My gut is that this makes the Professor look a lot worse (especially since there is like zero reevaluations after a bunch of incorrect reads in flips), but also I doubt the Dunn kill is about them. I'm running with the assumption that Dunn was the factional kill and not Frog, otherwise the scumteam is playing 5D chess in which case good job.

@Taly because I said I would if Ceph/Frog flipped town. It's also a joke? What a weird thing to get hung up on. Sorry, I'm feeling relatively good because three of my town reads were correct, makes me feel like I have good read on the game after all, something among other things at the end of day 1, I was doubting.

Wanted to end the day and someone pretty much said vote Ceph or we start day two doing the same stupidity as yesterday. Ceph was kinda elim de facto anyway hence why I said “Whatever”.

These thoughts feel incongruent, because I feel like I was the person who caused Ceph to be the elim yesterday.

This may be a self centered view of how the day played out, but from my pov you were going to be elimed, but it was going to take until deadline.

I decided to kill Ceph to end the day faster. He died.

Spoiler:
To be clear, it was not just because I wanted the day to end faster.

I started leaning town on you, and I was less convinced that you were definitively the better elim.

and I was also worried that if you died and flipped town, then there were certain other players that would not let go of tunneling ceph (Drapion lol), so dead town ceph was better for the collective town solving then dead town taly.

sharing that feels like a genuine mindmeld. this makes the most sense.


Idk why exactly Titus is voting BBT but they’re not currently a tr but based on how different Math is here, not sure if Covid 100% explains it. Still also don’t know what to make of T-Bone.

I could vote any of them today, so won’t change it for now. I’m going to assume Titus’ vote has some connection to VCA.

I am pointing out this isn’t right.

Excuse you, I am not blindly continuing a tunnel from yesterday, and just naked voting you.

I was calling you town yesterday, and then I decided to vote you today without explanation as to why that read has shifted.

If you want to discredit the votes, at least get it right
