I think Titus-scum means Vex-town and probably bulge-town too tbh.

So it’s one of the rest of you!

Prove your innocence!

Rawr!

(Or idk I don’t really know what to say. I don’t know which of you is scum but maybe I will soon!)

Bellaphant/Stranger feels like a good lim pool for today at least

What are your thoughts on Mala?

VOTE: Malakittens

I feel comfortable doing this given the D1 scum flip. My vote is based solely on the (1) post that Malakittens has made in the neighborhood we have, where she stated that she believed the last scum to be in DV/Vex/Bulge given Titus's iso. This is written under the assumption that it's not just Titus's iso.

For DeasVail, I find it fairly hard to believe that someone would believe scum writing this about their partner:

VOTE: Vex

I admit to skimming. I like Bulge Stranger and StD as town.

Major reservations on Mala and Bella

Vex is my first player with a post that pinged me

Meg is gtmh town.

DV is null but I should have an opinion. I just don’t.

Because it is so blaringly obvious in how it's written. Everyone else gets an opinion but... Titus doesn't even lump her partner somewhere else, just shrugs at him says "yeah, no clue what my read is there lol" and goes about her business? That doesn't feel like the read a partner gives another. I find it curious that Mala suspects DV also because of 264, where DV has both myself and Mala as scumreads. I think I might be reading into this part too much but because we're neighbors I wonder if Mala was trying to get me to consider it or something like "Oh, DV is bad, let's get him."

This is... on the tinfoil end of things, though. Because there was literally just the listed partners and no reasoning.

For Vex/Bulge, I can see this making a little more sense. Titus was a lot more thorough in her opinions there, but even then it feels a bit out of the loop. This is actually a point towards Mala being town too, as I think scum might be a little more cognizant of what was going on EOD rather than jumping back to the basic wagons that formed most of D1. But it's still like, well, maybe she doesn't realize that, or wants to drill down on the idea that Titus was bussing/defending a partner and that's why she put in the effort there. If this is the case I lean towards Bulge being the potential partner out of the two, I think that it makes more sense to try and bruteforce through a town!Vex rather than hellbus a scum one. Even then though... eh? Maybe?

I'm aware that Malakittens is relatively inactive in games. However, I asked for an explanation for her reads and didn't get one, so... I feel like I have to put her through the wringer here. I want to know why she thinks those three are most likely to be scum.

My other option for scum right now is Bella, but I feel a lot less strong about that versus Mala, currently.

Also, no one else out their neighborhoods, please.

This is awful mainly from the stranger read. What on earth makes u think scum there?

Thanks Stranger! I know it can feel risky to out a neighbourhood but I think this is helpful.

I hadn’t even really thought about that Titus quote posted regarding reads. I more thought that a world where I as Titus’ scum partner push the wagon as I did would be… very unnecessary. Vex-town is because Titus pushed the vex wagon over the bulge wagon when otherwise vex wouldn’t have been in much danger, however with Titus jumping on there was a real risk of vex being eliminated as compromise. Bulge-probably-town is because I felt that the bulge/Titus banding together was too obvious. They did not even really try to have reasons to townread each other where I think scumbuddies would have been more cognisant of that.

Regarding Bella’s post re: Stranger, I think Stranger was a very viable scum candidate going into this day, but the post on Mala is proactive enough that I’m not going to focus on Stranger-scum

[Vex Vience]

still moving; acknowledging i’m alive.
bulge probably just town imo

[Malakittens]

I have also hydrad with Titus a lot and I can definitely see her lumping her partner in a Null spot

I can also see her trying to push another wagon to save her partner on D1

Hence why those two are on my scum pile

I also believe stranger can potentially be town for that post

Also weekends are bad for me lmao I’m usually on VLA for them lately

The view of the game and analysis seems very surface-level

[Malakittens]

It is what it is.

[Malakittens]

There’s really not a lot of information to be made tbh

[Malakittens]

Mega is prob town btw

This might be true but your scum pool seems to have been determined by the thought of “Titus might do this as scum”, when the fact is, Titus didn’t do very much and based purely on Titus’ posts, pretty much anyone except vex could be scum, yet your reads don’t appear to be based on anything else, from what you’ve said.

[Vex Vience]

some small thoughts as i lay in bed:
@meg - why those two people? i can see bella, but sell me on stranger
@stranger - i skimmed your post, do you think mala is scum then?
@bella - why is meg scum pool bad mainly from proposed stranger!scum and not you!scum?
@mala - that’s a bad take with there being a flipped scum, me v bulge d1, wagon off bulge by dv, and just going “yea based off me hydraing with titus, scum!titus might do this” - think of something more
@dv - I don’t have anything i wanna say to you really; i think you’re just town here and that’s about all i got

[Vex Vience]

also

@mod - idk if i said v/la until today, but i will be v/la today too

[The Bulge]

never have i been pocketed so fast before lol. ill be around later today

[Bellaphant]

@vex, I know I'm not a Shining example if town. But stranger is. It also seems a weird combi to pick?

[Bellaphant]

I don't really like that you find vex and bulge unhelpful

That makes sense if Bella is townreading both slots.

I'm too lazy/distracted to check while I'm temporarily pulled over.

I should've been so much more concerned by this post

[MegAzumarill]

Bellaphant/Stranger feels like a good lim pool for today at least

Malakittens can be added here.

I didn't think scum would be on the Titus wagon based on how it formed so late in the day nor would Titus vote with their partner like they were with bulge. I did forget Mala was on the wagon since start of day 1 and could be scum

[Bellaphant]

I think Titus-scum means Vex-town and probably bulge-town too tbh.

So it’s one of the rest of you!

Prove your innocence!

Rawr!

(Or idk I don’t really know what to say. I don’t know which of you is scum but maybe I will soon!)

I feel this leaves me with a lim pool of meg and mala, with STD as a rank outsider .
