Shakes head .@save the dragons did you not see what I said I'm scum this time. I full heartedly belive pav is town despite him not wanting to work with me to help me find town the rest on my list is mostly long shots I may add save the dragon. But I won't add ssbm . I may remove nathann and add my self as well. No one seems to be wanting to show faith. I'm very very ticked off I wanted to be able to win in day 1 so I had barging rights.

Seems like a mistake town would make if taking a pessimistic view. Not 100% sure it's a townslip tho and not just a derp slip, hence the hmm

i'm having trouble seeing how town would make that mistake over someone independent of alignment

seems pretty NAI especially if someone is aware of their meta
could also just be a complete lie

That's either NAI or scumslip, I'd say.
Thinking "5 of 7" as opposed to "4 of 6" ... if you're Town, you don't have to figure yourself out. But if you're phrasing it from a strictly neutral POV - from the whole of the Town - who can't clear any individual within it - then 5 of 7 works. Given the wording, I'd lean towards the neutral.
Adding the "2 of" part ... yeah, that doesn't tell me anything.

Breaking one's meta - even when aware of it - is easier said than done. Especially as scum. It's not impossible, but it is challenging. Especially over the long haul.
The complete lie is certainly possible - although if it is a lie, it's one that could be disproven with a solid meta-dive. Would be pretty risky at this point - it's early enough in the game that there's plenty of time to metadive her and disprove it, if it's false.

Yeeaaaahhhh, I'm gonna take the leap. HEAL: Cyrus
That should make my 5, for the moment:
Cyrus
Hakai
STD
Yessirree
and myself
And my "not convinced they're town pile" as
Enchant
Farren
Nathann
Kyouko
I think I feel ... okay about that.

Because when I'm town it is obvious so I'm a good candidate for the coalition regardless of my.alignment. easy to catch if scum, easy to clear if town.
And if you're scum then the coalition fails.

Kinda sorta feel the same, but they're only a couple posts deep.
The good thing about this is round 1 isn't necessarily about finding scum, it's about finding town.
Ssbm doesn't feel town yet.
Implying I will feel town later?
VOTE: kyo
This is literally shading someone over their choice of words.

Slightly +town for this observation.
In post 200, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:If someone does not vote themselves into the coalition in this game it is against the town wincon and serves the scum wincon.
Consider the numbers - there are 9 of us, it is 7-2. Vote yourself into the coalition. There are 3 scenarios:
0 scum: Town wins. Yay!
1-2 scum: from each town player's POV, there is at least 1 scum inside a pool of 4 where town has 3 muslims available. If there is only 1 scum, you get 3 shots to hit scum where eliminating randomly you have a 75% chance of hitting scum in those 3 eliminations (probability is 1 minus the chance of hitting town 3 times in a row, so 1 - (3/4 * 2/3 * 1/2), cancel out the fractions you get 1 - 1/4, or 3/4, or 75%.
And that's the worst case. There's a chance there are 2 scum in the coalition which makes it a 100% chance to hit 1 scum in the first 3 eliminations from a town POV.
Players avoiding the coalition are avoiding the thunderdome and are playing to the scum wincon, which is to send a sacrificial goat to the coalition and have a deepwolf outside to close the game.
While this is a valid mech observation it also relies on you being town.
Oops.
Why?

This observation seems more likely to come from town.
VOTE: Nathann/v]

It's not a lie, I've played many games with her. The only problem is that scum Kyo doesn't really get scumread unless you know her meta.
Thinking about it, I actually have a lot of experience with everyone in this playerlist except yessiree and Farren.

Typo.
VOTE: nathann
pedit: VOTE: kyo
I can also do this. I scumread Nathann slightly more but this wagon has more traction.

no i mean why did you vote nathann

Earlier he made a post that seemed like it was meant to deliberately call attention to the fact he was hurting himself in an attempt to gain townreads.

nathann who's on your ideal coalition

by Pavowski
Sure thing, man.
Vibes on yessirree, but that's my weakest of the 5 I think.
Hakai is townreading Cyrus way harder than I think he's earned, which is either very genuine or big scum equity. I don't think there's actually scum equity there, though, so...

I might remove nathann and add ssbm but if the 5 fail I will death tunnel her.

The only two posts I see that you could be referring to are
76 (the one with the self-hurt) and
129 (answering why when someone asked). Neither of those look to me like they're deliberately trying to call attention to themselves. The former - "because cyrus asked me to" - I could see as a possible attempt to gain townreads, although given the follow-up questions he asked, I don't think that was his motive.
