Sure whatever I'll claim. Maybe it'll spur some discussion.
My Neighborhood has the ability to role block the group ability of another Neighborhood. We vote on a player, and then that player's Neighborhood is blocked. We picked Davesaz both nights, though tbh I'm not really sure the deeper motivations because I replace in more or less as night ended.
At this time I will not be revealing who the other members of my Neighborhood are, since I think our ability is good if Neighborhoods start whittling away and town-oriented group PRs flip over to scum. I don't want them to be potential targets.Reformed boy - just trying my best

Anyway, there you go, dave.
@Panth: Could you please answer why dave? Who in your hood suggested dave first? Where there any other candidates on the table to choose from?

More anti-town than making someone voteless?

Confidence in reads changes and is influenced by what my team says and other people post? There’s really no scum benefit to me adjusting my reads to fit the game state.In post 3819, nomnomnom wrote:

Ankamius and MariaR are almost there for me I think.
That leaves DEB, FL, kuribo, Espresso, Firebringer, nom
I don't want to lynch FL today.
But apart from that I don't have super strong feelings personally.
You're playing according to where others want to lynch and trying to get by.

If it's Maria I would not be surprised since she pretty much always scumreads me for stupid reasons. It's so NAI for her that I stopped paying attention to it.In post 3854, Almost50 wrote:Anyway, there you go, dave.
@Panth: Could you please answer why dave? Who in your hood suggested dave first? Where there any other candidates on the table to choose from?
If someone in that hood is scum with the other person in my hood then there you go. A perfectly reasonable looking action given her bias against me, that's probably among the most anti-town actions the game has.A community that stifles dissent does not deserve the title of community- kuribo

Maria said she was neighbors with pantha already, then we have the other outed hoods and flips.In post 3855, kuribo wrote:In post 3853, Almost50 wrote:

Where do you get that from
A50+chenn+Ank is a hood
FL+EP+Elements (deceased) is another
nom+FB+Volpe (deceased) is a third
dave+DV+kuribo is the fourth (not sure about you being there, so THAT maybe where I went wrong. Is it?)
Maria+pantha+?? is a hood
gooey+DEB+?? is the last hood
No 2 flipped player shared the same hood, so the last 2 hoods should have had one flipped player each (namely Creature/Farkan)
Now if you are not with the Cops, then place yourself in the correct hood and put Creature/Farkan in the Cops in your stead (You don't have to say it aloud. I don't need to know which hood YOU are in because I hard TR you anyway).

That's hilarious because it actually was maria
Vex and I were both scumreading you day 1 so we said fuck it, we'll vote Dave
Pant replaced in during N2, and the general consensus was that he hadn't read the game so we figured repeating the N1 action was as good as anything having not seen any negative outcome. And with Maria and I both scum reading you anyway.- kuribo

I'm hard townreading pant and Maria in part because our LMS ability would be great for scum and neither of them have made any moves to claim it for themselves. It's also higher utility for town. I also townread Vex based on the earnestness of his hood posts, and Maria as well to an extent.- kuribo

What ability do you think dave was referring to? Hint: It's an ability that returns a result, so they can tell id their action had gone through or failed.In post 3865, Flavor Leaf wrote:

My bad then. So the Investigative Hood has only dave/DV alive in it. I would strongly lean DV is the Scum of the two, and it makes even more sense now that he is trying to lynch you. Your hood has Scum in it, and DV is also Scum, and they're setting up "pairs" so they can sweep the game with the last-man-standing abilities.In post 3866, kuribo wrote:I'm grouped with pant and Maria
WAIT A MINUTE! Is one of them like.. skipping a day (double night) kind of thing?? (A50 moon!lLogic trademark. All rights reserved)
But we have to take into account who was NK'd (because that was pure Scum doing) over who was lynched (because that had to have Town's support to go through)
Sp, FB/nom has 1 scum and whichever of dave/DV & DEB/gooey had Farkan as their third also has 1 scum in that pair.This does not mean I'm clearing the other pairthough. I'm just saying I'd be more confident one scum is in the hood Farkan was in.
