i know i made before (and when i did i didn't realize at the time the post i was replying to was in response to a Q you'd asked; if she'd offered that umprompted, different story and what i said totally applies) but i am the smallest bit paranoid of skitter. that said, her takes are very good this game, she's seeing things the same way i see them, and often before i post about them, and i think her progression on DC was very good.

she's just not you level. and just can't ever be.

honestly the way mena is playing around me is incredibly impressive if he's scum. he's taking everyone's read on me at face value and true, possibly just reacting to the fact that i'm untouchable, but doing so in a way that i feel like is trying to take that as a premise and solve elsewhere.

i can accept the fact that he's tonally grumpy about it because it went in the face of what he wanted to believe early game

having a hard time seeing peta's opening as town no matter what nacho is

just seems like a very goal-oriented opening rather than a fact-finding one.

although if nacho is scum peta is just absolutely dead meat next no questions asked

if nacho and mara are both town this still applies although to a lesser extent

if nacho is town and mara is scum, maybe i'll rethink peta

i think cakez / peta are potentially s/s

wondering about this mara positing nacho!town nm!scum

if they flipped in exactly that configuration i'd be hesitant about flipping her ever
if nm flipped town i'd be ok w/ just purporting her pushing a bad theory
if nm/nacho are both scum, well, i get paranoid this was a planned bus of nm by the team at large to grab cred early.

the fact that people are thinking about bussing not being as effective makes bussing more effective; that's just the nature of WIFOM

though, being on a lot of scumteams lately i will say that people overrate the fuck out of the amount of planning teams actually do, especially in a setup that has not gone to night yet and had very little if any pregame and is staffed by 4+ lurkfucks out of 12 players

i'm not sure this post had a point

really. she's been interested in alternatives the entire time she's been in the game and has had so many opportunities to just give into the inertia forming and hop on, but hasn't.

she's purporting a theory i don't necessarily agree with, but her stances are consistent with it.

i think it's really easy to make those kinds of posts as scum. the latter doesn't really offer anything except a promise, and if he's as self aware as he claims in the former then i don't really see why he wouldn't pull out stops there to make that kind of post in order to get townread for it. i feel like that's the kind of post i am utterly capable of faking as scum and i'm not that good at scum.

also given that i am not willing to consider noddy as the scum in the townbloc because i know how noddy plays and i am telling you you're wrong:

why is vft scum? this is something i have been soliciting reasoning for for a while and i don't feel like i've gotten much out of anyone about it.

the game ended like literally a couple hours or so before i joined this one, the best way i have to explain it was that he was so bad in that one and i do not get a similar feeling here whatsoever, like i can quote posts and say "this is town" but i can't EXPLAIN it, really
fwiw i did just read the game, and i agree w/ you that he seems a lot terser in that game, although i'm not sure how i'd get to the point of just saying "this is due to difference in alignment" to the point that i'm comfortable enough with that take to call him my top read.

I still mostly think Mara is town; i think her reaction to the nacho wagon is definitely the road not taken and she could've easily hopped on Nacho as a survivalist effort or made herself the 6th vote knowing i was basically going to hammer at deadline and wanted nacho more than i wanted her

peta was also the biggest driver on that wagon and it makes sense as scum if he was going to come in w/ the express purpose of defending nacho it was with the intent of creating a wagon on another townie

instead she said she'd rather take the no-elim - which as she correctly pointed out, isn't anti-town on D1

Mena do you have any updated thoughts on VFT atm? I really wanted to pick Nacho's brain on this one late in the day

my current issue is that even if the rest of the living scum is all

{nm, bulge, cakez}
who are all people i'm not comfortable calling town right now (cakez i am conflicted on, i'll get back to that in a bit, but ultimately i don't think i have a good reason to townread here)

then someone i have at least some semblance of a townread on:

{noddy, infinity, salsa/iverson, vft, mara, and your slot toward the end of the day}

is wrong. I'm trying to figure out which slot that is.

it's more about at what point in the game day did she switch

because at some point someone's gotta declare a DC push as not viable for the day and move, regardless of alignment

i guess my big point here is that people who think mara is scum should either be

1) pushing mara, "hot amazeballs scum counterwagon to flipped town"
2) finding who in the fuck was scum pushing nacho, which mara built up as a counterwagon to

going on nm to me, as someone who thinks mara is scum out of the gate is ?????????

In post 1918, Iverson wrote:Part of this is that I intentionally remove the tonal markers that make townreading me effortless in other games.

i'm
super excited
to be a part of this

Spoiler:

anyway i personally agree w/ you about not_mafia in that the ramp up in activity seems purely reactionary to the "srs-mode" pressure that came out of the gate today

I don't understand what you mean.
to be more clear then:

if nm is scum to you why are you so affronted by her voting him?

what does nacho flipping town mean for your pool? it seemed like you were predicating a lot of your mom scumread on nacho also being scum (, ) and more in general that pool being scum around nacho being scum, but he flipped town and your reads are exactly the same and therefore i'm having a harder time seeing that thought process as legitimate

i mean peta came in angling to defend nacho, something that i think we can both agree is oblique to his wincon given they've both flipped.

When looked at in that light, he may have just wanted to pocket nacho thinking nacho would wiggle out of the elim inevitably, or really just decided nacho was town before receiving his scum pm and decided just to roll with it and see where it look him.

Everything downstream of that likely wasn't particularly planned, which means mara could be whatever, although i feel like trying to counterwagon another townie there has very little risk compared to the amount of reward it potentially incurs, but we get into WIFOM there and meh.

more salient is that i think mara's own reaction to the nacho wagon just seemed really town to me and i'm having a hard time letting go of that.

it's exactly why i was checking to see if she was around EoD yesterday - i wanted to see what she'd do.

re: noddy read:

more presence/confidence than just tone to me

he doesn't go toe to toe w/ nacho the whole game and break out the whole cobra kai schtick as scum.

i think posts like are things that legitimately affect his psyche as town that i don't think he's quite got the handle on to fake as scum

he maybe gloms onto me like he has this game as scum but i feel like he's always a little bit afraid that i'm going to catch on.

THAT SAID:
i don't mind your push as i think it is more likely to make his true alignment known over time.

rereading this push from iverson -> noddy today i'm not sure how i feel yet

on one hand, i do kinda think noddy's jump from nm to someone else was poorly explained at the time, and if you scumread nm independently of that, then i can kinda see this take
on the other, i do feel like a lot of the push is getting stuck on noddy being vague or opaque or even lazy in the moment a la , which i don't think is a very good reason to scumread someone.

but yes, there's possibility for just massive WIFOM here i agree. still mostly echoes my thoughts on that

i still feel like mara could've taken a different angle easily as scum, but your point that nacho was much more likely than her to be the flip is something i acknowledge

if bulge is scum and nm is town then maybe; again i don't know why DC does this weird shit about bulge vs nm if he is scum w/ nm in any capacity (i guess unless he's looking for me to make observations like this but that was very in the moment of him then)

very good Q.

my first inclination would be in the manner that cakez (accepting a sheep), salsa (being like maaaaaan i dunno i guess let's see) or bulge (i'm not paying attention sure nacho sounds great) did

infinity in particular i think maintained "i've got my gut read on nacho and i'm not terribly interested in what any of you are fueling that fire with" which seemed town to me at the time.

like bulge goes and says he's obviously not paired w/ anyone this game

that's actually more how i feel about mara. she's not here to make any friends.

i feel a little better after .

and again, gut:

I don't personally play like described there, but being upfront about your intentions is good in that in the absence of that I think potentially this sort of behavior can be used to force reactions you want so that you can control the interaction, which to me seems like it has more utility for scum that town.

Whereas at this point you've kind of reduced it to "do something" which is fine

It's a weak tell at best, but it's in the back of my mind at the moment.

noddy, it's been close to 24 hours later - what's your overall stance on Bulge?

Because Prism is saying exactly what I'm thinking in

--------

It's day 2 and I don't even know what I'm waiting for at this point.

I feel like game has settled into a lower energy state and generally my stances on slots like nm and bulge is that either or both could be scum and I just don't really know how to validate which is better than the other but even worse is that I feel like it is a foregone conclusion that, even if town, neither is going to make a serious attempt to change my mind. I don't know what to make of the big switch over from nm -> bulge other than it maybe lends credence to my townblock not being as good as i thought it was. But I don't see anything individually in any of noddy/infinity/vft that is making me want to take any action on that.

I wish mara were more engaged; would go a long way into firming up that read.

I wonder if I'm being too easy on DC; everything ydra does just makes me want to kill the slot, and I dunno. there's still 4 scum alive and I feel like this is one of the reads I could just be wrong on, no matter what my read happens to be at the time.

I wonder if I'm being too hard on Prism. I'm sure he'd disagree :). Ultimately his content since my "I'm paranoid" post has not bothered me and I think he's pushing Bulge for good reasons.

just random thoughts as I deliberate on what to do.

this is the weirdest "counterwagon" situation i've ever seen in that:

1) all the people voting bulge right now have voted not_mafia earlier in the same gameday despite nothing really happening
2) i have all of those people at least north of null

frankly i get a different answer every time i go back and look at that slot. let me see if i can find a summary of the last time I did.

I still feel like the reaction to nm/bulge suggests a world where if nm and bulge are both scum that DC is town just because of how vehemently and instantly they reacted to the switchover.

lilith, i think mena looked genuine in the page 56 range (that is what my is about), other than that and i don't really have much. I'm proxying the read a little to skitter who seems comfortable w/ mena.

I need to reread the stuff that happened right around - this is when peta started the mom wagon, which DC was initially opposed to, culminating in when they hopped on.

What are your thoughts?

this would be better if i knew what mom was. if mom is town DC looks a little worse, although they got on right after you did which kind of supports the "I'm lookiing just for a compromise that isn't nacho" angle which could come from town, even if mara is also town.

if NM were to flip town at this point or bulge flip scum, i'd probably feel better about noddy/infinity/vft block overall (my strongest TRs over the game)

if nm flipped scum, it's probably neutral wrt to those three.

If bulge flips town, and especially if nm flips scum later, there's a major problem w/ my reads somewhere

Maybe you're right on the tone stuff being her scum superpower, but I really felt like skitter was excited to find out I was me, because it made her job of reading me very very easy and I thought that came out in her

I'm going to be honest: I don't think "infinity made because, even though she was townreading kistmet/noddy/vft, she still subconsciously knew she was scum" to be a very convincing argument.

i myself didn't really understand the point you were trying to make here until very recently and i think it's plausible infinity didn't either considering she doesn't consider what she posted to be a contradiction. I don't think she's trying to run you in circles, she just really doesn't understand the point you're making.

I'm not sure where else to go with this particular point. What other opinions have evolved since you made your earlier reads post?

the only scum motivation i can really see here in infinity presenting this contradiction as such is that infinity thought the inclusion of that clause would make the argument hold more water to get prism off her back

part of me feels like was an attempt to recover from a misstep made in

if infinity is town, it really shouldn't at all imply that vft is scum due to anything related to

just don't know if that was a defensive move or if it was just a clarification =/

this is my conundrum: my townreads are all voting the same way

last time this happened scum did not flip

nobody seems to give that much of a shit about it

it's not even that scum isn't voting, just nothing is moving except bulge's move against infinity

In post 2532, Momrangal wrote:You keep mentioning that scum was trying to bus yesterday and today but you also overlooked the point that cakes was avoiding NM like the the plague yesterday and was more than eager to get on that today. Cakes was more interested in getting rid of Nacho than he was on of getting rid of NM, which Imo makes sense from scum cakes
I agree w/ this assessment, but I'm curious as to if you think it's more likely to make NM scum, and why

i don't know. i don't think there's anything really wrong w/ her takes so to speak but she's just not around often enough for me to evolve my earlier take. I will point out that she never claimed she wasn't being underwhelming, just that she doesn't view that as AI for herself.

I don't really know where to go from here other than just to flip someone.

What do you think NM flips at this point?

I'm lost. I had assumed that one of Iverson/DC was going to get sacced last night due to my vote cascading into a double switch almost immediately. I still feel like there is scum in there. If NM had been town iverson probably looks worse here, but in this universe he is right that nm just quickhammers.

I still think cakez looks bad and the vote on nm seems bussy.

Dunno. This has obviously not been my best work up to this point.
