Try again with specifics. Which players do you think are not truthful. Why?

I think that it's possible some of the non-masons have better reads because they have the typical game perspective of "in/out of elim-pool based on my play". That's a channel of info that's mostly lacking in the Gamma wagon.

It's conceivable that either wagon could be entirely town-driven. But there has to be at least one scum on one of the two main wagons.
For there to be scum in the Gamma wagon either Bulge is scum or one of the conftowns is actually scum somehow
What are you suggesting?

I don't particularly find self-preservation votes scummy because really who wouldn't, but I'm not sure how I feel about how easily and readily he jumped to gamma, when the last thing he said about gamma was the he was sliding to town, and then left.

I'm going to give this another try at explaining where my head is at.

This is a situation where no conftown are on the Bulge wagon. Maybe having that additional channel of info -- how the non-masonries are reading each other explains that, or if the wagon has scum presence.

Gamma's wagon isn't going to tell us much if he flips town.

These are considerations outside my reads of both Bulge and Gamma.

I'm not suggesting this is reason to change votes. It's just an acknowledgement of the gamestate as I see it.

I'll consider moving to Nahdia if there's enough energy around that, especially if their wagon doesn't become super polarized like the composition of these two wagons.

Let me just bare my soul real quick with a song.

I have had an awful last few hours. I just had my worst fears and doubts about my living situation confirmed, and I have to figure out a viable way out that does not require prolonged suffering and submission to powers I now barely respect if at all. In some situations I would take my leave and bear no mind to any questions asked of my departure. In others I would plunge my blade into my breast in order to save my own dignity. But here and now, after spending so much time working to stay afloat? My desire to survive is stronger than ever before, and I will strike anyone who threatens it, like a wounded animal. I still have my wits about me to tell friend from foe, but my vision is blurred with blood and tears so my strikes may not hit true. But I will be damned before I let anything jeopardize my ability to live. Let me fight on one more day.

That little rant has to do with both real talk and what’s going on in the game.

It’s real talk time.

Unlike with bulge where I dunno what’s up. Gamma’s been super on the level. I don’t think gamma would be comfortable talking to some of the players on this list as scum in the way he’s talking to them. ESP. Alisae. Maybe i’m In his pocket, but Gamma earned that pocket.

you were the only two unconfirmeds not voting me, I would expect some line of communication between the two of you if both town. here's your ice breaker. obviously now the situation has changed and with it the question has been dodged.
