Nightfall.
If only you and me and dead people know hex, then only deaf people know hex.
I write RPG adventures, and blog about it, check it out.
I wrote this last night, and I wanted to delay posting it as long as possible. Enjoy the reading.
Sadly, I will not be around tomorrow around the time that night is resolved. I had hoped to drop this right as time ticked, so as not to influence scum in who they kill tonight, but its the wife's birthday, and she is much prettier than you guys. Plus I'd like to not get divorced. That being said, here are my (last?) reads. I apologize in advance for the formatting. I'm writing this at midnight, and mass quoting isn't happening, and trying to find reasonable breaks for streams of consciousness posts are always rough. AdrienIer. Likely town. While it is possible for the claim Saul made to be true, there are a LOT of moving parts. I felt that even the gambit Brick was making was questionable, so much to the point that I nearly changed my mind in the end, but the idea that they are setting up an open ended town cred builder like that, which requires one to be put heavily in the spotlight, and the other killed, is more than I can accept. Sunrise. Holy lurker. I mean I got busy as hell, and I don't imagine my post count is that great, especially when you take into account that I have a tendency of posting a series of single responses when I'm doing a big catchup, so you really have to divide my count by at least 2. Despite that, I think I still blow you away in posts. This could be strategic, it could be lazy, it could be boredom. Any way you slice it, it's questionable at best, and gives you a scum lean, or at the very least denies you any town cred. Dtay. I'm pretty sure Dtay is the last scum. My feelings leaned this way early on the first game day, in regards to the interaction between him and Saul. They were toned down by the second day, but I never really put him back in my town column completely. I see this as knowing that the vote on Zak isn't going to happen, so jumping along with the rest of scum to Matt in order to secure some semblance of early town cred. He does so after others point out how sketchy the Zak switch looks. He lurks for a good while, the comes back, writes a "read" of Qg, which concludes that he is scummy. Maybe. Then writes up a post about Fenn saying he looks townie. Maybe. Then he votes Fenn. He then writes a read of me. Concludes I'm scummy, thinks it's likely I'm a scumpair with Qg, still votes Fenn. Next day does a huge read of me, concludes I'm town. Maybe. Either way, my cases are bad, and shouldn't be paid attention to, especially since they are arguing against him. Goes absent a while, comes back and lists his current scum suspects as Lewwyn, Sunrise, and Qg, votes Sunrise. Next day, drops a vote on Gaspar after the train has almost left the track. No new arguments to give, just jumps on the train for the town cred. Brick joins him shortly after. Does a read on AdrienIer, even though he is voting Gaspar. Claims he could be town, could be scum, so could novice, so wants another day to decide. Now were getting into the late game, and we see a trend continuing. Makes another point questioning Adrien's towncred. Makes a point about how sunrise's argument is questionable. Makes another post questioning Saul's towncred, postulates he could be deep cover wolf. Notes that Adrien joined Brick on Novice vote, postulates could be wolf pair trying to save scum brother (gaspar). Does another "big read" on Adrien, finds him "null" until now, but now he is scummy. Maybe. In same post "reads" brick. Questions the gambit, says doesn't find anything about brick's play scummy, and says he gets town points for scan gambit. Does another read on novice. Finds he "could be scum" maybe, votes Adrien instead because adrien's town points are minor. Responds to novice post and decides maybe gambit could be real. Still thinks its unlikely. Decides doesn't make sense with brick as scum. Makes a big post to distance himself from brick. Does a huge "read" of brick, decides hes town, slips into the argument that I could be scum for my vote on matt. Maybe. Continues more brick "reads" finds him not suspicious at all. Maybe. Drops this. Lets him get off the attempt on Adrien, and lets him "secure" the lynch of brick, which was happening any way you look at it. Throws another attack at sunrise saying his lynch all liars thing is scummy (which I agreed with) but hedges a bit so it's a maybe scum tell. All dtay has done all game, is muddy the waters for everyone he could get his paws on. Of all his big reads, the only scum he reads was Brick, and finds him more concretely innocent than he did any townie he read, though that's not saying much given how much he hedged everything. Dtay has alternated between lurking, and posting large, ultimately meaningless because he refuses to actually weigh in on them, posts about townies, which serve no purpose other than to make them look fishy. It is a tool that has allowed him to slide by with only minimal suspicion from anyone, without every really contributing anything to the game. He makes a perfect deep cover wolf, as he has made no real enemies, had limited interaction with the wolves, and was never the key pusher on any lynch. I think if the surviving town looks at him in the morning, through this lens, they will see a very different dtay than they had previously envisioned. Good luck town. Be prepared for endless WIFOM'ing tomorrow. Incoming Charlie Foxtrot.
A few thoughts for now (actual logical post will come closer to deadline I think) :
Sunrise you'll have to fullclaim at the dawn tomorrow if you don't die. Maybe it'll be useless but it's safer for town, and it's not like keeping it a secret will help in any way. What are you guys' thoughts on BRick's associate ? Any leads ? Post them 5mn before deadline if you're afraid of being too right. Do you guys think I'm cleared (or cleared enough) and that I'll be targeted tonight ? I'm not sure if I should give away who I'm suspecting because I'm not certain I'll be NK'ed and don't want to point a gun to my head (or give someone the opportunity to WIFOM the hell out of it). I don't like that there have been no posts since just after deadline but I understand the reasons for it.
@Adrien - Yep, I'll claim tomorrow, no worries. I'd like you hear your lean before deadline if you can post it.
I'll say now, without giving a lean, that I still have general uncertainty. If Adrien is scum that means Brick picked two scum for his gambit, and that yesterday's vote doesn't really tell much. If Jabbz is scum that means he must have either wanted to bus or hoped to switch last second to Adrien for the win and dtay foiled him. If dtay is scum the voting record is simplest, and he just switched to Brick to provide some cover once the outcome was no longer in doubt. (BTW if sunrise is scum I guess he was considering also switching last second? It's sort of hard for me to be objective about that, but I feel my earlier Brick vote than Jabbz is a less clear scum play) |
