Or, if say, someone who says "BBT is my top scum read" voted for BBT instead of not doing that?

And I do agree with that. I think he had plenty of chances to make different decisions that are more villager-indicative, but I don't think those chances were taken.

fake edit: honestly, I got potential scumbuddy vibes when BBT said he'd be happy to vote HPE and then didn't. I figure scum in his position would be eager to wagon a low hanging fruit-ish slot.

Anyway, there's no need to lock in the elimination right now. I'll vote for an actual elimination when I'm good and ready.

That's a big part of why I think I'm on the right track here is that there's a bunch of people who have been perfectly willing to say BBT is scummy or that they have a reasonable chance to be scum but none of them want to put their money where their mouths are.

There's two possibilities here:

The first is BBT is town and those people are scum trying to stay clear of the miselim because they know there's way more plausible deniability in the scramble to lim a random consensus at the very end of the day, OR BBT is scum and those people are scum who don't think there's enough pressure that they have to actually bus yet.

But solways response in particular to BBT as a vote candidate is not good no matter how BBT flips, and I kind of don't like your reaction either if you're saying theres a good chance they're scum.

Like, what better than "a good chance" do you expect to get d1?

Umm, 14 out of 21 people scum read me in a recent large (I had 0 town reads) and I was town.

Just saying.

Eh, I don't think you're hearing what I'm saying. And I'm not interested in making a zillion posts about it tonight.

There's a lot of stuff I missed, I just popped in to see what was happening. I'll look at whatever Solway's response was when I can.

Night.

And I think you're missing what I'm saying. You can't just pop in and see if things are happening. You have to make things happen.

Yeah gonna be real here, the game's activity is largely dominated by like 3 or 4 people and the vote is scattered. Still personally feeling Frogster right now but like. BBT
is
up there too. In the interest of running things along, this one shall UNVOTE: FrogsterKing and VOTE: BlueBloodedToffee, and then probably get on Frog's case again unless he stops acting weird.

Shea and BBT's arguments are alot to unravel in terms of where logic begins and personality ends, but the core of the matter is that BBT is just, yeah kinda scummy. So here's to less flopping around like fish and more pushing votes and wagons.

Oh yeah we should note that enchant just likes to hammer stuff so we should try not to put people to l-1 until we're ready.

Like here: I agree with the first sentence, but there isn't really a depth of thought behind it: I'd be shocked if all if grib/fire/tsq/frog are town, the thread is nearly unreadable. The voting nice feels really self conscious and steps away from the reads in the same sentence, then commits, then goes back to ,'doing it fit the wagon/game'. It isn't the first post that's feltike this from the slot
