twg xcv: nothing special

Also, speaking of content, who hasn't posted yet since the beginning of the phase? Can't really make a good list since I'm on my phone, but those people should probably say something more before a few people start dominating the conversation.

Brainys tone is immensely different from last game

[mikey]

Msf hasn't posted any more even though he's been present in discord, which I think is odd

Tras is in the same boat but is forgiven because timezones

Why is Davy a mod, and only Davy?

Why is Davy a mod, and only Davy?

I still see all the previous mods there in addition to davy...

I'm not sure if I posted since the day phase started. To be honest, I really don't know what to say. This is my first TWG game. I am not learn ed yet.

As long as you know the basic rules, just try to find wolves

I'm here.

I'm no longer inclined to see any wolfiness in E. Gadd's initial post about inactivity, mainly because of our conversation in the Discord server, and particularly this bit here:

[4:14 PM] mastersuperfan: yet I'm also not suspicious of BDS in the slightest
[4:15 PM] mastersuperfan: comparing the way you and he worded your posts, I'm far more inclined to believe you're a wolf than BDS
[4:16 PM] E. Gadd Industries: And why is that? I'm just curious, because there are all these strategies that I'm trying to understand, but (as we've seen in all games I've played) they go over my head

It comes across as genuine curiosity to me, as well as a desire to improve, while I would expect that a wolf would react more defensively in direct opposition to the wolf reads. (At the same time, some of his other comments are a little harder to decipher, so I'll probably go back and look at those more closely and my view might change a bit, but so far I definitely wouldn't be in favor of an E. Gadd lynch.) This isn't enough for me to read him strongly as town, but I think that if we're to begin looking at people's comments for suspicious points, E. Gadd wouldn't be the place to start.

AUGHHH I HAD THIS WHOLE POST TYPED OUT AND THE DATA CUT OUT ((((((((
#perksoflivinginruralky

To paraphrase, I read him as human. His first post tries to make a reference to the human PM, which could either suggest that he's a wolf trying to hint at his humanity, or the same with a human. There's also his second post, in which he voices his hesitancy to lynch someone just because of the lack of special roles. Which honestly, I can understand that; the chance to mislynch is rather large here. I read him as human for now

Another example of the whole "trying to improve as a good human player." Also, in hindsight I'll admit that my first post referencing the role PM may have seemed slightly wolfy, since humans shouldn't feel much of a need to assert their humanity like that. Honest mistake on my part while trying to make a joke

I think how e gadd has reacted to the suspicion so far is well within the realms of wolf e gadd.  If phase was ending in 20 minutes who else would you vote for?  Who, so far do you think is off the lynch pile? (Or lunch pile if that's your thing)

[mastersuperfan]

If phase was ending in 20 minutes who else would you vote for?

Now that you mention this, I can understand your suspicion of E. Gadd, since there are a lot of people so far who I have a hard time seeing as a wolf--but that's mostly because they haven't been speaking much and there's not much to read off of them, while with as much E. Gadd has posted there's inevitably going to be something incriminating to pull out in his posts, regardless of his alignment. If the phase was ending in 20 minutes then yes, I might consider E. Gadd.

<Noc's spiel about scum reading me>
Huh. I suppose that is a good strategy to have for a wolf... eh.

Especially concerning this post, I'm wondering if I should be expecting him to react more defensively rather than less if he was a human. I can see a bit of wolfiness from this post because he doesn't protest about your read at this point.

As far as people who are off my lynch pile, Brainy's probably the biggest one so far because he's actually contributing this time--unlike last time, which is what got him lynched. (Although who knows, maybe he just learned from last time, but I'd like to think that this read is reliable.) I'd like to say that you're off my lynch pile, Noc, with the leader-like role that you're playing so far... but you do this every game, don't you? Finally, while not completely off my lynch pile since he hasn't spoke a ton, I've read BDS as human because of his relatively positive/enthusiastic attitude so far:

but I'll definitely try to post all I can!

I understand the need for a (hopefully good!) lynch

and his posts look like they're helping the human side, especially trying to prevent us from making any mistakes and letting the wolves take advantage of them (i.e. mislynching or not having enough posts to read certain players). I was considering the possibility that his increased positivity, which I don't think I noticed last game, was indicative of a different alignment, but I figure that Noc's immediate claim as the Host ticked him off from the very start, while nothing of the sort has happened in this game. So I'll still say that it's indicative of him being human.

I don't get a real "burning" suspicion of E. Gadd (then again, I haven't really read the chat, if that would shed more light on the issue; tl;dr, somebody?... possibly other than Noc?), so right now E. Gadd would be more of a neutral for me. I don't think I have anybody I'd feel strongly about lynching, though for lynching, I wouldn't be opposed to lynching you if we don't have a better target (for the "usual" reasons; though it's not the best scenario, believe it or not ), or possibly one of the inactives (which would currently only be Trasdegi, I think? Again, not exactly the optimal lynch, though it's something, I guess?).

only person off the lynch pile for me is davy
go hard or go home

[Trasdegi]

Isn't thc not really active too?

[BlackDragonSlayer]

Isn't thc not really active too?

Well, this is your first real serious post of the game. THC at least has a few more.

[Trasdegi]

The only posts he made are about sodas and I don't think it's  serious post
