Man, you are falling into the exact same tunnel I did on day 1. Yes, I get it, VPB's reaction to being pushed on is scummy. It makes you want to keep pushing on him and it made me want to keep pushing on him as well. I really think this is his town play.In post 2619, Andresvmb wrote:Who, btw, is far more likely to be Town than the other player in the obvious pairing that contains Scum.

Pairing you with Datisi is a far more rational thing to consider.
How can you possibly conclude that VPB is Town. Out of Datisi/VPB, what makes you so sure you are on the right side of it?- VP Baltar

VPB has been up front trying to solve the game. Yes, he appears scummy when you push on him and he makes this big ruckus trying to discredit you. Look at a few of his town games. He seemingly does this every time he gets pushed. This is how he plays.In post 2626, Andresvmb wrote:

Yes, tunnel. Have you considered Datisi is the scum here? I sure spent a lot of considering if VPB is scum. Please reconsider for me, because I think Datisi is pulling the wool over our eyes here.- Andresvmb

@Cookie, a word of advice for future games. Just because you’re upset, it doesn’t mean that you should be (i) self-voting, and (ii) revealing your claim under limited pressure. You’re playing against the Town win condition by needlessly revealing information about your role.- Andresvmb

What do you mean have I not considered whether Datisi could be the Scum? Of course I have. I am 100% with you that one of Datisi/VPB is Scum 100% of the time. But I was saying that yesterday. Instead, we executed midway, because VPB insisted we did, and Datisi couldn't see the obvious. Which one of them is just bad, and which one is faking it, like I have said multiple times, is really difficult for me to figure out. So I am going to let the rest of the players figure it out. At this point, I feel like VPB has insulted me enough that I have no sympathy if they get executed or not.In post 2629, RLotus wrote:Yes, tunnel. Have you considered Datisi is the scum here?

You still diminished the claim. You can acknowledge the blatantly obvious. Datisi made the exact same point that we should not do any favors for Scum and execute there for example. So how do I know which one is genuine and which one isn't?In post 2632, VP Baltar wrote:In post 2559, VP Baltar wrote:

Yeah but I never talked about respect, and from the very beginning I said that I would watch how your slot evolved because I like you as a player. I don't feel like you've treated me fairly. But whatever, it is a game, and these feelings will die as soon as it is over. You also don't have to apologize. There's still a possibility you're Scum in my eyes and are playing to your win condition. And I can't resent that, as much as it annoys the crap out of me.In post 2635, VP Baltar wrote:

Look on balance, would I be surprised if RLotus flipped Scum? I really would. RLotus stopped making sense as Scum to me yesterday, and if Datisi flips Scum that would absolutely wash away any doubt I had. So obviously RLotus is out of the question. The way the wagon built on Dunn almost ensures that Dunn is not Scum. And Elements/DGB seemed sufficiently lost that I really don't think it's Scum.
That really does leave one of Datisi/VPB, maxwell, and Momrangal as the potential executions today. It is *possible* that Green Crayons is Scum, but frankly, I would wait and see what Datisi/VPB flip first before making that guess. If Datisi is Scum, frankly it makes it tricky. Would Green Crayons have used their Scum buddy as the target of their power? I presume that they actually Neighborized someone last night as well (I do think Green Crayons should claim it, actually). If VPB is Scum, then the odds suddenly rise. Green Crayons could have Neighborized Datisi of the pair to help pocket there, and Green Crayons did announce intent to execute midwaybear yesterday.
BattleMage's arguments with RTP, and Momrangal's horrible hammer yesterday (together with their nonsensical final post of the day) all make it likely that Momrangal is Scum. But what is maxwell doing? And why are they avoiding the inevitable Datisi / VPB dichotomy, and choosing not to comment on it? It is key to the game. And their Unvote of midwaybear still looks somewhat fishy, but Datisi focusing on that both implicitly and explicitly means that maxwell is probably not Scum if Datisi flips Scum.- Andresvmb

I mean, maxwell also makes sense as Scum to me so maybe it is Datisi. If Datisi flips Scum, flip maxwell.- Andresvmb

like i'm not saying it can't come from town, especially knowing there's precedent to that slot being utterly useless in other games, but it gets zero town points from me.- RLotus

If I was going to trust you RLotus and vote Datisi over VPB, it would be for one simple reason. The fact that VPB actually went back on their hard read on Dunn yesterday. I will concede that strategically, that made little sense for Scum. The play would have probably been to push Dunn through and avoid generating further evidence that could clear certain players.- Andresvmb

Andres, I'm considering giving you and Lotus co-ownership of my vote as a sign of trust today. Like if you can both agree where to vote, I'll put my vote there, even if it's me. You both can't be scum here, and if I do survive today, I need to not be fighting with you for the rest of the game. What's your take on that?YOUR AD HERE- Andresvmb

ok 1st thing i can confirm another person did get added into the hood. will leave it to green/them to claim it if they want.
do you still have what you were typing?In post 2585, maxwell wrote:I had been in the midst of typing up throughts on every player in the game off the top of my head when that hammer happened, I still think andres + Datisi + DGB are town, if I'm right on those the game isn'ttooterrible.
still feel like this is very much a false dichotomy.In post 2591, Andresvmb wrote:Look here's my thinking. Basically, one of {VPB, Datisi} is practically guaranteed Scum. We have one more mis-execution. VPB is very likely to be execution bait if he's Town, since everything he's pushed for has been dead wrong. And given the arguments VPB has put forth, I put decent odds that it's just Scum. So that's what we should do.
ooookay 2599 is a burning pile of trash and here is why:
- that is how i play. that is literally how i play. i probe and ask questions. sometimes those questions don't go anywhere because the responses don't strike my gut either way. and that's fine, i've gotten suspected over that shit before. but here's the thing: why hasn't lotus done some meta research on me to see that? he was suspecting baltar, then he ~did some meta~, figured his behaviour lines up with his town!meta, ok nvm. so why isn't he doing it here?
- "For example, when he was following VPB's votes onto Dunn and then to RTP, even though Datisi kept reitirating that he thought Italiano is scum." you know why i was doing that? (1) because people didn't seem that interested in italiano. i'm not a fool to keep my vote parked in places where i know it's not gonna go anywhere. (2) pressure is used to sort people. votes apply pressure. like i don't have to constantly have my vote on my strongest scumread, especially coupled with (1).
- yeah, i said it's more likely scum are off wagon than on and that i didn't feel like going there atm. then my scumread on midway got stronger bc he started acting the same way he did in his last scumgame where he handvawed my reasons away and then he was scum. i was not letting that slide. i love how my ~airy reason~ wasn't brought up at all yesterday while i was actually pushing midway
VOTE: lotus
also i love how in 2604 lotus is saying how baltar and i are constants on the two misyeets and therefore it's "pretty clear" we should be looked at when he was on italiano d1 and kept putting midway in his scumpool but gave some p weak reasoning to not jump onto him
also very much looking forward to the argument on how i'm not sorting or whatever it was.
i was wrong. he was acting like a scumfuck and he really reminded me of 2180.In post 2607, VP Baltar wrote:

andre: what's your point wrt diminishing the claim cookie made? it was a scummy claim. i've twice now seen scum fakeclaim doc to try to get out of shit. and like neither of us actually pushed it.
still think baltar is town. this still feels like his town!meta.
green also feels like town, plus the fact cookie died makes me think he's less likely to be scum.
momrangal is probably town, however i've heard that battle mage's scumgame is actually Not Shit, so should probably look at that to see if his entrance really was out of his scumrange.
andres' entrance today feels really genuine and i feel like he's far too tunnelled. but also getting some vague paranoia he and lotus are coming out today each pushing one of me/baltar.
dgb needs to contribute more, and i've talked about its voting patterns yesterday.
not liking maxwell's unvote from midway for reasons that were ??? to me.
dunnstral has some q's to answer from yesterday, still feel like he could easily be scum.
ok, it's 3am so off to bed in a bit, but should be around for a few still.I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again.
