I'm very supportive of Seraphim's plan to not care about who gets lynched until people start dying.
pirate mollie and Heartless are both still incredibly town.
Not mattering who dies and not caring are different things, but sure.
VOTE: theamateur
Jesus christ I'm as bad at this as faraday aren't I.-

I think you're making some assumptions about how I'm going to play the game based on my first post, and are voting me on that expectation of playstyle rather than the actual statement I made.
I also think that trying to get 14 players on a single wagon is going to be a generally frustrating and miserable experience if people take it too seriously and there isn't enough grease for the wheels.-

So I got around to reading the game and amatuer doesn't seem particularly scummy actually.
Heartless looks a little town too but I never like "i'm town because of my role" arguments, and the neg-utility role they have could theoretically be scum, the PGO would be the only weird thing to give to scum and it'd be fine one out of every 5 days in a game this big.
VOTE: BipolarChemist
I am pretty serious about wanting dead things faster than normal though so if you have a decent wagon you want me on poke me with reasons and I can probably join if they're not awful.-

Still fine with my ika vote.
Don't really like mastin's posting but it's mostly her pushing that she's conf. town which although is actually manipulative is something town and scum both do because it helps them and they can get away with it.
Farside's read on mastin seems overthought for how early in the game all of mastin's posts are that she's discussing but it's not really scummy from farside either.
Shaft's post asking about the case on ika and also saying that he won't be getting on it felt a little off to me, I'd actually vote him if he was being wagoned atm.
Because this is a large game I'm fully expecting someone to come in and start talking about the 'speed of wagons' soon and I am pre-emptively saying that speed of wagons is always useless informationless garbage and if you're looking for an excuse to derail a wagon on someone who hasn't done anything town themselves yet than you're probably contributing more to a convoluted unreadable day 1 than most of the scum themselves will be. If you think someone's town because of reasons that you put into words or someone's clearly scummier because also words then fine but if you bring up wagon bullshit in a game this big I will hate your guts.-

So I'm not absolutely 100% on ika being scum.
But he seems to have a pretty fine chance of being scum and mollie is now super super town, and I am basically ecstatic to have that as an actual legitimate reason for a day 1 lynch instead of the normal clusterhell of opinions that makes everyone disinterested in the game and ensures that they never read back later to make better opinions.
So go go ika lynch it's the best come join us i believe in all of you and more words that say similar things!-

I think ika immediately starting to do isos instead of reading the thread normally and commenting on what stood out for him is a little bit more likely to come from scum than town, to me it seems more likely that scum would see that they needed to look town and start trying to look town with a reads list.
The alternative is the possibility of town coming in and deciding to iso everyone after just 20 pages in a game this big, it's a little unlikely that he'd be thinking that there'd be a ton of info to be gained by isoing everyone given that there's only 20 pages in a 27 player game.-

ika wagon has a damn solid basis and aside from like farside voting someone else for an actual reason it seems like most everyone else is either looking for reasons why ika's town to be contrary or basing things off of awful, awful wagon/pairing analysis with TWENTY-SEVEN unflipped players currently in the game.
vote ika, lynch scum, deal with other problems tomorrow-

This is definitely cognant, and if you have an read on someone else for something stronger than *they be lurking in a scummy way mon* then go be convincing about it.
Additionally, burdens are dumb. Fuck 'em.-

Damn it guys. It's a 27 player game. You are always always always going to have people playing just like ika. They're lazy, guilty people and they feel like they have to do something and unable to do anything. The 'insight' that isoing people in a 20 page, 26 player game offers little info just isn't a sufficiently common sentiment here on MS for it to be factored into scum reads.
This is a fair point at least and I'd probably give it a bit more credence if ika had posted literally anything that looked town.
But he hasn't, and I do think that type of behavior IS more likely, if not guaranteed, to be coming from scum.
I also think that his isos of at least one person (maybe more, dont have time to check now) stating that he needs to read the thread to actually have a read on them is indicative that he's not doing the isos in order to get a better read on the players, he's just doing it for the sake of doing the iso.
Isoing someone and then not bothering to go into the context of the posts around it if you don't have a read on them AND think that reading more would help is not actually a scumhunting mindset.-

Yes.
UNVOTE:
We have 14 days. I don't think we need to use all of it, but we could use more of it than this.
I understand the logic behind this but i don't think it works at all in practice.
When people just stall the lynch for reads just for the sake of having more information, it becomes much easier for scum to make stances that have very little actual effect on the gamestate, making it much easier for them to fabricate town-looking reads and spend time analyzing the players and how they can avoid being pushed by individual players by avoiding or engaging in specific behaviors. It also makes it much less likely for everyone to put in the time and effort to reread the early game much later in the game, when a lot of what looks useless now might actually have game relevance given other player's flips.
If you want reads from a specific subset of people before the day ends then go ahead and ask them, but I really dislike stalling everything for the sake of using all of our time.-

HEY IKA
-What is the most interesting thing in the game that you think could be related to the alignment of a player?
-What posts have you really liked or not liked as you've gone through the game so far?
as much as it'd be satisfying to try to swing everything onto amateur when he thinks I could be scum for *nonexistent reasons* I don't actually see much of an indication that he'd actually flip scum either
Probably going to be busy until late tonight though, I'll find someone to vote then.

Pssyyyyche
Is *he's prob scum or VT* really enough on its own for you when you to change your mind when you've been going on about it for so long? Like a power role heavy/heavyisshh game is fairly likely but that not enough that I would want to change based on it being a relatively non-harmful thing in your position.-

On the bright side since I'm not voting ika anymore now I can be legitimately threatening
HEY IKA get in and post things (detailed reads/thoughts on particular parts of the game would be pretty good) within 25 hours or I'm gonna kill ya.
Granted, this is no guarantee that someone else won't kill you before that time limit
so sooner is better-

Yeah I reread a little and disagree with pretty much everything you wrote in that last paragraph there Heartless
-Him creating/causing the 1v1 in the first place is way way more likely to come from town
-He sees a pretty clear possible scum motivation from you trying to become conf. town and is confident enough about it to try to use everything that possibly points to you being scum to get you lynched
-"isn't a town way to go about a 1v1" honestly feels like a really bullshit copout about what he's doing being antitown and not good play instead of why it's more likely to be coming from scum behaviorally.
don't want to lynch him at all.-

the fact that him getting his panties in a bunch came right on the heels of tth's case doesn't exactly suggest the purity of motives you seem to want to give him the benefit of the doubt for
he didn't show up to day 2 until after you both made the case on him and claimed that

like I'll think about it i guess
but sera deciding to kill heartless because they're bulletproof still seems kind of dumb? like targeting a negative role in general for the kill even without the PGO seems kinda silly, having a bulletproof go kill it specifically instead of waiting a day or just leaving it for a real long time seems pretty weird.
i'll wait for a response about him having heartless as a town read yesterday though, didn't remember that.-

hold on i need to say this
MOMENTUM OF WAGONS IS SUCH MEANINGLESS GARBAGE
it's based on the individual choices of 4 different people, at least half of which are pretty much guaranteed to be not scum by statistics and that it'd be plainly moronic for all the scum to pile on a counterwagon when Sera's is that big, nevermind that again I think that nobody on BRO's actual wagon looks particularly scummy.
Okay yeah that's it I'll be back later-

I don't think seraph saying "your scumteam etc" really means anything, it's just the typical bullshit that players of both alignments spew out when they're accusing someone of being scum and think that they have a role-related argument for them being scum.
Give me til tonight to think about Seraphim a bit more.

You absolutely insisted Sera was town and your current wagon is viable. What's with this post?
bro wagon seemed to be dying out before you jumped on it after I did that
Also I'm not actually thaaat confident in Sera-town without him having some detailed reads to go over in addition to the 1v1 stuff. Cause I do feel like doing the 1v1 in that way is more likely to be town but I'm more likely to be wrong about that if he isn't putting up other reads that I can sift through and analyze.-

and not giving outside reads after specifically being asked for outside reads
are pretty clearly different imo.
So you think he's purposefully dodging your question?
not really intentionally? it's just that I think it takes a long time to come up with actual legitimate looking reads as scum since you don't constantly have people's alignments in your head as the game goes on, and if he's scum he knows that coming in with something mediocre is just going to get him lynched, so he might be waiting until the last minute to do them maybe well enough to save him
and I think that having legitimate reads is kind of the most readable thing you can do in the game and I'm a lot less comfortable pushing to save someone if they look like they aren't going to put anything up that might indicate that
and i kind of just want to stall until sera gets in here and if the reads are actually really likely coming from town then i can go ham on actually convincing people to not lynch him, but there's pretty clearly a point where I have to assume he's not going to bother and question whether my read on him is actually correct, especially with the amount of people that do see a scum motivation for what he's doing.-

@heartless- I get why you'd/they'd be scumreading me but I've explained my thought process here pretty much to the best of my ability, and it's not like you saying that is going to change anything at all here. Personally I'd rather you stop going on about me for so many posts when I'm clearly not going to be lynched today and probably not tomorrow either and it kind of just feels like filler content that isn't going to help anyone read either of us at this point, but I doubt you're going to change how you're playing just because I think it's potentially a way for scum to produce content with a little bit less potential for meaningful connections.-

@mollie-quote the arguments you're talking about for me (although i should have left to go do things like half an hour ago so I probably won't answer til late tonight)
are you asking why i'm not poking broseidon? he's not really giving anything to poke at, I asked him to give a read on not-you earlier and he hasn't bothered with it yet.
@heartless- I'm not trying to play coy, I'm just trying to explain why I'm doing the things I'm doing to the best of my ability, but it's a lot of explanations of gut feelings for what I've done around sera in particular so it isn't the easiest thing to actually explain. passive aggressive is probably fair, but the words I've said are how I feel about your play and changing them to be nicer would defeat the point of saying it in the first place.
