Nakata elim -> Better for % of hitting scum;
Ircher elim -> Better for the game;
+1
Probably bad for the game, no elim. I regret no hammering now because I wasn’t sure if Ircher was the best elim and wanted to think more about it but I didn’t expect the current situation to happen, I really think no elim is what scum was actually gunning for - that or that at least one if not more of the 3 lead wagons had scum in them.
So, either scum was in Ircher/Nakata/Infinity or it’s in scum’s interest for mech reasons to no elim, because it doesn’t make sense otherwise that scum would be okay with this. If one of the 3 top wagons was on town/or an elim wasn’t bad for scum, this situation wouldn’t be happening,

i still think the ircher/infinity/nakata pool is wrong, is there any other reason they are grouped together?
Unless Norwee is right about scum wincon being no elim, then why have we still not gotten one if all 3 are town?

Genuinely going to better doing my own thing aren't I...
If enough people are online in the next 13 hrs, maybe we can get an elim on Nakata/Ircher/Infinity. My current order of preference but I’ll hamner any one of them just to get an elim.

VOTE: Nakata
I don’t believe his Tweetie sr but I can move to Ircher or Infinity if that will get us an elim.

As was said, there is plurality elim in deadline Amy.
So it will probably be an lottery of which runner up wagon flips. Assuming it was more than one. (I remember Ircher being E-1 at least.)
If there's no majority by the deadline, the person with the most votes will be sentenced. If multiple players are tied for the most votes, the player who reached the count first is sentenced.
what's frustrating you exactly? do you have a scumread?

this game has a weird vibe to it. i don't know if that means the majority is actually scum, though.
i don't know Ircher that well, but deciding to play this way doesn't seem totally out of character for him. i still think it could be a scum tactic though. but i'm not sure it's indicative of game weirdness as much as Ircher weirdness.
Infinity has definitely been weirdly low-energy, but she might just be legitimately low energy. Amy has felt normal, Tweetie's been normal, Tanner also feels normal, thoigh i admittedly have not been paying him too much attention yet AI-wise. and Pooky, and Ydrasse. Robert has been eh, i don't know him, but i don't really think he's been doing anything strange?
it's really just Ircher. Nakata also does seem to be making an effort not to be scumread, the "okay townreads unsatisfying scumread" thing is most of my read there, combined with the constructed reads thing and being too aware about how his progreasion is looking.
i also don't get what's frustrating Flea about the game besides Yin not being trustworthy. oh and Norwee has been pretty relatable this game and is probably one of my best townreads.

When I found that Nakata appeasement post to Skitter, I realized that part of it wasn’t scum indicative but Nakata also had extremely well thought out and nuanced reads in that game and his reasoning on sr Tweetie, similar to me and Ydrasse, plus the trs on both Ircher and Infinity sound overconfident - which wouldn’t be sus if there were actually good reasons to confidently tr either of them.
He also said earlier that he sr Infinity but didn’t want to vote her, then later that Tweetie was setting her up for a miselim. Then he’s initially okay with Ircher but then says Tweetie’s scum pushing town!Ircher along with Norwee. Meanwhile Ircher has been doing nothing.
Wrt Infinity, I wouldn’t be opposed but it’s possible she’s just out of it like Pooky’s saying.

You’ve changed your mind, you think I should vote Ircher?

like after actually thinking about each player i'm unconvinced there's this big group of weird mechanical things. it feels like it's just Ircher who was doing a weird playstyle on purpose/made a bad joke.
i haven't been paying faer much attention but Flea's play has been underwhelming. 1308 does seem legitimate re: wanting to figure out how Yin works and get workable info, but there hasn't been a lot of actual hunting and i'm not sure this is actually how the Yin mechanic works, like i said enough grouping questions and the game is still broken if all of the answers can be trusted.
pedit: by "just Ircher" i meant Ircher's behavior is making the game seem more messed up than it is. i'm not sure he's actually an indicator there's something big and screwy going on as much as Ircher's behavior making everything else that's strange seem screwy because it's a Silent Star game.

huh, my working out isn't matching tweeties... hmmm
pedit: Flea ain't getting much better. The frustration is real I am in middle finger to the playerlist mode and doing my own thing.

i am okay with an Ircher elim still, he and Nakata could both be scum and that could also explain the way the votes are rn, i think. that sort of analysis isn't really my wheelhouse. as long as it's not a townread i'm not especially fussed abt who ultimately goes at this point.
though Infinity is my least-preferred out of those on the table.
i'm kind of regretting not giving Robert more attention, in part because of Tanner putting in the work there, but also because i've only really examined the motivations of a few slots so far.
pedit: i don't get why, though. you haven't said what you're upset about so it's hard to do anything about it.
