people should really learn to read the gamestate if they believe poor derp is going to flip red, but innocent derp understands that he is probably going to be yeeted today which is very rude

I'm gonna say professor/johnny 2 scum in those four names, professor mafia is scum for the CW, johnny has virtually no logical progression with the 180 on me

if these were t/t CWs I would expect competent and active scumteam but considering the lurkers and how firm my TRs are on the rather active players, professor is just prob!scum by VCA

CW is either a bad TV network that mostly targets the YA/teen demographic and has most of the DC live action serials or it stands for counterwagon. I'm really hoping for the former, it'd be way spicier.

I think mech talk is a bad way to TR people fwiw
VOTE: Big Elephant
random SR on me for TRing JV for being more active and solvy and framing it as a "pocket" and SR for making "reads" LOL
second line is treading IIoA

+1 to this
MWNN's probably town
no reasoning, TRing those who make similar reads to them = lazy reads
hot take: I have a mild SR on MiniVirgo. Trying to defend A50 sounds a bit like a buddy attempt imo.
i think a lot of scum are inactive
why are MWNN/A50 town???
why is the defense buddying not everything that TRs people = pocketing
why would you assume scum are active, this is prob TMI

shitpushing without explaining the SR on my slot AT ALL and sheeping JV
why is derp town???? and why is the tone good

how can you look at prof maf's ISO and not smell the stench?
I wanted to hear back from Prof Maf first but here's more or less where I'm at
his big elephant push is mostly done in bad faith to look active
the initial read and the vote there isn't bad, but since then he has not shown any genuine read progression, continued to shitpush big elephant with crap logic piled on top of crap logic

Accuses BE's trajectories to TR people cheap, but is perfectly fine with throwing out TRs for no good reason

calls miniVirgo scum, who is the most vocal voice in pushing BE, WHILE pushing BE himself at the same time
and then throws out the absolute banger "a lot of scum are inactive", backtracks with "at least 1 inactive scum, BE/MiniVergo contains scum"
this is a red flag, there's way many holes in his logic here, I don't see any real conviction in his read
which seems to me this is Prof Maf content with fanning the flames from the side rather than pushing his SR in good faith
teal deers:
Shelly: Prof maf had a bad push on shelly!slot. Metashade on N_M TR. ProfMaf had lazy/unsupported reads.
yessir: Prof maf push on BE is for show. Cognitive dissonance in SR-ing both elephants and mV. Cheap TR's while pushing someone for cheap TR's.
Of these, yes is actually providing a scum motivation for some of the things done, but neither of them are actually solid cases on ProfMaf.
Actually looking at the quotes shared though, paints a different picture. ProfMaf cast a vote on page 4 with pretty solid reason (given the stage of the game) on shelly. Their fluff to non fluff ratio is good, the meta knowledge of N_M is something anyone who has been in a thread with N_M for more than two sentences can share with you, the point about mechspeak being NAI is just basic mafia, and the rest of the BE case is just as hypocritical as yes is accusing Prof of being.
Further: 107, 108, 200, 373, 452 all have decent reasoning, even if I don't agree with it.
Yes's contention that there's a cognitive dissonance to thinking there is one scum in two slots that are SR-ing each other is frankly baffling. The idea that Prof is trying to look active is also pretty out there: Prof has been pretty obviously lurker-y. Their rate of content is probably the strongest contention against them, tbh. The cherry picking of 373 and 374 to show that Prof doesn't have reasons to townread is pretty :eyebrows: because 374 doesn't contain any townreads and 373 only has two, one of which he'd previously given a reason for.

Mafia is a 0 sum fun game. There is a limited amount of fun to be had, and the only way to ensure all of it is mine is to make sure no one else has any.

First of all, even the strongest proponents of VCA know that it's more useful as the game progresses.
Second, why would dueling town wagons support the idea of an active scumteam as opposed to a scumteam willing to let the active town players eat each other alive?
Third, who are the active players and what have they done to merit a townread?
