770 - unwnd I can’t fully understand what you’re saying here, so I’ll ask some questions.
Who do you think is pushing pre-determined executions? And who are you saying has reads without substance? If you’re speaking about my reads, I very much explained my read on Shellyc towards the beginning of today. Are you complaining about my TRs? I have made some arguments about nopoint before in D1. None of that has really changed.
If you’re speaking about Shellyc, she doesn’t have a choice. She had 3 people as Scum, one of which was NK’ed, one who claimed Cop (with no CC), and the other one who was the result of a check.
I also don’t get what being stubborn has anything to do with it. Flavor and Shellyc are stubborn, yes. So am I. So is Titus. What’s your point?
If you ask me, I think Flavor needs to more conclusively demonstrate why nopoint makes sense as the execution. There were some arguments about how the votes stacked up, but it’s an inscrutable argument because it has to assume that Flavor is Town, and no one knows that but Flavor. If you noticed, Flavor was voted yesterday by a Confirmed Town, and by Dunn/Not_Mafia at one point. Which is why Flavor is throwing shade to the only other person on their wagon. Again, I’m not buying it.- Andresvmb

When I don't know what's going on or I can't follow the room, I start making my own interpretations. A lot of what I previously said is best described as looking at the big picture instead of small details. Why do you think we no-limmed yesterday? This is slightly rhetorical. It's because people can't decide what they want, and I believe this isIn post 776, Andresvmb wrote:770 - unwnd I can’t fully understand what you’re saying here, so I’ll ask some questions.

Again, I’m not buying it.becauseof predetermined elims. Like, people say 'I want X' as an example but getting your lim requires a bit more effort. There's not really anyone doing that and instead it's a lot of passivity which I'm starting to think is intentional. It's getting hard for me to distinguish posts between players because of this.
In regards to stubbornness, it attributes to the gamestate. You have people who are self-assured with just saying someone is scum is enough for others to simply agree and then accumulate votes. It's not that I'm requiring walls or deep intricate analysis, it's that I require some some sort of thought pattern to follow along with. I don't really feel like you answered my question and instead with 'well shelly does this'. Strip away your preconceived notions of shelly and tell me if she would make sense as scum just by the amount of attention she's accrued already.Protect yourself from the back of your mind- unwnd

Well okay I highlighted a few posts that I thought were bad. But the best comment in terms of how Shellyc is playing has been made by nopoint in 561. Johnny also thought it made sense. From looking back, it’s one of those posts that if you read more carefully, you quickly realize it probably comes from Town. That’s informing my perspective a bit.
I can only explain why I wasn’t more aggressive about getting consensus yesterday - because I didn’t realize it was a majority only elimination type game. This is my least favorite type of structure for a game actually, because you typically have to convince way too many people about a particular course of action and it is quite difficult to get a Scum execution this way. I mean, I think plus is Town for example (their pursuit of the truth strikes me as genuine). I also think they’re horribly wrong. Not uncommon for Town to disagree like this.
So yeah I don’t think having pre-determined eliminations in mind has anything to do with the outcome yesterday. I would more describe it as simple Town apathy. I’m still confused as to why you think that someone attracting a lot of attention cannot be Scum. It’s almost as if you think that Scum are so hard to find typically that they never attract attention early in the game. This is obviously not true.- Andresvmb

Like I don’t think this is *that* complicated either. Shellyc was pushing multiple players yesterday that are now either Confirmed Town or very likely Town mechanically. Pushing a Town player in and of itself is whatever - we can all be wrong. But the mechanical part of it - that was not planned. And so that is obviously forcing me to focus on Shelly again. The weirdest part (and Titus spoke about this too) is that shellyc had a universe where she thought {Not_Mafia, Dunnstral, Titus} could be Scum. But her vote to end the day was on nopoint. That clearly demonstrates that Shellyc wasn’t eager to compromise and consolidate, which is Scummy behavior in context.- Andresvmb

I specifically stated at least 2 scum in the bottom group in the post that you quoted, and said "but all 3", why the misrep?In post 766, Andresvmb wrote:
@unwnd remember, Flavor is saying that all of the Scum are in {plusJOYED, Fuzzy, nopoint, you}. Do you buy that? Because I don’t.

I'd say at least 2 scum in bottom group, possible scum in that shelly, hank, johnny. But all 3 could be in that bottom.
I caught Plusjoyed earlier in the year, and they were trying there too, what's that have to do with it? I specifically stated scum can be in the 3 person group, which includes Hank. That is my suspicious/null pile.CHECK OUT MY HOW TO PLAY AS SCUM GUIDE Maybe it'll help you catch me

I'm unsure why you keep misrepping my posts? I don't feel like it's on purpose, if that helps, but you probably need to reread my posts.

Honestly? Hank Shelly flavy. I agree plus and unwnd are too pushy to be scum here. I think they're just wrong. You're a good tinfoil but on the real if you're scum I'm almost willing to throw this game now. Gera is also a big ???In post 762, Andresvmb wrote:

Unwnd is scum by VCA. 1.04 to 1.05 no point looks like scum trying to get off the wagon that looks to be gaining, but the Not Mafia wagon likely has a scum on it, which does fit with my Plus theory.
Like even if someone thought I was scum, Unwnd is scum based on 1.05/1.06, where another scum is in the other 4, at least 1.

Like backed off, chill vibe giving the impression of being burnt out and sick of winning. I'm aware that can be true regardless of alignment, which is why I'm not pushing it. Just worth saying. And I think the similarity puts you above Gera in my poePhone posting. Low effort, big fun.

I had a sick obsession with fading a mason last game, and did the work so I'd be able to do so, and failed.

@Johnny - I also had you, Titus, Andres, Not Mafia, Geraint, and Hank who had all just gotten beaten by me, why would I be playing the same game?

I also beat Dunnstral earlier in the year in one of my stronger scum games of the year in a final 3p lylo situation.
and as town, I caught PlusjoyedScum.
This is not a game I would have played scum "normally". I don't feel I have, but I think if you sense some similarities, it's because my scum game is strong with mimicking my town game.CHECK OUT MY HOW TO PLAY AS SCUM GUIDE Maybe it'll help you catch me
