I re-read stungun's post last night:

whoever is town should really consider posting less content because there’s way too much unnecessary content being posted in the thread

I think I didn't help enough as I should D1 looking at my postcount. Now I'm going to try keep things short, concise and clear with my observations/reads. There will unlikely be any unnecessary/NAI posts like this anymore. I'll look at your vote of me later D2, which is admittedly surprising (in relation to the strength of the reads you have expressed so far).

Again. Stop saying what you’re going to do instead of doing stuff. There is literally no point in making a post telling us what you’re going to do. It serves no purpose.

It’s basically “hey guys. I’m going to do some really pro-town stuff later. I just want everyone to know about it” it’s garbage. Go do it and stfu until it’s done

Hey guys I’m making an unnecessary post here just to tell you I’m not going yon be making any unnecessary posts.

I still personally think sho is scum but if I’m all alone I’m not wasting anymore time pushing it. Skittle is scummy also. Bernie’s weird hammer looks bad also. I don’t remember my day 1 read of keyser was but his day 2 gut pings me hard. These mom votes also ping me.

Wagon on/off is a small subset of vote patterns and behavior. Seeing who has pushed/voted for people throughout the game is very important.

I think declaring the number of scum you think were on/off the wagon is like looking at a bunch of stars and going into astrology instead of astronomy. It's important to look at who voted and what their reasons were, and who didn't vote and what their reasons were. While it's often true that some scum are on and some are off the wagon, there's really no reason to assume that. Weren't we both off wagon for the JB lynch?

No, I helped lynch JB, and you helped lynch Thor, and both our slots lynched Flicker.

It's not "astrology", because I'm including:
1. how nearly impossible it is for 7/10 town to vote one of the other two town without a single scum vote
2. Scum incentive to vote town
3. That weird lull in voting and talking while the wagon was on Gamma that made me think he was scum but instead it now seems more likely that scum was waiting for us to make that mistake
4. There are 5 non-Gamma players off-wagon and 7 on wagon, meaning it's already +rand that there are more scum on wagon than off
5. Scum incentive to not all vote in the same place.

I'm obviously not going to vote someone I townread because of VCA, especially because most of these players seems smart enough to mess with VCA at least a little as scum. But vca is a helpful tool and it is honestly just very likely that I'm write about the 2/1 split, with a possible exception in the case of lurky scum

Lol it would be nicer if you would just know I’m town and believe the things I say

But I guess I could write out my thought process in full more often, when that’s helpful

It's nicer for everytown involved if you continue to write out these thought processes regardless of how much I think you're dirty dirty scum

For me it would be :P

Sometimes thought processes seem self-evident to me, so I don't share them. More words for the sake of more words isn't helpful. I hated writing out every step in math class when I was sure the teacher knew what I meant. But yes, I'm probably underestimating how often my thought processes are helpful, so I'll include those more often.

How does this question help you sort Shoshin?


Also @anyone with experience: is there
precedent
president for there to be > or < than 3 scum in a 13 player mini theme? Like does that happen often/happen in other brassherald games?

In post 1667, Nauci wrote:You guys have got to stop town reading math

He's promised to come back and post several times, but I'm pretty sure every time he glances over, he sees that people are oddly town reading him and decides lol I can only make it worse by posting and fucks back off

I know because I suck at scumming and that was basically how I did it. And because Math repeatedly professes to suck at being scum.
i'm not townreading him; he's hard null; i can't imagine that he's decided to stop posting everywhere on-site in order to win this game as scum; it's just not something i see him doing like ever

i think he's just busy irl

pressuring him when he isn't here to see it doesn't do anything and won't get him to post content, and brass said he'll replace him in the next couple of days if he doesn't come back

pushing him is a waste of your vote because if he's literally not here and doesn't see it voting him won't make him do anything. like that isn't an effective solution to this problem

the way i pointed out all the problems you have with her play yesterday and you ignored them because she was on your highest tier of townreads, which you couldn't actually justify when prodded to do so

i'm slightly worried that both you and bernie jumped on her today and it makes me wonder if she's either the designated mislynch or the designated bus, although your pair of votes does seem to be indicative that the two of you (bernie and irrelephant) are probably not partners

there's almost for sure at least one scum on the wagon, and i doubt all three of them are on it

i really have no way of pinning down whether it's one or two at this time

Not Voting (1): Errantparabola
although if i actual look at this and color in the flips and me it's indicative that if there's two off it's one of {errant/nauci} and one of {keyser/ mom} (ignoring my own personal reads + the fact that i don't think two scum were sitting on bernie at eod)

if we factor in my reads it points to mom + errant i think given town!nauci and scum!mom

that's my most likely guess if there's two off.

this is brass's first mini theme game so no mod precedent; there is precedent for !3 scum in mini themes but he said he made it as normal as possible which is indicative of standard 10:3; i wouldn't be surprised if there was an sk or something but the lack of a flip last night is indicative of there not being one

Note that VLA does not mean the person is allowed to not post at all, I simply move their prod time to 3 days rather than 2.
I've only made one good post, and don't you dare accuse me of doing it again.

So my head says scum are Not_Mafia, Mom, and the worst, but my heart says it's Gustavo, Nauci, and mathdino. These are not team speculations idk about associatives atm these are just who I think is scummy depending on what I listen to

Probably shouldn't listen to my gut though
