because I said so

[Ausuka]

Also I'm not knocking new london, that's just what colonial names are like

Datisi was clearly trying to insult british people in that meme smh

[Ausuka]

From datisi? Yes. This man is a menace

[Ausuka]

If I was scum I would totally hammer here

[Ausuka]

Wait this isn't e1 I've been lied to

[Ausuka]

Anyway I'm not participating in this plan because I've never watched minority report

[Ausuka]

You're just a peasant of dystopia like me you can't call guilty on crimefuture

No I am not a stardew valley character like you

I eagerly await the nonsense

[Ausuka]

im usually a big proponent of rvs but thanks for playing along

45 is nai and i will fight anyone who says otherwise. i'm now confident on my page 2 read and i'm inclined to deathtunnel your slot

On a scale of not serious to extremely serious, how serious is this post

[Ausuka]

VOTE: patchwork

[Ausuka]

Krile pls talk to me about drew

[Ausuka]

ausuka talk to me about krile

I don't really agree with you but I don't think your push is particularly scummy right now

[Ausuka]

Drew is very Dr I voted him in rvs

Tbh patchwork seems like a boring place to start but that's not significant that much

My impression was that we are out of rvs

Why do you do this to me Krile

[Ausuka]

ausuka talk to me about krile

I don't really agree with you but I don't think your push is particularly scummy right now

why do you disagree

The extent of your reasoning that you have posted is that 'these posts cannot come from town' and I am currently unconvinced that they cannot come from town

[Ausuka]

Although to be fair I wasn't a big fan of post 80

[Ausuka]

ausuka talk to me about krile

I don't really agree with you but I don't think your push is particularly scummy right now

are you seriously saying 37 comes from a town mindset? that's setting up the easiest misexec on the fucking planet

and then she tries to discredit that push with an absolutely pathetic 48. how is this town?

Maybe there's something I'm misunderstanding about 37. It just seems like a shitpost about a movie I've never watched

The three people in the small good have to pick someone they want to eliminate and it has to be unanimous then everyone else joins in.

?

I read that as part of the joke setup

I think it's pretty obvious who krile is and given my estimation of their mafia ability I don't think their nefarious plan is to just suggest this and expect it to work

Whatever I mean ask krile about it if you want

[Ausuka]

I think it's pretty obvious who krile is and given my estimation of their mafia ability

i actually have no idea who krile is

Skill issue

lmao probably

sharing is caring, who do you have in mind?

It's not actually a skill issue I just wanted to get back at you for your 'meaningful information' line

Not super comfortable outing who I think it is rn but she is, like, an experienced enough mafia player that I think there is a very small chance what you are saying is correct

[Ausuka]

that's not as stupid of a post as you might think though. it's a strategy that actually sounds
reasonable by virtue of being adjacent to another that actually is
viable (that is, to choose the execution in the small hood)

This strategy sounds kind of bad and also not fun to play. Is there something I am misunderstanding about it

if you get the hood themselves to decide on an execution, then with 1/3 scum all you need to do is convince ONE player that the vote should go to someone other than you. that could be trivial depending on who's in there, and you can do that in a very noncommittal way and frame that as caution

it's low risk, high reward

Yes I mean hypothetically you could indeed do that, along with many other ways to eliminate town on day 1. Maybe you are just on a higher wavelength my puny brain cannot comprehend

pedit: mhm

[Ausuka]

Also I am definitely not voting someone because some punks who have statistically above average odds to be scum tell me to

if we correctly lim from the tiny hood we have a conftown tomorrow

I read that as, the small hood chooses the execution

I don't really have a problem with limming in the small hood exactly

[Ausuka]

boy wouldn't it be great if we all heard something from ausuka, or krile, or greeting, or perhaps patchwork

Wow I'm sorry for going to sleep

[Ausuka]

Sort of confused by townreads on bulge. I think they are ~probably~ the most likely of the three to be scum

[Ausuka]

kind of leaning town on bulge given him wanting to elim in three hood. but i also want to hunt more in the bigger hood instead of focusing on people in my hood if that makes sense.

in essence i want to go for the easy scum but focus on everyone else first. end the day on 3p hood cause 50/50 odds is just too good

Who do you see as scum?
You are in the 3 person hood so do you feel either of the people in your hood is more likely?

i said who i think as scum if ur asking for my own hood gun to head right now its osuka. But im not gonna focus on my hood till i think i got a good grasp on ur hood and want to hunt there.

r u guys using hood right now? we aren't using our hood at all just discussing if we should even bother using it.

I guess I see the validity of that.
Who is it then in our hood then because I don't feel there is a thing as easy scum and feels like you may be opportunistically going after an easy elim.
There have been posts in our hood.
I don't like the way you seem to be asking about easy scum hunting then voting the manga on krile while deflecting on who scum might be. And then asking about the hood seems odd as it seem you are trying to fish out how much it is being used.
VOTE: firebringer

Can you elaborate on what your problem is with FB's 'easy scum' remark about a 50/50 situation? Like 1/2 is a lot better odds than 1/6

[Ausuka]

I haven't liked any of krile's posts so far but I'm leaning town there because i feel like scum her would be more focused on presenting well and making Good Posts TM

[Ausuka]

VOTE: Walter

I think this is the right place to go for now. 88 just seems like a post which is really hedgey and more focused on maintaining the appearance of being active and doing something than actually finding scum. I'm not really a fan of the Firebringer push either - I'd like to see him elaborate but feels kind of forced to me rn, especially the part about fishing out how much the hood is being used

[Ausuka]

If you're suspicious of them do you not think paying attention might be helpful?

[Ausuka]

i only just started being suspicious of them literally two hours and thirty minutes ago during one of my classes lol

Maybe I didn't make myself clear enough

I want to understand your thought process between zoning out and not reading the conflict to being confident enough to express a theory based on your opinions of the conflict, all without reading said conflict?

[Ausuka]

VOTE: patchwork

ok Captain Isis

[Ausuka]

Sort of confused by townreads on bulge. I think they are ~probably~ the most likely of the three to be scum

Could you elaborate on what is scummy on bulge?

Not really? His posts come across as easier to fake than the others and I was surprised people were acting like they were obvtown. I wouldn't scumread them independently of the hood mechanic.

[Ausuka]

to respond to Ausuka asked about the easy scum in the 3 person,
it is a problem of numbers as i see it now that i don't have a 3 hour class without eating afterwards.
I think my problem with it is lets say we elim 1 of 3 and they are town which has a better chance of being.
The scum team would not unless they are stupid go for the remaining 2. so that put it in the big hood to be shot leaving us with 7 with 5 in the big hood. Yes that does set up a 1v1 d2. this however leads to if town is elimed then we know who the scum is by d3 which puts at 4 in the big hood but we quickly eliminate the scum putting us at kylo d4 with 3 people. However eliminating the scum then instead of town leaves us with 5 as the clear most likely has to be removed then. That is better but i feel still the chance to tip is there. I feel it is too possible that going for the easy one leaves with too much tunnel for the late game instead of a proper solve. I don't think seeing us spiral into one strategy is a good idea. I do admit though that tagging the scum if obvious d1 in that group leaves us with a min of 1 clear for d2 which is useful. I think now having written this out it might be the best strategy because the fact that going from the bigger group leaves scum with a chance to whittle it to 4 and 3 which would be to their advantage I think.
This all assumes that scum has to target the bigger hood and does not wish to force the 1v1 quickly.
There is probably something I have missed there though.

Ok, but this is all mechanic discussion - how does it link to Firebringer's alignment?

[Ausuka]

This isn't about you this is about walter smh

You can go and be scum in your corner

[Ausuka]

This isn't about you this is about walter smh

You can go and be scum in your corner

Don't tell me how to play scum

I'm not, I'm telling you where to play scum

[Ausuka]

wow rude

[Ausuka]

you could at least have put me in

- THE FROG -

or something

[Ausuka]

Oh yes that's absolutely the entirety of my response

[Ausuka]

I mean you barely even said anything tbh I was underwhelmed

[Ausuka]

Shrug, I agree this game isn't particularly lively, but that doesn't mean I'm going to have a response to most of that

I think I have done things

[Ausuka]

and like i still think walter is a wolf. i'm going to keep questioning him if i can but people were mostly just shutting that down

[Ausuka]

Death note

[Ausuka]

VOTE: Bulge

I don't think patch's posting makes much, if any, sense but I'm not actually sure if it's coming from scum at this point and bulge's playing around it feels like he is taking advantage of it

I am also automatically meaner to people in the small hood sorry

[Ausuka]

I will answer that but I have a quick question first if that's alright

What is the scum motivation for patchwork to pretend to not know what 334 means?

[Ausuka]

scum motivation implies strategy but i am talking about a pattern of nervous behaviour and what i perceive as feigned ignorance (given the benefit of the doubt)

What is the thought behind feigning ignorance there as scum? Like, what's the point?

[Ausuka]

Like to me it just seems like you're more focused on things that are wrong and pushable than like finding the scum and stuff

[Ausuka]

youre missing my point, im not saying theres thought behind it, the behaviour im describing is not something one does intentionally.

Ok then please explain what exactly I am missing - what is this subconscious process that would make scum misunderstand that?

[Ausuka]

what

[Ausuka]

Krile pls give me the decipher code for your posts

[Ausuka]

My main account is Isis btw

so not enchant

you thought that was enchant right @ausuka?

No I thought it was isis

I know isis

[Ausuka]

I also don't think she talks that much like enchant but ymmv

[Ausuka]

No I was just getting revenge for osuka's dig at me earlier

[Ausuka]

gimli do u have any more thoughts on Bulge other than the meh

[Ausuka]

Thank you for pocketing me gimli

[Ausuka]

the content is garbage but i don't think you're stupid. you're posting stupid things but you're clearly not an idiot, hence the frustration.

How would you describe the quality of your own content? What I've gathered from re-reading the thread is that

Doctor Drew

made more effort into building an actual case.

effort != quality

in case it wasn't already patently evident, i wasn't trying to build a case on drew because i don't see anything in that slot that's super scummy yet. the push was badly misguided but i'm not sure there's any ill intent

Who are your biggest scumreads at the moment?

Who are your biggest scumreads at the moment?

[Ausuka]

that is meant for greeting

[Ausuka]

i wanted to notify greeting with that big red button at the top of the screen

[Ausuka]

I'll think about it

[Ausuka]

isn't datisi the pagetop daddy

[Ausuka]

oh and this one is mine >:)

[Ausuka]

oh come on that's not fair he's only, like, what, 40 years old?

[Ausuka]

fwiw my reads now are something like

{drew}
{osuka, patchwork}
{firebringer, gimli, krile}
{greeting}
{bulge}

[Ausuka]

It's like a 2/10 post

It's not the worst post ever but it's pretty bad and I'd like krile to elaborate

[Ausuka]

I am now leaning scum on krile maybe

[Ausuka]

The thing about drew feels.bad and in general I don't think any of her posts.at this point feel town which like, it's page 23 there should be something

[Ausuka]

I mean it is true that i am not really doing anything right now

In my defense the day started when i became like actually busy

I think gimli saying "if i die fb is scum" and then dying is pretty lol but I'm not sure how to read it

[Ausuka]

Osuka why did you like, not really post about the bulge wagon and your read on him?

[Ausuka]

i'm slowly realizing that being put in the small hood means i'm pretty fucked

Oh also can you explain the mentality behind this post please

[Ausuka]

i'm slowly realizing that being put in the small hood means i'm pretty fucked

Oh also can you explain the mentality behind this post please

so here’s the scenarios right

- i get executed d1. this is bad because i die d1.
- town in the small hood gets executed d1. this is bad because there’s a 50% chance i die d2.
- scum in the small hood gets executed d1. this is bad because there’s a 50% chance i get nkd n2.

make sense?

Mm I guess I'm trying to ask why you view getting nightkilled as a negative outcome?

[Ausuka]

Osuka why did you like, not really post about the bulge wagon and your read on him?

i didn’t have a good read on the bulge or fb at the time. they were both pretty hard to read

Yeah uh sorry to ask so many questions but did them both having a 50/50 chance of being scum not, like, influence or affect your view of the situation in any way?

[Ausuka]

VOTE: osuka

Mhm sorry if it's just firebringer but i think this is the better vote today

i think the lack of interaction with the bulge wagon is pretty bad and i don't really buy the "they had an equal chance of being scum" justification of it

[Ausuka]

garbage push with bottom of the barrel reasoning

let me know if you have anything of substance for me to respond to

Have you responded to bofa yet?

[Ausuka]

basically her whole thing was just a big spin on whatever information had already been said (why i didn't vote bulge, for example)

724+728 in particular fucking reeks. she's asking "why didn't you vote one of them if it was 50%", which is EXACTLY why i didnt wanna vote either of them because i wasn't sure which one it was. that's an excellent chance of nailing a scum slot but it's also very risky to vote early and misexec because we would essentially give up the chance to have a conftown slot for a day

you didn't even fucking comment on the players who you knew had literally like

1/2 vs 1/6 chance of being scum

that is a THREE TIMES higher chance, that absolutely warrants like some sort of curiosity at least, maybe some sort of take on the bulge wagon but there was literally nothing

but not only did you apparently not even care about that, even daring to ask about it makes you some kind of idiot apparently

[Ausuka]

i mean maybe it is just firebringer but im never going to get there by talking to osuka so whatever

fb probably gets killed today regardless so if he's scum you guys get another chance after killing me \o/

[Ausuka]

Drew why do you think greeting is town?

[Ausuka]

ausuka is probably scum and im too tired to think right now but in the 1% theyre town i dont want a quickhammer

Can you clarify why you are so confident you think the chances of me being town are literally one percent

[Ausuka]

if i am scum here i bus firebringer like 100% of the time

[Ausuka]

Whatever i mean i'm always going to get killed today anyway and i guess given this i don't have any objection to you guys doing patchwork which is what you were going to do anyways

[Ausuka]

Fwiw i think the last scum is greeting

I think the journey from "I can't find reads" for most of the game to "scum must be ausuka or patchwork and i don't see any other solution" is pretty scummy? I also think if patchwork is scum it's a bit strange how they just keep casing me when that is not all that necessary and other people are setting up the second miselim on them, which *is* necessary

778 feels like a post a partner could make?

I don't expect anyone to listen but shrug those are my thoughts

[Ausuka]

Can you elaborate on your opinion that scum wouldn't hammer scum

[Ausuka]

k

[Ausuka]

i am not even scumreading krile but i am amazed at how easily you guys are clearing her

no we don't even need her to show up or say anything

[Ausuka]

you hammered scum you can be proud!

gg and thanks dats
