I feel like I have learned a lot by doing this.
I read all of Persus' post on D1 and I want to share how that went.
Let the hunt begin.D1 Persus#76 - Persus' first post. He remarks about the setup. He responses to Lenglon's miller claim in a "hmmmm" way. He responds to Toony telling Tric not to claim their role like last Supernatural and asks Toony about past games.
This is a fine opening post.
#101 - Persus softly asks Knightwing if they've played with them before and what their mafia experience is since they recognize KW the least.
Fine.
#158 - Persus responds to Jack/Max/Toony talking about cult flavor and how sometimes they're just killers and sometimes they're converters. Persus asks Jack why they are scumreading Jim. Persus responds to Toony roasting them from Supernatural 7.
Persus FoS NQT for trying to figure out game flavor/mechanics early before we even have D2 flavor.This post might imply Persus expected to survive to D2, so his death may have been unexpected to him.
Also suspecting NQT in general might mean NQT is not Evil, or not Evil with Persus.
#160 - Persus finds Knightwing suspicious for getting defensive when Max attacks KW.
This looks like a natural attack on Persus' part.
#169 - Persus likes most of NQT's stuff, but thinks some of NQT's questions to 4mask seem overblown but isn't sure since it's ongoing. Persus questions why Tric used the word mislynches against Max.
Soft prodding at NQT and Tric. Looks natural.
#193 - Lenglon asks Persus what their top 3 scum right now are and why since Lenglon feels they aren't fully engaged in scumhunting.
Persus says they would shoot Tric, NQT, and 4mask. Persus gives justifications for each of these players. Persus gives Hector/Toony/Jim strong town reads. Thinks Lenglon is the person that wastes people's time on D1. Isn't sure about Jack, Knightwing, and Max since he doesn't know them well. Forgot Vector and Egan were even in the game. Asks a question to Vector and Egan.
This is a really important post. Let's thank Lenglon for having them make it.
I think it's unlikely both NQT and 4mask are Evil from this post unless Persus was completely bussing them.
One could be Evil, or none.
#209 - Persus votes Tric so he'll answer his question about mislynches. Responds to Jack and asks them what their read on Jim is. Thanks Jack for the response and the funny Jim post they linked.
Fine.
#249 - Tells Lenglon that their yellow roleplay text is unreadable in light mode.
Fine.
#283 - Persus isn't happy with the 4mask lynch because Knightwing's vote was RVS, Jack's vote was random, and NQT's vote is purely tactical. Finds 4mask and Tric both hard to read, but thinks town 4mask is more useful than town Tric. Persus votes Knightwing (off of Tric) here because he wants them to justify their vote on 4mask. Also remarks they need to go through Jack's posts and see if there's more of a reason for them voting 4mask. Let's Tric off the hook after being neutral about them. Explains why they voted Tric to Lenglon.
Persus looks like they care about 4mask here since they're voting Knightwing for having a questionable 4mask vote.
#315 - Tells Knightwing there's plenty of time left in D1 for them to post.
Fine.
Knightwing's post here is more reason why I think they're by themselves and probably Good.
#386 - Was going to post today but is tired of stuff going on in-thread and is just going to go to sleep. Will try to post tomorrow morning and be around for day end.
They kept this promise.
#419 - Persus gives Toony a reason for why Max would spill a bunch of info.
This post feels very much like Persus and Max have no relationship.
#423 - "Random Thought 3: Given all the buddying going on, part of me is paranoid that webadict did the two scumteams trick again." Thinks Max doesn't really have a grand plan and is flaily. Doesn't really see Max as scum, but if he was scum then his partners must be Egan or Vector or someone less active like that. Unvotes Knightwing for feeling like panicked town. Votes Hector because Persus feels Hector is coasting. Responds to Hector's lukewarm town read of Jack, thinks Hector is copying Toony's case on 4mask. Asks Egan if they have a favorite town or scum game they've played. Reponds to Vector's FoS towards them about their reads, says that Tric and Max feels like town vs town. Thinks Toony is town but some of his takes are weirdly overconfident. Jim and Knightwing both feel fairly town. Is most suspicious of Hector. Isn't sure about Vector or Egan because they haven't posted enough. Isn't as sure about his top 3 scum reads of Tric/4mask/NQT that Lenglon asked him earlier in D1. Thinks Hector is more guilty than any of the three currently. Tells Tric that Max's behavior is classic town lynch play.
Another really important post with a lot to analyze.
Persus randomly mentions that he's worried Webadict did a two scumteam setup again. Persus was Evil so was this an honest paranoia? The irony is massive if he was killed by another scum team. The way Persus was killed looks extremely cult-like and not monster-y, but I'm not sure. We'll obviously learn more as people get killed.
Persus starts to vote Hector here after unvoting Knightwing.
Gives updated reads on everyone
except Jack, oops must have forgot I guess.
#424 - Adds in they forgot to remove the Toony header they ended up posting as #419 instead.
Fine.
#426 - Responds to 4mask being confused by Max's roleclaim by pointing out that the "effectively recruited" part seems weird. "How are you effectively recruited? Someone takes your role or tells you what to do?"
Maybe that's what Max means if someone offers him a Devil Deal. It's not a conversion so much as a takeover. Like maybe they take all of Max's abilities and their vote?
#427 - Responds to Lenglon that their guess on the setup sounds like the Good, Bad, and the Ugly game they hosted.
Fine.
#471 - Responds to Vector: "Unless someone tries to tie up the vote at day end, I'll probably stick with my vote. I'm not convinced Max is scum, but I think his flip gives us a lot of info still, same if 4maskwolf or NQT winds up overtaking him. Hector's response to my post was a decent response, but not enough to make me unvote and make me not want to see his flip." Tells Hector they're happy they added to their 4mask case more, but still feels like they're pointing out what others noticed first.
Persus is content with Max being the leading wagon in this post.
Seems pretty fine if 4mask or NQT end up getting lynched instead of Max.
Isn't convinced by Hector's post and continues to vote them, Hector was only being voted by Persus at this point.
I believe this post means it's unlikely Persus was partners with any of Max, 4mask, NQT, or Hector.
Actual priority order would be something like Max > 4mask = NQT > Hector with Max meaning the least to Persus and 4mask and NQT probably not meaning much to Persus. Hector is interesting because he was the only vote on Hector so he could be bluffing and not expecting a big wagon to happen.
#475 - Tells NQT to deal with it when NQT tells Persus that a last second Hector push isn't going to happen.
Fine.
#520 - Persus' last post, 90 minutes before Day end. Hector has two votes now, the other by Jack. Continues to pressure Hector. Explains to Lenglon why Hector is suspect. Responds to Knightwing's question by telling him Lenglon was the first to mention three witches.
Persus' push on Hector looks convincing. I don't really see Hector as partners with Persus here.
And that's it. Persus doesn't post anymore D1 and Tric is executed.
The next day Persus is found dead with their belly cut open and their organs (plus feathers and wings) laid in a circle around him.
I don't get the impression he expected to die.
Not a single player voted Persus on D1.
Persus voted Tric, then Knightwing, then Hector on D1.
Vector FoS'd Persus once.
Persus FoS'D NQT once.
My opinion of compatibility level with Persus as a partner (I'm ignoring D2):
Most likely
Jack
Egan
Jim
Vector
Hector
4mask
NQT
Knightwing
Max
Lenglon
Least likely
Jack and Egan have a high possibility of being with Persus, Jack more than Egan.
Jim and Vector have a moderate possibility of being with Persus, Jim more than Vector.
Everyone else has a low possibility of being with Persus.
If Persus has a partner or partners I would guess they are within Jack/Egan/Jim/Vector.
If Persus doesn't have any partners I wasted my evening.
Bonus Content:Tric's reads on D1 (they never changed so I can grab any post lol):
No, it's the one telling me not to claim when I've already decided on that. Believe 4mask said that's my only town tell afterward.
Also Jack. As stated, mostly going off of meta. This isn't town jack or town max to me. And as max said, they gel together. A Jack/Max/Toony scumteam makes sense in my head, though my read on Toony was a bit weaker when I made it.
In either case, my pick to lynch today is either max or jack. My townreads right now are.. Egan, NQT, Persus. Legnlon I'm reading as third party, but they're not really a threat at the moment. At least I know they're not scum, and those evildoers are the ones we need to lynch.(
Mostly worte this down in third, which given it's a response to you is odd, but eh.)
Tric scumreads Max/Jack/Toony.
Tric townreads Egan/NQT/Persus.
Tric thinks Lenglon is third-party.
PPE:
Max: Are you currently Neutral? I know I've asked this before, but it's very relevant to the current conversation.
I think I have it figured out.
Max wouldn't get converted but it neuters him in some way ("effectively converted" in Max's words) that would be bad if Knightwing isn't Good.
