that sentiment implicates nosferatu, dunn and r2r if going off of like, strictly numbers. of them i like nosferatu the most bc of that dunn/blair thing. i think r2r isn't look the best but i vibed with some of their points regarding bm thus the unvote. i don't think it's foolproof like they are town 100% of the time but i can follow their logic without having to twist and reach for it so i don't wanna vote them rn

Sleep schedule's messed up and haven't had the chance to check in. I'll be around with something when I get up (around 10-12 hours from now)

Been quite torn between Blair and Dunn this whole day phase

Idk I thought Dunnstral was trying to suggest that you should be better at reading him and that you were being unfair in a scummy way.

1. I proposed a hypothesis ("Scum would probably disappear during the counterclaim discussion and resulting scun-launch yesterday").

2. I collected data ("I reread and Dunnstral stopped posting then and didn't post again until the next phase").

3. I drew a conclusion ("Dunnstral could be scum").

At which point in my internal logic did I stop being genuine? Why do you think so?

Dunn:

-As I've pointed out in day 1, has not played in a way that has been beneficial to town, and I think still lacks anything of real substance in his iso
-Is now doing what I perceive to be an OMGUS push on Blair. If he's got a more substantial case, I haven't seen it

Blair:

-Had a push on me day 1 that felt really scummy (a FoS with no reasoning or case to go along with it) that other people promptly just jumped on, and then she didn't provide any case or reasoning until everyone else already had
-Retracted vote and hammer, and was advocating for a counter wagon instead on midway, who she hadn't shown any suspicion or taken much notice towards since almost 10 pages before that
-Is now trying to push a case against myself and Dunn, two fairly popular day 1 targets

(if you want elaboration on any of these points, let me know, I'm just trying to summarize to avoid a big wall)

My vote is on Blair because I think the more calculated feeling behavior sets off alarm bells for me moreso than the anti-town behavior

just checking in to say i have nothing really new to say in response to the nothing really new that's been said

since nobody's joining blair in her dunn wagon and there are more votes on her i think she has the responsiblilty to pick a different wagon

but maybe she can stubbornly convince me that i'm 100 wrong and i need to join her

We've been over this one already. Again, if you really believe (you don't) that I didn't have reasoning and was waiting to plagiarize someone else's, you need to reexamine whether or not you are approaching me in good faith.
-Retracted vote and hammer, and was advocating for a counter wagon instead on midway, who she hadn't shown any suspicion or taken much notice towards since almost 10 pages before that
Weve been over this, too. I had very clear progression here, and it wasn't at all constructed as a scummy "Let me engineer a way to get myself out of a bus" would be.

If you think it was, feel free to explain how. Until then, this point is just a bad-faith "correlation = causation" argument.
-Is now trying to push a case against myself and Dunn, two fairly popular day 1 targets
Here's a crazy idea: Maybe I'm not pushing those reads because they were "popular" yesterday - maybe I'm pushing these reads because they were
my reads yesterday
.

Again, bad-faith "correlation = causation" argument.

If you're town, you aren't engaging me in good faith at all - and it's demonstrably not just a laziness thing, because several of these have already been addressed and you haven't adjusted your arguments to account for that at all.

OK, I'll clarify point 1 real quick because I didn't state my implication clearly enough. I'm not trying to say that you were presenting suspicion without a case because you didn't have any reasoning at the time and were trying to plagiarize off other people. Moreso that you cast the suspicion to leave bait there to see who would take it, and see if a wagon might be able to catch on, then not need to take responsibility for starting the wagon, because after all, you weren't the first vote or were the one who the case yourself.

Points 2 and 3 are trickier because I think you're a smart player and aren't going to outright slip, and that you'd be able to fabricate a realistic looking progression for yourself as scum, which is why I'm looking more at the actions and seeing whether they're plausible to come from scum, and the actions themselves are a convenient position for scum to be in.

I'd say mafi is a bit at the moment (though I've been reading him as town), and Nosferatu

I didn't unvote, my vote is still on Blair, and I feel that if I were scum I'd have given up this push a long time ago after the first 2 or 3 times because it hasn't been gaining any traction from people, but I'm continuing because it's helping me get a better feel of my read.
