Unfortunately I don't have time to reread this thread at the moment, but I plan to check tomorrow how many of Fizz's reads, particularly those he was willing to call town, were parroting popular earlier opinions, in particular his town reads on Malakittens and pirate mollie. Since other than them, everyone except Last Survivor came up as scummy or unclear to him. Yes, it is early days, but it's also a question of if he's scum, he's hedging his bets/not leaving much to incriminate him.
Not sure if it's relevant, but Number Six and Breakfast have been MIA for upward of a week. Number Six came in volunteering a couple of reads but has disappeared since people lost interest in voting his slot (formerly Aether's), no V/LA that I can see. Breakfast also seems to have lost interest since everyone's focus moved away from the Aether-spot lynch, i.e. one that while may have had somewhat of a point also had a decent amount of 'lynch the VI.' My initial thoughts on their behavior are kind of mutually exclusive, as it seems like Number Six was mostly posting when it was in his interest to avoid being strung up, and Breakfast was mostly interested in pushing the lynch on the Number Six-Aether slot, with a side order of interest in Nobody Special.
"Fe is still pretty scummy, but kmd's case on Fizz makes a lot of sense and I personallywill be reading up a lot on Fizz. Number Six and Breakfast have also been gone for a while, so people should look over there!"
Next, penguin endorses the counterwagon even more:
↑ penguin_alien wrote:While we're waiting for Fe to finish giving us his reads, I'd like to ask why Fizz has completely disappeared? He said he would be V/LA through Monday at the latest, which is closing in on 72 hours by the most generous standards and time zone assumptions. His last content was #319, in which he said he thought Fe was fishy, yet declined to put down a vote.
His initial willingness to interact with the game seems to have faded, and many of his reads boiled down to, 'not sure what to think.' I still want Fe lynched today, but I get the sense that Fizz threw us a bone of appeasement, and we went haring off after it. Pardon me if I'm breaking some understanding of V/LAs, but given how vague his was, I think it's worth another look.
And I also realize that Nobody Special had a lot on his plate, but I'm still not happy with his explanation of his wagon-hopping in this day phase, namely from Fizz to Kmd4390. Nobody Special, why the vote change from someone you said you thought was scum to their prime accuser with no indication that you agreed with any arguments against Kmd4390? And please give me something more than idle curiosity about the result of doing so.
It seems a strange thing to me to give the counterwagon so much lipservice when you acknowledge that there's inactive slots that might make getting a lynch difficult, and not push the wagon you are voting at all. It looks like penguin felt obligated to buss Fe here, but still did all she could to subtly push the wagon off him.
