Thanks for being willing to work with me by the way, Blake. I appreciate it.

I'm headed out for an hour or two but I'll be back in a bit-if anyone wants to jam/talk about other slots let me know.

I'm trying not to focus on egospray as much this day phase, but I would like to point out how they have disappeared this day phase as soon as them being lynched is no longer being actively talked about. Maybe I'm reading into it too much, and they just got busy, but it seems to correlate with my thoughts on their actions yesterday--namely, they started posting and being active only to avoid being lynched.
~Ircher
I completely agree with all of this.

I am getting pretty disengaged from this game :/

I want to talk about this later too when I have less I am procrastinating.

I the Tag Team Searcher's concern about targeting low defense COs may come from Orange Star values (and for my purposes if Hawke is resolute, I may as well assume everything Tag Team Searcher's says is), but I feel this is a battlefield where a convincing majority of COs who have taken lots of highly visible action on the battlefield have travelled tiles and tiles without dripping a drop of Black oil. That means it's probably the case that most Black Hole COs are among the less mobile players.
It is better to take the easy shots instead of the hard shots. In a simpler battle, removing weak Black Hole COs early only procrastinates a harder quiz at the end, and I have heard COs theorize that can make it paradoxically unhelpful. In this battle there are may strange and unique CO Powers, so even a weak Black Hole CO may be able to harm us for each day they left alive, like a halfdamaged piperunner unit.
I still dislike Foxy's opening moves. Less distressing than Flavortown when intel is considered but after the agony with Hawke day 1 I'm happy to turn my missiles towards anything

I can't read the above post on mobile without my eyes hurting since the black bar only comes up halfway on the words. Are you able to change your formatting? Otherwise I might have to skip them unless I happen to be on PC. Sorry.
In post 3124, Black Hole Defection wrote:I can only think of one false positive I've gotten based off of emotion, and that came from a replacement into a slot I had been scumreading for weeks anyway.
aww nice reference.

So I'm still picking up on the gist of things. From what I've read so far, I personally think the M&K public night action speculation is more towny than not. Scum have a better place to be speculating than the game thread, and this early on they probably risk revealing too much about their own actions if they spend too much time focusing on teasing apart complicated night actions.

Does anyone have anything they want me/us to focus on coming in?

I have read about a page. I think Disaster Artists is town, and Equitable Androids very lightly lean town.

I do not intend to read much of the game pre-sub, Key might do otherwise.

What makes you distrust it? In a game like this, a robbing mechanic sounds pretty likely. Plus, is anyone keeping track of purchases?

I don't have VCA, really. I think that yesterday wasn't very competitive and that Smol was the only wagon which really seemed to take off. So, votewise I think scum were probably free to do whatever they felt they would do as town. I don't have anything that would lead me to believe that X position on the wagon contains X number of scum or anything.

To clarify; when I say see I didn't mean, like, I agree with your VCA proposal, but I think it's reasonable that it could come from town.

I'm interested to hear what you have for NKA if Cappy calling me scum once isn't all there is. I scrolled through their ISO and I'm pretty sure they didn't mention their slot outside that?

Hmmm. I have to say that when Feminist Bloc posts, i actually like it. I kinda want to vote the searchers or blakeXyang, but i don't see any of the wagons gaining any traction for reasons unknown to me. I dislike the equitable androids wagon a lot.

I wouldn't mind compromising on Foxy today if i assume all of the above as town. Their ISO isn't exactly fantastic and it would fit the gamestate.

Isn't he supposed to lose the points he earned if he succumbs to the "risk"?
His analysis reeks, he assumes the default Black Hole Army CO Power that kills full Tag Teams got downgraded to only killing one CO due to a power we don't know about, and someone else killed Tag Team Spiffybringer.
The same deaths can be explained by public data if any CO bought and used the Kill1CO Power from Hachi's shop yesterday, and the default Black Hole Army CO Power was aimed at Tag Team Spiffybringer or his Bodyguard CO Power target.
The leap past the best public data explanation suggests private data.
I disagree with CO Farkran about similar topics, so it may just be his foolishness, but analysis that's nothing like my own uninformed reconstructions def shouldn't earn him anything. My impressions were similar to CO John Cena's, that something like a suicide must have occurred (since CO Silver Bullet had apparently used up his CO Power and CO Hectic had not).
