Open 753: Nomination Mafia [Game Over!]

[Vedith]

I like his face and posts.

[scum reading]

Well, as I said, a 50/50 at best and if not, all 3 of them are town so one has to be lynched regardless, given that all 3 of them are probably the towniest, we take an L for today

VOTE: Shoshin

[Irrelephant11]

Hmmm
Why Shoshin over Volxen, Vedith?

[Irrelephant11]

Never mind I misread the last page

[Vedith]

Scum reading maybe scum after that post.

[scum reading]

You’d rather have Volxen lynched? He’s obvtown

[scum reading]

Shoshin is scummy af, Irrelephant is not and Volxen just made a whole case on how he’s town with this nomination and I buy it, solid case

[scum reading]

Vedith, are you clemency’s replacement?

[Shoshin]

SR, unvote while you give me a chance to town case myself.

The idea of killing the stronger townie instead of the stronger scum among a group of three likely townies doesn't make any sense by the way.

What's obvious town there?

DemonLord I think

[DoubtingThomas]

[Vedith]

I'll survive knowing that.

[DoubtingThomas]

oh the you is to shoshin, not you. you are a good player

this is actually a good point on shosin and vedi.


who is stronger scum? And ftm, who would you least like to have in a lylo?

[DoubtingThomas]

townies don't "wait to towncase" themselves

[DoubtingThomas]

Scum reading maybe scum after that post.

can u expalin

[DoubtingThomas]

shoshin gave a really poor, unexplained "locktown" read on SR. SR's vote just now has a really good chance of being a bus, tbh

[Irrelephant11]

VOTE: volxen

[DoubtingThomas]

VOTE: volxen

why?

[Auro]

Right now, I'd prefer Irre for the lynch.

I'm interested in Shoshin's towncase. I don't think self-meta is scummy, it's actually pretty useful.

While all three are probs town, it seems like there's no objectively strong reason to TR Irre over the other two; and it is also established that he's a very competent scum player. The admitted self-awareness coupled with it makes a lot of his towny-looking posts null in reality as Shosh points out, and the prior likelihood of scum!Irre nominating himself from being generally townread is also high.

I was worried that Volxen+Fusco was a team taking a risk with Volxen's sudden burst of activity in D2; I was starting to think he was following an agenda with the {Irre/Auro} push - which would massively benefit scum!Volxen, and with Fusco's 1553. However, Volxen did begin to re-evaluate, and his droppping that line while beginning to solve between the rest of the playerlist aggressively removed any paranoia there. The Shoshin vote isn't consistent with his Fusco push though, and I'm waiting for him to answer on that.

I'm interested to know what makes Scum Reading "locktown" as well - the tone in his posts feels fake to me, with repeated use of phrases like "solid case"/"solid defense".

townies don't "wait to towncase" themselves

What's the problem with towncasing oneself? They provide reasons they're town - and leave you to evaluate said reasons. Towncasing yourself is itself NAI, but the case itself could be useful in establishing/cementing a read.
