i skimmed haku's coaching post, it's not bad if you read all the bold lines as a tl;dr plus i'm familiar with DR/DR2 so i just skipped those bits (also nice choice of music)
completely not alignment indicative though
i dunno about completely but i did get the vibe that a lot of that post was written before he knew what his role was
Conclusion: So, you've read that wall of text, you have a few Town strategies in mind, but not so much to say about wolves? Well, you're mindmelding with me if you're here. I did this to show that it's still not so obvious to backtrack wolves. If you want to find them, you'll have to also rely on reducing your lynch pool by making a town circle and asking others about second opinions etc. The rest of this post is about that.
This bit in particular felt like a sort of pivot in the post. While finding towns is helpful to scumhunting, the amount of emphasis made on making a town circle gives me weird vibes when Haku comes right out the gate with a huge amount of content. I can see Haku with a tryhard partner wanting to push getting townread quickly.
Idk why I bothered, but it's been awhile and I missed Haku so I listened to his comedy video (hilarious) and read his whole post.
I feel drained and I'm only just the first post. As for whether it was AI, I'll say no you can't really read into beginning of game Haku wallposts unless something has drastically changed since last I played.
Despite that, I'll go ahead and second Tokzic's question: How much (like what parts), if any, of that post did you write before seeing your role @Haku?

"I love Wolfe's duck avi so much. Shado's Duck Shrine is the best!!
Meta would say that this is a towny pattern in your case because of our previous game.
guy who hasn't been around in months here, can i get a tl;dr on why dbp disregarding your first post is towny

also, honestly I think finding wolves is better than finding towns --- or rather, I should say that finding towns arises as a consequence of finding wolves
theoretically "searching for a town circle" makes sense, but that behavior makes it extraordinarily difficult for other towns to determine your alignment, at least based on this behavior alone
the motivation for town is hunting wolves and this is usually easy to notice from other players. At least for me personally, there is something base, something primal about hunting for bad guys. This mindset permeates most of my non-shitposty actions in this game. This mindset is comparatively easy to locate and is a reason why I am often townread when I'm town. That mindset of "hunting wolves" is hard to replicate for most wolves, me included.
So I would posit that "hunting wolves" is a better behavior than "solving the game" on average. It makes it easier for other members of town to correctly identify you.
"Solving the game" arises as a consequence of "finding the wolves", not the other way around.
strongly agree
Making a town circle in this game is especially dangerous because this roster has several players that are capable of achieving deep wolf status. Thinking in terms of town circles runs the risk of not paying enough attention to players that need a lot of it just so you can get to a POE solution.
If you really want to think in terms of town circles, do it in more than one universe, be aware of players that are unsafe to assume are town even when they are acting really towny.
i dont get how that ruins my credibility either because like it should also be obvious that the reads list was a joke more so than anything.
Why are you making a joke read list ?

Haku, did you write any parts of that before you opened your role PM?

It's a fully prewritten post. I did read my role PM before posting, but I can't prove that I did change it or not after that point.
Therefore, why did you ask this knowing I can't really give you an interesting answer?

I don't want to be a meanie, but this is content void of game progression which means it's not a response to any game content. It's literally an entrance post.
You're assuming I have a goal of early town read, but reality is that this is usually the other way around. I have trouble not getting town read in general.
How do you even meta read me? I already have a game progression about why town circle is valuable this game.
If you disagree and think that's wolfy, you'll have to explain to me why that's the case because I seriously believe this is how town should be playing optimally speaking.

My guess at this point is that there aren't actually any wolves, and all the humans are just going to kill each other until only a few are left. Then the remaining survivors will realize they are the real monsters.
