I've actually found this game to be quite refreshing so far, with decent discussion with minimal shit posting. Do you just not like any of the current wagons?
Actually i like this.
Competing wagons between Cheeky/Mini makes the game much easier for me to read in terms of finding scum.
There have been other wagons...

Did none of them ping you?
Idk what you mean.
I haven’t found them as compelling if that’s what you’re asking.

Meaning I could vote for either. Mini talks about cheeky being a scum read, but never votes that way, and questions people about their cheeky read.

The reason I want mini more is because it gives 2 decent town clears.

Ok. But reading your initial comment it came across as: "I will vote Mini now, but am going to vote Cheeky instead later", as in you was only really fine with Cheeky.
Which town clears btw?

Yourself and Luca. Not 100% clear, but I'd put you in the town pile.

I’m starting to understand Binatog’s posting pattern. The game can be hard to break into, and there’s lots of little threads that lead nowhere.

Quiet’s defense of mini by asking for references and notarized forms feels like sealioning.

I think its a highly manipulative argument and could see Luca making that argument to preserve that status quo. OTOH scum do react like that so it could just decent analysis. I know thats kinda fence sitting but idk what's going on.

though on 2nd thought Luca saying that while sitting on a vanity wagon does kinda make me worry that it's just scum trying to push 4 a mini elimination while not getting his hands dirty.

not helping
your fucking logic is ridiculous here nero do I actually need to explain why it's ridiculous
yes
I know for a fact one of your reads is wrong, and I disagree on another read, so they're bad

I don't need to be clairvoyant about every single one of your reads to call them bad bro
this is very basic and pretty lame. Writing my reads off as bad when you only disagree with yourself and 1 read doesn't make a ton of sense to me. Theoretically speaking it I could have all 4 scum in the pool. I think wondering whether or not this was TMI is a plenty valid concern and your violent reaction is both scummy and dumb. As an example, scum Skitter called my reads "bad" in a game when we were in (I mean they were but still...) so I don't think it's impossible that you could TMI like this as well.
okay Nero lol

I'm still leaning it, but the coaching theory is exactly the type of logic I love. I had a Mafia Godfather theory earlier (reading the wiki educated me as to what's a normal role) that was a bit similar in mindset.
