Probably saud. Still need to see more from him though. Haven't seen enough to make me comfortable with him likelier town or likelier scum.

Similar thing here, but even less.

He is just sheeping, regardless of alignment, but he didn’t town read the seph slot, which i don’t think people should have at the time.

I also feel like Performer’s been trying to slowly buddy up to me. This slot could be town or scum with town or seph scum, really, though.

@profi LOL how atrocious of you to tell people that at work.
@FL I hard disagree though I see where you come from in that approach. I always strongly believed we need to protect our prs and having a mod-confirmed town is an outrageously strong asset to fight scum. My NRG knowledge already thinks this setup of shortening day phases, is likely deadly enough with possibly multiple night deaths. With all that said , if you get protected and survive into d2, that's a huge asset.

@seph why I'm scumreading is is because of this quote + any other townread on the wagon + I like wagons (see my profile) + day 1 ends this week iirc + I'm never fond of deadline lynches + if we end up with no lynch it's a bad idea + I've had nos tr in the nos v you debate

So I really didn’t like DVA’s argument with a Sephiroth and the entirety of the lynch pool mentality.

To me, it comes off like DVA isn’t looking for scum, she’s looking to stay politically favored, and find some kind of compromise lynch, or mislynch, should I add.

I noticed this before I made my entrance into the game, and was rereading the game entirely, I almost wanted to tunnel DVA right then and there, but I needed more. I needed to see that it wasn’t just personality. I needed a wagon.

And while I did scum read Seph and Max, I chose to take a blind eye to DVA so I could read them, because they came off as super scum to me.

The moment that hit me the most just now, was her argument with Sephiroth.

Not unlike profii’s last comment, it looks as if DVA was looking for a reason to help give Sephiroth that little oomph it needed to get closer to a hammer. She was looking for the flawed play to pounce on.

If seph was scum, sure, dva’s likely not scummwith him, but my scum read on Seph has definitely dissipated, and I feel that scum is on the Seph wagon.

That entire conversation with Seph DVA has comes off decent considering at the time the general consensus was SCUM SEPH, but without that, DVA looks to be pushing a blatant scum agenda.

@Perf - oh, don’t get me wrong, I agree with that. But it helps to draw the scum’s eye naturally away.

I’m talking strictly from the scum’s perspective.

There’s also a few posts from people not on the wagon that stood out to me.

They came from XX, Nosf, and AP.


Maxous keeping out of the clear still indicates scum there.

My best guess right now is DVA, Maxous, one of XX/Nosf/AP, and one of Profii/Performer.

I’m leaning Nosf and Profii, however, even semi town reading AP/Perf.

Yeah, or maybe he called me "disingenuous" for saying to take his time and reread the thread.

Like maybe I have an agenda, or maybe he was acting like a douche and I stopped caring what his alignment was

Through my entire read through I was thinking “yup, one of Nosf or Seph are definitely scum”

And it’s Seph.
I'm astounded that people actually read an interaction that was literally getting worked up by emboldened text

and went "yup there's scum there."

amazing

VOTE: max

My first post that pinged me was by Nosf when I brought up one of Nosf and seph being scum. This was a sheep vote onto Maxous. This is prime time for a bus vote that isn’t expected to go much because I literally had ZERO reasoning.

Which also falls in line with Profii then going on to vote Seph. Profii’s a Boon Babe, we’d already established a link between us this game,p. It was expected of me to look into what he was saying.

This incited the Seph wagon, that Nosf had put a high town read on. That would have given Nosf town cred.

Why does everybody bring up policy lynching so often? I have NO CONFIDENT SCUM READS. I thus opt to use my gut and I know my gut isn't a good tool (some players have good gut reads, but I'm not one of those), but I have no better alternative.

I don't expect two scum to be doing this, though, for that would attract too much attention, especially due to the fact that this 1v1 lasted for a long time in terms of pages, and anyone skimming through the game could have noticed it.

I can find zero explanation from you about it.
Instead you're just trying to get people to prove he's town.
Regarding dva's post, it does not say that Sephiroth and flubber are scummy. It only asks if anyone can find anything towny about them, which I think is a rhetorical question. I have mixed feelings towards flubber right now.

And it’s Seph.
I'm curious as to why you think Seph is scum. I'm doing an iso on him when I get the time to do so, but I'd like to know your perspective.
Xx was not on the Seph wagon, but he was voting him earlier. He commented on the Nosf vs Seph.

He eventually votes DVA.

This could be a Seph/xx pairing, but i don’t see xx playing that way. This is pretty genuine coming from XX.

I’m gonna throw a town read here actually.

And then I’ve already brought up the AP contradicting lynchpool and wagon formation.

I agree that the wagon was a lot, though, and it seemed like AP was in some sort of confusion, but knew something wasn’t up, and his reads weren’t all there, which it shouldn’t need to be, it’s Day 1 in a large.


DVA, Nosf, profii, Maxous is where I’m at right now.

Also note the difference between DVA arguing with me than DVA working with other people.

I clearly have put some analysis and logic into my cases, it doesn’t mean I’m correct.

This implies I’m hitting a right trail, possibly for reasons DVA doesn’t think should exist and is an attempt to discredit.

What does post count have to do with anything?

I’ve had over 1k posts as scum.

And instead of blindly attacking, show you are town then. Analyze elsewhere. Put the work in.

Idk what about that concept goes over people’s heads.

I thought nos vs seph was a town vs town to be honest. His defeatist attitude (1042) is kinda strange but I don't feel it's really alignment indicative with him being the main wagon. As I can get the same way when I'm a wagon as town.

This is how the wagon looks like to me

I'm going to say saudade is town because his not playing the same way in this game as his last scum game. I think I got a grasp on how he plays.

I think the fact a scum read of mine is on it early on it enforces my town read on the slot.

This seems like a strong overreaction which means you must be feeling pressure.

Just because the case isn’t wrong, doesn’t mean it doesn’t have merit. Those things are actually good to have in the game.

No matter what you say, it’s not a bad case. It’s a case that came from the perspective of a town player, just explaining what they took on a situation, that in itself means it’s not bad. I even stated it might not be correct. It’s day 1. Show it’s incorrect by doing townie things, npdont just say it’s wrong and expect people to believe you.

I didn’t even vote you, and you felt this much pressure. To me, that doesn’t come across as townie.

I also got the impression he's good at scum, and his play isn't at all "good" if he is indeed scum.


It fo;;ows that I want to give him his space and with people ganging up on him I think it's more likely scum are afraid of him than it is that he's so obv scum to 7 slots when he should be NAI at best.

@Garmr - to be fair, I don’t believe Creature had any real credit for being on the wagon. It took off regardless of him being on it.
