That was my initial take as well but scum is already down a point and town just needs two more to win and Kuti os clearly not a strong player. So it can be argued in reverse, if Kuti is scum here, would scum start off with arguably their weakest player?

Now here’s the thing, it’s extremely clear that Roden knows who I was and that is not - on MS anyway - easily pushable town and Dann knows I’m extremely difficult if almost impossible to miselim, so I find that chacterization of me to be somewhat disingenuous. I can count on one hand literally the number of times I’ve been miselimed on this site and it’s less than 5 and I’ve been playing on this site since 2018.

Actually it’s exactly 5, if you want to count a game I played anonymously but had replaced out of att the miselim took place but out of god even knows how many games I’ve played on this site, I would hardly refer to that as “easily pushable town”. :lol:

I guess that depends on your perception. When you claim to be the king of liars like your name suggests, there‘s not really any reason not to want to elim you no matter the read.

I think that it‘s a deserved title. I like good pranks and have experience with living within some.

Regarding kuti Dannflor I believe that the argument Kuti would not vote me when town stands from what I was able to assess so far in some games. Sorry if I don‘t want to link.

My biggest issue now is the thing with Vulture.

At day start already coming in LAMISTY, then silence for a while, and once momentum seems to be shifting toward Dannflor, shows up and goes "Yes, you're right, it's Dannflor, we should speed through the day and also the people doing the actual work to case Dannflor are Mafia plants doing so for towncred!"

And sure, they backpedaled after being called on it, but that really doesn't help things for me.

full catchup when I am home on Tuesday.

ive been thinking a lot about why a scum team with dann would want to put Dann up first.

because it doesn't make a ton of sense to insert the strongest scum player in a 1v1 first,

i think specifically in the case where the scum team has 3 weak and 1 strong player.

the strong player doesnt think his voice is strong enough to shield the weak players as it will get drowned out by stronger town voices.

so instead the strong player goes first in order to create the illusion that there are more townread/stronger scum players within the town and shield the weaker players from scrutiny

this can fracture the townblock.

another benefit from this would be that town kuti getting misyeeted here would reset the balance of expectations and give "towncred" to the weaker scum players who need to pass through the gauntlet later.

Wrt to the first part, you seriously have to be trolling with this. There’s no way that can be a real thought.

Well you don’t have to link but why couldn’t town!Kuti have voted you here? It seems you have been often going out of yoir way to be extremely difficult to reaad?

Totally, did an entire 180 in fact, which I don’t understand at all.

Very interesting Ari. My strongest reason for voting Dann is that I think Vulture is > likely scum who first tried to presumably push us to vote Dann by shading anyone casing him, then when that fails spectacularly, does a complete 180 on that. Also Kitty shaded both of them.

VOTE: Dannflor

In post 1072, Vulture wrote:Wolves down bad.

Not to form a wolfy little narrative but I kind of want to bumrush through this day with a Dann elim. Feel decently okay about him being a wolf, and I think maybe the idea was for someone to like, really build up a case on Dann and flip and go throughout the game, hope wolves can get up to like 2-2 and then send it home for them.
Seems simplistic but this game is ? right now.
In post 1080, Vulture wrote:Oh, no shade to anyone in particular. Was just worldbuilding a potential for why Dann, if a wolf, was put up as an option.

It makes someone look good to be able to catch the deepwolf out, just like that. So, if he is wolf, discussion is good and all but denying someone the chance to like... nurture a ""good solve"" or credit as a wolf would be good.

Then again, I also think that this setup is like, super WIFOM-y and poweryeeting Dann prooooobably isn't good either. Even if I want to, due diligence, etc. I wanna feel like the strategist here.

The content of my posts is sometimes not digestible which can lead to states of congestion

I think I don't believe Kuti was SRing me and instead made it up to be able to fit on the wagon at the time which was on me.
Maf does need to somehow work together to achieve the miselim. I believe Loki and RR could be town and furtive maf though. The 3 on KittyTacky in the VC are likely clean I think at the moment.

My reaction to this is if Dann is scum, this could possibly be a pocket because eventhough I’m leaning to Vivax being possibly town now, I did hard sr him until pretty close to when I unvoted him, so unfortunately his post helps me a lot more with my read on him > Dann v Kuti. :/

Yeah, big one is the other players. My own brain could lie to me, if I read into the wrong things. Nothing else really comes to mind. I'm guessing you have a more extensive list.

uh anyway i still just kinda think maf was betting on the fact that enough people will wifom their way into thinking it's dann (it only takes 3/7 town to vote wrong for maf to take advantage) for it to be worth the risk of taking him out

i just have a really hard time believing that maf would willingly sacrifice him here and i think that overthinking in this setup is probably likely to be bad

like imagining worst cases here

say dann is maf. we vote for kuti. okay, oops. we're 1-1 now, but maf lost a strong player who was widely townread. like... okay? im not too sad about that trade

say kuti is maf. we vote out dann. um, oops. now we're 1-1, maf was able to sneak a player out who hadn't done much, and also get rid of a strong town player who was widely townread, and did not get at all punished for that
