ETL wants them to get to L-1 until a votecount so that they can fullfill part of their quest that can confirm them as town, they want Ram coz Ram is scummy and if scum quickhammers to prevent the check, they're helping them lynching someone scummy anyway.
I'm still feeling the effects of White Flag.

What are the chances scum would bus in an 18 player game?

In case you hadn't realized there's a reason that people are refusing to let it be Wilky or anyone with actual scum equity: ramcius is town to me.
You are deliberately getting, in the way of a cop scan. That's not even borderline anti town, that's flat out scum. And even then I still believe that you're probably just mad town and im voting you coz I dont want someone that's purposefully playing anti town.
I don't believe the role has any value because I believe that the 'cop scan' is on a godfather at best. I am also very skeptical of the existence of the cop scan in general.
I'm going to talk to Ghost about whether or not it's time to claim.

Okay, maria, don't vote Ramcius.

Ghost, you down with keeping your vote on the wagon so RC can't quickhammer?

I definitely want Jungle on, just in case this is a fakeclaim gambit.

Also, Ram is null, not scummy.

Like there's a super easy resolution to this which is wagoning Wilky for the quest. Why is that answer being refused? What's the pro-town motivation in that?

None.

I've been very cold towards your demands because of not only my initial read on you, but parts of your engagement on me reads manipulative.

This post in particular is very difficult to quantify in any sense, regardless of context from your other posts or not. It factors into my other question from you, but why did you completely drop this after spending so much of your time and effort trying to brute force info out of me?

For me, I've seen scum trying to directly engage with the person scumreading them and try to discredit the validity of the read or try to reason their way out of it. My memory might be a bit hazy example that came to my mind reading Vent's posts was SerraPaladin's posts in the 2016 Team Trap Mafia where he said the player who was scumreading them was doing it for reasons other than the content of their posts. I know Vent's not making that same exact argument but the nature of their defense feels like it comes from that same kind of mindset.

Wrt to my Ank vote, I've seen more content from them as both alignments tbh. It's been a while since I've played with them iirc, but how they're approaching this game doesn't sit right with me and the lack of any explanations makes it harder to actually solidify the read. I'll admit it's a read subject to change but if I have to strongarm some content from them I will.
Serious question: Why me specifically?

Could that be a reason why neither of the hydras were NK'd? Ignoring PRs for a second, I can somewhat see this being a strategy, especially if neither hydra was on them. Mind you, the latter part of this half assed WIFOM theory is the key.

Ghost
Either you, me, ETL or tchill were the scum NK. OR ETL scum shot MWNN
Hmm...

I'm turning up a blank on possible scum motive for Bear to shot such a scrutinized player (not fact checked). The last time I played scum, our team coordinated the night kill to purposefully avoid 3 players who were primed to go at each other's throats, in order to help town push a mislynch.

We already discussed this privately: the point is to masquerade as a vig kill.

Yes? I think it could've gone better.

That Easter episode where 5 people needed prodding sucked balls and probably is my only overarching semi-gripe about it.

That's because it's a really bizarre gambit to do when you've just lost one scum on day one, the type that has a high risk of backfiring unless they're really damn sure that RC is not going to be pushing another scum today.

Even then, it's probably still too risky.

None.
Because, and I'm pretty sure I've explained this, I wouldn't put it past someone to lolhammer Wilky with the logic of "RC said he was scum so I just took the opportunity."

This wagon isn't about lynching anyone. And in fact, I fully intend to unvote Ram as soon as the vc happens because his reaction to being used for the wagon was fairly town. Not to mention, we need two names off of the list to vote here, and Wilky has 1? vote, so we'd have to start this horrible mess of trying to craft a wagon all over again, further confusing the thread.

I dropped it because when you responded to Impossibear and not me, in line with your Town and scumreads on our respective slots, it sent a strong sign to me that you're Town and didn't need more content from you because I had the read.

As to why you specifically, it's because I thought I could pressure the content from you. Others' lack of content might have been due to laziness or inactivity, but yours was the only one that struck me as deliberately holding back, plus a part of me figured you would be a good player to work with if Town.

Yeah, I'm saying are you okay with being one of the 8 names for the wagon composition so that RC can't quickhammer. And voting Ramcius again if he unvotes.
