I'm not going to signal to scum I have a PR role either like be serious. I didn't expect to be checked because I traditionally am a player who dodges investigatives (despite being a good target for them lol)

right
ok
No matter how high the stakes, sooner or later you're just gonna have to go with your gut.
And maybe, just maybe, that'll take you right where you were supposed to be.

They're never wiggling out of this today and if they ever have a chance to, I VOW to not let it happen. I already said in the hood I wanted Koba dead in D3 as soon as I saw the quickhammer.

How is it antitown Ausuka?

If Koba flips scum we can look back to what they said today and how other slots reacted to the guilty, and if they ever flip town for some miraculous mod troll, we can also look back to today.

Even if we kept mostly thumb twiddling for another week I think that would still be pro-town because more content no matter how small it is, is always better in this somewhat inactive game I think.

I think the unique argument for it to be anti-town is because it could generate "apathy" but really, a red flip would surely get us more motivated again in the next day anyway. A town flip even more considering how shocking it would be.

The bottom contributors of this game by amount of posts so far are Freedom, Xof, DGB and Mastina.

If possible, I would very much like for each of them to utilize this time and give us a full readlist with some explanations for why the slots are placed the way they're.

I think it's also fair game if you assume Koba is confirmed scum in your readlist and build it up from that perspective.

Also, we want something to discuss? Alright.

If we're all so confident Koba is scum, why not assume this is already D4 and Koba flipped Mafia Multitasking Roleblocker already?

What slots would we be interested on pressuring in that likely scenario?

Koba I also recommend you if ever town to stop trying to save yourself from a elimination and focus more on dunno, leaving a legacy solve or so?

I think it's a certainty that we're voting you today to solve this "tension" but that's only worst scenario for you if scum, if town although it's not a good hand to be dealt, it's still possible for you to work towards something meaningful for tomorrow.

I don't think you're town but just saying. No one is gonna buy the narrative of leaving a multitasking alive today...trying to "prove" you're town would neither work or be helpful contribution for tomorrow.

Though it's mainly because of that quickhammer as I feel like Koba could very well be bussed rn.
On the other hand, Koba and DV's interactions don't really look aligned.
Who fits with me then?
I'm not sure but I guess mastina could be bussing you.

Though, mastina is kinda nullscum for me and it was her result that kinda put the nail in your coffin.
As it would've been easier for you to survive if it wasn't known you were Multitasking.

I wasn't going to bother but seeing Shirou stirring things up for "content" looks to me like a strategy to distract players and make them focus on a shiny new object that is not Koba.

So right now I am changing my mind and am scumreading Shirou.

How 'bout dat, kitty kat?

Also putting mastina in the list of bottom contributors?

CLEARLY this isn't based on word count.

I do have thoughts on this but was hesitant to do this while Koba's still alive, partly because of the (probably very unlikely) town-koba scenario, but mostly because I wasn't necessarily sure I wanted scum knowing where I'd be going. This is probably OTT caution on my part though, so if enough people are wanting discussion today I'm happy to share my Koba-scum-world thoughts.

kinda..lol?

lmao, even?

If I'm scum here I always bus Koba because it's literally inevitable so why risk my slot that is being massively town read for a partner that is going down? Especially when I would have already "bussed" Koba multiple times in the past days.

However I was aware I was probably gonna be accused of this anyway, it was within my "calculations", so I'm just smiling.

The reasonable explanation on why I'm doing all this is because I'm not losing the opportunity to see more SvS interactions, direct or indirect, when I'm not too sure who would be scum with Koba if we flipped them right now.

Well I took a quick look at Activity Overview, and considered whether I should include Mastina or not given she was closer to Mala/DV levels of activity, but off the top of my head I didn't remember a lot of instances I got deep insight on her reads besides Arko/Koba/Mala, so I also want to hear more from her if possible

shrug i see what you're saying i think but i think apathy/'twiddling your thumbs' is likely to just lower energy levels for the town even more

I also just think koba's posting today is likely to be calculated to screw with us if they're scum and i am not particularly inclined to read into it
