This is scary in any number of ways. First that you think you can sort ABR's play. I can't imagine being able to do that. Second, that you think we should trust you enough to do it. But I'm looking forward to your ABR reads anyway.In post 62, Teapot wrote:So people stop voting ABR and start voting Astinus, I'll sort ABR's play later. I'm familiar with it.
This is the second time you've said this. Might you possibly share some of those early reads and clues with the rest of us?In post 55, Astinus wrote:Hi. Welcome to Open 587. I think we're still in RVS but possibly getting some early reads.

Re: the venge kill
I certainly will give my opinion on who to venge kill, but ultimately it will be the lynchee's decision, and no amount of discussion will change that.-

I see 2 credible cases, Morgan's on Teapot and Arch's on Vettrock. Both, it seems, are mostly for posting a lot without posting a lot of content. It's hard to disagree with either one. I'm definitely glad that Arch stepped up and explained his vote on Vettrock. I'm leaning much more to the town side on him now. And I'm leaning town on Morgan, as well. I don't like Teapot's sudden vote on ABR, the leading wagon atm, with only the explanation that ABR doesn't look like town. And there's not much in Vett's posts to like.
I do, however, wonder if we are not lynching the loud, and letting the quiet scum slip by. With three scum, I'd almost guarantee that at least one of them is in the quiet pile. We have several players I have no read on at all. I forgot Slimer was even playing. And TheCow? I've got nothing from him at all. Zmpf we've seen a little more from and doesn't really worry me at the moment. SupZero was very quiet until I voted for them, and then they suddenly started posting and sheeped onto the Vettrock wagon. ABR is expectedly quiet, but jumped on the Vett wagon.
I like the cases on Teapot and particularly on Vett, but we've got some time left and I'd like to see to see more.

Did I really just read that.
And why Cow in particular?
In post 168, Morgan wrote:You say you like the cases, but you are deliberately trying to pass off the scummy people as simply loud instead of scum.
Walk me through your post.
It was more of a current reads list. I guess I was not very clear. I was trying to specifically say that I liked the cases and wasn't trying to argue against them and in fact will probably come back to voting for one. But quiet people make me more nervous than loud people, and here are the people who seem to be slipping under the radar and my thoughts on them. Cow, in particular, because of 98 where he said he had more to say, but was waiting for others to chime in before saying it.-

Texcat, do you see any similarities to his scum game with you?
I'm way too lazy to read old games. My gut read from my memory is still town rather than scum. But I've said that I find him difficult to read; I didn't see that much difference in his scum game to his town game or to this game. They are are similar. You were the one who said you could sort him.In post 72, texcat wrote:

I've got think it almost always hurts town. Scum are going to wagon someone who is not likely to kill them. It's one of the reasons Teapot got raised on my scum list. She's been changing her suspicions, and I think it's to avoid lynching someone who will revenge kill her or another scum.

Teapot is NOT a new player(see post 107). If you're townreading her based on that bad assumption, you're wrong.-

It's not the fluff posts that bother me. It's the lack of other posts. It's the lack of opinions on people. And in particular there's no vote. Sitting on the sidelines waiting to see which way the wind is blowing? Looks like scum to me.-

Catching up...
First, it bothers me that Teapot is so insistent that an ABR flip will confirm Teapot's alignment. (330 374) I don't like it one bit. It sounds too much like scum bussing for the town cred to me. It's hard to believe that they are both scum, but I'm not going to be rushing to put Teapot on my town list in any case.

If I voted ABR, it would only be so he could shoot one of the people fencesitting between him/Teapot because I sincerely doubt that both wagons are scum, and the people who are insinuating that they are are the scummiest players thus far.
Ebwop.
If I had to vote between the wagons right now, I'd vote Teapot over ABR unless giving Albert the vengeshot is our goal here, which isn't actually that bad of a plan imo.
Very bad plan. Better plan: let's just lynch the person that ABR would have killed. We can kill them without having a dead ABR in the middle.

Same question to Albert, Teapot, and anyone else who feels like answering.
Droog looked pretty townie. Pisskop's not looking nearly so townie, but he's a long way from the scummy side of my list.-

VOTE: Herodotus WTF? You don't understand how it works, and it appears unreliable, but you vote for me anyway?
I do have a browser window on my desktop with a tab for each game that I'm playing and it stays on 24/7. I do the same thing on my Kindle. I have no idea which one said that I was here while I was sleeping. My desktop occasionally reboots itself at midnight if it has installed updates, but it doesn't look like it did last night. I use my Kindle every night to read a few pages in my book before falling asleep.-

I know NK analysis is generally unfruitful, but I feel compelled to do it anyway... Looking back at Arch, nothing stands out as a reason for scum to kill him. He was at one time on all of the major wagons, Vettrock, ABR, Teapot, even Herodotus. He started the case on Vettrock, but never seemed to go back to it or push it after it fizzled. He did go back to ABR, but his vote was still only L-2. I'm not sure how much danger he was really in. I'm thinking it might have been to throw enough suspicion on ABR to get him lynched.-

My opinion of SupZero is tinged with a whole lot of OMGUS. I was originally suspicious when they said they had thoughts to share, but would do so later. Later came and went and I asked again. It wasn't until I voted that we started getting some content. Then there was Sup's vote for ABR while claiming that he thought ABR was town. It makes no sense to me. If you think that ABR is town and is such a good scum hunter that he can accurately vig kill scum on D1, then why would you want to kill him? Isn't a good scum hunter a better asset to town if he is alive?
I actually find that promising to post content later, and then not doing so, is a fairly accurate scum tell. I'd love to see some actual statistics on this. And TheCow has done it numerous times. My vote is probably going to stay on him for a while.-

Could you explain this a little more? I'm not seeing why Tea should feel townier. ABR, who Tea wanted dead no matter what, died and flipped town. I could see that Teapot would be townier if ABR had flipped scum, but huh?-

Also, @Morgan, what are your thoughts on Tea? You were the original Teapot voter, weren't you?-

If anyone is wondering why I died for a bit there, well aa lot of sleeping was had. Anyway, on topic. With yesterday's situation resolved, I'm feeling Tea is kind of townier. Though, my thoughts there could just be biased by the Lynch's results, I'm not sure. Will look into that further.
As Sup goes, their posts leave me feeling awkward. Could just be the style they're in, but it is quite likely the weirdness of their placements.
Tea is townier, but I can't imagine why, and again another promise to look into it further.
And Sup's posts make Cow feel awkward? I'm not sure what that means.

Green Canyons,
It bothers me that your case on Pisskop is based on Droog. And I disagree with almost all of it. Droog seemed to be his ordinary town self to me. He was one of my strongest town reads. Droog was V/LA. He wasn't lurking, he was gone. From the site. No reason to include him on a lurker list.
I agree that Pisskop's voting record has a lot to be desired, but I don't think it's actually as bad as Teapot's.
Your case on BBmolla was entirely based on Astinus. Which is crazy not because BB did not replace into that slot, but because BB has posted orders of magnitude more than Astinus, which you just seemed to ignore in favor of Astinus's handful of posts. And on discovering your mistake of who replaced whom, why do you review Zmpf's iso and ignore BB's? And yet you declare that BB is town?-

Crayons - Sorry!!! I don't know why I keep reading your name wrong.
The problem I have with Teapot's votes was primarily the switch to Vett. He said at one point that he wanted ABR dead no matter what. And yet he switched off ABR and voted Vett. Then turned around and announced that Vett was town and went back to ABR.-

I am not feeling the Slimer lynch, especially now that GCrayons seems to be pushing it so hard. Slimer has not been nearly as active as I would have liked, but I don't think he's been particularly scummy when he's been here.
I don't know what the Cow situation is, but I don't suppose that lynch is going anywhere.
Teapot was my preferred lynch yesterday, and GC replaced in and threw suspicions around, mostly based on replaced a few posts by replaced out players. He seems to have finally found one that stuck, but he's already preparing for the mislynch, throwing the blame off on Pisskop.

Before reading, I'm inclined not to lynch Sup-Zero or Teapot, now GC.
The problem here is that Teapot was pushing the ABR lynch, and then only momentarily switched over to Vettrock without a good explanation for the switch, and then switched back to ABR. It just looked too much like scum voting for the town cred, but switching back when it really mattered.
In post 748, Titus wrote:#189, Texcat should be lynched before Vettrock. Given Vettrock was not the dayvig, if Slimer flips scum, Texcat is almost certainly town. He also avoids giving direct comment on the ABR and Vettock wagons here.
So perhaps I should be hoping that Slimer is scum and throw my vote in, but I'm still thinking that Teapot/GC is a far better lynch. And it bothers me that GC seems to be pushing for a quick lynch on Slimer who was not on his original scum list. He's also deflecting blame already for the mislynch and lining up lynches for after the mislynch.-

Why aren't you making the same accusation toward Morgan or Sup-zero?
They had better explanations for their jumps. Teapot's jump onto Vett never made much sense to me. And Teapot was away for a couple of days, but hopped off the Vett wagon pretty soon after her return.
Spoiler:
@Titus, I'm not sure what you're asking. And did you mean the Teapot/GCslot?
Morgan on Teapot
I do not like GC's push on Pisskop which was mostly based on his read of Droog. And which I disagree with. I had Droog firmly on the town side. But he seems more interested in lynching anyone.Spoiler:-

Some interesting points on Morgan, Hero. He made the original case on Teapot and I've been thinking of him as town, but it may be time to rethink. I didn't really like the way that he just jumped on the Slimer wagon without even seeming to consider GC. The Slimer lynch looked inevitable, so he could have been bussing for a little cred.-

I'm back. I did have a V/LA posted until last night. And didn't you just disappear for a while, Morgan? Can you explain your reasons for voting me? And can you explain what happened to your Teapot/Green Crayons suspicions?
A couple of things stand out for me about BB. The number of times he protested that he was not scum after Titus added him to her list. And BB's switch to Titus. Is that just OMGUS, BB? Or do you have better reasons?
I think town can afford a mislynch and it might be better to get me out of the way. It would be better to find scum now and I don't think my lynch is going to get us much more information. But it will get Pisskop out of his tunnel.

With 9 alive, it took 5 to lynch.
I think it was inevitable that Slimer was going to be lynched, and I'm pretty sure that scum took the opportunity to bus.
And it looks inevitable that I'm going to be lynched, and I'm thinking that scum may not be on my wagon.-
