    Pinging myself to remind myself to check in on this; would definitely like a follow-up if there hasn't been one.

    Well. That is short and the reasoning is limited, yes.

    I would have some trouble lynching him today, but got damn him not even checking for a single second on the live thread while catching up is tilting me.

    He said a thing that aligned with a thing I was thinking. Multiple times even.

    Have you even read enough of the parts of the game he is quoting to have mindmeld reads?

    I think if Gemma was a villager and I were a wolf, I'd consider her somewhat of an easy target, or at least a lazy one. If Gemma's a villager this game, then part of her villager game is a fundamental way of writing or phrasing things that comes off as extremely stilted / wolfy. ISO me, I've pointed out a few of them. Like, if she's a villager, they're not actually coming from a wolf mindset, but 3-4 times this game she's written a sentence or phrase that I don't think anyone who's passably experienced with mafia would read and not instinctively go "wolf!"

    Kind of like, a surface level "pushing on things that sound wolfy as opposed to pushing on things that make someone actually likely to be a wolf" thing.

    Hum.

    I both agree with the content of this post and don't particularly like the way Gemma went about doing it.

    Feels too... structured, I guess? It's neat and tied together, but like - okay I'm having trouble articulating exactly what my issue is. I think it's this -

    The "or burn" comment to fonti in particular feels like the way he talks when he's mafia trying to look unafraid

    "so it feels like he came in and saw me pushing on fonti and wanted to join in"

    It's... painting him; subtly shoving the narrative onto him as opposed to presenting the narrative as a neutral thing that exists and then talking about why it's more or less likely.

    Merp.

    The issue with this post is that it implies Cobalt townread Jan if he had that reaction while under lynch pressure. That doesn't seem like a real thing Cobalt would think.
