Also how do you feel about Jack's post and FF's post having extreme similarities? Do you think it's a coincidence or do you think there could be something there?

I'm with you on TS being very inconsistent. There are a few posts that really stand out to me and you touched upon some of them as well. I'll go and find them.
Maybe I can get some traction on this o.O

I'm not actually sure. I didn't really notice the similarities and I wouldn't particularly read into it since jack is giving me the impression that he was somewhat trolling with his post. Either way, it sounded extremely fake to me and I think he's a pretty good lynch target. Not the best one today though.

He attacked me in a very odd manner, coming to form very concrete views based off of "reasons," and he wasn't expecting to run into a PR. He spazed and went completely off the rails. He knew that the only thing he could do was fully commit and scortch earth. That way you, Radiant, could come in all calm and be like
"yo, I'm chill, let's not fight, bygones right?"


Nope.


The slot is toxic and needs to hang
. The slot will not be a nk target now because of the wifom it creates. I will be cleared eventually, this slot won't until we hang it.

Here, I'll try.

RadiantCowbells what else would you say here? I mean you wouldn't come into the game and be like
"oh ya guys woo I'm scum."
You popped in and insulted the town and then was adamant about the slot not being scummy at all. Attack the people and make them doubt themselves and they'll never suspect you, right?

Nope.


You're scum.
That slot is poison and you know it.
You're drenched in it and the way I see it, either that slot drags you down now or it drags one of us down at night.

I'll bold and underline the similarities I see. The first similarity is more about putting words into RC's mouth. and just the tone of it, not necessarily the content as the other 2 similarities are.

Who would be a better person to lynch today then? I'm working on that TS post by the way, I'm just at work so it'll be slow moving. What specific inconsistencies do you see in TS?

RC is RC. Mixed feelings about him, but him thinking he should be read as obvtown is shitty.

That Frozen Angle cosplay was bad tho. Git gud.

If you read my ISO you'll probably find everything I currently have to say about TS. Nothing new comes to mind

I had the same initial reaction to JackChaos but it was intended as a joke? which steals the bite of my scumread on that slot.
JackChaos why do you think that I'm scum?

Also yes my slot is obvtown and I say that as the poster child of hyper aggressive scum play making scum intent. Toto could not and would not have pulled that off as scum and it shouldn't take a genius to figure that out.

I also think that a TS lynch isn't bad despite what I've said about toto + TS. I think that he is now acting independently scummy enough. I just don't think people will listen to me.

See that entire read feels off to me. I ask you again: why do you think that TS would
absolutely
not have white knighted my slot? In fact it seems like a perfect slot to white knight.

The whole debacle provokes different enough reactions among different people that there's virtually no chance that he gets called out for having townread my slot and it's not like he made a massive effort to derail my slot's lynch.

Yeah I'm reconsidering on that read.

I feel like Nydus might be chainsawing the fuck out of the Moogin slot but I liked one of Moogin's response.

But jesus that 'YOU'RE JUST RANDOMLY VOTING BETWEEN THE TWO... EXPLAIN' quote was super, super scummy and out of left field.

Nydushermain I was going to go through and make a post but it's basically the same thing that you were saying. TS at first saying "I don't want newbies following me" then "we can just lynch fykus" and "please sheep tyvm". I'm guessing it's mainly because TS had better scum reads on fykus and myself, so I don't think it's as scummy as I initially thought. TS (I think) did also say tones shift throughout the game so I think I was reading too much into it.

RC, why would Jack be making joking posts when he hasn't been making many other posts? I think he could've been joking as well, but what would be the purpose in that?

Did it not strike you as odd at all? That within the span of the whole argument between your slot and FS, he swapped back and forth between two people with no real good reasons, inconsistent at best?

Agreed but it sounded fake regardless and if that's his only contribution after not having posted in a whole...

I eman I don't super townread TierShift but that seemed reasonable enough. If he suddenly has my support on Moogin and I threw a lot of fuel on that fire I can see why he would revote her.

To me, it doesn't seem like he cares who gets lynched. He's just throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks. To me, this seems like opportunistic mafia play.

Humor me on this: what's your read on both Fykus and MooginSoosy and can I get as much detail as possible?

I'm liking moogin more as the day goes but I'm still open to hearing a case on her. My initial and somewhat persisting scumread can be found in an earlier post, similar to yours. I'm on my phone so I can't give you more detail and it'll take you less effort to find my post than for me to find it and quote it.

Fykus I'm not sure on. I've tried to form an opinion on him but his posts just seem so bare and weak.

That won't happen until I get home to my computer but remind me if I come back and haven't done so.
