didn't mean to skip rolf's vote, if I did

your pressure is noted and subsequently ignored.

Zucker.

once again, basing a "strong town lean" off of me liking the character's design.

my reaction to these votes is about what it should be: minimal at best

[TWG Agent S]

My headspace right now is that Del, Punchy, Phil, Flurry, Fauna, and Eugene as town.

town leans are Chief, Cherry, Tank, and Dora.

Nulls are Apollo, Boomer, Molly, Maple (although slightly between null & town lean for me), and Chrissy.

wolf lean Mathilda pending on how the phase plays out (mostly inactive read based on previous day), Rolf for Julian interactions prior to eod.

Pretty sure I know who Julian is, and they were playing d0 like wolf without day chat.

Ideal world would be Julian is a wolf, and Rolf is assisting how they can, and the third wolf is somewhere between town leans and downwards. Although, nothing is ever white & black, it's always grey.

lul this is kinda sad that this is your only reason when it could actually just be an honest mistake.

I've played a lot of games
I've seen under 10 slips actually happen
I've seen definitely over 1,000 accusations of slips

if there's one thing I could change about mafia, its making people stop fucking looking for this shit

even if Flurry is a wolf
a) they lynched a partner yday, so let them be for now
b) they're not a wolf because of the shit you said

maybe my read on you is a bit lazy, but you were lazy, and looking to push someone who is the reason why you're alive is a terrible look for you, and your reason to just ignore that and look past it is genuinely awful

[TWG Boomer]

agent s, do you think julian makes that much noise on d0 and focusing a lot of attention throughout the entire phase if they're wolf? i can't really see that being a case, especially in a game this big where it's easy to just fade away into the crowd.

I said I'm not just letting it slide like everyone else is, go check out last game.

maybe not the way you're saying it, but when you quoted what Fauna said the first time, I thought it was wolfy

yeah, that is one of the 10 that I saw
but they basically never happen, and there's a big difference between that one and this one imo, even without knowing flurry's alignment

flurry's one can be a genuine mistake, even if flurry is a wolf
psychoangel's could never be anything other than wolf tmi

I know I didn't have a stellar performance in terms of being sharp, but I like to believe I wouldn't be braindead enough to tell the entire thread I roleblocked the Cop as a wolf.

I pointed out something that could be something, are you guys serious right now? Okay fine, I won't point out shit anymore

[TWG Eugene]

At work right now, so my attention will be divided.

Shit happens and I have every reason to be sus of it.

Yes, I do. It's a meta read based on previous game experience. I didn't think much of it at first because for the first half of d0, the majority of it was centered on Molly, and it was a well thought-out argument, which I commented on. It wasn't until the switch-over to Punchy that set off some alarms for me.

[TWG Boomer]

and we've reached the point of the game where everyone's trying to figure out who everyone else is.
it's capitalism v2

I know it's ot directed at me but this definitely happens, especially in anon games where people can switch their style up. I feel like wolves hide less in anon games more often than not

[TWG Eugene]

I did an ISO of Chief on my way to work, and he seemed incredibly...weird...But not in the wolfy sense... Like he just seemed very negative

[TWG Flurry]

I'm just concluding that activity makes players harder to imitate and it's mostly Anti-Acquisitioner.
It's not necessarily towny or wolfy because the 2 factions share the same goal. (to not be acquired)
So, I'd probably want to look at Julian from a different perspective like what Agent S is doing.

Yeah, I got the same vibe and wasn't sure what to make out of it.

after capitalism, maybe my view is skewed, but i don't know if that's necessarily the case. i might have to go back and look up other ffr anon games (smash bros, villains, united nations, danganronpa, any others i may have missed) to verify that, but having read capitalism before, and seeing every wolf being a low-poster or someone trying to hide and be extremely low-key, i don't see someone being loud for as long as julian was being a wolf. if they were loud early-mid phase before petering off near the end and blending, sure. but to be that much of a focal point early on and to maintain it for most of the phase is quite ballsy, imo

uh-huh. I think at least half of people playing have figured out that much, with the other half still indecisive on whether or not that constitutes 'wolfing'. iirc there was even a mini-chief-wagon because of it.

it's ballsy sure but given that people are going to look towards low posters for the wolves it is not out of the question to be loud and noticeable for the sake of throwing people off the scent what what

like if they actually are a wolf then their tactic has worked on you completely
