With 9 players alive it takes 5 votes to lynch.

If this is right, sorry if it isn't. Things are pretty spread around right now. We need to get a real push going.

By the way, this isn't really a reason. that's just an interpretation of my words. why are you searching for confirmation bias with me? you've not exactly approached me or engaged with me...as much as you ask other people to come to you with questions, i would expect someone saying those things to have practiced what they preach.

why are you so defensive? i know you said you can predict where this is going with my head on the chopping block, but you haven't exactly been objective about my reads and given me feed back that isn't riddled with insults. sorry, maybe its just my personality but that's major scum points for me.

@tux thanks for asking. Fiiiiishie is my scummiest read right now. maybe its the murky water he's swimming in....so punny right?

oh, well. that's fine, but why am i your scummiest read? does this put me at l-2?

My SO is trying out to be on Jeopardy this week, which is like the most exciting thing ever for a trivia addict, so I'm going to prioritize helping him prepare for that over MS through Thursday

My buckets are as follows:

Town - Formerfish (most scum hunting in the game, IMO, even if I don't agree with their conclusions sometimes), gibus

Prob town - votato (Past the IIOA phase of their posts and before all of the replacements, the 2nd most scumhunting participant here)

WIFOM Hell - Osuka/Ironcat/lililili (I will explain this on Day 2), Lilith (as many posts that ping me as town as ones which ping me as scum and I've resigned to just sorting on Day 2)

Need to Reinvestigate based on FF/votato's reads plus new content - Freddie, CopyKat/Tuxedo (rn I still think this is scum, and also that it would be the most informative lynch we could do)

and lastly, the strong scum read where there hasn't been much in the way of new data to convince me otherwise -

VOTE: Wavesarc/Brassherald

I'll check back around midnight if I've time to re-investigate as remarked above or if it's absolutely necessary that we consolidate on someone other than the Brass slot

Lilith and fish are scummy together

Why are they scummy together?

that was wayyyy too long ago for that question to be super relevant. but it was their interactions. I didnt buy their fight as TvT. They seemed to be agreeing about a lot of reads, and I didn't particularly like their reads. that suggests orchestration. Fish has since said that his posts were somewhat intentionally scummy as a gambit. If anything that makes lilith even more scummy since her posts agreed with someone who was being scummy on purpose.

i agree, i think think that fish was being scummy on purpose. why not vote fish? is he your second pick for scum?

In post 946, lilith2013 wrote:The scumreads on me and fish didn’t really go anywhere though, like he didn’t actively engage with either one of us or even copykat really to further develop the reads, and he didn’t really “go after” anyone in terms of hard pushes, so it seems he is playing the game at arm’s length. I think wavesarc made some good points - I don’t see a lot of pushing or gamesolving in votato’s posts.

This is the summary.

votato says he is scumreading people but makes no attempt to engage with them directly to develop his reads, he even says he needs more content from copykat to develop a read but then doesn’t try to get more content. So he’s not even trying to develop his reads. I don’t think this requires a particularly high skill level to do. If he was scumreading me and fish, why didn’t he question us about things he found scummy? If he says he needs more content from copykat, why doesn’t he interact with that slot further to try to understand copykat’s perspective and develop a read there? These are all things that town!votato would be actively doing in order to develop his reads and progress through the game.

wrong. those are things that motivated!votato would do regardless of alignment. as you say, theyre easy to do. easy to do as either alignment. the fact that im not doing them speaks to motivation, not to alignment.

and lots of other people arent doing those things either.

why only call me out lilith? and if this was a problem for a while, why only call me out after wave votes me?

In post 966, votato wrote:well you're making two separate claims here. 1) i havent hard pushed anyone. 2) im not engaging with my scumreads.

1) no one is doing this one.

it cant be that everyone not doing this is scum. it would be fine to make this argument by itself, but its getting conflated with 2.
2) i havent done much to engage any particular scum read. but i have made attempts to engage with quite a few different people. let's not take the "im not doing this at all" from point 1 and apply it to point 2. i have tried to engage a few people, but ill freely admit that my efforts have been somewhat limited compared to some other towngames. this isnt what my scum game looks like though. compare my posts here to my posts from GNR day 1 after my exchange with farside. its probably similar content.

@votato can you please point out who specifically you're saying are not hardpushing anywhere

because I feel like it's self-evident that the bolded statements above are untrue. @Formerfish your thoughts on the above statements? I don't think they're remotely true but I honestly can't piece together why votato repeated the accusation 3 times in a short span because it's such a seemingly unreasonable thing to say, and even if it were true "everyone is bad" isn't a better statement than "I'm low hanging fruit"

@Nauci lilili was replaced by Copy Cat who was replaced by me. Ironcat was here from the start then replaced by Osuka. Also, can you explain your Brass/Wave read, I do know you've gone over it, but how does their new content fit in? Also, I dislike you hopping off my wagon. I think consolidating things with this little time left is best.

@Freddie why aren't you voting FF? And what about FF do you find scummy?
Do you scum read Copycat/Me? But I'm most interested in your read of Copycat's posts. And do you scum read Osuka/Ironcat? I'm more interested in your thoughts on Osuka's posts though.

This is scum behavior.

You are trying to seem nonchalant and easy breezy with your jokes about my name and all the puns you have about it as well, but you arent doing that with anyone else. You are focusing on me and disparaging me to the thread but you aren't voting me or even really pushing for me to be lynched, you are just shading the fuck out of me and poking the bear begging for a reaction by repeatedly calling me a dick for a situation that had 2 sides to it and Lil never even gave half as much of a shit as anyone else has, so i kinda think that if the person who i called a cunt isnt mad at me for it because she called me an asshole and then we spoke and figured out that there was a miscommunication that we addressed and moved past no one else should be able to use that against me or continue to call me a dick without fear of repercussions.

this is a good list. i strongly believe freddie to be town. I have far more knowledge of freddie than anyone else (no, not what you're thinking), so I hope that, at least for today, we can put more weight on my read. I was townreading brass pretty confidently, but wave im much less sure about. I'd be very happy with an osuka lynch, that slot has not gotten better with age. Tuxedo is still pretty scummy too. I could compromise on a wave lynch, but its second best.

when i say theres no hardpushing, i mean there's no one doing big wallposts with post-by-post analysis, no one is really hard tunneling (except a few people getting in spats, but those hardly count, it isnt game-related substance thats upsetting people).

speaking of, lets keep it civil and try to work together here, shall we?

With that said, as I have prior stated; if you look at my early postings those are made in such a way that is going to illicit responses from people. It is a way to get out of RVS pretty quickly and seamlessly because people either get it and stay away from me, or they dont and they engage. I can then slap and poke and prod the people who lashed out at me because I know im town and they are either misguided town or scum looking for an easy push to look town.

After i try to sort those people I can then look at the people who stayed away from me and what they were focused on instead, because they are either town i need to work with and sheep or they are scum who know that im town and knew that pushing me would be a bad look for them later on when I flip green.

Normally I don't let up on my shit day 1 because I have a safety net in someone who knows me and knows how i play and can stave off some of my attackers or at least give me a leg to stand on thats not my own.

Come day 2 we can use the flips we got off the lynch and the nk, if one occurs, and use the info i got from day 1 to lay out some pieces of the puzzle that this game is and we can start to figure out what is out of place and why. Also we let our prs do some work and they can help us out later on.

So you guys are getting D2 Fish on D1.

Compare my early posts to the ones I have been making in the last 2 rl days and tell me that they are the same. Look at my iso and tell me that it is devoid of content. They are night and day different and there is more content in 25% of my posts than in most newbie games.

I have laid out very simply my reasons for why I think people are scum and some players are picking up what im putting down, while others are handwaving it away saying that they can read those people later. Why lynch tomorrow those that we can lynch today, my granddaddy always said (wait, that sounds wrong, im from Massachusetts so we didnt hang people)?

The Tux case is stale as fuck and it was never really a good case to begin with, i could quote Vota saying that exact thing, but im lazy and just remember it happened.

We should lynch between Wave/Gib/Freddie for the highest chance to lynch scum, and if we miss we get a lot of info because of interactions around those slots with a majority of the player list.

from those options the only one im really down to lynch is wave. im a bit concerned over lack of associations for day 2, but its an OK compromise as long as i can blame fish if it flips green. VOTE: wave

Almost immediately votes Tux back to l-2 with no reasoning given.

So I wonder to myself, "Hey dickhead, when did gib ever mention a sr on copy? Put down the bowl and iso this muppet."

So i did, and found this as being the most recent read on copy, a nice blue town lean.

[gibus, votato, feathers]

[CopyKat, ironcat]

[brassherald, Freddie]

[Formerfish, lilith2013]

CopyKat -> His initial townread on votato made sense. I like how he hopped on to my wagon when I made an unclear post which could've been seen as a scum slip without hesitation. He hasn't been anti-town in any of his posts. He hasn't been here for long so with the current information I put him in blue.

ironcat -> His paranoia in RVS strikes me as town. I don't agree with his recent list (#368) but his ISO seems to me like he is trying to help as town (apart from his fights). I didn't know about "bussing", and since I scumread fish, I townread ironcat a little bit more.

brassherald -> I'm neutral because he hasn't posted much and I don't like how he voted copykat for hopping on the wagon (I found copykat's reason sensible) while he hopped onto my wagon because my posts seem "off".

Freddie -> I have't seen much of him. Hence neutral.

Formerfish -> #227 for scumread.

lilith2013 -> I didn't like your interaction with fish. You didn't mention any of his posts in your recap (#351) and you accuse him of first throwing shade on your slot and then WhiteKnighting you, neither of which I think he did (I didn't see #412 when I posted this, I take this back. I now put you in yellow.). I also disagree with #372, where you hop on the copykat wagon because he hopped on my wagon (sensible reason).

Huh, where did that vote on copy even come from?

Vota, this doesnt get your motor going at all? Not even like a shock of life through that turgid tool?

I've played more with Brass than almost any other player on the site except for The Worst, so I hope you can understand that my meta-read on him contributes to it as much if not moreso than your meta read of Freddie. He was very curt and brief with posting his views and I've never seen town!Brass be so cagey about explaining his reasoning, yet I seen scum!Brass be very low participation and then replace out. Town!Brass is typically a town leader who not only has good reads, but is good at explaining them in ways that effectively builds pushes.

Why? There's WAY more content from your slot now than there was when I really really really wanted to lynch there, enough so that your interactions with Freddie make me want to re-evaluate when I can, so I am pushing a different slot that I scum read, especially since it has a replacement who hasn't contributed AI content or enough content to go into day 2 with. Besides, I said that while I'm de-prioritizing this game, I'd be checking it before time runs out and can move if town really needs to consolidate.

your reads are either fabricated or complete dogshit

osuka sinks further into the scumpile. calling people's posts shit is neither a way to win them over nor to prove a case. seems like some AtE bullshit, except it isnt remotely appealing. what are your thoughts on brass/wave here osuka?

im not very convinced that tuxedo flips scum though. i think thats not a bad lynch because of information gained (there are a lot of meaningful interactions around that slot), but i dont know if its worth the chances of a mislynch there. that slot currently resides solidly in nullread limbo for me

i vaguely recall brass being town-ish in some uncertain way, but i never really had a strong read there. wave has literally 13 posts, only 3 of which are longer than one line. hard to make a read on a slot like that

that's a really low info lynch, even if it is for a slot that admittedly has a good chance of flipping red

i can go back and iso brass if youd like me to reassess. just let me know if it's worth the time and effort
