Frankly, I just feel like my town reads are far stronger than Holiday's and I've given reasons for why I am town reading certain slots, essentially this entire game bar my first reads list.

I have been keeping everyone updated on where I stand this entire game, and I believe the evolution of my reads are super transparent, something I am actively trying to do as town. let everyone know where i stand on every single slot.

I have actively tried to connect with most slots, bar a few, and have tried to look at the game from their perspective.

I'm doing a lot of town work, and I believe it shows if you look in my post.

This doesn't make Holiday scum, but if you compare who's actually narrowing down who could be scum, I have done far more than Holiday.

the 2 most familiar players with me are voting alongside me after this day phase, and the players pushing me are basically just yelling on emotion or are players not doing much like geraint, and Osuka who was just willing to compromise, but ended on my to create the counterwagons, which was fine, and caused a lot of discussion. Kind of a + move on Osuka now that I just checked their ISO.

Well you’ve been pretty emotional yourself soo, a bit hypocritical to say that lol.
I said nothing BUT emotion I know I’m pissed off but there’s reason to what I think BEYOND that and yet that reason is being washed away.

If I became confirmed green, who of Andante/Tracer would you find scummier?

Just scum.
Claiming VT who wants to go after anyone who prefers to fade them over outing more roles, has horrible reads and trying to force a lim on a claimed PR.

Just scum.

In post 2109, Holiday wrote:All I’ll say is two protectives with one that can defend the other privately if it’s not outed for up to three nights makes no sense and I will laugh at anyone who listens to someone townblocking with A50 and Dwlee from the grave if I’m flipped.
This was a game with a Roaming Doctor + BG (I know.. Roaming means they can only protect the BG once), but it also had a Strongman Finder with the Mafia having a ONE SHOT Strongman.

My point is sometimes the designer has some strange idea about what is "balanced". If we do have a Doctor AND a BG we could be dealing with a Strongman shot for the Mafia, OR we it could be meant for the Simple Doctor to protect VTs and the BG to die for the PRs (and they can only save ONE of them).

I also played in a game where the Mafia had a BP member with the Town having NO KILLING ROLES AT ALL.

My point is: NEVER assume you understand what the designer intended for the setup to be before you actually see the whole setup

Balance?

What is this?

Also, BG with Simple Doctor is pretty believable.

Just vote April and give Jeff a choice

otherwise Jeff can have the excuse that he had no choice but to vote for Holiday since he couldn't hammer April.

I mean, logically speaking.. we mislim the VT and shoot the Doctor, and if BG is on them then we get them on N2 anyway. Right?? ;)

Every player who is helping April kill Holiday is being townread.

If you flip town, all of that will be noted and the game will continue and adapt.
Here's what I think: Holiday is Scum upset because she was caught for the wrong reasons. I don't even know why anyone TRs her reaction post-fake-hammer when virtually EVERY BLOODY PLAYER worth their salt would have checked to see if they were hammered for real. I may not care to check if it was someone else, but if it was me I'd sure as hell double check for myself. (I also knew it was a fake hammer because >I< remembered Enchant was voting there already. Now what does it tell you that the 53 y.o. monkey remembered it??)
