oh well

Welcome, tictac!

Spoiler: january is

town

[RadiantCowbells]

welp i'm bad. 1/2.

i'm actually kinda surprised that january teacher weren't paired

[RadiantCowbells]

like ddl's top townread in the early game on january made no sense to me and i really thought it was masons

[tictac]

my first proper nightkill!

sry for tunnel Jam.

[tictac]

my pt is fine to release as is when game ends.

[Plotinus]

great

[tictac]

ok, so one question that's been niggling at me is why jamelia was nk'd before suspicious.

after they claimed obvs they would be kills 1 and 2, but why did it happen in that order?

it seems jamelia was sr'ing january and ddl's slot, while townreading tictac
suspicious was scumreading january and zenith

to me, this gives some more weight t scum!january and scum!ddl, and more weight to town!tictac

i'd be kinda surprised if jamelia died first while townreading scum!tictac

didn't wanna say so while alive, but I probs would have killed Jam first if I was scum.
Jam and susp had pretty much the same reads, and it's better to have a townie who is loud and wrong than one who is quiet and wrong.
here, it was probs cause Zen thought a susp-kill would point to him too much.

Skitter was acting weird yesterday. Scum lean on skitter right now.

@january I'm not a fan of quickhammers. If I hadn't unvoted then your vote would have been the hammer. I've stated my thoughts on the issue earlier in this thread. It's common courtesy to state intent to hammer, wait for response, then either hammer or not hammer.

u probs know this, but in case ya don't..
voting at all is risking a quickhammer in lylo, if ya town, so every vote has the intent of 'i definitely want this person lunched'.
I've seen townies unvoting in lylo, but it's not a thing that actually makes a whole lot of sense, except in very special circumstances.

[tictac]

Being dead and not able to say stuff is actually kinda frustrating rn.

[tictac]

VOTE: skitter

good hustle waiting until skit had her vla to pull this.

[tictac]

u didn't announce the L-1 btw, lol.

[tictac]

give time for final words than have someone else come along and quickhammer, then have to rely on twilight to maybe get final words or else miss out. Maybe you get some decent info from it and maybe not

the game end when ya lynch town in lylo
some serious pow-slippage here.

[RadiantCowbells]

Decent info tho

[GeorgeBailey]

Zeniths seems a lot more aggressive and different now that it's LyLo. Is this AI?

[tictac]

i mean LYLO plays a lot differently than other days, so not necessarily.
I'd say a shift to a more aggressive play is more town-indic generally.
this was zen on day 3 tho:

zen whats ur reads

I don't have any town reads right now.
Skitter scares me in a sort of sneaky way, tictac scares me in an agenda pushing way, jan scares me in a sort of staying mostly off my radar way, and you scare me in a more friendly kind of way.

All I see is wifom. I could see all actions as coming from town or scum and I don't particularly enjoy this feeling.

and he did have opinions on things on days 1 and 2, so this kinda non-committalness in LYLO is scum-indic imo.

I think zen played smart when he chose to conftown jan. That kinda choice to discard unlikely mislynch-possibilities can look very town.
he has some ground to cover to recover from taking things easy on day 3, but looks like he is rising to the occasion and taking things a bit more seriously now that he has to carry.

thinking back to my own scumplay, i also became more agressive when my partner flipped, so looking for an agressive shift after a scumflip might be a general scumtell?

[tictac]

Based on all the above, it seems like I can choose to hope skitter is town, or fear that she's scum. If that's the case, the former sounds preferable.

Yea no thanks.. Sorry if this loses us the game, but after considering everything, I think I'll pass on being fed dull razor blades.

[tictac]

At this point, I almost want to lynch the slot to save the replacement from having to play catch up in lylo.

With a small townlean on tictac i leaned more towards ddl being scum.

i think the real reason for zen vote/unvote on day 3 was being considerate toward a potential replacer, knowing that they would replace into a very tough spot.
zen may be scum, but he is a very decent chap also.

[tictac]

I'm not sure why you aren't voting me back yet.

I'm actually kinda unsure if this is fake or not?

[tictac]

A+ for creativity if it's fake.

[tictac]

3 days, 11 hours, 18 minutes.
zzz

cmon jan, u can do it.

[RadiantCowbells]

It's a really tough situation when you're in lylo having the fact that you left a bunch of mislynches held against you when you're known as a good player

[tictac]

vork the only mislynch skitt pushed for tho, and even that super understandable cause vork deviated from standard townmeta significantly.
(tho i do think that tvt started from skitt misunderstanding a vork-post on day 1)
bailey was a cfd so I don't think jan holds that against skitt, she even liked my post where I scumread zen for

not

mislunching bailey.

i'm hoping jan chooses to just poe-read skitt rather than go into BoP territory. Zen is scummy enough, especially day 3.
i dunno how much re-reading jan is doing tho. she's more used to liveplay, so it might not occur to her to go back and re-eval?

[tictac]

but yea. I don't think there's a huge amount skitt can do to affect how this turns out rn.

[tictac]

i think she's just doing her level best to not feed anybody any razors rn.

[RadiantCowbells]

Scum win gj scum
