I find it amusing that when I give people the chance to advocate for Taly's elimination by scum casing Taly they won't go near it with a 10 foot pole

Cause maybe there's not a case?
:woozy:


Like, gladiating is the most excusable reason to towncase or scumcase someone and I see little of either happening.

It’s D1. There is rarely if ever a case worthy of the name. Funnily enough there was one because of Frogster. But that’s kind of it. I’ll take the blame on being wrong there(I mean not that it’s my choice in the first place). I didn’t think their claim through. I still think it was a bad claim for scum to make and don’t see the inherent value in claiming a role cop in this game. But that really should have been the starting point toward investigation and instead I didn’t.

Pretty much.
They posted in the PT but It was mostly hedged reads and seemed to have a semi-genuine reach out with me. Which failed.

Perhaps I am being too demanding when I ask for a full scum case on Taly from whoever is advocating for Taly to get killed here.

I will lower the bar for those who want to kill Taly.

Give me your single most compelling reason to believe Taly is mafia here.

Idk what Frogster is but you of all people should know from Pokemon that this isn’t good reasoning. Remember Imaginality’s fake claim? He made this huge production about how he role made him town - can’t exactly remember but that isn’t a good reason to tr anyone.

You may consider
Taly!scum
has more thread power than whatever the fuck the thread's opinion of me is.

The people advocating most for me!town are the most familiar with my play. This isn't like random slots coming to bat for me to save a partner. The advocacy isn't based on alignment but familiarity.

This thread doesn't support a narrative where I'm scum.

Like, everything I read in this game seems like I'm the path of least resistance here.

They hedged in a PT.
Toog implied their role was more inherently townie than it really was in the game thread.
They stated they wanted less noise so wanted to talk in a PT.
They replaced into a game and then went inactive. When usually people who replace into games have the time to replace into them.
Cognitive load(I’m aware this game is exceptional, but if I unthinkingly apply it, it works).

There I made up a case I don’t even believe In. Because of a town case that I feel is stronger that can be summed up in “they’re being very emotional and I don’t think it’s fake because reasons 1-9.

Even you initially were upset not because Taly was going to be killed, but because it derailed your frogster wagon and his reaction spewed that the gladiate was tvt. An assumptions on top of an assumption.

, am I scum or not? The dissonance between giving me the floor as a sign of good faith for me being town and consistently announcing your paranoia of my slot doesn't make sense.

Agree, should be done for both but Pooky’s and my theory is that your push has a > rand chance of being scum motivated, especially since we both don’t tr T-Bone.

It wasn't really about Taly, as I had more town leans on the other choices. Like, Taly is fine, and is still fine, and I feel bad for Taly in this moment. Maybe I should have refused to participate because I didn't think any of the 4 were most likely to be scum. But like I wasn't the only one to do this. In retrospect we should have just limmed Frogster and that's on me for not getting with the program.

In post 7029, Taly wrote:Why is my townflip more detrimental than Ceph's hypothetical townflip?
Because you have emotional defenders I think are town and ceph has non-emotional defenders I think are town. Green taly flip causes retaliation likely to fall back onto town and green Ceph flip causes nothing to happen because Ceph started us down this path to begin with.

I doubt there's more than 1 scum arguing about this loudly right now, if any, and a green taly flip makes everyone arguing hate each other more. the taly defenders hate the vocal ceph defenders and the town ceph defenders are just going to feel attacked and frustrated for it.

I think even a red taly flip right now is probably terrible for town, because again, I think the most vocal people right now are all likely town and red taly flip would become pure chaos where we just elim town back to back to back. Red ceph flip probably moves us towards a solve. Red taly flip can wait until later when we have actual cases against taly.
