i thought you nailed me/a50
i didn't think you nailed the setup
some paranoid part of my mind thoguth you might be baiting me but i guess my sleep-addled mind decided it was a good idea anyways

I had it down to a coinflip bc when I entered the thread like "lol skitter is scum" you mentioned not feeling it this game and needing time to get engaged which I thought was a soft back to Jungle Republic and mistook for a tpr claim so when you claimed vig then said you hadn't softed I was almost locked in
asking you to claim first was something I stole from Buj
I didn't nail the setup
NSG is a god

i had A50 down completely but did not think it was you
i did really dislike your hammering flubber yesterday but it was moreso in the context of "ah why won't you let me replace in before the day is over and lynch a50!". if i took a moment to stop and think about it i think i might have been able to recognize it as a scum move, but i'm not sure.
reading back you certainly set yourself up for the vig claim very nicely

-shrug-
there was no way to reasonably expect that i was baiting for a vig claim and didn't just genuinely think the vig was in the game i think

i kinda kept it in the back of my mind but never really on purpose
i kinda felt reckless this afternoon and decided to just wing it, that was apparently not the best idea
i noted in the scum pt that it might have been bait; not sure why i did it anyways

NSG softing TPR against your setup and the split second need to make a decision on whether to go for it or not was like.. 100 times more pressure than most scum are required to face during regular dayplay. It was a total "do or die" and I still think you played it well.

no she was literally never vig here, not with how cheeky interacted with a50; i didn't believe it
i thought it like ~80% she actually believed it and like ~%20 percent that it was bait
i kinda had a running commentary going in the scum pt for like the duration of the afternoon, you can read it

I mean I agree and I think she vtslipped sod anyway but it was still a crazy high pressure situation

i was actually really mad when i saw that A50 was the one to escape because he was the only real scumread i had
my thing with saying the vig would be locktown was something of a longshot that i didn't expect to actually work out

Well done A50.
If you notice I was paranoid of you the whole game because of how little you were actually contributing, but the greatest thing you pulled off was convince me you were not susceptible to human error. I never believed that that was a legit scumslip. I was like that's a TPR gambit 99% of the time.

yeah idk this game just like .... really exactly the antithesis of how i play scum and it was quite difficult imo:
-> no nks (ddj would have been dead forever ago; i just nk the people i can't pocket)
-> no bussing (i spent forever trying to figure out how to distance without literally bussing my partners and i froze for quite a lot of the game because of it because a50 really did slip day1 and a bunch of them were kinda scummy)
it's basically: lynch 5 in 8 people, there are no nks, and if any of 5 people die at any point you just lose
and altogether i kinda froze for a lot fo the game and couldn't figure out now to interact with my partners in the short term without making myself look bad in the long-term when they inevitably flipped, especially since i knew i would have to deepwolf here to win most likely

yeah maybe i should have just kept going but when nsg kinda laid the setup out i was just like: yeah idk i literally have nothing to say to that
the main reason why this game was playable was because it was closed and she kinda took away that advantage
but @nsg that was pretty impressive, good job!

yeah i'm a *little* bit frustrated that i fell for it given that i recognized the possibility that it was bait :/

yeah i spent quite a while trying to figure out how to distance without, like, actually bussing any one of 4 different partners, it was a little bit tricky
