A50's reads list isn't a reads list and makes me wonder what he's doing.

at some point someone suggested the following strategy for fruit vendors: have each person claim "received fruit/did not receive fruit" in order (either popcorn or alphabetical or in player order or whatever else we want to do). this is much, much better than just having people who received fruit claim.

I don't really feel like there's any strong evidence that Inferno and dramonic are scum together. I read through the parts of Inferno's iso from yesterday regarding dramonic and along with how voting went I just don't think that was bussing?

Taly, you wrote in that "Chick could also be apart of the low-content group, but there's reason to suggest she's town over the others." could you clarify what you mean by there being reason to suggest that?

the worst, in , you write "I can't really see a reason {dram, profii, inferno} doesn't contain 3 scum." will that change if either profii or Inferno flip town?

MagnaofIllusion's "Skygazer is secretly an alt" theorizing in is really weird to me. I feel like that sort of analysis isn't usually very useful.

re: , the worst vigging me would be highly unproductive.

I really can't agree with Andrius' "If you shoot someone unacceptable we'll lynch you" in . while it's generally a good idea for a vigilante to give a shit about what the town wants, it seems like being a populist and just shooting the most scumread player every night is a good way for an SK to skate by.

Taly's analysis in of HeWhoSwims is really good

profii's feels like it can't come from scum. the "these are reasons why it would be good to lynch me" arguments feel like they'd be impossible from scum in this position.

3) He's not explaining his stances, and he hasn't read up either.
1 and 2 seem pretty par for A50's course tbh, as for 3 I'm not sure how to feel about that.

Because I was confused about what slot you were in.

I have a hard time keeping up with replacements.

And I am aware I could probably read the OP, but, let's be honest, I won't.

Hi.
Gonna skim through D2 and bring some new thoughts to the table tonight.
Duck just wanting to shoot anyone makes me paranoid about him owning a gun.
Please don’t shoot me, TW. Can I visit you tonight instead?

1) Andrius
is an invest role and claims 100% that
Chick
is town, it's not optimal for me to pry into the validity of that right now.
2)
I genuinely think it's towny for
Chick
to claim her venge, at least in the way she did it, alongside the idea that I don't think
Chick
is very likely to be scum with
Dram
.

I think those are two moderate-to-strong reasons there.

Because I don't see a straightforward reason to think
xyzzy's
scum and based off my recent analysis' that
MOST
people haven't actually read judging off their posts, I'm more inclined to think he's town out of the 5 people I've scumread this dayphase.

People have also noted that
profii
could be town and while I disagree on that, nobody's really discussing much on
profii
either way, aside from when I'm speaking to him directly.

So I'm taking initiative to further improve my own perception in this game, as well as taking a pushier approach right now because I see a lack of cohesion in the game narrative that I don't think people are realizing.
