You are not in the hard to win for scum minigame.
You went from the easy game for scum -> even game.

I am disinclined to believe that the scum team would move town!marci to 1v1 with faker, simply because scum!faker could 1v1 most people, and I think that they would want her to go up against someone who was not already primed to lose a different minigame.
It would be like trading an win at SGB for a win at MD, but why prioritize giving your hard hitter an easier win, instead of prioritizing another scum player.
My suggestion is we resolve MD after Sillyposting, which gives Lukewarm all the time in the world to read marcistar without letting him strongarm it if they wound up partnered.

I clear RH9 and can probably singlehandedly win the game off of it.
I generally disagree with this tho.
I think that this game should go earlier, because while i don't think that faker is scum, I would love to get the flip before just sheeping whoever she tells me to vote for

If I was told to vote right now, i would also be inclined to vote for penguin lol

While I realize this is the dreaded self-meta, unclear in MD plays against every strength I have in the game.
Straight up 1v1ing is my kryptonite as either alignment because town can just read the other person and ignore me. My "but I'm genuine!" spirit is truly non-existent after 12 years of playing this game and the tonal differences might as well be non-existent. People are going to expect me to hunt outside as either alignment but unless we win both minigames outright no one is going to give a shit how right I am.

Oh. Okay.
Resolving MD first sounds best to me since it's the option that keeps the most townies in the game to drive discussion? But maybe there's more important factors at play. (I also want to resolve it first so I can focus elsewhere afterwards but that's too personal and specific to really matter)

okay but why would scum!marci pit herself against a very good player whos much more convincing than she could ever be?
ur just reading the one side of the coin, you KNOW im a mild scumplayer, i dont like to have the spotlight on myself like this.

I'd push against this. Lukewarm is very good at reading marcistar and she will struggle to keep up later, especially if a scumloss comes through.

Frankly, this swap reads to me like the scum team decided that you were losing SGB, and needed to get you out of there to avoid losing the "easy game" for scum.
I don't really see the motivation to put this confidence in my reads given the last performance you saw from me, and my reads on Day 1 were clearly off as well.
I know you're exaggerating and being cheeky to some extent, but I can't tell if there is some hint of faith in my ability to read the other 2 games. I actually really did not want SGB as town because I have struggled to read Dwlee99 and Dragons, another case like that, wound up third. Sillyposting is doable but is the definition of suffering, but I do think I can contribute there and I would like to flip it before MD.
