Because FL is good town.

It’s pretty much a free check if my Ari read was right depending upon who FL pushes and their alignment
This sucks.. there are so many non "this" game related variables here to call someone town.
I mean people used the same logic for both Skitter and VP and dats?. Though reputation=//=ability. All these players have more than two brain cells and most people with more than two brain cells can be "good"
That’s why you sort them by results.

We agree on a lot of our scum pool just not VP.

You don't need to read back every post but a new player should at least be trying to gauge how the game has gone so far to deduce how likely their read based off one or two posts is to be correct. Otherwise I don't think their views counts for much, especially when we're on 3k posts.

I will say, Frogster's aloofness in this game is very different from his town play in the last game.

What's up with that Frog? You've seemed not super engaged with the flow of the game for awhile now.
Yeah, I think Frogster is being slept on after the very early game which felt kinda townie.

I don’t Have a strong opinion on tenebro. Could be frustrated Town or AtE scum. I could see either. If I had to pick maybe slightly lean town because it’s a sort of believable frustration.

Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Because your reads are very static. This is essentially the same pool you stated overnight in the hood I believe. Feels very safe for you to camp on and take pot shots at considering no one seems to care all that much.


VOTE: frogster BTW.

Will do this iso today, but frog was like losing his mind going after people for all kinds of tinfoil shit our last game where he was town and this game he is barely a presence. Idgi

not loving the fact that it feels like everyone and their mother is defending scorp, but let's see what happens here
I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”

Do my reads have to change? Dats is doing the same shit that you did d1 and trying to manipulate me to vote Scorp. Eyes wasn't great yesterday and all we've gotten was a promise that he's going to do better today. Skitter voted a claimed vig that is claiming he was rbed then left. Maybe he's scum and that might make her town but ultimately I don't feel like what little she did today makes me want to hard town read her. April pushed Malcolm and that's all he/she has done today.

but are YOU reading b/c I've voted Enchant and given my thoughts on both Tene and Scorp.

something something information gathering

his wagon is obviously not happening right now, so i'm prob not learning anything else from it

while i on first look don't like that his wagon is so dead, that's still a very surface level conclusion that i need to think about a bit more, and i can always come back to it if i want

Not true at all. Bad town of course will latch onto reads and death tunnel and conf bias, but scum feel obligated to create reasons to change reads. That's work. And people are lazy.

Anyhow, mafia theory debate isn't useful. If you're town, convince me why I should be voting skitter. Or Eyes for that reason. You're not doing that, as evidenced by the fact no one is following you.

i've always seen town be described as the ones willing to jump around and change their mind, while scum are the ones that are overly worried with their image and trajectories and all that

I've only played with Frogster once and while I won't rely on meta too much, they kinda played like this as town. Sudden flurry in votes is kinda interesting though. The slot could probably do with some pressure if nothing else since they've gotten an easy ride but wouldn't advocate for elimination right now.

Getting me to be a minor ass wagon on D2 is about as hard as getting rid of free pizza. (Also, would argue you actually did almost nothing to get this wagon)

You think you're truly going to get me limmed today with some lazy vote campers?
