The question is: If we were pushing a scum partner of Bingle, why did not Bingle intervene to assist his p and redirect the pressure elsewhere. Bingle is pretty good at directing the flow when he is scum.

I'm still working on the assumption that SS/Lilith is S/T in some fashion and that SS's lynch gives me more information. I prefer a Maria lynch to a Lilith one. I think the gamestate stalling is adequately explained by a small scumteam as opposed to a lack of scum desire to shift anything.

I don't think that reads post is something outside of scum SS's capabilities. The lack of hard stances makes it unlikely to be damning if he flips scum and he wasn't really a defacto lynch when he made it. I also don't think that being disengaged from the game is a towntell here from SS. I think it's genuine, sure, but I don't see why scum him is any less likely to be disengaged than town him.

It should be pretty obvious that all of Menalque, Skitter30, and Almost50 are town. I'm not as certain on Datisi because it's the type of meta read that I suspect easily works when he is town, but might not necessarily still be the case when he is scum. However, I think his content overall has been fine and I'm not seeing much of a reason to give in to that paranoia without other reasons to suspect him.

I mentioned before that PenguinPower's push on me makes more sense from a town perspective than a scum perspective. This is still the case mainly because I don't suspect he is the type of player that would show teeth like that as scum and have ultimately nothing come of it.

The most obvious town after this would normally be Bingle, but I'm actually a lot less certain about his alignment mainly because of something specific he mentioned a bit earlier. I will dig out quotes sometime later to be sure that I'm remembering correctly.

The rest are all slots I simply am fine just running through. I don't expect there are scum outside this list, and this town is strong enough that I strongly suspect that even if there is, the scumteam would have to do some impressive gymnastics to prevent them from being found out as scum get flipped.

I still think Lilith2013 is the slot that is the most likely to flip scum of the remainder, to be clear.

what does this mean?
I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”

It means I think I can recognize you when you're town pretty easily still (refer to the recent hydra game), but I'm less certain I'll properly scumread you when you're scum.

Thread is dead.

VOTE: Maria

We need a flip. If that flip is me, so be it. I think any of Maria/SS/Lilith provides more concrete stances to analyse though.

At this point Blake, S_S, and (mostly) bingle are all vanities. If you’re on one you should pick a proper wagon or try to turn the person you’re on into a real wagon if you have a lot of conviction that they’re scum. S_S needs to make an actual vote

I mean if I were to vote right now it would probably be on Bingle. I don't really agree that voting a vanity is bad here, nor that voting is imperative. I do think we can make progress without dueling wagons, though I wouldn't be opposed to voting I don't think.

@maria I kind of feel like you’re saying that I would never be justified in scumreading you lol

Like if I said I toneread you as scum, you’d say your tone depends on your mood and that that’s not legit or reliable. If I track a progression for you that I think often comes from scum (acting okay with being lynched but then trying to avoid it p strongly through actions) then again it’s because of your mood. I imagine that if you hard defended scum you’d say it was a bad reason to scumread you because you’d be more subtle, and if I called you out for bussing you’d say it would look more convincing. So like I’m happy to dialogue about why you think X is scum but you just saying you’re not scum here because your progression is adequately explained by mood isn’t convincing to me

Oh right, the two VCs: I was also wondering about the gamestate. So if S_S is town then if lilith were scum it would make sense for scum to be trying to lynch him right? Only the pushers there were (skitt, A50, datisi) which is i think a solidly towny core + myself later on. So that theory doesn’t really hold up.

What about if they were TvT, what would scum be doing? Probably gently supporting both wagons if they were both townled onto town, given the strong likelihood of skitt being town. So maybe 2 scum on one and one on the other, meaning all the scum in (you, Blake, PP, bingle, fb) which frankly doesn’t seem awful as a solve
