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.

interesting that both todays wagons have now parked on my vanity wagon while refusing to actually talk about each other (or be here) that much.

Not sure what it means but honestly I think it DOES point to maybe S-S

I'm not sure either, I think it seems most likely at this point though
assuming
there are 5 scum left. I think he does a little research into players meta to get a sense for what they townread for and how town generally react to their slot.

Nero predicted that the masses would not want to support a wagon on fire (or anyone else other than me/Mena). If that ends up being wrong, then we get to see who ends up leaving which wagon, what the lead wagons end up being, and what kind of stances the three of us take on each other. If two wagons are better than one, I'd say three wagons are generally better than two.
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!

I was kind of considering this to be not really applicable because its S_S specifically and he usually just wouldn't vote in that situation regardless.

But I think him voting fireisred changes my thoughts there considerably.

It doesn't. I threw that in because the first part doesn't really apply to Mena imo mostly because he hasnt been here.

I agree that this often points to S-S. I think it also mildly points to T-T, but I'll have to see what Mena does when he's here. I feel like at least it's reasonable for me to not have much to say about that slot, because he hasn't done much.

I can see how my wording there is confusing, I was mostly trying to say {doing something from within this subset of things} and instead the post implies that both are doing both things.

on one hand, i am liking what s_s is doing. on the other, i know that earlier today, while i was taking a walk, i was thinking how scum!s_s doesn't necessarily make *sense* because scum!s_s would have an idea on what he has to do to get townread, and he was obviously not doing that (e.g. being unhelpful when you asked him for a new solving strategy or wtv), and that didn't quite make sense. however, now that he's gone into doing traditionally townier stuff...

I think this goes against your character you portray when you say not to be ableist or whatever against people's intelligence.

As either alignment I think I would find you pushing me annoying and not much more because I think your scum finding methods are not better than random chance and I don't particularly feel like its worthwhile to do anything to them besides just dismiss them off hand.

Like I feel very strongly that if I were scum here I would not care about you pushing me at all except in the sense that it makes the thread kind of unpleasant to read.
