1079 – Game start.
1080 – NM votes PP
1081 – Red votes PP
1082 – Math votes PP
My first real post of any useful content is 1103. Before that point it was all memeing and joking and Red being awkward. I vote Math for being the last one on the PP wagon because I find that uncharacteristically reckless for him. The reason putting someone to L-1 in this setup is risky, as opposed to others, is that scum could quick hammer and still end up having an advantage like this:
D1: (9p) Mislynch --> NK (5p) 3 town, 2 scum = LYLO.
Then we would lynch the person who quick hammered and assuming that they are in fact scum it would go:
D2: (5p) Scum lynch --> NK (3p) 2 town, 1 scum = LYLO.
All of this would have likely given scum victory because town would have been completely deprived of any information of substance so chances are 60% that we mislynch and lose the game, therefore this is the optimal scum strategy.
This argument serves two purposes first as a means to suspect Mathdino and secondly to locktown all the players off the wagon. It also further backs up my suspicion of a Mathdino/Red or Mathdino/NM scumteam as they chose to wagon a player as soon as the game opened instead of using their votes to push other players and hunt.

Another red flag for Math is; if we compare his opening in the Bird 7p vs the 2d3, you’ll notice any of his usual setup spec/optimal play rubbish is completely missing. His opening in and of itself is beyond uncharacteristic. We might even be able to flip his own useless “buzzword” onto him and say BoP implies that Mathdino is scum based on his opening alone.
1105 – Mathdino reacts to my vote. Tone is awkward, like forced casualness? And rather than respond to my accusation of his lack of caution in pushing PP to L-1, he dismisses it with “Can’t tell if RVS,” he also subtly implies both Gamma and I are town with his “I see my trust was well placed” comment about us not hammering PP. If the push on Penguin to L-1 was a reaction test, then the benefits did not outweigh the cost of town likely losing this game as a result. Mathdino of all people is smarter than this. He finishes this post with a deflection of attention onto Gamma “yo gamma do you have reads” yeah, awkward right?
1111 – Mathdino and NM scum team setting up a Cheeky wagon maybe? Who knows. Just highlighting this post for hindsight.
[[SBT: 2 points NM]]
Now to close this chapter, let’s think for a moment. Of all the players here who would Mathdino want to get rid of the most if he were scum? I’d say myself because I actually make AI content happen and most like PP because he is predisposed to pessimism with Mathdino. SS, Red and Gamma are all easily won over by and pocketed by Math. Funny how his voting is lining up with an easily predictable agenda. This also points to a NM partner as NM does not easily have the wool pulled over his eyes by anyone.

1133 – Red pings me with his “I wanted to quicklynch PP” reaction to my vote for reasons easily deduced from Chapter 1. The worst thing about this post is that he says he wanted to see a hammer since it would out 2 members of a team but that doesn’t make any sense…it would out 1 member of the scum team (ze hammerer) because there are already 3 existing players on the wagon and we don’t know which at this point. Oh, but he also says the push for a quicklynch was a joke? Wat? [[SBT: 2 points Red]]
To Be Continued…(Yes this is going to cover every. single. MathDino post)
