Hard scum read on Cheery Dog, and that's what I really needed, for someone to confidentely put Cheery Dog into one category or another.

It's time to put old yeller out of his misery.

UNVOTE:

VOTE: Cheery Dog

Huzzah! All aboard the Cheery Dogwagon!

I've probably phrased this all terribly but really overall do you see what I am there?

This looks real to me (especially the experiential "push against the grain" point) and pretty unlikely to have been cooked up for some nefarious purpose. I mean, it's very easy to accuse someone of fencesitting whenever their position is more complex than "X is town" or "X is scum" but that doesn't seem tenable when there's a clear and genuine source of disagreement.

Oh.

You should probably start with the person you think is most likely to be scum given we are short on time.

She doesn't see anything from his play that points to him being scum. She's caught up to the game and gotten to the point about the Aeronaut progression and doesn't think it's a scumtell for CES.

It's more than enough for me to not want to lynch CES today.

Oversoul's posting before he left.

There is no way scum goes through all that effort before replacing out.

in particular.

Divine Sottyvention says he's town.

Why do you think he's scum?

What do you think of the way Cheery wormed onto his wagon?


He feels like he's giving the illusion of trying to figure out the game rather than figuring out the game. I also feel like he's playing up to regfan in a similar but more overt way as he did with empire in yoloville.

I've hated pretty much all of cheery dogs votes and reasons.

So basically, CES is town because nothing indicates scum. There's no actual town in his points either?

I would expect a stronger justification on a 'firm town read'.

The absence of one would imply the other?

She's said his play lines up with CES town and can see his thought process from a town POV.

You act like I just personally insulted your mother.

Do you think Cheery Dog is town? If so why? Does him being on the wagon not turn you off to the lynch in the least, in combination to how he slid his way right onto that wagon.

It's my turn to tell you I think you've got a loser here.

I think CES approached White flag pretty similarly to this actually.

I mean I've been looking at him so hard to the point where I'm probably trying to see things that aren't there, and I'm not really seeing a scum case on him.

Further to the point, I'm not afraid of CES scum slipping through to the end of the game without getting lynched.

I am starting to worry that could happen with Cheery scum. This town keeps coming up with reasons not to lynch him and that in itself tells me that I'm probably on the right track.

I read him as town so easily last white flag.

I mean I don't have a solid case on him or anything, but he doesn't feel right.

Oversouls has a gut town lean on cheery dog, which he can't really explain, and I think mostly stems from him admitting he put a token on scum. But, eh, I'd probably be okay with his lynch regardless as he himself has said he's got to go before lylo, I'm not crazy he did say that right?, and if he's town then people can do resets and I'd rather take care of that earlier than later.

I'll try to get some more concrete thoughts out today. I'm still pretty sick, but probably not with strep throat so yay!

Ankamius - will you ask mollie to please take a look at ika?

mollie asked me if ika had called out to her; I said that he had but not recently and she returned with that being a bad sign. That's the entire conversation we had about it.

I'll try again, though.

It doesn't, especially when it's a read that is apparently fairly strong. I'm very dubious of strong reads when I can't see the reasoning for myself.

How many times has sotty played with CES? When I played the other game with CES I linked in my list, the meta referenced was that he's easier to catch by eventually just looking at his play and not seeing a town mindset. How does this match up?

That sounds completely alien to me.

And that game was so dreadful. I just played badly and got tunneled by roflcopter even worse than Antihero is doing this game.
