Here are my first reads (oh my gosh I hate formatting and typing lists like this on my iPad so ****ing much - just getting the playerlist copy+pasted then segmented caused so much annoyance I've been swearing in my head the entire time I've been drafting this. I cannot face inserting quotes at this time but am happy to do so in follow up posts if this is desired by others) :
Playerlist
1) Heyden
Comments have been inconsistent and at times hard to make sense of, as others have pointed out quite a bit already. I haven't noticed anything *not* already discussed, though I am still very curious about the "cbf" line in the RQS and what this was supposed to convey (I don't believe this was explained, please correct me if I'm wrong).
2) Endless (AKA Abe)
Comments have been detailed and largely helpful - especially regarding gameplay, strategy, and terminology used. I gather this would be the case even if they were mafia/cult which makes a lot of sense to me, but obviously makes determining which team they're on difficult. I have seen nothing to indicate they're cult at this time.
Side note : I'm going to stick with "they/them" pronouns on Endless and anyone else that didn't specify which pronouns they prefer in their RQS or elsewhere in the thread, unless/until a preference is indicated.
3) Mogyay (AKA Mog)
Comments have been productive and questions asked of players have been spot-on, catching many of the things that I was wondering about myself (saving me the effort of asking, thanks!). I have seen nothing to indicate she is cult at this time.
4) Tom
Comments have been a mix of informative and irreverent - which means I don't understand about 1/2 of the content as I don't get the gaming references or in-joke stuff. This is normal for me when reading his posts elsewhere so I don't read anything into this pattern. I have seen nothing to indicate he's cult at this time (unless the bus thing ends up being significant for whatever reason).
5) Athena Cykes (AKA Meloetta)
Comments have remained consistent in tone and content regarding being new to TBT and how the game is played here, and the information given in the RQS has been born out so far about activity levels and the like. However, posts # 183, # 185, # 257, do not fit well with the confidence displayed in post # 259 - she is very familiar with - and comfortable using - mafia terminology, yet those 3 posts each display a measure of confusion/hesitancy/passiveness that I find striking compared with her other posts. I'm not reading too much into this at this stage, but it is definitely something I will be keeping in mind. I have seen some slight indications she may be cult, but am far from convinced at this time.
6) Duck (AKA Pokequeen, Queenie)
Comments have been clarifying game rules/etiquette or generally confusing, for the reasons others have raised already. Later comments addressed much of the confusion and expanded on previous insufficient information given, though I remain intrigued by how the "Wisemimir-voted-Toads-as-cult-because-of-apparently-grammatically-incorrect-posts" logic came about. Having re-read this entire thread numerous times, Toads would have to be one of the most grammatically-sound posters here but that's neither here nor there : why would someone having poor grammar be a reason to vote for someone? I can't fathom a person playing their first game choosing *that* as a reason to determine if a player is mafia/town or not, it just makes no sense. So I'm wondering why that rationale would even come up as a reason to explain someone's vote. Especially since Wisemimir is NOT a new player, as per their first post in this thread. I will continue to refer back to post # 196 in particular as it has a lot of curious content. I have seen some slight indications she may be cult, but am far from convinced at this time.
7) Damniel (AKA Daniel, CMD)
Comments have been largely focussed of game mechanics, RQS stuff, and following up on other people's posts. I found post # 194 (in response to post # 191 by Curry) very interesting as I read a lot of helpful detail in Curry's post that hasn't been addressed elsewhere in the thread, especially the part aimed at Wisemimir. This may be partly because I appreciate the explanatory detail given in the latter post - as a new player - but it seems odd to me to be so critical of that post in particular. I've noted that other players have suspicions about him, so there are some indications he may be cult, but am far from convinced at this time.
8) Toadsworthy (AKA Toads)
Comments have often been emotional but always informative and well-aimed at generating further content. I have seen nothing to indicate he's cult at this time.
9) Chrystina (AKA Chrys, Alexi)
Comments have been helpful and insightful, raising many of the same things I had (saving me from having to ask myself, thanks!). I have seen nothing to indicate she's cult at this time.
10) entropy (AKA M3ow)
I haven't known what to make of almost any of their comments here tbh, and I noticed they didn't post an RQS. Post # 244 makes a lot of sense in combination with post # 250 by Endless though. I have seen nothing to indicate they're cult at this time.
11) cpu (AKA Crys)
They haven't posted here since that initial post to join (as others have noted already), despite being around TBT and (I'm pretty sure) discord. I don't know if that means they're cult but it's not a good sign at this point.
12) Curry (AKA ClamEatsCurry)
Comments have been thoughtful and informative. Post # 191 in particular covered a lot of relevant ground. I have seen nothing to indicate he's cult at this time.
13) PandaDarling (AKA Panda)
Comments have been on-point, following up many of the things I had noticed (saving me from having to ask, thanks!). I have seen nothing to indicate she's cult at this time.
14) taesaek (AKA Tae)
I haven't known what to make of many of his comments here tbh. I found post # 188 confusing as this is a "no PM" game so I don't follow how a player could be bussed in conversation. I have seen nothing to indicate he's cult at this time.
15) Fleshy
Comments have been sparse but relevant when made. Post # 258 makes sense to me. I have seen nothing to indicate he's cult at this time.
16) Seroja
Comments have been helpful or focussed on game mechanics. I have seen nothing to indicate she's cult at this time.
17) Iwaseleanor
I'm not too sure what to make of their comments, though all but post # 222 have been explained now. Whilst I read the OP to mean there is NO mafia and won't be unless certain conditions are met, there was definitely reasonable room for confusion and I was surprised no one had asked about this until then. Since it was so clear in the OP to her then I'm wondering why she chose not to copy+paste and highlight the relevant section, for example. I'm also curious about why she haven't responded to the questions others have asked her, since she's been active here. I have seen nothing to indicate she's cult at this time.
18) Menchie
Comments have been reasonably explained by this being her first game. I noticed that she wrote she would be "Prolly REALLY active
" in her RQS but has made 3 posts since, each being very brief and essentially only asking a question. I have seen nothing to indicate she's cult at this time.
19) amanda1983
I write too much as I'm ridiculously pedantic, I'm sorry. :/
20) Wisemimir (AKA Wise, Godot)
Everything I'm wondering about post # 145 has been raised by others. I noticed they haven't been active on TBT since approximately 1.25 hours after editing that last post.
21) Tasuot
Hasn't posted much to work with, but they've only played one game before this. I have seen nothing to indicate he's cult at this time.
Side note : Tasuot is mis-linked in the OP, clicking takes you to posts by Wisemimir instead (clicking Wisemimir also takes you to the posts by the latter).
