The only one that looks hard to understand is the one he talked about as a rolling pin with one handle and you described as a pressurized gas in your first post. If the mod told you it's right, then I guess it is. I just have a hard time visualizing whatever andres is describing (though his description of mine was also weirdly more complicated than the traffic light and turn signals it was).

Fwiw, I never checked my bomb description with the mod. I didn't even realize getting that part wrong was a possibility until I checked my expert answer and was told it was accurate with what was described, rather than a simple 'that is correct'

That was a funny description but I knew what he meant because it was so distinct

Fwiw if you look up pressurized gas you'll probably be able to understand why he described it that way

Oh like a gas canister. Got it.

So yeah, unless he completely transposed an item placement, which seems unlikely, it doesn't seem like he messed up.

This part pinged my gut as a little TMI-like with the read on someone I don't feel like has been neither scummy nor really townie, even checking the slot before them doesn't really give me a lot to work with.
Where's the TMI unless I'm bussing mala here?
What I mean is with how my read is on them I don't understand the scumread on them. I really don't understand the scumread on it is where it smells TMI-ey. And your read on them is mentioned often but not explained to how you came to this conclusion. Although this is with most people on this wagon where its not explained to me why they're on Malakittens, it smells a little you have something, but looking back, I might just be completely wrong (Woo, potentially more really bad reads for this game) looking back at other posts.

Though I ask, what is your case on Malakittens?
In post 2912, StrangeMatter wrote:And so we chose to wagon, instead of maybe doing the more logical conclusion for any of the 5 people on Malakittens right now, to say actually squeeze or prod content out of them?

Conflicted here. I have been pleading for counterwagons, but it doesn't make sense to eliminate outside of the three people who logically lied about their votes. We have the start of two counterwagons already in Dwlee and Strange.

That's part of the reason I'm not scumreading the manuever. I abused this persistence as scum when we had a false clear on the scum in the hood. It wasn't mandated there was scum in the hood, but same principle. On the other hand, I was scum and used it as a free pass to weakly push my buddies knowing it would fail. So that's why I'm conflicted. It's arguably a good play, but that doesn't mean scum can't do it too.

think scum walked into that bomb session with the plan of blowing up Andres - when bomb expert is mafia its basically a strongman kill so this was planned out ahead of time.

I do think Dwlee made a good point that it doesn't make sense for them to bus Mala for cred and then openwolf a bomb explosion because now they can never endgame - unless SM is also scum and they're pulling a double bus. But even then it feels like a very shit exchange for them.

In post 3627, StrangeMatter wrote:@GuiltyLion, why do you think that Dwlee wouldn't bus Malakittens? In fact, I really want you to explain your Dwlee townread.
I am feeling reactive to the way this question is phrased - I don't believe I ever said anything about whether Dwlee would or wouldn't bus Mala? Rather I just don't think Dwlee is scum, so therefore I don't think they bussed.

I've played a handful of games with Dwlee across alignments and I don't think this vibes to me like their scumgame. I think the confidence they had in Frog scum on D2 to the point of gloating about it isn't as natural or easy to fake as scum. I think their D1 scumread on Andante isn't a position scum is likely to take. I think their responses to Pooky's pressure was very townie in nature, and I haven't really felt them being disingenuous at all D2 or D3 at a time when it feels like a lot of people were throwing shade at them. And I think if they wanted to blow up the bomb on Andres, they wouldn't go through the rigamarole of giving bad intel and then clarifying that bad intel afterwards

Okay so re: me resubmitting and why I think any paranoia that I changed my answers just doesn't make sense

So the labels I initially said were to press 3 buttons in order: Toxic, then Gas Under Pressure, then Oxidising.

The buttons I then clarified that Andres should press had the following (paraphrased) description:

Button 1: Skull and crossbones

Button 2: A paddle with a handle on the right

Button 3: ball with a fire above it and line below it

If one has seen those hazard labels you'll recognize these:

Spoiler: COSHH labels
Image


Now if you look at the labels and descriptions they match up.

I feel like if Strange was genuinely paranoid about me changing my answers she would have cross referenced the buttons and the labels herself or have said something to the effect of "when I have time I'm going to look at these" but she didn't.
I prefer they, thanks :)

Pooky, Andy, enchant prob town?

Misty still scum
