It’s just really important to me that you use the word equity right.
Based on the fact that Morph is fully capable of being town leader as scum, alongside the fact that the overall gamestate feels like scum is going with the flow, which a town leader very much can, and they end up being like the decider vote, on top of knowing that Cabd is definitely the type of player that can excel in a spot like that as scum, and seeing it from the perspective, I feel it’s like blatantly obvious to me that Morph is scum. Their scum equity is crazy high compared to that of like Zmuffin, who oh my wow, is prob town.

I’m still figuring out how to show you guys they are scum, and there lies the issue.

It’s one of those situations where I know they’re scum, and because there literally isn’t enough info, I can’t prove it, and they know it, and they know I know it, and can’t do anything about it.

So this is all me trying to do something about it. Even if I fail, they’ll know I was coming. Ya feel me, dudes?
Thanks for this. Now I know where to put my time.
I recommend you just try to push me as scum.

But wait, I’ll counter. I’m playing with such confidence because I shall claim the cliché, I will be able to be Conf town come Day 3.

Boom. Mic dropped!

The quip about ignoring it when you get nk Ed was because it generates a lot of wifom when you leave a note like that.
I love WIFOM.

People hate on WIFOM so much, but it’s so good. It literally just lets you analyze in advance, and both town and scum can manipulate it to their advantage.

I just be making them plays both alignments, when most people don’t as either alignment.

You gotta deep analyze the player on a personal level. Create a narrative.

Bell, you my townie, right? I really really need you to be.

People make a lot of assumptions and that’s not untrue for scum either. It’s incredibly difficult to understand a night kill, because sometimes they’ve gone off the deep end.

Fair, but I would say that it’s a townie skill to also control the range of the WIFOM available.

I lived right next to the Charles Schulz museum and ice rink, like 4 minute walk level, for years.

That can’t be a coincidence that you’re snoop, and I lived that close to the origin of peanuts.

Take the town block tug of war and go confuse somebody else with it.

Also, this isn’t a hostage situation and you’re not the hostage so, stop working me, conman.

I see what you're trying to say now.

The [Tv? or SvS] thing was the first thing that occurred to me and then I tried to dig into the branching paths of what such a thing meant. [TvX ~= SvS] was not a conclusion I feel I ever tried to present.
leading me to believe you find the two roughly equivalent in terms of likeliness.
I am explicitly stating here that that isn't what I was trying to convey.

(I still also feel like that was pretty clear based on the conclusion of the post and I kind of feel like you're trying to subtly accuse me of being disingenuous)

I don't agree; "there is scum motivation to be a town leader in a go-with-the-flow gamestate" is fine only as a piece to an argument about why they wouldn't do the same as town which I think you're just not addressing

I’d rather wait and see if I’m wrong rather than misfading them.
I think scum trying to do what you're saying they're doing either votes or at the very least doesn't say this

I agree, but you have to see it from my perspective where my other reads are, and what I was seeing the gamestate as actually being, so that probably only pulls up a selection of possibilities, many of which include Morph, so while I like your sentiment as a whole, you are severely understating the layer of which I am currently peeling at.

I think April definitely has some ulterior motives going on here in regards to scumreading morph but i don't know which alignment they come from. I don't think they actually SR morph like they claim. I can think of a few possibilities.

1. He's scum going for an elaborate against the grain read (complete with crumbs) for townie points. If that was their intention it seems to have worked
2. This is scum theater (morph is my strongest TR so I think this is less than 1% of being the right answer, but it is possible)
3. This is town!april trying to keep morph alive since morph is very widely townread
4. This is a gambit by April to wait for someone to follow him in his SR of morph or switch off onto April, and then they'll go "aha, I've caught the real scum guys, vote this person" This could come from either alignment but makes the most sense as town!april
5. This is a petty fight for center of attention as town

Given Aprils prior posts and weird style, I think the true correct motive is option 4 and I'm not afraid to admit it since I don't think it'll catch scum like April thinks.

It’s not like majorly strong, but it’s there enough where I feel like I am correct.

If something happens that proves me wrong, I’d oblige, but I don’t feel like I am wrong on Morph.
