i have a feeling this should be telling me something but i am not quite sure what that something is. interested in any and all interpretations.
in any other game, i'd say 989 is scum soft-defending a misyeet wagon in a way that won't actually stop it, but in a way that will grant them towncred once it flips green. except that is impossible because scum can't know if someone is green or not. rip.
i don't have much to add
untill taly and bulge answer me

I think I’m going to just vote Plus? More in the interest of keeping things moving than anything else

that was supposed to say slightly*.
while you're here, what's your read on me, other than the ~positive vibes but could be scum~ box?

Great Idea is the game i played with him before. very similar pattern of d1: shallow play that at least had a vague pretense of trying to engage with the game, d2: totally giving up and begging for the noose.
noting that this game seems to be stalling out again, presumably because scum are content with the status quo once more. trying to figure out at which point in the day this wasn't the case and i think i'm coming back around to Klyne scum again? definitely feels like he becomes significantly quieter when attention isn't on him, which is a worrying tendency.
i hate that the scumread i'm actually confident in is on the wrong team so i can't push that today, because i feel like i'm being deeply ineffectual here. like, "we want to hit a wolf today" is great in theory, but now i'm kind of wondering if it wouldn't have been better in practice to kick the wolves can further down the road and just roped the obvious mafia today. ehhhh.

I've thought about this a bit. I think your case on MC was definitely the best thing produced today.
I guess the next question is whether more than likely hitting scum is better than taking a guess at a wolf. I go back and forth on that. I suspect if we nailed a wolf, we could figure out quickly who their partner was. But I do think we have a greater chance of missing in a wolf targeted shot today.

Of course, the PJ wagon looks fairly townie again. So that may be a reason to just stick with it

you know what, the only reason to aim for wolves over mafia currently is the fact that they get a night kill, and if we just take one of them out? they still have a night kill.
so it's actually only better to go after a wolf today if we are confident that we can nail not just one of them, but both of them. and i don't know about the rest of you, but i am really not confident in that. should have thought more about this sooner.
VOTE: Murdercat

As much as I think Murdercat is mafia, I get the yuck feeling when I read 1008. I feel like I'm being sucked up to by username while pushed by their partner. That kind of makes sense if Plusjoyed is their partner. Holy crap.

Gonna be hilarious if all the scum replaced out of this game when it isn't exactly a setup that favors town
Titus how are you voting for Plus here after what happened in our last game with him

I get the votes on Plus but I think he could easily be town here.

i guess his execution might be necessary in the long run, because i am not confident enough in my townread of his early play to be happy with him surviving endgame. but it still feels like a cop out right now.
gut feel from the last couple of pages has town stocks for clidd rising, town stocks for DV falling
Oh username already said it. Exactly this

I think VP, Datisi, Klyne, and clidd are all pretty towny
That leaves
Ahsoka (Taly slot)
Titus
iamausername
The Bulge
PlusJOYED
DeasVail
I like username and plus more based on the last few pages. I think I overreacted to username jumping on me with Titus, it probably don't make sense for both of them to push me like that together. Titus is continuing to do none of the night kill analysis or iso reading I would actually expect her to be doing and is instead finding reasons to push me. Obviously it's easier for me to evaluate the push but still. Plus on the other hand could still be scum but he's done that as town and we should give the replacement a chance. That leaves me here:
Ahsoka (Taly slot)
Titus
The Bulge
DeasVail
I want to see what the Taly replacement comes up with.
