Mini Normal 2298 - Game Over!

[Elpis]

Caught up, a few notes:

Andante, just because I think Cephy did something mildly scumlike doesn't mean I SR him immediately, I'm just suspicious because my reads fell through. After his bodyguard post, I think he's still my highest TR.

Cephrir and Andante are probably my TR's, with Merlyn and Marquis as scum, but these are subject to change and we have a lot of time to discuss reasons more and regather our information. I haven't worked up the energy to do the ISO's that I need to do, but I do want and plan to.

[Merlyn]

Days
- 14 day deadlines.

There's no way we have a 4 day deadline right now

The last votecount I can find is page 75 pagetop, and I think maybe the timer is from the previous day?

Not sure if this was like a townslip or some attempt to dumbtell? cause I'm not sure how you think this is the most recent VC, says day 4, Norwee (who is dead) is the top wagon

[Andante]

also this made me notice, marquis voting norwee? norwee died, and marquis is gone.. hmmm there's so much to this game, but based on how merlyn has been playing, I don't think I believe Merlyn genuinely thought this was the "most recent vc" like, you trying to rush us into voting??

like yeah, I was looking at that "vc lol" chilling on the top of a recent page like "how long is day", but then went to page 1... so ehhh

[Andante]

I wanna vote merlyn right now... not gonna lieeeeee

[Andante]

I also want new marquis to join us asap

[Andante]

up to p3 I'm pretty sure marquis managed to spew themselves town and I'm townreading FBer's #72 on why he is pushing NSG.

2nd post in the gimli iso. hmmm

[Andante]

of course elpis is also a townie

lol nice

[Andante]

the problem with nsg wagon is...its very easy to hop on without actually saying much about it. And I feel some people on it are like not commenting or examining anyone else which makes me hesitant to add anymore votes on it.

whereas andante. I don't see as town right now or scummy
I could also hop on not mafia but the problem there is i don't think hoping on that will make not mafia magically readable and or help sort anyone else who hops on. So I am left with wanting to push my nulls.

glimli is andante town then for u if this wagon is ass

yeah its

I played with scum andante and she was quite reactionary like she is being here but I feel like here she replaced into a not-scummy-slot and her posting hasn't been awkward and rn the strength of how much she believes in herself seems like things andante might have trouble replicating as mafia

attempt to pocket me?

[Andante]

StD doesn't obvtown. He is more like silent town with eventually decent good takes on day 2 and onwards that goes unappreciated

so true

I have stronger tr on firebringer by the time of this post

norwee can prob be town too

I think nsg is a townie? seems self aware in a way that's too incredible to come from scum.

but feels like trying to pocket fire more

[Andante]

nsg scumreads are really dumb

Wagoning N_M is just so dull but i also want them resolved.

where did that strong NM scumread came from?

Brian Skies - idk

Andante - town

northsidegal - town

Marquis - town

Not_Mafia - idk

Gimli - the gim
Cephrir - idk

Ethel - town

Elpis - town

Save The Dragons - idk town?
NorwegianboyEE - idk town?
ballpointpen - scum?
Firebringer - town

I didn't realiz all this "TR TR TR!!!" stuff, and like, coloring it by the flips, I don't love this list lol

[Andante]

and what I think is interesting is that NM thing, like Gimli is just over there judging reads, whatever, but you say you have NM as "idk" but 577 feels a little defensive for someone you don't have a read on

[Andante]

I can flip NM

I think this take seems decent though. but I get that it's good in a more likely than not to be tmi

and then "yeah I'm cool flipping NM"

[Andante]

like, 10 posts from "where did that sr come from?" to "I can flip NM"

the more I read the scummier I find this slot lol, but I hate this kind of reading cause merlyn here is just gonna go "wasn't me!!"

[Andante]

Marquis is clearly playing seriously by [post]111[/[post], which is just a vote with no explanation yet- but for some reason a bunch of posts happen and no one asks why, or tries to get serious with him. I see there are some dead townies in there, but I’m wondering if there was also scum trying to prolong the silly fun times.

I give up on Gimli stuff, after that reads list... I don't TR anything I'm reading lmao
figured I'd look aback at merlyn's entrance
This is right as Merlyn is catching up, this feels like scum repping in going "I'm gonna bus my partner who isn't doing anything, and carry the team!!" like, I want to say I was throwing around Gimli and Marquis's names around that time too? -not certain, but I do think Merlyn knew Marquis wasn't a TR, and thus made this post, feels like an odd post for "catching up"

[Andante]

I mean I'm aware I'm being a stick in the mud but I do think scum appreciate being able to hop in with random talk the past 12 pages like most of town have been. I guess scum could coast like NSG but don't think anything about this demoralizes scum

Yup, that’s my thinking too, I think scum has no problem prolonging the randomness and funniness of the game so far.

HE ALWAYS HAMMERS EVERYTHING UNVOTE NOW

Okay, that’s pretty darn town.

What a wild situation! Two now conf town almost threw a hammer to a now conf scum. I’ll be honest, I’d be scumreading NSG/Brian right then if I’d been in game.

No free outs. You have to suffer like the rest of us.

Y’all

Not gonna lie, the catch up posts like this, sure at first they look great, but I'm sitting here reading it now like, there's nothing to it other than random commentary, like, fire being fire is pretty darn town?

[Andante]

So my slot essentially caused the D1 mislim, sucks to be me

Ppl on the Enchant wagon that aren't conf town: Cephrir, Elpis, NorwegianboyEE. I think there has to be scum there. The idea that it was an all-town wagon is too much for me.

Okay, have to take a break but will start again tomorrow

So we just drop the idea that Ceph is in this pool that "must contain scum" and give him our vote here? ah yes! klick strat is flawless!!

(ok, gotta go to class, I'll be back to reading tonight!)

the more I read this slot the more tunneled on merlyn/gimli I get, like, there's no way this is town

[Merlyn]

based on how merlyn has been playing, I don't think I believe Merlyn genuinely thought this was the "most recent vc" like, you trying to rush us into voting??

This is the funniest thing anyone said about me on the forum so far- my evil plan to TRICK THREE PEOPLE FOR FOUR REAL LIFE DAYS to rush a vote. What could have gone wrong, how did you see through this?!

[Merlyn]

Feel free to keep building a case against me/my slot, that's what the game is about. I'm not ignoring you, but I don't think there's anything I can say that will make you change your mind if you decide I'm scum, so I don't know that there's much point filling another page or two responding to them like I did yesterday.

[Cephrir]

Ya if you have energy merlyn I think figuring out who is scum would be more useful than trying to defend

[Cephrir]

Andante I feel like you started at the conclusion so of course you saw scum there. Not saying that makes you scum or even wrong, just tunnelled

[Andante]

uhh I looked back, went "this looks bad" and yeah. you suggested I look into Gimli, yeah.
anyways, change of plans, prof just sent out the review for finals and it's kinda a lot so I'm just gonna focus on finishing this semester for the next week, might show up this weekend, but Tues/Wed of next week I'm going all in and solving this game.

@TOWN - if you are town, PLEASE do not vote anyone in the next 7 days

@Whoever cares, I'm going V/LA for the next week - I need to focus on finals (I literally failed an entire semester because of mafia before and that got me an extra year... I'm supposed to graduate in 2 weeks!!! finals timeeee )
(I promise I'm delivering on content/walls of reads when I'm back! I have no doubts there)

[Merlyn]

oh damn, congrats on graduating!! Good luck on the finals
