So you assumed she was scum pre pass? Fair enough

Does that not shake up your read on the game at least a bit though?

I didn't assume she was scum - I thought she was town.

I know that LLD scrolled Theta and greatly influenced Vax to scroll Hopkirk. Ironically his initial HURT was on Shelley but why was Toog scrolled? I haven’t read that part of the game due to being V/LA.

Hopkirk and I though they had a decent shot of being scum and most players agreed it was a town led wagon. They then also self voted.

I need people who are town reading Pooky to seriously consider his associations for me by the way. We are at the point of the game where we don't need to read his tone, just look at his subtle defense of shelly

Perhaps Pooky is in there instead? Mostly anyone who voted UNO

Pedit :P
Don’t you mean pushed Owno? Pooky hard defended both Owno and Shelley. It would be wild if it is Flea, since she was also in Fred’s hitlist.

But I also defended her and I’m town. I lean towards him being a Shelley pocket. When most of the playerlist thinks your scum, it’s very easy to get pocketed, no?

I think Pooky is right, and that is PRECISELY what I'm aiming for. In the process I'm aiming to create a dozen or so strong reads that town can use to create an absolute game winning POE -- "line up and catch your curses here folks, fresh curses, hot off the tongues of blasphemers" sorta deal, so that we can win no matter who we hit or in what order. Ideally, it'll be something that trundles along merrily even if the hard-townbloc gets picked off. In the best case scenario I want to also identify the top 4 most likely red targets and have town hit there first, so we can hit S->T->S twice in a row and scum learn to fear me in mountainous setups.

In the meantime, Pooky owes me a towncase on Tayl0r. No, I will not accept flattery. I still can't read because MURDERCAT is so willing to leave me illiterate.

PEDIT: Toog was scrolled because of time pressure, being pretty middle of the road till that point, and lack of any other viable target. Pretty much /everyone/ agreed that slot was green after the wagon got rolling, but most also agreed that building a different wagon was unlikely to happen in 30 hours with so many lurkers.

Day 1 should be super instructive now in general. Mega-scummy Zdenek was being defended by Shelly, which means even bus-happy Shelly was aware that scum can't afford to sacrifice too many people too quickly. Fred was insanely scummy, and she had to scumread Fred despite townreading Zdenek, but she tried to derail. That does make me wonder who else Shelly defended or tried to derail scumreads on during Day 1? Anyone? Anyone?

Pooky is one of those players who can be correctly read off tone but I still want an answer from him to my Noraa question.

Can someone who is town reading Pooky explain this to me? Pooky isn't dumb so why does he have a read this bad? Could it be that there isn't a path to victory that doesn't involve breaking up the town block and Noraa is the perceived weakest link?

ehhhh

but the easiest way of fake content is a mech oriented approach

also this feels like a game which I can solve through PoE

I don't know how you can think that based on the interactions with Fred and Shelly. You think Fred and Shelly are trying to cast doubt on the deep wolf in the town block?
