I think we should consolidate on one of HEM/Tenebro to push pressure and advance game state rather than splitting

so which one would you like to do today dear?

ari, do you think both me and skitt are town?

pedit: if you'd asked me like half an hour ago, i would've said tenebro
but if there is precedent for monkey playing scum like *waves hands* this, i think that's something i want to explore first
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.”

wow
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Clearly my main suspects are not of interest to anyone, and I see the shift in momentum as sweeping something under the rug. To that end, VOTE: GeneralWu.

I'm leaning towards you/skitter being town/town but I'm not confident enough in my abilities to be anywhere near 100% on that read atp

Her energy level leans towards town for her and mostly I read her by figuring out if she's flagging later down the line because she doesn't have a lot of endurance as scum down the line.

On his merits, i am indifferent. It concerns me, however, that his attackers and my attackers are basically the same people.

I don't know how I feel about tene voting Wu. Like I still think Wu is scummy but if tene is scum and thinks there's about to be a momentum change hoping on Wu makes sense as scum play.

About to be a momentum change? That already happened. You went after Wu, and suddenly the interest in me spiked.

I don't like the way Datisi focused on nitpicking rather than the substance of Nero Cain's argument.
have you decided you're just gonna mindlessly tunnel every post i make this game? i logged in during my break, saw that nero was supposedly townreading people that hadn't posted, i asked him about it. do you think "nitpicking" that makes me scummy?

it's alright, i don't have too much free time right now either.

for whoever wants to weigh in on this - am i tunnelled on tenebro? like, posts , , , , feel like specifically looking for scum!motivation from me / things to attack me over rather than actually thinking through my posts and drawing conclusions that way. i *want* to say i'm still feeling as sure in the read as i was an hour ago, but like, something something weak at emotion bad at mafia etc.
I don't think you're tunneled - I have similar feelings about Tenebro's posting being scummy
And none of them paid any mind to what you said about the esteemed general.

STD has Wu as the 3rd scummist. But Dats and Ari are straight-up ignoring, yes.

its almost like posting lots of fluff in lieu of content is a scummy thing to do. Ofc, Fire is saying that it's just their playstyle in general.

I did not interpret his list as ordered, since if it was, he voted me rather than the person he listed as scummiest.

Not really. I didn't like the "lol" thing, but other than that I don't see why everyone is so up in arms about him.

I skimmed wu's 4 completed games on site - they are all newbies (2town/2scum) and I think he's more fluffy as town than as scum.

also I'm not really keen on scumreading someone for being fluffy this early as opposed to like actively scummy people.
