To elaborate on some things, Molla was high profile in the death of three scum, of which only one was the direct result of his push, rather than him clinging to somebody else's.
Vedith was my push, unless you want to call Dav's 'activity-based' read something to inspire momentum. I accept that I misread him, and there's not a lot I can do about that. Whatever. I jumped off, and stayed off even after Molla was obviously convincing everyone that he was Town. Molla stayed on through thick & thin, and got lots of Towncred for being the survivor in a high profile confrontation with scum.
Meanwhile, I supposedly hard-bussed my buddy, and jumped off just in time to avoid credit. Which sounds more like scum?
The best part is, I basically outright told Molla in the neighborhood QT that my vote was essentially contingent on him giving me the reads I"d been pestering him for since literally forever. It was a nothing vote, me begging for reassurance, and I was wondering why I even bothered very shortly after I placed it. There's a reason why I thought he was overplaying at the time. He just did a darn good job of smoothing things over in the QT. He basically convinced me that he was using his personal frustration to his advantage, and that I had just misread it. (Being Molla, he gave the technical details quickly, and sharply.)
I'm not going to mince words. The fact that he's scumreading me for that is ridiculous.
Kaito was someone he started scumreading right as he was about to be lynched. The only mention of Kaito in our thread prior to that was me basically saying "meh", and Molla just went along with that. THen, suddenly, with Molla about to die, Kaito was the scummiest of all scum.
Meanwhile, again, I vote to help push the lynch forward, and unvote to see a few things play out between Titus & MS. This was after it became clear that Kaito was obviously dying in the near future, and was everyone's suspect. Again, I'm supposed to have helped create momentum, then abandon it just in time to miss the Towncredit again.
And again, I told Molla this was not a serious unvote, but I wanted to watch people primarily for next phase. To his credit, he didn't push this, but he sure didn't seriously push to defend me.
Note how he always appears at just the right time to defend himself every time, and lets everything else go to heck until then. I was supposed to be one of his strongest Townreads, and he never did a darn thing until I started pressuring him about it.
The Titus flip was mine hands down, and at a time when she had much more Towncred than me, and was borderline invincible. Molla was also hard-pushing me away from lynching her when I was starting to scumread her, to push me in favor of Dav.
What did she do that looked like being buddies with me again? She was always pushing me until I was suddenly on the table, and it appeared that I had flaked the site. Do you think she'd be any more cautious of bussing me than she was in bussing Kaito? Why was she so afraid to put an actual vote on me, when, if I was a scumbuddy, I would have appeared to have given up?
Titus was scum. Titus did the only smart thing to do. She lynched Kaito in a heartbeat. Do tell me how that was supposed to go any other way? Do you really think I'm such an idiot?
Fun fact? I was yelling in the Neighborhood QT that Molla needed to get in there & push Titus too. I gave him a lot of credit when showed up, but the fun thing is, I'm pretty sure Elbirn had already switched votes.
I don't deny I've sucked this game, but at least I've stood up for my reads. Molla is just lurking & sniping in where appropriate. It's good, and I'm not going to lie, this read is mostly PoE coupled with this darn push. Just, the thing is, I'm pretty sure on Elbirn & Fire at this point, if only because of how hard Titus pushed them both.
Tell me how ScumVyse beats this wall again, hmm?
I hope you'll at least do this one stupid thing. One last chance, please? #BlatantAppealsRTown#Town4Ever
