i dont know if the wolf team would be that involved? especially with specifically calling out their wolf friends, in case of infiltration (though, with you being aqui and aka out of the game for the most part). Not wifom but probably a moot point too

it would help if you gave a good ol' effort post with reads and all that

i was one of several people suspicious of boomer, and IIRC i only made two posts about my suspicions

and i genuinely don't want to spend a bunch of time making a big effort post when there's plenty of activity in the thread right now, plus i've been so wrong this game that i've either gotten or contributed to two PRs claiming. i don't have the confidence in myself that i had going into this game

I'm the [b]Acquisitioner[b]

My plan pregame was to play pacifist and not take anyone over unless that would create a wining situation AKA Me vs 2 towns/wolves at night. The reason is twofold: One, my posting style is pretty distinctive and while i probably could impersonate someone i would not enjoy playing the game that way and Two, it would be a unique take on the role that nobody would expect

But once I got shot and consensus scum read my plan pretty much became: Fuck the wolves.

===========

That being said I would enjoy being around longer and being permanently blocked by the PI. I really doubt I would last that long because the wolves would kill me off since they cant win with me alive. But even that would help town because it would direct the night kill to me and create a dilemma for the wolves at night.

Either they kill me off and waste a kill

Or they let me live and im confirmed as a psuedo town who is actively working against them.

I understand if this seems a bit too weird and you just want me dead though. The main purpose of me coming out is so you know ahead of time that my large post was absolutely sincere and I think represents the best chance for Town to practically lock up the game

I'm still catching up, just to be clear, we ARE still lynching Dora
don't want to see people even begin to entertain otherwise

[TWG Del]

posting at the start/mid of phase when it doesn't matter nearly as much, then ducking for the rest is inherently wolfy

change my mind


also reminder that I'll be out for EoD

After its all said and done and if/when I die you should come back to this moment and look at how people were pushing/voting me.

lmao
you've betrayed in the past after making a similar promise so
I won't let you begin to push this

I’m confused, have you had a 100% success rate in reads before this moment? Being confident in our own reads is how we and everyone else wins this game for town, don’t use confidence as a cop out

maybe I don't know who you are, I think you did though
I won't spoil the anonymous factor so its w/e

im just a bit jealous I'm not the acq; I think I would love the role to death, and I'm pretty sure town would be super boned if I rolled it

[TWG Phil]

I'm not completely caught up, I'm on pg 77 (this is for me later)
will try to be here at eod

maybe thats my failing because im not doing the role justice but i definitely wasnt in the mood to pretend to be other people all game.

ironically this is the one game where i would be happy to have rolled VT

In about an hour-ish I have to go, but I'll see if I can sneak back on before EoD. If not, gn in advance, sparkle.

But from what I've read so far back from 76 or so, why are people even considering leaving Dora alive? Been said 8 times but just... don't do that.

I'd keep Dora's iso wide open after she's gone, and recall past spots we were considering before the whole acqui reveal happened.

Honestly I say regardless of what happens we can still use stuff from it unless blatantly proven otherwise.

Apollo hasn't really contributed much from what I can view, besides some chirping here and there on the topic. They're still a hard null for me. I may need to do an iso tonight.

Boomer is pretty obvious vigi at this point. Town.

Cherry I'm leaning even more-so Town for a lot of world building and mindmelding that I'm coming up with.

Chief I talked about earlier, link to that:

Kind of like the other side of a coin which I stated in d0, and has had me rethink here and there on certain things. Some of the things contributed I like. There are a few things I disagree with, but you haven't really thrown anything out there that has particularly jaded me.

Del pretty certain that it's Cop. Town.

Dora pretty certain that it's Acq. Anti-town.

Chrissy is a super hard null for me, a bit below Apollo. There really isn't much to go off of, and a lot of what they've put out comes across to me as not fully up-to-date on what's happening in-thread, so a lot of the content is outdated.

Fauna I'm seeing as confused town. I'd love to see where their headspace is at, but falls into a town lean.

Flurry I still think is quite town, despite dropping off of a bit from yesterday. I assume that the reason behind it because it's a bit open and shut situation for today.

Julian would be my next vote after Dora, unless a cop check goes through somehow. Biggest wolf lean.

Maple has been making mismatched plays imo. A lot of theorycrafting on night phase, which I would assume it's pretty simple. I'm not a super fan of it, it's a low town lean for me. They're putting in effort, just not the effort that super benefits town, more like pushes it along.

Mathilda is still a majority inactive read for me. Hasn't really contributed all that much.

Eugene has done an astonishing amount of background work in this game. And while some people might disagree with his view, I don't think I've ever seen a wolf dedicate this much time into a game, they're definitely inspired imo. They are firmly town to me.

Molly is a hit/miss with me. Sometimes the stuff they say resonates with me, and other times I facepalm. Along the lines of confused town in a similar manner that Maple is playing.

Phil is pretty lock town for me. Similar to Eugene, contributed a lot to both mechanic and thought on how people are playing, lots of which I tend to agree with.

Punchy I'd like to town lean, but I want to do an iso to see if I still feel that way on it.

Rolf I'm still perceiving as a scum lean, primarily of d0 interaction with Julian. If Julian flips town, then Rolf would probably look a lot better. d1 content they've put out hasn't really helped support their own case.

Tank imo is trying to contribute to town in their own way, but similar to Molly it's hit/miss. I'd be ok with town lean, but I wouldn't be surprised if that changed in the near future. Not really finding much basis in what he's had to say with his vote on Chief.
