Lots of little things. Potential greeting tell, the "suspicions" he had on you when you first entered the game look fake and borderline partnered, especially with how quickly that fell apart (205 looks absurd, as does 209), the exact note-taking style i used in my first scum game, the drunken hissy fit upon getting voted, etc. etc. etc.

You just give me a narrative of what happened.

Now tell me WHY it makes him scum.

I literally did, and not surprisingly, you didn't like the answers.

No, you didn't.

You told me what happened in the thread. I know what happened, I was there. Now tell me why what he did makes him scum.

I know you were there. You swooped in and tried to derail within minutes of it.

We don't have to continue this. We're both fully aware that there's no explanation I could give to you that is going to satisfy you. We don't need to do theater here.

Of course there is, explain why what Rad did makes him scum.

You just told me WHAT he did. You didn't tell me WHY it makes him scum.

There's still time to pivot for like a 5th time and try and get the Somnus wagon going again. I know all of them have collapsed so far, but this time it might work out. I believe in you.

Because this is a Newbie, I'll spoon feed you.

What greeting tell and why is it scummy?

As I'm sure you can understand, given I am town, this makes 0 sense.

Let's say it is true though; what do scum!Rad and scum!BBT get from this? Why does scum!Rad vote scum!BBT when he starts coming under pressure!?

Because all scum play the exact same way?

The drunken hissy fit is scum and not town because...

Have you seen any of my other town reads getting wagoned?

I'm sure you can find plenty of examples of me not liking certain votes though. But that doesn't suit your narrative, of course.

Yes, I clearly have come in with a narrative and have desperately been trying to have you eliminated all of Day 1.

You haven't answered anything I have written except to try and defend yourself.

Good stuff.

To everyone else, flip one of me, BlueBlood, or Rad today. Obviously, my preference isn't myself, but it would at least break this game the fuck open and make the solve easier.

I'm under zero pressure and last I checked, there's 1 vote on me? And I'd respond the same way at E-5 or E-1. Bella was right. Pressure doesn't mean anything to me in a forum mafia game.

I didn't say you were under any pressure at all.

I said you can't explain your scum read and have now moved onto a second scum read (Spartan, take note of what I said earlier about scum hunting scum teams) that you likely can't explain any better.

Like, Rad is scum because BBT is scum and BBT is scum because Rad is scum, right?

Sums it all up pretty well?

Kinda bored with your obsession of Rad. Sorry. Got stuff to do and your obsession with it is putting me to sleep. Good luck on the next pivot!

Two thoughts I had while cooking:

Spartan remembering my name, even though we didn't play together, is odd. Sounds like the kind of thing you discuss in a scum PT?
Although somnus comes in with bursts of energy and aggression, they aren't contributing a huge amount to the flow of the thread. As I said, I basically forgot then in my readslist.

Spartan is probably town, Bella.

I would compromise on Somnus but running up yet another wagon just doesn't seem good for Town.

I know, I keep coming back to that but then going 'hmm'. Compare to rad, who I wobbled on and just town binned.

I know, but I don't think there's much harm in these wagons? You've been on most of them (so have I, I don't usually throw my vote around this much) but town hasn't exactly been here consistently to ever threaten a hammer. And me and you seem to be the only people wanting to end the day phase!

The quality of newbie games has definitely got better since I was a newbie, but the game length extending is now seen as a 'good thing'. I got scum read in the spec thread in my newbie for wanting day one over after ten pages but I swear I picked that up from players like Thor.

I learnt it from Thor myself! How strange! That's for post game though.

We do need to end this day phase. And quickly. I could do Somnus.
