What's funny is I feel like I had a very similar reaction to bob saying he thought it was Exilon at 5 way, where I said it was spicy and then just thought about it for a bit without really saying much, and then later talked to exilon. But somehow when you do it with gamble it seems scummy to me. I feel like maybe you would ask him about that read given you in that scenario are not an IC in 5-way, but someone talking to someone who just gave an against-the-grain read relatively early in the game. Like, "why skitter?" maybe?-

skim through hrg again for me? and don't forget the predecessor. I think that's our best shot today tbh

not really feeling a vote there rn
Conversely, if you're going to get skitter to townread you, bussing someone she townreads and then getting her to talk you out of it is like, basically the way to manipulate her.In post 1223, u r a person 2 wrote:help me see it?
I do wonder about the town thought process behind "help me see it?"
Like in this moment you're getting town to towncase your scumbuddy while distancing. (if you're scum)
I get what you mean why this would be 'a good performance' but that doesn't mean it *can't* come from scum.-

I don't understand why undercutting a consensus town read is a townie move? Bob was not a slot where it was difficult to argue against a town read by that point in the game. And he was a slot that scum would have liked to have open for a mislynch, if they could have managed it.In post 1063, Egix96 wrote:In post 987, Garmr wrote:Bob is town.In post 991, Inferno390 wrote:Yeah Bob is town here.

This is a pretty good scum opening but it still shows the hallmarks of uncomfortable scum. He tries to make a joke with both the "Town AGAIN? Really? Sigh..." and the "No naked votes allowed reeeeeeeee" but the first part comes across as awkward and the reasoning is actual reasoning for a vote, cloaked as a joke, rather than pure nonsense.
I think this is actually exactly the type of opening you should expect from solid players who have been around for a hot minute.103-11 0-2-

I think he's taking a stance (null or worse on bob) that isn't going to get him heat or really change the conversation significantly. And maybe it plants a seed of doubt in people's minds about bob in the best of circumstances.In post 2347, Detective Pikachu wrote:@Urap, what exactly do you see as the scum motivation in writing 1063?
I think most of the iso is the same motivations: Do as little as possible, stay out of the limelight, make just enough reads to never be the lynch. I haven't looked back but I'm sure he doesn't keep pushing that town read, or really engage on it. It's scum blasé.103-11 0-2-

it was a two-banger, if I remember correctly.In post 2352, Detective Pikachu wrote:I do wonder about the town thought process behind "help me see it?"
1) I'm still trying to sort skitter at this point. I'm sure I was calling her town in the thread, but I'm pretty sure by this point paranoia had started sinking in a little bit. So I was asking for more than just "I think they are town" in order to hear her response and help sort her.
2) skitter had great town!equity, regardless of point 1, and she's a great player. So if she was confident on a town read, I literally wanted her to help me see it, and maybe start building a solid town bloc
that was the motivation103-11 0-2-

I dunno how i missed the over-explaining
but this would also make a shit ton of sense for how I'm interpreting this gamestate rn
Obvious case of bussing

That seems like a good place to take a break for today
Maybe we should proceed immediately to the dance off phase instead?-

Can we have a side conversation on whether rule of 3 is a real thing or notIn post 2325, Egix96 wrote:
Manipulative language central.In post 844, u r a person 2 wrote:Hey, do you guys thinkrui rui would be more likely to check into this thread prior to the deadline as town or as scum? Scum, yeah?
And even if you don't think it's alignment indicative,I think we can all agree that it's pretty anti-townto not be around much at all in the last few days before the deadline while being wagoned?
This is clearly the better choice for today, andI'm disappointed with those of you who did not see that.

i was exaggerating a bit. I think I could, but I it would be tough. skitter is a force, and inferno was pretty loud. It was stressful as town so I think I would have had trouble as scumIn post 2362, Detective Pikachu wrote:

1/6th -- also the exact ratio of selecting a scum totally randomly in this game for a scum player (3/13 --> 2/12 if you are scum)
vis-a-vis, if Ausuka includes lists twice in the game with 3 names, and in only one of the two times does she include all three names, thus resulting in a 1/6th likelihood that scum includes a scum name in their list of 3... then therefore the likelihood that a scum list of three includes 1 scum name vs 0 scum names is exactly the same as a totally random guess (1/6).
*maths*
