What does Pine's last post have to do with Beck's voting and unvoting?


I don't like that you seem to be ignoring the actual content of Pine's last post

Alright, I'm here

For the record, I have two jobs. One is part time retail at a book store, with light hours, that I actually find relaxing. The other is as an emergency medical technician on an ambulance. That schedule is neither light nor relaxing.

This week I will log more than 75 hours between those two jobs, not counting more than half a dozen hours commuting (the station I've been working out of this week is the next city over.) I've also had several emergency dentist and oral surgeon visits, as one of my wisdom teeth is in the process of crumbling, bit by bit. The remainder of my scarce free time has been taken up with family obligations and wedding prep-work.

That said, this is one of only two active games that I'm in that I'm still alive in, so I should be able to get back in this pretty efficiently. We've got a little less than a week, let's get to work

Now, can someone explain to me how and why Grib goes from 'nearly everyone wants to lynch' to a point where I'm the only vote left?

Can't speak for others. PoE says there must be scum in {Grib, you}. As a consequence, I'd be fine with voting either. Out of policy, I'm more willing to vote you.

BBT's PoE absolutely sucks and I'm beginning to think he's the last scumpartner.

I mean, I've come to similar conclusions (Grib and BBT), but I like my reasons. Your PoE seems really arbitrary

I seriously don't get why you continue to tunnel Beck when the game makes 0 sense with him flipping scum.

@Pine: See my wallpost if you want to see my reasons. Voting patterns have ruled out quite a bit of pairs, if you want to ask me about any specific pair, go ahead.
Basically, Beck's not scum with anyone, and BBT isn't scum with FinnLaw's slot. That means one of you and Grib is scum.

Remaining players are Scripten, Beck, BBT, Grib, Pine, fferyllt.

Scripten is practically confirmed town.
You look town on top of the game not making sense with you as scum.
BBT is not scum with Finn's slot. Finn's slot and by extension fferyllt only makes sense as scum with either Grib or Pine.

That's all it takes, haha.

No no, I see your wall post. I understand what you're saying. I just find it arbitrary and really haphazard. You've eliminated some people for really flimsy reasons. Scripten, for example - I think he's Town based on behavior, you seem to have eliminated him based on alleged role, despite the fact that Mafia Neighborizers exist. You've got to constantly reassess Townreads, not eliminate them for one thing and never look at them again. That's how good scum operates, with some carefully Town-looking stuff that causes people to forget them

PE: my point exactly

I'm trying to decide if there's any reason to think you're really this naive about scum-pair behaviors.

I believe they already stated that he's not a neighbouriser.

Regardless, if you'll check back to the end of D1, I recall saying Scripten was probably town seeing what he was doing with me as a reaction test. He was in my townlist before Beck 'confirmed' him. It's just easier to say he's town due to his role than because ~reasons~.

What other flimsy reasons?

This is based on what? Your opinion? Or do you have solid facts/evidence for why this simply cannot be impossible?

What you're saying is, because
you
find it unlikely that Beck is scum, that
I
should also find it unlikely, because
you
don't think Beck can be scum with anyone else?

Yeah, am not buying what you're selling. I think Beck is scum, I would like him lynched.

I still don't get how that's PoE either. It's not like everybody else is town and you and Beck are scum. One of you is scum, I can't work out which one it is.

Once I know, it makes finding the second scum much easier.

Let's entertain the crazy possibility that Beck could be scum.

He 'finds out' that Scripten is town somehow. Scripten is practically conf town to everyone. In turn, Beck seems to be universally town-read, and I feel that it has a lot to do with what has happened between Scripten and himself.

Now, Beck has this town-cred, Beck or his buddy kills Scripten. Scripten flips town!, Beck gains more town-cred for confirming Scripten as town and proceeds to breeze through the game.

How does that sound?

All of them, really. Beck is the only one you seem to eliminate based on persistent behavior criteria

PE: No, Beck is pants-on-head Town. He's way less squirrelly as scum, and doesn't tunnel nearly as bad

Beck and Grib voted together on multiple occasions, in some cases within a few posts of each other (, ).

FinnLaw changed his mind very fluidly and naturally when it came to Beck. fferyllt's posting on Beck doesn't ping, and she even pointed out a potential scumslip from him. This would be dumb if they were partners.

You already pointed out how you don't think Beck and I are partners.

Beck and Pine's interaction at doesn't look like scum and scum. If you look at Pine's ISO, his peacekeeping when it came to Beck was very much not a scum/scum interaction. I admit this is more gut than not. However, the possibility of Beck/Pine still fits with my "one of Grib and Pine is scum".
Regardless of course, I've got a townread on Beck ALONG WITH all this.

Edit: My townread on Beck since my rereading of the game has very little to do with the Scripten issue.
Edit2: Okay, point them out.

- You're assuming scum never vote one after another
- You're also assuming scum don't point out their partners scum-slips. Here's the thing, it's very, very difficult to get people to believe a genuine scum-slip has occured (from personal experience), they usually brush it off as 'Scum-slips very rarely actually happen' or something along those lines. Therefore, it would have been safe for Ffery to point this out I feel.
-Yeah, it's not like Pine would try to stop his partner from getting lynched, right?
