Might have to use some group pressure to coerce someone into a challenge when the time is right. Can you challenge unilaterally or do both players in a pair have to do it?

Oh, it's absolutely reading too much into things, but I think thats possibly a town thing to do.

I gave a couple mild reads, I'd say that's pretty good for me by page 4. So I don't have much else yet.

I thought you might have some takes and I felt your post was a bit IIOA/posting just to post so wanted to poke at it.

How often have you played with mastina?

My soul does die inside every time I list you north of null tho. :P

Weirdness: They sussed me after STD sussed me and Ceph. That's an associative. That's a decision. It was unexplained and still is.

Would love to hear what you think the motivation might be

I'll be back later with chunkier thoughts
Still curious. I contemplated letting this go but then realised I'd look like a fool if I asked a bunch of questions without others answering them and since my primary motivator in life is avoiding embarrassment at all costs, well
Presumably it means you either townread him strongly and are imo playing badly by not letting him defend himself on the off chance you're wrong, or are partners.

Like, gamma is supposedly one of your top suspects because of this unexplained action; I have set up an alley oop for you to get answers, and you're standing there checking out the bleachers
Ngl I'm a bit baffled by you trying to instigate between these two, why not ask for yourself?
I did ask for myself. Gamma declined to answer unless furtive asked.

Limited time
Not valuing sorting your teammate.
This might be an unfair characterization as I'm making it pretty much out of my ass without checking, but this makes me think that aisa seems to be simultaneously not focused on sorting furtive yet her participation in the main thread revolves around him.

Well...something like 'fingerguns' or 'the more you know' feels a bit deadbeat, whereas Cephrir's thing about the Gold Dragons is deliberately louder so I find it less suspicious because it's asking for attention
The

Ancy-nay
Orst-way
Maybe astina-may
Less sure of ephrir-cay and uritive-fay
Really trynna open up the communal scumpool here. These are some scalding takes
I feel like this is just throwing shade whereas Gamma was actually curious and wanted to know more
I don't agree with this list. There's a chance you're right on one or maybe two just because there are 4 Mafia but none of these players are my preferred votes
Is it just me or is this a stronger reaction than you have to being accused yourself

Do you have reasons to think those players are town?

Well, that was pretty much the exact sequence of events I predicted if Nancy was town when STD mentioned suspicion of her in our PT

I have no idea what her scum game looks like but that certainly doesn't make me feel *bad* about the slot

Rest of my thoughts are as I catch up. I’ll post a few pages at a time as I read.

Post 173: This post makes me feel like Nancy doesn’t really understand the situation or mechanics of the game and I don’t think Scum!nancy stands to gain much from faking this. A part of me thinks Scum!Nancy would get help from partners for understanding the setup.

Post 182: No it did not. I’ll probably drop that weirdness as it feels like genuine confusion which is probably slightly plus town for nancy and I don’t think more can be attributed to it at this point.

Post 187 Seems to be Furtive playing dumb and trying to OMGUS. +Scum

I like 196 from Flea, I feel like it makes sense but it’s mostly mechanical.

Post 202. This feels like Scum!Furtive. Actively sorting only scum reads isn’t critically evaluating the game. That’s trying to get a miselim through. If you are reading and focusing on the game you should be looking for towny and scummy things, you don’t just actively search one or the other. Like there’s not going to be more information on something just because you ignore other things. Doesn’t make sense.

Post 213 is interesting. I think Aisa/Furtive being both scums made some sense with furtive’s weirdness on the slot, but this post really blatantly seems to say why would furtive be weird
specifically with my slot.
The natural answer I feel is saying they are partners but I don’t think scum!Aisa is this blatant about it

252 Drives an interesting point by Cephir that I think leads more into the partnership of Furtive/Aisa. Due to the high density of scum I think these kind of associatives will be many between partners so I’m partial for it. I’m surprised nobody has suggested a furtive/aisa team to this point but I suppose I haven’t had any scummy points with Aisa on her own.

253 Makes me think Flea is town. Good analysis and I’m interested in seeing if they’ve got more reads.

271 +Town for Gamma. Fairly depth read but I don’t feel too strongly about the logic myself.

Will be back later for more,

Note to self: Start next on Page 12.
But as Pharaoh's sorcerers were able to replicate this trick too, at least in part, Pharaoh remained unmoved.

Why is a poster less useful to have in the game?

Surely you want to smoke the lurkier player on principle?

And this is as if you have no read on either player, how is that possible?
Your whole line both in this post and before it assumes that I definitely want the player I'm voting for to die which is weird considering I expressly stated otherwise when I placed the vote

I do not have no read on either player and I'm not sure where you got that idea. I have stated suspicion on both of them more than once

So says me and my spirits.

There isn't a disagreement here, just a pre-emptive "meh screw it"
I'm guessing Yume suggested it in the PT and mastina said 'no that's bad', which is what I mean by disagreeing.

Meg is going to lurk no matter what I do. The worst might post if prodded. It's simple
Why is a poster less useful to have in the game?

Surely you want to smoke the lurkier player on principle?

And this is as if you have no read on either player, how is that possible?
Your whole line both in this post and before it assumes that I definitely want the player I'm voting for to die which is weird considering I expressly stated otherwise when I placed the vote

I do not have no read on either player and I'm not sure where you got that idea. I have stated suspicion on both of them more than once
Y...yes

You don't read my posts, do you?

I am voting the worst in the hopes that my vote will cause him to post more. I think meg will not post more either way. This isn't rocket science

I was waiting for one or both of them to do something, but if they're not going to, then I guess we do just have to pick. I'd have to read back because right now I don't have much reason to care either way. Maybe I would vote tw right now mainly because post 614 irritates me

To some extent but he was way more obviously scum in that. He might just be playing a lot better here. What is different is he doesn’t sound so off. It’s extremely frustrating to me. I would like Mastina or someone else to explain why Mega > duckling, since we need to pick one.
If this is "a lot better" I'd hate to see the other game

I don't think it was a serious suggestion but I don't think it's a good strategy to put blinders on from day 1 anyway. Idk about y'all but I think scumhunting in general improves from flips

If I had to expand hmm

Fleas tone is good I think fae's really scumhunting, I agree with some of faer reads and I think the linguistic analysis thing in particular vibed town

STD has a lot of thoughts about the game that I perceive as real but also has stuff he can't explain too, which feels legit to me, and I think he is not trying very hard to impress me

Nothing wrong with competing wagons. Maybe that will help on the info side too

why does this make someone town? if town were visibly winning right now i would agree with you, but in the absence of that it seems more like an individual basis thing as to what alignment those players prefer

I think Flea’s resistance to the vote is townie but it frustrates me that I can’t make faer understand why I have that read other than meta.

But yeah, really good point, why would scum!Yume paint a target on herself like that?
have you tried explaining it more in your PT than you have here? i have to be sympathetic to not getting it if it's basically just "trust me bro"

Should we switch back to duckling then? I really can’t tell which of them sounds worse to me but Mega’s ignoring the thread doesn’t look great. \_0_/
my instinct was to object to this then i actually checked to see whether meg was posting elsewhere and saw that they are and i think that might be all i need to see

Mastina I feel like your analysis right now makes more sense in a void than it does with consideration to how useless meg was. If I were on that scumteam motivation wouldn't be a factor in whether I tried to save that, it wouldn't be worth saving. My only thought would be "how do I look good off this flip, because it's happening no matter what". And I think most players would be thinking the same.

Point being, I don't think the situation precludes scum from being motivated, and that doesn't mean they'd be obligated to try for a save. They could also put motivation into power bussing, or perhaps they were motivated to try for a save but didn't get time (e.g. aisa)

I would also suggest they could have defended meg in the hopes it would look uninformed, but I don't think anyone really did that, so.

I didn't interpret the first thing as an answer it seems a lot more specific than the general statement you initially made but I guess it can be an answer

But you have put forward a leading theory and I would like to know what has caused you to have that thought process

You seem to expect cohesive thought processes from me, can I get the same from you

In post 917, Aisa wrote:@STD To me, the fact I've found it hard to engage / have useful thoughts on your posting is proof that maybe you haven't been as attention getty as you claim. My theory is that if you are scum, your strategy is to check in once a day, make a couple posts, throw a little shade, then slink out before you attract too much attention.
Is this not merely proof that you aren't paying that much attention? i don't think this is an even remotely fair characterization of std's posting. i'm not convinced he is definitely town, but he has definitely not been afraid to make a splash. this is some BS

Now that I skimmed your ISO again, I see you dropped your suspicion of Nancy pretty quickly. I remember now, that was one of the things that felt sussy at the time.

One moment you were like "Hmm Nancy's tone is scummy" and 5 hours later you were like "nvm Nancy may be town now". Actually now that I think about it this might be town-indicative. But I don't think you get credit for attacking someone who defends herself fiercely, because it was a pretty tame and short lived attack.
he does get credit for that actually. based on my experience with nancy, if town she is definitely liable to perma-scumread someone for briefly suspecting her

I don’t think it’s a relevant assumption unless you think both Nancy and ceph can be scum
are you implying that this is not possible? i don't see why that would be particularly unlikely fypov

wait what didn't you just say STD was a nullread and then that you wanted to townread him after your interaction how did this happen it's a pretty janky forced push too

Right now I'm wanting Silver Snakes and Green Monkeys to face off. I feel it could be an interesting situation.

You definitely need some poking at some point, MegA needs to show face and follow through on what they were doing - as does Quaxley. Mastina needs to show up and do what she does.

If it was a free elimination I'd be sat on Aisa right now.

An annoyingly large pool of sus, admittedly, but we have time.
our view of the universe is dead ass the same except that I have rly low interest in fighting the monkeys lol
Since I pretty much bet the game on Gimli!scum here, this looks like a possible associative with your team and I think STD looks townier than you and your Flea!read looks quite pockety.

How do you NOT get ellitell from that? If a player hasn’t posted anywhere onsite, how can it be obvious they’re not responding to it?

That’s why I switched to Mega after Flea pointed that out and duckling hadn’t ellitold and but know that’s not how she’d react as town.

I extremely confident we would have gotten a scumflip either way now.
oh, sure, i guess that makes sense, i interpreted not responding as meaning just not posting at all

is any of them your partner?

I could painstakingly respond to furtive since his points are largely not very good or rely on an assumption that all town players think the way he does, but it seems like a waste of time

The fact my play is everywhere and by votes I think I'm currently the most sus person here?
It is a lot on vibe, I'm used to having clashed with you once or twice at least by this point.


Anyway, 2 down, they must really be demotivated. :/
I don't really do "by votes"

I'm trying to be gentler this game on purpose since I don't actually enjoy butting heads with people

Ceph didn’t hammer you, he put you to E-1. 6 votes are needed to elim not 5

And Flea, me, Yume, STD, Ceph only equals 5.
I'm starting to doubt you're town, Nancy. What's the point of saying this? Did I say I was hammered, or am I just resigning to my circumstances?

Here's something concrete. This post. This post is why I townread her. You said you played with her, Flea, so you should know that she makes this kinda post as town. If you don't, then either we have vastly different experience with her or you refuse to see it, in which case it's on you.
You're townreading her for having a plan where she herself survives to endgame, which is exactly what scum would need in this situation, and it flies in the face of everyone's reads but yours to think it's remotely realistic

Because that's what your argument against her implies.
i think it's possible to be ill and subconsciously let that affect your posting more than it would if you were town who's enjoying the game

Like, significantly less likely.

Flea's posting is more town and Flea challenged/voted Gimli, so like. Unless the plan is to out-duel Yume in a 1v1 during lylo I don't see Flea's path to victory here as scum, so
probably
town?
Fae seems obvious town to me and has done for a bit, but it seemed like you quite determinedly kept faer in your poe - part of my scumread on you is that your reads have felt quite stale since gamestart
i haven't painstakingly checked whether it's true that mastina's reads are stagnant, but that is a meta scumtell for her, she probably won't deny this
