what the seer may know until the seer is ready to divulge their role.

Villagers should not be afraid to talk a lot, they should have nothing to hide.

I agree with this. I also think people are not talking in fear of things being used against them or twisted. But without talking and posting we do not have a game. Yes I was one of the non talkers in the beginning. I had no idea what to say or what to do, but the more I am reading and talking the more fun it is and the more I am understanding the game.

If it helps, I have never known what to say until I press 'enter'. I surprise myself many times reading my own posts.

The majority to lynch is FIVE VOTES

Sorry guys (and Sage :)), had a pretty busy weekend (unplanned, else I'd have let you know).

Gonna spend some time reading through the posts and I'll get back into the game.

So, I had stated before how you sometimes can tell combinations of people that are very likely not both scum. It think type of game with only two wolves, they really cannot throw each other under the bus this early in the game.

I see two such clear combinations.
The first was GDW and HijacK. I see no possible way they both can be wolves.
Then there is Popperik and GDW. As Popperik came down hard on him, the same is true here.

What is important is that if we discover a wolf, reading back through the posts, you can often find people who clearly cannot also be a wolf by their actions. In this case, if we were to lynch GDW and he was a wolf, it would actually clear two people.

Since Amok likes making charts. I'll do one in his style. Those on the top I give a higher chance of wolfdom.
GDW - Just hasn't said much to defend himself. Was he just really happy to not die day 1 or really happy not to die day 1 as a wolf?
Popperik - I'll move him down a slot given his explanation. Just disturbs me that he had early posts that seemed to help start wagons.
Amok - I've only ever seen him play as scum, then again I had only played as scum until this one.
HijacK - I just can't really imagine he can be so vocal and be a wolf, but I can't imagine he says some of the things he says.
Krypsen - Too talented a player to read.
Trentonlf - There was a post that made me worry a little, but he has made a lot of posts and the rest seem pro-town.
mrkgnao - I really think he's town.
Sage103082 - If she's not town, I'm playing the wrong game.

What does everyone else think? Impressions? Feelings? The more we talk, the more we learn together. Communication is the key to winning and not letting the wolves lurk...

Looks deceive.

So are you now saying I shouldn't have moved you down the list? You are starting to give Amok a run for his money in confusing me.

Looks don't deceive, people deceive.

Looking at your image, I see a kind girl off to to the forest to chop firewood for her ailing grandmother and a dishevelled young man who vandalises public gardens. Most suspicious of all, though, is the cameraman, who instead of walking behind the two subjects to reveal their backside for the second photo, asked them to turn around.

GDW- stated was excited about the next stage and placed his vite to move the wagon along for SW. Since the next stage has started has rarely posted, and when does post is just repeating what others have said. This to me feels real scummy. I keep wanting to say it's him being new and unsure, but we should be past the point that being new stops you from posting your thoughts in the game.

HijacK- I agree that Hijack and GDW both are probably not wolves. HijacK wants us to believe he is the only one who can find the wolves by using logic and without him we are doomed. Sounds like he is trying to say "Don't kill me, you need me to win". He used the defense of not wanting to put a target on his back by saying SW was innocent, yet puts a target on his back by saying he is invaluable to the town winning. Would the wolves not target him for a Night kill if they thought he was sniffing them out? So he can't put a target on his back on the first vote, but now he can? Either he really thinks he is the savior for the town or he is a wolf trying to make himself look like a valued villager.

Popperik- Was the second vote for GDW and many of the posts made by him the first round seem to be nudging others to get the wagon rolling on GDW. Since the Night kill has happened he has not persued his belief that GDW was a wolf even though a lot of GDW's actions feel scummy. Makes it look like he is waiting for another wagon to start to help nudge.

Amok- He makes very subtle points in his funny posts. Is the humor meant to throw us off? I find it hard to not like amok as town because he makes me laugh, but all he could be doing is making it seem like he is everyone's best friend so we don't suspect him. He was not here for the first vote so it's harder to read him.

Krypsyn- has made many great points and seems to want to find whoever the wolves are. But is it a front to throw us off from suspecting him?

RWarehall- same as Krypsyn, although he has made very thought out town pro posts and I find it hard to see him as a wolf.

Mrkgnao- I have trouble reading him, but he seems to lean town. I am not sure if it's a facade or not.

Sage- probably the only one I'm safe on saying is town.

My revised list of reads (town reads towards the top, scum reads towards the bottom):

Sage103082 - Although her vote places on Day 1 struck me as scummy, her recent posts on Day 2 have all struck me as extremely pro-town. Even her early indecisiveness seems pro-town in retrospect. The only thing that bothers me is how she said I might be "laying low" in post 281; it might be the first time I have ever been accused of laying low in a Mafia game!. But, really, none of this matters more than the fact that she is cuter and smells better than the rest of you.

trentonlf - I find his posts to be very pro-town. I might be biased though, because he and I have had very similar analysis since the beginning of the Day.

popperik - I am still not seeing what other see in his posts. He still seems like town trying to get a read on things, and voicing his thought process as he goes. It just seems too transparent (for lack of a better word) to be scummy or misleading.


RWarehall - His posts go both ways for me. Part of the problem may be that his are the posts I am most closely looking at, since he foiled me so badly last game. At this point, i am not seeing much, and what I do see makes me wonder if I am jumping at shadows. Thus, he gets the middle "I dunno yet" spot for me.

mrkgnao - I had a slightly scum read on him at the start of the Day, and nothing much has changed. He has been agreeable and helpful all Day, but has he been too agreeable and helpful? Reading back over his posts, he seems to have shied away from ruffling too many feathers. It might be because it is his first game, perhaps it is just his personality in general, or perhaps he is trying to hide in plain sight. I am not sure.

amok - Humor can be used to distract, confuse, and mislead. Worse, it can be used as an excuse later. I am uneasy about the grudge comment he made in post 290. It is a loaded question, and, when pressed about the motivations for it, he deflected by making a joke.

HijacK - Some folks mention that he is just too over-the-top to be scum. The argue that his posts are motivated more from wanting to stay in the game, rather than any nefarious origin. Perhaps, but I can see it going both ways. What I know is that he has behaved in the least pro-town manner of any of the players. Most of his posts are defensive, and what analysis exists I find to be pretty weak and mostly interested in directing attention off of himself (rather than actually towards anyone - except me).

What about GDW?

Dammit! Thanks for pointing that out.

Okay.. my list, with GreenDigitalwolf:

Still from Villager to Wolf, top to bottom:

Sage103082
trentonlf
popperik
Rwarehall

GreenDigitalWolf - He made some very questionable comments early in the game, and has since gotten a bit quiet. Either he is a wolf attempting to stay low and/or he is wary of making any more regrettable comments. I place him close to neutral, because I can't shake the feeling he was, and still is, being set up. He is still leaning slightly scum for me, however.

mrkgnao
amok
HijacK

Lets break this stalemate

Vote Hijab

Because if he is not a dogie, then most definitely Krypsen, Mr. GoGo or Trenton is one.

He also attempts to steal my copyright.
