i will be my undoing if i become my obsession.
i will forget the ones i love if i do not serve them.
i will war with others if i refuse to see them.
therefore i choose to turn away from my reflection,
to rely not on myself
but on my brothers and sisters,
to project always outwards

Congratulations! You've discovered why "vibes" (uggg) alone don't work. Good that you rescinded the furtive read as 737 was rather contrived, even you must have felt that when writing that out right?

I think the basis for the Enchant read is way better in 721, though I am not fully onboard until more time as passed. I have played with him too as scum and it became rather obvious he was and while it wasn't exactly quantifiable there was definitely a reason why that I will not explain. Caveat I haven't been in an extended game with him as town.

I'll revaluate my Hugir read and see if it holds up.

I don't like 715. Aside from a rather major flaw in the logic, there's no connection whatsoever between 635 and the speculation in 715. Thus it was said to be said with some sort of purposeful intent.

About Kawaii. They're green scum. And they've been green scum 100% since the Rauth flip. I was looking a bit to see what everyelse's reaction today would be but no one really did any haw-hemming
I'll give you a moment to let that sink in

All I can say is that I agree about the lurking being meaningless. Also, KawaiiKame is still new, having joined the site less than two months ago, and that makes their play harder to read. Newbies make newbie mistakes, but even so, I feel good about this.

By the way, when I first mentioned switching to KawaiiKame, it was based on nothing more than the off chance that your predecessor had gotten demoralized and replaced out because of their partner. Why I picked them over Goldfish was because they came back and continued to be useless. Given how few people were actively posting, I was fine with getting rid of a lurker, while a replacement could still redeem Goldfish's slot.
Kawaii and I have been going back and forth on our games in how inactive we can be, assuming due to outside life.

Kawaii did not want this lim. I'm actually fairly confident that they would have preferred a nolim to it.
This makes no sense from a red, especially if it's true that they can't crosskill directly. This also makes little sense from blue; it's also an unfortunate stretegy for green, but at least it would make some sense.

I just read this and it made me come up with a rather wild speculation.
Assuming it's true scum can't crosskill directly, but still have a way to get the other scum killed (per the phrasing Rauth used), it's possible that each scumteam has a publishing cop on the other scumteam.
So basically my specuation is that Malediction can check if a player is Benediction, and post that info publicly.
If that's the case and they used it on The Keeper, then The Keeper would be mechanically confirmed not scum.
Of course it's just wild speculation so they are not actually confirmed, but I am just bringing this up as a possibility.
I hate this post so much. Reads like scum pointing town in a direction.

We should likely wait for kawaii though, I do agree with that vibe. I need to consult with my other head a bit.

Sorry, I'm trying to say that they're trying to pull town toward scumreading cop claims preemptively.

Proof that I'm town:

This game means everything to me. I desperately want to catch both scumteams and prove that Invocation is the superior concept.

I believe Kawaii exposed himself by trying to save Rautherdir and that his posting after the wagon on him grew did not recognise it or attempt to defend himself from that wagon enough.

I have a useful, provable role that matches perfectly to an appropriate flavour name.

I have a few townreads and a scumpool.

This is all true.

I knew I was supposed to check out something about Hugir from Dan's towncase in them. Did not remember that it was the attempt to clear Snakelet.
Meh
I guess that if I squint it can be a little +town
I do think ease of direct town reads is a bit +town as well

But still not really convinced, don't see anything scum can't fake, still think this is a nullread for me at best

I'm thinking that Kawaii is approaching the 72 hours mark where they would be replaced. How would we react to a replacement? Would they replace into the game only to be asked to claim and get eliminated anyway? I guess that's a risk. But they could also replace into the game and be really obvtown or something. But who would we wagon then? Intriguing what seems like the majority lack of interest in an alternative wagon so far.

Yeah, even if you think that Kawaii's slot is so lost no claim is going to save them, at least knowing their N1 actions if any could be useful at some faraway point in the future
