Votecount 9.0

Target	Wagon
Not Voting (5)	humaneatingmonkey, Elements, Green Crayons, Isis, Looker

With 5 alive, it takes 3 to lynch. The Day 9 deadline is in (expired on 2020-06-02 13:09:59).

[Green Crayons]

Alas.

[humaneatingmonkey]

In hindsight I should have given intent.

[Green Crayons]

I'll do some work on this tonight or so.

[Isis]

I think my self-excluded winning townblock at this point would be Elements-HEM, but I want to give thought to whether GC to move in amongst them.

I wish I could townread Looker more, he's had plenty of fun takes but I just don't think I've encountered strong reasons to believe he's town, just weak ones.

I think it's worth noting that Deimos, Clemency, and Norwee is a set of three players with pretty low "charisma", as the term has been bandied on MD from time to time, pretty low alignment independent capabilities of avoiding lynch. Putting Elements or Looker as the fourth means interpreting this whole game as one where nobody on the whole scumteam had good charisma, putting HEM or GC as the fourth means interpreting the game with three more endangered players and a fourth with a lot more tenacity.
I'll avoid reviewing my own restaurant and leave the fifth possibility as an exercise for the reader

[Isis]

If only one of those two things is true, you could select correctly and always make a gamewinning townblock

I'm not big pictury enough to confidently do that, I think, but maybe I'll take attempt at it. It's something I plan to think about later

Are you just tired of playing?

• Wtf was that.
  • New PoE: {Monkey | Green Crayons | Isis | Elements}
• I don't know how to differentiate anybody other than VCA. The game has to go half as fast because we're only getting half the kills to analyze.
  • I don't understand the relevance of Isis's conversation regarding charisma (it sounds like the ability to bullshit), because I'm unaware of any trend where scum players meta each other

VOTE: humaneatingmonkey Nobody took HEM up on his resigning himself to a hammer.

[Isis]

You sometimes don't have any experience with a player beyond the current one to ascertain whether a player probably has high "ability to bullshit", we'll go with your preference of term, it is indeed a very good approximation

Clemency and maybe Deimos might would be tone deaf to it, but Norwee is someone I think who would pay attention to the competency of each of his partners and think ahead to what a winning gamestate for his team looks like.

[Isis]

*don't have to have

[humaneatingmonkey]

Just so you guys know, I will actively fight against my lynch because I will flip green. I'm not gonna self-hammer or anything.

[humaneatingmonkey]

Looker, why do you townread Elements more than Isis? I thought everyone just trusted Isis' vague metaread on him?

[humaneatingmonkey]

putting HEM or GC as the fourth means interpreting the game with three more endangered players and a fourth with a lot more tenacity

are you saying I have good charisma?

[Isis]

wtf is 3661 lol

[humaneatingmonkey]

Nobody took HEM up on his resigning himself to a hammer.

[Isis]

yes you have high charisma, i'm not going to take a krazy game as a counterexample that's kingkong knocking out godzilla

[Green Crayons]

Are you just tired of playing?

No. I was feeling good and was hoping you were town and FB was scum.

[Isis]

I feel like Looker's phrasing of his point might be weird or whatever but the whole game your attitude towards your own death has seemed very performative and if you're town you should really tone it down next time you play mafia it's not a helpful way to express your alignment

[Green Crayons]

Tbqh it’s looking like Looker then Isis is my lynch order.

Looker if you want to explain why it’s Isis and not you please lmk.

I’m still going to do real work tonight.

[humaneatingmonkey]

My play has been a disaster and I need to learn how to play town better. I'm currently at 4|6|0.

[humaneatingmonkey]

If Isis flips scum, maybe I'm not as dumb as I think I am.

[Green Crayons]

Elements-HEM, but I want to give thought to whether GC to move in amongst them.

Kinda weird for this, now.

[Isis]

Tbqh it’s looking like Looker then Isis is my lynch order.

Looker if you want to explain why it’s Isis and not you please lmk.

I’m still going to do real work tonight.

Why the heck would you care about input on the order more than input about the final set of game survivors?

[Green Crayons]

Because Elements and HME are my most solid town reads.
