But your pushing it. If it's not relevant to why Nero may or maybe not be scum or scummy, then why push it?

i'm not saying it be relevant, just that you pushing someone as scum for nothing other than their publicly claimed advertising choice is silly.

Love Potion x 1 (Targeted): Choose another player, and a target (which may be you). The following Day, any votes made by that player for the specified target will show up as normal but will not actually count, as long as there are more than three players still alive.
- This ability will be automatically removed from the game when there are three or fewer players left alive.

Vote Freezer x 2 (Day): Choose another player who is voting, but is not voting for No Lynch. Their vote is now frozen and cannot be changed for the rest of the Day. This will be announced in-thread.

Austerity Measures x 1 (Day): The following Night, every living player (including yourself) loses $100 (to a minimum of $0), after wages and transfers have resolved. This will be announced in-thread

Maybe we just read differently.

Explain how each ability could be used by a town player, and by a scumteam.

As previously mentioned, Muffin is doing a good job too.

On the whole, I want to make money to salvage the night phase as best we can. Let's lynch hard and fast

Yes, that was ffery. Thanks for the perspective on Peregrine. He's worried me. I mentioned to Cabd last night that his focus on set-up spec and mechanics almost to the exclusion of reads reminded me a little of his first/last day play in Paradox.

As previously mentioned, Muffin is doing a good job too.

Yeah I like muffin. I go through occasional moments of freak-out but overall, I like him.

On the whole, I want to make money to salvage the night phase as best we can. Let's lynch hard and fast

Then why aren't you voting?

@PV,

i can't think of a town use for any of them (outside of gambits and keeping them out of scum's hands). i can think of potential scum uses for all of them.

but you're missing my point. i can potentially see someone who... isn't exactly the brighest bulb, for lack of a better euphemism... thinking advertising those abilities is a good idea. it is something i think should be questioned, but it's not necessarily something that makes them scum.

assuming multiball
upside down has the best username ever
58liking baldeagle as of here. also liking pyro trying to figure out what's gonna work and what isn't based on the past games
71 zmuffin's gives me weird vibes. the way he's being like "you never answered question xxx" seems like a lame way to accuse someone while blending in
79 from LB seems genuine
115 good attack. liking baldeagle even more now
134 fluff. not alignment indicative, but I'm interested in seeing if upside down attacks her for "fluff" given he's doing the same for baldeagle
156 I don't like voided's "(unless it's not at me, but still.)", since he's actively trying to make his statement less strong by putting that in there. IMO it gives the impression he cares about how he looks
160 not liking prohawk atm. he just seems to be sitting around and saying random crap without any direction behind it.
164 did BB really just vot esomeone for swearing
189 fairly certain voided is mafia. the comment about a dayvig seems so fake, given the post he quoted wasn't even serious
246 I thought at first this was suspicious cause morph wasn't yelling at Pyro for proclaiming he was obvtown, then I went back and found out he was. logic holds up, morph is town for now
265 liking Garuda's entrance
284 false logic. LB/baldeagle could be town vs. scum or them both on the same team
up to 319, I haven't seen uwop yell at anyone else for "fluff". it seems suspicious since it's not consistent
347 seems like a weird as fuck gambit for scum to do
442 I like
hold on a second. in 147 Harakiri went "all in" on getting Neighborizer but only spent 90. uwop and zmuffin criticized LB for only putting 80 in order to win investigation immunity, but they weren't criticizing Harakiri for doing the same thing? I don't get this at all
474 how can you be sure of that
478 I'm not scum I'm not scum I'm not scum I'm not scum. and he accuses LB of confbias and comes up with some completely unrelated thing instead of refuting whatever arguments she had. not liking this at all
524 not the singled-one-thing-out argument plz
537 why isn't it "worth" a vote. if you see something I say better to ask about it
liking zmuffin more as of 564. he goes against what everyone is thinking way too much to be scum IMO.
618 I too am surprised that they're not posting @_@ normally I know Sakura posts a lot and does shit, but I've hardly seen anything from her so far
651 oh my god this <3 uwop jumped to near the top of my townlist with this. even though I disagree with some of those scumreads, I totally agree there's a good chance there's a few scum being really active just to fuck with everyone. this makes me think about Mhork/Voided/zmuffin even more. incidentally, I'm kind of surprised he didn't point out Mhork in this post. Pyro/LB just reads like yet another argument where they're so convinced each other are scum that they don't bother with anything else.
666 bidding on neighborizer seems like a BS claim. he wasn't really involved in the neighborizer discussion IIRC, so I'm calling the shit on this shit. you'd think if he had some opinion on the neighborizer he'd give it when everyone was talking about it.
667 dude no fuck this
687 "As far as me not saying what I said the first night, that's a load of crap." the first night? what
736 literally, not sure how I feel about this post. I lean scum for trying to cover up her sheeping of Nacho and offering a "reason" onto the wagon, when she was really just sheeping Nacho. it shows intent that she cares how she looks IMO
757 points out 2 people who aren't really posting and the main wagon. seems pretty hazardous for me
780 holy shit interesting point about the medium. it seems likely scum could get it and then, when an opposing scum dies, just use it on them and communicate that way, although it wouldn't be as efficient as outright neighborizing someone
785 asking what the point of a question is without even explaining why it might not have a point or answering the question. scum
794 wait, what the fuck?
858 so that you can lie about how much money there is and fuck everyone over?
884 no, it went for $103 on N0.
906 I'm still not sure on ProHawk. and this just seems like an excuse to go back to his towncred he got by not hammering. tho I'm srsly not sure on the ProHawk x Harakiri interaction ><
915 judging by all the interactions, I'd say Klick, Sakura, and possibly zmuffin are scum with ProHawk town
933 really not liking Klick's change of pace. given a lot o stuff was happening, the change of pace seems like a scumtel lfor me
949 this post seems like fencesitting. take some responsibility for your damn vote
982 "Fine, I admit I missed where garuda said they'd advertise that." implies you were trying to hide where you made an error, implying you care about how you look
1022 i'm OK with that
1065 I consider that to be a policy lynch. and again it seems like fencesitting
1101 explain plz
1119 yes
1137 scum fucking with the deadline just to troll everyone seems like a valid possibility. then they can just sit back while everyone tries to figure out all the WIFOM
1253 what is that I don't even. Nero comes off better here, Mhork doesn't make any sense here at all =.=
1297 now that PV actually did shit he's reading town for me

town: uwop, Zdenek, baldeagle
town keeping an eye on: LB, pyro
null-town: PV, Garuda, zmuffin, morph, ProHawk

scum: Voided, Harakiri, Mhork, Klick

I'm fine with lynching anyone who's scum or missing. this whole thing pissed me off so much cause there was so much outright brutal arguing between all the hydras and I read all of it as town v. town. keeping my eye on them in case some BS happens

plz don't fuck with me on this I'm tired and I have a headache and I just read 58 pages = =

if I die I'm flipping a table over so hard

^Holy fuck we are never ever ever lynching that, if this thing is scum we already lost.

We'd niggle over order a bit in the first three lines. The main thing we disagree with in that section is Klick. Cabd's going to write it up and post it later, but we want to quicklynch the fuck out of Klick.

We aren't townreading nero, but wouldn't put him as scummiest player in the game.

Town can use love potion to nullify the vote of a player they think is scum. Nero, as town or scum, could easily want/use that. Other town uses would be to nullify a scum-vote on a townread.
Scum would use it to protect themselves, but it would draw speculation and scrutiny, so it has less than optimal (but still useful) scum use.

- This ability will be automatically removed from the game when there are three or fewer players left alive.

Same for vote freeze. Use it on scum who is bussing or voting other scum.
Scum would use to lock a townvote on a mislynch.

Vote Freezer x 2 (Day): Choose another player who is voting, but is not voting for No Lynch. Their vote is now frozen and cannot be changed for the rest of the Day. This will be announced in-thread.

Town would use this NEVER. We get more money the faster we play, which means less discussion, so we are already penalized for more discussion time, so an "ability" than wipes out 2+ days worth of earnings? NO TOWN USE. EVER.
Scum use? 1410 has already stated it.

Austerity Measures x 1 (Day): The following Night, every living player (including yourself) loses $100 (to a minimum of $0), after wages and transfers have resolved. This will be announced in-thread

OK... i disagree that those are acceptable town uses of the first two (they're still antitown no matter how you look at it), but that's all besides the point i was making, soooooooooo i'm really not sure why you keep bringing it up or what you're getting at here?

Well, in the Death's Diner game I posted logical reason after logical reason why Baezu was scum. I quoted, annotated, investigated, irrigated, fumigated, and dilated the reasons post-by-post, over and over again.

And somehow, you were unable to understand me. It made no sense to you. You couldn't see my point or how I got there.

And you were scum.

So, I now believe if I slap you with a duck, it quacks, and everyone goes "Holy Shit you see that duckslap!", and you say "Why you hit me with a chicken?", that you are scum.

So, tl;dr, I present logical reason why Seneald advertising Austerity Measures was scummy, you can't grasp the logic. You must be scum.

...

nope

your reason is just shit. even LB, who that seanald should be questioned, knows that your reason is shit.

you're hitting me with a chicken, and everyone is going, "why are you hitting muffin with a chicken?" and you're claiming it's a duck

Yeah I like muffin. I go through occasional moments of freak-out but overall, I like him.

My only worry is that muffin was able to fool me completely in Death's Diner--even after I was given the complete role list, I kept having to check back to make sure I wasn't missing something, he came off so town.

Then why aren't you voting?

Sakura asked me to hold off on voting Nero.

Completely willing to do that.

Um, nope, it was a duck.

And you can argue that my reason is , but you can't say it's . And you haven't yet.

Me: Only scum would want Austerity measures.
Muffin: No, dumb people would want it too.
Me: These are the abilities, and how they can be used by both factions. There is no town use for Austerity Measures.
Muffin:

But, keep trying.

you're so lost

Even if, say, Right Scum used it to contact Left Scum for stuff, they still have to convince the other side that they aren't town trolling them and they still can't entirely go off of what the dead scum says. For all they know it could just be made up lies because he/she doesn't believe it's the opposite scumteam calling them or because they're just trolling.

Pere, Muffin, would both of you please just shut the fuck up and sit in two different and opposite cubicles to each other? kthnx.

Also, can someone go about setting up that big table to document who advertises and bids on what, if they haven't already?
