It literally doesn't matter what names he uses at this

The hot take could be Xel/Gradiant/Haku at this point

I want to know what head space produces these reads and thoughts

Or are they wolves if not masons?

it did come up rather prominently in the game but you weren't in the game though, trevor

feel like it would be something you remember more if you were a party to it rather than like, expecting its existence

The initial point was that wolf daychat was common though. So I went back to try and prove that wrong, but considering the stagnation of activity in terms of TWG games recently, only really succeeded in proving his point.
I mean, this could all have been resolved if we ask the host for clarification, but I felt that was too angleshooty.

Basically Ben has a lovely habit of starting games off strong before dissolving into nothingness in terms of his posting and content. Usually included are long stretches of no appearances.

I feel like he does this as both alignments, but hear me out:

If he's on a wolfteam that actually is making the point of not killing IC then I feel like his partner(s) would dog him to post more

Will be back for EoD

it was kinda fun for a day.

yup

i remember it being a little weird too because it seemed like you were repping a super obvious peek on me before i even said anything, but i was the one who died

but yes we did have keywords and our reads weren't too bad either

Did you not see my list of reads near the beginning of the day?
Unless you specifically mean now, where I want to town lean them, but nothing's really.. happening?
At least vote-wise.

Either way, I don't think they're w/t.

It's actually really funny that you place so much emphasis on this.

If you have time before you peace it, can you provide a quick alignment placement post?

Where the hell is Ben...
Where the hell is Raeko...

[TWGma]

Swear to god if this is another AN'16-esque game where the wolves are the 3 silent ones while town implodes...

[inDheart]

i thought ben looked kinda weird early for spamming 5 posts and leaving but then had one single chuckle at his posts to gradiant afterward

mellon's "let's spend a bunch of time arguing back and forth" to gradiant is a touch odd because he doesn't seem to respond in kind, or however you would say that

idk i reread the sunfan and wv interaction and still think it's kinda weird but maybe it's wv making it weird

this t-force post was weird too because i thought fg's post was obvious jokes but you correct her anyway

in retrospect sunfan probably had the right blind read here although i know he flips it later

ok here's a thing: blind's 128 might spew him not-a-role so wolves wouldn't push him? and 131 from roundbox seems pointless to announce in that context

feel like several of mml's points in 142 would look good for wv under his reading but disagree with the conclusion (that he's awk). 152 ("why ben?") seems like a good ask though even though he's asking it of the IC because it might validate his feelings on ben being weird

then ben/rbx talk about the joke-not-joke of talking about the setup but not opening it to discussion, where mml has a nice post in 173 and i don't like ben's side

like wabby's 191 but in 197 he seems to be treating ben all weird and voting t-force instead for ???

mentioned t-force 217 before; appealing to postcount isn't really where you want to go here imo. fg's callout on it was better

looks like mml's thing on wv just turns out to be "he's different", meh, uses the rest of the post to seize on the thing where sunfan flips his wabby read and votes him which is whatever

-----------------

man i finished page 3 and it's like i'm still in the same place from it. tried to see some new things in the posts though

there's a question in there for sunfan

[mellon_collie]

hi it's me Raeko I have arrived on the scene

[reuben_tate]

I'm here. Catching up on some thread now, will try to keep up on recent posts in the meantime if anyone wants to talk.

hi do something plz and thank yous

[reuben_tate]

Just gonna respond to things as I see them in the thread. Don't feel in the mood to make a mega-post or anything. Might be responding to outdated info but whatever.

One thing that gets me tho that I wanna ask



You make a note here that is in past tense and honestly seems out of place to keep. Did you add that second line when posting these notes for our benefit? If so, why did you chose only that one to expand?

Because I did see the results of the nightkill before heading to bed that night and had some time to think of different possibilities. At the time of reading your post, I had not yet seriously considered the possibility of a vigi so I put that note so I could return back and try to think about it some more later. There are a few other "note expansions" as well in there...unless I'm misinterpreting what you mean by expanding on a note?

This sounds weird...as if it's assumed that the shot "went" somewhere to begin with.

My reads are garbage though and I need to reset them and go over yesterday's posts again.

Although I'm still not convinced...I'm willing to entertain the idea that the vigi (star-cross) was responsible for the first night kill (FG). Now that we have names attached to these roles...I'd be interested in seeing if there is possibly anything in star-cross's or fg's posts to help support this idea.

Still reading the thread...is this demand based on some context I should be able to see when I'm caught up? Or did you just randomly pick inD for me to do an iso on?

[inDheart]

wabby 260 yeah but if the idea is to pressure people to make them talk, and pressure already exists on force, why not go elsewhere? you mention as much in your next post, but then just unvote instead

mml 278 is a patently ridiculous post and read lol

wabby's 292 vote is for an okaaay reason but the timing and the thing he's responding to makes it look like he noticed he's not voting anyone and therefore should just vote someone
we wondered about the word "slip" for a while but the leftover issue i still have is what wab said doesn't really respond to mml's point (which i know what he means because he posts as much in 310)

mellon's 294 better than 293 tbh, don't really see the same issues with fg's progression because the votes were for different reasons

roundbox also against mml's fg case which is something i forgot, seems good

327 lolme

ben 351 lol giving wnb a pass and then not voting to save him or anything

sunfan 361 i don't really know what prompted this post and wasn't sure what to do with it, what did you mean by making this?

sunfan/roundbox passing effen theorem, mml also decent i guess, ben failing it with the no vote and getting stuck on small stuff

[inDheart]

ok that's day 0

i'm going out soon? ish? but gonna try to read more before i go
