Yeah idk Alisae I’m on page 15 right now and every mandate post is like….man that’s a really town process. I just don’t see scum even considering “oh I have to skirt around this overarching concept because even mentioning it could potentially invalidate catching scum in a strategy with a potentially large flaw”
The potentially parts are particularly notable to me since I often find myself setting slots up with a scum expectation and form a better read on whether they meet or move away from that expectation but that’s on a grander scale.
RC is actually one of the handful of players I was saying could reasonably do this as scum.
Idk if whether Mandate is RC or not is important to your read, if it is i could explain my reasons for thinking it's RC. But either way i don't like to BoP ppl just because they are good at scum.
I looked at the freedom "wagon" but that's just a Taly led wagon that you and Key sheeped, dont see any issue with the wagon itself or the reasons atm.

I just think she feels on that "meh" spot where scum may be, her posts are fine at face-value but I don't feel much of a desire of solving the game from her
She's "just there" and I've increasingly become aware that a lot of the time scum are "just there"
i mean i think this is a fine read and it actually applies a lot to my thoughts on sakura
So here's the thing with Dannflor, his "she's just there" reasoning for voting me doesn't hold much when i've already said im reading and posting in bursts and back in day 1 there was not much going on when everyone seemed to be done with the day and just wanted the flip, so i feel like this is an unfair assesment of my play and not in good faith.

i dont understand the emphasis on reading
dunn
either. it just feels like an excuse to pivot toward fight or doubt an objectively town-centric slot, nothing about
dunn
is actionable from a town POV rn
What does
actionable
mean?
We can't vote or flip
Dunn
ourselves
We can't vote
mercy/fight
yet
Most we can draw is pre-flip associatives or anti-associatives

because I mainly had a ping from them wanting to vote onto

but stuck with

, and the

Flip did virtually nothing for their POV which I had trouble believing

hello
my wim is low. mostly because of the stuff talking about my previous slot person.
and i dont think anyones poes are really morphing here in a way that i can see. it felt like freedom was a reasonable candidate yesterday and well. here we are.
flipped and my confidence that this is scum is reasonable independent of previous failures
i either end this game with a bunch of cracked eggs on a clown mask that i wear
or a town win

2051 seems a bit unlikely to come from scum, the admission to a shallow read, telling someone else they're probably correct on poijnts they don't seem to have examined, and looking at
ydra
again based off recent votes doesn't seem like a progression an informed thought would make.

unless "a bit" is not enough and that made you change your mind?
Read
Freedom's
D2 ISO and tell me if you think that can be town -- in any world -- their POV is a quick vote on a wagon that flipped town and they are only fluff right now.
That fits the profile of scum very well I feel

For what it's worth, I wasn't pushing you because of
RC
at all. (I just mentioned the idea I had)
Furthermore, I find it very curious that
Freedom
was becoming a wagon yesterday and there is LESS enthusiasm about it now, which I find very bizarre

I don't always care about giving a deep dive on my votes and the nuances behind them.
People should come to their own conclusions to feel the most confident about the situation.

"Idk"
i think freedom has a decent chance of flipping wolf but i dont know beyond that
whatever i felt about dunn is gone now and im kind of over the idea of going deeper there when dunn dies anyways and i dont think that people will be swayed away from sparing in like... any world we have
i think taly is town
i think sakura is townyish
i think youve had a decent intro to the game
everyone else is in the slurry of reads
yeah i dont have strong objections. if im honest i dont feel good about it on a deep level but i dont feel good about many elims before they happen
idk how wolves are treating it, i guess if they flip wolves they probably are bussing rn given momentum
it doesnt feel like there's a real counterwagon that could happen other than maybe me but i have my defenders
