These numbers seem to be coming up a lot in VCs.

I did a Google search and these numbers seem important to Lost.

Any suggestions Lost nerds?

they're the player numbers for the scum team, the mod put them in the first post as an easter egg
Unlikely. OP says 5 mafia.
obviously 42 is not one of the numbers since we have 26 players

The numbers were the series writers' way of having fun. The idea was inspired by... (ugh) j.j. Abrhams.
Also the 42 was indeed a hitchhikers reference. *Fist pump* I don't get points fo that, everybody knos that.

Disappointing
stop agreeing with me then.
You have Ceph in the wrong place, Bell probably too high for what he's done in this game, and there is still no best bird on this player list, Ducky ain't playing.
Happy to hear about Ceph and Bell if you want to expound upon.
Bell is fine-ish. I don't think he's done anything to generate town reads but that's hair splitting on my part.

For Ceph I think he is trying to solve the game, and I don't agree with the way people are scumreading him. I don't know why you are, but I don't find his frustration and defiance against being scumread as alignment indicative. I have a more specific interaction in mind where I decided Ceph was town based on, but I need to go back in my own posts to see where I clocked that interaction.
Would you accept when Ceph said vca is trash??

VOTE: Dancing Puppets

Seems to make sense when focusing on the feedback from players I townread.
Bruce: Terry. I've been thinking about something you once told me... and you were wrong. It's not Batman that makes you worthwhile; it's the other way around. Never tell yourself anything different.

FYI the main opposition to scum!Puppets is coming from Dunn. I think CSF adequately addressed Dunn's reason for townreading Puppets.

I literally invited you to make a case based on logic based on my predecessor.

How is that exactly turning the conversation away?

You really are grasping at straws here.
What part of asking me about my read precludes you from thinking "I need to start pushing in a different direction"

Because that was the point I was trying to get across. This feels like an argument about how I possibly used less optimal words to express that, and therefore it is to be dismissed entirely. Which is not a discussion I enjoy having on this site, though it does feel like I end up having those a lot.

I saw you actively responding to the fact that you were getting pressure.

Then latch onto a post to vote bell. Concluding that because you saw a single post talking about a video game, that you could then compare that to his entire prescence in a different game.
In post 2510, MathBlade wrote:They seemed more contenty in WH13. Here it’s about a game.

It pings me wrong.
Trying to draw that comparison feels more like you were looking for someone to vote, then a real genuine basis for a scum read.
Because I was and still am actively talking about it. Actively talking about it is the opposite of trying to steer away.

Asking you to expand more on my predecessor and the reason you scumread them (which you haven’t done) I think is more valuable to sort if you’re being genuine. I don’t force conversations as scum. Many people who know my scum game know this fact.

You’re contradicting yourself more often than anything here. I don’t get why you have this tunnel and that’s what it is whatever your alignment. You’d be better served by calming down and explaining.

You’re pitching my actions as scummy versus a genuine belief is what I get right now.

That's why I'm asking. It was around that time I felt it, and when he said that was when I articulated my read. I think Ceph has been fine, I agree with him quite a bit this game, and I haven't liked some of the pushes on him.

Coincidentally it's also why I haven't gotten on board with BBT either. Too many people shading him as a scumread without strong reasoning imo.

While it's obviously impossible for every player scumreading Ceph to be scum, it doesn't look all that great to me. I don't see it.

I haven’t interacted with them (or don’t remember their posts) so I have no opinion.

I am starting VCa to get an idea where to read since no one answered my question about where to read. A spreadsheet of who reads who as what is helpful as I go along but VCA is something I can do to get reads without waiting 3 days to parse all of it.
