Of course, shit went down when I was in V/LA after days of nothing notable happening.

If
Titus
,
Taly
and
mastina
form such a firm townbloc how come we haven't managed to hit scum yet? Starting to doubt my earlier hunches.

ɀefiend
, whom did you target last Night?

Uh

1. Wtf with that lim. I didn't even get to the damn thread from the time I posted that vote before the hammer. That wasn't a "kill this" vote. I demand swift justification for every other vote on that wagon.

2. Waiting for
Zefiend
to post before I make any judgments about last night.

3. Why
Dwlee
and not someone on the
Flea
wagon?

I don't have much to add on top of what has already been stated.

I'm kind of agreeing with
Titus'
D2 assessment right now.

I think scum is most likely distancing or jumping on top of vocal town's wrong assertions.

Considering that
Titus/I
have both started the vote of a mislim and that my perspective is aligning with her D2, helps reaffirm my townread there. Like a delayed mindmeld.

Just because the eliminations are bad doesn't mean the PoE itself is. We could have a misread in more universal townreads but assessing who is town in the current pool would be a better direction to solve than "you're not town enough, die" or "everything we know is wrong."

I really don't think we have more than 1 scum maximum in
Titus/Taly/mastina/House/Greeting
.

Tbh my reads have not changed much.

The worst thing is that I lack the patience to deal with the growing doubtcast on my slot.

I don't feel teamwork in this thread.

If anyone feels the same, tell me how to rectify that.

That's a tall order, Taly, and an unfair burden to place on someone when you can't figure it out yourself.

Just wait until Tuesday or whenever for Zefiend to show up so he can tell us who he jailkept. If you want to run up people in the meantime, fine.

You don't get to not take responsibility for placing a vote. Everyone knows that every time they vote it could result in a lim.

I odn't know why they wouldn't kill the jailkeeper actually. Seems like the more optimal play there.

I jailed Scorpious. Isn't there a discrepancy between what Scorpious claimed to submit and what he claimed?
In post 60, Scorpious wrote:Man, I am so lame. Everyone asked for all these exotic roles and I’m here, like yeah! Role blocker!!

Admittedly this is my first u pick

I picked
Ninja
JOAT
Roleblocker

With a town preference

I’m so boring
In post 1506, Scorpious wrote:
In post 1505, Enchant wrote:7+ days passed and no one decapitated, wtf stale game.

VOTE: Scorpious
I agree, watching house feed his ego is getting old.

I’m a 1-shot Neapolitan and I was blocked last night looking at Zefiend..
I jailed him on the off-chance that he was somehow telling the truth, and is another town PR, because I figured that scum might be inclined to shoot claimed PRs. However, they might be afraid of myself being protected.

So is it more likely that there is a discrepancy in Scorpious' claims and was the NK target last night,

or is it more likely that Scorpious was chosen to perform the NK?

Given how bad most of Scorpious' votes have been all game, then IF he is scum, I would think that the scum team would judge him to be on shakiest ground, and therefore least risk in performing the NK.

Meg vote --> bad
Cheeky vote --> bad
Another Meg vote --> bad again
Enchant vote --> lazy but fine
Dwlee vote --> I don't understand it, maybe fine
zefiend vote --> bad
flea vote --> bad

In my opinion Scorpious is not a prime NK target, since if he were actually telling the truth, his powers are used up and now from scum's perspective he would just be a Named VT. I think even if you toss out Taly and I from NK pool because scum is scared of protection, there are better targets than Scorpious.

So I am inclined to believe Scorpious was sent to perform the kill and would be willing to vote there.
Taly
, I find it discouraging that you feel a lack of teamwork. I am here and can work with you. If you can help me flesh out some town-reads that would be great because right now nobody else is screaming town to me.

If you wonder why I think you're scum, this post is an excellent example.

If he flips green, this post reeks of TMI. Scorpious is not at all the obvious nk last night.

^Pretty much this.
In post 1586, ɀefiend wrote:I am inclined to believe Scorpious was sent to perform the kill and would be willing to vote there.
I agree, but the reason I voted Dwlee is,
1: I believe that Scorpious, whatever scum role he is (goon, PR), is the most expendable member of the scumteam;
2: I believe that the scumteam knew Scorpious was blocked last night and knew he was going down;
3: As such I believe that Dwlee's vote of Scorpious before the result was scum-indicative as TMI.

That said, I'll still settle for a guaranteed scum elimination over a probable scum elimination even if said guaranteed scum elimination is worthless to the scumteam and said probable scum elimination likely still has a use to the scumteam. Because guaranteed scum elimination > probable scum elimination.

(I'm not voting Scorpious because I'm letting players get a chance to check in.)

On what? The call for more cohesion or having people justify their flash votes that had very little context?

I can't look at that wagon and not believe there are 1, maybe 2 of the 3 scum on it that were in the PoE and wanted to take a shot at a miss.

D2 was riddled with 1v1s that excluded

, so why did faer get eliminated so quickly?

My answer? Scum.

Of course but I didn't have a crystal ball that this would end up in an elimination in less than 3 hours after my vote. You're still not answering my prompt. I don't think what I'm asking is unreasonable in the slightest.

What you're asking is for someone to come up with a plan for you to bring the town together. That's a pretty audacious request. That being said, no one seems to want to change their POE, which means there's some serious fuckery going on. The best way to approach that is to reevaluate.
