i don't see what you're seeing and i don't think cephrir makes sense as scum. i do think you're tunneled on that gamestate read, which is different from being tunneled on a single slot, but is similarly not very helpful for other people trying to solve the game.

i'm not really trying to roast you, just trying to highlight a flaw in our communication. can you explain to me why you're locktown on freedom?
I think voting for Junko yesterday when there was a free ride on your slot courtesy of Bell would be borderline throwing as scum.

do you think he's scum trying to use a pseudo-AtE strategy to win, or scum who's kind of abandoned winning and is just groaning his way through endgame?
those are two super different things
They sound similar to me, you could be pessimistic and still try to win via being willing to die so people think you're town. I don't get why you think they're towny

To be clear, I dont think that thinking about it as a counter wagon is very productive, since, at least from your PoV, both wagons were town motivated.

Votes on Dann were conf!town!Bell, and you

Votes on Junko were your current town reads, me and Freedom followed by conf!town Bell, then the self vote by Junko, hammer by Ceph.

i feel like i have a really warped view of this gamestate, might be recency bias or something thanks to replacing in. wild.

VOTE: SS

at this rate i do think furtive is the better lim today buuuuut
i want this to flip red so once again ydrasse can glare from the sidelines, unable to post (legally not connection-wise this time) while i steal all the glory

general like, vca thoughts (sorry (i'm not sorry i'll never learn)) - scum are much more likely to self-vote in game-critical situations if they've been correctly bussed.
not sure if that really counts for junko's situation tbqh but i'm just like the tiniest bit wary of freedom today :I

Still realistic, theworst could just be efforting as scum. But I'm sick of Cephrir's air of doom
So you're voting for me out of annoyance

Weird take from someone who's saying others are throwing
I think your air of doom is a scum tactic
cool

why?
Just seems easy to do
how does that make it a scum tactic
idk it's like a gimmick to try and earn pity?
you know what else is easy to do? attacking something without having any real thoughts behind it

for the record i think i'm a fine, albeit very far from ideal, lim today. keep me alive til f3, crossvote and i'll nail this game. i'm an ELO god and i've never misvoted once ever, not even once.

here's the thing... that doesn't actually win sympathy in mafia games. like, ever. ceph has been around a long time and has a high level of social self-awareness and i really don't think he's someone who would expect a (sorry if i'm wrong and this is mean) super phoned-in AtE attempt to get him through to endgame against this plist.

i don't think he's likely to anticipate someone with my kind of upside-down world view to replace in and white knight the strategy either

i kind of understand where you're coming from but please look at who's flipped scum again. this scumteam has been absolutely dancing on the town for at least 4-5 phases. do you really think cephrir, a capable scum player who has just utterly non-engaged with the entire damn team, actually makes sense as their last partner?
