Open 624 Fire and Ice - Fire Mafia Wins

[Shinobi]

Well, it could be.
It depends on how mafia shoots.

Regardless, we're on the eve of the most important lynch in the game and you're just okay with people voting you?

[Masquerade]

Bah I can't make my mind up on Firebringer. Starting to lean town on him again. I retract my intent to hammer for now. Will look into things again tonight when I get home.

[Viva La Gloria]

Alright so fire is definitely one of

{S_S, Masq} but more likely S_S.

Ice is

{Aristo, Masq, maybe Shin}

The way S_S assumed that SS was town when he said scummy shit strikes me as scum knowing that he wasn't fire and trying to lynch the other faction here (ice) which makes me think that he's scum over Masq, plus the fact that he's just been generally scummier in general and the fact that Masq legitimately does not discuss SW at any point seems unlikely from scumpartners because I'd think they'd at least -try- to distance at some point, so the minimal contact between S_S and SW is more likely to be scum.

Aristo is still my biggest pick for ice for the reasons I've already explained but Masq also makes a ton of sense as ice.

[Viva La Gloria]

I would like to lynch in the fire pool so that I can maybe be cleared and docced tomorrow, plus there's only two real fire candidates.

Can we switch the wagon?

This is probably Fire.
Scum want a town lynch because then they will only have to get one more mislynch. Masq has never expressed a reason for townreading Fire, so I'm assuming they plan to kill him tonight.
Town-Masq would hammer Fire here most likely.

Are you not sure that I am scum anymore? Cause that is true. I am not.

Can more people vote Something Smart please?

[Shinobi]

Can more people vote Something Smart please?

...Why?

[Shinobi]

I kind of want to lynch Aristo again.

[SnarkySnowman]

I kind of want to lynch Aristo again.

...Why?

[Something_Smart]

Viva, if I were Fire why would I be trying to lynch Ice, when it would then be 4:1, rather than trying to nightkill them, leading to 3:1? Compare my push on Firebringer to Masquerade, who appears to be scumreading him but won't admit it, because they don't want to lynch Ice, and tell me how Masq is town here.

[Shinobi]

I kind of want to lynch Aristo again.

...Why?

I keep looking at how content he is to constantly say that he needs to look into things and never follows up on any of it.
He seems super content to do little.

He just seems like such a background player and he's always super happy keeping it that way, which bothers me.

[Shinobi]

Unless you only said that to mock me.
In which case, congratulations - you did it.

[SnarkySnowman]

Little column A, little column B. Now that you mention it, I would like to see some Aristo content, at least a readlist, but otherwise I'm not sure I want to lynch that.

[Firebringer]

This is actually some really good points.

[Firebringer]

Unless you of course go with opposite, that you really think I am town and pushing me because you believe it will be a mislynch.

[Viva La Gloria]

Masq, thoughts?

[Firebringer]

Viva, how do I know I can trust you?

[Viva La Gloria]

Lynching you would be optimal if I were scum because I'm fairly sure you're town now and regardless of which scum faction I would be on the other scum would be highly unlikely to shoot me.
I would have no difficulty reviving my Firebringer!Fire theory and creating false justification for it to lynch you if that's what I wanted to do without anyone batting an eyelash.
Help me lynch scum and you won't have to worry about my alignment. easy!

[Firebringer]

That story checks out.

What you would do as scum is not what I would do. I'd feel a lot more comfortable lynching the other scum so there's absolutely no chance of them killing me. I'm not as confident a player as Viva is.

What bothers me about Firebringer is how he was asking why people were scumreading Overlord, and that was based on Overlord attacking someone for hammering while he was the one placing the L-1 and Firebringer first acts like he isn't aware of anything but only a few posts later he explains to Silverwolf how in any game with ika L-2 should be considered L-1 so that shows he was actually aware of the thoughts behind the scumread on Overlord, yet he still had to ask. That's my only issue with Firerbinger, everything else makes me townread him or is null/trolly Firebringer.

[Masquerade]

I also think Aeronaut is a better player and wouldn't address his scumbuddy after replacing in only to disappear right after, but I don't know him very well so I could be wrong.

[Shinobi]

RC why is fire town?
I think I asked before but I don't remember getting an answer.
