yeah, iunno titus. i dont see fidget as scum here. and i think you're reaching. i dont know that you get to scumread people for sheeping you. especially since the reaction test was so obvious that it seemed like it wasnt a reaction test - it almost seemed like you wanted it to be obvious or something. im far more inclined to agree with vecna's take here.

With 15 alive, you need 8 to send someone to the trials with absolute majority vote, and 2 to send someone to the trials with relative majority vote at the end of the day. No Elimination is disabled.

Day 1 will end in (expired on 2020-09-25 11:00:00) or when someone has been sent to the trials by absolute majority.

Pickaxe Pete replaces Princess Leia.

And yes, sending comptent town might be helpful, but that means they won't be here to help later, plus scum exe are VERY bad apparently, i think this outweights any advantage that trialing town could give

##############

Well, if you see anything, why aren't you pointing it out / voting me?
Sure, results can change. Doesn't mean the trials themselves will change.

As for why I was waiting, I wanted to wait for shellyc to address it first in case it was different from what I saw. I felt like you got caught in having shown a mindset that you would be around in Exelo and were trying to brush it off as a joke. Like I said, though, I was pretty distracted; I'm backpedaling on that one now, because I see that the Exelo post itself was a joke.

I've seen making fabricated scumslips from town before. That said, when I saw it, it was meant to gauge the towniness/scuminess of the person being targeted, so it strikes me as weird to do this to someone who is V/LA, or at least not waiting that it was fabricated until the person got back to see if she got nervous. I do think Fidget's reaction was appropriate. I can't tell if Titus just handled that clumsily or was trying to make a show of it.

I mean, you're kinda proving yourself wrong by giving BM towncred for doing that self-vote then right?

This is fake and pointless. What is forced about Taylor's posting? What do you mean by weird flexes? What about pob long's posting confuses you?

Taylor, the mystery of Day 1 Titus does not get explained until the moment comes. I know we haven't played together much so you get a pass for now.

VC please.
no, but i'm literally, honestly, unashamedly happy with sending that slot to trial today. No need to over-think it.
In post 302, Gypyx wrote:Well, just to tell that, i'm not going onto the shelly wagon without the "scumslip" explained, i don't see it, i don't trust titus enough, and i'd rather have other wagons explored
reasonable, especially on the Gypyx scale.
In post 303, Vecna wrote:Its the standard titus reaction test to appear town when she's scum
i like this, although i'm not sure i agree. In my relatively limited experience with Titus, there has been a really stark contrast between Titus-scum and Titus-town, and this is in Titus-town territory. However, obviously she's a good enough player that if she cared, she could play to her town meta (although the fact she doesn't always do this, gives me some modicum of comfort).
In post 304, Vecna wrote:Also, BM, why are you so less much involved and way less opinionated and catchy than u were in the saw game?
you mean the saw game where I single-handedly fked the entire game up for town? yeah, i think that answers your question. :lol:

On a more serious note, I generally reap better rewards when I lay low for the first half of day 1. I haven't done it often, but when I have, my reads have tended to be really good - Saw Day 1 was actually an example of that, although better examples in games since. Good question though.

The fact both DGB and Tayl0r are drawing a link between PL and Shelly makes me even more excited to flip PL. And increasingly reticent about flipping Shelly.

In post 321, Fidget wrote:I apologize that was rude sorry

Anyway. Red Panda town yes. Tayl0r I'm flip-flopping. Leia I think either believes the non-joke ridiculous reads she makes as town, or is scum believes that she would believe them so I don't know where to go there. The confidence on tayl0r might be slightly good

What I mean with shelly was I suppose I don't expect them to point the finger at a ton of people haphazardly as scum. I know they just singlehandedly won a newbie game as scum, and I developed somewhat of a notion that they're probably good at not getting eliminated. Getting on a ton of peoples' bad sides is not great for that strategy. DPG is correct it gives them a wide range of possible votes, but it's so early game that she kind of already has that anyway.
haha dude, i point my ginger haphazardly at everyone (regardless of alignment) in most games, get on everyone's bad side, and very rarely get lunched. :lol:
