Micro 772: Jester Nightless

VOTE: Ethos

Time to end this then.

[Mathdino]

wait fuck

ok if SS doesn't townread you as strongly as I do, there's no reason politically for him to lynch ethos.

scum!SS can't lynch ethos because that fucks his LyLo.

town!SS is currently more paranoid of both of us than ethos (is my interpretation at least).

[JaydragonKing]

Damnit Dino your scaring yourself out of a Lynch.

[Mathdino]

fuckkkkkkk

I really don't want to be in LyLo with you
but at least I can argue that I carried you to your first LyLo town win xD

VOTE: SS

We lynch here first, then ethos. I would legitimately like to end this game before my open starts and I really don't believe in extending a LyLo-esque 1v1 longer than it needs to be.

I hope I'm wrong and that SS is scum, but mod is online so we'll see soon anyway.

[Mathdino]

I switch back if SS comes online and plays ball, but this is the path of least resistance. Jingle confirmed to me he can flip soon if need be.

[Jingle]

@Mod

: Request that you get to work on the flavour before we lynch again!!!!

Formatting comes first, but I've been responding to posts that were easy to make jokes with. Of course, I haven't responded to you because you're enough of a joke without help .

[Something_Smart]

Honestly I'm confused at this point. I had Jay as locktown until now but I feel like it would be really low of Math to lie about all the stuff he just said. Which means I've PoE'd myself out of possibilities.

So at this point I don't know. I'm not going to rush though. Jay is still my strongest townread, though I might open that up to change pending some rereading.

However, I will say that your arguments for why eth0s is scum have pretty much all been bad. I don't think I've ever seen newbscum make a serious push and then try to argue that it was actually a reaction test, and I've seen newbtown do questionable reaction tests all the time.

[Something_Smart]

479 reads very much like a threat.

[JaydragonKing]

I hope you both remember that Ethos has his vote on Smart, so I can literally end today too. Or we can go the SMART way, and have Smart vote Ethos and then you hammer. Then you get your quick Lynch, Dino.

Win-Win.

[Something_Smart]

Hey Jay.

Can you answer why you townread Math so much?

[Mathdino]

Maybe it's a holdover from earlier days. I picked up that tell from 2013/2014. There wasn't any breadcrumb or indication that his push on me was a reaction test.

I do actually think his self-vote was a gambit designed to look like a reaction test, but his initial push on me looked as serious as they come. That's what I don't like. I think he's encompassing EVERYTHING into the reaction test bucket. The self-vote thing ties it up in a bow.

Most of my arguments so far have been why ethos's behaviour is consistent with scum. Like his D1 behaviour is likely what would happen if he and N_M rolled scum together. My actual reasoning for why he IS scum is that his Assembaa hammer and D5 push of me were his ways to overcome his primary obstacles to get to LyLo. Finally, after all that didn't work, he finalises by buddying me/Jay and deflects onto you.

Edit: It's literally just me wanting to get this game over with. Whatever path to lynch ethos sooner is a good one in my mind. I've policy lynched people for not playing ball in endgame before, I don't really have a huge issue with it. Sometimes hits scum tbh.

Edit2: I'd like to hear that too actually

[Mathdino]

The "policy lynch people who won't help you" very nearly worked in Polygamist Mafia actually, which we just won

Not that I'm bragging or anything >.>

What works works.

[Something_Smart]

How confident are you that eth0s is scum?

[Mathdino]

If you're looking for "enough to stake my life on it", not THAT confident. Never that confident.

At the beginning of today I might've been willing to, but your behaviour today (especially your lack of confidence with what should be obvscum by PoE, along with the lowkey shade toward the Jay/me mutual townread) is actually exactly what's making me slightly less confident.

[JaydragonKing]

I'm more confident in the idea that you and Dino are the other two town, Smart.

Does that help?

[Jingle]

How confident are you that eth0s is scum?

I refuse to answer this question on the grounds that it is not directed at me.

[JaydragonKing]

... Even the fucking Moderator is waiting for us to Hang Ethos guys. That should be a huge indication in itself.

[Mathdino]

or SS tbh

[Something_Smart]

I'm more confident in the idea that you and Dino are the other two town, Smart.

Does that help?

What would you do if we lynched eth0s and he flipped town?

[Mathdino]

SMH
literally the last time someone stalled the obvious "day before LyLo lynch" by deflecting onto me, they were scum
i'm getting flashbacks to a game i do not want to recreate
can we end this jay

Edit: jesus christ, you're clearly wanting the answer of "not lynch you"

[JaydragonKing]

Well all three of us and the Moderator are still here, so we can continue day 6 immediately and end it today anyway. It will probably be ending now though.

Do you see Ethos defending himself?

[Something_Smart]

Eth0s has asked to be lynched on at least three separate occasions.

[Something_Smart]

Edit: jesus christ, you're clearly wanting the answer of "not lynch you"

And yeah, I am. Is that surprising?

[Mathdino]

Eth0s has asked to be lynched on at least three separate occasions.

complete misrep

the last time he asked to be lynched, it was a reaction test regardless of his alignment

he made very clear that he wanted you to be lynched afterward tho

Edit: it's not helping my paranoia

[JaydragonKing]

Ahh fuck it, I was going to save you for last but since you wanna be a close about it.

VOTE: Smart

Is it done now, Jingle?
