Sudden revelations tell me Psyche is scum.

Oh, really? Not just your unwillingness to be lynched?

It'd be good to justify your vote.

[Om of the Nom]

It's a gut read my friend.

[Psyche]

I'm going to be straightforward and say that I'm pretty sure Om is town. Scum-Om would prefer to put himself up against more questionable players.

But someone has to get lynched and it ain't gonna be me.

[Staeg]

It's a gut read my friend.

Surely it still came from something, seeing as it's a sudden realization?

[Om of the Nom]

That last sentence really irks me.

PEDIT: I think it's to do with the feel of your posts. It reminds me of Open 384.

[Staeg]

And you noticed that only, what was it, 4 hours ago? What made you realize as much?

[Om of the Nom]

I don't know, I guess I wrote Psyche off as town and didn't bother to look deeper into it.

[2birds1stone]

Psyche's towniness is overstated.
My towniness is overstated.
Om's scumminess is overstated.

Amusing, we all have something in common.

Five pages is enough time for scum to send in a list, even if it is a list based on outdated information; I doubt this list is entirely random.

In fact, I doubt it's random at all, unless the scumteam is Prolapsed/Kamikrazy, there's no way scum would've put Chrimi up for today's lynch, he was pretty obviously gonna eat the lynch D1.

All three of us have been nominated for a reason. However, like NK analysis, it's probably not great to look too far into it. Scum gain a lot from WIFOMing on the nomination's system.

I'm holding my vote in the meantime, I want to iso Psyche. I wouldn't want to rule out the possibility that the three of us are town; as I said earlier, taking the game to LyLo tomorrow would be hugely advantageous for them. Having said that, there's no real reason not to nominate one or both of them for the nominations.

I still think Staeg is town. Very much town, probably the towniest person in this game.

I think there's a high chance that Prolapsed is scum, but I've never played with him before; his vote reminds me of some nasty quickhammers I've seen from townies in newbie games.

More coming tomorrow, with a vote; I gotta go to sleep now, early start tomorrow.

EBWOP: one or both of themselves

[Psyche]

That last sentence really irks me.

PEDIT: I think it's to do with the feel of your posts. It reminds me of Open 384.

Well, I am the same person, so my posts might presumably lead to some recollections. :/
You're still being vague I don't have any completed town games to compare 384 to, so there isn't more to say.

I'm not all stoked up by the idea of Om scum, to be honest. It seems today probably HAS to end in a mislynch.

I suppose I might be willing to sacrifice myself for D3, but that'd be disappointing.

What we need to do is use Today to force everyone to throw their two cents in (something missing from yesterday).

I still think Staeg is town. Very much town, probably the towniest person in this game.

Staeg hasn't really done ANYTHING, though. Where do you get a townread?

And your towniness is not overstated.

[Staeg]

Om, have you played with town-psyche?

[Psyche]

And still nothing. ^

I just said that I don't have any completed town games.

[Staeg]

Erm. That punctuation threw me off.

[Psyche]

oh, i forgot an "and".

Staeg, any opinions about your three choices?!

[Psyche]

No, psyche, 2b1s is not conftown. Omnom is very likely to be. You are quite likely to be.

vote: 2b1s

Oh, nevermind.

Could you explain the cognitive background of all this?

[Om of the Nom]

Actually now I think that scum is both Staeg and Prolapsed Brain.
Staeg's play reminds me of Vanillaside (lost in the crash) in which he was scum, also he kinda played like this in Open 383 (not lost) in which he was also scum.

[Psyche]

Okay. That contribution is equally unsubstantial.

Can you explain what about his play is like his scumplay in other games?

[Om of the Nom]

His posts give me the same feel, plus he's basically doing the same amount of stuff he did in his scum games (basicall he's not doing much at all).

[2birds1stone]

I really wouldn't say he's not doing anything. He's not doing much, but he did pounce on Psyche and Chrimi when they entered the thread without giving comment to the goings-on; he could have instead let discussion stall. He also follows up on his questions, which says that he cares about the answers. Okay, I overstated his towniness a little, but I am fairly sure of him still.

I think having Prolapsed down as such a strong scumread reeks of scum pushing the easy mislynch, Om.

Vote: Om of the Nom

I was going to say that Psyche could be scum, and well, he could, but I don't think so. The only thing that bugs me about him is that he required prodding to move his vote from Om to Chrimi.

[Om of the Nom]

Prolapsed being scum fits perfectly with the timing. That hammer was terribad, and he's said nothing all game.

Really at this stage I think all these nominees are town, so the question is who do we want in LYLO?
I would gladly volunteer to lynch myself because I have a bad record with LYLOs as town(1 out of 5 or something so far).

[2birds1stone]

I say that we proceed as if one of us is scum. My reasoning for this is that we have to kill one of us; we may as well let the most towny-looking ones live to LyLo to avoid unnecessary arguement.

[Om of the Nom]

But you're both equally scummy in my eyes.

[Psyche]

He's right. But the real problem will be having 2 lurkers live to LYLO.

Om is the scummiest of us, I am not scummy, and 2b is untouchably town. That is my thesis.

Om, how is 2b scummy and why is my theory about his alliance confirmation doubtful?

That honestly was a cognitive blip, and then trying to make something of it. :/
