That's not possible though because there was a no kill
Or at least it's very unlikely

Flights of fancy sing,
Yet import of syllables
Lost to depths of time

Yes, town. I am town.

I have not been Town
Enough for you. But it is
Truly town, must I be

So it ends, questions?
I am here and I will say
What lies in my heart.

The doors of Durin
Glow above the moonlit pool
Speak friend and enter.

I know I'm town.

I suspect I'm about to know 72 is town short of bizarro world

I originally had Spangled as some sort of PoE alternative if 72 was scum but thinking about it the likely third elim after 72 and ff agreed on by both doesn't really make sense unless scum were super confident. cyl's comments start of d2 make him likely scum in bizarro no kill n1 world

Egix seemed more proactive d3 in a way I liked, but I don't remember them seriously Interacting with ff other than back and forth quips about his meta and he has c4 in a post I called out for looking like a rule of 3 read

CAT has burned a lot of game cred here and still would have if 72 was VT - post flip him and ff would've been enemy number 1 and 2 tomorrow. And ff calling JDye v 72 TvT pings me as true cos it tends to be when it comes from scum

Safebet just feels, well safe. He sounds nice, and hunterr did too so I've put them in the can be town for now bin but always been aware they could just be a player who says nice good sounding things who turns out to be scum. He didn't feel like he was doing much d3. I'd have to look for associatives but the things that ping my memory are he also called JDye v 72 TvT but also them both voting muh d2 feeling odd as a scum tactic

I have asked you questions. I can appreciate not feeling up to answering questions — if that’s the case here — but you can just say that.

Fuck you dude. Whenever I've done anything other than exactly what you want you bombard me with posts until I get in line or leave the thread. You are part of the reason for my apathy this game. If you read what I said I specifically avoided the thread after you said that cos it sound my anxiety and I just wanted a chance to get my own thoughts out without being railroaded. And when I don't do what you want you just get angry at me and I feel like avoiding you in the first plane was the right thing

I probs got carried away with the game. Just townread you hard and i thought u townread me.

Im not surprised u voted for me given i can see from this post how angry and fruastrated u r with me.

If i knew u were at this level i wudv stepped back.

All i can say is my bad.

I'm sorry for snapping there. I've had a lot going on this game and it bled into the game and I'm sorry.

I could never confidently town read you because you were being intentionally anti charismatic. TSTBS players are usually just town - either a new player who doesn't know or an experienced one who doesn't care - but you can never be confident there. Especially when I've been pocketed like that before.

I should double check who talked about me potentially being pocketed. I'm pretty sure JDye did but that might just be him being tunnelled. I also think I remember Safebet doing it to convince me to vote muh (amongst other stuff) despite his read on you being more mixed - could be intentional.

I've also been out of the game in general and lack a lot of confidence over my reads - like I first post I'm not good at this game. I am decent at sounding town, but as far as I'm concerned I'm not great at scum hunting or producing reads, which means as scum I dunno what to fake. My town strategy is be honest about my thoughts, pay attention to town health and hope I say something that helps someone else solve the game. It's probably what CAT was reading too

It not only applies to me but I'm pretty sure I am worse at this game than you, Mizzy. Look at my reads! Muh and 72Off, like almost completely wrong. I can't even say I got the FF read even partially right on my D3 reads list. I'm pretty sure the best thing for town!me to do is to organically create a scumread and then townread them hard. :facepalm: In comparison, you're doing just fine when you give yourself a chance, cut yourself a break once in a while :] .

It looks like I have an uphill battle tomorrow to convince people I'm town. I am aware there is a pretty hard PoE case against me, not to mention the coming VCA I can already see coming. I want to be as helpful as I can for the rest of the day.

@72... Let me know what you want from me, if anything. You say you want reads but I'm not sure if you'll listen to my reads. I will give them if you want them. I also want to know if we should be discussing about tomorrow's night action as it relates to 72, because I have an idea. I think it's an obvious one, but I'm not sure and I don't want to leave it to chance. Rather have someone tell me I'm dumb.

As far as the nice thing... ever hear of the phrase "Wisconsin Nice"? MC must have. It's a personality trait.

We should all be giving opinions about who the last scum is as that's the best shot to keep 72 alive.
72 should also announce a target to clear them if he does die

what I mean by the sounding nice thing is there are just some players who can sound nice and say reasonable things and turn out to be scum even though people find it generally townie, they are usually easier to catch after you get the partner, that's been my read on your slot for most of the game

I think Safebet is both a good shot for being scum and a useful person to have confirmed as town

I understand... I just wanted to make sure you know it would be in either of my ranges. I've been told I'm just a nice guy.
