Like, everyone had to clap to confirm their role, right?

Why are so many people acting like they have no clue what the

Voting is my god-given constitutional right. Making myself heard in the ballot box and useless strategy talk are two different things. One is useful, one is not. I am with Starbuck on this.

Do you guys just not 'get' that there's no standard voting in this game? How are we supposed to rvs?
I think the conversation should have, especially given the mechanics, evolved a bit more organically in any case. Can't change it now, but it should have been more of a "how do we think we should do this?" and roll from there to see what ideas came about. Not really to see if there were any other ideas, but to see who might be scummy given whatever was put on the table.

In all actuality, beeboy took that away. And for the record, I'm not stating he's scummy for it but he took away multiple opportunities for conversations to evolve and for folks to learn about others.
This sounds like it comes from town

This seems like a veiled attack on beeboy. Why not just come out and say it?
shh the words of scum don't effect the game that much.
But she's coming for us :(

I have 0 reads because I haven't played on MS in years. It's my first game back in like 4 years (I think?). I typically just write what I'm thinking in the moment and roll with it. You and others knew who I was talking about, so obviously it didn't need to be explained.

However, your question here makes me feel like you're trying to force something where there isn't anything. I just don't think you know me and that's cool. Unfortunately, though, I'm not quite sure if that's you coming at me as Town or scum trying to build false suspicion. So maybe I do have my first read.
I'm not trying to force something I'm trying to understand why you made that post the way you did. This reaction is not great because you're getting all defensive over something that wasn't even aggressive in the first place. You're right I don't know you so why not just explain that instead of trying to shade me.

I don’t like you thus far.
This reaction also sucks for obvious reasons.

If you think unwnd is poor scum, then shouldn't you have been happy cuz you caught scum. I agree that the outburst was pretty weird.

Again, I just think scum should play better then that as that play overall is garbage.
If they are Town, they need to step it up and not be Anti-Town.

But that play comes from Scum way more then it comes from Town.
In the slight chance they are Town I hope they explain themselves and provide more Point Posts (Cases, Reasoning, Etc) Rather then shade going forward.

I think beeboy and Starbuck could both be town. The disagreement just may be in the way they play the game and not because one's actions were scum motivated.

Pink Ball

I feel as if they might be a mislynch target normally and I think they are having a feud with ABR I’m not entirely sure on that. I trust their posts enough to save them for today to make sure someone scummy gets lynched over Pink Ball.



Reya

Usually my plan was just to choose Pink Ball but assuming Pink Ball is already chosen then I’d choose Reya.
They have shown some Townie posts and good contribution. While other players haven’t been really doing that.


The reason I won’t choose you and Dunn is because you guys are both playing pretty strong and you are obvious Town targets to pick to keep.
Usually if scum can’t pick their buddy they would pick you or Dunn because your the “easy route”
And they get a higher chance for a mislynch.

Why not? If you want them to be in the final pool of 2 scumreads then you should be pushing.
In post 192, TrueSoulEnergy wrote:Plus I don’t want to push them RN period because I want more actual point posts out of them.
Pushing them would encourage them to post and defend themselves to your push.

You're point is written in a way that suggests it's only possible they are both town not that you think they are town, which I find interesting. You're not giving actual reads to my understanding. Do you think they are town or do you just think the interaction has potential to be TvT? Do you think the interaction could involve scum too?
