I had similar feeling on this when I first read it, I think that mom's read progression on you was actually quite natural, enough to outweigh my previous scumvibes on her.

So why are you happy about your Nero vote again? Nero is so sure Not_Mafia is Scum, they fakeclaimed Not_Mafia’s role in frustration. So clearly they’re not aligned as Scum.
This was not my read whatsoever. I read them as either distancing, or trying to claim that NM had faked the tracker claim, that he was the real tracker all along.

Or are you saying this is VT fakeclaiming a PR???

I elim that anyway.
You really think Nero went this hard with the distancing tactic in a game as large as this? I don’t know man there’s probably some really sophisticated Scum out there and I’m just bad but that’s not the first thing that comes to mind.

Someone else vote Nero omg
Also, what is Not_Mafia doing? This is some of the worst play I’ve ever seen.
I will SEARCH for games with you and N_M to help you policy him.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.

I'm switching horses here, because this flip will confirm a lead I want to pursue later.

Alright. What is this lead you want to confirm?

did I mention that quiet was scum?
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Exactly, this feels just like how i played the entire room back in a newbie with Luca.
I claimed VT when i got E-1 but pretended that i thought i got hammered. Then i kept stating people should vote me because my flip will prove (town) is scum. And eventually people actually bought my BS.

pedit (I think that's how that phrase works) fair point on the distancing thing. My original impression was this is just a fake pr claim to try and survive, and that's still the vibe I get, but if someone is telling me that VT FAKE FRUSTRATION CLAIMS are a thing, then, shit, I guess that's a thing. I wanted to understand if a real PR would actually come out earlier for the notMafia fake/real/whatever claim. I saw the distancing thing in Bypasser's post and was like, mm, yeah, I guess that could also make sense, it's a reasonable reason for it to happen.

I really, really hope you’re right and are Town. I sincerely do. Because then I’ll be the one under pressure and I can deal with that. But I KNOW how annoying you are to eliminate as Scum.

I may have had very light reasons to vote Nero when I jumped on the wagon from Hayker, but I am exceptionally happy to be on this wagon right now. My vote stays. Don't buy the claim whatsoever.

But also I know for a fact I don't like playing with angry players, and that might be coloring my read. I didn't have the time I wanted to read over old games, but I'm satisfied enough with what has been said.

Plus I'm with Norfolk, and a few others. This sure as hell seems to provide a lot more info than Hayker's elim.

Also the gamestate seemed to change pretty seriously since I last posted. Today was some early susses, then an almost casual hammer on NM, a slow moving, stalled out wagon on Hayker, then whatever the hell the last 20something pages have been of fighting over Nero's slot. Three very different wagons.

Does anyone have a take on why the game slowed down when Hayker was up? Is it just because it wasn't a very exciting elim?
thinking about this the Nero wagon in this game seems similar to the Pretentious wagon in LN 230
I'm officially not at all okay with limming Nero Cain today, everyone out of the wagon
VOTE: Hayker
I'd like to go with this, barring another sudden change or someone actually making the PJ wagon sensible to me

yeah thats how scum responds to when I am hardtunneling them and they're big mad they think they are caught for bad reasons. reminds me of tn back in "Meet me in the backrooms" who was so confident in self hammering because i said i hard TR their partner.

(they actually self hammered so the dynamic is different)

@Nero so the tracker claim was officially fake? Is that what I'm hearing? Can I get you to either double down or back off the claim?
