I'll TRY to put something out but tbh I've just had a massive wave of apathy for absolutely everything, so like, just hammer whatever if your mind's made up lunar

I feel like that probably comes from Mafia. Not the apathy, but the lack of caring about getting hammered.

Gamma knows I’m not scum and is finding it hard to fabricate a convincing case against me. He’d rather just be hammered than spend time and effort making a case only to lose anyway.
He was banking on me voting Lunar as I had said i would on day 5, and wasn’t prepared to 1v1 me instead.

School has just really been taxing my mind. I also tend to agonize over endgame scenarios as scum, so tbh if you want to call my lack of care about being hammered AI it would more likely be town indicative https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=84&t=84404 that should be a decent example of such a situation, but I have a coupe more I can reference if you care for it

That's irrelevant. Your play in LYLO that game was similar to your play here.

Thanks
But honestly Lunar is surprisingly good as town
Sorry about the shenanigans with stating intent on you today Luca. I was concerned that neither of you was really Towntelling, so while I thought it had to be Gamma I wanted to put pressure on you and see if you obvTowned. You pretty much did. I gave Gamma the same chance, and he didn't. I think both sides played pretty well, but I think if not for a few gambits run by Town, it could have been an even cleaner win for Town.

Every time we pressure someone they turn out to be Town, or get protected by a claim. That suggests that the scum are in slots we aren't pressuring, or are protected by claims.
I think these people are Town: Luca (a grudging Townread, I think he's overconfident and should chill out a bit), Frogster (same as Luca), NoPower (or am I confused?), OutWorldER, Grendel. Galron I go back and forth on.
That leaves these people: bugs, Mom, Gamma (and Gamma is probably town), and Trendall.
Without a major revelation I don't think I want to eliminate outside of those four today.
In post 1032, Lunar Martian wrote:My hero solve looks something like: NoPower, bugs, Trendall. Throw in Mom for an extra, and put Gamma in the Town boat.
I think I'd prefer to kill bugs or NoPower today, and I don't know how many other people are willing to go bugs, so VOTE: NoPower
What I'm learning is that maybe I should trust my process more and my gut less, because the process yielded all three Mafia in a pool of 4 on day 2, while the gut gave me one.

At least I didn’t get screwed by the setup this game.

Yes, Lunar is one of the better new players I've seen on the site recently as both alignments. I was paranoid of them as they played well as scum in a previous game with me where I didn't suspect them at all until the end.
