Also, this is WAY WAY worse when you realize that Vecna town wasn't in danger of dying. Vecna town was in danger of being confirmed to be town. Only Vecna scum gets killed when run up while the whole mastina gladiate bit is around, unless Vecna town believes himself to be so incredibly useful to the town that scum will out themselves for a quickhammer there.
A hint: Scum outing themselves to quickhammer on D1 is always positive town utility.
Is there more to the push than lynch all lurkers, because I'd rather not policy lynch a slot based on the player in it being an unreadable sack of lurktasticness that is already getting replaced?
Cause, um.... I don't see how rm is especially likely to be scum over town. And more to the point, I don't see how conftown "random player in rm's slot" does us any more good than conftown "player who has actively been scummy".
Agreed. His ISO is full of shitposting to the exclusion of posting content.
Does that in anyway invalidate:
A. This is a policy lynch.
B. If we policy lynch the slot, it will continue to be around and thus not really policy lynched at all.
C. He is currently being replaced.
Further, do you have any evidence to suggest rm shitposting into a replacement is more likely to indicate scum than town?
Do you have such a massive preponderance of townreads that you have no other avenues of inquiry?
Do I ever give up on the pretentious ass persona I've adopted for this post?

I suppose this should be might.
The point stands. Mastina's role, while incredibly protown, vastly reduces the effectiveness of policy lynches, because we're not weeding the chaff out of town. We're making their lack of contribution even more detrimental.
In case it is unclear, at this point the only policy lynch that I will humor is a BoP lynch.
And this is the point in the game where we convince RC to sub into the game, conftown him, and then park a protective on him and listen to what he tells us.
To be clear, this is a hydra, so the appeal of Randomidget is that it is a slot that is an overlapping scumread between me and Left Head. We only have two overlapping scum reads atm (Titus, Randomidget). Titus was pretty far outside her town meta but I think there was some real life stuff going on there, so the read there has some noise. Conversely, the read on Random as scum is one of my strongest reads in this game period.
Left Head was willing to sheep me on NSG being scum a few days ago but after Mastina's argument about Nancy I might need to do a deeper meta dive of how she plays town to shore up that scumread.
We do not have a preponderance of overlapping townreads. The current overlapping townreads are: Wheme, Sky, and jjh. We each have a few more outside of those.
It's inconvenient that both of our overlapping scumreads are being replaced, but actually scum-replaces outs are wildly common on this site so I don't really have a problem with pushing random up and getting mastina to gladiate or something. This isn't exactly LAL; random was more active lurking, which I tend to view as much scummier than just flaking out. I wasn't calling it a policy lynch, I'm just lynching the most obvious scum in the game, who in this case happens to be a lurker scum.
I don't believe rm is particularly more likely to shitpost and troll to the exclusion of playing as town or scum, and thus have him marked as null currently. Should I decide I don't have somewhere I'd rather push, you are particularly town and worthy of sheepage, or rm slot is more likely scum than town I will return to your suggestion.
how about you actually read d1 instead of just my iso if youre gonna cherrypick some nonsense to suit whatever aganda youre pusbing here jingle?
first of all, i was at risk of dying, and was at like l2 or whatever. I wouldve been the lynch for certain if i hadnt done what i did. anyone that has ever played mafia would know how that situation wouldve played out if i continue doing what i did.
And as ive stated before, I indeed did not feel like doing readslist and going through a shitton of effort to rainbow code them when the entire game was dead and on lazymode, and like two people had provided reads. you can throw any fancy terminology at it to frame it anyway you like, but its bullcrap and only going to grab the attention of people like invisibility.
Here's one of the several recent quick summaries of existing claims to get started:

I can't remember at the moment what else we've covered claim wise.
Ari, I know you know the real identity of both heads of our hydra, so I appreciate you keeping that on the D/L even though you probably replaced into a scum slot
