Townstumps Mafia (Endgame)

[Gamma Emerald]

Would you not think it possible she noticed that trend herself and actively tried to play ahead of the curve on it?
I feel like in past years she’s become more self-aware of her meta, especially her scum meta

Sure was aware back then.

She wasn't stupid.

Took ME a while to catch on, though.

She took until one specific game AFTER I started playing to bother messing with the “Titus never busses” meta point
So like, I think she’s the type to not blow a meta load until it has a real payoff

There was no payoff in blowing her meta on d2.

How so?

D1 was a strategic Bus.

Scum were very much in control of the game with the ability to multikill and had town happily deluded because of the red flip.

There was literally nothing to gain by reaching out to me when

1) she wasn't in danger
2) I don't have the clout to influence the game that I used to since I've just come back

The reachout was purely for my benefit. Not hers.

[Moongrass]

Well house, I'm town so from my PoV there's 2/3 scum and I don't like losing. So if you're town too then you either have a bad read on Titus or you're scum.

[NorwegianboyEE]

I’ve wanted Titus dead since day 2.
When will it happen?

[House]

That depends.

How intent are you on losing?

[NorwegianboyEE]

Please AtE harder.
I care so much for it.

[House]

You should've told Mia to say that.

Would've been more believable.

[House]

Please AtE harder.

That's not AtE.

That's snark.

Recalibrate, bruh.

[Moongrass]

I'm literally reaching out because I don't want to lose. I don't want to pick the wrong 1/3.

[Moongrass]

Norwegian how do you feel about the hydra?

[House]

I'm literally reaching out because I don't want to lose. I don't want to pick the wrong 1/3.

But like, this is 99% of my problem with you.

You spent so much of the game acting like you knew me, just to disabuse me off the notion when I started speculating on who you might be.

Behavior I found acceptable conning from someone I'm familiar with was off-putting coming from a stranger.

"I don't know you like that."

Sigh. Edit.

[NorwegianboyEE]

Norwegian how do you feel about the hydra?

My PoE remains exactly the same.
Hydra is a townread.
Some scummy slots pushing an mislim on Cyrus yesterday did nothing if cement the reads i already had.

Ok sorry if I was too familiar, I like to mess around and didn't mean to make you uncomfortable. That doesn't mean I'm scum.

It wasn't off-putting in a personal way as much as it was in a game-related way.

When friends buddy me, it's just banter between friends. When strangers do it, it's sus because it can be manipulative.

You realise that wagon was lead by town?

I see. It is just me. It doesn't specifically come from town or scum me.

[House]

My vote is symbolically on the Feys.

[Moongrass]

Titus, any thoughts?

[Moongrass]

Feys why do you townread Titus?

[House]

It's bed time for me.

[mastina]

So we have scum PR fuckery happening. NK was an planned buss. N_M openly choreographing his every single move instead of crumbing, two awful back to back eliminations, not respecting the time left to deadline even though i’ve specifically asked for it, not eliming in my PoE at all, killing pne of my townreads.
Whew, that was a mouthful. But i had to get that rant out there.

Hey I argued my heart out against the cyrus elimination.

I SAID it was a bad idea.

I SAID I preferred Titus > House > literally any other elimination.

I'm rather miffed that nobody unvoted cyrus while I was catching up and very clearly stating my preference.

And House placing cyrus at L-1 was utterly unacceptable.

I very much want to vote one of Titus or House right now but I owe y'all the promised due diligence where I actually theorycraft and go over the possible combos.

[mastina]

Oh and Titus and House openly PR hunting in thread and exposing N_M as a hider for some reason? Where the fuck is the town motivation in that?

A good question!

One which I am tempted, very oh so much tempted, to back with a vote.

[Moongrass]

Sorry Mastina. It all happened quicker than anticipated, I wasn't expecting house to effectively hammer when he did.
