Regarding Magic, initially when I read Ultra's reasoning on wolves trying to save Ral and Magic could be one of them, I agreed. But I did some further thinking.
Magic's main reason to hesitate on Ral was because it felt mean to punish someone for trying. This is something I debated too in my earlier posts, so a mind meld, and I have done that sort of misread in other games (which is why i decided to go for it this time), so I see the town perspective.
Also, Magic was on most folks' town list early to mid day. His approach with Ral, who was a designated yeet of today, is self-sabotaging his standing in the thread. Rarely do wolves tank themselves like that to help a struggling teammate directly.
Imo, wolves either decided to bus Ral quickly
or tried to create diversions by making other wagons (this is another reason why I was opposing Saber scum reads, because it looked like a diversion) so to move the votes without directly defending their teammate. The Aurelius vs. Grammy thing is a diversion, but it didnt lead anywhere with no votes so it isnt a slam dunk for me.
Magic also stopped posting around the same time Ral stopped posting, and have even posted less than Ral. I dont think a wolf who has received lots of town reads will tank themselves that hard on D1.
So imo Magic is town tbh.
The whole designated yeet thing is also the main reason why I town read Illwei.
Like, if the whole thread is a hive mind and has decided to yeet X, imo scum rarely tries to be contrarian but still sitting still in the boat. Because it only alienates them from the town by being different.
@Ultra also your scum read on me is lol. You know that I as scum am ruthless when it comes to thread play with my teammates tbh and if I want to save 'em, I create something else, like how I decided to spearhead super town read Delta for the lulz in our semi. You're just being a tsundere because I didnt sheep your Saber scum read and trying to snap me for contradictions, when being contradictive is townie tbh
