    Since I didn't get a chance to address this:

    I gave my reads multiple times throughout D1. Check, and if you find them lacking, let me know.

    Not GD, but I get the feeling the coven didn't take that claim seriously.

    ---------- Post automerged at 23:30 ---------- Previous post was at 23:30 ----------

    Vote Koalas

    I'll let that simmer for a bit.

    ---------- Post automerged at 23:40 ---------- Previous post was at 23:30 ----------

    I think owner being a witch looks good for Newcomb.

    ---------- Post automerged at 23:41 ---------- Previous post was at 23:40 ----------

    By that I mean Newcomb isn't hard bussing or hard defending, just sort of trying to get into her head and shrugging when he doesn't find anything town-indicative.

    ---------- Post automerged at 23:42 ---------- Previous post was at 23:41 ----------

    EOD1VC

    owner [9]: Newcomb, The Waco Kid, Regfan, Vira, Cobalt, Jarizok, Vaimes, Atum, Koalas
    Rubicon [3]: Fable, Delphine, His Fluffiness
    Jarizok [2]: owner, KaiDASH
    Regfan [2]: Jan, Fontisian
    Koalas [1]: Miner
    Miner [1]: Rubicon

    ---------- Post automerged at 23:45 ---------- Previous post was at 23:42 ----------

    So. Bussing owner. It probably happened.

    I can nab the posts that convinced me, but I'm striking Newcomb. I'm town. Atum, Vira, and Cobalt are townreads, but I should probably sanity-check myself at some point instead of mindlessly townreading them from D1 to endgame.

    [The Waco Kid, Regfan, Jarizok, Koalas]

    What a fun lynch pool.

    Vaimes - I think the idea of "Lets look at the wagon and decide the lynch inside those names as the lynch pool" is a terrible idea, it was done in Jurrasic Park where it was all town on town D1 and again in Marketplace where it was done on all town on scum D1. Need to look more at the context behind the lynch and most of the Owner votes where "Vote to secure a lynch" which means they mean nothing other than that player was online when a vote was needed.

    This is before Koalas has anything to say for himself about owner.

    "Answer my questions or I'll have to bus you."

    This looks more like Koalas wanting to justify not voting owner than actually trying to get a read on her.

    And then he votes for her, with absolutely zero comment on the Oracle reveal; instead he shifts the angle and makes it look like he's voting her purely for not answering his questions, and not because everyone was piling onto owner after Miner got cleared.

    ---

    I just remembered Fable posted this and wanted to point out how funny I thought it was.

    (It's fucking hilarious.)

    ---------- Post automerged at 23:57 ---------- Previous post was at 23:56 ----------

    You do you, I'll do me.

    If you disagree with the read itself, we can talk about it. The method is my business.

    ---------- Post automerged 05-03-2017 at 00:01 ---------- Previous post was 05-02-2017 at 23:57 ----------

    And they weren't "vote to secure a lynch," they were "Miner got towncleared and owner is super scummy, let's lynch her."

    I don’t think a quote a person is a good way of clearing people.

    Yeah, this is a problem. KaiDASH, his fluffiness, can I have some explanations with votes, please?

    Can you link me to a town and scum game of yours?

    Thanks, I’ll check later.

    Are you arguing the four other scum didn’t bus? What’s wrong with at least looking?

    I mean, sure, let's say owner wasn't bussed at all.

    Take out Jan, Miner, and Delphine.

    The entire scumteam would be in [Fable, fluff, owner, Kai, font, Rubicon]. Six names, five witches. I personally don't think Fable is scum, and doubt that the remaining names is the exact team.

    Which means there is at least one witch on the owner wagon. I think it's Koalas. Feel free to talk to me about the Koalas read, or maybe if you agree/disagree with clearing Newcomb.

    Not GD. Agree that GD should claim here.

    Owner's post at deadline felt kinda like a scumclaim to me, but like. Why make it in a no-filp game? Town!GD, town!Apprentice, that info always coming out? Eh I'm not going down that road.

    The early pileup on Reg is kind of. Head-tilting?

    Either I'm just being dumb again and he's obviously a wolf and my reads are shit this game, or something weird is going on. Like, assume Reg is town for a second. Scum think they can get that mislynch, reeeeeally? Like, if you assume fonti's town too, I was wavering on him a little EoD, she went at him, scum just think we'll drive that and start the engine?

    Doesn't quite feel right.

    Assuming owner was actually a witch, those Reg/owner interactions. Man. That would be some quality ass scum theater. Like, I didn't even read all those posts. And I read every post like three times.

    That was like the only thing owner did, too. I'm trying to imagine the scumchat conversation - Reg's like, "well owner you're never making it to D3 like this, so the best thing you can do is have a super long super awkward conversation with me that will feel like pulling each other's teeth out for everyone reading it and create an unalignment with me."

    Meh. I don't super buy that, either?

    I'm going to go look at those interactions again and actually read them this time, no matter how painful it is. Owner leaking frustration is probably NAI but if Reg takes an angle that's just super weird to think of as scum that's potentially a good look?

    That's all assuming owner's mafia here, so like. GD claim would be good here.

    Waco, Koalas, Rubicon, Jarizok

    ^ make those people dead I think? Make some of them dead, at least.

    Fluff

    ^ make that person dead unless he stops openly wolfing ITT, your stupid fucking meta can go jump off a cliff

    Fonti, Regfan, Fable

    ^ make these people keep trying to solve the game

    Vira, Vaimes, Cobalt, Atum

    ^

    Potential we're getting snowed by a person in this group.... not, super high?

    Delphine, Miner

    ^ Make them spew the other 3 people on their team, :thumbs

    KaiDASH

    ^

    Saw someone maybe a couple people had him as fairly solid town. Would like to get it.

    I want to take that last sentence back in the name of DLP's writing standards.

    ---------- Post automerged at 09:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:32 PM ----------

    <3

    Do you have anything resembling a read on Kai here?

    ---------- Post automerged at 09:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:32 PM ----------

    Like, if you put a gun to my head and told me to figure out Kai I'd just starting going "he's not quite being enough of a shitgoblin to be town and I feel like that read makes everyone involved in it a worse person."

    Vote: Regfan

    It's the new Vote: Miner.

    On a more serious note, I agree with Vira that Miner ghosting til day end just to spite town is so anti-town that town!Miner isn't worth consideration. That being said, fontisian can you just say what you want about owner and Reg being around, because it seems like no one's going to do it for you here and I suck at that sort of read.

    Not much movement yet, but R.U.B- I mean Rubicon the Curt's naked vote actually made me feel better about him and Kalas is losing some points for being hella defensive, which is not something I remember to expect from him. Not sure why I'm bothering with any of this, but it was pretty easy so that's cool. Feel free to ask questions or something, I need direction.

    I'm kind of okay with Waco? He fluffed around with owner a bit while having her pretty low on his readslist, which feels like it'd be weird for ww.

    Almost never.

    If I start having too many townreads, it means he and font are witches.

    I mean.

    Without really going back to verify how much I agree with that characterization of Waco/Owner, if you told me that Player A "fluffed around with Player B a bit while having her pretty low on his readslist," to me that says >rand to be w/w.

    Why do you have Vira higher than Delphine/Miner?

    Possibly, but that just means it's my own original thought then. So I'll re-state.

    Pretty sure that last EoD comment from owner kills any world where she's town. Unless someone's got meta for her being that petty?

    ---------- Post automerged at 23:40 ---------- Previous post was at 23:40 ----------

    I have a random paranoid theory that's entirely unlikely, but keeps me awake at night. It's much too embarrasing to post ITT.

    Maybe I'm projecting how I'd handle a scumbuddy onto Waco.

    I'd want them to stop doing what they're doing that's getting them scumread (owner was hiding behind fluff instead of mixing it with her content), so scum!Waco more or less encouraging it would be ???.

    Hm. I think that would depend on the timing?

    Like, that Miner mislynch was in the bag until Delphine claimed. And there was no breathing room between that and the shift to owner for anything else to happen.

    Pre claim though it's more like. An easy way to interact?

    I should actually go read these if I want to have an opinion though.

    Added to the list.
