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.

I mean, I legitimately DID take credit for starting that exact wagon:

You misunderstand. I wasn't mocking him for failing to explain his read.

I was praising him for sheeping my glorious read.

OK, this...is a fair point

Let me ask then, what
was
your reason for the FoS post? (178)

I don't mean why did you suspect me, I understand that, but why not a vote? Why not give further explanation at the time?

What's been bothering me is that it feels like town!blair would reference the post in question, call out what you thought was wrong with it, and accompany it with a vote. That's why it feels so out of place to me

I didn't vote for you because I wasn't finished pushing the Midway wagon as far as it would go.

I didn't give further explanation at the time because: A.) I thought the context made it clear what I was reacting to, and B.) I find a certain degree of ambiguity in early-game pushes (context: this was on page 8) helps make the "pressure" of the push feel more real (because a self-conscious target will often project a stronger case onto the blank slate, and react accordingly).

My sincerest apologies. The mafia roleblocker had a serious injury and he's gonna be working from home for the next few weeks. The good news? With hard and consistent work, I might be looking at a promotion soon!

Blair, Dunn was Ydrasse's counterwagon. Additionally, Ydrasse acted very strange around Dunny in the way that it spews him as town. She acted like she didn't want to vote Dunn and voted me instead, while leaving the option to vote him afterwards, since she knew she might have to since he's her counterwagon. That's scum going for towncred for not looking survivalistic, while letting themselves vote their counterwagon later for prior stated reasons. Do you disagree?

This sequence:
In post 378, Ydrasse wrote:honestly i didn't have any better leads than dunn right now, he's provided... nothing at all for me to townread. like yeah he claimed and stuff but i'm just sort of... /shrug at him.

i don't like the idea of an r2r wagon, there's been suspicion pointed at blair but i just don't get why and my tr is still there on her.
In post 379, Ydrasse wrote:tho going over things now i'd also launch mafia goon. idk why his vote is on blair right now because i don't see that as a Thing that is happening and it seems to be like. skirting the edges of the dunn wagon.
In post 380, Ydrasse wrote:but i tr everyone on the dunn wagon too.

Spoiler:

In post 381, Ydrasse wrote:VOTE: Mafia Goon

i'll be around either later 2nite or tomorrow if we haven't launched anyone yet.
If Ydrasse is scum with Dunny, she either stays on him for the bussing towncred, or tries to push something else and save her scum buddy. In what world does she abandon the wagon and push someone who isn't getting launched? None of the worlds is what I'm implying if that wasn't clear.

sorry guys i havent got much time at the moment to do proper thinking. did look at Ydrasse ISO and still happy it's Nosferatu. He was lumped in the "could be scum" block for a bit of distancing, but the rationale for him not being an active target was particularly contrived.

@Blair: As I was going to sleep last night, my thought was that it was
because
it didn't seem like you to shirk responsibility for a wagon, that it felt so off to me. That said, I like the answer you gave, and since that was the main thing that set off my radar I'm going to UNVOTE:

Noseferatu doesn't feel like a merciless busser.
In post 390, Nosferatu wrote:i am totally fine w this lynch as well

VOTE: ydrasse
This vote put Ydrasse on L-1. He disappears after the Ydrasse cop claim though, so a shame we don't get to see his reaction to that and whether he'd unvote or stay on. Next he comes online is after the inno counterclaim.

Ok, I should have more time on this game now.
@Nosferatu is BM scum just because of how he voted Ydrasse? I know he pressured you for some bad reasons early in the game, but is there anything more to it?
I'm leaning away from Dunnstral, but he probably has to go at some point in this game because he isn't doing much right now.
r2r and Blair I need to look at more...
Still not sure who to vote yet, but we have time.

before bm elaborates id love for u to tell me how this argument was contrived
In post 268, Ydrasse wrote:also ngl reading this game feels like i'm looking at a blob of "meh" with a few light trs (hi inno, hi blair) thrown in there which makes parsing through it all feel like my brain is turning into goo. i don't know what that means mafia is doing other than either blending in or just... not playing right now which means we're all kind of half-heartedly pointing fingers at each other hoping something sticks.

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.
dunno if it is or isnt but i just wanna hear u say it
