Hmm, I'm both relieved that it's not a ton more pages since I popped in yesterday, and hard to get motivated to read what happened between page 105 and now.
Any specific requests for me that I have missed? Things I should take a close look at?

In a lot of ways I do feel like A50 is an active linesman. And Espresso a less active linesman.
I forgot to ask what linesman means in this post.
Like soccer referees that are on the sidelines
So taking this up again, you think they are staying out of the action but you think they're town despite that?

There will be a point where hood knowledge comes out and we connect the dots, so even this isn't a foolproof strategy.

I do want to hear GIF thoughts before we lynch (and I personally would very much enjoy keeping this game at a chill slower tempo pace for a bit to see which of EP/volxen/DEB do come out to play)

I think given volxen/nomnom interactions they probably aren't partners

By the way I've seen personally town!volxen lurking out and coming to react to weird things in Open 740 I think. The second run of the Red Flag setup hosted by NSG. I think he was wagoned in a similar way there too so not convinced that this is scum!volxen opposed to keep'ing my read on nomnom.

Anyway I already promised to sheep Ank.

If nomnom/FL is town I would say volxen/DeasVail/DEB/Espresso probably has scum on it but...arguments above etc

In post 2799, Almost50 wrote:Volxen is SCUM: According to skitter; Scum!Volxen pops in and makes tangentially related posts that really have very little to do with the meat of the game. He doesn't really know how to keep up or engage in real time or like follow-through with anything. Town!him doesn't do that, and he's doing just that in this game.
This makes me believe that your slot is town. Even though Skitter's conclusion is incorrect, I can see why she would arrive at that conclusion based on Good Jams Mafia, where she played against scum!me. She is correct in that I struggled with keeping up and engaging in real time in that game. What her read isn't taking into account is that that has also been in the case in multiple town games where I got mislynched for similar reasons. But that isn't something that I would expect Skitter to know as she hasn't been in any on my town games where I got mislynched. Her experience with me has been primarily Good Jams Mafia (where I was scum) and 911: What's Your Emergency? (where I was town), and based on that I can see this as being a thought process that town!Skitter would have.

OK, I am now exclusively a mailman between skitter and some of you (I will be back in 48 hrs max).

skitter said to tell you she was referring to skygazer's pokemon game where she was scum with you, and you posted less than a handful of posts (she's unsure if she was your scum p or you hydra p)

She also asks why is it that you only talk about how people are reading you and nothing else? She wants a readlist from you for starters.

I don't think know is the time for me to rage on about a nomnom scumread, particularly given that I also scumread Ank and am weighing up the possibility of Volxen being scum.

I want to see what Volxen does now that they have votes.
