No resistance? Not sure about that.

But resistance is fake anyway so eh
Resistance was the wrong word, yeah.

But we went from Ythan 8 to Titus 4 in a page with nothing revelatory from Ythan and it was just a naked vote where y'all just seamlessly moved. Big dislike.
stop trying to rewrite the narrative! using resistance when it's the wrong word? wtf. obvscum. you need to be very exact and just because someone could easily get your intent/point if they were reading objectively rather than reading with a goal (not that i have thoughts on this scenario) doesn't mean it's ok to use words that
could
mean something else in a different context, but not the context they're in where the meaning is incredibly clear

ah, good old parallels

(obviously this is meant to be sarcastic)
Hey look Hopkirk once again couching an accusation with "jk haha... but what if... nah jk haha," so he can flip whichever way the wind blows, while he was actually begging anyone who townread me to justify it when we were steamrolling towards deadline and yeeting me was not a realistic possibility. Would love to actually have some folks actually acknowledge that hop is a scumbag and we can yeet the fuck out of him.




I agree mostly with dunn's split, though I would make Ythan a higher priority today solely based on the way wagons played out yesterday. IV's early posting is concerning today. Lots of pangs I don't like.

VOTE: Ythan
what exactly do you think my post was meant to be saying? at no point am i saying it's a joke
it's pretty clear that i'm pointing out that your 'read' on me is hypocritical on top of all the other problems with it. you clearly don't believe it and i don't see a town mindset behind it, but annoyingly nobody else seems to be engaging me on this point or voting you so like maybe there is one i'm not seeing? but if that's the case it'd really help if other people can weigh in on this kind of stuff if i'm getting tunnelled on it :/

@Ceph/Xtoxm - thoughts on Agar's posting in relation to me?

like i'm not
shading
you when i've said i'd prefer to vote you over anyone else, i'm directly saying you're the most likely scum and pointing out how your play continues to be garbage

you have to understand that, i don't play this game to roll mafia and relish in being a manipulative liar

i play this game because i like figuring out the mafia team, and when i get invested especially, i really want to win, you know this is straight from my town meta

i guess you haven't seen me as scum but it's way different, yes i play to win for the most part but i can't fake the energy, genuine interrogation, fresh content, and sustained presence in thread that I do as town and frankly i doubt many scumplayers can to the extent that i do (yes, even though I know it's my problem, I just still can't), let alone me, a literal shit-tier scumplayer

ive been complaining about both D1 wagons and they both flipped town and that's scummy how? i don't really understand what the case on me is in general

but this is going to fall on deaf ears because you've literally already said you won't entertain self-meta arguments like this
oh yeah i forgot you were obvtown too and there's no point rereading you either
think you'd ever say this as scum or nah?

I subscribe to a school of thought that scum very rarely if ever engage in misrepresentation on purpose, and because of that I'm not seeing scum in either you or agar at this time even without doing a deep dive into the argument to decide who I think is right (I dont care who is right)

As I said, it's 90% a Vig vs 10% SK to me. If it ain't banned by the rules it is still possible. It's just improbable.
Where in the mod provided number of 14 town would you slot the SK?
OK, so it's confirmed there's no SK in this game. We just had a bad Vig shot, and I am recommending they stop shooting TPRs.

Because I am confident Mastina is town, and since I respect her and she was putting more effort into day 1 than I was, plus she was pretty confident on the LLD and Titus reads, PLUS I felt she was more capable of reading those slots, I was happy to sheep

Mastina often functions on a similar wavelength to myself. There really aren't very many people at all who I would just straight up sheep certain reads from but Mastina is one of them. I can't think of others off the top of my head
if Titus flips town how would your read change on Mastina?

In post 3391, Xtoxm wrote:given the wagons yesterday were tvt, my thoughts on what scum were doing yesterday:

#1 didn't probably care ultimately which way the elim went
#2 i think its clear the lld-parkers were more committed than the dgb voters, i dont even think dgb would have been eliminated today, tbh..therefore i expect scum may have preferred the dgb wagon, to maintain the gamestate of lld being wagon parked again today
#3 maybe scum also had elements of fear in voting lld due to reputation or something

given this my slots of interest are:
WF - talked about lld being the better info elim, but then voted dgb instead, with little reasoning provided. fits with (#1) and (#2)
a50 - absent entirely at deadline, never a good sign. fits with (#1). bad takes coming into today

also:
bell - prior susp on this slot. fits (#2). auro thinks his conversation with agar near EOD sounded, in hindsight, informed that both wagons were on town.

dunn - being scummy again. the pre-written post seems like a massive over-reaction to a d1 mis-elim. his plans dont alter at all with the new info on dgb-town.

im not throwing out all my reads bc of one incorrect scumread. my tr was correct on dgb also. the dgb voters were also all wrong.

my vibe right now is that scum would have been happy to get a strong player like LLD voted out, saw there were a bunch of town committed to it/they didn't need to (maybe one scum i guess but nobody i really dislike there) and decided to let the town push it until deadline while doing other stuff. probably a wagon or two on scum there but i want to reread wagons
there's probably a bunch of scum in the less hardcore preference people/lower activity slots

Hopkirk doesn't post much compared to the rest of the game, but I just feel he's town when he does post.
sense
In post 3497, Bell wrote:I think IV is town and Winterflakes belongs in the blackhole tier.
I don't think a Dunnstral vote should almost ever be a blackmark against someone, esp. day 1.

The IV town read is based less on meta and more on content being relatively varied, a broad focus on the game and I don't really think his anxiousness is faked anymore.

Outside of that, just from meta, I know there are like, 2-4 IV playstyles. I've never played with IV scum, but I do know that his town game can vary and that he goes from super anxious town to weirdly confident shit posting. His votes jumping around might be due more to playstyle than opportunism. But it's possibly just opportunism, lol.

I believe Mastina has limited connection due to power outages due to the cold-ass weather I want to focus more on her and think we're just sort of ignoring her from effort.

I think Luca has been in catch up mode for a suspiciously long time. I would normally have caught up over night if I hadn't been on vacation. What's your excuse Luca?
this doesn't really feel like you're saying anything in those words tbh

He's not struggling to post. That's all I got. Also, I've never really seen him effort as scum. I would consider that Listicle an example of effort.
But it's probably faster for him just to town case himself.

P.S.: Supposedly this isn't true, but from the 4 games I've played with him (2 scum, 2 town). it kind of was.

I'm talking overall. I don't recall A50 ever being terribly active. He just struggles to fake solve or has memory/engagement issues.
But I really think it's better if he just says it himself. Since he might not see himself that way. For me it seems reliable as a tell for A50 tho.
