Also, sorry Moz. Botched that one. I should've townread the buddying, but you were too hard to sort from the start of this game. RIP
I think I can agree to that. Might as well get to know where everyone's head is. Idk where everyone went for like...20 something hours.
So we have 5 people. 2 more lynches until LyLo. I might as well be the first one to make a case on people.
It's funny. Almost everyone I'm reading back on has said at one point or another that they can't really get into this game. I'm glad it wasn't just me.
In a particular order:
Comm: Although I wasn't a fan of how he started the game, after looking at it again and from the perspective of Luca, I can see how that comes from the perspective of town. Although I did not notice it myself, the townslip he did on day two, and the way the mod responded to it, seemed like a legit town-slip. Scum would know if their own is dead, and mod would know that too. If we get to LyLo, I want him to be there and if he's scum then mod would be kinda biased towards scum imo. I will say he is the only person I hard townread.
Impede: The mistakes he made early in the game seem to be that of not fully reading. Idk if this is NAI or not, but I feel scum would be a little more...cautious reading posts? I find it kinda weird he thought CoA was towny in
734 but wanted to make a case against her in
752 which he then retracted with a wall of quotes without much analysis. I wouldn't be surprised if he's scum, but a lot of his missteps seem unintentional. I don't have a strong case for him either way but he seems null town to me.
CoA: Okay so I'll admit, I'm trying to piece what the case against her is because I just see a lot of people throwing shade but nothing actually happening. I swear to god she is like on everyone and their mother's scum list and yet so many other people have been lynched before her. I don't get why? Was every other person too big of a target instead of her? I kinda want to hold on getting a case on her until I can get a proper explanation because she looks slightly town to me?
Luca: I'll be honest. I don't trust his play style. He took his advantage of the UVC thing to call himself confirmed town. He does have a habit of scumreading people who do the same to him. He doesn't like people questioning his authority, as if taking charge equals being town. Yeah, he's good at making cases, yeah he helped find scum, but to be fair one was because he was inactive and the other after trial and error. Yeah, I pushed him twice now and I've had to back off because my specific arguments weren't the best. But at it's core -- his self-acquired power bothers me. Out of everyone, he's the one I'm the most worried about -- and I don't think my fear is unfounded. Yeah, I could be wrong, but I think this is a powerful educated guess that we shouldn't have at LyLo. If there is a better case, I won't mind going to that, but I want to push Luca for now and see how everything transpires. I want this to be said now: I don't want to mindlessly push him. I just don't see a better option right now. Maybe I'll move to CoA if I can understand what the argument is.
VOTE: Luca
