Could you elaborate on your struggle with slogging on. What makes you feel that way?

You answered before I even asked.

I think it comes down to the lack of a strong scumread or two. I usually generate reads via interaction and there's a swatch of players who it's been almost impossible to interact with because they're not around. The ones who are interacting more closely are varying shades of townreads.

That's very natural. I do that a lot too.

VOTE: Shielder

I didn't see that conclusion, but supposing you're right, I guess there wasn't enough suspicion for him to want to vote Caster.

inorite?

That was me trying to say "I'm wondering why, if you're right, he didn't VOTE Caster if he thinks Caster is scum", you know, what with the wagon on Caster and there being enough support.

I guess. Not a big deal to me personally as it felt like they were behind and trying to piece things together and not confident yet, but I could see if you have a problem with that.

Noted, thank you.

In post 1989, Servant Moon Cancer wrote:Thinking flavour is going to match 100% seems ridiculous. Do you think there are zero investigative abilities in this game or something?

Of course there are investigatives, you snarky clownfuck. This is a Upick. And there are any number of servants for whom that role fits fine. I'm not talking about a 100% flavor fit, I'm asking if it's plausible that Shielder fucked up their claim. Again. I'm fairly satisfied they did. Try reading my post next time.

In post 1996, Servant Foreigner wrote:Shielder's claim seems to hold up to my scrutiny. I think all of the claimed abilities plausible to likely, with the exception of Lord Camelot - Fortress of the Distant Utopia, which I see as unlikely... but confirmable

Confirmable isn't AI. Opinion noted, however.

I don't think the points they raise are bad though of course you know my bias there by now. Wish they'd say more but I could say that about half the game presently.

I disagree with this and your 2068. Lancer mysteriously swapped their read on you in 507 for ~reasons~ after they'd been arguing for you-scum three posts prior (459). That looks anything but organic to me. WRT them talking to/about Caster, Lancer's 1967 had some meat to it, the first content we'd seen in some time. However, Lancer only expanded slightly on what I'd written about Caster, essentially citing "hey, yeah, I thought they were town too, but IDK cause there wasn't anything to me townreading Caster except goodfeels". No town points for something I'd literally just said. I don't give them any points for the interaction with Caster thereafter, either. What is it you're seeing that I'm missing?

Pedit: My god the pedits. Fuck it. VOTE: Shielder

My assumption was 507 was them hinting they thought I might be town because they had a guess as to who I was and assumed that behavior would be characteristic of me.

E-1 or we just hammered. Not sure which.

E-1. Just counted.

Wasn't that when you were pretending to be someone else?

I don't believe Shielder is scum.

And I don't believe Caster is scum.

I'm not really sure why people seem to feel so strongly that Rider is town. Rider's reads feel pretty hollow.

Oh, while I'm thinking about it. I have a bit of unsolicited advice, Assassin. I think you should masterize Avenger.

I think we should not comment on that issue except to make sure it's been used before we hammer

Pretty sure that already happened, like, at the start of the day...

Is there something in particular you'd like to talk to me about, or are you just salty I called you a snarky clownfuck?

Pedit: I'm not suggesting Assassin claim on who/if it's been used, Caster, far from it. Just giving my opinion on whom it should go to. I'm glad to see you make a resurgence, though!

Is there a reason you threw that vote down in a p-edit?

Was planning on doing it at the end. It ended up in a pedit because I'd gotten done writing the last paragraph and previewed and saw a billion posts.

In post 2079, Servant Caster wrote:yes i'm so hard to kill that a whole nobody is resisting my elimination

yes that is a ridiculous scumteam and all three of those players are town

sure, you expressed one thought once

yes, i'm discrediting you, your opinions are terrible. look at this discrediting! hey everyone berserker has bad reads and you shouldn't give them credit

announcer: wow, basically a confession from caster there, very interesting play, let's see if that pans out for him

VOTE: Caster

This AtE is yucky and flat out not true. There are multiple people defending Caster.

Scum just don't do this post.

Smh. They do. It's the post of someone genuinely frustrated but frustration is NAI.

Hmm.

Do you think Beast is busing? Or is there a reason you haven't recently talked about Beast's attitude towards Shielder?

If they're both town I look like a shithead in my notes. We vote out one and either flips green, I wipe the slate clean tomorrow and start over from page 1. I think there's been enough pushes and prods and movement from me temporarily taking shielder off the table for us to be able to look at what peopl were doing.

hmmm. I still pretty much think this is a scum lurker game. With 2 scum in the bottom post half and with one above, maybe.

If you count Beast as a lurker, I could go for this.
