that hesitancy to vote bugs, but not doing anything about actually reading bugs... feels like scum to me
I don't like hammering in general and I didn't find anything new of interest aside from what I've already said
Unless I haven't said what I've thought I said then fair enough
I don’t like hammering unless I’m extremely confident or it’s near deadline. I once quickhammered obvscum and then had to fight of ludicrous bussing accusations but I just knew, like I was 99.9999% confident and I was right.

How many mafia games have you played, grandpa?
this is my first :p
Can confirm, I've played in his 0 game before
flow.. pls look at what vander said... do you think this is scum lmao
If Mo is scum, this is kind’ve anti-associative with Flow, don’t you think?
@Andante
I think flow is flipping scum. 100% based off the reaction about hammering bugs then never saying whether he TR or SRed them
Well, that could explain why I thought bugs/Vanders could be TvT but I thought impossible based on setup spec but yeah he should have some kind of reaction to the self-hammer. I’m still hoping it came from scum but I honestly think bugs gamethrew.
I’m really hoping you’re right and they didn’t straight up gamethrow. I’ve never seen them self-hammer as either alignment but if scum, then I think Mo is likely buddy because Vanders would of course be confitown.
I’m starting to think that maybe bugs could still be scum and possibly falling on their sword for their buddy. I’m basing this on never ever having seen bugs self-hammer before. And it wasn’t the kind’ve angry self-hammer I’ve usually seen come from town. Like when town!Xtoxm self-hammered, he was absolutely furious, almost like he was trowing some kind of tantrum and pretty much ditto for most of the town self-hamlers I’ve seen.
And bugs didn’t sound angry in the slightest and the self-hammer was really awkward. I really think they wanted Vanders flipped. I think if Vanders was the cw, they probably wouldn’t have self-hammered.

u litearlly changed ur reads like 8 times now and have said i was town at first and bugs was scum then u said it was me and vanders and now u are saying bugs is scum .
idfk but can u hammer ? because everyone literally got on to me bout not hammering and i dont like how u got off the hook for that but i was bashed about it and its honestly annoying since like i dont think i have done anything rlly scummy. i have replied to everyone, gave my defense and direction while ppl still somehow seem to ignore everything i say. thats why im not even trying that much anymore this game. and probably won't go into my analytical phase anytime soon

You’re screaming at me to hammer than saying if they flip town, I’m scum? What kind of townie ever makes these two posts back to back? Sorry but no, you’re blatantly obvious attempts to try to miselim won’t work.

Mo wanted me to hammer than in the very next post, said I’m scum if bugs is town. I don’t even think Donald Trump could come up with something that ludicrous.
I don’t know if what is happening between bugs and Mo is some insane scum theatre or if bugs is actually town but I have never ever even once seen a game, where a player demanded I hammer and in the very next post claim that if the slot they wanted me to hammer flipped town, I’m probably scum. What townie in the history of mafia thinks like that?

thats a regular claim... i wasn't even pertaining to that. if you read the full post... i was getting frustrated at the fact that everyone points me out for not hammering (including u i believe) then u switch up ur reads for like the 4th or 5th time, and don't even vote but stay on me for whatever reason.
Quote that post. Where did I ever say that? Town doesn’t demand someone hammers and in the very next post say if the slot they didn’t hammer flips town, they’re scum, No freaking way.

antitown
Why should I think you’re town especially now after those two back to back posts I just referenced. You’re acting scummy af, so no nothing remotely antitown about wanting to vote the slot that is being off the charts scummy. I’m still not sure whether or not bugs is your buddy but they are more likely to be town than you, which is why with over a week left, why would I want to switch my vote - especially when my strongest sr is demanding I hammer?
Is there a possibility that you’re off the charts uberscummy town, sure but I really don’t think so.
Why are you so eager to be the hammer? And if I put bugs at e - 1, then why are you saying you want to wait to hear what they’re saying?
this
What were you wanting to hear and now you yelled at me to hammer them. It’s nowhere near deadline, so why would I switch my vote when I feel far more confident on you flipping scum than bugs?
The fact that you’re not even entertaining the possibility that I’m deathtunnelled town instead of scum when it’s beyond obvious I’m town here, also isn’t helping.
But I would be seriously shocked if your town with the way you’ve been treating my slot and I just think your reads on both me and bugs don’t read genuine to me.

because ur inconsistent with ur reads. u say im more scum than bugs one time and you even sheep bugs saying its me and vander then onto the recent post (the reason why i even made that post for u to hammer) where u literally said that you thought bugs was scum.
so why not vote for them.
i was just eager for a flip to happen already.
I repeat, it’s nowhere near deadline and you’re currently my strongest sr. Why would I vote anywhere else?

Is that directed to me or Mo? I can’t trust anyone is isn’t reading me correctly. That much should be obvious. If either or both of you are lying to me then I can’t take whomever is seriously.
Fact is that every single time I voted Mo, you put me in your PoE? Why? And now he’s saying to me that he’s going to (or was?) going to push me if you flip town. I need to know which one of you - if either - is approaching my slot in good faith and until I’m clear on that I’ll probably just sheep my strongest trs who I can have confidence aren’t lying to me.
What isn’t making sense to me is that you put two people in your PoE - one who actually and I’m wondering now maybe stupidly? tried to save you (me) and the other who unvoted you (Hopkirk).
See I can’t tell which of you - if either - is actually town - and if not are somehow trying to set me up. You and Mo are the only ones who I feel has possibly trying to do that to me and I don’t understand why town would do that. So that’s where I’m at right now with both of you.
In post 921, Andante wrote:bugs tried to self for towncred... yeah no. I wanna lim bugs then deal withit
I’m not sure if either is town and if we’re actually looking at a bus. Their interactions have been really strange, which is why I think it could possibly be scum theatre.

this is either conformation bias from misguided town or outright scum trying to narrow votepool.
I’d wish I could vote both of you. And I’m really sick of you continuing to misrep my posts. Are you intentionally ignoring what I’ve saying because I think I’ve made my point abundantly clear. so you’re either scum or aren’t reading my posts? Which is it?

the problem is that with is that you have this playstyle of being offended when someone scumreads and you get in a state of paranoia where you are always feeling that you are being set up in which trust me i would to if i was in ur position. and that is what is throwing me off because like i could easily townread u for that right? but idk if you are doing stuff like this to keep throwing town in a disarray because like i gave you the benefit of the doubt multiple times with ur inconsistency and stuff. and you are using surface level logic to get your associations nd etc. like have you ever looked at this for individual reads and not just pairings and interactions?
i might have to iso ur other games later and probably give analysis and see if you are act like this when u are town; i think im ready to take this game seriously.
Okay, finally a post I don’t hate.
Maybe I should just vote bugs because I think that “hammer” was as sketchey af.

I think Loki's statement that everyone outside of the four people he mentioned doing a fantastic job of fooling him if they are scum, or whatever it was, is exceptionally poor.
George in particular, but you as well.
Why do you think this applies?
What do you think you've done this game that should put you above suspicion?
why are you concerned about a hammer here?
Why are you misrepping Hopkirk’s post? I just clicked 755 and he never said that.
If he dislikes me pushing back on your extremely strong townread on him, either he needs to think that he is very towny in some way, or he should think that I'm right and not dislike it.
I’m referring to that he didn’t make that quote but it could be something to do with the vote tags being messed up.

A log is less scummy than the way either of those two have been playing so extremely low bar but yeah agree.
I want to kill them both regardless of what the first one flips.
+1
I never actually thought I’d ever be mindmelding with you on anything in this game.
the problem with this loki is that vanders never really expressed that.
vanders just probably looked at what happened, glimpse over it and sheeped both of u and andante and is now trying to distance themselves from me because they were being alligned by bugs and you at one point
I’ve just been thinking about Andante’s post about bugs’ “hammer” and seriously struggle with seeing how that ever comes from town because it just sounds really fake. And even if you hypothetically flipped scum, why tf would they ever be the nk? Only way is if Vanders flipped scum, so I’m really thinking they could be scum now because they’ve been so over the top manipulative this entire game.

I actually thought Flow was Andante’s neighbour and GB was fn but I think Andante nk, looks objectively the worst for Flow, so I could do either since I really disliked that last post.
