I don’t know how many scum Army has.
I don’t know whether this is multiball or SK. (SK is my hunch)
I don’t know whether you’re a town aligned 3P or not. (Sorry you and A50 can claim whatever you want but I don’t buy it)

Since I don’t know enough about the setup and people’s motives I can’t then put an individual read on them. Eg I was right to call Mastina not town because of the gamma issue but I was wrong to call her group scum assuming the situation holds.

I don’t know enough to know motives so I look for people who are genuine and not manipulative and they get a town read.

Then wagon theory to build my acceptable execution pool and gut the rest.

Unless some divine magical fairy tells me the setup or I get some information in a really impractical way I don’t see me doing anything besides town hunting and blocking and eliminating the rest because I can’t see the undercurrent.

Ascetic is a common SK claim/mod.

He could be group scum. Just playing odds.

I was trying to get at Mathblade's scumreads and away from VCA.

His response was all about VCA. I'm trying here.

P.S. I think Pickaxe/Chemist/SS nets at least two scum.

Great VCA disagrees with you.

So I wouldn’t follow that conclusion but would exe SS based on my gut.

math, you are town reading al of chemist, tgp and DS right?
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

It’s going to stay VCA and gut until I have info to act on. I get what Taylor is trying to do to have us not dominate the thread but I can’t like not answer a question you’ve asked me. I get you don’t like my strategy. You as 3P with whatever win con have more info than I do. You have three brains to pick.

I have had maybe 24 hours. Expecting a solve while I am integrating into the game is unreasonable Titus.

Oh I took it as “I’ll think about it and use it” was how I read the implication and therefore was sus.

I am trying to have a non VCA discussion with you.

Set aside VCA. Should we execute Pickaxe Pete or Chemist? Why or Why not?

If Chemist isn't a townread (as you said to Nero), why are you so fast to shoot me down?

Yes. You are. Without VCA and/or gut I have nothing. Too bad.

Should we? I don’t know. I know I would rather execute SS or shelly.

Again you’re using characterizing words like “so fast”. I am not shooting you down. I disagreed with you. That isn’t “shooting you down so fast”. This isn’t about control. The fact you think it is is telling. I replaced in, looked at things with a fresh perspective and have the conclusions I do. These are initial reads. I stated an opinion.

We have at least half of the player base with their pants down so my main focus is resolving claims while keeping pants on. A game solve is a bit more of a luxury compared to preventing scum from having a map to kill us.

It wasn’t an argument that he was scum.
It was an argument of if there was scum it’s Pickaxe.

Think like Civ. I got burned making assumptions that a scum had to be on the wagon. Everyone else was either flipped town or claimed 3P.

Until you respectfully have a theory or can engage in constructive dialog, please listen more so you can. I see no further point in discussing with you right now.

I am pretty sure that I can engage in hunting and ascertain whether my gut is right while listening. I really don’t like that you’re trying to tell me to shut up here. I just want to interact with people.

Then when I do so you ask me imho stupid questions that you want to hear what you want to hear. Then you say shut the f up when it wasn’t what you want.

I have to talk to get reads when I am going by gut Titus.

I can easily choose not to talk to you if you like but I will ask questions of others.

So Nero's in that 3p block? Or are they in Titus' presumed masonry?

Either way, I'm not liking their tone, but I might need to reevaluate.

Almost50 a 3P leaves
Nero leaves

Mastina and Morning Mage enter the wagon.

This leaves Morning Mage and Pickaxe Pete as only potential army on the wagon.

On the Ban all hydras wagon added Nero Sam and GE
Nero is 3P who floated between the wagons
GE was voting the biggest wagon other than himself.

So we’re left with Plus DS Christopher (who I think is Chemist) and Samantha (scully I think)

Rule of three says there’s likely a scum somewhere in this list.

However again none of these were really pushing the wagons iirc (please correct me if I am wrong)
Based on tone this didn’t seem like a scum driven wagon either.

So this game seems to be driven by NT players.

This jives with my 2-8 out of no where scum bus just it was NT.
@Nero you mean here? Again it’s a factual statement that if scum were on the wagon it’s Pete or Morning Mage. I don’t see where you get three from. Norwegian is conf not scum, assuming Army = scum
