By volume clear I'd assume 'being town by posting a lot', which isn't really a thing. Any role could just spam the thread with stuff, look at ffa the last game.

Town lean for fatfuck as well, statements like xiz's entrance are generally looked down upon here and it'd be easy for him to skate by saying that same thought. But he's disagreeing with mml there that it's a scummy post instead.

I had to look up his username before typing it out to make sure I didn't spell it wrong

I propose we give him a cute nickname. I suggest Bobo

From what I understand of the games Ive read, almost all d0 votes are pretty much based on nothing. At the end of the day, I’m the new kid on the block and I absolutely expected someone to grill me to see how I react. How I see it, there’s not a single response I could have given to the initial question that someone wouldn’t have read into. Very smart for Xiz to do me like that.

Freezin was word vomit from the start, and he hardpushed me based on nearly nothing, but again, I expected someone to, so I don’t think he’s acting overly suspicious, especially as he seems to be a vet based on the reactions to him in the signup thread, I wouldn’t expect him to make such a mistake early on.

My vote for Melon was obvs based on nothing, but chars reading of that is probably the smartest thing I’ve read in the thread this far so I don’t blame anyone for thinking this way. Early joke votes are common in past games so i didn’t think much of it but obviously again being the new guy I’m gonna be heavily scrutinised.

Way I see it, it’s way too early to know who any wolves might be. I’m upset melon didn’t respond with something more to go off. I did notice char has adopted the wise old towny role, which is always a good stance to take when someone’s going a bit word crazy, so I have slight suspicions on him, as well as Xiz, who was very quick to claim innocence, but honestly guys, way too early no?

What does Freezin being a vet have to do with anything? We're all here trying to solve a mystery here, not brag about who's got the most experience. Though I will admit having experience does help a smidgen.

If you had nothing on Raeko and you even admitted as such, were you looking for a reaction from her? If the answer to that question is "No", then what the hell were you thinking?(btw Bolth, Raeko= Mellon_Collie)

What about Haku makes him the "wise old towny" and if you feel like he's doing that if you're town as well. Why in the fuck would you be suspicious of that?

Also can you point to me where Xiz claimed innocence?

or rather saying that it's not scummy.
that's better

Really starting to dislike Bolth and I'm only on page....5 I think?

This theory flew out the window, unless...

Tbh I enjoy me some shitposting but it's gotta last up to like maybe the first half of D0. Then we gotta get our brains going and unfortunately the fun can't last for everyone

[Shadow_God_10]

Bolth looks the worst to me imo, but it's still too soon to decide who we're lynching. I want to talk with more people

Also I completely forgot Gradiant was in the game until just now

[Shadow_God_10]

I think I'm all caught up now. I'll pop in and out and such but for now I'm gonna play some games.

[MixMasterLar]

I don't know if I got scum from Bolth notes then just someone who knows hes gotta try stuff and isn't familiar with the other players.

Not saying he's clear just that I don't get the sense there is anything to see yet.

[MixMasterLar]

Gradient posting as town Gradian tends to do so far

[mellon_collie]

Bolth seemed a bit weird to me as well. I don't understand why he chose me to vote for over someone else.

I get that it was a joke but why was the joke directed toward me?

other than that it's pretty hard to tell so far. He backed up on his vote rather easily when he got called out on it, which I would normally see as weird but I could see a newer player doing that anyway

[fatfuck42]

Testing testing testing...will the post go through?

[fatfuck42]

Should be good! Dipping resumed.

Loud and clear, Captain Fatfuck!

Idk if a mod is gonna approve the post I sent earlier today so I'll just write it out again. Seems like it's even more relevant now too, lol

Basically, I think we need to be extra careful when trying to read bolth. Maybe it's because the word Red is right there in his avatar, but playing with him reminds me of playing with Red Blaster in the past. Red would post something that you'd typically read one way if it were anyone else, but coming from him you'd have no idea what his motivation was. Very unpredictable and difficult to parse.

Like with this quote here, originally I was suspicious of why bolth was describing himself as "clearly in danger" so early on. Some people hadn't posted anything of substance yet, EoD was a while off yet, etc etc. Seemed like a wolfy thing to think, but after mulling it over I think it's more so him being a new player who's eager to play and doesn't wanna get knocked out early regardless of how he's aligned.

I bring this up because, if my take is right and bolth similar to Red, I don't want a repeat of what happened in some Red games, where we wasted lynches and time and energy trying to decipher him based on criteria that we shouldn't have applied to him.

Aight aight I get you...
...any other thoughts on other players?

[fatfuck42]

I'm surprised to see people reading haku as town. First post he says we should focus on finding townies before hunting wolves, but then he goes in on the raeko/bolth interaction. His words don't align with his actions.

Then, the actual raeko/bolth read stinks. He's reading way too much into that interaction. It was such a basic early game horsin around conversation, and thinking that raeko's "</3" response is an inside joke between wolves is pretty out there. Wolves aren't gonna be winking at each other and giggling to themselves right there in the thread like that.

I know he has limited time to play so he's gonna be looking for something substantial out of the limited posts there were at the time, but...c'mon, lol. It reads to me like he's more interested in looking like he's trying to solve the game than actually working at solving it.

My intuition tells me dap is town and storn is scum. Don't have anything to back it up, just what the gut's sayin.

I'm going to assume you made an oopsie here and "dap" is DBP?
