Do you think I would recruit PlusJoyed or do you think PlusJoyed would've recruited me? Either scenario IMO is a long shot since I've basically never played with him.

plusjoyed made sense in various worlds to me and their play individually seemed the scummiest out of the non-you players to me, and isis who i was townreading voted there. would you have chosen plusjoyed? somewhat unlikely. would plusjoyed have chosen you? quite possibly.
Why would PlusJoyed choose me? He's literally never played with me before. and then we open up as the first 2 posters? I mean cmon really?
THIS Is WHY PLUSJOYED Was CONFIRMED.
could you explain
Pooky is saying that they make no sense as a scumteam because
they’ve never played together
, so he basically spewed him town with these posts, so that’s why I think he was confirmed.

You said you loved playing scum earlier but you have no scumgames on site, correct? So, if you have any offsite, can you link them?

i found taylor scummy independently, but based on pooky flip, i'm not sure she is

does pooky advocate a taylor wagon in c1?

Well that’s a real shame because it could definitely help you here if I’m wrong, because all I’ve got now is towngames where you have played 180 degrees differently from this one and Pooky’s weird hedging around your slot. Also, it makes absolutely no sense to call it a “trash” argument. The converse otoh, I could actually see because I’d probably sleep through a marathon, which is why I don’t sign up for them.

I would have bet the game on this progression, Kanna. Possibly even if drusilla was unconfirmed, but definitely against anyone else.
When Pooky highlighted it I felt even surer rereading it

a lot of this is why i attempted to ask him 'where do we go from here?' which was apparently lost in animal sounds.
i said "we should consider pooky town for c2 because that gives us the best chance to find scum"
dru agrees here and apparently she had also been thinking something similar during c2 (that's why she was asking pooky where he wanted to go)
but when it actually came to the execution part of it, she goes plusjoy

it seems weird to me she got to the point of knowing what pooky wanted was important, and seemed to care enough to try and find that out, but then ignored it when she got the answer
In post 874, Kanna wrote:the tmi thing is also relatively nai, just saying. dru/isis are all good players and i think the best way to catch them out is finding what their motivation is

i think drusilla's motivation today has clearly been to advocate for a pooky elim and looking at the reasons, i find them p shaky. she's better than this. which means it's possible she's covering for isis so we should GO ISIS

Idk but if it is actually Tayl0r, than it definitely would make sense for her not to want to confirm me. NM hammered Pooky on D1, never voted Isis and only voted him after she scumread her, so I don’t really see the associatives between them. NM is such a frustrating player and got misvenged in a recent game but I think he’s more likely to distance his buddy in a more obvious way. Idk but if it is Tayl0r, she made brilliant choices. I still don’t get Drusilla’s argument on why scum!Ydrasse wouldn’t have aligned herself with a confirmed slot, whether it was me or not. I suppose it could be NM but why wouldn’t scum!NM confirm a slot who’s been defending him allgame? Maybe I’m just overthinking it.

But all of this happened before that even occurred to me, so how would Ydrasse even know this? I didn’t even realize it at first. Also, why does she even pick me over Kanna who apparently is much better at reading her or it would seem based off of Kanna townreading her tone. Or why not you? Why does she even pick me? This is yet another reason why I think it points to Tayl0r, because between NM, Ydrasse and Tayl0r, Tayl0r has the least reason to confirm me. Does anyone think it likely that scum!Tayl0r would confirm me? I definitely don’t.

VOTE: Ydrasse and Loki
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?

or maybe it isn't so unlikely that i was in the top 4 townslots :s i think i just think that because i played badly

current thoughts are loki's insistence that it's taylor pings me as well as the non confirm. he is also subtly defending ydrasse, which he has to do here if he were scum

technically nothing should have changed between yesterday when i was townreading him and now but it has. i will have to look at why i was townreading him. i feel bad though, because if it's loki, he's played really well

town *should* vote the pair with 2 unconfirmeds, but it also just happens the slots i'm finding suspicious right now are those 2 slots. but i definitely don't want to end the day before thinking it through

mmmmmm but i think it's just loki and if not, then ydrasse

taylor is towny for the deadline hammer + pooky's early wagoning
n_m i think is more likely town than not

there's the argument that scum wouldn't want to pair with an unconfirmed, but that's wifom

I had the same paranoia about Loki not being confirmed and how narrow his focus on Taylor is right now. But his thought process itself still seems town to me. On a macro level he is pushing the chess pieces the way they would need to be pushed if he is scum, but I feel like he is still wiggling them into the corners of spaces like a townie as he moves them.

It does feel a little like throwing not to clear Taylor for the hammer. I want to continue to play to maybe nail down that read.
