Math has a pretty good scumgame (I was in the game that the quote in his sig is taken from), but it was pretty solid and conventional and the way he's playing here is anything but that.
It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!

E-1 is misleading, but you are on his shortlist for execution and he did ask you to claim.

No, it doesn't. But it does end when I decide to execute someone (between Taylor & Chemist.. maybe shelly too), so I would like to ensure the BP is assigned before I do.

Now. here's a request:

@Tayl0r Swift
@Chemist
@shelly


You should all claim in your next post. It'd be better if you also provided a read list and any other final thoughts. Treat this as your final post of the game. Thank you.

I can’t believe I am arguing I am good scum what is the world coming to?

I am still sad I didn’t get noms for Gistou and Shadowrun. They are lengthy af to warn you.

If you want links lemme know. Otherwise just I am considered decent/good scum.

I have long accepted I will never get a title or a scummy.
I was nommed for my scum play as an alt once. But that's because I was an alt and I didn't get meta clobbered.

titles and scummies are just a popularity thing.
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I strongly prefer DDL from that group given I seem to be one of the few to have critically analyzed Pickaxe Pete's iso and looked at key indicators there that make me think town, and jjh being a townread by both mechanics and play. (I did hash out an explanation of this in the neighborhood pt, will make a public version when caught up.)

I re-read Gamma ISO. Like a TGP flip.
I would like to note that Gamma defended DDL and did not attack Tayl0r for something that he should have attacked Tayl0r for (Menalque, the N1 probable-scum-nightkill, noted this!), so Gamma's iso implicates both of them;
DDL and Tayl0r were among Gamma's strongest defenders (and while, yes, town could and did defend Gamma as shown by both Almost50 and April, defending Gamma is still by and large a fairly reasonable scum indicator especially if you go out of your way to defend him when you're not someone who should have reason to), so their own isos implicate both of them.

Both of them would be among my top scum candidates; DDL being in a list of three that's guaranteed to contain one scum when I've decent reasons to townread the other two is the cherry on top of the already-existing reasons to scumread him.

Step me through it.

However if you wish to answer the latter go for it.

I am of the opinion that whomever A50 chooses to execute that we should execute DDL tomorrow. He's got too much baggage and he's just not worth risking the game over.

I'm willing to fight for my scumreads, but I have to realize, for the health of the thread, when I have lost that battle.

I just wish you’d quit thinking of it as a battle tbh.

Ddl and Pickaxe could very well both be scum.

What about the possibility that everyone’s right?

I am of the opinion one or the other but not both and jjh is 50% shot.

But that doesn’t mean I am wrong and try to insist.

If we go DDL tomorrow you’ll get some healthy wagon data.
Game sorely needs it.

Just let things happen naturally. VCA will be soooo much better

I was thinking that S_S was scum because he felt slightly off in terms of tone and focus. And then I wasn't thinking that. His recent posts on this page in regards to his read of you are giving me a ton of mixed feelings. Because he's probably right. But I'm not sure if he's going for a town cred bonus or if he's just being helpful.
S_S is just generally helpful as town. I think that based on how he approaches that you can read him. When he initially got here this led to a scum read, but then slowly changed to a town read and now back to slightly town. Given the pool's relatively narrow on town/town aligned slots he doesn't make the cut. I have a stronger read on ShellyC than him rn.
I initially thought this game was multi-multiball with multiple scum teams, but that doesn't look like that's what's happening. Which probably makes this game easier because I find it very hard to differentiate between people when part of how I read games is based on whether people are fake solving or not.

I was thinking that Titus was buddying me as scum.
I was thinking that DDL might be scum beause based on his play not being terribly disimilar to what he normally played as.
I was thinking that Plus joyed was town because he accurately threw Meta at me.
At the time of the last day phase I was scum reading shellyc for a lack of empathy and pushing me in a way that was sort of frustrating so it was more emotionally based than I would like to admit.
I felt you were town getting into an argument that wasn't going to be very conducive to our win condition so I tried to soothe that to the best of my ability given my brain state.


I was thinking that Mastina wasn't being fair to April and he was probably flipping town based on the replace out, his frustration posts, tone not differing much from ongoing.
I was leaning slightly town on Mastina at this point, but and correct me if I'm wrong I believe mastina was originally named Mastin on this site? And based on very dated Meta I did not wish to underestimate their scum game even slightly and their strategizing so I was being careful in weighing them given my depressed brain.

I felt SB was looking better. Today he's clearly aligned with town interests.
I felt Nerocain looked swell and continues to look swell. I mean, he looks extremely scummy and if I were scum I would absolutely NK him.

I wasn't sure what to make of the set up chaos because depressed brain. I have had a pretty tough time keeping track of everything across the board. I can't really do anything about this though. It's just sad brains time and eventually it will fade as it always does and I'll be more hopeful.

I don't have the energy to edit this. I can't fully recall what else I was thinking at the time.

There comes a point where the day just ends organically and more talking hurts town.

Once we get the remaining claims, the day will hit that point. So we should keep our talks to a minimum (which is why I didn't discuss my Chemist claim thoughts in public).

hi

sorry something happened and it diverted my attention but i'm back i guess

i barely read any of d1 but i picked titus because she was an active voice leading on the GE wagon and i was pretty much treating the role as if it were a watcher

n2 i picked math because he was a controversial slot and i wanted to see if i could get info based on who targeted him role-wise (even though at this point i acknowledged that it was pretty much useless, it's the best i'm gonna get out of this)
