Funny, that's what i was thinking abt ur vote

And no, but i dont think we need to flip him today

if andante is town, shouldnt there be possibility of scum roleblocker
unless ur trying to say that since she did not get roleblocked she assumed there is doc

like, if you had thought cakez was a better wagon, why didn't you do that *before* midway outed his pick

pedit: hmm? i haven't moved my vote. i'm standing behind it. you're the one who swapped onto a different wagon immediately, tf you on about?
I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”

I want to commit to one of mena/midway/cakez here - but none of them scream scum to me other than pooky's posts which i could easily be clowning myself on.

i'm like 99% sure andante is town here and midway voting there feels like a lolvote to antispew because theyre locked into being in the awkward position of a claimed doc.

cakez as far as im concerned if theyre hanging on the low of the PoE they aren't going to be useful as town anyways due to their habits of never catching up late game so I'm thinking of trusting this PoE and consolidating here: VOTE: Cakez

Maybe catboi is better idk
i think catboi has a towny train of thought even if there are points of it that feel wrong.

there was something I noticed the other night where it was like their thought process is consistent with having a stance that is traceable from d1 and I think that's extremely town indicative. i can't really explain it because its subtle but maybe if you ISO him it'll be clear.

I will say that whoever is scum is doing a wonderful job matching the pace needed to avoid scrutiny if my PoE is wrong.

I do think my current solid townreads contains at most 1 scum though. If not, well, I'll be around to reeval later lmao

I... am not going to pretend that I can read him at this stage. His scumgame is pretty smooth.

I think it's probably not a great idea for us to be paired given he has kind of a similar paranoia of me.

ok so i actually read the setup info and scum indeed can communicate during the pregame phases if I'm reading this correctly - and thus people with duplicate numbers are likely unpaired / less sus. idk i thought i had a brainwave but then realized that scum can't see what numbers town chooses so its like only a mild advantage lol but at the very least like same numbers are unlikely together.

midway, can you tell us what your philosophy was behind choosing the doc?

We ran the stats in the early game. It doesn't actually lead to a reasonably large bias toward higher draft slots being scum.

Let me go grab a funny post from the previous run

But if it aged poorly(your implication) - after the fact that midway claimed doc -> clearly that means you consider them town, correct?
