you were dedicated to your loki pocket and you thought it would win you the game, that's why you let loki guide you to the flow elim and why loki is still alive at the endgameIn post 1394, Hopkirk wrote:i clearly voted Flow because i agreed with Loki's casing.-

how would you be able to talk loki out of pushing on flow when flow has no townreadable content?In post 1394, Hopkirk wrote:if it was me + Flow then i'd have tried to talk Loki into voting Mo then killed Loki at night.-

@Loki
If you look at the progressions that Hopkirk/Me made on Flow Trap, look at which one makes more sense from a town perspective and which one makes more sense from a scum perspective.
When I rep'd in, I asked Flow Trap for his reads, the reads he gave me were pretty awful and I felt he had just made them up on the spot. That's why I ended up hammering him.
Look at Hopkirk's progression. He's essentially using the Flowtrap Elimination to pocket you, once you decide flow has to go, Hopkirk follows along because he knows he can get towncred for following you and then cruise into the endgame.
One of these makes sense as the bussing scum, one of them does not.-

I would imagine that you are already pretty heavily pocketed even before the flow trap flip since I asked you about your read on Hopkirk and you essentially said you trust him completely.
Flow Trap flipping red will only cement this townread you hold of him and allow him to cruise past F5 into F3 where if the pocket holds he should win.
He is banking on you never re-considering your read of him.
Given that information, who is more likely to bus flow trap there,
Hopkirk who has a clear path into F3 riding with you pocketed, or me who has just rep'd into the game and barely knows what's going on?
Think about who had more to gain and who has a clear path to winning.
Re-read your hood thread, was it Hopkirk who brought up killing Flow Trap, or did you bring it up and he just nodded along and agreed in order to get on your good side?-

idk why you're trying to convince Loki with something that assumes you're town since if Loki holds the view that's required for this to make sense then they wouldn't need the logic because they'd have already decidedIn post 1397, Emily wrote:

i don't have 3 scumreads there in a 2 scumgame btw, i have 2 because 2 of the people in scum were in a hood and couldn't be scum together like i said
Your readslist puts your partner above null while putting 5 townies in null/scumread.
Even a player randomly throwing darts at a board would be able to hit at least 1 scum in 5 guesses, the fact you didn't is pretty shady.
i reconsiders Vanders. i didn't push him post flip so this assessment of my motivation doesn't hold
i could have justified a vote on Mo over Flow fairly easily. i didn't because i was more convinced by scum!flowIn post 1398, Emily wrote:

didn't have any partners in that zone in my most recent scumgame either btw. i had 2 in the scumpool and 1 as a top townread so doesn't feel like you're even trying to make that fit
except i know that Loki has read that game closely so i'm not going to try and actively misrep itIn post 1399, Emily wrote:
no I said you were being dishonest about what happened in the game.In post 1394, Hopkirk wrote:i'd know Pooky NEVER busses because he defended a partner d1? that doesn't follow unless i've read a ton of pooky games
You said Pooky bussed Morning Tweet but neglected to mention it was because of a mech-guilty result on her slot.
From just reading Day 1 in that game where Pooky doesn't bus Spring Breeze but chooses to defend her harder as she is inevitably going down, you would know he doesn't believe bussing makes sense as a viable scum strategy.
you said pooky never busses
this is a scenario where scum subbing in to a definite wagon being pushed by multiple UTRs and you panic hammered

other people had bad content. i could have talked loki into Mo first if i was confident on it and i could clearly have scumcased Mo so this doesn't make any sense as a tacticIn post 1402, Emily wrote:

loki is still alive at endgame because Vanders said repeatedly in their last posts they would 100% always vote you and you couldn't take that into lylo. it's not as complicated/wifomy as you're trying to present it. if i was scum i'd always kill Loki hereThere's no reaching. I've become enlightened.-

you wanted to maintain the pocket so you went along with him in voting flow.In post 1405, Hopkirk wrote:other people had bad content. i could have talked loki into Mo first if i was confident on it and i could clearly have scumcased Mo so this doesn't make any sense as a tactic
this sequence is much better than if you defend flow and divert to mo
you'll get the mo mis-elim on d3 anyway since mo defended flow in a really dumb way-

you think Vanders would not re-eval if he wakes up alive on D4 knowing he had been raving about voting me?In post 1410, Hopkirk wrote:Because I've seen Loki re-evaluate in every lylo and would be aware they would here
Vs Vanders who hard SR you and would have likely factored in Loki's hard TR of me
Seems quite unbelievable to me.-

Hopkirk, there was no way I was moving off of Flow to Mo because A) I thought they were going obvious scum but still had doubts on Mo. I guess that should have told me something.
B) When Vanders said he wanted to elim Flow right after Mo, I decided to test that because I was still unsure on him until he actually voted Flow.
I wasn’t sure on Mo but didn’t want Flow to escape in case I was wrong on Mo, so I was pretty set on that.
I wrongly sr Mo based more on what I incorrectly thought were associatives with Flow plus of course PoE.-

So, where I’m at. Still haven’t fully caught up due to not feeling well - is that I would a thousand times prefer to lose to scum!Hopkirk over scum!Pooky
so if I was a purely emotional player, I’d 100% yeet Emily but I’m not. I’m a primarily logic, intuitive and evidenced base player and I connect the dots and figure out what adds up and what doesn’t.
Flow was starting to look a bit better at the time Emily hammered him, so why does scum!Emily insta hammer Flow when monkey thinks I’m powerwolfing poor innocent Flow. and Vanders is beginning to have doubts on him?
The wagon could have very easily switched and probably to Mo would be my guess since no one who had fully red the game would be voting me. *spanks monkey*
So I remember being really grateful to Emily for that hammer.
Also, Hopkirk claimed to believe that GB was fn and had town neighbor!Andante flipped instead of fn!Andante, I’d probably not have wavered from my hard Hopkirk tr.
But if Royalty is any example, when doesn’t town!Hopkirk have strong opinions and reads? Why does he sheep me on Flow if he’s having doubts?
Also Hopkirk. when I said that I hard tr Vanders because he wanted to steer clear of pushing GB, your reaction to that didn’t make sense. If GB was actually fn, then of course that would have been a towntell for Vanders but it seemed like you maybe forgot about that?
And the series of posts Robert made calling Mo scum - while albeit wrong - sounded like he genuinely believed that to be true.
So my heart wants to yeet Emily into the stratosphere because I don’t want to chance being fooled by scum!Pooky on a fake newbie alt - no less - my brain is screaming at me that it’s Hopkirk.
I will wait until I fully catch up and feel better but that’s probably where I’m leaning.
