That seems like a broad brush of who could be scum. Not sure what this was supposed to say truly.

Apologies if you already said this, but do you think we should definitely yeet within the neighborhood today? Why do you have cape as your top townread in the hood?

I had no reasoning other than you saying that you would.
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I'm at the top of page 100. Need to get ready for work, but I'll pick up my catch up in a few hours.

Pedit _ right but I did not say I would give reads in the hood overnight. I said if wu flips green, I'll have thoughts to give on that.

I get reading back through the whole thread is difficult but you've made 50 posts and it feels like a significant number of them have either been off-topic or moaning about there being too many posts, the latter of which doesn't particularly help. "I don't have any specific reads or thoughts because the game is too busy" looks like a convenient way to just avoid having any actual reads, you could've used the time you've spent complaining about this to skim through someone's ISO or whatever.

Nero pushed me to talk about reads. I told him I'm not doing that in a hood with a potential scum, and that it was kinda antitown to push it repeatedly.

That was all.

I doubt the hood is gonna get used much until we descum it

In post 2593, VP Baltar wrote:Cape, can you explain how you went from calling Wu town to hammering him?

Also, why did you keep explaining your vote after you hammered?
Okay I am here.

Firstly, I thought the votes were still split between Yeet and GeneralWu. So I didn't even think we were near hammer, which is why I kept talking.

Second off I thought General was town in the beginning of the game, but then they progressively just kinda did less and less and when they had traction, they were just saying some eyebrow raising things. That I felt were concerning.

In post 2447, MalcolmTucker wrote:@Yeet can you explain your discrepancies between posts , , and post .

Initially you push Fua over a pretty consistent period of time, and yet after their vigilante reveal you then indicate you got a vibe they may have had their given role? If that was the case, why were you pushing Fua as potential mafia so consistently?

I'm really not sure what to make of your slot so far in general. Early on you struck me as very town - you were boldly making sometimes baseless accusations without any care as to how you came across but that helped progress the game. But it's notable that your playing style has since changed a fair bit, you seem a bit more tentative now when it comes to making outright accusations despite us having more to go on. Your play feels deliberately more measured and careful, but I'm not sure why that is...after all you didn't necessarily come under a lot of heat for your early posts.
I thought fua’s demeanor made sense with a very specific town role vig. When they claimed that role like exactly, it just clicked for me.

Regardless my demeanor that’s some like psychoanalysis stuff that I’m not really self-aware of, lol. It could have to be with getting under vote pressure changed my tone a bit?

I am vibing with VP it seems
I dunno, I feel like this has nervous energy.

I didn't really think the progression on Fua was scummy but more was kinda a thing that didn't really make a lot of sense, but now this has me more skeptical

Can you elaborate on why you say this?

Ah, the casual "whatever cape says I am going to discredit it".

I am gonna be honest, I wasn't counting at all, I just remembered this one VC I saw and thought we were approximately there it was like you had 4 votes and Wu had 5 or something. There might have been a very quick shift in threadstate because it really wasn't that far off from where I was.

Yes wow, that's NAI, who would have guessed, even I know that, it's just called I was lazy and lol hammered because E-1 wasn't announced.

What's your read on Eyes so far? Not been a whole lot there, struggling to figure out if their frustration with the high post count is genuine town frustration or not.
Malcolm what do you think of Scorpius, they have been doing the same thing ad nauseum. I think they literally put more effort into answering a joke question then trying to solve the entire game.

Look at and for reference. Look at the rest of what Scorpius has to say, then come back to me.

But definitely at least reads should be discussed.

this is one of the things that bothers me about VP. He went from "yeah anyone would think there is scum in the hood" to "we need to purge the scum from the hood" to "Mero is claiming there is scum here"

am I just getting hung up on wording here?

Dats is the only scum hood denier in the game. When/if scum flips between VP/skitter/cape he'll look p awful yes?

nero, stop twisting my words, i said i didn't believe that there *has* to be scum in the hood because every mod with more than half a brain cell makes a setup that punishes mindless setup "specc"

i had independent townreads on all hood members at least for a part of d1

Your reads are surely going to be seen when you post them here anyway? Like, I get playing your cards close to your chest sometimes, but mafia are going to find out what a lot of us think because that is a natural condition of playing the game, and you can basically repeat whatever was being said in your hood anyway.

I don't think Cape pushing the hammer on Wu (whether intentional or unintentional) is particularly problematic given lots of players spent basically 10-20 pages desperate for the turn to come to an end. Wu was clearly seen as the strongest consistent candidate by that point for elimination despite uncertainties over their role.
