If you're willing to see that VP is town, then VP might not be the automatic elimination. We're starting to talk about the game as a whole. It's a long shot but we have scum in my pool.

The scum had the misfortune of Titus being absurdly accurate on day one.Really quite impressed by that.~Drixx

You're letting Titus win the game by herself.Good luck now I guess.You have no chance to win.~Tywin

I don’t think VP is town but I am not sure if he’s the right elim.

Who else is he truly pushing? What has he shown progression on in his thoughts toward the game? What utility has he provided to town?
if nero thinks your maf then i think he is playing just like how i would expect town nero to. from what ive read, town nero tbh isn't very high utility to town except that he has p good reads sometimes. but he just kinda sits there and yells that his reads are maf. he's independent and doesn't really work with people, and he is very stubborn and hard to move. but maf nero does work with people, he compromises, he tries to appeal, and he takes the easy mislims when he can.

he also does have other reads, he thinks titus is maf (which is +++town nero btw), he's talked about his opinions on the progression of game state with malc, galron, april, titus, and others
Is this first hand meta you have or you're going on what???

I'll freely admit, I don't have Nero meta since I probably have one or two way old games with him somewhere.

As far as his read progressions, I think you're reaching quite a bit there. His opinion seems to adjust with what's popular, or what he sees as convenient to push the idea that I'm scum. That is the safe and central point he has not evolved past for about 150 pages now. That's stagnation in my book

I pushed Wu yes but I didn't ignore the conflicting evidence like you did. He was an EZ push and after Math/HEM claimed out you hard pushed the was the easiest wagon. Also your "Nero pushed Malc" is the dumbest thing I've ever seen.
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.

If that was a slip in the way I believe you mean it, I would not have used the word "scum." I would have said "oh, Galron is our traitor." But it wasn't one.

this also feels like a cop-out. Just b/c there were some town that voted on Malcolm doesn't mean you have to be town.

The three players that you pushed at the begining of the day (and last night) were all ppl that were voting you. You only added eyes this morning b/c his wagon popped up.

The majority of scum were on the Malcolm wagon yesterday and you know it.

I think the scum were likely split between the wagons, but more inclined to think on me given I am louder and doing more solving.

And, yes, the point I raised is a fatal flaw in your argument because they are provable exceptions to the very bad logic you're using. This isn't a newbie game, so don't expect me to take it on your philosophy being "scum vote townies!" when I just showed you that's not the case universally

I just find it weird to have someone agree with me after all this resistance

Like April and Galron would be my top two elims

I'm not going to convince scum that they are scum so I really don't care about your opinion but I mean you are basically using the same argument, that I should be flipped if you are town.

I've already explained why I think you are the most likely scum in the hood and it isn't based in "he's voting me" as much as the PoE points there.

I guess let’s ask this:

Who doesn’t think VP/Nero is SVT or TVS?
