Could be. But it could be that Gamma's town and scum were perfectly happy having that wagon. I think the latter is more likely. Having me as a counter makes sense. Although I haven't analyzed it, I think it probably gives those shy to vote Gamma an outlet. You could probably replace me with a few others and get a similar outcome.
In post 1635, Galron wrote:If Gamma's scum, then good on everyone for spotting it so quickly. Or it could be that Gamma's town, and people were just anxious to get Event 1 out of the way. Or it could be something else. Who knows. But I've never been in a large game where the first wagon sailed through. And bonus, there's scum at the end. That doesn't make sense to me.
Okay maybe I tilted at the first sentence of the second post because while that feels way off from thinking it’s more likely that I’m town, the back half of it seems in line with that philosophy.
I still think if Galron meant about voting me solely because it was between me and him he should have voted closer to when I voted him though.

If you're asking me: Voting on the counterwagon, what else? Not going to look too closely where currently (pre-flip isn't very useful).

What do you think the scum has been doing this game?

Matadoring Gamma's wagon.
i'm gonna take a rain check and come back to these, i'm sorry, i just can't string together words coherently rn
but will circle back and respond when i can

~
more broadly since we're at a pretty game-critical point, i prefer galron over gamma. i think they can be svs, but i do think galron is almost certainly s and would prefer him
i'm very underwhelmed by dunn but don't know if that ai for him, also think it would be a disappointing way to end the day if we ended up flipping him while we have this gamma/galron thing going on

hopefully i'll be able to say more abt this later

pedit i'll come back to that one too

Why is anyone voting for Galron over Gamma after seeing this post?

The day's approaching stagnation and people want everyone to vote within Gamma/Galron.
Gamma votes for Galron despite thinking it's a misflip.
Galron does the same thing, yet Gamma thinks it's incredibly suspicious for Galron to do essentially the same thing he has?

I see it as Stagehand-Gamma pulling out whatever he can to convince players to vote Galron over him.

I misread, what I thought was a smoking gun was just off timing. It’s still sus as hell though.

I'd have to look, but based on my recollection from the past few pages. Well, I don't want to go there because I can't really articulate it right now, and I don't think I have an educated view to be objective about it. I guess she's probably fine, but I can't commit to that.

I tend to type my thoughts and often change direction midstream. It kinda helps develop things for me to have what I've been thinking in black & white. I say that but a lot of times I just put down the conclusion without the reasoning behind it which frustrates people.

I also need to sign off soon, but I'm going to reiterate that I find Gamma's shift of stance on Galron to be very Stagehand-indicative. He's gone from being stubborn on not voting Galron despite competing with him, to being suspicious of him over this one post:

is a good person to chair imo but it's partially why he's been so absent. I don't think I'd get much from his flip. He feels LHF. Does someone have a meta-take?
My meta take on this is Dunn is lurky as scum and PR and there are no PRs this game so...

In that case I really hadn't noticed. I knew Saber was favoring executing gamma over me, but that's about it. It's difficult for me to keep track of everyone's position.
