However if you think that DDL is the scummiest in the group and want to leave him so the 3p's can get their wincon off of him, then you should feel only a mild inclination to shoot in the group.Shame on a martyr claiming friends

We move closer to our wincon if we are on every scum elimination. A50s execute is not elimination.In post 6205, Tayl0r Swift wrote:

hmmm i dont like being blatantly lied to about 3ps wincons, but at the same time, it seems like both 3ps know each other's wincons and both are still saying town aligned so probably hiding the info from scum rather than town.
as for the other bit: without knowing the wincons its hard to suggest that we dont just shoot scum. that said if you do decide to leave DDL for tomorrow, then probably shoot chemist because the claim doesnt add up.
pedit: what exactly is the wincon and what happens if you arent on every scum elimination?- Tayl0r Swift

Why bother neighborizing another in your council? You’ve already got A50 who can bridge between your factions“Why was I chosen?'

There was nothing left to hide from anyone. I needed the public opinion and he reiterated the same argument, and Math backed him up (but I don't blame him because Math doesn't know "everything"). Titus started getting cold feet too because ddl was almost unanimous, so I figured maybe leaving ddl till later may backfire.In post 6215, Tayl0r Swift wrote:why was that discussion in this thread rather than in your PT?

Time-zones is one factor. They won't have to wait for me to show up and read either PT to convey questions/suggestions to the other, wait for a response and then relay said response back to the first PT.In post 6217, DiamondSentinel wrote:Why bother neighborizing another in your council?

A50-
Correct mechanical play with regard to lynches is always a bit of a strange one and I don[t think it needs to be entirely mechanical. Right now, I think you have a very strong grasp on the gamestate- certainly much stronger than mine at this time- and your thoughts are well reasoned. I think you're probably more likely to hit scum on your judgment here than we would be with a conventional lynch, quite frankly- assuming we explicitly ignored going for DDL. You also have sight of more of the mechanical pieces in play than I do, so I'd guess it's best to discuss that with Mastina in the hood rather than getting my opinion on that.
Now, the 'correct' theoretical play obviously changes because you're looking to keep that 3p group sweet with that whole lynch thing. Do they want you to keep DDL for them? If so, I'd say that's the correct play. That's the best compromise.
Technically you could capitulate even further, but that's a bad call- you see, if you took out Pickaxe Pete despite townreading him, with the intention of flipping him as town, it would make it more clear that DDL was scum. That, however, is stupid- this line of reasoning is more here to evidence that offering a likely scum as an option to the other 3p group rather than just lynching there is technically a concession in terms of optimal play for town.
I'm not really confident at all on Chemist's alignment here- if anything I would lean town there. I think Shelly was actually conftowned mechanically by the disloyal thing and don't think that should be disregarded as easily as it has been.
At this stage, I think the scumteam is most likely to be DDL, Taylor, DS, and one of TGP and S_S.
I think you should shoot DDL if the other 3Ps don't care if you leave DDL for them or not, and go with your gut otherwise. I'd feel better if your reads were aligned with mine, but my reads aren't even entirely aligned with mine right now so yours are probably more accurate."As best I can tell, jjh is some kind of wizard with mind control powers." -Jingle- jjh927
