You're so hung up on redtea when I'm saying basically "whatever, kill them". Like, if you guys want, kill them? I don't care that much even if it wasn't my preference to how today should go.

You want to frame this as if I'm doing all this to protect redtea when I'M NOT, I'm doing this to increase the odds of killing your slot GL, without me needing to spend one entire week here hyperposting and casing you.
bro you unvoted redtea and tried to use your claim to bully the town into limming elsewhere or no limming today

if you don't care about redtea, let's flip them

See? this?

You're also trying to tie your alignment to redtea.

EVEN IF REDTEA IS SCUM I THINK YOU JUST BUSSED.

Redtea is such a fucking OBVIOUS BUS, and I believe at least implo is town, so the play here would be to do redtea and shade me/implo to get two mislims later.

I'm trying to kill you here EVEN IF REDTEA IS SCUM, because I find your posts/engagement towards me and implo disingenuous.

I just THINK that redtea is more likely town than not due to how you're pushing them, but more importantly, I think you're scum in almost all scenarios in this game so I'm kinda just gambling on it

like stop bringing up redtea

whatever kill them don't kill them

I just think you're scum, and if you're town you would miseliminate me anyway GL, so what I'm doing is trying to claim to:

1) Either get NK'd and confirm my slot.

2) Get me result on you and either confirm you as scum or as town.

I dunno if you guys respect my scum game or not, and I don't care if you do or not, but if I had to say one of my tools as scum is kinda ~sensing~ what slots are gonna be eliminated or not. I just feel like tomorrow if we kept going in that road was gonna be people voting either me or implo tomorrow, and people not believing my claim that I'm a cop if it was when I was brought to E-1.

Sure, maybe I'm wrong and tomorrow would have played differently, but I don't want to RISK it. I'm trying to make it an almost guarantee that either I'll not be a miselimination by NK, or even if I'm miseliminated, I'm gonna be able to get my result.

Why claim today now and not tomorrow?

MOMENTUM!

It's a really dumb thing but many town PRs are killed thoughtlessly even if it doesn't sound optimal because they wait to claim at E-1 and by then people are really confident they're scum trying to save their own skins.

If I waited until a E-1 to claim my role, the narrative would be I'm trying to do all I can to help the scum team even if it's just buying a no elimination.

I'm foreseeing that's how tomorrow could likely turn out, so I'm trying to rewrite history before it even begins by claiming today!

You're just reaching now

I still said in the post that redtea is more likely town than not by how you're pushing him

but IF redtea is scum, he's an obvious bus. And you've been shading the slot since D1.

It's that simple to understand my point but you're trying to make it look shady.

???

why would they claim early to save their skins when their skins aren't in danger at that moment?

claiming like I'm right now is definitely weird though, I'll give you that.

So in tenet, I made a joke partway through day one that my half of the game were behaving all civilized like we were at high tea with tea and crumpets while the other half of the game was behaving like they were in a rumble, like end of movie outsiders style. I then wondered if the reason for that was that we had more scum on our side while the rumble side was mostly town eating each other.

I’ve had a flashback to that thought a few times while skimming this game day. I wonder if there’s something to that.

yes Shirou, you haven't changed tack from the "GL is scum no matter what redtea's alignment is" position you took several days ago that I already called out as feeling disingenuous, but you can't even keep your story straight about what's "obvious". is redtea scum or not? why aren't you voting them? You keep acting like you're totally fine with redtea's flip but then you insist that we should no lim by virtue of your claim and that you don't actually want redtea flipped. I am trying to corral as many votes onto redtea as possible, I will stop harassing you if you are taking the position that you are never voting redtea here

if you want to no lim at least once, it's better to do that on D3 when we have information from redtea's flip, potentially a fua cop check, potentially another N2 cop check, etc
