I keep changing my mind

Here's where I'm at:

My fidget townreads is 100% based on thread play and vibes. I think this is a strong read, I feel it in my gut.

The only thing I dislike about Fidg right now is her coming up with reasons why midway isn't so town after all, but then declaring he's off limits to her anyways

My midway townreads on reflection is something I've been forcing. It's not a strong feeling, it's something I "chose". I'm not sure it makes as much sense now

If you don't launch me, my two launches would be kerset and midway. I'm not sure what order

It looks like kerset and Fidg really want to make this me v. Midway. I think if I vote midway r2r will launch me and then game will go to lylo. I would be ok with that if I felt strong enough in a midway scumread to deffo say "he's who you should launch when i flip town". But I don't feel that confident atm

Fidget, why do you want me so badly? There's a big case you've written up but it looks more like different thoughts trying to convince yourself. Always believed a good belief just needs one reason (though I don't do that myself always lol). Can you boil it down to one reason (or are we beyond talking -- if your read is that strong don't bother I guess)

1) what makes post awkward? i don't really see how it feels out of place.

In post 159, Ydrasse wrote:that being said, nosferatu, why do you say that about dunn/blair? i didn't take anything away from their exchange personally.
these posts all rub me the wrong way, just something about askind other people these questions when there's not much out there looks IMO like busywork, it's the kind of thing i'd expect from scum figuring out how to settle in early phase

but this is minor stuff so we can work on it
I also don't agree that I have absolutely no posts suspecting Ydrasse, look above. It seems like an odd argument for you to think I don't tbh. I think my game has been more having wild changing reads all over the place and I understand why my Ydrasse wagon hopping looks bad. But that isn't the reason you put in big bold letters

I swear it's like everyone is scumreading the players who townreads them hardest

Something weird in that

If I were scum right now, I'd need two mislaunches. How would I get there

It's not enough to mislaunch today because today's launch would need to set me up for tomorrow

Would it be easiest to go to a strict 3p lylo or do the Gambit of keeping r2r alive and trust he'd launch the other player? In this case it's have to be 3p lylo right

So I guess the question is which two players I'd want alive in lylo, who would give me the best chance of some sort of deadlock

Puppy/fidget

Puppy/kerset

Puppy/midway

Fidget/kerset

Fidget/midway

Midway/kerset

It would have to be a lylo that excludes any two players who townreads each other. That would rule out... Lmao I'm not sure it rules any out. Until Fidg voted me I might have said puppy/Fidg. Puppy/midway?

I don't actually see the logic for a Mafi kill. At the end he had loose scumread on me and the Blair/Fidget slot. Someone (midway?) Said it was probably because mafi was widely townreads. But I'm not sure if I think that's true

In post 664, midwaybear wrote:I'm way too low, but I will also VOTE: Dunnstral
The main argument that he's town is that he was Ydrasse's counterwagon, but he hasn't done much townie stuff IMO.
This is the list that made Dunn's wagon the leading wagon. R2r was half sheeping and I just wanted a launch any launch b/c deadline

Kind of interesting that midway has played decisive roles in both launches so far imo

The last statement is sorta scummy to me for some reason. It seems like you are viewing Dunn as a policy lynch and then will shrug your shoulders and say "oh well" when he flips town. Granted, he has been pretty useless.
My vote is probably on you tomorrow if he does flip town though.
In post 672, midwaybear wrote:I think puppy townread dunnstral for acting like town when he was about to be hanged. But I don't think that's a good reason which is why I'm fine with Dunnstral.
Not sure I like these two posts almost next to each other. It's like this, in the first post midway half assumes Dunn will flip town but defends it as a good launch anyways, but then he has to make a second post clarifying that he does think Dunn will flip scum. There's like this extra middle step of "but even if Dunn is town it's a good launch" that I don't see town motivation for

Did scum know to look out for a vig? Somehow that seems like exactly the twist that would balance the setup and fulfill the Umlaut creative twist requirement. But I'm not sure. If they have a bulletproof or kerset is scum, then they would have. But if kerset's role is a red herring, they might not have

Enough talking! Tome for the trebuchet.

kidding...

I can't imagine it being midway and to a lesser extent don't think its Kerset.

in that post I reviewed D1 for what must be the third time to see if there are any interactions that clear you. I don't believe there is.

I think your play today has been mostly dominstead by mechanical speculation and somewhat frustration AtE. That's not all you do, but those parts in particular are not hard to fake

Oh I suppose the boiled down reason is "It's not those two. It can be Puppy. Kill Puppy"

As a lot of people are saying I do believe scum is 0paying strong here, I dont think I'll be able to find a major scumtell in your ISO

Puppy I think your plan was initially "Stress townread Fidget (to throw us off I guess and to be consistent with the read you've had this hold time), eliminate Kerset using her suspicions on Kerset, eliminate Fidget on the next day using midways preexisting suspicions"

It's a pretty slam dunk plan, you totally would have won that Xylo
