Town will likely hurridly tell the truth if they are being pushed by a consensus of other players. Scum will stall until they known what the best course of action is.

it's not a wiki tell. it's actually a Lord Gurgi MD thread and it describes the core scum philosophy. good reading.In post 1566, Turkish Van wrote:Only thing that bothers me about Anti is the fact I started pushing Cho-Scum and now this day phrase he votes our hydra due to a wiki page.

given that i've been calling cho scum this whole time your whole chainsawing theory is just plain wrong.

people had townreads on notty?In post 1575, Kublai Khan wrote:^ This.
Cho, so far your play has been nothing but "Oh, people have a town-read on this slot? Then I'm going to coast on that." Well, your coasting has caused that townread to stop and you need to do more than just cheerlead wagons.

i don't think anyone's been replaced since you've gotten here. burn and notty are the only ones who've gotten replaced. they were the reason you were playing this game?
you've never shown any indication of actually catching up and that's really weird to me. who replaces into a game thinking "i'm not going to catch up. screw it."? lemni i kind of get since she apparently thought her death was inevitable anyway, but you can't say the same.The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.-

a short treatise on how depressed i am about this game
hello, fellow players of NY 173. i'm antihero and i royally screwed up this game. i should have about half the post count i do now and, up to now, my reads have been liquid shit. i completely failed as a townie this game.
i tried remedying this problem by posting less. this only made the game stall and has gotten us nowhere. i'm still sitting, festering in this feces-filled cesspool of null reads. by now, i'm so far down this bullshit rabbit hole that, in my current mental state, i could be talked into lynching literally anybody on this playerlist.
with no townreads and with beastcharizard gone, i don't think i can go on.
i'm the other mason.
really, this is for the best. giving the remaining town PR an almost guaranteed night and forcing the SK/mafia to WIFOM on whether or not to stack kills is the best think i can do for town at this point because, in terms of day play, i've been a complete sack of crap. i figure that the town PR is a cop (which gives him an extra investigation) or a doc (the kills might fail anyway). also, if i wait any longer, i risk a scum counterclaim, and i do NOT have the energy to deal with that.
-antihero
tl:dr;
p.edit: i'm sorry titus. i've been in the funk for a while and i just haven't been able to snap myself out of it. i'm just out of energy and out of morale. and me dying would probably help town's chances of winning.The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.-

dear Cho and lady with infinity as her avatar,
you two have done nothing so far. i know you two are probably great people who lead very busy lives, but you knew when you signed up for this game that you had to do some reading and catching up. please do it.your failure to do so is forcing us to make a read based on nothing.
understand this: if you are town, you are letting scum have free mislynches.
i don't care how long your catchup post is. just please do something that can be read. if you're town,show us.
dear zmuffinman,
hey. i know i haven't been exactly trusting of your slot. but, regardless of your alignment, i think you're a pretty smart guy and i really need your help right now.
you seem to have built townreads on a lot of players. pick out your strongest ones (what you would call your "townbloc") and please give me a quick blurb about why they're town.
i'm going to attempt to use that as a starting point for rebuilding my reads (which are in absolute shambles right now).
thanks in advance.The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.-

Within the inactives, I would lynch Cho over you any day. I don't think notty was town.In post 1617, Lemniscate wrote:I'm here. Just got prodded. What exactly do you want from me? I really dislike the idea of being the leading wagon, and working my ass off to help create cases and be active, only to get lynched for my efforts. I'd really rather not. So if you're going to lynch me, just do it already. I'm VT, I've already claimed, there's nothing left to do here. If you want to work together and you want my help in pursuing other candidates and actually finding scum, great, I'll gladly help, but get your votes off of me and actually do some work yourself. Putting your vote on an inactive girl who hasn't really played much this game and having that as your leading lynch, shows just how terrible the town play here is. Scum could literally sit back and do nothing, and just let the town lynch themselves. Which is why I'm certain they are doing.
Kahn is so ridiculously scum, it's incredible. The leader part that you kiss his ass with, is also incredible. If you're going to sheep the scum, then you mind as well just end this game now. Otherwise get your own head out of your ass and play the game. Stop complaining that nobody else is playing, because look at the results. You're vote is on me, and the only thing you can say is, I'm "lurking." Which is incredible, as well. Obviously, me and Cho are not the only ones not really playing here.
i can buy your story of not wanting to spend too much time on a game where you're going to die anyway (been there myself). but please try. who are your other reads besides khan?The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.-

well, i've been comparing lemni to cho this whole time, but i actually don't think that's a fair comparison. cho has at least given reads on everybody. lemni has been here since May 20th but has only given reads on two slots.
what's up with that? even if lemni thought her slot was going down in flames (which it really wasn't), then why would she at least do... i don't know... something.
as town, there's the "fuck it, i don't want to spend any time" excuse. BUT, why even join a game if that's your thinking? if you're not prepared to do some reading, wouldn't you... not replace into a 50+ page game? AND, if you're town, it's not like dying prevents you from fulfilling your win condition.
as scum, there's plenty of reason to stonewall. namely, not giving away your last scumbuddy.The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.-

and i kind of figure that either
1) lemni really is scum, and it's like khan is saying. the game is stalling because scum are just bumbling around and don't know what to do.
OR
2) muffinman and khan are completely taking me for a ride and lynching out of the legions of anti-town.
part of me is really bothered about that greyice kill and what that means for khan and part of me just thinks that the greyice kill was a join date (meta) kill and doesn't necessarily have to do with his reads.The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.-

BUT if lemni really is scum, then where's the resistance to the wagon? who's her buddy? the only logical answer that follows is titus, which is pretty unsatisfactory given that katarina was pretty town and titus is pretty town as well.
i suppose lemni could be the serial killer. but monkeyman making that peregrine night 1 kill...? i don't know......The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.-

twisted, khan, nati, nottyslot
re: twisted
yeah, fine. i'm just ready to write that slot off as town and quit second guessing myself.
if they're pulling one over on me, they did a good job.
re: nottyslot
while i try my hardest to not be tainted by meta, i'm tainted by meta here. i've seen notty's town game before (dark age of the law) and he was very engaged, motivated, and talkative. ever since this game began, he's been strikingly unengaged and detached. i know notty recently siteflaked, but the detachment was since the beginning of the game.
re: khan
you mention not having an agenda, but i'm having a hard time trusting that. i don't know, the push on lemni seems kind of single minded. i really want to force myself to believe that this slot is town.
re: nati
yeah, that sounds fine. the only issue i have with this slot is that nati's second wind seemed really short lived. he and kaze are back to their old ways...The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.-

i'm hammering lemniscate. i've given her a few chances to be town and she didn't take them. and khan's right. the game's stalling and it's not really helping anyone.

I don't have a good sense of the game rhythm here, but it seems very likely that we have groupscum directing a lot of the scum hunting somehow. I'll be looking for that in my reread.
zmuffinman played a more subtle role in a it, and i do think he's scum
