Blitz 26: Maintaining Law, Order... (Game Over)

[Ranger]

BIG PROPOSAL:

Everyone announces their target going into night. This limits scum's options. If they activate their PGO, we'll have a fairly good idea of where they shot, or didn't shoot. There can be a false positive, or scum wifoming and trying to create a false positive, but we can use our intuition for this, especially if the jailkeepers also do this.

I will target: lane.

[Ranger]

{Dwlee}
{GuiltyLion, pisskop, Lucky2u}
{lane}
{Titus}

Not voting yet.

[Ranger]

I mean i for one will be getting reads before I decide who I will target.

I can always change my posted target.

And actually: this is another game where I'm reading everyone as town. Titus is the weakest townread, you're the second-weakest. Obviously I'm wrong unless the scum are in the three players yet to post, but the read is what the read is.

Stop claiming visitor you plebs.

I didn't. Every town player has a night action. Therefore, everyone has someone they can target.

[Ranger]

ranger why arent you on the titus wagon?

Like I said: least town, but still town.

[Ranger]

VOTE: Persivul.

[Ranger]

{Dwlee}
{GuiltyLion, pisskop, Lucky2u}
{lane, Almost50}
{Titus, pignash}
{Persivul}

[Ranger]

Explain.

Titus recently explained her scum game as being, "talk about the optimal town strategy and watch as the town doesn't do it, then complain". That is what I saw from her.

pignash is posting similarly to how he traditionally has when scum.

Almost50 is probably too low on that list, but is town enough.

And Persivul...well, he's just always scum.

[Ranger]

Like I said, I don't like trying to outsmart the setup, especially when it advocates for a no lynch, now that you point that out. I don't know if he's scum or just anti town at this point.

Painfully obvious town, and any who vote Almost50 are suspect.

You think scum are

actually

going to suggest a no-lynch? No, in my experience, scum are the ones who always

insist

on a lynch.

Of {Titus, pignash}, Titus now looks worse to me.

[Ranger]

VOTE: Titus.

[Ranger]

{Dwlee, pisskop}
{GuiltyLion, Almost50}
{Lucky2u, lane}
{Persivul}
{pignash}
{Titus}

[Ranger]

First : Let's agree what happened on D2 was the most reckless town play ever. That speed lynch didn't only turn to be a mislynch, but didn't give us any additional info to help us reassess our reads.

Yeah, pretty much any day you

don't let me freakin' post

will be like that.

I visited lane N1, and GuiltyLion N2.

VOTE: Persivul.
Persivul was painfully obvious a Titus scumbuddy.

[Ranger]

Like: Persivul's interactions with Titus are textbook Persivul scum play.
This is

exactly

how he treated MaxwellPuckett, and OceanWind before that. He's the final scum, and if you had let me speak yesterday I could have told you this then.

[Ranger]

@ranger, who would scum Persivul target?

Like I'd know. I've only gotten to see his scum topic when I was in it.

[Ranger]

Look.
pisskop did not bus Titus.
Dwlee, lane, and Almost50 did not bus Titus.
That was an all-town wagon.

Scum is in those who did not visit Titus.
You mislynched pignash.
Lucky2u is also a mislynch.
The last scum is Persivul.

[Ranger]

VOTE: titus

lol wagons for the win?

This is not bussing.

While Lucky2u does admittedly have some Titus defense, this was not scum RVS-bussing their scumbuddy.

[Ranger]

If there's scum in {titus, pignash}, it's only one. 108 - 111 seems way too obvious for scum buddies. But what's your case? Just that Titus opposes a NL, and pignash voted you?

This is bad, especially given his later pignash vote.

How is Ranger obvtown? She gives little in the way of reasoning or pushes. There were already two votes on Titus when she hopped on that wagon. Ranger is a good player and I get that she can't obvtown it or she gets NK'd, but that comes at a price. The new Ranger is IMO difficult to read.

This was discrediting me when I was pushing Titus.

I've played with him as town before and setup breaking is exactly what I would expect. I didn't like the self-vote, but his response felt genuine. I've made bad posts in the middle of the night too.

What's your read on Lucky?

This interaction with Titus was forced and awkward.

You don't think a Titus lynch is lazy? In my experience she's a pretty common mislynch target. Last time I played with her, I was scum and lynched her D1 even though she claimed (and was) a town vig.

This is further Titus defense.

But most egregiously...

So modkill him, I captured it.

The request for a modkill is something I have

only

seen from a scum-Persivul, multiple times at that, and never from his town self, because the modkill is an incredibly scum-oriented goal: something scum want (a free town death), which town do not.

[Ranger]

The game honestly just needs someone in that slot submitting an action. Doesn't really matter who.

[Ranger]

Don't think there's anything to add.

[Ranger]

Or Titus was obvscum and so was persi

Yeah, it wasn't too hard to figure out.

MOAR BLITZES!

I know, right? They're so much fun.

[Ranger]

Wouldn't be the first time. There's a reason I'm considered among the best analysts on my home site. :P
(I also die appropriately often.)
