Why isn't the votetag working?

[pirate mollie]

VOTE: elyse

[Elyse]

Mollie has a habit of tunneling which leads me to believe she might be town? I really don't care enough to read into her at this point with so many other better options.

RC is town. The best we can do with her is try and convince her to vote with town.

How do you get a townread off RC?

VOTE: Malakittens

There is a lot of resistance to her wagon which IMO is a good sign.

Most of the resistance is talking about why she isn't scum rather than why she's town, which is another good sign. I also think her flip will be informative and it's not like she's being useful.

Why would "a lot" of resistance to her wagon be a good sign?

She did nothing and people having feelings for her at all is suspicious.

Malascum would have only one or two scum buddies who could conceivably be providing the type of resistance to a wagon to make that wagon look more appealing to join. How are you synthesizing those two points that stand in opposition to one another?

They don't stand in opposition to her. It takes one dissenting opinion. People are easily swayed.

@GC
Yates is really the only one giving solid reasons against the Mala wagon, but as I said, he's not saying she's town - just not scum.

Other people are just saying Mala is meh and not a priority

, but literally no one is saying OMG stop voting Mala she's town guys. And unless Mala is realllly bad I don't see everyone scumreading/nullreading/not giving a shit about her if she's town.

I did a quick skim of what I thought was the relevant portion of D3, and I didn't see posts to back up this bolded portion of your explanation. Can you please provide examples?

K:

Still not liking Elyse and need to give mala some thought. Also, I don't wants to be prodded.

So the current wagon is on mala because she didn't quick hammer? Is that the basic gist?

Fancy reading the thread before posting?

Simmer down. What am I missing?

That'll do.

Right. So this is your case:

Mala is lurking
Mala voted for mollie instead of Zek
Mala claimed she would vote Zek but didn't because "no quick lynch"

Am I missing anything else? I mean...

1. Mala has claimed to be sick thus not posting. I have been sick thus not posting. *shrug* Is this uncharacteristic for her? I'm not sure I've played a whole game with mala and if I have I don't know her meta. Outside of meta, I read this as null.

2. Do you know something about Mollie's alignment the rest of us don't? Point being - just because she didn't vote for Zek [or was even wrong about his newb label] doesn't mean she's wrong about Mollie. I'm not scum reading mollie but wtf do I know?

3. I'll give a minor scum point for the no quick lynch claim - but only because Zek ended up being scum.

@pisskop

- Do you have anything outside of meta on Marquis [and possibly the bitching]? One game isn't super convincing.

I remember I was voting Mala before the post loss but there was some reason I had why I didn't again but I don't remember (probably had something to do with not trusting Mollie's reads or Mollie herself). Actually I don't even remember if I'm voting Mala now.

@pisskop I actually can't see the difference in those two games you referenced except for that I lurked excessively as scum (half as many posts in that scumgame of equal length) so if there's anything specific that you want me to dismiss...... just tell me? idk

Lets not lynch molle

or mala

. UT, why is Mala a better lynch than Marquis?

and it's lynching pisskop

UT is playing for a double mislynch

Z-man. Who did you target.

That did almost nothing for me. Liking Marquis less, UT less.

This . . . shouldn't be a surprise.

I don't buy scum Mala. Im not going to defend her, but let's lynch better scumz.

That should be good.

Also, reading through that Day 3 again made me realize we should lynch pisskop.

And if pisskop flips town we should lynch UT and if pisskop flips scum UT is basically conftown.

UNVOTE:
VOTE: pisskop

[Untrod Tripod]

yeah I could do pisskop

[pirate mollie]

yeah I could do elyse or ut

[Untrod Tripod]

this is just going to be spyparty mafia all over again, isn't it mollie

[pirate mollie]

I have no idea what spy party is

[Untrod Tripod]

I bussed my roleblocker D1 and then bussed my encryptor D3

seems good

PEdit:
shit, you're right. wasn't I in a game with you where all your reads were wrong and you spent the whole game calling me scum and then we lost

am I thinking of someone else!?

[RadiantCowbells]

[Ythan]

Wow I suddenly get the rc hate.

[DeathNote]

Wow I suddenly get the rc hate.

Eventually she needs to die... I just don't know when.

[Untrod Tripod]

now would be fine

[Yates]

yeah I could do elyse

Why elyse? I'm kind of reading her as Town. There are too many people playing scummy right now and she doesn't crack the top 4.

Also, iirc Marquis *still* has some 'splainin to do.

[Marquis]

Yates, I'm not claiming anything for you.

[Untrod Tripod]

will you claim at L-1

[Marquis]

Yeah, we can redo Day 1 if you want. Put everyone at L-1 and make them claim

[Marquis]

marquis you are fucking pathetic

I did not like her avoiding crayon creatures questions and then saying "I DON'T TRUST YOUR MOTIVATIONS!" without ever throwing suspicion his way. the defensiveness did not match with the reason she gave for avoiding the questions in the first place. she hasn't been scumreading him at all this iirc

[serrapaladin]

VOTE: Yates

although Marquis has actually somewhat managed to make me question my townread on her...
