These are my current reads as of right now.
Titus's partner is probably in the null pile.

Actually Duke might be slightly below null. And Town Looter is the townlean i'm least confident on. But otherwise that's where i'm at.

I'm not really comfortable with voting any more until I get some more information.

I think we've got a fair bit of information already.
Do you have any current reads? Town? Mafia?

This is how I got to Town!Zurel, since it's been heavily debated, I think it worth posting my reasoning:
In post 13, Zurel wrote:If I die early, can I put my name in the next newbie game sign-up? Or can I already do that now?
VOTE: NorwegianboyEE
Reason: Because.
In post 17, Zurel wrote:Thanks. I'll see what I'm going to do once I get a hang of the game.
So for this random stage, is it necessary for us to get someone eliminated? Also, can someone refrain from voting? Because they're pacifist maybe.
These two posts demonstrate genuine noobiness - consistent lack of understanding across
both
how the site works and how the game works. I don't someone faking noobiness doing this.
In post 24, Zurel wrote:So this will go on for ten literal days? What do people even talk about?
And then I don't see newb scum making this post. I can't see lack of content/conversation ever featuring in a scum thought process - unless they literally didn't even read the rules before they started posting, I think this comment comes from town 9 times out of 10.
In post 73, Salsabil Faria wrote:his/her being newbie doesn't mean that she/he has to be the townie! he/she can a newbie scum too, right? how do you reach the conclusion of his/her being townie here?
Their tone in their 3 posts so far have been very town. Newb!scum doesn't have the pre-necessitated skills to fake the type of content they've made, they just don't.
It's true that if i was scum i would know everyone's alignment beforehand. But calling out someone that could easily be elimination bait later on as town if i'm scum would be contrary to my wincon if i was mafia.
Not if you knew I wouldn't let you get away with denying his towniness.
For those wondering about what Titus means here:
- Let's say Zural says something very towny
- Let's say Norway is the sort of person to pick up on this when they themselves are town, and call it out
- Let's say Titus knows this about Norway and sits back and observes their reaction to towny thing Zural said
- Let's say Norway is scum, but is self-aware enough to know he needs to call out the towny thing Zural said because he knows someone like Titus might notice if he doesn't
- Norway then makes post calling Zural town, not because they want to solve the game, but because they know they need to keep up appearances
None should. It's the kind of contrived scenario scum makes up to justify their vote.

It's actually making me laugh just thinking about it.

Mine was an RVS vote shortly after yours.
It's not uncommon for "flash wagons" or E-2/E-1 during RVS as people tend to troll more during this phase, plus it's often used as a reaction test (especially in newbies).

Your responses have been terrible though and much different than Manatee's mafia, which I am sure TL sees that too.
Before I share my thoughts on Norway, humour me for a second: What is it you are seeing that is different?
Movie Fact: Taxi Driver was originally going to have an X Rating for being too bloody, but Scorsese had the colors de-saturated, making the brightly colored blood less prominent.
Just going off a gut feeling here, VOTE: NorwegianboyEE
This is an incredibly reliable method of decision and he is absolutely 100% scum.

Could be onto something here -- that unvote seems a bit wishywashy and strange to me. There's plenty of information, so what would there be to gain by claiming there isn't? Could be either a) confusion or b) desire to slow down the day, but I don't find either of those convincing, because the thread is not that complex yet and there's still
Norwegian seemed awfully chill about being at E/L-1, although I'm not sure that says a whole lot. That said, regarding Norwegian vs. Trendall, I don't think claiming somebody else to be town early on is particularly sketchy, especially given other people seem to independently agree about Zurel. So, despite all the weirdness, kinda leaning towards town on Norwegian.

These two stances don't match well so i'm wagering this slot is scum for now.
You know he was being ironic in the second one, no way you don't know that.
Vote: NorwegianboyEE
I'd also like to point out that this vote way back here also brought him to E/L-1 -- at that point it was Zurel, Looter, Duke, Trendall -- and nobody pointed it out.

Probably could've expressed that all better, but yeah, those are my thoughts on the game as it stands at the moment.

This isn't worth anything considering I'm a noob, but I don't feel like Titus is scum so despite all the argument Trendall and Norway were building against her, I don't want to vote her. This wagon seems better. Pretty sure it's not L-1 yet.

Maybe no one realised it since no one was updating the vc at that time. Also, people are currently reading Trendall as town so this wasn't suspicious. I guess. Don't mind me.

I'm pretty sure it's just Looter and yourself at this point, which would make it L-3 I believe.

Oh, yeah. I forgot Norway changed his vote to Titus.

TheDuke is my second option so not a bad wagon, but i still prefer Titus as the elimination of choice.

We have heaps of time to string out Titus if we need to, but I am keen to get Duke posting now.
