What did I not answer?
How is this important? And Ive given you as much as is genuine without forcing myself to provide extra reasons. I just remembered I felt a certain way after vecna flip and am sharing my opinion. Your push back at me is ridiculous.
There was a reason why I said what I did at the time.

I want to know why you have this impression that what I said was disingenuous or spewing too much information.

It is important because I feel like you're grasping at straws to legitimize NSG's wagon or at least NSG/myself as scumreads, and if you actually have good reasons to think the things you do (particularly this one), then I don't see why you can't just explain it.

If you think my response regarding Vecna was scummy, then I don't see why anyone (especially me) wouldn't be interested in knowing why.

I've given her opportunity to openly analyse her wagon and rather than proving her PoV is townie she's flipping town off so you can say I'm justifing a bs wagon but you're going to need to point out how NSG is town based on her responses today instead of turning the tables on me after you rush to defend NSG after weakly scum reading her D1.
I have not defended her.

I said I thought she could be town, yes. And I've said why here. But mostly I've just claimed today because a lot of people are going 'well Pine roleblocked her and there was no kill so she is probably scum' or 'well she is probably the best lynch today even though I townread her because Pine roleblocked her and there was no kill.' I've given a valid reason as to why it's possible for NSG to be town here despite the roleblock. And I've given my reasoning for why I decided to claim despite scumreading her yesterday (and a lot of my townreads have been saying she was town anyway, so of course I'd reassess, as if I wouldn't do my due diligence anyway and reassess my read on her).

What about her today has been scummy? That she hasn't immediately evaluated her wagon? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Self preservation? I think town have as much reason to fight their mislynch as scum do to stay alive. I don't think it's a scumtell.

What does any of this have to do with you 'being pinged about my response regarding Vecna'?

There was no kill last night.

Pine is claiming to have roleblocked NSG, who is claiming VT. NSG is the only wagon so far today.

I've claimed 1-Shot Bulletproof because I am and thus don't think Pine's Roleblocker claim is a surefire scum catch (it could be but I think that we're better off reading NSG off of play here).

Day 2 practically just started so you can read through the game and catch up that way.

So, you should probably start with NSG and go from there?

I don't understand the wagon on Firebringer.

I haven't played with Mutant before.

With that said, I don't have a particular issue with Mutant pointing out a potential vig soft claim. His sudden spurt of activity afterwards is interesting though. I think it's likely he realized he hadn't done anything of value up to that point and decided to start contributing instead of becoming a vig target. Survivalism? Could be, but is that really something only scum are capable of? Everything he's done though is a constant stream of 'wtf am i reading?'.

I'm gutreading Hiplop as town.

I'm townreading Vax.

NSG's lolcase on Gamma is still odd and I'm scumreading her for it. NSG's defense of Mutant is sketchy (and yes, I'm reading it as a defense because what else would it be?).

I would townread T-Bone if he were more insightful instead of just being reasonable. The only thing I like from him so far is his vote on NSG, but that's still somethign that was originally done randomly and I'm pretty sure he's indicated in some way that he's not really scumreading her.

I don't really think AA9 is scummy. But I did think it was possible she was scum avoiding the game, hence the vote.

Vecna continues to be useless. I stand by my bid to impeach him and take his place.

I hope UT's executive decision to give us a VoteCount doesn't count against our total.

I don't have time to read through and figure out 60 billion Gerald posts right now.

Cheeky, why are/were you townreading Gamma?

Oh, you think so? I kind of gloss over her posts.

I was actually okay with the wagon on her during my reread since it seemed like she was bouncing around without any rhyme or reason (and I can see scum doing that and others scumreading her for that sort of behavior, although I'm unsure if that's why most of you were voting her). I was kind of okay with her in the last few pages in regards to Reck, but I don't remember why I was.

I didn't like her Vecna townread, and I haven't bothered to check if she's indeed scumreading everyone who votes her (which is just lol if this is the case because I think she's admitted to trying to pull attention to herself).

It doesn't necessarily make you scummy, but is super suspicious. Especially when we flip them.


It's day 1. We should be look at wagons like this: Unless you are town reading them, get on the wagon.
Well this certainly feels like a 'damned if I do, damned if I don't' sort of situation, and regardless of her flip, no?

It doesn't really make sense for me to lynch someone just because, does it?

Why do you want her dead anyway?

We also have 5 days left so why do you keep pushing this idea that the day
has
to end?

Do you not get that I don't like the option that you guys keep trying to shove in my face and I'm exploring other options (AA9 who was nonexistent, Vecna who I still don't think has done anything majorly town-indicative, NSG LOL, TBone who I think did something that could be scum-indicative and it's why I'm pushing him)?

If you think it's suspicious that I don't scumread her and that I should (for whatever reason), then don't you think it makes more sense to explain to me or convince me why she needs to die today instead of just trying to strongarm it onto me?

In post 1049, Vecna wrote:brian, can you go into what you think about pine's play is substantially different from civmaf? disregarding it not being packaged in roleplaying.
From what I remember, Pine's play was mostly:

A) Hiding behind heavy amounts of flavor
B) Naked scumreads (most of which was on Vecna)
C) Empty promises to explain said scumread(s)
D) "I'm Busy" or "I'm Overwhelmed"

I've also only read a small portion of that game, so if you think it really is the same, you'd have to explain it to me.

In post 1898, Brian Skies wrote:It is a bit laissez faire I guess. And forced. I won't deny either of those.

I think North is scummy. And I think Hiplop is scummy. I think Angel could be scum, but it could also just be a result of English probably not being her primary language and the game being the way it is. I'm unopposed to her lynch anyway and would still hammer her if she made it to L-1.

I think Ali is probably town. And maybe Fire. I don't have any other townread I feel strongly about.

Hyung is probably town, I still stand by this assessment. I did get the feeling he was trying to solve or sort the game before he disappeared and it kind of felt like town frustration.

You are a hot mess. Reck is a hot mess but he's been sort of indicating a comfirmable role so meh. Pine is trying but is meh (best thing I've liked from him so far is his thing on Angel).

I'm still waiting for LLD to catch up as nothing from her catchup makes me feel solidly one way or another from her. She did touch up on some things that bothered me about Vax in her catchup though, although I don't feel that Vax has been that scummy. I could probably be convinced to vote Vax since his 180 flip to townreading me after I said I townread him was interesting. Still think the 'Brian was so much townier before his TBone push' is probably a natural townie feeling (Ali did the same thing).

Penguin is meh and I've mostly been townreading him because I thought his early content kinda felt like scumhunting, and the last time I played with him He didn't really do that and mostly pushed questionable flavor related things. He is back to meh.

Vecna was a lot of nothing early on. His later content feels townish enough that I'm not really interested going there right now.

Gooey is probably town. Gamma I still think is town. Didn't like his earlier thing about Angel when he meta dove her and found nothing of value after we told him it was a waste, and he came back wondering why we had no thoughts on it. But his later thing about Angel was okayish.

Who else is in this game?

I don't really think scum shot me (although I don't think they couldn't have either). I just don't like people hardpushing the idea NSG has to be scum here, especially if they're reading her as town.

It's weird and I don't like it.

I'm also waffling on NSG being scum, and there are people I'd rather lynch before her.

Like Mutant and Titus. Maybe Penguin who avoided the game all day but still found time to join both the AA9 wagon and the Vecna wagon at EOD.

AA9's hardpush here doesn't give me the greatest vibes either.

I like LLD and maybe Ali for giving her some space.

I agree with most of this. The defense wasn't sudden, I feel his town read on me so early was pretty bs too. Rather than sudden I'd say "oddly timed" - which was when he initially believed I had been lynched. His quick "oh yeah she is at L-2" post implies he did think I was hammered when he started harping on about "bad lynch, gamma next" and then the somewhat believable defense. I've had my misgivings from the start when I believe he town read me too early in a somewhat contradictory manner.

If Fire is scum, Gamma looks conf town and NSG/Hyung look much worse. I don't know what to make of the Reck v Fire thing that just happened though. Still processing, but it's possible SvS.

I think AA9 and Mutant are most likely to be lynchbait, but seeing as it's D1, I'd rather mislynch them today then be left with them later. Call it policy.

Vecna is gut from the start, his reads aligned with mine and I think he's the kind of player that will get easier to spot as scum further down the line.

Reck I 180'd on because of his push onto AA9 and his posts can be seen from a messy town PoV. I feel like the interactions around my wagon fake hammer point to at least one scum {Pine, Reck, FB}. I've recently learned that scum are most likely to stay off mislynch bait especially when there's suspicion around the wagon so that intensifies my Reck TR and drops Brian down for me.

Alisae will also become more obvious but I just feel like she's not driving an agenda. I did when she first replaced in, but I town read Brass slightly and kinda feel like her playstyle is more "too scummy to be scum" than mutant if that makes sense?

Nice point.

The reason I said what I did in was because everything Vecna had done up to that point was pretty much nothing and not town indicative. I also thought Cheeky's reasoning for townreading Vecna there was pretty poor (although mostly I just saw that she said she townread Vecna and I was like ???, 'no').

Obviously, Vecna did a lot more after 708, but NSG's treatment of the Vecna slot seems to be pretty townish and/or believable to me. Like, she doesn't think he's town, and thus doesn't give him towncred, and even questions when other people do.

Molla even entered the game with a hard scumread of the Vecna slot (and after Vecna flipped scum, I voted BBMolla to become the next Votecounter as a sort of reward for sparking that wagon at EOD; if he didn't really want it then sorry, I guess).

I started off the game joking about the Vecna slot because I thought it would be funny to push him for the VC thing based off of UT's response to me (I live in Vegas and thought that me being a VC and joking about hookers or blackjack could have been fun). However, as Vecna started to do nothing, my scumread of him did solidify. I feel that his lackluster push on Pine makes Pine more than likely to be town. I'm not quite sold on him spewing AA9 being town, but I feel that AA9's play has been improving over time (and she's always lurk-scummy anyway and I don't feel like that's AI for her). He did move up for me later in the day, but it was mostly out of him playing the game and other players being nonexistent or useless or whatever and dropping in my reads list rather than anything majorly town indicative he ever did (basically he went up because others went down; see Hiplop, Penguin).

Cheeky's first mention of Vecna being town is not great. And she does move him into the never lynch pile, and I don't think he ever did anything majorly worthy of being put in that pile. But the reasoning seems to mostly boil down to 'I like his reads' and 'I think his role is likely to be town,' both of which I find very :/

Obviously there are other people that had a read on Vecna and I don't really feel like going through all of them. I just feel that NSG is an unlikely buddy. And Cheeky is dodging my question and she seems like she'd be a buddy anyway.

I feel like scum-me just doesn't claim and hopes that you get mislynched and/or someone claims doc or something and I get free town PR's to kill.

Viscon Crossroads: I was provided with a fakeclaim and I'm pretty sure I claimed it (to my neighbor Desp).
Some Newbie Game: I CC'ed the town PR, but this was mostly out of necessity.
Kuribo in Wonderland: I claimed VT in this game.
Battlestar Galactica: I don't like to include this game because I started off as town and claimed my role (Watcher) as town before I became scum (and I kinda sorta helped to wreck my own scumteam and kinda sorta became an SK I guess). And then it turned in X-Shot Watcher or something. Idk.

I don't think I've fakeclaimed in any other games.

I feel like they're pretty similar to a Fruit Vendor. And I don't think Fruit Vendors should receive results (although their target should).

Not really sure about the AA9 (who I think could be town anyway) or [BBMolla?] (who I think is probably town, but I guess that could be one of those TMI bus read thingies; although it mostly just reads as BS to me and I think people were already mentioning that Gamma was playing differently than normal so...) conclusions, but the rest seem okay.

Okay, sure. I guess I can see that regarding AA9.

I think the reason Ali is townreading LLD from the Vecna interactions is because it seems as though Vecna is talking to town or goading town into following through with their desired lynch.

Which would then make it more likely Hyung is town?

"Information lynches" are garbage.

Like, if you're thinking that from an objective standpoint (not taking into account reads) it's equally probably that pine roleblocked me as that Brian was shot, I still utterly fail to see the purpose of lynching me.
You need to pick a stance on me.

You can't both use my claim as a reason to discredit the roleblock on you AND try to fish out another claim.

I don't need to "discredit" the roleblock - it's literally unambiguous that from an objective standpoint and, assuming your claim is true, Pine's roleblock on me is absolutely not any sort of "guilty". That's factual. It's not a "discredit".
I get that you were scumreading me before this, but I feel like you're more interested in keeping me open as a lynch option than understanding why I claimed.

Also, there's no guarantee there's another protective or other role that could have interfered with the NK.

But you're stating that:
1) You're town
2) I could be scum
3) There could be another role that prevented the kill

It's like you're trying to move the wagon from you onto me, while at the same time trying to draw out another claim as you do so.

like you got blocked, brian claimed to distance and gain town cred/cast doubt on nsg's claim
or scum saw the no kill and pine jumped in with a bs claim to force brian to claim

it's purely conjecture and paranoia. but i want to be clear that my push on you is not related to your behavior
and tbh i dont care to try because im convinced that REGARDLESS of if you're town or scum this is the right way to go
I don't like this, but I feel like this is more likely to come from town than scum.

In a 'this is probably caught scum and I feel like taking the risk' sort of way.

I'm literally pointing out what I perceive to be flaws in people's reasoning from an objective standpoint, because that way people can understand it not just looking at it from the PoV of me being town.

All of those numbered things you listed are objective truths.

No, you can't possibly say that I'm trying to draw out another claim when multiple times I've said that people shouldn't claim.
Not so much moving the wagon as trying to keep me open as a lynch option. You're acknowledging that my claim supports a 'you-town' scenario, but you're also (or were) actively pushing the idea that you thought Town-Me claiming here was
unlikely
.

The way you're pushing it also feels like you want some sort of confirmation that there are or aren't other roles that could have interfered with the role, which kind of feels like drawing out other PR's.

Yes, the things I numbered could be objective truths (from a town-you mindset), but I don't see why I can't just be town claiming BP because I feel like it's the mechanically right thing to do regardless of what I think of your alignment.

Well, that's pretty much what Reck's been preaching all day.

So if you don't agree with me, then it's probably a

Unless you just don't think he's townish, in which case, sure? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So what you're saying is that you don't like that I haven't locktowned you yet?

And you can't see how me not locktowning you is completely reasonable from my point of view?

And that's ignoring how I've detailed my thought process on how you're either very likely town or scum making a really bold play by fakeclaiming here,
and
how I asked you for meta on you fakeclaiming as scum?
The way you're pushing it also feels like you want some sort of confirmation that there are or aren't other roles that could have interfered with the role, which kind of feels like drawing out other PR's.
You can't keep saying this. I don't know how many times you want me to repeat it - i don't want anyone else to claim.
I don't think you have to townread me for it, but I definitely think I've earned more than being relegated to your scumpool. As I see it, I'm the best reason why an NSG lynch doesn't happen today.

I did give you my meta.

If you don't want others to claim, then stop repeating 'Brian isn't necessarily town here' like a broken record. Because from a town you perspective, I'm probably town here regardless of what your read on me is.

I hate people saying this to me so much.

"Defensive".

I mean, most of the conversation is centered around me. Of course that's what I'm going to end up talking about.

Didn't you think what you thought was me trying to shift the wagon to you was a scumtell? How is not looking for alternative wagons scummy? (not even true btw, given my cheeky vote)
Didn't I vote Cheeky first though?

Okay, I'll admit that defensiveness isn't a scumtell. I actually said that here.

Reck and Pine are just very charismatic and I kind of want to take a chance on the Roleblocker shot. Worst case scenario you flip town and I'm probably dead within the next two nights anyway. Or you're scum and people lynch me for paranoia that I'm you're buddy (which is a trade I'm okay with).

I've also gone through the effort of reassessing my read on you and you sitting on a scumread on me doesn't exactly incite the best vibes from you.

Who're your scumreads?

Who're your scumreads?
What happened to the Brian at the start of the day who looked back at my day one and figured that I was town?

I feel like you're just willing to lynch me now because I didn't locktown you for your claim or something, and I'm honestly not sure if it's coming from scum! you or town!you.

Like, i'm sorry that doubt still remains in my mind that you could be scum? i haven't gotten around to reviewing those scumgames, so i still can't make any conclusive statement on whether you'd do the fakeclaim as scum or not.

I've already given my readslist.
My reads change with the wind this game. I thought that was obvious by now.

I don't care if you townread me for it or not. I just don't like you going 'Brian's claim is proof that I could be town' while at the same time going 'Brian being town is incredibly unlikely here.' So far, I'm the only thing standing between you and certain death, so don't fault me for thinking that you don't really get that option right now?

Sure, I can buy that you haven't gone through those games yet. ALthough I pretty much told you what I claimed, and it's pretty much me claiming my role (or what was given to me). And I don't think it makes sense for scum-me to claim right now in any scenario (I mean, if you're town, then from your perspective I can either get your mislynch and/or draw out other PR's). So a little actual thought here would be nice.

imo the loss of a vt that will be a constant mislynch target in exchange for game-relevant setup info is perfectly acceptable as a worst case scenario
I'm working within the context of the third option there because i know 1 is wrong
and 2 seems exceedingly unlikely to me
:

Is the information that at least one of two claims must be true worth having one less townie in the game and going into the night phase? Because I don't think it is at all. It's not as if it
prevents
scum from in any meaningful way fakeclaiming something.

What's more, the only reason that i think i could be called a constant mislynch target would be people falsely taking the roleblock as a guilty. Anyone thinking that the roleblock makes me more likely to be scum should share the viewpoint that it is equally likely that the lack of a kill makes Brian Skies confirmed town - simply going off of mechanics that is. If you scumread me by play, it's an entirely different point - the thing is, nobody (or at least, not many people) seem to scumread me by play, and i think that's something that can remain the same or even improve further on into the game.

So basically, the information gained from my lynch honestly seems pretty useless, and I think the only reason I could even be called a "constant mislynch target" would be people choosing to believe that the roleblock makes me scum over the equally likely possibility that it makes Brian Skies conftown? (Equally likely just going off of setup, which you've said you are)
This here seems like you're pushing the idea that town-Me is incredibly unlikely. So...?

Okay, fair.

For the record, I do think you're town, but I don't have an issue with testing guilty claims in general and my reads this game...

After all: easy excuse as to why Brian doesn't die at night (scum are scared of the BP) and lets scum make it impossible to verify Pine's roleblock is actually what stopped the kill.

This sentence makes no sense to me as is, but I think I know what you're trying to say.

However, please explain to me why you think Pine the evil Lightning Rod steals the invention from you and then admits to receiving it?

My new desired lynch pool is Mutant and Penguin. Maybe Reck.

I could probably be convinced in voting Hyung as well, although he is leaning more on the townier side of null for me. I'm just not sure how to feel about his reaction to the NSG wagon today.

I also don't think Titus is using moonlogic.

I don't think Cheeky knows what it means to have TMI (she said it to me regarding my Vecna read although a quick search of Vecna's earlier posts shows why I said what I did) and she's just throwing it around. Does this make her scum? Idk.

I think Penguin is an okay wagon. I prefer Hyung.

I think Hyung's Day 1 case is pretty convincing, and it makes me rethink how I've been reading Hyung this game. I also think that if NSG and I are both town, that scum could have avoided jumping on her yesterday for the roleblock claim.

Penguin didn't have a reaction toward the NSG wagon at all (whereas everyone else reacted to it at least in some way). Hyung's was king of suspicious in that he called her reaction town but hedged on it (Titus kind of said this yesterday).

Yeah, I can see how you would think that was TMI. I had a similar impression.

I'm just not entirely convinced NSG plays to this degree as scum. Especially since it's not like I've felt any of her pushes were scummy (this is mostly hindsight, I did think she was scummy at the time). I think her scumread on Gamma is okay if we assume she just didn't know when the game officially started. And I don't think either of her pushes on me were bad either.

I also feel like NSG-scum would be more willing to elevate me into her townreads.

She refuses to do so, and I can only guess the reason is because she legitimately doesn't trust me.

I think she did something similar yesterday regarding her Day 1 readslist.

However, Vecna was in her POE scumpile. So I don't think that flip would have changed her reads that much.

I also don't think she was suspecting Pine or Mutant.

So not really sure why you feel like her reads should change massively based on the flips we've been given.

Afaict, Fire was solidly suspecting Vecna for most of the game, and he helped start the Vecna wagon.

Is it a bus? Doesn't really seem like one.

While I don't care as much about the different target, I am interested in what you think of this.

Especially from the angle you were shooting yesterday where you said scum were likely intentionally messing with Fire's night action.

I'm also going to add that I find it incredibly suspicious that you would have this major analysis where you suspect Pine and try to string him up off of potential night actions and him being a lightning rod (or there being a busdriver or whatever), but
completely
disregard Firebringer potentially softing Reck as the target the day before.

I do think Reck should be included in your thoughts somewhere. Even if it's an "I just don't think it's him," but there should be a reason for it.

Reck also avoided looking towards Hiplop's direction yesterday, and I pointed that out here.

I've also been kinda sorta giving Reck a pass for it, but I also absolutely LOATHE the fact I had to point out that Reck claimed to receive stuff Night 1 when he was addressing the lightning rod accusations. I definitely feel like he should have been the first to shoot that theory down.

Also, Reck definitely seems like he'd be a Vecna-buddy to me since he was one of the main people pushing the idea that Vecna had to be town for his 'claim' (and he's still trying to push the idea that claim = alignment and it doesn't), and his late jump onto the Vecna wagon does sort of seem like scum jumping on for late towncred.

I think Penguin's early posting is okay. I don't like that he's disappeared, but once again, we're a pretty loquacious playerlist, so hard to tell if he's scum or just getting buried.

I'm not opposed to his lynch. My lynchpool is currently <hyung, Penguin, Reck, Titus>. Titus is not one I'm confident in either. Nor is Reck (although I've never had Reck above null-scum this game).

i got something last night too oOoOOOoo spooky

why is me forgetting i got something even remotely alignment indicative

you know it isn't, you're smarter than that
Oh, what'd you get?

I don't think it's scum indicative, otherwise I'd be voting you for it. But I still don't like it, especially since I feel like a scum-you could have been ignoring that there was no possibility for Pine to be a LR and you wanting to see if it would gain traction.

If we're talking about game IQ, I think you're definitely smarter than thinking an NSG townflip gives you
any
information about your supposed protection on Gooey, especially with my claim on the table. Even if NSG and I both got lynched, you'd still get
nothing
about your night action.

Really, the only reason NSG should be getting lynched is if you legimately think she'd flip scum (and I've already said I'm okay with this if the majority thinks this will be the case), but you've admitted to thinking she's town, so...

If NSG flips scum, we learn one of the following happened:

If NSG flips town, we learn one of the following happened:

-scum could've shot gamma (gamma is town, reck is maybe town)
But we have no way of knowing which is the case

If NSG flips town, scum leave Reck/Brian (and maybe Gamma alive), and we lynch Brian tomorrow (and he flips town), then we learn one of the following probably happened:
-scum could've shot brian (but we mislynched him for

because we're bad)

I don't think having hyung as null actually requires all that much justification - i think not having him as null or at least a very loose lean one way or another is what would require more justification, really.
I don't really understand this.

If he 'feels towny when he's here,' then why is he a null read and not a town read?

I think he's done more than to just be relegated to a nullread, and even if you think that should be the case here, scum generally avoid drawing too much attention and from my experience sometimes end up falling in that area for most players.

Without trying to come off as harsh or aggressive in the slightest, what's your point here? Are you saying that you think i should think of him as more towny? If it's that you think he should be higher in my readslist, i really don't think that matters all that much. Like, i'm not planning on pushing him today, i think it's probably unlikely that a wagon on him goes through today, so his relative position on a list that's really meant to just help me organize my thoughts more than anything else doesn't seem all that meaningful. If any of those things happened then it might matter more, i just feel like if that pops up, then it can be dealt with then.
Okay sure, I can see why this would be the case.

I mean, I'm clearly driving his wagon right now and he's one of the competing wagons to you and Penguin, so of course I care. Even if you don't think it's worth pursuing that read more, there are three people voting him right now, so...???

AFAICT, the wagons are pretty similar in size, so why are you making this distinction that hyung's an unlikely wagon to go through today? Unless you just think you're probably getting lynched today (I could see this happen). Penguin is a meh wagon overall, and while I think it's a wagon that could happen and I may even join it, nothing makes me think it will definitely go through today (and no one's stating anything solid on him other than he just isn't here).

I also questioned you bringing up old reads, because afaict, you updated them later in the day. So why not explain those instead? Why did you feel like it would be more productive to go back and explain older reads instead of the ones you have right now (or the ones you had listed most recently)?

Spoiler: Brian Quotes About Hyung Today
In post 3132, Brian Skies wrote:I think Penguin is an okay wagon. I prefer Hyung.

I think Hyung's Day 1 case is pretty convincing, and it makes me rethink how I've been reading Hyung this game. I also think that if NSG and I are both town, that scum could have avoided jumping on her yesterday for the roleblock claim.

Penguin didn't have a reaction toward the NSG wagon at all (whereas everyone else reacted to it at least in some way). Hyung's was king of suspicious in that he called her reaction town but hedged on it (Titus kind of said this yesterday).

Okay, to be fair I'm not doing a great job of driving the Hyung wagon, but that's because he isn't here and people want to talk about other things. I also feel like LLD did a better job than I would do on Day 1 and Titus did a passingly okay job of it Day 2. I'm also lazy and both want to see others that have expressed suspicion on their slot to help me push him (because I'm lazy) and to see how others feel about Hyung (nope, just one handful of people that argue with each other and express their reads while the rest do jack all).

I don't really want to do PbPA, but I don't think I can do it any other way without it being a completely unreadable and garbled wall (even moreso than the one I'm about to give you).

Day 1

, , : Early posting, not really scummy.
: Originally, I thought this was an okay reason for Hyung to suspect her, and thought he had the best reasoning to be on his wagon. Looking back, I don't get the same impression regarding Cheeky and don't see how it couldn't have just been Cheeky responding to T-Bone.
Spoiler: TBone+Cheeky+Hyung Posts in Juxtaposition
In post 323, T-Bone wrote:If you're legit confused that's fine. Here is the sequence of events. You did some things which I had commented on quite a few times. I then said, "at no point did I ever make a judgment about your alignment". You said, "Why not". And I said "Maybe you did it because you are insecure about your own abilities as a player. Maybe you did it because you are scum and you feel like "this is what town-me should do."" And then I explained that since voice that "you could be scum or town" amounts to empty content, it is not worth exploring...because everyone can be scum or town. And if I'm going to criticize players for empty content either now or in the future, I can't do it myself...because it isn't helpful for me or anyone else to find scum. Does that make sense?

As for Reck, he can do what he wants, it isn't my job to worry about whether someone is going to vote for me or not. It is my job to determine people's alignment and find scum. The statement by itself doesn't move the needle for his alignment to me, so I didn't react to it.

I don't feel that I (or any player, especially if they are also town) need to react to every single thing. It is okay to let other people play the game too.

this really comes across as scum throwing up walls preemptively. i didn't see anything from tbone that could cause such an over the top reaction. it's way more flustered than believable.

vote: cheeky

, : Some posts that generally look like sorting at first glance. I'm not digging the read on Firebringer and it seems more like something scum would say than something town would (in the sense that it's taken from a top-down view rather than something based on something more tangible or natural feeling).
, , , , , : All of these posts have the intention to shade Cheeky or continue to push her wagon without actually saying anything about her alignment. I do agree with LLD that his push against Cheeky up to this point feels more like him pushing something he thinks he can get lynched rather than him trying to actually sort Cheeky. Him throwing a tantrum about it also seems a little overblown and it's not like people don't see wagons fail to go through. (I was reading this as town frustration at the time, but I no longer feel this is the case)
: The readslist does look like some sort of sorting is going on, and I do not find his reads disagreeable (except for maybe like Pine). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
, , : My initial impression of these posts that they were too brazen to come from scum. Maybe I'm wrong? There are more of them, just don't feel like listing them all. Read above regarding tantrum.
, , , : These were all of his posts over the span of like four days or so (about a week if you include when he straight up left after we didn't give him the Cheeky lynch). There is a little bit of hypocrisy in 1724, but hypocrisy isn't really a scumtell.
, : Maybe this is an accurate read of Reck? Either way, this is another one of those top-down observations that I feel like scum are more likely to make than town. How does he know that Reck is just attacking people's townreads and sowing mistrust instead of just pushing people and sorting them? Bonus points for throwing shade on Cheeky and keeping his scumread consistent.
: This post is somewhat apathy inducing ('I'm unmotivated' + 'this day should have been over 40 pages ago'). He gives off a slightly superior tone regarding his reads, but doesn't actually do much to push either his Reck scumread or his Cheeky scumread. Also did not get a huge feeling that he really wanted Hiplop over AA9. I also get the feeling that Hyung could have been avoiding the AA9 wagon in general. Pine had already started fighting against the AA9 wagon in (maybe earlier), so can't really give him credit for his observations regarding AA9 and Hiplop, and when the AA9 wagon was gaining traction, he was voting Reck and doing almost nothing to fight the AA9 wagon.
: Pretty sure this is his read regarding AA9. Still feels like a top-down read.
: This post is okay, but only because I thought Hiplop was an okay wagon at the time (still kinda do). His opinion regarding the AA9 wagon here continues the trend of top-down.
: Can't say I have an issue with this post, especially given the context.
: Okay observation about Vax. I don't really think AA9 was an uncalled for scumread by Vax at the time, though. And I get why people would want to lynch her. He kind of just throws shade on Vax.
: Kind of hypocritical towards Vax (although once again, hypocrisy isn't really a scumtell). He throws more shade at Cheeky that both serves to throw her down as a scumread and to discredit her. He then throws in a little snippet about why he's apathetic and 'wow no one listens to me' even though he hasn't really been around to push his scumreads or put in a lot of effort to do so.
, , , , , , , , : These are Hyung's interactions with LLD (I skipped a few, not apologizing). 2060 gives off the impression that he did look to see what she's done, but the posts after don't really give a semblance of him trying to sort her or understand her. He 180's his read in the span of 2 posts (2069 and 2072), and the only difference is that LLD claimed to know something that she would have known immediately upon replacing in (that we almost lynched AA9). I did point out that LLD would know this, but Hyung never made any sort of reaction regarding it, so dunno.
: Hyung votes Vecna. I do not dislike this post in any way. But I also did not love the Vecna wagon. I still do not think Vecna had a useful role for scum to have, and the lack of any abilities I think would be useful to the scumteam makes me think he would have been an acceptable sacrifice for the scumteam. The Vecna wagon also happened very fast, whereas we had incredible issues pushing any other wagons through. Hyung was also the counterwagon.

Day 2

:This is his first post Day 2. I do think that scum would avoid the NSG wagon on Day 2 if NSG is town and this was a bad wagon. He calls the NSG wagon a bad wagon, but at the same time hedges on it ('she has a town reaction but she makes sense as the nightkill'). There is nothing that leads me to believe that he should have been avoiding that wagon or reacting to it in the way he did here. Granted I had a similar impression regarding the NSG wagon in my next post, but I explained that (I didn't like the way people were saying she was townish but had to be the lynch) and I'm a BULLETPROOF (so I didn't think it was a hard guilty anyway).
: Whiteknighting?
: I don't really have an issue with the Titus accusation. The comment regarding NSG here feels very out of place. If he thinks she's town, then why say she's the optimal lynch? It's like he's subtly trying to push the wagon through without attaching his name to it. The Reck thing is also odd. If he prefers Reck instead of Titus, why not just vote Reck? He claims it's because he doesn't think it would get support, but who cares? I unapologetically stole these thoughts from Titus, so credit to her here.
: Flyby comment shading the [NSG wagon?]. I'm actually not sure what he's shading, but I don't like this post since there isn't really any clarification and it's not like he's pushing against anything. He's actually saying the NSG wagon is an optimal lynch while avoiding it at the same time.
, , : He points out that Reck is scummy...but doesn't actually go into why this is the case. Instead he avoids it and reverts back to apathy.


He has not posted yet today (unless he did so as I was making this post, in which case I didn't read any of those posts that I missed).

Penguin next?

I'm okay with ending her before a potential LYLO situation if it becomes that big of an issue. But LYLO still seems pretty far away so...

And now a Penguin Wall, because why not?

Day 1

: RVS vote based on unofficial game discussion. There was a lot of it from Penguin. I skipped it and I'm not apologizing.
, : Okay post. Kinda looks like scumhunting.
, , : Votes Cheeky and the reasoning for it is
interesting
, I guess. I don't really think Cheeky's response in 157 was uncalled for. Kind of an overreaction.
, , : Pushes the Cheeky wagon. I find it kind of amusing, but not really alignment indicative.
, : These are okay responses regarding the shading thing. Pushback doesn't really feel scummy here.
: Another okay post.
, , : 513 is an okay post. Not really sure as to the purpose to him questioning about TBone being a 'bonehead'. Could just be a joke or something else?
: Does not feel like a scummy post and that he's actually interested in sorting Cheeky. Acknowledges his own absence and that he wants to do something about it (stark contrast to Hyung's attitude).
, ,: Honestly feels like he's interested in sorting Cheeky with these posts.
, : Okay reactions to Mutant.
: While it is true that Penguin seems overtly focused on Cheeky, I'm not sure that's scum-indicative.
: Questions Hyung. Meh post overall, but only because I don't think it's something scum couldn't do.
~There were some interactions between Cheeky and Penguin that I'm ignoring before Penguin seemingly got busy. He did claim a V/LA though and came back when it ended. And then he promptly disappeared for like almost a week between and .~
: Joined the Arc wagon because...? Didn't comment on anything else aside from that.
, : Some posts about replacing Hiplop that I don't really care about.
: His only contribution to the AA9 wagon is 'why haven't scum made sure this is lynched?' which I think is a weird thing to say in general. Also, he says it in a way where he's coming to some sort of revelation despite having already joined that wagon earlier, so...? Main response to knowing about gamestate is votecount in , so he was just voting AA9 because it was a big wagon?
: His literal next contribution is an L-2 vote on the Vecna wagon that ended the day.

Day 2

, : Interesting read on Ali here. Seems based on meta, but doesn't really delve into it and I'm not sure what he was doing with this.
, : Doesn't really react to the NSG wagon in any way.

In conclusion, I think Penguin's early contributions were okay and somewhat townish. I do think he was overtly focused on Cheeky early on. His jump on AA9 seems to have come after the wagon was already deteriorating. His vote on Vecna was near day end and was on scum, so ???. Idk, don't see how either of these are scum motivated. I also get the impression he's more likely to be buried town than actual scum.

I was not expecting to convince myself against his lynch before I made this wall, but there you go.

Okay. What's changed for you?

Just saying this doesn't do anything for me and he's already in my lynchpool, but he's not my preferred lynch by any means. If this is a direction you want to go, then you have to give reasons, and they should be good enough to persuade people over the current options we have now.

I don't consider BBmolla a lurker, unless you just think he's active lurking. I have not liked his contributions as of late, but I'm not sure that's alignment indicative.

Penguin's dropped off the map. Could be alignment indicative, could just be buried. I'd like him to come in and start posting before making an assessment on him. Even so, I don't think putting a wagon on someone who's disappeared and maybe lurking is the worst thing in the world.

Hyung has also disappeared. However, I think he's actually put in enough content to garner a read. And I'd like your opinion (and your read) on what he has posted and done thus far.

LLD should also be in your lurker pile, imo. But I don't think the lack of activity is alignment indicative for her. I'm townreading her from her interactions with Hyung.
In post 3453, Vaxkiller wrote:Alisea Most of thier posts have just been throwing fuel on the fire. And thier end of day posts to lynch hyuang sucked. It's one of the reasons I'm remember i need to town read hyuang. Also Where the fucka re they?
Can you quote examples of why you feel this way about Ali? I don't really get the same impression as you do. I'm also not really sure what you mean by Ali's end of day posts to lynch Hyung (which day? Day 1?).

What is your read on just 'Hyung'?

I do not think your vote placement right now is productive. The reason I asked you for your reads is because I felt like you were just standing on the sidelines. We are also deadlocked right now, and I think anyone not voting needs to either join one of the wagons or explain why they don't want to. I don't care about things like 'well, I just don't feel good about voting a lurker slot.' If you don't have a townread on them, I don't see why you can't join the wagon and help pressure them so we can either a) force them to do things or b) lynch a useless slot that isn't widely townread anyway.

I have zero issue with lynching a lurker slot. For Penguin, it could be alignment indicative. I don't think the Hyung wagon has anything to do with his 'lurking' (he just happens to be lurking now that there's pressure on him).

If you can convince me that way, then I'll join.

Otherwise, stfu and stop bitching about people being stubborn when you're clearly also in that group of players.

Like, the whole thing is predicated around the idea that Pine stopped the kill. Except you have not one, but two players who've claimed roles that could also have stopped the kill as well (one of whom is pushing the lynch for god knows what reason).

So obviously, we should defer back to play.

In post 3535, Gammagooey wrote:I feel like it makes sense for reck to behave this way given the state of the game atm and feel like he'll prob flip town
I don't. I think he's scummy and have thought so for almost the entirety of this game.
In post 2424, xRECKONERx wrote:okay if there are VTs that's interesting because i got one of those "lolnotaVT" role UT is fond of

i know this from modding so many games with him -- before putting in a VT, he would first put in a role that is effectively useless (like a fruit vendor)

but maybe he didn't do that this game. i dunno.

either way, something stopped the kill, and pine's the best thing we have to go on so far
The entirety of this post gives me the impression that Reck was indicating that he had a completely different role than the 2-Shot Doc he claimed today.

In fact, I'd even go as far as to say this post pretty much confirms to me that Reck's lying so he can lynch NSG.

He straight up claims 'lolnotaVT' role so I was expecting something similar to a Fruit Vendor or you know, NOT A DOC claim.

And the very last line indicates that he's disregarding any other possibility of something stopping the kill outside of Pine 'roleblocking' NSG. So him being a Doc and 'protecting Gamma' is out the window.
In post 2467, xRECKONERx wrote:we cant let you live until endgame regardless nsg and we have a rb on you at the same time as a no kill

like

even if you're town we can't let that live
because the best we would get would be a doctor going "oh ok well i protected someone and so i guess i couldve stopped the kill"
in which case we'd still need to lynch you first to confirm the doc/clear are town
You could argue that the bolded here is him softing that he's a doc, but I completely disagree and think he was just using it as an example to shutdown anyone claiming and potentially stopping the NSG lynchwagon that was about to happen.

I only see his play today as him going back and using this as an excuse for him hardpushing Pine's 'roleblock' so he can change direction from claiming the 'lol not a VT role' to a 'doc role that just wants information,' especially in the face of me stating that almost nothing he claims will make me think he's confirmed town (which is an assertion he's been trying to push all game and an angle I think is more likely to come from scum looking to ride on their claim than town who legitimately believe this). Which, by the way, his entire play surrounding the NSG lynch today has been 'I just want information' and not even 'I want to lynch scum.' So yeah, definitely more likely to be a scum-motivated play than a town-motivated one.

Not to mention that the first time he even hints at who he protected came today, after he was asked to claim, and not yesterday.
In post 2538, xRECKONERx wrote:Maybe that's not standard.

But I still find the claim to be a potential scum fakeclaim.

After all: easy excuse as to why Brian doesn't die at night (scum are scared of the BP) and lets scum make it impossible to verify Pine's roleblock is actually what stopped the kill.
And his initial reaction ot me claiming Bulletproof isn't 'oh hey, there's another role that could have stopped the kill, maybe it makes sense that NSG isn't roleblocked scum.'

His immediate reaction is to discredit my claim and set me up as fakeclaiming scum so he can continue to push the NSG wagon.
In post 2913, xRECKONERx wrote:my case is less "nsg is scum and also roleblock" it's "nsg has a higher than normal likelihood of being scum due to the rb claim and her lynch will clear up some confusion around roles"
Like, nobody should be townreading this.
In post 3308, xRECKONERx wrote:okay fuck it in case i get modkilled:

I am MATI All-Natural Healthy Energy Drink, two shot doctor
i give people an extra boost of energy at night through my No Added Sugars formula

when i said my role would be conf'd alone it was to Gammagooey & hiplop, who were both at Survivormeet and know the existence/history of the MATI meme, which UT would *never* make as scum

however N1 I protected Gammagooey and there was no kill
I protected him again N2 because I'm an idiot and forgot about the Pine claim when I sent in my action

that's why I pushed so hard for the nsg lynch because i wanted to see if it was true and whether i can actually treat gamma as probably town
And nothing about this claim screams town to me. It just raises more questions.

Like, he thought he'd be able to bank on being modconfirmed because of
just
two people? Who cares about Survivormeet, most of us weren't even there.

And then he claims 2-Shot Doc. Not even full doc. You could argue that he could be trying to pull a gambit as a full Doc, but this mostly just gives him an excuse to not get shot and continue further in the game and not be suspected for it.

For the record, I do believe he's Mati, I just don't think he's town.

what the fuck are you talking about though. i was the biggest person screaming at titus for how stupid a fucking lightning rod was. how was i "seeing if it would gain traction" by shouting it down

it does give me information, sorry bud
And then there's this random claim that he received Google Glass.

After
I was giving Titus shit yesterday for not so much as even looking Reck's direction for the redirecting bullshit she was pushing.

Not to mention that it would mean I'd have to believe that maf CHOSE to not mess with Pine's Roleblock last night so they could
intentionally
give it to Reck instead. And I feel like that's way less likely than just redirecting Pine onto Fire in the first place.

My point here was the stupid fruit vendor bullshit that UT uses in every game that is effectively useless but replaces the "lol VT" roles

like it has been a thing in every game i modded with him.

"i got one of those" means "i got an item from one of those roles"
The first line indicates that you received the role, not an action. So no, I don't believe that you were claiming that you received 'an item from one of these roles.'

And the last line pretty much indicates that you have no reason (or were indicating that you have no reason) to believe anything else could have stopped Pine's roleblock. As do your actions. So your claim is full of shit.

good job
I do not believe you were softing here, and it only feels like you knowing something stopped the kill and trying to keep that person from claiming.

If this was you softing, then you should have also softed your target, to which you didn't, so no go.

yes brian

i faked a conversation in which the moderator of this game slipped to me

then pre-empted the moderator of this game by posting in thread about something i knew before the moderator posted it

then fretted about getting modkilled, which led to me fullclaiming in case of a modkill

only to clear a scumbuddy who i hammered moments before deadline

jesus fucking christ im going to change my vote to cancel this game if the only other option is "deal with morons"
I mean. The idea that the Votecount PT was set up because scum bitched about it is definitely something that is more likely to be confirmed by NSG, no (she should probably be able to see when it started assuming she got access to the same Votecount PT)?

But yes, I do think it's possible you could have faked this conversation. Otherwise I wouldn't bother mentioning it.

I do not care about the rest of your response to me here. I don't see how any of your reactions couldn't have been faked ('omg I might be modkilled for talking about a conversation I had with the mod' :roll: ).

There is nothing you can say to me that will convince me that you're town or that I shouldn't lynch you. In the same vein as your reason to lynch NSG, I will say that a Reck flip or a Brian flip will give as much information about a No Kill on Night 1 as an NSG flip would (which is none at all), and I think you're scummy anyway (which is more than you've said about NSG all game). Aside from a Hyung lynch (who is still probably just scum), I'm going to votepark you for the rest of this game until one of us dies (or I get replaced).

if so please post why b/c I have no idea what posts you like/don't like from her

like did anything today from her seem particularly town to you?
I think I've talked about NSG a lot throughout this game.

I don't really understand what your issue with her play today is. The only interesting things I could find from you were that her reads were similar to yours (why is this a thing?) and that Penguin/NSG could be having a wait off. Personally, I sometimes have issues with people who have reads that are too similar to mine, but that's because I've had scum mirror my reads before (and I sometimes have a really wrong or scummy perception of the game). I also feel like Penguin is a slot that needs/needed to get pushed, and it's not like NSG was doing nothing while waiting for him to come back to contribute (not to mention our 2-week deadline which is definitely contributing to the apathy, and Penguin has to post at some point during this time or get replaced, so who cares?). So this feels like a Penguin issue and not an NSG issue.

Why do you think Reck's play is town?

I do read the stuff you say. I just said I don't care and that I'm going to lynch you anyway.

What perfectly reasonable explanations? You mean the ones that explain how NSG could be town and why she shouldn't be the lynch? How you're mostly looking to just get a lynch and not actually trying to analyze the game and figure out who scum is?

If anything, the description you gave on me here is a description of your own play regarding NSG, not mine.

And unlike you, who doesn't even think NSG is scum, I actually think you're scum.

If you hate this game so much, then let us lynch you so we can end whatever misery you're pretending to have.

In post 2510, Brian Skies wrote:My main issue with North yesterday was that I didn't like her case on GE and I didn't feel like she was taking in the context around the game to develop that read on him (she didn't fully assess all his posts and I'm still not sure if she knew the game didn't begin immediately or not). Didn't really like her brushing off GE either when he was trying to interact with her (but she did eventually respond to him). Her flipping her read on GE when he replaced out was also pretty ??? to me.

I also didn't have the impression that she was really scumhunting that much or trying to figure people out.

But after looking at her posting again, I feel like I may have been holding her to some unfair standard, and maybe her V/LA kind of impeded her early contributions a bit. Particularly in her early interactions with T-Bone where she said he was overly focused on one thing but she wasn't really sure if that was scummy or not, or her interactions with Vax regarding Mutant. I also don't completely hate her push on me (regarding the case I made against T-Bone to which she did revisit later in the day and I didn't think that felt scummy to me; and it's pretty similar to how I felt about her case on Gamma, so maybe we're just looking past and not understanding each other).
^I'll give you a pass since I have a pretty big iso, but I said this about her yesterday.

I'm also pretty sure you had an issue with her seeming defensive yesterday, but I don't think that's a fair assessment considering she was the LIKELY LYNCH and Reck was being a blatant scumfuck. Most of the discussion centered around lynching her, and there were a handful of people not doing anything and hiding behind Pine's 'roleblock.' I think it's okay for a player to fight their own wagon, if not only to help analyze her wagon and why people are voting her so she can sort her reads.
In post 3554, Gammagooey wrote:I'll probably explain a bit more of my opinion on reck later tonight or friday night, but he's a lazy fucko when he can get away with it regardless of his alignment and it certainly hasn't felt like there's been a reason to pop in and do anything when it's been impossible to get an actual wagon on anyone largely because there are 3 people who haven't voted anyone for an entire damn week. And it sure does look like he was at least planning to claim doc since the start of d2 given the crumbs he pointed out.

Like he's not scum if NSG is scum and I don't see a strong reason from NSG's play from today and yesterday for her to be town. I also think that IF NSG is town then penguin's dicking around with half-assed questions for a full week hoping that other people will push it through instead of him having to actually make a choice and vote one way or the other on it looks way worse than reck admitting he doesn't have a strong scumread on her and just wanting her dead because of the roleblock.
I think Reck is just scum here. The only way I'll even entertain an NSG lynch is if I'm promised Reck's flip if she flips town (I want his flip regardless, I just don't trust any of you to lynch him).

Penguin is an okay lynch, I guess. I would still like a Hyung lynch even though he's getting replaced (I just don't think anyone would vote that slot if no one's around to defend it).

tldr is we have to lynch nsg because we can't let a potential scumkill get blocked and not test it, but there's a slight possibility skies ate the shot with his bp vest if the claim is true (or some other combination of things happened)
i also breadcrumbed doc here after the stopped kill
Yeah, but that came after I already claimed. So idgaf.

Or you're actually a scum doc.

Or you're the town doc that can't be trusted to actually protect the people that matter (rip Pine), and you're play is so detrimental to town that you should be the lynch since we're better off without you.

And I still think you're scum.

It's okay. Only half of us are actually playing. And if you skip Day 1, it's not actually that much.

In post 3569, MariaR wrote:All I see atm are loud voices yelling at Reck for claiming doc.
I like this already
There was no kill on N1.

Pine claimed to roleblock NSG.
I claimed Bulletproof.
So logically speaking, Pine's roleblock isn't a hardguilty.
But yet, this is pretty much the only thing some people are capable of arguing about since the start of Day 2.

Reck mostly pushed for NSG's lynch because 'information' and he doesn't even think NSG is scummy.
Today we asked him to claim and he claimed 2-Shot doc with a protection on Gammagooey N1. So he should have known that Pine's Roleblock wasn't a hard guilty, but he can't be assed to assess NSG's play.

Now he's citing crumbs, one of which came
after
I already claimed Bulletproof. And he's also trying to use another post as a crumb, although it mostly just feels like he was scum knowing someone prevented the kill and that he didn't want them to claim.

Reck has no interest in actually sorting this mess. He just wants a lynch. And his bullshit about an NSG lynch telling us what actually happened on Night 1 is bullshit because assuming he is telling the truth about protecting Gamma Night 1 and NSG flips town, we still wouldn't know whether the kill was stopped by him or me.

Also he didn't even protect Pine, our claimed Roleblocker. So fuck him.

In post 3572, xRECKONERx wrote:but but but pine wasn't confirmed RB i thought??????

that was your whole argument for not wanting to go through on the nsg lynch

that's LITERALLY YOUR WHOLE POINT

and yet now it's OH WELL YOU OBVIOUSLY SHOULD'VE PROTECTED PINE EVEN THOUGH I MYSELF SAID HIS RB CLAIM WASN'T VERIFIED

what is this scum logic
When the hell did I say that he wasn't confirmed RB? It's true that he wasn't, but why does this matter?

My literal argument isn't even that 'Pine isn't confirmed Roleblocker.' I thought he was probably town and stated as such anyway. I just don't think his claimed action was a hard guilty.

Like literally, there are THREE claimed roles that could've stopped the kill (mine, yours, and Pine's). So the correct play is to disregard Pine's actions and actually assess NSG off of play. Which you can't be assed to do, because you're scum.

I would be okay with being lynched, but only if it means that people stop bitching about Pine's claim being some magical hard guilty on NSG when it isn't. And also if you all promise to lynch Reck for being a blatant scumfuck.

instead of protecting the person i protected n1 who I had a big town read on and thought scum may try to kill again if they failed the first time???
Also this is so fucking disingenuous and false.

And if you're actually a doc, then YOU OF ALL PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE FUCKING KNOWN BETTER THAN TO PUSH THAT SHIT.

It isn't a hard guilty on a slot and people pushing that are more then likely scum just read the slot itself and base it on that.
Guess who's just blindly pushing it?

RECK!

Like, if you thought Pine had a guilty on NSG, then WHY NOT FUCKING PROTECT THE CLAIMED ROLEBLOCKER WHO CAN BLOCK SCUM AND FIND US MORE SCUM?

Like, this is such a bullshit excuse to not protect Pine and explain away a lack of protection on that slot.

I mostly explained it as me just as easily being the cause of the lack of NK as him roleblocking NSG, which is true.

And then I asked for people to explain how NSG's play was scum-indicative and that I would vote there if someone could convince me. To which no one did.

In post 3598, xRECKONERx wrote:actually brian why didn't you ever doubt pine's claim? you and nsg both seemed to immediately be like "yes he is a roleblocker uh-huh it's just irrelevant"

that's weird to me and i don't know how to read it. i think as town you'd be more suspicious of the rb if you don't believe nsg was the kill source.

i sorta found it shocking that people believed brian was a strong nk target because he wasn't standing out to me as some bastion of townieness d1 but maybe he was, i dunno

trying to get as many thoughts out there before i have to go
I can't remember the exact reasoning. There may have been some interactions between Vecna/Pine that made me think he was town, and I didn't really think scum would immediately jump in at the start of the day with a claimed Roleblock (especially since he didn't seem to be in a position where he needed to do that if he were scum).

I didn't even really think that I had to be the nightkill, but I also didn't think that I couldn't have been, especially since I feel like I was one of the more active and more widely townread players (and I did state this when I claimed).

Firebringer is weirding me out, with his whole sudden defense of Cheecky. Im a sucker for the meta-argument but this one seems really thin and weird. How do people manipulate stuff in this setting and so early? Why were those responses to getting near-hammered not manipulative in nature?

Pine is giving me some flashbacks to civ mafia, just packaged different. Id jump on that bandwagon anytime.

While reading up, nothing that penguin did left any impression, which is probably bad.

MutantDevle could be scum

Vax could be scum

Pretty decent list of mild townreads but I cba listing them or going into them right now
Firebringer and Pine are definitely town.
PP, Mutant, and Vax probably have 1 wolf max in it.

That certainly was my first impression yes, since your tone and irritation levels are on overkill.......However, there's something also fundamentally different in how you approach the game and interact with people. Youre not trying to shy away from critical evaluation to the same extent, and instead of dismissing people their crap as crap, youre actually appear to be trying to read into it, instead of just flatly dismissing it.

The fact you'd think id scumread you here for it, makes me think youre not completely aware of that distinction, making me think its unlikely to be faked to appear different.

I think you just made it to my never-lynch list
Gamma could be a wolf

I expect theres a scum in fire and pine. Not sure if both would try this overbearing gimmick where they simultaneously buddy cheeky, but theres something fishy going on there. Pines response when i made the throwaway statement that he wouldn't make such a comment about teammates also struck me as odd. (and the sort of pridefull statements scum often make when they did in fact did said thing).

I want my penguin to come in here and talk some sense to me.

Yeah Fire + Pine both town

Last game i played with that aa9 the exact same thing happened. extra effort was promised but never came, resulting in a later game lynch on the slot. It was done as town tmaa9 that game, but its not like that means its ai this game.

I have no faith whatsoever that contribution is ever gonna come. A lynch is gonna happen on the slot regardless.
AA9 could be town?


In post 1982, Vecna wrote:vaxkiller is like the all town wagon. hop on hop on
Vax is probably town.
There was this post from Ali that I said I mostly agreed with.

Looking back, I'm pretty sure I was townreading Pine because of Vecna calling Pine scum, saying Pine's play was similar to his play in Civilization Mafia but just packaged differently. And I inherently disagreed with that and didn't think it was a S/S interaction (although I don't have a particular reason for thinking it wasn't S/S outside of it just being completely awful.).

Congrats scumteam. Nice try town.

Super disappointed T-Bone replaced out when he got pressured.

LLD earned this win though. I'm not sure I would have figured her out if I had stayed.
