VOTE: abr how are we ignoring how abr was the one who came out smelling like shit from yesterday's wagon, was pushing a slot until it quit, and then seamlessly began pushing elsewhere? I have to admit, i have not read most of day 1, but that seems fucking strange.
Can someone tl;dr day 1 for me? What are some key pages? I read maybe 10 pages leading up to the lynch so far"It is not our ignorance that will kill us, but our arrogance"

This was really scummy from end of day 2. You don't go from scumreading someone to 100% thinking they're town because they replaced out. I've also seen votato pull a very similar thing as scum before, with slightly different circumstances.In post 2069, votato wrote:

no he cant, since he won't know if his target resolves. not unless we have a voyeur or a tracker or a watcher who can coordinate with him. i guess if he just states his target before nightfall then other investigatives can work with that info.In post 2331, Clair wrote:I don't want to poison the well here, but the longer he goes without posting the likelier he's scum who wants to avoid spew.
Correct course is to wait about a day and then lynch, scum will be forced to kill Frederick since he can clear someone tomorrow."It is not our ignorance that will kill us, but our arrogance"

Spoiler:
i read over logical's iso, and....
wel....
he starts by admitting that hes gonna go after gobble not for being scum but because its strategic. he asks if his slot claimed that they had been visited by FN, and knowing that wasnt true, why would he think his slot had fake-claimed? continues pushing gobble without giving any reason other than "optimal lynch" then theres the 800 posts apart why did your reads change thing, and then rather than a "dont lynch me im town" we get a "you cant lynch me i just replaced in

hmmm this is interesting. i wont get into the balance/mech talk since i dont think i have enough of a grasp to know what would work balance-wise. I'm inclined to believe zlair over gobbles, but i definitely could see both gobbles and zlair being scum and trying to CC each other and getting caught. what are the odds that its zlair/clair/gobbles? and which one of the "airs" is hectic?"It is not our ignorance that will kill us, but our arrogance"

well it means theres no chance of FB and zlair scumteam right? FB!scum would have know there was a nea, but wouldnt have risked fake-claiming that early. i dont see that it clears me whether or not im paired with zlair. i feel like i wouldnt want to claim VT though since scum!me would want to prioritize killing the JK over the neapolitan.In post 2572, Blair wrote:Both Votato and Firebringer claimed VT under the impression we would be massclaiming, though, so they aren't necessarily cleared because they could have been planning to out the Neapolitan in the mass claim and kill them the next night, so it's less helpful."It is not our ignorance that will kill us, but our arrogance"

so you've now done a complete 180 and believe zlair's claim? you seem to be scrambling and pointing fingers all over and trying to insist that you're cleared as town.In post 2611, gobbledygook wrote:

yeah it was obvious. the question is why. your progressions seem pretty inorganic. you'd expect that if your fake-claim gambit caught scum that you'd be pushing the scum you'd caught.In post 2616, gobbledygook wrote:
