Would prefer not to have a bunch of late day one claims.
weird bc
a) tictac claimed unprompted
b) the pressure was to get more game related content under duress, not to force a claim
c) catboi hasn't claimed either so do you think toog is town then?
I wouldn't say I think toog is town, but he could be town.
and catboi can't be town?
can you point out the points that make it so catboi cannot be town?

i think toog could be town obviously but when scum are playing the "don't do things I do as town" scumplay I can only go and point at the absence of said behavior. It is, however highly reliable.
I strongly believe catboi to be scum, yes.

The buuny wagon. Constant AtE. Enough for me on day 1. I don't think catboi is as indespensible as everyone else does, I guess.

what about the bunny wagon?
The AtE that he has shown actually leans him town and to call it scum indicative is, frankly, very tunnely.

Have you considered you are viewing catboi through the lens of wanting him to be scum and not actually genuinely evaluating him? because that is what it seems like.

many of us saw bunny as scummy at one point or another. if bunny was so squeaky clean to not deserve scrutiny theyd have never been wagoned - but the fact they were not pushed through is also significant in that they have been able to show towniness as well.

I'd bet bunny flipping scum before catboi did if this was singleball.

How does using ate make you town? The buuny wagon was obviously trying to protect catboi or wallflower, the two leading wagons at the time. That points to scum-catboi or scum-wallflower.

That's frankly, ridiculous theory and completely ignores any level of context.

And the AtE was so strong and came off as genuine that the only world I see catboi scum there is if wallflower is their partner and catboi was genuinely mad at a gamethrowing partner and was leaning into the feelings to get that through.

Frankly your reasoning is extremely weak and tunnely and you are ignoring the big picture that there are 8 different groupscum and you could very well be derailing a wagon on a different scum person just because you want your tunnel to go through.

I didn't say I'm totally unwilling to vote toog. I just don't think it's a good idea and I think the less claims the better.

@The Keeper if you seriously claiing Innocent Child then why wouldn't we eliminate enchant?

Overall I think Toog has shown a contrast to his town meta in this game - whether or not that is because of factors in this game, namely starts with F ends with leaf, is yet to be decided because there is a lack of town indicative content from the slot and thus that places them low in objective towniness ergo an optimal wagon to force pressure.

Wagoning is not about "forcing claims" and neither should there be fear that a townie will claim. Solving a slot is more valuable than scum learning the identity of a potential PR.

In post 4041, Nashville Dreams wrote: Motive can tell alignment. The sheer number of times catboi has been counterwagoned suggests he's scum. My play read on him is town. The last I checked our hydra notes, she had catboi scum. Her opinion (at least at the time) plus the votes means I need to reset and check if the votes warrant the belief that scum were shopping for any not catboi wagon.

Even if my gut instinct is right,
repeated counterwagons to town
in multiball suggest catboi is defending one if not both teams hard.
Who is the town in this scenario? If it's referring to you, this analysis doesn't really help anyone who's not you - what does the number of times you've been counterwagoned tell us about your alignment? Or MonkeyMan's alignment (who you originally used this same argument on?)
Context. Catboi wagons were discussed.

I don't really see why I should be forced to take a stance here (well, I understand why you would want me to, since if I'm scum it makes me take a stance, but I'm not, so I'm not going to make one up). Players like catboi are not people that I expect to be able to have a confident Day 1 read on.
So you've spent the entire day voting not catboi and catboi is a nullread?

Who do you expect to have a read on?
I keep Townreading you... then you keep sinking the read with stuff like this.

23 players in a game. We're not all going to get Q4 or even Q3 items. People are going to get Q0 sometimes.

This is a BAD angle and either I've seriously pissed off Titus recently or there's a huge shift in playstyles lately.
Your lack of voting pisses me off.
