Uh.
Yay?
That's good because if Tanner mislims me now he/we can still course correct and win at Wall.

Also proves Ari was town when she attacked VP earlier today. (and when she attacked me but that was over a misunderstanding)

But why would Luke vote Ari like that? I can understand why he'd declare intent to, but the 'Pav will vote me in time' theory when Ari was online and clearly ready to vote immediately doesn't stack up.

So with luke flipped scum I guess here's how the swap makes sense fmpov: luke thought keep was more winnable with me not in it, probably because of how the rhetoric was on d1. So he wanted to swap me somewhere. I'm not entirely sure why he didn't e.g. swap me with Tanner then confirm me. Maybe that is a point in favor of VP scum, idk. Is this whole VP-is-better-than-imag-at-1v1s thing like, public knowledge that I just didn't know or what.

To be quite frank I don't really have a good idea why scum picked the swap they did now. I'm not sure why they wouldn't rather swap me with someone in Gate. Maybe scum were just thinking about the game overnight very differently from how I would have, or I guess maybe the best answer is it was just a matter of wanting to make it seem like it was 2-1-0 and the swap was forced. I'm very curious to see why it was now >_>

Implosion, how good are you at reading VP?
Would scum!VP have had reason to worry about a 1v1 with me or Tanner if you were IC?

i have no idea how good I am at reading him; we played together once maybe half a decade ago.

I have no idea how I would have been thinking about the game if I'd been IC'd.

This rhetoric reminds me of how Pooky won vs Milobird in Pokemon. Call the other player's posts junk, buddy the deciding voter.

Didn't say I was perfect but if you compare the number of times today VP has been arrogant/dismissive vs the times I have, it's comfortably a 90% 10% ratio.

Also a similar scenario where scum had a confirmed town player pocketed.

It worked for Pooky there, if it works again here I might have to try it myself when I'm in elo as scum.

Does town!Pavowski clear implosion?
I mean, that would be unless there was no scum on the Wall on the first day.
According to implosion, Wall is the easiest game for scum to win.

As a reminder, implosion mentioned that Wall is easiest for scum to win in . I would also like to say that I never knew this until implosion informed me.
