but yeah i think the interaction with vivax is pretty bad for Ircher and doesn't really look like actual attempts to sort alignment

at worst it comes from lazy/unmotivated town but i'm willing to take that risk if that's the type of 'sorting' the slot will be doing throughout the game anyway

i was pontificating on this but holding off on talking about it but likely yes if ircher is scum it's a probable instance of scum being way more self-conscious than townies and his team panicked at the attention he was getting while most of the town was just kind of clueless

for instance fireisredsir would probably have more thread awareness as scum than to be ignoring the ircher wagon and paranoia-ing one of the towniest players in the game

This is my elaboration, Mister
In post 290, Vivax wrote:I don't like Luke's and Fire's harping on mechanics on Page 2, it's dressing up something simple as an overly complex reason to vote Ircher. Ultimately it's not a productive discussion save for scum trying to rolefish, a town wouldn't want to comment on productivity. All we know is that scum night kills will probably be more on even nights.
Though I see why Yume/Ircher using the numbers so accurately and instantly guessing Mastinas intention could be construed as scummy, especially if it's scum seeing that and finding an easy reason.

Granted, it's tough to guess which side of the binary we are on. But if Ircher flips town here, the most vocal pushers go up a lot in scum equity, conversely.
I don't really see it as clear cut as most that Ircher flips scum here, but I'm just willing to take the leap of faith and work from there, especially since I supposedly 'stick out like a sore thumb' which is really not my scumplay in standard D1s

to touch on this more, if that's the case and theoretically scum!vivax is close to a ML, why do you think he jumps to vote you for that reads list you did or whatever and then switch back to Ircher? i feel like scum would be a little wearier of moving around votes like that, especially for reasons that may seem 'inadequate' to the other players

unless you're suggesting they're both scum in this scenario?

I'll bite.

I was originally on wagon because of the 1700 town points thing, because it was not phrased as a guess. It was phrased as a "here is exactly what we need to do."

Was good enough for early day 1 for me, but his response looks like scum to me.

Spoiler:

Just a confident guess. 4 is pretty typical for a game of this size.

I've read very little since like page 3,

In post 395, Vivax wrote:Isn't Ircher yume?
Here's an example. Vivax is making these theories that 1) have no basis in reality and 2) serve no purpose in reading me or the rest of the game.
In post 456, Ircher wrote:
In post 434, Vivax wrote:Well, because we were on course for an Ircher lim for presumably good reason, and when I checked in I saw a bunch of strange stuff, and the strangest one was him posting a list with mostly reasonable people at the bottom, imho.
This was the other post I saw. Again, not at all based in reality.


The "I've read very little since page 3," feels like he is going into anti-spew mode.

But he is also not very consistent with it. He has read very little (and therefore has few reads), but he also logged in and knew exactly what line of questioning was the reason he was being ran up and needed to respond to. And while yes, my initial question was on page two. It was not causing him a wagon until Furtive brought it back up, and outlined why it could be TMI which happens on page 8. And in that same post he votes Vivax, which he later explains was for posts that come on page 16 and 18.

Claiming to not have read much since page 3, but them commenting on things from pages 8, 16, and 18 all in the same post makes the original claim feel like a lie. One written specifically to limit the number of reads that he needed to put out.

Totally saying all scum are on the Ircher wagon already by the way.
Can't believe I passed up my yearly meeting with the Erinyes for these games.

having looked at uncrowned's scumplay i don't really get why this is clearly town but i do kinda feel similar vibes from the town games as well, so idk maybe im wrong

kinda felt energized in the read by ydrasse joining once i voted and now feel slightly abandoned but maybe that's for the best

VOTE: titus

fine with an ircher flip btw, didn't really like his re-entry to the thread, wouldn't mind seeing another significant wagon or two tho

Yeah, this game has been fine actually, unlike the game that made me worried about day 1 in a large lol

im not super confident but it kinda felt like she was putting on the "take control" hat earlier and her thoughts don't always seem like they make sense when you look at them on a deeper level

idk cause when ive played with town titus before she's been busy and mostly absent in the early game, while when she was scum she was a lot more engaged and trying to move the thread in the ways she wanted, so its hard for me to know exactly what active town titus looks like?

and im trying to keep in mind that im sure she has more active town games and probably more inactive scum games and those just happen to be the ones ive played in

but its still something thats been on my mind

it kinda seems like her thoughts are surface level intended to sound reasonable tho? like she hasn't said anything super out there it's just that they don't feel like they quite click into a consistent mindset, like luke was saying

Titus doesn't always make sense to other people but you can still see the thought process going on

I think it's particularly clear when you look for her takes on the wagons she doesn't want to join
