BooneyToonz UPick: Boon There, Done That [END]

[Venus and Mars]

Is there anything urgent I need to read in the explosion of posts last night? I just want to play with poisonous inactivated barbs. What could go wrong?

You could maybe help me keep my sanity? A part of me legit doesn’t want to be in this game anymore, which is a real shame considering I have such an awesome role.

And I definitely can make that happen if I want.

[Venus and Mars]

They all received them before bte claimed he was the one that sent them. You're missing the point.

Apparently I am, so please explain it to me like I’m 5.

They all claimed to get the item around the same time then the boon post happened = less likely to be a scum play initiated by bte

As opposed to

George softing preemptively, then vecna and Fonz claim around the boon post = more likely a scum play initiated by bte.

Again, I received the PM and had to

immediately

send the items and

I was banned from talking in the thread about them

. It was at the same time as the mod announcement, but I don't know if they were related or perhaps if it was just a timing thing since mod happened to be online. All I know is that this secret power was activated.

I 100% believe this. I am not at liberty to explain why but I don’t doubt this for a second.

[Venus and Mars]

The gamestate Nancy is actively creating is one where most discussion gets drowned out and Nancy gets lynched at eod

That is not coached scum or powerscum or most varieties of scum

Ok now I'm not pushing a lurker now I'm pushing scum

Why do you think Nom is scum?

[Venus and Mars]

RCEnigma, do you scumread BooneyToonzExpert solely for sending out the barbs, or do you have other reasons? Why do you think BooneyToonzExpert admits to sending the barbs out in the first place if he's scum?

-Cosmic

I know this wasn’t addressed to me but there were certain things he said in his most recent post, that I have extremely good reason to 100% believe, so I’m strongly leaning town on that slot.

[Venus and Mars]

I'm trying a different style of questionining here, so bear with me.

BooneyToonzExpert

, if you were looking for a loved one within {Michael Scott, sore feet, JJH}, and a mortal enemy within {GeorgeBailey, RCEnigma, Titus} - who would you pick from either category and why?

-Cosmic

I honestly have no clue what any of this means?

[Venus and Mars]

I’m kind of concerned now, I felt super confident about my selections, now I’m questioning them. :/ I don’t know know if I should leave them as is, or change them. I hate not being sure about that.

[Michael Scott]

"Coaching" was probably the wrong word to use, I felt you had discussed things about your role before writing some posts. I'm used to seeing a transparent thought process from scratch from you as town, so that was a very slight ping.

I'm not referring to any other sense of the word coaching. Besides, I knew you were going to shout at me for saying it. Like wifom aside, if I'm so strategic and planned as scum what would saying that even gain me?

Searching will be a pain and I wish I marked them somehow, but I put so less stock into them that I think it's useless right now - if y'all are still that interested I can track them down later.

[Titus]

@Titus, would you strongly object to being passed a barb? I clarified with Boon that me being passed it wasn't it being used on me, and me passing it isn't me using it either. I feel there's some town utility in testing your role, and you may (do not comment here on whether you can or not) be able to make it loyal, disloyal or desperate in a way that helps confirm alignment down the road. I don't want you not to receive anything, and I don't want Nancy to have to declare where she's sending.

I would love a barb. I would love all the barbs. This is an excellent idea.

[Conspire]

Oh no

Was just going to say I finally caught up last night, but now there’s more pages. Regardless, I think I have the main idea so I’ll give thoughts soon.

P.S: thanks to Titus for the warm welcome a few pages back!

My role in this game isn’t super complicated and I don’t know why you’d think I was being coached about it, when I literally had the exact same role in LNT.

[Michael Scott]

What's interesting is Sore Feet taking that "coaching" comment which I said was weak and that I was townreading VM pretty strongly, and then asked me why I wasn't voting VM.

That's a weird misrep and empty question.

The funnier thing is - I was voting BTE, I said let's wagon KA, but I never moved my vote there. Looking back I've sorta been inconsistent a lot in the game, so it's scummy for SF to pick up *this instance* which isn't even inconsistent.

I know it isn't, but I think there was some spec about other roles from you given your own role?

[Venus and Mars]

@Auro, I’m paranoid scum is trying to get me mislynched and I’m not sure who to believe in this game anymore and that’s really a bad thing considering my role because in order for my role to be as optimal to town as possible, I have to have confident town reads and I’m getting less and less confident on some of them and increasing confidence on others. I guess it really doesn’t gain you anything but I’m still slightly pinged. I still think you’re town though, just not as super confident as I was.

[Michael Scott]

That's understandable.
I do always say I'm waiting for the day I'm scum and you're town and I mislynch you, no?

[Michael Scott]

Also, I'm actually very sure scum would, and is trying to pocket you especially after you outed your role, remember how the gifts helped scum a LOT in Extravaganza?

VOTE: Sore Feet

I think you’re right. They just called me “power scum”, literally out of nowhere and no way does tw sr me in this game. Town!tw 100% tr me here.

[Michael Scott]

VOTE: Sore Feet
Baa baa

[Michael Scott]

Oh lol dude. No. You misinterpreted tw greatly.
He meant that AS SCUM you'd be powerscum, as in you would never be coached even if you rolled scum. He isn't saying you're powerscum this game

[Venus and Mars]

You would think so but it’s also conceivable that scum is frightened of me and thinks I’m an easy mislynch. I know that no one will be sr me later in this game, providing town doesn’t get a collective lobotomy or I get NK’d but I would really love it if someone could explain to me how I can be this far out of my scumrange with a hardclaimed tpr to boot and still be anyone’s sr, because I honestly don’t get it.

Oh. UNVOTE:

[Venus and Mars]

VOTE: RCE

[Michael Scott]

No, I think RCE is town and even otherwise, I like the dude enough not to want to lynch him.

I don't think anyone ever pushes you thinking you're an easy mislynch when a bunch of other powertown slots are calling you town, Nancy. The only reason a push would make sense is if people are trying to get townread off it after reacting tk your own reaction to it.

RCE's holding conviction in his read and he's actually engaging with other people to see why they believe you're town. It doesn't look like someone empty pushing you and doing nothing else.

[davesaz]

A whole string of posts in a row on the topic of coaching is really unnecessary. Once you've replied to one of them, the rest of the replies are just padding your and the game's post count.
Same pretty much goes for any subject.

I’ll see if he’s actually sincere about that. He usually isn’t this terrible at reading me. If he’s honestly sorting me and not just pretend sorting, he will make that super obvious.

Wrt to Sore Feet, Xtoxm’s AtE to me at the beginning of the game, sounded really townie. Do you think he would do that as scum?
