Are the two worlds mutually exlusive? (Could I be scum and 8ball)?
You dont feel like scum so yes

I dont think scum go for that route so early but if you flipped scum I could consider it
We'd know if Taly were the 8-ball, as the rules clearly say the 8-ball will flip as 8-ball if eliminated. And besides, whether or not the mod announces it, it'll be obvious by whether scum get a kill that night.

All of which is to say the "if you flipped scum I could consider it" seems more likely to me to come from scum talking to town than from town. Scum talking to town know the first part of the statement ("if you flip scum" can't occur so are more likely to give a careless consequence "I could consider it", compared with town who believe it's a genuine possibility to consider.

VOTE: Wisdom

In other news, Taly's recent posts make me lean town on him, seems like genuine reasoning/questions and the miscount of the votes on him seems more likely to come from two than scum. Also #78 where he raises the possibility he's scum rather than 8-ball.

I'm not really following the above but it seems like you're saying something smart but it's just not clicking for me. Can you go a little more bite-sized?

I think it’s saying that if we flip Taly we’ll know whether Taly is the eight ball and scumWisdom tried to fake uninformed about something townWisdom would actually know.

You're right, I don't consider Taly flipping scum a real possibility which is why I didn't run the simulation in my head and didn't realize he'd flip 8ball

I get the beginning - the ending is where I'm thrown off. Why is this a town v/s scumWisdom information thing?

1. "if you flipped scum I could consider [that you might be 8-ball]" is something I think scum (talking to a townie who they know won't flip scum) are more likely to say than an uninformed townie would, so I voted Wisdom for it

2. Taly wouldn't be as likely to make the "am I more likely 8-ball or could I be scum" comment as scum (he'd be happy to be read as 8-ball), so I townread him for that plus recent posts in general

That's almost, but not quite, entirely unlike
tea[/] what I meant.

Wisdom admits not considering Taly as scum. So it's up to the rest of you whether you think that's because Taly is so obvtown, or because Wisdom is scum and knows Taly is town.

Was there a typo here? I need you to clarify

As for whether I think
Alisae
is town? I have a pretty half-baked read on them that I'm rectifying.

This doesn't feel historically like what I've encountered as scum from them. However, their recent post begs to differ.

I also doubt they're a partner to
Hiraki
, who I do currently scumread. I doubt that scum will find themselves on the same wagon much in this setup. My wagon doesn't have the traction for them to eliminate me. Plus
Alisae
needs to try much harder to take me down :wink:

The slot has been inoffensive. I'm watching them.

For context, I have hydra'd with
Ali
as both alignments and have played with them solo when they've been both alignments. So they're right up there with
the worst
in terms of my familiarity in mafia.

Oh this may be unclear

I mean that
Alisae
would probably disagree that I lean town on them via meta. Not that I suddenly suspect them anymore than usual.
