I don’t have a confident read on his slot one way or another. I did like him calling Kitty wagon all town though but I don’t agree with his PoE.In post 623, Gamma Emerald wrote:

No you're L-1 because this game is incredibly winnable via POE thanks to how D1 played out, and the N1 nightkill can be used to deduce even further the most likely scum to make the kill there in the remaining players, and you're the best fit for that.In post 561, VFP wrote:So I'm E1 because scum do what they do every game and call me town.
What's there to lay out when it's player psychology analysis?In post 590, imaginality wrote:VOTE: Mastina because she talked a lot about her vote but a lot of the logic seemed to contain some "in this scenario I think it's most likely VFP" statements where the reason for thinking it's most likely VFP wasn't really laid out.
I am somewhat familiar with the way most of the players operate in this game when they are scum. What they are likely to do as scum, how they operate as scum, thoughts that are likely to occur to them as scum and thoughts that are unlikely to occur to them as scum.
If Flea was killed because cyrus is scum and cyrus's scumbuddy didn't tell them to not do this, the most likely player to fit that is VFP because VFP is the type of scum player that would analyze cyrus's choice and not see the downside, supporting it, more or less. He would look at it, and either be indifferent to it or more likely "sounds like a good idea" or something to that effect. Where he would see the upsides to the kill but not consider the downsides involved.
If Flea was not killed because cyrus is scum, the possibilities are Flea was killed to PR hunt or Flea was killed for general threat level.
If Flea was killed to PR hunt, the two players most likely to engage in PR hunting are Cupcake Butterfly and VFP. They are the players most likely to try and delve into PR speculation, of where the bids were, and try to kill based off of that. VFP has engaged in this type of behavior before so he tops the charts in this regard.
If Flea was killed for general townness factor between Flea being obvtown and being Flea...VFP is one of the players with the most familiarity with Flea, and the type of player to be most afraid of Flea, and the type of player most likely to approve of a kill on Flea for that reason.
But all of this relies on psychological profiling of the player in question. How do you explain a psychological profile? How do you give details of it? You can't exactly point to past scumgames for a one for one comparison because it's not a tell, there's enough variance in games that it's not going to be a one for one comparison. You can look at the general psychology and basic patterns, but that's about it, and it's those patterns that make me think VFP is the most likely to approve of a Flea kill here.
I can maybe explain the psychology behind the players who wouldn't make the Flea kill as to why they're unlikely to make it. But the unlikely-to-nightkill psychological profiles are pretty damn similar in how fact-lacking they are, so I genuinely don't know how to give more. You're asking me to create extra logic in a place where there's no extra logic to be had.- Something_Smart

Actually it was kinda funny. CB quoted two posts as his least favorite posts from VFP, but I like them both.
I also liked 561. Seems like an unlikely angle for scum to take, especially given that Kitty was scum.In post 507, Cupcake Butterfly wrote:In post 439, VFP wrote:Does redacted mean it was over 500?
These are the only two posts where I felt "ehh" on with VFP thus far in the dayphase, and even then they don't immediately feel like good reasons. Post 469 sounds performative in wanting to get credit for the Kitty lim so it's easier for them to target the outside-wagoners ~possibly~ to protect a scum-partner on-wagon... but this reality sounds both far-fetched and off very fickle reasoning that I wouldn't even think to assert.In post 469, VFP wrote:I was about to take credit for making scum crumble!
Then I realised my vote didn't go through.
VFP campaigned for, and Imaginality campaigned forFlea... I can't speak to a town or scum-specific trend of play here, but I don't think either VFP or Imaginality have tried to pocket me/Flea moreso than putting their eggs in a basket outside of their own. I like that good faith sign.meShame on a martyr claiming friends

It’s a dumb play to have your 2 top srs, players who actually voted scum. Seriously what townie thinks like this? I also think that’s kind of a wifomy argument. He could be absolutely dreadful town but his play is so extremely antitown.In post 635, Something_Smart wrote:I mean that seems like such a dumb play to do intentionally.
Especially when he already acknowledged he had the same wrong theory about Noraa.- Something_Smart

I mean, it's totally fair game to call him scum because his scumreads don't make sense. I think accusing him of ripping reads from his dead scumbuddy is pushing it, though.Shame on a martyr claiming friends

In post 456, VFP wrote:I'm also happy to put everyone on the Kitty wagon as town.
Scum looked dis organised or just absent to not move over to me or even try else where.
This including Flea vote make me think I may have possibly been wrong about VFP.In post 467, VFP wrote:I've only played with Nancy once (it was a Pooky Nora Nancy hydra) andI was Paranoid that they were bussing scum come late game.
I was wrong though and they flipped town.

I think it’s far more likely he wasn’t paying attention. I never actually implied that, all I said was it’s sus to me, that it’s the exact same srs. There’s 4 slots on Kitty wagon and Kyuku just happens to sus the same 2. My argument is if scum, he either wasn’t paying attention or he even possibly anticipated this kind of argument.In post 637, Something_Smart wrote:I mean, it's totally fair game to call him scum because his scumreads don't make sense.

The way he said, if green, he’s voting Distance absolutely pinged me though. I think Kitty wagon is pure and if Kyuku’s plan is to yeet the extremely unlikely non-existent busser, if I’m right, his srs will eventually probably include Imaginality and Gamma because he’s not looking elsewhere.- ssbm_Kyouko

I have reassessed - prior to the flip I thought Kitty was being pushed through as an easy plurality lim. After the flip and reassessment I think Kitty was a crossbus. I think you and distance both make sense as the crossbusser and furthermore, after reading the 3 of you in combined ISO I think you 3 make sense as a team, but there exists a world where you just decided to defend town!distance and take his side and bus Kitty for combined motive of getting towncred and potentially pocketing Distance.In post 610, Smoke and Mirrors wrote:Spoiler: quote wall
You egregiously misunderstood me then. I thought it sus that you would shading me when you were wrong on Kitty and I was right. Prior to flip, you were tr Kitty and sr me, so I would expected town!you to have reacrssed, so why haven’t you?
I'm still wondering though, what are your thoughts on why I voted for VFP at end of d1?She/They

Are you seriously saying there doesn’t exist a world where you’re deadass wrong about me and possibly Distance as well? Because that’s what I’m picking up from this. It seems to me that you’re not interested in properly parsing me and are only focused on trying to miselim me.In post 640, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:

If you’re scum and VFP’s town, then it would have been to save your buddy obviously. Like Idk but VFP has literally posted that I pretty much did the same exact thing in Happy Face which you can verify if you actually want to accurately solve me, do you? I played under the triple hydra Bear HUGs with Pooky and Noraa.In post 640, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:

It's not a coincidence. I already told you how I came to this conclusion. I ISOed the 3 of you and I believe this was a planned crossbus. I think the plan was for you to take credit for catching scum and for the two of you to mislim VFP today because you thought I would still want to do that based on my vote end of day 1.

You and distance have both missed direct questions from me, though Distance did answer when reprompted. You, however, are more focused on discrediting me as having "terrible reads" than answering the questions that would help me to sort you. If you were town and thought I had a terrible read you would be interested in answering my question, but instead you actively avoid it.
Pedit: wow you really made all those posts without answering my question again. It's not even embedded in a wall that time.She/They

Because you do and why are you ignoring what VFP said about me in Happy Face? Considering you were also wrong about Noraa, you would think town!you wouldn’t be blindly ignoring it.In post 645, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:

I just read through some of the game you posted. I dont see the parallels so far in reading your ISO. Is there something specific I'm missing?
I see you are still not reading or intentionally misunderstanding/ignoring my posts though.She/They
