Titus seems to think DGB is scum, but the Mafia wiki seems to indicate 'Lazy' is a Town-only modifier.

Because one of us has a chain of night actions that actually makes sense for my role and alignment, whereas you... are a Goofball.

And here I've seen zero defense for Hayker because it's fucking indefensible. So can we stop pointing fingers at one another and eliminate scum?
You AND Luca need to specify why you think DGB’s night actions make no sense. I think you’re perspective slipping.

I was only really saying that you could ISO me and see (at least at the start of D2 with Titus and calling Mom vanilla before they claimed it, most notably) whereas I haven't seen any indicators similar with Goofball. How is that perspective slipping? What even is that to you, actually?

They make no sense from my perspective because I TR all four of them, and for me the chances of blocking a Town PR would have been far greater than that of blocking a scum action, especially with the earlier choices. I can kind of understand why Goofball targeted Momrangal I guess, but I think it was a low-percentage play.

That said, I believe Goofball is Town based on their general play, as well as the fact that 'lazy' appears to be a Town-only modifier, based on the wiki.

I'm encouraged by the fact that the Titus wagon is likely all-town atm. Only one I'm not sure 100% of is Andres, and he's most likely Town if Titus is scum.

I feel like I just want to flip this and work out the rest Tomorrow, tbh.

I've become a lot less certain of my reads. The only (non-conf) read I'm still sure of is that Norwegian is Town.

I work in IT. It's the busy time ATM, but I still have a mafiascum tab up most of the day. I will sometimes check in and read a little. My posting style (times that I post) has changed due to this busy time (before I would just post all day during work).

Why did you ask this question?
Because you haven’t answered why you said we should vote Momrangal and that kind of secrecy seems really unnecesarry to me right now.

At this point, Hayker wasn't low hanging fruit. Nero was. Then molla. Then Plus. Now unfortunately I made the mistake of following the wrong train (while avoiding what I still believe to be another town flip) and should be held accountable. As should Titus. It isn't that I disbelieve the scrutiny to be fair or well founded, but it's extraordinarily bothersome when someone becomes insulting without realizing they're being a complete and total fucking hypocrite. You were one of the biggest proponents to eliminating Hayker but after really only two and a half game day's time (NM sucking all information and worth out of two phases merely by proximity) now he's "low hanging fruit" and I'm "so bad" for pushing it?

I'm gonna step away for the night, but sincerely and earnestly.

Fuck you.

I'd rather yeet chkflip than Titus because I believe he's the rolecop.

There's a remote possibility that Titus is just awful.

You're making me think, if they are scum together, Titus might be the rolecop, and chklip is pretending to be the rolecop.

I know he's saying is he is a vanilla cop, but as you know a vanilla cop is a subset of a rolecop in a Venn diagram. It's easy to be a rolecop and fake being a vanilla cop.
