It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!

Why does worst not vote S_S here?

Because regardless of who dies, scum loses a member.
No, because if the team is Bingle/imagine, voting SS loses.

It's a fringe case, but yeah. Worst's number one pick is imaginality. It make sense from a town PoV, it's NAI

Refusing to share reads initially but actually having extremely strong ones, defending tw and scumreading imaginality but not actually trying to kill him, refusing to compromise or change my reads at all during the course of the day

I feel like putting on a facade of reads without actually acting on them in any way is kind of scummy, yeah. Like, do you care about getting imagineality killed over tw? I honestly didn't even realize it til earlier today when I checked.

Also I don't see why you play that way as town either so I can't exactly award credit for that

Imaginality isn't at E-1; it makes no difference whether I vote him now or not, except that it might allow a quickhammer.

I'm fine with you banking on imagineality town House but I'm more comfortable killing SS than worstie.

But if you're absolutely sure, I will switch, because we now know worstie isn't 8-ball, at least.

If you really believe SS is scum though, killing SS first leaves dark horse bingle alive in the end game I believe.

Kill town worst -> kill scum SS -> scum nightkills me or you -> Bingle/imagine/meoryou Xylo

Intriguing.

It's not just like voting though, you have no presence or attempt to sway, no sense of urgency. Like from your PoV the worst wagon should have been a grave mistake and I deadass didn't notice.

But yes, I am aware your play tends to not be push-focused and is pretty observational.

If anything, that would help you towards null but certainly not town since this is how you tend to play always.

yup, because I think my execution may not be inevitable

I only feel that way as one alignment, that's for damn sure.

We want one in the danger zone not two, you know. That's unnecessary risk. There is no reason to be doing this. If someone other than you were to vote SS i would unvote probably as a snap reaction. The ball is in your court rn

I'm kinda hoping someone does, actually.

On either wagon.

That would be informative in itself.

well I mean I listed a bunch of things that aren't that that seem like they'd just be putting up a neon "kill me!" sign as scum.

which may be, but my argument is kinda that if I'm scum I'm very likely to be the 8-ball playing this way. because I'm playing in a way that I would expect to get me killed. and why do I play that way when I could play a different way? do you not think that I would have received less pressure if I hadn't done some of the things I mentioned?

+1 all you learn is whether someone is the 8-ball. which is not useful.
