WW35: Not Another TPS Report [Game Thread]

[zakalwe]

Jowy, Azarius has been consistent in defending Bob since night 1. I think he has the wrong expectations about how scum would act, but I'm not so sure that he's one of them.

Final post for the night. Perhaps.

Jabbz did some Rolanding when he was scum in the C9++ game.

[Azarius]

I'm not saying there's no way bob is scum zak, it's just that the main point against him seems to revolve around something that yes, seems like fancy play. Scum get these machiavellian plans attributed to them, and a good portion of the time what they are actually doing is much simpler. If I caught you before you left please fill me in if I'm missing something here. I haven't had the most time today to look through it all but that is what it seems like it's based on to me.

Consistent? Hmm. Not so sure about that. It's interesting to me. Their fates seem intertwined.

Good night, I'm also gone to bed.

To simplify the case: Bob made that awkward first post an hour or two *after* Novice had claimed cop. He then spent his next couple of posts slowly backing off Novice, as he realized that nobody actually wanted to lynch a claimed cop at that stage. He was just very out of tune with the town.

He then spent most of the rest of the day being fiercely protective of all power roles, and advising against a mass claim. Which is odd, considering he straight-up wanted to lynch the first cop that claimed.

So you think Bob wanted to be seen as the guy who killed/insisted on killing scum novice and get that cred? Makes sense, I guess. I need to reread his posts a bit, but is very late.

@Ichabod. There's a lot of meta-fluff in Bob's posts. Isn't that scummy, in your mind?

Yeah, but it's not really unexpected. Bob feels like a guy that plays werewolf but doesn't really like to play the way we do here. In that sense, I feel that he spends not that much time with the game after it started, which leads to "lazy" play, using meta and stuff. So, i'd say it's a bit in character.

And to be fair, we can't really disregard meta arguments in this game, the setup really favours it (much, much more than I antecipated when reading it).

And I think I was a bit too fierce with my comment that we are going for a mislynch. Specially considering I only analysed Adrien's case with more care (which I felt a bit forced), not all the case against bob. Anyway, it's not like I'm dead sure of anything, at this point.

I agree with Gazglum's points against bob. I don't know bob's meta so perhaps this is just how he plays, but his recent posts have been very suspicious. I would be willing to vote for him but I still want to hear more from dtay.

Molach has really gone under the radar in this game, not sure how to interpret that really. The posts he's made have been good so I'm not interested in going after him today unless he claims scum :wink:.

Don't like how Rowain's posting so far tbh, he hasn't put himself out there and made any real cases. His last post about Jowy exemplifies this, making noises about scum Jowy without committing. Would like him to explain his five scum reads (ie the people he said he wanted to lynch today). Possibly I'm off base here but the impression I get from his posts is of somebody trying to escape notice but still appear to be contributing.

[Fenn]

Jowy, when you wake up, could you provide your reasoning for your town reads on me, AdrienIer and Gazglum?

[Ichabod]

I don't think dtay will mind being lynched after what just happened on the Superbowl!

[Fenn]

I caught the tail end of it...some finish, eh?

[Jabbz]

It has been an insanely busy day, and quite honestly I haven't had time to read even a third of the posts. I won't have time tonight either. I'll do my best to get some stuff in before deadline tomorrow morning. Sorry about that :/
