A scum mom
Note that some of this **** was written last night so a lil out of date (mainly Sensai's, will look more into their posts after I post this to see if my opinion changed).
1. Trundle - Iirc regarding Trundle's meta, he's very ****-posty and not actually productive in his reads until late in the game as mafia. He's being very loud with his reads, unapologetic, and that rings some pretty heavy town in my book.
2. SensaiGallade - In Sensai's reads, there's a contradiction in their own opinion: in post 269, Sensai mentioned Bianca being her would be their lynchee due to "unfolding of previous games" (can I get some clarification on this wording?) and Bianca made one comment about Vanessa being a good King choice before Sensai changed them to null. Why the change in read?
Other than that, the defensive nature of their posts is bothering me, as well as when Tina was getting pressured, Sensai seemed to stick to the "Tina's town bc of her frustration" train of thought which I think was proved false pretty obviously by glow. Not entirely sure if this is scum motivated, but it's something I've taken note of.
You mentioned you had nothing to contribute - I'd love to hear you elaborate on who and what of "there are people who are active more suspicious".
3. AmazonEvan19 Before anything else, I'm lost over the Evan/Tina connection. Would love some explanation on that, Dolby. Guessing its bc Evan puts Tina in null despite questioning her? I'd argue a Tina/Sensai connection has a lot more merit though.
Evan keeps bringing up that Dolby isn't confirmed just because he's king, which feels preach-to-the-choir-y (that's not even been mentioned as a reason for townreading him, except for some newer people who were corrected much earlier), so that's bothering me. And Evan, I feel like your glow/general scum reads were very weak. Zendel came out of no where, the logic for Waffles SR is that she's buddying with Toad, and glow you just mentioned the "I brushed up on it thing" but never really got detailed. I'm not a fan for sussing you over questioning someone and having them in your null list (specifically how you questioned Tina iirc) and your tone, while feeling forced towards the beginning of the game, feels more natural to me atm. Plus I'm not liking how the wagon (or rather, theoretical wagon since there's no votes in this besides Dolby's) is just sitting on Evan with little resistance - wagonomics says that it's a lynch scum's satisfied with.
Did not like the "last line before I die" thing though he made at like 1:48ish EST - while a joke, it felt overreactive to me.
Would love to hear elaboration on why glow, Waffles, and Zendel back when you made those reads, Evan.
4. VanessaMay18 The main impression I get is scared, and that's a hard emotion to decipher in mafia, especially for a newer player. She seems hesitant to share her own opinion, which on one hand makes me paranoid and think she's watching what she's saying so she isn't scumslipping, but on the other hand, it could be a newer player being scared of being lynched, and I'm leaning towards the latter because she does state her opinion, like how she townread jacob and tina, but she just seems afraid to stick with it, and I don't think newer scum would default to controversial opinions in the first place if they're scared.
5. Dolby So far, nothing's stuck out with him yet for me scumtell wise, he seems to be engaged and active. A quiet Dolby is a dangerous Dolby and he's not quiet so that's always a good sign. Dolby's good as hell at mafia though, so I'm not comfortable for passing him off as strong town, but I've liked how open to opinion he is rather than being shut into a tunnel.
Maybe I missed it, but Dolby, can you elaborate on why F11?
6. Toadsworthy - I think we can believe his TP claim for now, especially with him not using the Survivor excuse to be afk.
7. xCleb - He's backing out for now so too quiet to really make a read on.
8. Biancasbotique - A lot of Bianca's posts feel like fluff, but that's typical bianaca so not gonna get my panties in a twist over it. But actually looking for content, the only time she directly addressed something was when she thought a post @ Panda was @ her and she got defensive. If Panda is mafia, I'd wager Bianca's mafia bc she might have seen her alignment attacked and gotten that mixed up. She also made a post earlier about Evan and Tina kinda being a team that A. doesn't seem to have much merit and B. feels very bandwagony.
Bianca, you keep mentioning you want Ryumia to be King, and judging by your prelude, I presume you're sus of Ryumia. What's making you sus?
9. ITookYourWaffles - I don't like how Waffle's recent posts seem to be pretty much all related to gender stuff when there's a lot of **** to be talking about, I don't like how Waffles seemed to duck out right after the start of day when she was under fire, and I don't like how her SRs seemed to focus on people being inactive when they really weren't though.
Waffles, on a purely "mafia or not mafia" thought process, what's your thoughts on f11?
10. Tom - First off, there's the beginning of the day RQS where he's acting apologetic for always SRing Heyden for his playstyle, which I didn't like but didn't really think too much of it at the time. Then there's Panda. Tom said earlier he knows something about Panda and that everyone needs to step off of him and onto Evan, yet seems to not really have a strong inclination on why Evan. And then when asked, he mentions that if he were King he might sheep off of glow and lynch either Toads or Panda, and I'm not a fan of that especially when he was so hellbent on getting the train off of Panda earlier. Then there's the seemingly strong focus on "lynch for information", which I believe he started, which is bull****. The entire point of getting information out of lynches is if people believe that the person they're advocating for getting lynched is mafia. It doesn't work because "hey, let's get more information", because that motive in of itself deletes a lot of the further reasoning that could be gleaned out of the wagon since scum can jump on and be like "lmao hey look we're lynching for information I dont actually believe in it." He's been acting nonchalant this entire game, posting **** like the Guzma pic and the "mafia or no it'll be popcorn either way" line, which isn't inherently a scumtell but with everything else adding up I'm not liking it. And finally, I didn't like his reply to my question regarding Toads, not going to elaborate too much but a read that I feel like he was trying to convey is seriously not adding up with that answer, which is making me lean towards him trying to save a scummate. If Panda is scum, Tom is for sure.
11. Chick - I didn't like how they basically tried to scream bloody murder to get Panda lynched, but other than that, I've liked what they've said quite a bit, and they seem to be confident and I like that.
Elaborating on the rest later, these are impressions w/o ISOing but I'm damn tired of not being able to get this post out
12. Byngo - need to ISO, null, nothing she did really stood out
13. Heyden - Slight SR,
14. Tina - Gonna abs from this one until I can make a bigger post later (hopefully at some point before 4) because I feel like I really need to ISO her I have a lot of conflicting thoughts atm
16. Jacob - tr
17. Ryumia - tr
18. Glow - tr
19. PandaDarling - sr
20. F11 - need to ISO, null, nothing she did stood out
