This is one of the most unnecessarily frustrating interactions that I've ever seen if all these slots are town.
My top townreads consensus are all going
"LET'S LIM
MURDER/BLITZO/NOBODY AT ALL
"
Am I high
Someone help

What do you want Taly? Whats your option right now?
and Thanks <3 It's a game, it's meant to be fun ultimately and I think people forget that sometimes (^_^)

@BM - No.
You have posted next to nothing in the way of reasoning and it's impossible to figure out where you actually stand on anything.
That is not an acceptable answer.
Nor is it acceptable to say that I've been talking around you when I've been trying to engage people almost since I've started playing the game.
I actually think this may be the first time we've interacted at all which is way too long at this point and I'm definitely not okay with that.
If I'm wrong on this somehow, even though I'm almost 100% certain that I'm not, then feel free to actually point out where you've explained all of your reads because you haven't, iirc.

BM I can't get over how your reads seems to be structured to townread people townreading you and scum read people scum reading you
It's not necessarily scummy but why

Acceptable answer? You didn't ASK me anything, which was precisely my point. I called you out for not showing any evidence of trying to solve my slot, and your response was to turn it back on me and double-down on the argument that my simple posts are too difficult to understand and that means I must be scum.

you're "almost 100% certain" I'm scum, despite yourself admitting we've never interacted, and not making any effort to do so? There's also a real lack of big picture perspective here - your reason for voting me also applies to others but I don't see you taking such a hard line with them. Selective scumhunting
This is too not good if you're town, so I'm gonna stick with my vote on you.

I'm not sure which way around it was - maybe they scumread me because i scumread them?
I'm being voted by:
Blitzo, Gamma, DGB, Titus.
Of those, I'm neutral on Gamma, fairly neutral with a minor scumlean on DGB, scumreads on Blitzo and Titus.
My reads are pretty fluid this game, and I'm sure there's an unconscious bias somewhere and somebody is pocketting me but in general I think I have a good solid townblock.

Yeah I guess I only repeatedly pointed out where you didn't explain your reads.
Actually I just recalled the only other time we interacted and it was when I pointed out where you didn't explain your reads.
Then you continued not explaining your reads.
But I guess it's okay if you wanna keep pushing this angle where you're so transparent and clear when you haven't done even the slightest bit of reasoning.
Someone just pointed out how your reads are forming (RE - being based on whether someone scum/townreads you) and I think that's actually pretty accurate.
If there's something I missed definitely point it out because I'm just not seeing someone scumhunting tbh.

I do apologise if I don't play by your rules.
But Chaos has no rules.
And yes, the same with Titus.
what do you mean by "same with Titus"? Do you scumread Titus? or are you saying your defence of yourself also applies to her?
You don't need to apologise to me - mafia is a continuous learning experience and hopefully we will all get something beneficial from the game.

This game gets much easier for me if I believed
MC and/or BM
were scum but I'm not thinking this way here.
They're so disconnected and the OPPOSITE of bussy if they truly were S/S wanting to distance. You'd think one or both would be gung-ho on limming the other.
And as scum individually, they're BOTH on wagons LESS powerful than them.
No Lim/Blitzo
.
I'm either a complete village idiot or one of the most accurate people in this game right now.

why in the world we are voting murdercat

i genuinely do not understand this game at all but will try my best here
the bm wagon is not great. i don't have particularly strong feelings towards it, but considering i by and large scumread or nullread the people on it, BL is likely town.
after reevaluating the entire murdercat thing, i'm a bit confused on why a wagon exists there but i don't think a nolim is good here and i also think it is town driven and if i'm right on blitzo, wagonomics implies murdercat scum because of the development of the BM counterwagon so VOTE: murdercat
Try to convince me within the timespan of 200 posts how you shifted from thinking
MC
was bleeding town and that
Blitzo
- your longest running scumread - was the best lim option, to the alternative scenario of
Murder
being scum.

That feels like I walked into a bar brawl when I was reading it.
eh, i tried to avoid talking about it, and I only really bothered explaining the context because of you voting for me "because I trust Gamma". As I say, I just don't want to talk about it, or let it impact the game.

I'm ok with you arguing the point, or disagreeing or whatever. But what's actually happened is:
Titus makes case on BM
BM explains why Titus case is flawed
Titus ignores BM but continues to post, frequently referring back to her debunked BM-case.
You are always going to disagree with a case on yourself. I want to see you scumhunting and I'm not.
within the timespan of 200 posts how you shifted from thinking MC was bleeding town and that Blitzo - your longest running scumread - was the best lim option, to the alternative scenario of Murder being scum
in a manner that makes coherent sense.

That's a better way to phrase it.

@cakez - I wish you would disappear from this game tbh.
I will also note that pooky has thrown me into his townpile.
His vote is still here and we are a day from deadline.
Why do people think he's town?

Battle Mage has been my number 1 SR for ages, so it's hardly unexplained.
Stop dodging the question. Does the case against Murdercat make sense?

I slightly wonder why hypothetical Blitzo-scum would risk engaging with me here, although maybe he is more brazen than I'd expect. The hyperbole and exaggeration above are worth flagging, as is the piggy-backing off a suggestion by Cakez (which actually misrepped Cakez a bit, but was super convenient for skimming-scum-Blitzo). After I call him out for not really engaging with me, he actually makes a half-hearted cover in the last line, but is it believable? In his last post, he claimed near 100% certainty I was scum. It feels more like he was suddenly under pressure and to feign a solving-mindset, rather than town who genuinely has doubts.
Overall I think Blitzo is scum and I am content to elim there today.

2 things:
1. What the heck was behind this random assault on Cakez? Just after you'd tried to use his reasoning to your own benefit.
2. What is your obsession with Pooky? In real time I've felt like you expend a disproportionate amount of energy talking about him compared to others.

lazy answer. Did you even read what I said? Alternatively, was there any point you posting a case and me responding if you weren't going to actually discuss with me.
Titus, you are normally a lot more engaged and keen to talk and solve than this.
