I mean Alex can be bussing. I remember a game from years ago that had me and Gamma in it where scum were all under suspicion d1 and they just decided to bus each other and town was lost until the game got mechanically solved because they just assumed a suspected scum wouldn't want to bus.

I think it's weird that the main opposition to the Marci wagon is coming from people who also think Marci is scum but prefer to flip Alex tbh

It probably indicates that if Marci is scum partners are Alex or people who aren't really around to be pushing anything (or there's a hardbusser I guess)

The progression does suggest a bus is possible. He's set a pattern of defending Marci, then when her train starts building up again due to her acting out even worse, he's "on board" 42 posts later. The way he's lazily nudged at Johnny and Corwin repeatedly (the lowest hanging fruit) feels like trying to draw out attention to the inactives, which can be a pretty common scum tactic in diverting attention, especially with teammates that have 0 self-control.

I mean all the building blocks for a bus are certainly there.

oh i missed this post originally,

i dont really get good vibes from the posts. i think part of it is because the og claim () feels a bit over explanatory.

i think aesthetic miller is a pretty easy fakeclaim for mafia to make, it helps them in the way of : town wont investigate them, and people wont really worry about them until much later in game where they've already had time to mess around.

i have no idea how games get reviewed on this site, but i also think an "aesthetic miller" is likely to raise a question in the review process. i could be wrong on that though.

their vote on datisi () is just attention graby in a way i dont really vibe with. but this point is a bit gRaSpInG aT sTrAwS
In post 42, Crescent wrote:If anything feels a little "odd" to me, it's not the votes, it's post #27. Isn't 3/13 like, normal regulation? I assumed 4/13 (the norm where I come from) my first game and was quickly shot down. I came out with the impression it's always 3. I feel like that post is both trying to be serious but also has no reason to exist in such a context.
it was a joke yeah, sorta was just me expanding on my imaginary world where i imagine catching scum without much brain power.
scum numbers dont actually matter just always assume the worst and get pleasantly surprised if its less than you og thought.
In post 46, Gamma Emerald wrote:also, don't like the vote, partly because I'm here to play with marci so killing her immediately defeats that
just wait until I hammer her for the ultimate betrayal tho

why would scum want to naked vote and draw attention to themselves?
why would shoshin
not
want to shade people this early on? it'll cause reactions for sure and help better read people? like how ur having a tantrum over them scumreading you rn :oops:
why are
you
framing everything they do in such a bad way? the certain words, "bullshitting", "dodging a question" its making a bigger deal of something than it should be.
why are
you
expecting shoshin to be perfect?
In post 201, marcistar wrote:
In post 115, Crescent wrote:"Fling poop around and see where it sticks" is a tried and true scum strategy. The issue is, it tends to dilute your actual vote so much that it has no real power. The goal is you're hoping even one of the people you shade takes off as a train - Preferably someone you've never actually voted so it doesn't blow back directly on you.

If he were shitposting it'd be NAI to me. The fact that he voted me for pointing out he dodged a question was a mere continuance of his already anti-town behavior (His previous vote was also a direct countervote).
i think ur drawing conclusions too quickly.

I feel like I got a middle finger instead of a Role PM this game :lol:
This part of it felt like you were trying to justify why you claimed because of being worried of how you would be viewed.
In post 130, Ausuka wrote:she's trying to win an argument and isn't really worried about how this impacts Crescent's alignment.
yes, im just trying to win the argument, and what about it?
I think shoshins okay rn, and I think Crescents drawing alot of lines prematurely.

makes me like alexcellent.
In post 149, Datisi wrote:suspicious of roden because the early townread of shoshin for "solving behind the scenes" seems (1) kinda awkwardly explained, (2) seems like tmi? like, i'm a bit skeptical that he saw two basically naked votes and decided there's some townie solving happening there
im not really in agreeance with 2.
In post 180, Crescent wrote:Marci gave off "clueless, easily pocketed town" vibes (Shoshin being the one player to definitively call her town) from that post specifically.
i'm not doing this 100% cluelessly.
In post 190, Crescent wrote:The tantrum bit is the one part that sticks out if anything. I was giving a rational breakdown of another player's actions and how they were naturally scum slanted. It felt more like her trying to shut me down to protect Shoshin more than having anything to do about my alignment.
u mean almost like what ur doing to shoshin?? :yawn: :yawn: :yawn: :yawn: :yawn: my bad my bad!!

i think town usually isnt as worried about appearances as scum is.

I generally won't place a vote this early in a day for any reason unless I already feel like a game is solved or at least mostly solved. My overall voting habits came under a fair amount of fire in 2272.

That said... Kinda still want to see more out of STD here. The one side comment is not enough.

Yeah I mean your style does throw off wagon analysis but I think the point stands, I was talking about Roden and Johnny rather than you, I didn't really get the sense you were advocating for either Marci or Alex Lim specifically at this stage

In post 920, marcistar wrote:ok and?
to start with, in you accuse himof tunneling, and that way that post is written it implies datisi is town pushing on you rather than scum (because why would someone tell scum they need to stop tunneling)

but when i asked you about this at that moment in time, you ignored that post because i wasnt sure if you were scumreading him or not

then later you say "hm maybe he is town" in . notably, this comes right after where he shows how you acted exactly like this in another game as scum

to me, it looked like you reversed tactics immediately because he called out what you were doing and realized you couldnt keep getting way with it. this was why i asked you what changed your read, because it looks like youre just saying things to try to get people to move off you

the fact that i cant get you to commit to a straight answer to some very simple questions makes it feel like you dont actually have an answer, and im struggling to see how the stuff you are saying comes from a legitimate thought process

i should also add that i dont really care about her quoting her posts to go "see! not all my posts are useless!" because it feels very pedantic like shes trying to prove a very nitpicky point, when she is choosing to respond to that and not me asking her to explain *why* she thinks what she thinks

in my experience thats a common thing where scum will say stuff but not really have a deeper reasoning behind it because theyre just making things up, its a lot easier for town to elaborate on their thinking in a way that is natural and free-flow-y, other people when ive questioned them hav responded a lot more easily and marci just feels like shes taking a pop quiz she didnt study for
