like why are you being so defensive?
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I'm never voting these people:

Nero Cain
Eiralox

Really don't think it's these people:

Ausuka
DeltaWave

I don't trust my own read here:

Frogsterking

don't think its MND or Delta.

So maybe the intermediate POE is BBT/Frog?

I agree I don't think it's Mapuche here

I guess it can be BBT? Don't super feel it but like I can see why he would lack motivation for most of the game with this team

so u basically come in to sorta shade inutile then vote juice, the wagon with most traction? any other pertinent thoughts on the game state?
Shade? I town read inutile. Sounds like you haven't been reading my posts. :oops:

Thoughts on the game state is that people keep pushing and casing and arguing with people without actually voting them, but have no problem voting other players with very little justification, especially if they can piggy back off another player's momentum. :wink:

see the thing is some people don't always vote without due reason. sometimes i'm exactly like that. so you tunneling towards inutile on this is either a bad play or a "push for the sake of a push."


I really haven't seen any game-relevant, alignment-relevant content come from you thus far.
There is a problem if you're five days into a game and have argued with several people, but don't have a good reason to vote someone yet. Besides, it's day 1, the whole point is to pressure people off of what little info you have and see what happens. Unless scum busses or plays very poorly, town tends to get yeeted first, so I'm not gonna stress over "good" or "bad" pushes. As long as we can get people to show their hand and make them readable for future days, I'm totally fine with an imperfect day 1 that sets us up to catch scum the following days.

Do you actually believe my ISO contains zero game and alignment relevant content? Serious question.

@gandhi can shift back to u on a needle's drop
This a pretty bad vote, it seems pretty obvious you only voted me because Ausuka opened the door for you. Or maybe you're just hiding behind her as cover? Either way, very slimy.
In post 399, Eiralox wrote:by game related i don't mean asking people to do something but proactively hunting yourself. asking others to hunt while you aren't doing much hunting yourself is by default not a game-advancing strategy in my mind. I can bear lurkers. what always pings me tho is lurkey slots accusing other slots of being lurkey. if those slots vote there.... well then my ping becomes a bell tolling in my skull.

cos i get inutile seemed very, very very scummy the first few pages. I shared that vibe. But through later actions inutile remains in my townlocks. So would scum hopip focus like this on inutile? not a factor in my analyses. In general, in wording, by votes, I just have no idea what inutile is thinking or doing. And it feels.... did Ausuka say slimy? Sorta?


well......
Looks like another misrep to me. Two in fact. :oops:

Eira, I'll give you another chance, but you only get one! Go into my ISO and quote where I said I scum read inutile. Next, show proof that I haven't been scum hunting. Do both and I'll role claim right now! Otherwise you're gonna have to work extra hard to convince me that you're town after telling blatant lies~
This is very rarely partnered I think.

Scumteam needs a pivot, bbt doesnt fit that bill, too uncaring: places bbt as probable VT in my mind.

Frogster is probably the puppetmaster. Ill vote in 24 hours.

I'm not convinced that BBT bussed themselves into a potential autoloss or makes the Greeting kill. I think what's happening here is that I'm ahead of the curve on my Delta FoS.

Sorry for not really explaining my Eiralox townread Nero but I don't really know how in a way that I think you'll be satisfied with. It's an overall vibe thing, I think Eiralox obviously cares about a lot of things in this game that aren't anything to do with a scum wincon.

PEdit: In a theoretical Crescent/hoppip/BBT scumteam I don't really see any of the three playing differently than they have played so far though

BBT is a null read for me (as always) but at this point that puts him well within acceptable PoE for me

Because this reads like you want to buffer the wave of suspicion by quickly having another name out there without yet having the reasons to back it up

I have been suspicious of Klick slot but I think parking his vote on hoppip after replacing the way he did shows a lack of care towards hoppip slot which I don't think I would expect coming from its partner?

Fine then:

I think Delta is scum by PoE. I think Delta is most likely to make the Greeting kill. I think Delta tried to pocket me D2 and I think Delta lied about their survey results. I think Delta has a viable (though unlikely) path to end game which doesn't require much work on their part. Delta tried to derail the Hoppip wagon. Delta has some minor negative associatives with Hoppip from D1. Delta was suspected early D1 based on tone and then Townread later for bad reasons which I consider typical "deepscum" trajectory.

That's just an outline, it's not a very level 1 read. I'd give Delta 33% to flip scum.

klick what made you decide to remove Ausuka from the POE?
