OK, classic stream-of-consciousness reread coming up.
This
vote: Iguanaiguana
is super lazy, and RR then unvotes and does weird things. I actually think this is a null/town tell for RR. It's one of the weird things he does that I thought were missing from his game - there weren't enough of them.
Scummy start from e:
oh hey. sorry, I started playing dominion and got distracted. Its been quite the adventure this afternoon
and we have an L-2? good times.
This is Awa's first vote on RR. Has he ever changed position on RR? This worries me. Scum!Awa would mean RR is probably town here, and town!Awa tunnelling people is pretty often wrong from what I remember.
Hi everyone!
Vote: Roadrunner
Clearly trying to communicate something to his scum partner here.
There's some weird interaction between RR and II here.
Hi everyone!
Vote: Roadrunner
Clearly trying to communicate something to his scum partner here.
Is this a second RVS vote? Roadrunner starts every game this way.
So you're his scum partner! What was he trying to communicate to you?
He was saying hi. Not just to me though, to everyone.
That and II's first defensive post leave me a bit flummoxed. I mean, why does II think RR needs defending?
II's first defensive post looked absolutely fine to me at first. Somehow now that I have a townread on II I'm seeing his first post as a bit scummier. I know that makes no sense, but eh.
This:
Vote: haddock
Sure, that vote was rvs, but the method of unvote and the whole feel of the post leans scum
is a bad vote, and this:
Vote: Haddock
is sheepy. So e and WW look bad to me there.
Awa chimes in defending me for a while. He's been defending me all game. That's nice - I think Awa is actually pretty good at reading me in general. He could also be scum white knighting, I guess, but I'm not seeing that.
Bllaaahhhh this post still pisses me off.
Must resist urge to slamma jamma hamma time, but showering before posting is scummy scum scum (gotta wash the scum smell off).
This was never true.
RR is freaking out about votes for no reason which is pretty much classic RR.
RR has not freaked out about votes on him like normal this game. At least not til very recently.
Oh wait, ADK is dead, that's no relevant. Fail.
This looks like white knighting:
Small games are not good for people who are scared of voting.
Haddock is clearly town.
Wouldn't RR usually give his reasons for finding someone town? I don't expect it from Awa but I do from RR I think.
Town on Haddock by the way for doing a D1 read post which I know is outside his comfort zone
Well, a made-up reason for a town assignment.

Looks bad. I think WW would usually agree that giving out townreads a bit easily is good on D1, for PoE. Guess I'm biased here, though - chairs finding me towny always seemed reasonable to me because I'm town.
Well, I don't agree.
How are you feeling about Haddock right now?
His big post felt townie.
On what merits?
Very early big wagon; I think scum is going to want to play it more low key and hope the spotlight on him moves on. This was a big post, had some real analysis, felt honest with reads and such, shows evidence of actual deliberation. Big posts aren't necessarily townie, but if you're scum in that situation, it's harder to write so much, because you're on the verge of being lynched.. you tend to think everything you write is just going to make you look so scummy. So it's hard to make a genuine-sounding post that has content.
Backed off e and went to RR.. that could go either way I guess.
is like, the first WW post that I agree with.
Not relevant, but even after all this time I'm still mildly annoyed by this post:
Are you thinking of specific scum game(s) from Haddock?
No, but I do remember reading scum games of his where he's made similar big posts defending himself. Maybe his first game?
His first game when he white knighted faust
I did not white knight faust that game. I was misrepresented on that front from start to finish.
Vote: chairs
I like haddock's defense. I am not entirely convinced he is town, but it is enough to look elsewhere for now.
hedgetyhedge
I could jump on the chairs wagon, but I like the amHaddock wagon more.
Feelin townie on e
Scummy. ^

What do you like about the defense?
Ridiculous question ^.
Okay, maybe there wasn't one post.
But ADK doesn't usually play extra aggressive, right? I think that's more suspicious seeing how small this game is.
Vote: ADK
Ppe
Still so bad even after all this.
I'm not seeing anything to make me want to go away from Chairs.
Bad bad bad.
We don't deserve to win this game, do we?
feels like a grab for town points.
I didn't think the case on chairs was particularly good
That is supposed to say the case on rr wasn't good
Man it would be so nice if my gut was right and gkrieg/RR are the scumteam.
This is a good post:
My thoughts for Day 1:
ADK - Very likely town
Awaclus -- Well within his town meta.
Witherweaver - I've read a few of his scum games and a lot of his town games and he seems very town here.
Haddock - Seemed scummy at first, then provided some really useful info. Feeling much less scum on him now.
e - I could go either way. Leaning town though.
Gkrieg - Seemed towny at first, but hammering chairs seems really bad when momentum was shifting to Roadrunner. Gkrieg, what was up with that?
Chairs & Roadrunner seem scummiest. I'm happy we lynched one of them, but obviously would have preferred Roadrunner given that I changed my vote. Good chance Chairs is town considering how the wagons played out and the weird Gkrieg hammer.
I don't have a ton of time to do a re-read here but I will try to do one early D2 and see what I can find.
... and that's D1. I'll leave it there for now.
