oops thought i had posted this damn glad it was in the history buffer. Also glad i reread it to check it was all still there. This post gramatically belongs before the last?
Most of my conscious read on the slot, comes as hold over form back then.
I spent a lot of time i might find more towniness, more recently. Up until now that has not been good use of time.
Claiming scum is WIFOM and every once in awhile there are scum that claim scum. The reason that scum get away with this is because bad/dumb town do it. I had felt like UC's scum claims were the type of Lulzy claims that come from silly town that think they are doing something useful.
My read back there was little more specific hence stronger. Having read lot of UCV posts prior to the game, some now in completed games some maybe not yet.
I read UCVs play as an extension, like, but even happier to play than previously. More lolsy, having fun. That felt wrong if I assume he'd just got scum PM in his first large game. Also his reaction to CABD
149 151 felt town (well town UCV : genuine).
My real concern with Lucky started with his quick hammer of Math. Being on a scum lynch is a tremendous amount of town cred and scum desperately trying to get on and it also had the added benefit of cutting off discussion and ending any mass claim. If Lucky is scum then I think this points somewhat to scum being in the unclaimed trash.

Didn't need to. I was in full control of the lynch with my hammer, why then add my role, it would only benefit scum to know at that point.

I think it was a perfectly reasonable question to ask why he didn't claim yesterday so I'm not the biggest fan of the slight pushback here.
I also feel like, if his reasoning for not claiming was that scum might shoot at him why he'd claim VT the next day. That seems very inconsistent.
I think... ditto on the push back? (need luckies explanation I think.)
Making yet another VT claim, does theoretically narrow the pool for possible Nks. In general i don't claim without a reason.
If this is his state of mind

his choices were claim then hammer, or just hammer. I cant see why the latter is not strictly better if he then claims the next day.

scum threatening to self-hammer?
Um that is reaching at least. More like bravado? and yes scum do bravado, so do some townies.
TLDR: You must hate that math hammer a lot for it to move your read that far. Me not so much. But perhaps if i look at it longer (sleep on it) it may as an idea grow on me.
