What about him saying he won't accept multiple vetos from Nancy makes you think scum over town?

I have other ones like OtH, so I will veto anyone I hard tr.

OtH is like my strongest tr, so why wouldn’t I veto them?

btw my thought on this was: think there might be a reason Bell doesn't want to allow you more than one veto?
ik you think Bell is town but I feel like his play very well serves a possible scum agenda.

BBT is still scum.

I highlight a FoS.
He misrepresents that I'm stating he must be scum.
He claims my initial review is shit and he loves VCA.
He won't do any scumhunting or VCA.

Yes.

my belief is scum wanted Taly out before he becomes unassailable by being obvtown
I think Bell acted in such a manner via his baselessly strong push for Taly's death D1, and I think he would view it as furthering wincon if he could trade a Taly veto for locking DP out of any further vetoes.

Sure. Fine.

But you and Bell were using Veto to mean different things.

You meant: I town read this list of players so hard, that I will go to bat to defend them if they are under pressure. Obviously, it makes sense for you to do that for as many slots as you town read.

Bell meant: Nancy is asking me to ignore my own scum read because she town read Taly. I am only willing to ignore a max of 1 scum read for the benefit of Nancy. Obviously, it makes sense for Bell to not be willing to completely limit his pushes based on your town reads.

If anything, him agreeing to ignore his own scum read on Taly, for your benefit, is above and beyond what he would be expected or required to do. And I don't get why Gamma is acting like it is suspicious that Bell would not want to do that for more then 1 person.

I don’t understand your Bell read at all and yes, I did click your link to Among Us and I don’t see any similarity with this game.
Among Us was only relevant to the no-lim discussion
I would potentially compare him to Shakespeare UPick instead. You weren't in it, but Titus was.

I view a veto as a permanent affair, non-negotiable after the person demanding the veto has exited the game
what reason would I have to view it differently?

I don't know that there are many players hanging off of every word or read from DP, either Nancy or Titus, that would even necessitate a veto system. The fact that you're pushing that a) Bell should be or b) anyone should is strange

Weren't you the one claiming (or agreeing with the person claiming) that scum would magically try and lim Taly on Day 2 because they knew Ceph would flip town? I'm sorry if I'm misattributing that take to you...but that's the take I was mocking.

My point specifically is that 1 veto only seems particularly scum-driven in order to mitigate DP's ability to interfere with Bell's pushes. I don't really feel that Bell should be specifically granting DP a veto and the fact that you're pushing that I am is strange.

I believe I said if Ceph was town then scum pushed him into the Taly gladiate for the motive I have outlined. I don't see what accomplishes other than a) being a shithead and b) trying to deconstruct my argument against you pre-emptively because while you weren't a leading suspect for me att, you were definitely a part of why Taly got gladiated over anyone else.
