No seriously that’s considered bad manners you can assume if a player has the opportunity to hammer in Elo and doesn’t do it they’re confirmed Town that’s just how it works.

still think RR has misplayed terribly putting the townie wallposter in ELo and then trying to push her. we're about to find out what I'm really worth though.
oh yes I’ve also never made it to Elo as hidden mayor. Even in the games I lived and tried there came a point at which it was just objectively better to reveal early.

I'm still trying to sort out if RR believes Upwards will wait to vote RR if I do. Which is why I haven't voted
Because you need the hammer. If you were Town, I should be confirmed scum in your eyes, but you're too afraid that if you vote me Upwards might hammer you instead, so you have to sit back and try to convince him to vote first
I agree it’s strange she won’t vote you but I feel like it’s strange as both alignments, like why do that as Scum either? I don’t see the connection between her vote and me potentially voting her.

If you were considering me being Scum why was lynnya asking you to make a Scumcase on me enough to bet the game on me being town? Again I see how it’s odd but what about it stroke you as so scummy that it has to be her?

I’m trying to make sense of lynnya apparently being 50/50 on who’s Scum to being 100% certain it’s RR the moment she got voted, as if there’s no chance in hell town votes her here and she doesn’t need to double-check at all. It’s weird that certainty came even before I confirmed myself as town.

RR wouldn’t find out if he’s Scum. And you’re convinced he’s Scum at this point. Weird post. I’d say scummy post even but I’m scared of believing in Scumslips when town writes dumb stuff all the time.

I don't want Rat to just agree with me, it has to be organic. that's my point
That post was actually the first time I understood what you’re doing here, and I’d guess it was the same for RR. I wonder if their vote came shortly after because they realized a pivot on me would never work.
Like that’s the deciding question in general; why did Rat vote when they did, immediately after you calling them cornered. A Scum motivation is easy to imagine but then I come towards the point where I ask myself: Is asking me to switch from them towards lynnya really more likely to work than letting lynnya talk herself into voting me?

I was keeping myself open to the possibility of being wrong about you, but still thought you were Town. I was trying to give lynnya a chance to make her case, and was trying to decide how much merit to give the meta, but between me still townreading you and them not giving me anything to work with but empty threats, I figured it was better to just rip the bandage rather than spend the next several days talking in circles about it only to most likely end up in the same place.
Maybe the real Mafia was the friends we made along the way

I thought RR was just stupid and town, mostly because I didn't know if scum always hammers there. I even asked about it before, if scum auto-hammers
