Thing about Minecraftgirlftw is you can probably count on her to never be an elaborate fake.

How the do you slip as town. HOW THE DOYOUSLIP AS TOWN.

so although she just slipped I'm pretty sure she is town.

God are your reads really so simplistic as "he suggested we lynch ThirdAug for no good reason so he's not playing to town win con so he's mafia" or is there something else in the mix?

You are wrong. Arcbell is not playing towards the village win condition.

Well that's not the type of post I was waiting on for minecraftgirlftw to confirm her alignment but that one does the job about halfway. Mine's probably town for that "(dont REALLY listen to my reads tho)" as if feeling impending guilt about potentially being wrong or something.


my reads are like a coinflip they could be all right or all wrong so i recommend you dont trust them

MCFangirl is probably mafia, but Dorzel is definitely mafia. His posts are all very small with nothing much in them but he's consistently posted them since the start, so he's reading without committing to anything. Surely a town would have something useful to post by now.


well all i can say about this is that im not that good at reading and dont have any reads yet well at least im trying dorzel and arcbell are probs town (dont REALLY listen to my reads tho)

Actually not a bad idea for if you're confirmed or know you're being lynched as maf.

Arcbell if you're mafia you should sacrifice yourself for your team by mod negging everything to make it more difficult to read the game


That's actually a hilarious idea. U earned some cred with me today for this spark of ingenuity yoyoman.

Dorzel is completely null I get the sense he'd do exactly what he's doing as town or mafia.

Shrub would certainly follow this format as town or mafia, he likes to try to lead. I dunno if his reads would be this bad normally or not but until further notice I'm assuming yes.

ThirdAug is completely null and salty, as I expected him to be. I'm keeping my vote on him until I get a real scumread.

Sonia I can't get a read on.

lonerism doesn't have enough content.

yoyo200900 is leaning town for his eye-squinting efforts.

Ian is still obvious town.

ngl I haven't read any of iamsohappy's content for reads yet

Ya see I'm not townreading minecraftgirl (yet) but if she's town she's gonna townslip at some point so just leave her around until day ~3 at minimum.

Like in your mind does it really work like: not having useful content so far = mafia .. if so I don't know where you got that idea. If not, did you decide he's mafia bc u sense it then just make up a reason to justify it?


No

If someone posts one line every 5 minutes for 1 hour but still doesn't have anything useful to post it's different to someone posting 12 posts in 12 minutes because the second person isn't trying as hard as the first.

Alright lads.

I'm getting Minecraft's awful town vibes. Looking at the goal behind her posts she is trying her best to meet towns win condition - i understand if you fos her as she is legitimately scumtelling, this is just a meta read based on how awful her townplay normally is and looking at the intent behind her posts.

Outside of that, I fos imsohappy, ThirdAug and Arcbell.

towntelling time you three.

Yoyo has also managed to scumtell to me in his few lines. We will see how he plays after.


Shrub manages to misread me again! Congratulations shrub!

Also, Arcbell's lines lead me to think that he is town more than scum, so that's something else you've got

ThirdAug is probably a slight tr for me so basically your three scumreads are possibly 3 town.

Maybe I'm wrong in this but Shrub usually manages to read me right as town so I feel like he may be scum in this regard.

Is this a vote on Arcbell? Why would you vote Arcbell here? Are you actually committing to this?
Arcbell

What makes you think he'd have something useful to say "by now"? Are you saying everyone else in the game has had useful content up to this point? That and the general wording of the line... "surely a town" .. just rubs me funny.
