That was also a joke. It was a reference to nursing because we need a bunch of doctors notes to do a bunch of different procedures. I intentionally capitalized doctor to continue the gag.
Did everyone just forgot that I told everyone in that game I don't crumb?

I can see Titus + Cakez + Pooky and she hating me for getting a right read.

No one’s really doing Titus though and I feel more likely you’re scum than her though.

Push something? If Titus is scum vote her or someone you think with her.

I know I did. But I am old so sometimes I need reminders.

Dunn, Bell, if you had to add one player to your town block who would it be?
And no repeating who the last player said.

The gall of throwing an ice breaker at me to melt my heart while I'm still scum reading you. (LLD obviously).
It sucks that you thought I was a doctor btw, I could easily see you doing that as scum because even I do that as scum as cover it's such an easy way to grab town cred. It would have been nice if it was something complex enough to fool me into thinking you were town or actually identifying you as town.
Oh well, maybe a way to read you will come to me this game.

Titus played the Sister Card. That's highly scummy.

Pedit: Fuck.

BM maybe. It's a close thing though.

Wait.
Why did Mathblade crumb his suspicion that I was a doctor in this game, like I would somehow doubt the veracity and would absolutely need to know when and where he thought I was a doc?
That's the silliest alibi if town and near self-defeating as scum.

K then If Titus is scum then Prism,LLD,Bell,and Dunn are off the table for elims. I’d add myself but you misread me as scum so that doesn’t count. And while I scumread Prism and LLD to an extent it’s not enough to veto that.

Now if Titus is scum then Cakez and Pooky probably scum? What do you think of this hypothesis?

It wasn’t meant to be an alibi. I was trying to reach out to you going “Hey you! I think you’re the doctor.”

I have dinner and then I need to do some training modules.
maybe TVS? I don' really think they're strongly in conflict though. I suspect Titus, and I wiggle a bit on Dunnstral because I'm weak to peer pressure. But I don't want to wagon either of them rn.
I want to wagon you. But I need to keep my eyes open, sure. Sigh, I've spent too much time playing mafia today. Rip.

If you get back tonight I would be really interested as to why you want to wagon me despite doing something in your words that would be self defeating? Meaning that if I was scum I would be caught right? So then by your own words I am not scum?

I did not imply that. Nor are people models of perfect scum play or efficiency. Nor would I weigh it heavily. If I were you rn, I might be thinking you're a scum traitor crumbing that I'm a doc, but happily, I'm not that far gone yet.

Sure.

I don't agree that Titus is probably town.

I feel like there are two factions in this game and I'm not sure which one is mixed with scum. But one faction is larger than the other, so I'll just go ahead and say the larger faction has more scum. Rather than factions I'd say there's 2 reads lists being thrown about.

Sure, Math. I agree that based on previous posts you've made, that your town games and scum games are probably similar in wording and sentence structure. Even though I've never played with town you. I don't see much reason for you to lie about that, though I'm sure there are differences.
Bell there’s only one scum faction per the OP. It says 4 mafia. If you’re feeling there’s two scum groups then either there is a traitor or there’s a town group pocketed by scum.
No I meant there are two groups of players with similar reads.
One group is pretty convinced Prism is town.
One group is pretty supportive of LLD, while another group resists it.

Note the LLD group is not nearly as fixated on Dunnstrall in rhetoric as the players pushing his wagon, but they're not really against it either. So there's not much of a lack of consensus on Dunnstral, so yeah. If we're just going by votes and that no one is defending him except town me, then there could be a problem there. Or, just Scum bussing and hoping to get convinced to jump off or will pretend to get bored, or maybe they wagoned Dunnstrall early hoping interest would die off if they bussed a buddy early though this puts a lot of attention on him, but best of luck with that.

I'm saying a lot of words, but the observation probably isn't even that important. I would just ignore this post.

I'm not able to read Math's confidence in his reads. Whenever I get hard town read like that my initial position is to unvote them. It's a dumb instinct.
I like this, especially the first few sentences. It's similar to some of my thoughts about the game so far.

I don't think people townreading Prism necessarily scumread LLD.

And I feel like the two wagons have settled out too quickly given a gamestate with several players lacking useful content.

Given even that amount of thought sync, it surprises me that we're not on the same page about Mathblade.

Nacho was townreading her and I don't have any reservations about his read. I would have been null on LLD before the claim just based on wanting to take time and observe more after the Tenet game.

I kinda feel the same but I'm not sure how much of it comes from the Dunn wagon basically popping up as a counter to the Mathblade push.

Totally separate from that dynamic, I hate some of what Dunn's put into the thread, but are a couple of posts I like. :/

-----------------------

Cakez, you made a bit of a thing about expecting paranoia from me. You haven't really done anything with it since. If that's how you plan to read me here, what's going on wrt it?

Also: protip - I'm pretty good at working paranoia into my scum game.

I hope so, and if it's a true claim I'm ecstatic, because I think we both had times in Tenet where we were posting on how LLD was in the upper quadrant of townreads and got super burned there, and I don't really think she's done anything that isn't in line for her MO either alignment pre-claim.
