Essentially, Fires role has 3 components and is called a fortune teller? One component looks to the past and is like a tracker, one is a present day one (the snarglefargle thing) that I don’t think we know what it does, and the future one lets him pick someone in the future to redirect where they go(ie, he targets us n1 and makes us go to you n2)

Dunn and I both were a bit skeptical, particularly of the last part of that claim. Herr’s main holdup is he’s unsure if it makes sense for scum to have two separate redirection abilities.
Uh
Can he be the bus driver lol ?
Do you think the bus driver has a backup too?
Oh fair, i thought brian was a backup bus driver for a second

What did he want to be leashed to exactly?

gth i would do marci tbh but im not very confident in that
marci's day 1 posting seemed like she was uninformed about Brian's alignment. It has this meandering quality about it that makes me think she was considering his alignment instead of setting out with a specific read

wolfbae's defeated attitude is weirding me out a bit, but I really liked his D2 posts and still want Sunflower flipped

more than brian skies, i am concerned about dunnstral, esp if actiondan winds up being the scum in the hood. dunnstral is easily more active and i can see some reasons here, though i understand the associations im building makes me biased.

Oblivion's Dethy speculation is similar to where I'm at in that I feel as though it's probably best to table the Dethy hood for a day unless we feel really good about an elimination there.

I do like how Oblivion segued from the Dethy spec into discussing reads. I feel as though scum love to discuss setup spec, and Oblivion didn't just let the conversation linger there. They took initiative and moved the topic elsewhere. I agree the retraction on Marci feels town as I feel scum are less likely to just change their reads like that.
This just feels town??

Like why mention scum love setup spec of all reasons to tr someone? It feels like brians thinking of the game as a whole instead of looking for easy to make reads.

unless y'all think marci is mafia, one of the morph!scum belivers in the hood had to be lying knowing fully they were nightkilling morph

who looks the most fake when putting it under that light?

It wasn't faking it purely for fun, I literally just explained this to you

I was attempting to give cover

My thoughts were if we flipped scum they might attempt to shoot me to prevent me from using the investigation, or roleblock me, or steal it, etc

I know there is scum in the hood but I was working off the possibility they could be a traitor who has no communication with the groupscum

It's entirely possible no one knew, is the thing. I don't think it's purely alignment indicative.

The selection of marcis posts you quoted look like she was trying to throw a bone to Brian several (but not 7) times before giving up because he couldn't be saved

And "I kinda townread this, does anyone else?"

And "hey Brian what are your thoughts about x?"
