Hello world, just wanted to share my thoughts before the night ends. I haven't been very proactive this game with my thoughts so here is some things I've been thinking about.
OKAY so after reading everything up to the results post I've concluded the following information:
Jacob directly spoke/interacted with the following players: Trundle, mogyay, unravel, Toadsworthy, Dolby, Temptations, Punchy (forced),
Jacob mentioned the following players: biancasbotique, Vampnessa, Chele
Players that mention Jacob: Heyden, tae, Amazonevan19, Rune (???)
I might have missed some things but I'm pretty sure the above information is accurate. Trundle, mog, unravel, Dolby, and Temptation's direct interactions with Jacob all feel genuine and I don't sense that there were any scumVscum shenanigans in those posts. I mention why I think that Punchy is the most forced of these later in this post. Toads is kind of in a grey area out of these guys.
The players that Jacob mentioned don't really give very much information, but then again, I haven't read too much into other player's posts on Jacob other than the storm of Dolby's read on him earlier. I would say that Chele would be the most interesting of the three there to look into granted I think that Bianca and Vampnessa are kinda townish right now.
I think that there is a very real possibility that someone on the 3.5 players that Jacob didn't interact with are scum, particularly within tae/evan/rune. I say .5 because I have high doubts that heyden is scum. Granted that tae is one of the least active players atm and evan does have a few redeemable qualities, I would say that I find these players suspicious. Rune is kinda in a grey area.
General thoughts:
Guess the scum team: mog definitely idk who else tho
Who would you fearkill N1?Dolby
Who can best read you/who can you read the best? probs dolby. I can't read anyone
In
Jacob's RQS he guessed
Mogyay as scum and that he would kill
Dolby. Not super alignment indicative but I think that it counts as some bit of townie points.
I noticed that Jacob didn’t give a read on me and asked if he forgot me
Also I just played a 40 player game on mafia universe where people basically ignored my existence
Just noting that Jacob was a random pick for Punchy to want out of anyone to read him. Red flag.
No one has any idea how scum Punchy reacts during EoD so this is probably a shot in the dark, as most D1's are so I'm probably not gonna move my vote. I will admit his ATE is kinda throwing me off bc it's exactly like his town behaviour, and I'm not really sure what to make of his opportunism to jump on the Jacob wagon when he realised there was a chance. So ye if I'm gonna be honest I'm a bit unsure but there's nothing else to hop on. I don't think I want to vote Jacob, but tbh maybe if the vig shoots him tonight that'll be good or whatever since he's obviously going to be the one of the main focuses of D2.
tbh sometimes a player being uncertain about a scum lynch at the last second can look semi-scummy but I think I really like Heyden being unsure about the Jacob lynch at the last second, implies a lot more town than scum to me imo since scum heyden probably would have just bussed Jacob (this is going under the assumption that Punchy is a scum PR, as the goon is obviously more favorable to lose in this scenario)
This post was in reply to
Temptations accusing Jacob of flipping scum. Small detail but I think it's interesting.
vig don't shoot me. you are being influenced by mafia
This really just seals the deal of any thoughts that made me think Punchy was town, this is scummier than my middle school locker room. Instead of defending himself reasonably he makes this monument of scumminess. Honestly if Punchy isn't shot by a vigilante tonight I might shed a tear or two.
tldr:
Trundle, Mogyay, unravel, Dolby
Biancasbotique, Vampnessa, Temptations
Runeraider, Toadsworthy, tae, Chele (barely, I need to look into her and this might change)
