Something_Smart, Hella Jeff, NorwegianboyEE
Almost50, Gamma Emerald, Andante, Dwlee99
April Ludgate, osuka, Azaariah, T3, geraintm

I opened up a notepad and put everyone's names into it and tiered them by feeling/vague memory of the game which... this list feels pretty poor, but I can't place why. I feel good about the top three being town, but the rest is "okay but null." or "not okay but nullish still". It doesn't feel like there's anyone obvious right now.

Part of it is putting both Azaariah and T3 into a tier together? I don't think they're S/S so there's one discrepancy. I don't think that it conveys maybe how unsure I am about people as well as I want but trying to sort with more tiers felt like a futile task.

I don't have a better reply to you "but feelings." S_S just feels town to me and maybe I'll try to verbalize it later but I've had that sense for the majority of the game.

I kinda want to just kill T3 unless he can justify his read on me because it feels like he's trying to frame me as his partner or something

OK, this has nothing to do with the game, but it has been bugging me for quite a few days with no explanation at all:

Whenever I open my subscription page, and no matter where this thread is placed on the screen, the mod's name under the thread title appears like this:

MegAzumar
ill


If I look at her name inside the thread, or in her profile, or in other games.. or literally anywhere else in the site it appears as normal (all white). Only in the case I described above do I get the "ill" in light pink.

Can anyone even think of an explanation to this phenomenon?

you don't believe in town at first sight? :0
our experiences with holiday will obv be different because we don't share the same thought processes, but i think they're more than a generally likeable slot to me. like, if i were to sort people 'playing it safe', i'd put myself below holiday, there's more than a few of his posts where it's like he takes the hidden opinions inside my brain and flaunts them
In post 1202, April Ludgate wrote:geraintm - a lot of focus on day 1 reads not meaning anything, honestly, this is right in line with how i feel geraint feels about day 1, and i understand that's how he thinks.
however, he might just be stating a fact about his mafilosophy, which could be coming from scum.
speaking of flaunting, i do see a lot of that pattern among your top town and nobody else. t3, geraint, and S_S to an extent have all done it.

In case of an investigation by any federal entity or similar, I do not have any involvement with the Mafia or with the people in it, I do not know how I am hard aligned with them, probably a false narrative by similarly nefarious thrid parties, I do not support any actions by the members of the Mafia.

In post 1224, Azaariah wrote:well maybe i do scum read t3. but i feel that way with just about everyone considering me as a possibility today. it's annoying that there are no actual reasons to be pushing me.
geraint says "one naughty point for you for jumping from one failed wagon to another" which is ??? given my aggressive pushes, you really think i would've just given up or you think im afraid to be 1v1ing? the aggressive pushes just dont come from scum but even if they did, they mean i am playing the risky game. then why would i hold back? andante is still a very real mislim option and i had built up a lot on them. even more, i decide to post a huge post about why andante needs to die even as town right before a 180 shift to a townread and a completely retracted push? make that make sense.
I am afraid i am going to have to respond to this from Aza. The reason for my vote wasn't "a naughty point for switching wagons".
It was "So far this game i have given 4 naughty points, and 3 were to Aza, and a 75% rate going to one person feels noteworthy.
the 3 times were not all for switching wagons. One was a naked vote just to generate pressure with no explanation.
one was for admitting you don't believe in the things you are saying - which makes you impossible to read and is awful
3rd was for the quick switch of wagons when your big initial push was stalling.

you keep on saying "Geraint is voting me because i moved wagons" is not correct and has annoyed me enough to explain to you. and i can't work out if you are deliberately focussing on one part so you can try and refute it, or if you just weren't aware of all the times i've noted things about you that have caught my interest.

i have no idea how people have town blocks just from posting. i can sometimes get read on people in day 2 that i thing are strongly likely to be town (wiki last game) but that is through a combination of votes and talking. but to have huge groups of people...baffles me/

their iso is pretty long but im not going to dig through this all. posts like these two come right after each other.

andante hasn't actually done anything this game besides shade and pocket players. it may be that their personality is bright and cheery but people like that tend to be a little more trusting or extremely paranoid depending on which side they lean towards. this is highly likely to just be scum play.

i've posted a forth of andante's post count yet i can say with certainty that i've said more on the game than andante has.
