I can relate to the reasons why those two are counterwagons right now and i think we're in good wagonomics. I don't feel the need to flashwagon somewhere else. Can everyone take a stance on these two and finalize the day?

ok
VOTE: farkset
you didn't only completely ignore my posts, but of others who said why they think i'm town as well
like it doesn't fit your agenda to reconsider your stance on me

What special about number 1?
My thinking that there's only 1 scum in the pool of players who picked the number 1, while simultaneously being more wary of Don and Iconeum than I am of Datisi

THat seems like a genuine thought, even if Dunnstral slightly disproves it.
But the neighbouriser can still claim to have neighbourised someone dead, or their buddy etc.
Scum has no reason to do that, unless they're trying to hide that Doctor Drew has the 1-shot vigilante or pgo role specifically, so that they can freely kill someone. But even then, They're setting themself up to be lynched down the road.
Every other role, scum can true claim. Can you think of something that Doctor Drew could pick that would lock them in as scum? I'm talking about a specific row, i.e. there's always a townie option to claim.

It often flips town. And the flips don't advance the game one bit. OTOH it's necesarry to take those slots out if they aren't contributing later in the game.
Lurking is a questionable scumtell but Flailing is definitely such.

Well yea farkran said that but this point is actually really stupid. You can't fail to neighborize anyone in entire game. You could fake it once but not every night.
~ker
Also, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.
I'm guessing you haven't read the game and probably never will? Why even sign up to play?

~Dawn
Disagree. Less vocal slots on average don't gain as much suspicion (at least D1) as more active slots that post things people find scummy or even just things people disagree with.

Right, anyway, here goes: the fact that this game has been so quiet even in light of what would have been imminent deadline if not for the replacement means that almost definitely our two competing wagons are TvT. In terms of where scum is, I think that means a higher than average concentration in the lurky slots. I suppose that farkset or skitter could be playing a deep scum game but that’s to be worried about later.
So now there is a double incentive to go after the slots that are low activity, beyond playing to ensure the late game win. Like for god’s sake, town loses so many games because the “personalities” get into dick measuring contests of seeing who has the biggest one and then scum just have to do enough to not be on the bottom of the pile by the time lylo rolls around. Whereas if you actually just acknowledge that one of the active slots may be scum but that /most/ are *purely statistically* town, then you can get to a consensus point where /if/ you end up in lylo after removing the slots that will be inevitable mislynch bait or really hard to sort behind random, then you end up with people who you can, idk, actually look at the trajectory of and decide if it’s more likely town or scum
Scum here is going to be in the people who are trying to look like they care about the wagons but are secretly just hoping that nobody realises the stasis means they’re happy with the gamestate
Can we please get some more votes on alimdia now, who I don’t really think has improved since my vote on him, and even given the arguments made in favour of his towniness I think his low activity also fits. We could do brassherald!slot too, but I’m willing to see if not_mafia improves that or not
There is a way to turn this around from lynching two very likely town slots who will be *easy to sort later* onto lynching *very likely scum slots who will be very difficult to sort later* but only if some of you are willing to work together on it instead of feeling like you need to win the lynch agenda today. Alim is my preference, I think he ticks all the boxes for what scum would be doing, but I’ll work with it if we don’t have the votes. Farkset, melody, aldus, skitter — please take a moment to look at what I’m saying here and realise that I’m making sense
Jackson, you should join me on alimdia or state your preference for a low activity slot to lynch if you have strong reasons to object to an alimdia lynch (in which case you should also lay out those reasons and why my gamestate analysis is wrong)
