stealing this from ausuka hehehe

vc:

hero(ari)
ari(hero

not voting(everyone else)

[Merlyn]

merlyn made a good point so i re-looked at the possibility of ari!scum, one which i had earlier dismissed, and found that it is possible.

I guess the main thing is that this took you like 3-6 minutes to re-evaluate. I get that if you're town you're just not confident in yourself but it really is a staggering amount of reads volatility.

Friendly reminder that it is like 17 hours to deadline. I'm flying out tomorrow morning and am not sure how online I will be in general during the day. I think I should be chilling at the airport a bit after I land so should at least have that chance. I still want to hear more from bella.

Are you going to vote now in case you can't? Bella doesn't have to answer this prod until after the deadline expires.

[Merlyn]

VOTE: Hero

[implosion]

I’ll definitely be able to at least hammer when I land (in a bit over 4 hours)

[Hero at Heart]

its amusing that you are trying to guilt trip me to manipulate me to stop pushing you while also claiming i am the most likely to be mafia.

it's very un-amusing you don't understand that i said 100000000000 times that i don't feel my reads are going to be better than 40% accurate today.

yes i will absolutely assume the person likeliest to be scum also has a high probability of being town.

[Hero at Heart]

it's kind of sad that you guys consider honesty about the fact that i don't know something to be scummy.

the scumny thing to do is to lie and say "yeah i *know* that this other person is scum, let's kill them, i'm super confident about that"

i'm literally being more honest than the average town player, and definitely more honest than in 90% of my town games, by admitting that i don't have certainty about something which i really don't have certainty about.

the joke is on everyone voting me, like for real.

[Hero at Heart]

anyway, if i actually knew who the scum is i would probably write something like "please lim ___ tomorrow", but as i really don't feel i know, i am not going to do that.

i really do hope you manage to find scum tomorrow but if i'm being honest i don't think you can

peace out

[Merlyn]

Look, I don't know if you're scum. I think there's a chance you are or I wouldn't be voting for you. But- and here's that honesty you prize, okay? I'm also voting you because if you get to the end game as town you are not, by your own admission, going to attempt to solve the game. Like, the whole point of the game is to try and find scum and you will not be doing that. I think by your words here (again, assuming you're town) that you think not solving is...noble, or something? The way you're saying "I'm being more honest than most people by saying I don't know"....okay, but none of us except scum know. At some point you have to move past the fear of being wrong and just play the game.

[Hero at Heart]

i actually have no words

do you think i'm not trying to solve???

then what the hell were all my scumcases of ari and implo about?

[Merlyn]

@mod- how does Bella's prod timer work here?

[implosion]

I’m probably gonna be pretty much v/la until monday, I’ll check in a bit and respond to stuff probably but I’m at an event all weekend and won’t have much energy to spare to think about much or dig into much until then.

[implosion]

But suffice to say for now it’s been a long time since I’ve been in 3p elo and my default inclination is that Bella is scum but I am not sure how much to weight the fact that elo is what it looks like because Bella as scum might have shot me. I think I am still inclined to think it’s Bella at a glance but I want to dig in to stuff

[Bellaphant]

I'm reading back

[Bellaphant]

This is a fucking weird elo: I was coming in ready to vote for Ari. For me, either I've been wrong the whole game, or it's just mer. I am back from my really intense tine with the kids tho, so please don't rush this elo.
