The mods clarified that they randomized *every* role, so this whole point is moot.

I asked this because I found aaronk's claim that "he would never do this as Jabba wolf" to not make any sense if he understood how the characters were assigned, since in that case he would absolutely do it as a wolf or a villager.

His reply suggests he was not aware that all the characters are completely removed from good/evil probability.

Maybe I don't directly say so in the stuff about you but I do say exactly that in my post - notably about biggerboat. I feel like it's more and more relevant the more experienced a player is.

Really zero thoughts otherwise?

it applies to dustin/me as well imo. clearing dustin for posting differently and calling me wolfy for posting similarly is just wrong. i'd say that if the roles were reversed too, calling me a villager just because i'm posting similarly to a previous game where i was a villager would be a bad call to make

that said, i strongly disagree w/ your kukra read. his posts/tone are completely different this game. i think he's a villager, for reasons beyond just differences in posting

luckbox is reading cool and comfortable. I'm leaning villagery for now.
Aao's posting feels better to me this rand than last, but he was a villager last time.. Still leaning V

Actually, this whole page (500-558) feels villagery.

The last post I read that didn't feel good was this entry:

catching up:
i liked Tokyo's burst of posting and I think he made some good points.. i no longer have him as a top wolf

JDalla made a few posts during the same time but they did not significantly change my opinion on him

i liked Birdman's recent post about Shorty's use of 'obvious' and that post pinged me as well

BIGGERBOAT

Original/lockgame few posts, all low effort one liners with no reads on anyone. Post freq/effort in this game appear to be very similar to the original game. Shows up, makes a few posts with no reads and is gone. As wolf in lockgame he enters with a ‘sup’ and here a ’sup redux’. I think frequency and extreme lack of effort similarities make me lean wolf. I believe he's pretty experienced so this could just be his consistent game style. Thoughts?

RIVERFISH

Original wolf game: comes out guns blazing with a mets vote (isn’t in the game). Crafts a post about luckbox being a wolf (both are). Makes multiple off topic posts about mets, who isn’t in the game. Responds to lockbox’s snap counter vote then disappears for 5 hours til lock.

In this game similarly snap comes out blasting with a wolf read and vote, referencing a couple of posts. The initial luckbox push in lockgame and initial push here strike me as similar.

RF does however go on to actually question/respond to a few posts from several players which feel much more fact finding than his clear manufactured luckbox push+disappearance in the wolf locked game. Obviously his lock game disappearance could be coincidental but regardless I like the effort I’m seeing this game. I lean villager

LUCKBOX

As noted before, snap claims seer as a wolf in lockgame, snap claims wolf in this game (also snap claims wolf as a SK in the previous game he sent a link in). In wolf lockgame snap votes/pushes three of his wolf bros (dmk, riverfish and YKW). Posts a ton

In current game also posts a ton, though actually has some villager reads rather than just pushing his wolfbros for wolfiness. His stated wolf reads in current game also feel softer/less sure than his immediate harder “reads” of his wolf bros as a wolf in original lockgame. The difference makes my impression lean villager.

KUKRAPROUT

In wolf lockgame makes lots of low effort meta posts that don’t have much to do with the game he was in. Quickly made a riverfish vote (wolfbro) with no reasoning and then half hour later switches off to a “serious” vote on sixfour (a villager) - also with no reasoning.

In current game purposefully revotes sixfour to “balance his range.” Later changes his vote to aao, again without any reasoning like he did in the lockgame. Later backtracks upon a reread and unvotes. Makes several more meta posts like he did in lockgame. Really appears to make no reads that I can find while making a decent amount of non-curious posts. Seems consistent with his original wolf game and the consistent lack of real hunting in this one makes me lean wolfy.

DMK

In lockgame as a wolf made ~two dozen low effort one liner posts. Talks to his wolfbros some, makes an unexplained vote on a villager, changes it to another villager without reasoning, changes it to a third villager without reasoning. Talks about some meta/mechanic stuff. Makes basically nothing in the way of reads.

In current game similarly makes one liner low effort posts, similarly votes for people without explanation. Claims to be all caught up but notably claims he doesn’t want to comment on anything at this point. I lean wolf.

YOUKNOWWHO

Opens original lockgame as a wolf claiming to not really remember how to play and that he’ll avoid spewing the thread. Claims he’s excited. Talks about game mechanics and explains why he might not be around much. Never makes a single read or vote that I can find after his original post.

In current game similarly opens explaining how he might not be around much, but now due to lack of excitement as he’s no longer a wolf rather than life circumstances. This is his only post all day.

Given the similar openings and extreme lack of volume, I lean wolf

As such

Wolf
Biggerboat
Kukraprout
DMK
Youknowwho

Villager
Riverfish
Luckbox
Like the effort here. Still neutral on kukra.

bigger starting to earn some attention with dmk, as they both seem to be lowey supporting suspicion of me, with "hot garbage list, still hot garbage reads" etc. This is a pretty safe criticism, as a villager on d0 my list is going to pretty much turn up looking like hot garbage. And a wolf would KNOW it was hot garbage, while villagers would have to pause and try to analyze the reasoning behind it.

Also, the fact that I had 3 votes (the 2nd most) on me from other players at the time, make this gently, low content nudging to make me look bad is worth flagging.

(disclaimer: could be overly paranoid / self centered with this theory)

I feel like that's fair. I actually didn't know luckbox = dustin at start of the game. I'm not clearing him but my impression is that the difference is villagery. Though I did skim the recent titan game thread before this game started where he won as a wolf - it wasn't obvious to me.

WRT to you I don't recall playing with you so whether warranted or not I'm inclined to give less weight to the idea that your consistency between your previous wolf game one day ago and this game is just a matter of play style.

I don't think you're a lock or anything, we'll have to see how things progress.

What do you think about kukra's game history? I definitely don't see the changes that you say you're seeing but maybe that'll change after a closer look today

i don't remember ever playing w/ kukra. but in the lockgame his tone felt way more cautious. it's a pretty common wolf thing to do. don't rock the boat, put enough soft feelers out to be showing effort. if you're wrong, you don't look SUPER wrong because it was a soft read. if you're right, you get to say "thats what i thought!". and you can push wolves without really pushing wolves

villagers are way more likely to have more vocal/strong reads and stir up **** because they have 0 other knowledge and that's how they need to get their reads

good wolves will do that too though. no offense to kukra, but i don't think that's an adjustment he'd make in the 2-3 hours between games if he is a wolf again

and fwiw, i think dustin and i are probably 2 of the hardest players in this game to read correctly d1. obviously low-volume posters are impossible to read, but of people that are actually going to be active, i'll stand by that

unlike the 06 game, i'm getting a decent number of villager vibes from people and not a ton of wolf vibes. like i'm calling out crackedquads/jdalla's lists as being bad, but i don't necessarily think they're wolves. i just don't like their lists.

i also was terribad in the 06 game, so take that w/ a grain of salt

anyone complaining about the time i'm putting into this game should know that i actually run a company now. i feel traz's pain when he says anyone trying to get a read on him for lower participation in early stages can f*ck off (vowel excluded in honor of dustin)

my villager reads are "obvious" because other people have called them villagers too; my wolf reads are also obvious because they're the only reads and votes i've given in this game

i'm not putting in a lot of time on d1 because a) i don't have it, b) we have zero information, c) i don't usually consider myself a threat to be lynched

but if you feel like completely wasting your time, feel free to vote me

Re-read jonnyd. His list is bad. Three people getting a little heat for wolves and three people who haven't done much. If Mrs.AK was in the game and she was a villager and I was a wolf, I would call her a villager but I digress.

This post is wolfy but when questioned he explains it's based on tone and he'll find some specific posts. If he stopped there, I would say he was very wolfy but he gets village points for actually finding some posts to support his case.

All told, slight village lean.
