Larges are literally the one game type where thread throughput is like really important to win % and neighborhood PTs are a legitimate power role.
Deasvail also wants to lynch my slot if I'm not "impressive". That's... unfortunate.
Why are you attributing blame for the 1v1 stuff with Kublai to me? I responded to Kublai saying things about me, then in response to a questions I went (admittedly a bit OTT) RAWR RAWR, then I realised the RAWR RAWR was OTT and unhelpful and probably inaccurate and quite intentionally disengaged. (I need to make it clear that I don't think Kublai was anti-town from it either)
I am genuinely curious though, because I wouldn't have thought that the logical perception was that I was anti-town from it.
But given that you obviously seem concerned about my need for you to "impress", I can't shake the feeling that you're trying to discredit me?

Now regarding Eyes, I actually really like Roster's case. I think it's a good case. Similar to Niko in some ways I think there's a lot of INFORMATION in Eyes' posting and (lol throwback to end of Day 1) I still find it difficult to parse!
More than most reads, I can see a world where I'm wrong, but if I had to call it, I'd go with town here.
The few things that stand out to me are:
I would feel super awkward saying something like this as scum. I would even feel awkward saying it as town out of fear that I'd look scummy! That's how awkward it is!
1062,
1064,
1065 - I don't think scum would have the gall to gloat about getting Niko lynched? I'd expect at least a small amount of fake remorse for the situation with Niko Day 1.
I also ended up at the opinion that the sheer BRAVADO at the end of Day 1 was more likely town overestimating the IMPACT of their townflip than scum pretending to.
And ultimately, I mean this in the most endearing way, but I get the sense that Eyes is just posting whatever random stuff they have in mind at the time, without really thinking it through.
The reason I'm worried about being wrong is because of this last part, because I know that scum can adopt a similar thing of just posting white noise and nonsense and whatever comes to mind constantly in an effort to drown out any opposition and look town in the process. And there's a possibility that this is that, I'm scared to be going against what seems to have become a popular opinion but I'm going to stick to my fictitious guns.
Right now, I think Eyes is town.
Very happy to have a conversation about this though.
I would also pursue wagons on any of Vorkuta, Pops or Otter before Eyes.
