Thats so fake though. Math and Hem are either masons or scum together. You don't need to reacess.
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.

VCs posted by mods dispute your post fire.

There’s been wagons on Datisi if there’s been some on Wu.

This is just bad posting
where's the VC that has someone getting past E-5 besides monkey? im talking about wagons that had the possibility of turning into a lim. i don't think there were many of those based on the general suspicions of people at the time

I mean i suppose you can read ir that way if you like, but that's not really how i would describe the gamestate, esp given that i dont think.either dats or wu were in danger of getting flipped at the time

Hem was scummy
I actually didnt think your slot was scummy, but they were Distasteful and quite a few people found them scummy (tho i think people were conflating 'Gross Posting from a common decency standpoint' with 'scumposting')

Datisi on e-5 for 300+ posts is a wagon.
E-4 is arbitrary cutoff

It’s possible Datisi was e-4 during those posts but it’s beside the point to check.

Wagons were happening

They were not getting policied, people were voting them since they scumread them

I just think a lot of people were scumreading them because the posts were distasteful without realizing that the scumread was stemming from there

Some probably. But considering north of half the game moved from Datisi/Wu to HEM/me this means scum also did it. Thus implying one or more Datisi/Wu scum
Otherwise scum get brownie points for stopping the wagons they didn’t take.

Datisi/Wu are more threats than inactives.
This movement doesn’t make sense unless one of them is scum.

On play, yes
If he's actually a mason then sure he's town but based on the info i had at the time fo their fight, he was significanfly scummier

There's a reason both of your slots were getting wagoned...
That's not what he asked and it doesn't align with the readslist you just posted.

i don't see the point in not believing the claim at the moment

but I will say that crumbing (in the least secretive way possible) in an entry post and then literally 25 minutes later being like "im mason, look at my crumbs for proof" and then "oh i had to claim because both masons were wagoned QUICK VOTE THESE SPECIFIC OTHER PEOPLE THERE'S NO TIME" is hilarious

i especially like the "hum de dum I'm gonna go hunt scum in a VC" and then coming back with "oh NO me and my mason partner are the lead wagons?? whaaat??" for extra dramatic effect

Ok, i still disagree with this assessment

Yes given a game this large there were probably scum on dats/wu, and there were also scum on hem/you

I dont think the wagons 'purposefully' moved from the first two to the latter, or the fact that scum moving implies that they were leaving former scum wagons

Fun fact: i was just in a game with a 4way eod scramble. I spent quite a lot fo time reading into wagon movements and trying to figure out who was the scum getting saved there. All 4 people were town. Scum were doing absolutely nothing at the time

Sometimes there really isnt anything deeper, and i think you're lacking context on jow things developed and this is one of those times

I didn’t know the VC or have read. It’s always standard to crumb your mason partner minimum.

Again if you have issues with how I play save it for post game. We’re not elimming me or Monkey ever so this is spam.

Skitter confbiasing on me isn’t new if she’s town lol

I kinda am just going to ignore her tbh
She’s either scum or doing scum’s job.

Like I get if you disagree with the play but I feel it necessary.

I think we should elim Wu barring a good reason not to.

I'm not gonna retrofit my reads and day his play wasnt scummy at the time because someone claimed masons eith him later

You were literally two weeks ago in a game where town fakeclaimed masons with scum, being in a mason claim doesnt absolve you of your play
