This is my five town core.
FLOWER
Town in my view. There seems to be little self awareness and high activity which is a town tell. I’ve not personally liked how she has gone around saying players are definitely scum, e.g. GAD and Luka - way too bullish. But scum are not usually bullish. I think that wanting a player lynched half way through day in myself is fairly questionable ironically considering what happened with Luka, but realism/pragmatism etc is something I’d associate chiefly with scum.
I think her expectation that people would just accept that her claim of main character was town seemed town. It’s usually town that have the “why are you not seeing what I’m seeing?” blinkers on for obvious reasons - scum generally would be more cautious about this type of thing.
THE ORCA
Slightly controversial one, but I think he is town. His play around the L-1 of Xadlin is what gives me pause. Very very few scum players would hesitate on a wagon like that and draw attention to themselves. In the mind of a scum player, that’s the time when it’s “let’s just quietly leave a vote” - there’s ostensibly the risk of being tied to the player at L-1 and Xadlin was fairly inactive so I’d not see much reason in scum going for the throat there.
AURELIAN
I reviewed Lethal’s posts and noticed a lot of hostilities here between Lethal and Aurelian. It didn’t read like distancing or bussing, and Lethal’s issues stemmed around Fang’s posts on Xad regarding his entrance to the thread. Reconciling a hypothetical Lethal/Fang/Xad axis - I don’t think a scum Lethal is going to play the 4D chess of bussing a teammate who is bussing another player. It would be incredibly counter productive as it puts the obligation on Lethal to push a teammate - a teammate who only pushed their comrade for thread control/equity. In my view, it’s a write off.
MAGIC
My belief is that Magic is town, his thoughts seem to be aligning with mine on some of the players in the thread. I also think a scum Magic is more keen to push me.
Considering the only reason he had NOT to push me if he was scum, would be to get me on his side - I don’t view this juice as worth the squeeze, as it’s resulted in scepticism from others with more thread control. In addition, I shat on his case from last game excessively where he was town and pushing me. For a scum magic, he’d probably work out from this that him pushing a case of any degree of quality may not lead me to suspect him directly. I think managing my slot without regard to his standing in the thread points to him being town, as he’d a be a little more neurotic in terms of his thread perception as scum.
