I want to say this is just a tunneled townie because I don't know why a mafia would spend all that time and energy ISO'ing these people or complaining about the ITA list or spending all day begging for a Protag vote.
Pareidolia ISO:
Votes LickyLicky for suggesting QoL updates. Idk how serious it was initially but they use it to reaction test.
Later posts confirm that Pareidolia wants to do reaction tests with wild votes and then analyze the reactions so that the game becomes manageable to read. They're also just going for live reactions.
A bit of a weird post sprinkled in that essentially says I'll share my reads later if I'm alive so idk if they thought they were gonna die.
They accuse The Hat of being scummy for wanting someone to catch them up instead of reading up themselves.
Initial scumreads are: The Hat, Protag, and Hon Hon Hon.
Refused to vote more until they caught up with thread.
Wanted to vote off both Pilgrim and Protag D1 because they thought both were suspicious (later posts say they think it's w/w with someone bussing). When Tiny Hippo called this a dumb idea, Pareidolia moves Tiny Hippo to a lower read (from neutral to less trusted). Later just moved the suspicion to Pilgrim and voted there.
D2 their top scum was Hon Hon Hon bc they thought Hon Hon Hon was pocketing. They see the "there is at least one wolf" modpost and immediately start ISOing the players listed. From the ISOSs they conclude that Naptime is scummy, Protag is still scummy, BHD as town, Red Cross as lazy and possibly connected to Naptime or Eyescream.
They continuously push for protagonist and say red cross should be next. They really aren't a fan of BHD being taken hostage.
Really odd post among all the "kill protag" posts is that Red cross is on Scarf's ITA list and Pareidolia doesn't like the list because there is "not a single scum from [their] list here" despite Pareidolia scumreading Red Cross allegedly.
They shoot Hon Hon hon which makes sense sort of. It seems like Hon Hon Hon and Protag are their top srs. They also suggest trying to deduce who fired the silent shot by looking at who didn't shoot, but it turns out the mafia leader gets the silent shot and their ITA shot. This idea to hunt for the silent shot seems uninformed since the idea happened before the Pyramid flip.
During ITAs they keep shouting about how the list was bad. Suddenly The Hat is back on their readlist.
At one point they say someone said "shoot at Red Cross only if you're mafia". Did someone actually say this?
They say Anthill and me (Oink) should be vote candidates for D2 for killing NEL but is talked out of it by SSS.
