Open 728: Sharing is Caring (GAME OVER)

[HitAlt]

I've played with you before too S_S.
I think you had an S as your avatar before?

Saturn, pixellated map, Fix-it Felix, Foo Fighters album cover, Saturn again.

Not sure what you might be referring to.

[ruru]

Do you often get mislynched d1?

[northsidegal]

I would expect at least one out of ten townreads to be wrong

[Something_Smart]

Do you often get mislynched d1?

Used to happen all the time.

Don't think I've been mislynched D1 in a while though.

[ruru]

Omg, I so want ruby red to make an appearance in this game now

[Something_Smart]

The amusing thing is, Ruby Red was basically the antithesis of my entire mafia theory, and nsg's ideas line up very closely with mine

Concrete and Gold?
I always thought it had an S-motif if it's that one!

Why?
And what is that?

[the worst]

Concrete and Gold is lit.

My guess is RR playstyle shakes people up and cures boredom. What's on your mind Hit?

[Zoronos]

Sorry I was away all day.
The worst - Let's say, for the sake of argument, that we're not lynching ofhrz today. Doesn't matter why, maybe they're a magical day commuter that leaves the game during day phase. Whatever, doesn't matter.
How else would you look at for scum?

[HitAlt]

What's on your mind Hit?

I wasn't bored before, but I'm getting bored by people saying this game is boring.
I also think you are scum.
Such a tunnel has been formed, that I doubt I will ever find my way out of it.
So please agree to be our sacrifice to the blood god today, and we will mourn you if your heart is true after all.

[the worst]

If you're scum using this tunnel shit as a smoke screen I will akshully 1v1 u irl bro

Zoronos, I'm totally at a loss. I'll do some fun reading later. Who do you think is scum rn?

Like, I'm willing to go way more in-depth with my reads the following day if I'm wrong about you here, but I doubt it.
I'm mainly a tone-reader anyway, and I tend to be correct about these things.

[the worst]

OK but your argument was literslly
> TW prefers town to scum
> TW seems disengaged

am I wrong? have you read any of my games? I try to make a concerned effort to be difficult as scum and am more inclined to boredom as town. And now you're adding "tone" to that?

Dude have you actually caught scum in your career? One? Maybe two?

[HeWhoSwims]

Okay, 614 and the few following posts are a good case (if that's the right word?). I'm not seeing scum!duck too much BUT if ducky is scum then I'd be open to lynching Zoro.

But if you cop him that's gonna give you a mafia result 95% percent of the time because of the framer (assuming we don't kill them before then) (edit: lol everyone's called this out right after the post itself, but still)

@Math dunno if forgetting the framer is town per se? Could be Hitalt trying to get cop discussion going althought I doubt it; TR on Hitalt.

Doesn't scum.jjh often bus scum.ofrhz in this game state or wouldn't the third scum be hard pushing one of them and not the other or something

Like what's their plan if they're both scum

Personally didn't see the part where jjh hard defends Ofrhz, must've slipped past me, but I'll believe it for now and hopefully re read later. In this case I indeed doubt it's ideal for scum!jj to hard defend his buddy scum!ofrhz. This would sooner be buddying/pocketing of ofrhz by jjh but I'm scumleaning ofrhz. Does anyone with meta have a solid townread on ofrhz?

Woah it's skitter

That was my first thought as well ducky what happened to the cute duck :/

My condolences pintu

I'm liking the SoSm - NSG interactions on page 28, both seeming to be open to each other and being able to turn around. Plus healthy self criticism from Smart I feel in "Well I understand if you don't see reasons to explicitly townread me"

I don't know.

I wanted to surprise switcheroo vote HWS when I got back to my computer but I re-read his ISO and I can't bring myself to do it. I wanted to be like 'Yeah, this guy everyone is ignoring who is totally lurking is probably the scum!' but his posting doesn't fit the mold. He got a couple early town reads then largely went into lurk / talk about theory posting modes. But doesn't seem to have an agenda with it that I can spot, and he's doing some sorting.

I'm not voting Pintu, Ruru, or Blackstar unless crazy shit really goes down. (Read: I think they're town)
NSG and Math aren't leaning in as heavily as I was hoping, but they're doing work and right now that's enough for me, so nope on that.
HitAlt is the aggroest, most anti-charismatic scum I've seen since I played a game a few years ago with Thor, or he's just town. It could be theater (and MD is wrong on his town-spew comment. I turned it over in my head today, and remembered a game where scum literally forgot their own PR's and got town read off it. Not on this site, or I'd link it. I modded it and facepalmed when it happened. Scum can just be dumb, because humans are dumb.) but I'm putting those odds on the outside chance of things. So nope on that vote right now.

PoE means I'm left with a lynch pool of Davesaz, JJH, S_S, and you. I'm not getting a super scummy vibe from JJH or S_S though, which is troubling.
My heart is telling me to vote Davesaz, but I can't put together a cogent case from looking at his posting, and even if it is davesaz, he has scum buddies so why am I not seeing them.

[the worst]

Turn up your brightness and zoom in! The ducky is there.

pedit: I feel u bro, I'm not getting a scumread on anyone this game. Worst thing so far was Pintu's too-late push on me which was highly gross but the rest of his ISO is fine and I'm comfortable with putting it down to him misreading some shit since he is wonderful.

But like most of this game has been LARGE WALLS OF TEXT WITH SENSIBLE ARGUMENTS which frankly I cbf reading intent into

[the worst]

I actually kinda hate Dave's voting but idrk what I'd do different

[HeWhoSwims]

VOTE: ofrhrzhrz

I feel the posts-to-content ratio is way too high now.

Ducky can live for now I think?. I should probably iso dive ducky soon but you have so many posts dammit!

I still think Hitalt's connection there is good though.

[the worst]

Which connection exactly

[Zoronos]

I actually kinda hate Dave's voting but idrk what I'd do different

I'm less offended by dave's voting, because his reason for voting MD was bad but he was pretty adamant about the validity of his meta argument. And I felt it was uhh transparently poor, and I think scum would make it something less transparently bad if they were going to lie. There's better ways to be vague than what Daveasz chose to do.
I think it was a poor vote but it wasn't a sneaky poor vote. It was almost "look at this vote, it is kinda dumb!" Also, when I pointed out that his suspicion was on two people on the ofhrz wagon he denied at all they were connected. I'd anticipate a scum there would try for some subtle white knighting, call the ofhrz wagon bad, or something, use that to legitimize his reads. But he acted offended that I even made the observation.

My problem with Daveasz was his push on ruru. The questions felt largely answerable from reading the thread, imo. Maybe I'm being insufficiently generous here, but I feel pretty okay in my town ruru read, and my assessment of their vote on ofhrz was 'Not malicious, maybe misguided', and especially in the context of the other things ruru has written it just felt like an odd choice to specifically call out that vote, from amongst all the naked-vote options to chose.

[the worst]

Ruru just like... is town imo? That vote was the one that pinged me harder than the Math vote.

Either way that's 2x vote's on people who would be stupid as shit to actually wagon. From memory Ruru defended Math when Dave voted him. his vote on Ruru might have been tinged with disdain from the math vote ig. I have not been paying stacks of attention to most of Dave's posts lemme have a read

[HeWhoSwims]

Which connection exactly

The scum ducky --> scum Zoro one. Which I just mentioned

[the worst]

The Mathdino I know power towns.
Votes have multiple purposes.
Why categorize it as lazy? I see it as thought provoking.

Lazy would be ruru refusing to answer my question. In fact I can’t decide if voting me is more a diversion from my question or a chainsaw.

I probably dislike this more than the original vote if I'm honest.
