RIP I fell asleep while typing reads and wake up to find out the search feature is removed... I think I stopped around when
Minties posted her case on
Trundle. Typing the rest of this post at 5 AM now.
I'm gonna go through each player from the list in OP. Most will be null reads unless stated otherwise bc they can still be 3rd party even if
Ness went after them/vice versa.
Dolby
With two blue deaths and also the most powerful ones, I'm inclined to think Dolby is again bluesniping. All the games I've played with him he's always scum and he's always lurking, and we just let him because he manages to not-look-scummy-enough for us to lynch him. He's not sharing much either in this game, beside
these two posts.
Lucanosa always manages to seem scummy in recent games where his behavior is generally anti-town, so I think scum tend to target him to bandwagon. I'd like to see reads from you,
Dolby.
EDIT: WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS MAFIA
What I noticed about him is that he, like Ness does, say that he's gonna post reads but the most we get is
this. Coincidentally they put
Rune and
Kat as suspicious, but since I made a huge case on
Kat I'm not one to call him out on this lol. Now that it is D2, I want to see his reads first.
Ness went after him and told on his good bye post to look at his post on Daniel. Usually I would clear Daniel as town and be suspicious at anyone going after him, but in this game he could still be 3rd party, since scum would actively go after them as well. Otherwise I'm leaning on null for him from his posts, I'll give him another look once he posted his reads.
EDIT: He has posted his read while I was typing this, and from that, I think he's leaning more on town now.
Panda
Honestly she posts a lot so I'm less inclined to do a read on her. She voted for Ness pretty early so I don't think she's scum, but still possible as 3rd party. Comparing with her playstyle before and now, I'm slightly leaning on null on her from meta. Also waiting for her reads.
Alexi
So far they're behaving like a new player would, and I appreciate that they put more effort than most newbies do. I don't think they're scum because of
this post, as
Ness wouldn't reply like that if they're on the same team. Null for now because there's a chance they're doing so well bc they have a team who told them what to do. Please share what your thoughts about each player so far so we can figure out your thought process
Never played with him as scum and his playstyle matches his town meta, so from his posts so far he's null.
Minties
I honestly prefer to keep her alive for now regardless of alignment. I thought if she's not mafia/3rd party then either of the two would kill her, and if she stayed alive then either she's part of them or they'd guess she'd be protected. Why I prefer to keep her alive? Because just like me, she has the pressure to help town because she's known for her good posts. She HAS to help town scumhunt or people would point out that she's less helpful (just like what people are saying about me). I'd rather keep her alive because she's a player who contribute and can help get discussion going. She even made a post on
Trundle too on which some points she brought up I didn't even realize (I've been dismissing his post subconsciously as from a new player bc of the username change smh) I'll also keep an eye on her if she tries to start a mislynch on someone
Null on her.
Where art thou
Trundle AKA BeaverMan2016 AKA GopherManSupreme AKA AshNOT
Minties' case on him brought up good points, but due to how he plays as town in Forest Fire & Scummy and how he both got lynched on those games, personally for me it seems like he's trying too hard to appear as town in this game to avoid being lynched/killed again and that would make anyone seem scummy. Comparing to him as mafia in GoT & Papers Please, he plays much better on both of those games compared to Scummy, and he got lynched because of a fatal RC and got killed by SK respectively. On Scummy he's just... his death post explains it. Either way if he doesn't step up then we either get scum or another mislynch due to his own mistake. RIP him at this point.
Lucanosa
I'm not gonna even attempt analyzing him because he hasn't improved much. He continues to help himself instead of helping town by repeating "you guys are just starting a ****lynch on me!!" and you know what, people are gonna keep pointing at you if you don't try to scumhunt seriously. (Yes I'm still salty about what happened in Scummy) Can you please do something other than guilt-trip people for actually having valid reasons to suspect you?
The reads below are done after the search feature is disabled for Easters
m3ow
Like Minties I prefer to keep her alive because she has pressure to contribute good posts due to her reputation, and so far she's doing well because she got Ness, and Dolby turned out to be mafia. Null on her as she's still a possible 3rd party.
Jacob
I voted for him on D2 for reasons already stated, though unfortunately while I can't look at his posts right now, I do remember him just voting without saying why (I think Daniel called him out on this). I want to see more of what he says.
Soda Fox/Cory
I'm unfamiliar with how both Soda Fox and Cory plays, and with the search feature disabled I can't find out.
If you noticed, most of these reads have me saying "I want to see their reads/thoughts" that's because I noticed in recent games, we always let the same players carry town and the rest follows through. Now the one who most people scumread are either people who slipped/playing badly, the ones w/ huge posts, and the ones who seem suspicious based on meta. It's unfair because it's letting known lurkers/****posters slip by regardless of alignment.
With how there are two mafia teams, I can't easily discern who is scum based on Ness' flip, so I need more to work with, please. It's also a bit unfair if you rely on other people to find scum for you when we're all busy with other things too
In conclusion: I want to see
doughssant, Panda, Alexi, Lucanosa, and Jacob post reads because I don't have enough to work with here. If you are town, then please help us figure out your alignment by posting more.
I'm also gonna prod the inactive players (
mother of llamas, Crys, Iggy Koopa, stardusk) as I think Sataric allowed us to prod them?
