Hi guys! I'm caught up.

[Bellaphant]

And? Thoughts?

[Postie]

I think I understand the town motivation behind what Severa's doing, but the problem I'm having with it is that it's a decent play for scum too; waiting until both daykills have been used means no one will question why Severa is still alive.

I'm more than content with being lynched and given a vengekill.

VOTE: Severa

I'm not sure I like the timing of the self-vote here because I doubt Severa would actually be okay with being lynched

right now

, even if they would later, so it feels more like it's for show.

[Blue Yoshi]

kind of agree with bellaphant's vote, unfortunately I don't trust the person making it.
Oh well, let's take them one at a time.

VOTE: heuristically

[Blue Yoshi]

I'll excuse it for early game confusion, especially over all the Severa nonsense, but I want to see if heur has anythig to say.

...is it for fence sitting? Like, that's part of the equation, not the overall answer.

[Blue Yoshi]

The vote was more to prod some sort of response out of heur, but the fact that they already have 3 votes meant it wasn't entirely necessary.

I'll give you that it probably wasn't necessary to unvote either, but eh.

By the way, are you bandwagoning acryon's reasoning?

[Postie]

By the way, are you bandwagoning acryon's reasoning?

Who's this addressed to? Also, what?

[Bellaphant]

Also, blue, you said you don't trust me....

that was a call to engage with me about why. Unless you were faking a read, of course....

[heuristically_alone]

Postie, who did TheDominator vote as judge on both times?

[Bellaphant]

also, a response? HA is the second top poster.

Calling bs.

VOTE: blue

[heuristically_alone]

The only one that has really explained their vote for me is acryon. Others just followed. @Bellaphant, why the vote for me?

And the only reason for acryon's vote for me was because he didn't like the fact that I misunderstood what the open setup was.

[heuristically_alone]

Ok, you just changed your vote @Bellaphant, but still curious about the vote for me

[Blue Yoshi]

Top post doesn't mean a whole lot when 6+ of them are off-topic or not-substantive.
Same goes when you've made few substantive posts, and a vote with no explanation. Hence why I asked if you were BWing their reasoning.

[Postie]

Guys, when we decide who we think is scum and needs to die, do you think it would be best to lynch the second scummiest player first and have that person venge our scummiest pick?

First pick is scum and we lynch our second pick and they're town and venge our first = we've basically brought the next day's lynch forward one to stop scum getting a free kill
First pick is scum and we lynch our second pick and they're scum and venge a townie = we're no worse off than if our first pick was scum and we lynched them
First pick is town and we lynch our second pick and they're scum and venge a townie = idk, that sounds bad and we probably want to avoid it
First pick is town and we lynch our second pick and they're town and venge our first = idk, but scum didn't get an extra kill so it's not so bad
