    I think I'll focus on Starbucks' case on Visa as I do this, since I've expressed disagreement but never elaborated.

    Starbucks posted that a ping-out post from Visa and a post saying that speculating on the number of wolves was not a dumbtell attempt, as well as some others, belied Visa's supposed inexperience with TWG. (Inexperience may not be the correct word to use.) They cited posts from Visa asking about the mechanics of the game and how many wolves there were.

    It's highly connected to who I believe Visa is (and yes, impersonation can happen), but those questions about the game fit them. For the rest, Visa has expressed displeasure at the pace of the game even as people sit in thread and could be contributing. That does not raise an issue for me.

    And as said, I believe their reads list is an opportunity to at least generate interactions. Asking about Visa's reads would be more useful than wolf reading them for the existence of the list right now.

      There are 19 other people in the game than myself. I'm trying to force myself not to have a huge pile of null reads.

      I encourage you to point out what looks like distancing or pocketing to you.

        It's wolf behavior to have a full reads list like that on the first day.

            i disagree its not something that lends toward a particular alignment inherently tho intent behind reads list could be read wolfy/towny

              QUOTE=j-rodd123;4554394]glad everyone had fun, gj wolves!

              just a note to town, next time please lynch someone who makes a post like this:


              QUOTE=MixMasterLar;4548932]Ok so, like I said in pregame I'm gonna be tied up at parts of the week. Not only do I have Tai Chi today since it's Thursday but my brother is in town and I don't know if I'll be posting alot. The weekend will be better as I work and have nothing better to do most of the shift.

              I'll leave a reads list to make up for it tho.

              1) Hakulyte
              Liked his entrance and at first was willing to give him a pass, but lately he seems way too overly defensive/desperate in his post. See above responses to him. Anyway he gets to stay on the table.

              3) inDheart
              InD has almost as many post as I do and the only thing I can recall that he said was I think he was the one who pointed out that I was giving Haku a pass too early (which was correct). He doesn't stick out in my mind, and gets a null

              5) Cold Kitten
              CK has 4 post as of this writing. We're near 30 hour in and I'm not even sure how many are "contentful" enough to count towards minium. I have a thing against players who go UTR but in all fairness he probably needs to be placed at Null

              6) XelNya
              Looking past the troll votes and him tryharding, that handwaving he did with Haku was shit, was explained like shit and was only defended so-so. Not impressed. Xel's another player who seems to want to put more effort when wolf and I'm starting to see it already. I expected more Wendy's memes but got.....whatever that was he gave (psssssh the answer is shit)
              So yeah, Throw a wolflearn on him

              7) roundbox
              Roundbox is only reacting to things, but he always does this d0. Other then that push on Xel he did the last Fire Emblem game I can't think of a game where he generated content this early on his own. (Fighting me our last game over this topic doesn't count)
              . He has 5 post of this writing, and really needs to get back in here. I'll throw him in null....he's easier to read D2 thankfully.

              8) Xiz
              I remember not liking Xiz's entrance that much, there was alot of actual posting which I don't associate with him this early. I don't recall that he said anything out of place though. He then dropped off the map and that's kind of bad....
              We'll give him a faint scum lean for now

              9) Tokzic
              Standard Tokzic entrance with standard Tokzic involvement. I actually hate trying to read him because he seems to do this as both alignment. Null


              10) tiloco217
              Tiloco seemed willing to try and make an actual contentful post while he was around but otherwise doesn't stick out to me. I don't know this player and unless he does something extremely stupid or anti-town I can give him a day past. Null

              11) DarkManticoreX2
              Called Haku out but hasn't done much anything else. Only has 11 post. He's a legend in these parts and is suppose to be a good player, so add that with my UTR bias and it makes me not care for him this game. A skeptical yellow hue for now---I'd put him at null but I got this feeling he's capable of posting more and just isn't. Call it a gutread if you will.

              12) blindreper1179
              Other then jumping on me early on I don't really know what else of note Blind has done. I'll probably ISO him since he as a high postcount and still doesn't stick out to me later. Seemed pretty eager to start the ball rolling at the start but has since dropped dominate thread presence.

              I'll be fair and put him at null.

              13) mellonxcollie
              Raeko has 5 post as of this writing and I swear like 3 of them are complaining that people need to produce more content. While this is standard Raeko fair for both alignments, it doesn't make it any less bad. Will probably scumread me again for calling her out.
              ....n all honesty, she's null though. Raeko's cool as a person but as a player I wish she'd step her game up some.


              14) DaBackPack
              Had a good entrance that looked like the Detective BackPack we all love, but dropped off fairly quickly. He has 16 post as of this writing, which if you consider that most if not all of those are one liners with thoughts split between them it doesn't provide alot of content. What he did say was aggressive, but he just kind of stops.
              DaBackPack has this habit of losing interest in a game as wolf, so if he fails to come back that's a bad sign. It's still a little early to say that's happening, but I'll be keeping an eye out for his return. Null for the moment, ball's in his court.

              15) LightKnight924
              Has 2 posts and I couldnt tell you what they where. As aggravating as that is,
              he's still justNull.

              16) Soundwave-
              The only thing of note is he defended Haku acting like he knew Haku well enough to claim what was normal for him. While Xel has sort of soft defended him and Haku provided examples of games they've played, I don't think Soundwave as gotten around to addressing it himself.
              He has 7 posts as of this writing, it's a little unfair to slant him to either side as of now so Null

              17) FreezinIce
              Freezin is confident there isnt a reviver, and thanks I'm a little too aggressive. Past that, his 13 posts are whitenoise. That seems about right for d0 Freezin to be honest.
              Maybe a slightly green tint? call it a gutread. Probably deserves null but fuck it.[/QUOTE]



              I mean really, read this fucking post and say how this is ever a villager, the post was so awkward and only like the 2nd page of posts i read in this game but i had to message sunfan and say ya mml lock wolf right? bla bla bla posts from a sideline player but still it was so frustrating to not see this post get attacked more -.-[/QUOTE]

                  This is actually just flat wrong. Reads on the first day might not be strongly reasoned, but you can at least place the players.

                  If that's what you got burned by in a recent game, I think you should remove that from your "wolf behavior" checklist, given that I bet you added it just because that happened once.

                      Re: TWG CLXVIII: Capitalism [Game Thread]

                      I would be more alarmed at the reads list based on the amount of time from game start to the posting. We're on the last day of the phase, so I don't think it's necessarily wolfy. A wolf in the previous game rushed out their reads list very quickly to project town. These lists do not look rushed. Visa's might not have a lot of evidence attached to it, but it's not like rushed ones I've seen before. Apple's is fine, I'm not sure why people are so up in arms about it.

                      Facebook still not looking too hot.

                      IBM, worry less about gimmicks and more about game solving. It's the last day of the phase.

                      I'm gonna reread some of the other players and see what's up.

                        Looks like we mindmelded here on the whole previous game reads list. The timing is very different on them though. Do keep that in mind.

                          Double-checked to see the exact timing. It was about 38 hours into the phase when that reads list was posted.
                          Do you understand my perspective at least, GE?
