Scum are playing a splendid game by day I guess. There is NO ONE that I'm
confident
they'd flip red.

@Taly: Seriously now.. why am I in your suspects/lynch pool still? And how would my flip help you reconsider your reads? (Hint: To save yourself some effort, just assume I am today's lynch and I flipped GREEN. So what next?)

Hmm. What if a pool of five pick a certain player and the other ten don't want that player lynched but are dispersed in such a way that the five get a majority? Can we do a lynch count and a definitely not lynch count with one each?

IE

Lynch:
Sky -
A50 -
Profii - Skygazer
HWS -
xyzzy -

Save:
Sky -
A50 -
Profii -
HWS -
xyzzy - Skygazer

@Taly
– Please don’t start some pseudo-vote project this close to deadline. It is only going to sidetrack the Town in general when we need to get a lynch complete. Pick your candidate and push them. Even if it isn’t Sky you need to narrow your focus at this stage.

So you are saying that you’ve adopted an artificial playstyle this game just like Geriatric White Flag?

At this point I probably would not grouse about an A50 lynch. Because I have to recognize that maybe my Elbirn read was playstyle related and A50 keeps shoving his scum playbook in my face.

In post 2857, Inferno390 wrote:I’m going to also come back to this in my ISO, but that attack on me from MoI earlier...
I was thinking about it, and I realized that I haven’t actually been “irrationally tunneling” anyone this game, nor have I had a “complete lack of logic.” However, that sounds suspiciously like some of my early games.

So in other words, that post is a very unnecessary attack on me that doesn’t actually address what I said combined with an apparent meta dive that came out of nowhere.
This is exactly why I said what I did. Ever since I’ve called you out on bad / poor posts you’ve been in “MoI is scum because he’s mean to me mode”. And you’ve been bending over backwards to call me scum for any reason you think can stick, despite multiple other players telling you that you are being bad. That’s irrational tunneling to a tee. Frankly I don’t bother addressing your posts because … it isn’t worth my time. I need to help lynch scum not argue with randomlikelyTowniewhoisplayingderpandgetshisfeelingshurt.com that they are being bad.

You almost got another Dunce.gif for somehow thinking I would bother to meta-dive you with my limited time and knowing that I don’t scum read you. But I opted to try to be a bit more pleasant.

That's you sayin'. To me the duck is the

Listen, if you're so sure I'm scum ho ahead and vote me. See if I care.

The explanation was for those who might care to learn to read me (and believe it or not there are people who have developed some way of reading me). As for you, you just won't get that
I play differently in every game
, and that I am fully aware of what I did in the previous game I was with you, so it's nigh impossible for me to use the same trick in your presence.

Just lynch me to verify the above-mentioned fact, and let's see if you can win the game on your own (because believe it or not, I am one of your best assets in this game still .. if you are Town that is.)

This is a rather curious assessment of the situation. I clearly think Aus is likely scum and haven’t been shy about saying so. Many others have expressed degrees of concern about this. And the Visitor role is not really tangential at all to the Vendor roles given it can only prove to a Tracker / Watcher Inferno’s slot didn’t make the NK.

How much of the game have you read? How much of Day 2?

So you don’t see him as SK claiming the shot even when HitAlt basically guiltied him? Hmmm ….

Smells like scum who doesn’t want to cast shade at the likely SK to avoid being shot.

Ok

VOTE: Almost50

Because this whole response stinks. Especially the part where you side-swipe at me pretending I’m “trying to do it all myself” when I clearly wanted Andy here to tag team the scum into oblivion and have been trying to cultivate a relationship with Taly.

Agreed! It's close to being Odd Night. Still there's a gap there where a Non-Prime-Numbered "something" could be fitted. Again, if we have 2 VFs and a Visitors scum has to have something to counter that or we would have 2 confirmed townies each night (or a guilty instead of one). EVEN assuming the FVs are the only alignment investigatives we've got that's already overpowered. Now add a Follower and you'd see scum are defenseless if all they had was Dram's role in that department.

@Taly: Seriously now.. why am I in your suspects/lynch pool still? And how would my flip help you reconsider your reads? (Hint: To save yourself some effort, just assume I am today's lynch and I flipped GREEN. So what next?)
1)
Half of your votes and reads this dayphase have been based off "sheeping" someone or something. You haven't voiced much of any independent thought beyond you assessing how people WOULD read you. , ,

2)
You also use the term "sheeping" a bit too much... In , you directly ignored the posts I've made to back-up my thoughts in this game and painted me as though I'm trying to get people to sheep me versus actually working with me.

3)
With that said, I didn't like your early assessment of my posts, and your response to my scumread on
you/HWS
being terrible and you flippantly replying to me is unhelpful.

4)
You believe I'm confbiased but you don't change that, you essentially have the mentality that I should just leave you alone and have you take the NK when you've ALREADY claimed VT in a multiple-PR game.

The only major points I have to townread you on what I COULD HYPOTHETICALLY infer based off what limited info. I have on your gameplay, and you having the
"Go ahead and vote me"
next to the
"I'm pushing against my lynch but not pushing another person"
mentality ALONGSIDE
profii
practically giving himself up to rope is anti-town.

Bottom Line:
There's nothing in your ISO that specifically points to you for being town from what I've seen of you, and your posts have not helped me resolve my other reads this dayphase just like several other players, nor have they helped me resolve my thoughts on you.

I can see rationale for you being town, but just like
Profii
and just like
xyzzy
, and maybe even
Sky
.

But your play right now, pinges me hard.

And if you flipped town, I don't quite know what my reads would be. They'd change my thoughts on the rest of the lynchpool, and maybe even outside of that.

Tell me who you think should be the lynch.

Yeah, I don't think what I proposed earlier was a great idea

But I'm very close to closing my eyes, and picking a name out of a cup on who I'm sticking on for lynching today.

It's gotten that bad.

Good is a subjective descriptor of a moral or qualitative state perceived to desirable. It is a lesser qualitative degree than best and opposite to bad.
