micro 816-I: spaam (normal game) (gambe over)

[schadd_]

one-shot honey, collect it all
the dust inside the rusted souls
you should get a ride, cause you can't control
the heart that beats inside the bone

c'mon, my comeback chameleon
give it up, you got your life to attend to,
buttercup, you're entertainin the talk that is told through the teeth of the mouths of the millions
dyin to meetcha, little do they know

aeuaoxoa

That's not a quack!!!

[the worst]

also voteparking Rel

I kinda feel like he's by far the highest interest lynch today and I don't really feel like diving back thru the thread is gonna yield me much

[mutantdevle]

Town ducks don't give up.

[the worst]

bored duck gives up regardless of alignment fam

we're at the point in the game where people are literally seriously considering the {lurker, bored guy} scumteam which should be like a glowing red flag that scum are pwning on post count.

FL is the only one like... being solvey. I'm starting to townread you out of personality stuff mutant but I'm low on reads.

Rel lacks the sense of urgency and clarity I'm used to seeing from him.

[RadiantCowbells]

So you think it's irrel/gamma?

[the worst]

not 100% on partner but I'm pretty sure Rel isn't town

[the worst]

both of my townreads are voting Gemi and like I GUESS she could be scum but I got some good energy there earlier so I'm kinda cold on that lynch for now

[the worst]

seriously though how often are the two least charismatic slots actually scum

[GeminiTwin12]

How confident are you that irrelephant being scum? I see your scum read on them seems to be based on prior experience but I'm just not getting that feel from them. Where's your Town read on Flavor Leaf directly coming from? I agree that they're being solvey, I just don't think it's coming from a genuine place.

[the worst]

FL is challenging because tonally he always feels like reserved and considered. I just agree with a fair few of his thoughts about slots gamestates etc. and don't really mind the assumptions he's operating off to get to the conclusions he's getting to

like he's either just town or this is a v strong scumgame for him. I think if it makes sense he plays town the way people wish people played scum.

[Flavor Leaf]

My scum games I’m generally rather universally town read, or if I’m not, i kill my threats off fast.

[Flavor Leaf]

@RC - I don’t see ScumDuck staying on Irrelephant here.

I think I’m leaning towards the Phant for today

[Flavor Leaf]

One might even say that FL is putting lip service to being willing to vote TW while not doing so! That would be a spicy thing to say

I agree with the mindset of this, but I wouldn’t have voted Ducky here today. Ducky being scum requires me to fully believe Rrelephant is town, and I don’t. There’s a flow that I’m going back and forth from, but it just brings Gemeni up when Irrelephant goes townie.

I feel Worst becomes more obvious if they are scum later in game, so id rather deal with that tomorrow if I’m alive.

TW is also the most likely to be lynched if I die, so I’m also not worried there, which is why i’d Rather go Gemeni/Irrelephant today, if that makes sense.

[Flavor Leaf]

Some stuff that gives me pause is I think Gemeni’s partner is the scum.

[Flavor Leaf]

Mutant, let’s hop over.

VOTE: Irrelephant

[Flavor Leaf]

I feel I need to stop overthinking. It’s just Irrelephant/Gemeni.

I don’t care which we lynch, to be honest, but I feel Irrelephant is more likely due to TW/Gamma, possibly RC.

[Flavor Leaf]

If I’m wrong, you get the next wagon, RC. We can take turns. you wanted Ircher, I want Rele.

[the worst]

alternating kingmaker between the two most skilled scum players on the list

oK tHiS is FINE

[mutantdevle]

Mutant, let’s hop over.

VOTE: Irrelephant

Lol no.

I want Gemini or the worst now. Preferably Gemini.

[Irrelephant11]

people are literally seriously considering the {lurker, bored guy} scumteam

Show me any pair of players this game day that can't be described this way

[RadiantCowbells]

gamma being town is uncontested
I think gemini is sort of obvtown; she always takes town over stungun, and I don't understand the wagons on her but given I believe exactly 1/2 of the wagon is scum I'll live with it
I'm town

so from there we have

FL
Mutant
TW
Irrel

[RadiantCowbells]

I don't think that Mutant's tunnel on Irrelephant was SvS, not because I don't think that scum would do that necessarily but because the actual play doesn't feel SvS

so quickly we have

FL/Mutant
FL/TW
FL/Irrel
Mutant/TW
TW/Irrel

[RadiantCowbells]

In general, I find something off about {Ircher, Prof Fridays, GeminiTwin12 & Flavor Leaf}. Idk why but I just feel like both scums could be in such pool as if you pick any 2 players from this pool then they make sense as a scum team.

actually my biggest issue with Mutant/TW is that I would expect >90% of the time for scum to put their partner in this designation but I feel like it's so awkward that it might have been explicitly coached as a false lead
Mutant/FL is still possible though

[RadiantCowbells]

still feeling like TW/FL blows everything else out of the water equity wise, I have a few moments where I'm leaning towards Mutant/TW because mutant put TW as second but refuses to vote there unless it's happening without them but meh

more interested in seeing what else I can explicitly exclude from contention
