ah, I see -- I definitely remember the term 'bookie' coming up at some point though in that game though so that was where my mind went first

I guess I maybe misphrased that -- it's not that I think you're avoiding giving hard reads, it's that the reasoning for those reads feels kind of superficial and like you're avoiding giving concrete thoughts? like your objections to them seem to be mostly... 'procedural' and I'm not convinced those are good reasons to SR people. It's like you're trying to seem like you're giving legit reads but instead you're just pointing out mistakes/bad town play by people and then going 'I SR them for this' which doesn't make a lot of sense to me?

Like in it looks like you're acting like you find SCP suspicious over thinking bookie was something else but that's not an actual reason to find them suspicious, that's just them being wrong about something

This is still weird to me too fwiw, but I don't think it's completely implausible as a balance condition for a town vig especially if there might be other gated town kill roles floating around?

I still think it's more possible for him to be scum who decided to fake claim vig than actual vig.

I still think we don't want FL to be around in the late portions of the game.

I still think FL being eliminated is better than any potential vig beneifit.
It makes perfect sense. It makes him less likely to shoot into the monastery.

its d2. If he's still around by d6 then it's maybe something we can talk about but eliminating d2 to keep a player from being around late game is dumb.

I thnk his gate makes sense.

An extra kill role in a game with limited killing power makes some sense to me. I know this is outguessing the mod.

I don't think the way you are looking at the probability of him rolling a vig is how role distribution works.
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 he is town and the other monastary player is scum why shouldn't he shoot them? Seems like a conflict of interest.

Granted, I think his CSF reasoning is...bizarre to say the least, and it's not
IMPOSSIBLE
that he rolled scum and decided to fakeclaim vig but the extra kill is helpful for town. Even if he were roleblocked that's still unblocking a potentially useful role.

Yeah his push on me is pretty bad I think?

And with no other kills last night, I don't really buy that it's a vig over scum a kill. like yes, I do know that scum can only kill 2/3 nights and there might be protectives, but I just think it's unlikely

okay so why are you scumreading me? Is it for the same reason?

And I went back to check, his vote was in , which was before yours

Yeah I saw that he claimed at night and also claimed to have crumbed D1, but I don't think that's out of his scumrange, so it doesn't really change my mind that much.
