Maybe it's not worth the risk shooting Noraa.
It indicated to me that it read on the game was bad. It indicated the was a deep wolf. I knew I'd be getting one of the scrolls. I also thought that the was a good chance I was wrong about Pooky and also that I wouldn't be able to help myself from scrolling him

It's unclear to me what you think that would be my fake reaction, as if I'm smart enough to get to the f4 as scum but not smart enough to realize the game wasn't actually over

Yes.
So effectively, we need to find two scums to end the day. Who is the consensus second? Have we been using HURT tags to indicate a preference?

Those are usually the options. That's why I asked for the case on Noraa to determine which it was.

Additional: Murdercat is helpful.
But it might be busy work and an excuse to interact with partners in a way without truly interacting with them.


Is an example, I think he also summarized the game for Vax and somebody else. Rather, it seems pretty non-discriminatory so it is very hard to tell.
I can be helpful like this as town too. Depends who I'm pretending to be that day.

Bell if you don't make an amazing case for Murder-Town before the deadline I'm pretty sure I'm scrolling him.

Ok. It was actually a reaction to realizing we are suddenly in a very bad spot. I'm kind of insulted you think I'm that bad despite the fact that as scum I would have played very well to get here. Can you explain why I am throwing the game pushing Noraa when I could have pushed bell and won?

I would sum up the case as this:
- Noraa had what looked like a fake town slip early on about the number of scum there are in the game
- When pressured, Noraa went into LAMIST content generation mode
- Noraa talked about passing the scroll to LLD, who is widely town read, out of spite. This looks like a setup to make it seem as if the blatant town kill isn't actually coming from scum to keep some confusion going into the 3rd flip.
This sounds like Noraa is just an angry emotional player. I'd be run up half my games with this standard. Do you not believe the case?

I'm currently at about 70% chance of Noraa scum. The problem is that Noraa is an emotional player and did have a very strong emotional reaction. But I also respect her scum game enough to believe that she would use that in her favor and she recently said that she fakes townslips in all her scum games.

Christ finally.

What I would like to understand is why you had no tangible difference between your Murder and Bell reads up until now, and why you were generally fine with Bell being scrolled.
Bell looked pretty shitty before he started obvtowning imo.

It really doesn't come off like that to me. Could you show me why it does?

If Murdercat is scum I'm sure he's working alone here.

Btw I still stand by this post
What's your take on Murderkitty defending Fred?
I mean, no shit he's working alone if he's scum cuz if he's scum, he's the last one. I defended Fred at one point bc I thought his wagon looked super similar to mine but I was wrong.
In post 9316, Fidget wrote:
In post 9253, Noraa wrote:This was a point I brought up a while ago. It was so that she could be like "Oh oops Noraa isnt scum? Lemme just take like 3 game days to fix my reads up a bit"
Maybe, but at least would you agree shelly would be much more likely to do that in an attempt to prop herself up and set up miselims? That's pretty much what I'd expect her to do. You were dead for certain at that point, she didn't really need to help the wagon. So what's her motivation? My guess would be to set up the next elim targets.
It's kinda unfair that you all can say I was dead for certain day 1 but won't let me say that LLD pass was almost certainly coming my way? Like you can't just use logic like this when it benefits u and not use it when it doesn't.

Shelly/Titus/DGB are all experienced enough to manage their associatives and lay down wifom with their partner. Fred is not - unless you think Fred is actually some deepthought scumlord who decided to purposefully lay down 0 associatives with MC in order to give his scumbuddy something to frame MC with at Lylo?
seeing that he died the moment he replaced in ..... he def isnt a deepthought scumlord.
