My bad. I'll try harder to keep my emotions in check. I tend to get pissed off when people assign wrong emotions to me or reasoning that's just bullshit and I should just hold those reactions back. Like I don't just automatically read anyone as scum when I get read as scum, it depends how they do it, and it probably doesn't help anyone when I react openly to it.

- Malcolm isn't my preferred elim toDay, partly due to Luke's townread there and their neighborhood. It feels like a nightkill on Luke directly opens up a path to an elimination on town Malcolm, with a vocal town leader who was one of his main defenders now gone, so the fact that he immediately became a leading option after Luke's death doesn't sit right with me.
- I've seen Miselim Bait's name thrown around, and I really don't think that Klick's interactions with Bella are partnered, especially I think never comes from someone partnered with both Bella and MathBlade.
- BBT's conversations with Bella don't seem partnered to me either.
- I don't agree that Johnny should be off the table, nothing there seems partnered, and as far as I know there's nothing to support Drap's belief that they are a doctor, so I will continue to ignore that until given reason not to.
- C&G is also an option, but a weaker one, since some of the interactions make them less likely as a partner to the flipped scum. I don't think it rules them out, though.
Is rad/Johnny/c&g your current solve?

I think cat evaluates a ton of slots, but also sees some stuff where they disagree but also take the time to work out if the thought process behind it comes from a solveu town mindset. Plus, they were sharing a bunch of my thoughts - the ceph wagon, toad, etc. I disliked t bones reaction a lot, but also I think I'm just a bit clashy with t bone in general
Again they kind of used csf's reads to look good saying that they shared the same read on ceph and we already know that ceph is town.

They kept calling csf obv town
I honestly haven't looked at any of csf posts on a microscope so I'm not sure how justified a tr on them is but this looks good for csf
especially when it's compared to bella's hedgy read on mathblade their scum buddy.
Gth, looks very much like a CSF pocket to me.

Because both BB and Pooky have claimed a two shot.
What does that have to do with anything? Why can't one of them be a 2 shot and the other be something else or nothing? Why can't town!BB be a 2 shot and scum!Pooky also claim a 2 shot? Why can't scum!BB fake claim 2 shot and town!Pooky actually be a 2 shot?
Actually nm, my theory doesn’t gel with Drap’s role.
I didn't want to explicitly point it out yet, but there's a train of thought
So you think there’s something to my theory then but Drap’s ungated, so not sure on how that fits but looks like all the players who can either check/communicate with the dead aren’t ungated. Dunn probably wasn’t or else I doubt he would have softed. Iirc, Frogs wasn’t ungated either, so someone ought to recheck that.

My scumread on Johnny primarily involved due to interactions between Bella and Johnny. I don't think they can both be scum together, or it's certainly very unlikely. On the basis of that I put Johnny into my town-pile - from there it became apparent to me I'd likely been pushing more on tone than them actually ultimately being scum, even though I believed they were early on. Some of their posts early D5 were a bit odd but with the knowledge the slot is unlikely to be scum it was easier to view that as town.

Taly - reading through your ISO this turn, feel like you're asking a lot of questions in a way which could potentially compensate for actually being busy/scumhunting at times. Is this (yes I'm aware of the irony of this being a question) how you tend to approach the game in general? I feel at times like you're very much sort of loosely hunting for info while asking questions but not necessarily doing a whole lot with that info once you get it.

Not finding the arguments compelling is different to not understanding at all why a slot is being scumread, which is what I took issue with.

So is MB based on something I posted in our hood after n2 but I think think both are probably town here but if either were to flip scum, the other is very likely spewed town.

That’s my stance. I don’t believe either is scum here.

I’m referring to Pooky, Mislim Bait with this.

I think Malcolm is town, the Luke NK is a good point in favor of
a town malcolm.

Bleh this game is quite difficult
