Excluding confirmed alignments from now on. I just figured out Dunn was dead. I am bad.

Oi, Davesaz. Why does the time into the day make something less scummy?
Page 7:
LeanTown: {Davesaz, Bins, Ranger}

Tentative townlean on Ranger. I can understand her reads, nothing contrasts with what I'm thinking.

LeanTown: {Davesaz, Bins, Ranger, Umlaut}

So many questions I want to ask Transcend rn.
Page 10:
LeanTown: {Davesaz, Bins, Ranger, Umlaut}
Null: {APF, Loopdan}
Mid+Scum: {Transcend, LQ}
Scummy: {Smithereens}
Reads unchanged.
Both Transcend <-> LQ and Transcend <-> Smithereens feel like they could easily be scum-scum interactions.
I'm not especially impressed by the Transcend <-> Bins interactions making Transcend town either.
Done for the night.2019 stats: Town WR 76.7%, overall WR 81.667%, 1 scum defeat involving a major mod error in lylo vs 8 scum wins.-

Not OMGUS. My vote was on you yesterday. I think I spelled out my reasons for Transcend being scummy. You haven't done anything to make me change my mind.
Ranger's read list is upside down from mine. I know she's wrong about me and Ira. I suspect she's wrong on Umlaut and LQ. I'm just not sure that Ranger being wrong means that Ranger is scummy. But I'm leaning that way.-

If you're leaning Ranger as scummy, why aren't you sorting her with the golden opportunity the IC has given you? I mean it's pretty obviously not scum driven.ShowThe scum had the misfortune of Titus being absurdly accurate on day one.Really quite impressed by that.~Drixx

Reading over Ranger's ISO because a bunch of people are voting her but I haven't seen a case of any kind yet, and to me there are a couple of things that seem inconsistent with being scum.
First of all, she's just put so much weight on her four big scumreads and doesn't even seem to think anyone should need convincing on them. Even after yesterday's flip she just says, "Okay, I guess scum is in the remaining three." I suppose scum could fake that attitude but it's just not as likely as town having it genuinely. And meanwhile she says this about LQ:
If she's scum this is basically what she's doing, so it would be a big gamble to bring this to people's attention as a thing that people can do.In post 368, Ranger wrote:As scum, LicketyQuickety thrives, absolutely thrives in town assuming this. He will throw bad reads around, make a lot of noise, and people will basically go, "terrible" but also "not scum", allowing him to push an incredibly pro-scum agenda and get away with it.
Secondly, on D1 she was making reads based on the assumption that Ira was scum:
At the time I thought "If Ranger is scum, she's saying this to set me up for a wagon the next day," because there is no reason for her to to set up an argument of form "If A is scum, then B is scum" if she already knows A is town.In post 725, Ranger wrote:Umlaut sees LQ's play, and recognizes that it may or may not be good enough to survive, so he takes the stance that LQ may or may not be scum: waiting to see which way he needs to go.
Umlaut sees iraonavp's hilariously terrible play, and recognizes that it will expose the whole scumteam if left unchecked. He makes an initial effort to try and limit this, but when iraonavp continues to make a bunch of moves that Umlaut sees as bad, he does the only smart move as scum: cut his losses and in no uncertain terms leave iraonavp out to be shredded by wolves.
(I am a bit confused about why she'sstillscumreading me since this is basically the only reason she's given out loud, but I'm pretty sure she had me as an unexplained scumread before that so it's not inconsistent, just weird.)
I think her calling out LQ's vote on Ira was also based on the assumption that Ira is scum, but she didn't really explain what specifically was scummy about it. Hey Ranger, why specifically was LQ's vote scummy? (I didn't like much it either but I want to see what you say.)
I guess neither of these things is inconsistent with SK, but (1) we don't even know whether there is an SK, and (2) I haven't actually seen anything I'd call scummy from her in the first place.-

Scummy can also be lack of townie. Lack of conviction, lack of scumhunting activity, narrow focus of interaction or avoidance of certain players, etc. I would need to reread to tell you if texcat matches this pattern...
Ranger matches the pattern of someone who could be scum confidently pushing cases, knowing they are wrong, but also knowing that they can manipulate certain members of town to follow them. It is very difficult to sort this pattern from someone who is town and confident and trying to lead.

This is full of no.

Eh. Definitely gonna call LQ/Smither the 2 top scum picks. Reasonably OK with voting LQ as of now on the condition that town lynches the fuck out of Smither following a scumflip.
Aka, don't ignore my reads if I die.
The fuck is this? HI I DONT CARE IF MY READS ARE SHIT I HAVE SHIT READS ALL THE TIME. Who advertises that as town? Like holy Amoline mother of Annie.BTW, I don't care if my reasons for Scum reading someone are wrong. I do that all the time and am known for it on my home site.

Ranger, we need to talk about why you're townreading Transcend and Smithereens as of this point. Neither of them belong in your top townreads.
I'm not going to post my continued catchup until I get a response.2019 stats: Town WR 76.7%, overall WR 81.667%, 1 scum defeat involving a major mod error in lylo vs 8 scum wins.
