Open 779: Pick Your Power X/Y Game Over!

[Melody]

At the top of page 19, I like Peppur. Will catch up on rest later.

skitter, Evening will probably answer your question (I'm not town leaning you).

~Dawn

Why?

Am I being pocketed

Meta lol. Paranoia of pocketing and with a hint of OMGUS is what I've seen from town!you.

~Dawn

[Melody]

Also are you Shiki/Hectic?

Sorry, not gonna answer any alt-guesses. Unless you're RCEnigma because that guy is a legend (you'd have to alt out in the process though).

~Dawn

[Cat Scratch Fever]

Oh geez there are only four days left

[Doctor Drew]

Ah shit, was more LA then I had anticipated, sorry guys and gals.

I promise I will properly catch up tomorrow, but will somewhat be around tonight hopefully to at least check the last couple pages.

[Cat Scratch Fever]

Was there anything particularly scummy about them or is it a "I'm gonna randomly choose an inactive and hope they play the game"

Because I literally scumread that's for that very reason

cuz out of everyone vaugely playing they pinged me the most, and yeah i thought it was weird you were going after dats and not really me, but i guess this explains it

What pinged you?

[Melody]

Recently discovered footage showing deadline creeping up on Cat Scratch Fever:


~Dawn

[Cat Scratch Fever]

dp if you were scum in this game how do you think you would be trying to approach me?

farkset how would you feel about potentially voting melody?

Are you townreading Farkset?

[skitter30]

What pinged you?

You're popping in at awkward times and the things you're choosing to comment on are weird

[skitter30]

Are you townreading Farkset?

Idk

[skitter30]

Gun-to-head yes i suppose

[skitter30]

I noticed Datisi said something similar, thats why i said "I like how Datisi grudgingly townleans skitts". I townread you, but you're closer to the bottom of the list because i feel like i'd townread you as scum as well. I also liked that Datisi thought abt it the same way as me

Sorry, i'm a little confused
Why is it townie of dats to read me that way? I can pretty easily imagine scum doing just that

@dawn can you make sure evening answers this plz?

[Cat Scratch Fever]

What pinged you?

You're popping in at awkward times and the things you're choosing to comment on are weird

can you elaborate on both of these

[skitter30]

They're kinda related, idk if i courp separate them

Like.on friday calling out farkran's readslist was a weird thing to comment on

Tonight, while catching up, the fact that those two posts of mine are the only ones you commented on

Like it just feels off timing/approach wise

[Cat Scratch Fever]

I already explained why I thought Farkran's readslist pinged me as scummy. The timing of that shouldn't have been suspicious considering it was right after Farkran made that readslist...?

The thing from today couldn't have contributed to what made you want to vote me, since that came after.

[skitter30]

Its more like those were the main things you talked about; the absence of talking about other things pinged me

Like it kinda feels like you dont know what to talk about so you just made random posts responding to random things, idk

[Cat Scratch Fever]

Melody, is there a particular reason why one head of the hydra is more active than the other?

[DonCorleone]

So, I’m not caught up (read: at all), but I did take the time to iso a couple of people and this seemed the most egregious of the bunch

VOTE: alimdia

This feels like scum I think. The push on skitter was bad and didn’t really feel like it makes sense but I think he tried to make it make sense. As in, there is a kind of process being laid out of “this is why skitter is logically scum” but I struggle to see anyone

really

believing it’s scum indicative for her. I could see this being scum trying to do something for the sake of it in the early game, followed by what seems to be a pretty major drop off in effort or desire to scumhunt afterward. Stuff like “nice catch” and “nice save”, avoiding taking stances like on CSF, or asking questions that Jaír aren’t super relevant

(Ftr, in answer to 411 I haven’t reviewed them yet)

[skitter30]

Alimidia is almost too scummy to be scum i think tbh

[DonCorleone]

What are the cases on fark and melody? Has anyone posted a case even?

[Cat Scratch Fever]

Its more like those were the main things you talked about; the absence of talking about other things pinged me

Like it kinda feels like you dont know what to talk about so you just made random posts responding to random things, idk

I didn't think there was a whole lot else worth commenting on at the point

Why was I a better vote than Clemency back when Datisi voted Clemency?

[DonCorleone]

Alimidia is almost too scummy to be scum i think tbh

Idk if I want to get into the wifom around that. I think that’s more like dunn calling for the pre-emotive claims and fucking up my cop claim, whereas I think alim is trying to variously blend in and look town. Have a look at him in iso

[skitter30]

@csf i have literally no thoughts om clemency, and i think they'll prob be replaced ngl

@dc i know what his iso looks like, most of it is about me lol. Idk i'm not vibing it really. Like it's so bad that i feel like.it almost comes from.town

[DonCorleone]

I mean I think it’s definitely preferable to either of the two people who I think are most likely to be town and who are somehow being wagoned

And tbh, even if he’s not scum I’m not overly concerned by that. I’m less bothered about trying really hard to lynch scum today vs removing as many slots that will be difficult to sort as possible and then solving the content rich ones

[DonCorleone]

I mean I can see the argument that it’s a low info lynch, but fundamentally I don’t think he’s ever eating the NK and I think he’s gonna be a nightmare if he’s town and scum are keeping him around until lylo. Plus I think about half the time the TSTBS slots are actually scum, so bonus if he does flip red

[Cat Scratch Fever]

I distinctly remember Aldus being more proactive as town in Masons and Mafia, and I dislike both of his major pushes on Dunn and Melody. He said he was pushing scum!dunn as much as he could given dunn's low activity earlier, but several people put forth town leans on Dunn, which was something he could've engaged with. I don't feel like he was considering what other people were saying about Dunn wanting the PGO/Vig slot to claim being possibly town motivated as well. I also generally get the feeling that this is one of dunn's lhf games and an easy slot to push.

I'm also not feeling his reason for scumreading Melody. I feel like it's pretty normal to join a growing wagon and even a bit townie as stubbornly parking on a wagon by yourself won't generate any meaningful pressure.

VOTE: Aldusskel
