This reaction seems a little overblown given we already knew Pooky was a contestant who was sabotaged, Cephrir was the only unknown.

Also, Pooky didn't seem as universally contestant read as Taly so there may be something in his reads (or Taly's reads) that's responsible.

To relitigate:

Somebody said that Gamma was trying to get into the chair
I said that they already had a chance to get into the chair if they wanted to
Somebody said that they wouldn't self vote into the chair because they wanted to look town

Even if point 3 is correct, that doesn't make anything tmi (or even wrong... the first point never said anything about looking town, the third point expanded on assumptions that were unsaid

Did Galron/Ydrasse read the event rules? It's clearly described as a duel to the death involving a gun, why vote yourselves in?

Most vocal stagehand or suspicions from Pooky I can see are on Gamma, Dunnstral, and petapan. He also supported a S-S theory for the two leading wagons.

In post 2010, Galron wrote:I'm extremely frustrated. I feel like I'm playing a completely different game, and I'm getting angry. At myself for not seeing what others are.
Hmm.

Players stating they're frustrated and angry over showing that frustration and anger over their posts tends to be a stagehand-indicative thing.

You can tell contestants are just from what they're posting, but stagehands need to explicitly tell you if they're looking for an advantage from it.

I'm not interested in voting for Ydrasse or Gypyx. I don't like Infinity voting for Gypyx on the basis Gamma contestant means Prism more likely to be a stagehand.

Infinity, you've made this assumption twice now that the people pushing Gamma the most are more likely to be a stagehand now that Gamma is probably a contestant - first with me, and now with Prism. The problem with that is the fact stagehands knew how the chair in the first phase would work, and that it comes with a heavy risk of the chaired person simply OMGUS executing their pusher.

I'm sure stagehand Prism would have some more reservations of pushing Gamma so aggressively had she considered this factor, which I'm sure she would've.

VOTE: Galron

The shot on Galron being sabotaged does suggest Galron may be a stagehand also. Stagehands only own 2 of those, so following occam's razor killing the player who was saved due to it does seem like a good idea.

As for the second player in the duel, possibly Dunnstral largely due to Pooky's theory that he brought with him to the grave.

I didn't have time to express thsie earlier; the most stagehand part of Gamma's whole monologue were probably these 2 posts:
In post 1722, Gamma Emerald wrote:Well this is an interesting position. Looks like both the minority stances were right in a sense, funnily enough. My gut inclination is to shoot in my SRs but I ain’t gonna fuck around and find out. I want to consider my reads again with the truth of the chair in mind.
In post 1751, Gamma Emerald wrote:Well that was unfortunate but I think inevitable. I have an idea about why Pooky was selected to die. It’s getting factored into my new decision though, so I’ll hold onto it until I’m ready to make the call.
These reactions seem quite muted for a relatively emotive person like Gamma, from what we've seen from the rest of this game.

Despite my qualms, the amount of effort and being top poster by a long shot is quite unlikely to come from a stagehand, though. Contestants dominate that statistic a lot. I may just dislike his erratic playstyle.

ulyana, how do you feel about Galron after your exchange with him?

The production has been amazing so far by the way. It almost seemed like Pooky and Cephrir
really
were being electrocuted in those chairs. I love how they played along and writhed around, and I had the burnt chicken on standby of course.

I'm mindmelding strongly with
Saber
. I think it's best I lean in and refrain from suspicion here. I did notice that she hasn't touched my recent posts on her.

I think I'd prefer
peta
over
Dunn
at the moment. I did not like his interaction with
Galron
at all.

good point although we don't really know how much scum knew about this. it at least tempers my read a little bit

i didn't think you were scum for pushing gamma per se more that i felt you should've re-evaluated but you didn't

just gonna point out that even though i townread gamma at this point we technically we haven't really seen anything that disproves s/s

if they were actually svs wagons picking your partner and then sabotaging the flip is a great way to make you look unaligned in that situation

Do you find a benefit of the doubt with slots like
Dunn/Peta/Galron
?

That sounds like scum couldn't be eliminated day one though. Kinda unfun
