Open 756: Hope Plus One (Day 5)

[Shoshin]

I'm at L-2 as well, with Egix voting me I'll be put to L-1. I'm already dead.

[popsofctown]

I don't think it's correct play for Egix to bus you here though. We'd probably lynch him anyways.

[Shoshin]

Pops, why not vote Egix over me today?

[Shoshin]

Like, from your perspective, regardless of my alignment, Egix is always scum here. What am I missing?

[Shoshin]

I don't think it's correct play for Egix to bus you here though. We'd probably lynch him anyways.

This sounds like a reason for you vote Egix over me.

[popsofctown]

I replaced in knowing I hate your slot and being excited to lynch it, didn't find out more about this egix guy until I iso'ed him just now. He's the second scummiest slot in the game though. Largely by PoE.
It makes me paranoid how difficult you seem to be to lynch though.
I'm pretty happy with growlithe and shosho being the leading wagons for today, it's miles better quality lynching than D1.

[Shoshin]

Why you hate me?

[popsofctown]

I'm paranoid we lynch Egix, he flips scum, and you tank stock to end game off the cred.

If we don't massclaim and we still have a cop maybe I should be less worried about that. Bussing is really painful with these PRs. To some extent I'm waiting to sheep Iconeum and/or a verdict on massclaim.

I can UNVOTE: if you like although I really don't think you're going to get lolhammered like you think you will.

[popsofctown]

I don't hate you I'd actually whitelist you as a player.

[Shoshin]

Pops, I'm unable to follow your thought process at all. Who are you townreading?

[Shoshin]

I'm fearful of lolhammers because it's happened to me before. I once got lynched 3 pages into D1.

[Shoshin]

I'm paranoid we lynch Egix, he flips scum, and you tank stock to end game off the cred.

I have a proposal, then: Lynch me at LYLO.

I'll accept my own lynching if we get to LYLO. My goal is to avoid getting there altogether.

[Shoshin]

I'm 99% certain that scum won't let me live to LYLO unless somehow Egix/Titus are town, in which case town has already lost this game.

[popsofctown]

TR:
Buki >> Eyes >> Creature . Anything lower than creature is negligible distance from null

[Shoshin]

You have the same reads as me. In precisely that order.

[Shoshin]

If you vote Egix, I add you to the list after Creature.

[popsofctown]

I mean I can't count on you to selfvote in LyLo.

[popsofctown]

If you vote Egix, I add you to the list after Creature.

That's not good mafia

[Shoshin]

If you're town, it is.

[Shoshin]

Look, if you think both me & Egix are scum, at least I'm playing pro-town from your perspective whereas he isn't. That's enough reason to vote him over me today.

[Shoshin]

Can you clarify again why you scumread me, Pops? Buki already said that his reasons for scumreading me were incorrect, as they were based in faulty meta.

[Creature]

It makes me paranoid how difficult you seem to be to lynch though.

I'm the resistance.

There are also the lurkers and Egix.

[Egix96]

I don't think it's correct play for Egix to bus you here though. We'd probably lynch him anyways.

I really don't get how anyone could possibly think that I'm scum with Shosh here.

UNVOTE:

VOTE: Shoshin

Back to L-2 I believe. All I ask is that you guys don't lynch me while I'm asleep. Gnight

[Shoshin]

I'd like to remind everyone that I was almost lynched on D2. I was at L-1 with two hours until deadline, with Emperor expressing intent to hammer while waiting for my claim. The reason I survived is because townies switched their votes from me to Worm. Townies, not scum. GIF, and then Buki.

[popsofctown]

I'm not huge on meta. I consider his case on you regarding enthusiasm and effort to apply to a player in a vacuum pretty well.

I'm a big believer that to some extent future good behavior can't obviate past bad behavior in mafia. And much of your early posting was really bad.
