this is xyzzy, your moderator, your best friend, and your presidential alert. I'm sorry for that obnoxious noise I made your phone do a few minutes ago.

Nice one xyzzy
I was playing Pokémon go when that happened

I think double voter is town more often than scum, and the fact that he was checking the game as a hurricane approached when he didn't actually have to check it if he were scum makes me think he's town. Not a great reason, but slightly townier than null.

Do you think diubkevote is town vía general thinking or specific mod meta?

ive checked thread as scum while a hurricane was literally over my house so idk about this reason for a townread

I think it’s engagement indicative not alignment indicative
Though I don’t recall seeing much to suggest Reck actually IS engaged in the game.

i was thinking about it a bit more and i think that reck sitting on gamma emerald at the end of day 1 is low-key townie in that since he claims that if he changes his vote he loses the double-vote, the irrel lynch would have required 8 votes instead of 7 if he had moved off of gamma, which imo would have made the mislynch slightly harder to get

Im kinda troubled by the fact that nsg isnt really doing anything

Okay can you rephrase this because it’s incredibly hard to tell what point you’re making
Feels like a SHROOP tbh

basically that staying on you meant that it took one more vote to mislynch someone; i'm kinda wondering if scum would have voted like anywhere else in order to make a mislynch a little bit easier for them given the deadline and the fact that people were having a very hard time coming to any sort of conclusion

although looking again he didn't post between gammagooey being the leading wagon in 1108 and eod so this could just be a moot point (ie if he's scum with gammagooey he wants it to take 8 votes to get a lynch in and he wouldn't have much incentive to switch while his partner was the leading wagon). in this context staying on you while the gamma wagon built is kinda scummy imo

no idea what shroop means

it's more a combo of knowing you tend to flake out of scumgames (like, say, gerrymandering - you can keep up the energy/posting for a while and than you kinda petered out till you eventually got replaced; jungle republic too) + you driving the mislynch day1 and like ... not really re-evaluating upon the townflip; your posts since the irrel flip are kinda meh and i would kinda expect a townie who was that wrong to re-evaluate or start looking elsewhere for scum but i'm not really seeing that happening that much tbh

saying i should be reevaluating implies there was something associative to my scumreads, which isn't the case. i've always liked cogito ergo sum's thoughts on this:

Cogito Ergo Sum wrote: I know this is a concept floating for some reason but this is actually the completely opposite of how it works. Eddie (and Postie) flipping town simply makes it more likely that Marquis is scum - there's only 3 scum and quite a few people look townie to various degrees so it's only become more likely that Marquis is scum. If you're looking for someone and there's 2 man-sized bushes, it's 50-50 they're in the first one but if the first bush is empty, then it's very likely Marquis is hiding in the other one.

SHROOP is a shorthand for a post that because of oddness in how they're written have higher scum equity, based on the idea that scum are more likely to revise and thus more likely to make those errors.

ok what do you think about reck (ie the other person you were trying to get lynched that day that you haven't really mentioned much since then)?

still don't really know what you're trying to say, sorry

I'm saying the incomprehensibleness of the post looks mildly scummy in a way

oh got it

eh i can understand that; i think i'd have cared more about trying to make it more comprehensible if i was scum but whatever

Fair point, you'd want to convince people

still think he's scum but considering as he's basically only voted gamma today and nothing else i don't have much new to talk about. i suppose it could be said that gamma and reck probably aren't s/s.

wondering whether to pursue reck or try to go more off the varsoon rb today.

idk about that honestly

Why?

cause i mean i just played a game where rc bused math so hard he got force replaced just like here.
they cross voted and math didn't unvote the entire time the slot was alive.

im not saying its what happened here but i wouldnt say that their interactions are indicative of not svs

i also think skitter is town, her posts are more useless as scum

Math kept his vote there because of the bad push though right? Reck doesn’t think like math so keeping the vote doesn’t mean the same thing

man my fave thing is where someone goes "oh two totally other people did it in this game one time therefore it's totally happening here"

Sup guys
