Where are theorel and sparky?
I saw theorel lurking the thread earlier.
Yes, I've been trying to keep up. Alright, stream-of-consciousness incoming.
I feel a little lost for the moment....let's see:
Insomniac doesn't seem different at all to me. I think he reads town for that reason, not because he's been nicer or anything (as at least Frisk has suggested). To clarify (although I said differently day1) I don't actually think Insomniac is snarky, he's just aggressively defensive. He seems to always be ready to accuse anyone who accuses him. His arguments are bad, or made up, but the way they come so readily really makes him seem scummy (to me), like he's a constant source of OMGUS. When no one suspects him, he seems much better at really considering various options and making good analysis. I hope he can maintain that if he comes under real suspicion.
In this game, I think his responses to suspicion have been as aggressive as ever, but he's not taking major suspicion. Probably because he didn't lynch pps. As long as I think O is scum, I don't see it as necessary that any of the non-pps voters are scum. IF O is actually somehow town, then it's possible that sparky and Insomniac are both town, but I can see them being scum in that case. Actually, I would probably be suspicious of Insomniac who may have hoped to get town-cred and throw major suspicion on O's wagon if he flipped town, and if he believed O's wagon would go through without support. I feel like it's a better explanation than the mysterious town-read, but whatever, I feel like I'm playing a different game than everyone else, which is normally how I feel.
Anyways, those are my random thoughts of the moment.
Let's see, the pps wagon was composed of:
Robz, joth, Frisk, Cuzz, Grujah, cayvie, and O.
Cuzz is doc (seems reasonable enough)
cayvie's dead.
I think there is at least one scum among O, Insomniac, and sparky (with O being the major top-choice for me there)
Then there should be 2 scum among: Robz, joth, Grujah, and Frisk. (Assuming Cuzz is in fact doc, we're guaranteed 3 mafia. So, I'm supposing there is only one scum among O, Insom and sparky)
Well, there are only so many combos there.
Robz seems town, because he seems to be playing a generally pro-town game. He's also much more driving discussion (as compared to scum-Robz in MVIII, could be to throw us off, could be because he's town)
joth seems town because he's being a little jumpy with his vote, which is how town-joth usually plays (at least MII and MIV)
Have we ever seen mafia-joth? I know he was SK in III, but I didn't really follow that game well enough at the beginning.
Grujah-I excused his lurking day1 given his real-life predicament. He's posted more today, some of substance. He was scum in another unmentionable game, which may have impacted his play. Certainly more suspicious to me than either of the previous two. He's the current lynch target. I'd be willing to hammer him, but only after everyone's said their peace.
Frisk-I dunno, he seems less abrasive to me this game. More like SK-Frisk of MIV than the mafia Frisk's of VI and VIII. Although he seems less pro-town than he seemed to me in IV. But, if he's not scum then a previous supposition is incorrect.
So, given that, I'm somewhat more suspicious of joth, because I'm not convinced that it's "town-joth" and not just joth's style. OTOH, that would pretty probably mean that O is not scum (although it could be a bus). So, that should bring some focus back to Insom/sparky. Anyways, this problem-space is too large to exhaust...and I'm not sure how beneficial it would be.
PPE: and Grujah has also claimed doctor, eh? Hmm...I think there's more to say on that.
