Sure, I don't get town vibes from him. If you want me to get into my internal logic I'm afraid I'll need to *vaguely waves hands* *hands out brain matter*
I think they're scum.
I genuinely do.
Was this in response to my question about Pooky or something else?
Was in response to Dunnstral, I already responded to you.
I am always paranoid of Pooky. But I have a very hard time reading them.

I do not care about flipping ceph or flipping taly

I want to flip frogster

and if frogster flips red I want to flip you

I am voting for Taly to get this day fucking over with so I can get to what I want to do.

I hope Frogster shoots me at night so I no longer have to play in this shitty game
I'm sorry I got angry with you I will try to be better.

But not too long ago you said that scum gladiator makes the most sense and Ceph!scum is using it to protect Frogster. So I mean...???

I mean we're down to 2 votes possible. Who's happy with this selection? I read ceph town for pushing it because this day is too fucking long but I was just getting a town read on taly finally. If the option is between 2 towns why the fuck do I want to vote?

There's a bunch of math that says an elimination is preferred always, even on town.

Usually we don't have a choice with gladiators, we have to lim someone.

This would always be the case until the scum have close to or are in the majority.
. If we don't eliminate anyone. We won't kill any scum. We don't choose who to kill, we don't move forward with new information that is in majority control of the town's interest. There are some hyperpolarized players that are sure Taly is town, but the majority don't think they are o have doubts. By killing them people can think about other stuff if they don't we'll just keep wondering. Scum gain the advantage. This would only be true if Ceph and Taly were actually obvious town and they. are. not.

Killing someone day 1 is more likely to result in killing town then scum. In every single game. Any kill we made this day had an over 80% chance to be town, and we have been planning to kill someone anyways.

No kill is almost never the answer.

How is Ceph spewed town?
cuz frogster is scum and his initial reaction to gladiate was to "sleep on the choice" which means he's thinking about which townflip puts him in a better position tommorrow.

If Pooky is correct than it actually is. I’m just not sure I agree but I would unvote Ceph if it meant saving Taly.

I do care about math. Or rather, I care about winning.
Not eliminating here, given my understanding of the game state is not ideal.
Taly is at best busy with work and unable to truly engage with the game to my satisfaction. They could be town, they could be scum. probabilistically she is most likely town because math. But playwise they just said some stuff that jumped through their specific meta or opinion hoops.
