for that matter this, as a first reaction (8 minutes after your previous post on a different topic) feels scummy also

if you asked me whether I'm a viable ceejay partner or if he spewed antiassociatives with me I'd have to go reread the game because I'm town and I don't read my own associatives with dead scum
actually as town i'm very aware of what my associatives are with flipped players; it's not something i have to go reread to get a feel for most of the time
In post 1610, the worst wrote:this is tricky bc I play with friends a lot but American presidents mafia I avoided the Mom wagon as long as I could without basically claiming her partner. open 733 I dug my heels in and flatly refused to bus (only thing we did was d3 distancing between myself/ircher). can't think of anything else to talk about rn but I'm ~80% anti bus and generally fairly bad at it.
eh, fair; you hard-defended her day1 and then came up with ridiculous me/nauci/mom associative day2 and it was ... not a clean bus to say the least
In post 1610, the worst wrote:4. sure, that was somewhat exaggerated and rhetorical from me. but fmpov it's frustrating that she's only seeing points which paint me in a bad light. it's like she's processing enough to have a scumread on me but not stopping to check herself.

like i get what you're saying but your outrage here feels kinda over-the-top-y and not entirely real; it feels kinda like faked outrage

i don't think that scum!you is a small possibility; i don't think that your'e scum as strongly as ruru does but i do think it's a possibility worth considering

like i think it's easy to be confident cj slot was flipping scum if you know that he's scum if that makes sense

Just reading the thread through a couple of posts jumped out, namely his sky TR.

But you know... near end of the day.. that post on NM.. you know my policy!!
so basically because he was going to not-vote nm? because i was kinda thinking that a replacement coming in saying they were going to death-tunnel the dead player could be a way for scum!you to try to feign surrpise as his death, especially since this doesn't seem like a super strong reason to me

I'm probably taking your word for Vex being town a little here. he's low on my priorities anyway tbqh but i haven't read any posts of his and felt like "YEAH DAMN RIGHT" yet

Tbf I've skipped a lot of his posts

it seems like there's a lot of fluffy stuff and I'm getting a kinda self important/lotta clout energy but also like non nuanced 1 dimensional reads but i guess that's pretty consistent with his town meta so *shrugs*

This is true but that's more recently.

Like he posted a whole lot and townspewed and got himself townread by pretty much everyone. Then he justifiably kinda started egoposting as a result since roughly the last few pages of day 1 when he was talking about who will get NK'd.

You really think he'd get comfortable enough to do that as scum? Not the impression I got from Forest Fire.

i've said now that towards the end of d1, i was getting burnt out
i really didn't wanna keep playing the game when d1 was dragging on for 19-20 irl days.
i've been also thinking about the game a bit more since d2 started so yea, ive been a bit more lurk-ish.

Duck, I can't really reply to you or really even engage in a discussion of well as most of your explanation is hardly clear. Like I went through your ISO to try and make a response but I really don't know how to respond to the below:
"gutscum"
"guarded feeling"
"pings scummy"
"worded funny"

Let me know if you want me to comment on anything specific.

I mean for me it was awkward as well, but also the bolded was kinda what made it seem weird to me. Like there was a vc just before his post and he should have known he was hammering? Anyways just waiting for him to come back from v/la.

that's not actually a bad lynch. I don't really have a good grasp of cee's meta, but there isn't anything in his ISO that would make me change my mind about his slot.
From what I've seen, increased care for saying his opinions should be scum indicative for cee, but he seemed to be in a catchup-mode most of the time, so idrk if I should be even reading that...
I don't really have a strong read on him
I think I was also the only SR in his read-list and I think it's kinda funny, but idk if that's even AI for him
still, not a bad lynch imo... and his wagon still looks really pure :/

If I manage to come back today before EoD, I’ll post a catchup and if not, I guess I’ll do it d2
Cuz I really doubt I’ll get killed with that many people SRing me

Anyways some thoughts on the D1 lynch.

First CJ/NM wagon
ceejayvinoya (5): the worst, Creature, Almost50, ruru, skitter30 (L-2)

Second NM/CJ wagon
Not_Mafia (7): the worst, ruru, skitter30, Vex Vience, Creature, Enigma, ejjinami LYNCH

--
The wagons have largely the same characters. The first wagon was a viable lynch and tbh could have gone through.
If duck was trying to bus and then run the "but i don't bus" defence, starting both the wagons would have been the optimal play. CJ was kinda useless to the scum team, and with NM repping in, it would have been PLd before MYLO/LYLO so it was likely always a dead slot ...
Given how fast the wagons were changing, I also wouldn't put it past scum to just stay off the wagon in hopes that a counterwagon could form. Looking at the last EoD1 vc if GE is town, I would look very closely at HWS/Alonzo + BuJ.

HWS was TOWNY AF

Hws suspicion was well founded despite what you say captain hindsight. Also Im pretty sure HWS wasn't the only one sus of A50...
