Also, what is Not_Mafia doing? This is some of the worst play I’ve ever seen.
I will SEARCH for games with you and N_M to help you policy him.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.

Not necessarily calling Enchant scum, I'm just not agreeing with BBT's views with his progression, and where his vote is.

High.
If you're believing that the chances of them both being town as high, why would you vote for one of them? Why aren't you putting the case forward for them being town, and actually voting for the person who YOU believe is to be scum, and put the case forward?

I know if I was in you're shoes, if I believed the chances of someone being town, I wouldn't be voting them to get them eliminated, even at this late stage of the day. I'd be trying to build cases on who I believed to be scum and trying to get them eliminated.

I think the chances of all the scum team being on your wagon, is very very low, but not out of the question.

I'd say quite low :evil: And Jake's lecturing is a lot easier to fake as scum than Enchant's frustration is :wink:
Frustration can also be faked as scum.

Disagree that both can't be town but agree that Jake seems more likely to be scum.

If Frog's attack on the hydra at start of D2 was from scum, I'm impressed.

VOTE: Jake

E-1 I think?
You said the chances were high for both being town, but now it's changed. What made you change your mind?
In post 1675, Enchant wrote:I think he (and others) probably caught in trap where possible elims are you or me.

We should yolowagon someone else as well. Why not.
Within the time frame that we have, I don't think we could get another wagon going, with everyone agreeing with it.
Assuming there's no extension (and I don't know how much good it would do at this point), gun to your head right now, out of the two big wagons, where would your vote go?
My mind is inclining to go with Jake, tbh.

I was talking about the fact that BBT said that you and Jake had a high chance of flipping town, but yet has his vote there, and his natural progression that Jake is the likely one to flip scum, without any explanation. It doesn't feel right, and I don't agree with it.

Explain your progression. Why did you go from both being highly likely to be town, to Jake being the likeliest scum out of them two?

@nancy, as far as I'm aware, Auro scum read me because of misreading a vote count - he said I was the first vote on day two when I wasnt. That's why 'vcs' are linked in my mind: does that make things clearer? Auro really hasn't explained their scum read on me elsewise.

I think he realized his mistake? I’ll ask him to elaborate on his read of you more.

So, now that Kop has posted some content, has your read on them changed at all?

Kop seems fairly decent, but still null in my mind, hasn't done anything noteworthy yet.

Admitting my mistake in reading the Votecounts implied an invalidation of my own scumread on you along those lines.

What pinged me harder is this line:
Do you think our mistakes (in parsing the VoteCounts / tracking the Enchant wagon) were deliberate? I'm not sure what kind of reassurance you were expecting.
I see your post clarifying that it was targeted towards a different slot. However, it still strikes me as an odd reason to cause worry/paranoia.

Have you been treated this way in other games? What makes you think that will be the most likely result? You're assuming bad faith play from town.

They can both be highly likely to be town AND have one slot more likely to be scum than the other.

It's not a mutually exclusive thing. For arguments sake, let's say I think there is a 90% chance that both flip town. I can think this but also think that there is a 1% chance Enchant flips scum and a 5% chance that Jake flips scum and therefore Jake is more likely to flip scum than Enchant.

Does that make sense?

As of right now, we have 13 hours.

If a wagon sprung up and garnered enough votes in that short space of time I would probably be suspicious about it and get cold feet anyway so I'm not sure it's a great idea regardless.

You're right, I didn't realise we still had so much time back when I was voting you.

My reads wavered a bit on both slots though so I didn't feel as strongly then as I do now regarding Jake and yourself if that makes sense?

I also don't feel I have enough to push Bella or Penguin so it just feels like my hands are tied and we're in a pretty shitty position.

Norwegian, did you spend time figuring out if you were right about Enchant or not?

If so, can you concisely explain your scum read on them please?
