If you trust that you haven’t gotten everything wrong this game, and that Datisi is Town, then you should be looking for these little clues.
I think I see it slightly different. In a hypothetical Lotus/GC scum team, I think Mom fits as a buddy.In post 3024, Andresvmb wrote:Again, it also fits with {GC, RLotus} Scum though doesn’t it?

Well, Mom went against meyesterday and today, yet RLotus didn’t actually say that about Mom too. You don’t think that’s interesting?
I wouldn’t vote there. That’s all I’m saying. If I’m still around by the time all of this plays out, I have a strong sense of what I’ll want to do. But that’s some ways away still.In post 3029, VP Baltar wrote:I think I see it slightly different. In a hypothetical Lotus/GC scum team, I think Mom fits as a buddy.
I did falter on it in a conversation with andreIn post 3032, Datisi wrote:lotus did come out the gate pretty certain on mom being scum, no? and he didn't falter on it, but also never showed any support to max with a mom wagon. if it turns out i got roped into a 2-scum neighborhood, i'm gonna be pissed lol
I have also hard defended RTP, Duchess, Cookie Monst/Duchess, and midway when I felt they were the wrong places to go. This is just how I play. So why I am not just town with this logic? I even just dissuaded you from going for VPB at the beginning of the day. So why am I not partners with VPB?In post 3006, Andresvmb wrote:If Green Crayons flips Scum, unfortunately it probably means RLotus is Scum. I would flip RLotus immediately after flipping GC if GC is Scum. Why? Well, based on all of the pushes and what we’ve seen this game, maxwell wouldn’t make sense as a Partner for GC. I’m fact, the interactions between Green Crayons and RLotus do point to buddies, provided that GC is Scum. If GC is Town, RLotus is good most likely, and I’m going to sink into despair trying to convince myself that you’re Scum when you don’t feel like it anymore. I think in that situation I would put a hero vote down for Dunn and hope for the best.
Yeah because it is blatantly obvious that they are out of touch with the game no matter their alignment. GC on the other hand is not and I presume knows what he was doing.In post 3024, Andresvmb wrote:Again, it also fits with {GC, RLotus} Scum though doesn’t it?

I think that’s where I’ll want to go if GC flips Scum, that’s the truth. Look I’m not infallible. I don’t want to pretend that I always know what I’m doing. But something about it would certainly feel right. I’m happy taking it one step at a time.In post 3034, RLotus wrote:You are looking at a very narrow segment of my gameplay and giving me partner equity with GC, when in reality I've been doing this to people I think is town all game.

Yes if there isn't another PR I think GC is probably town and if there is another PR well we would have to evaluate between GC and the other PR claim.In post 3036, VP Baltar wrote:Lotus, what are your thoughts on what's been said about GC? Let's put away associatives and trying to solve the full game. You said earlier you didn't want to yeet GC without mass claim. Do you still feel that way?
Explain why you think GC flipping green clears me, but RTP and Duchess do not.In post 3038, Andresvmb wrote:I think that’s where I’ll want to go if GC flips Scum, that’s the truth.

Because Scum don’t have to be on every bad push. And they can certainly defend some of the Town. They have to leave enough of a window to win, while staying away from the more obvious Town. If GC flips Scum, you would have been the only person today to directly address me and try and dissuade me from that course of action at a crucial juncture in the game. If you did that to Town, I’m happy locking you as Town. If you did that to Scum, I would feel compelled to flip you.In post 3040, RLotus wrote:Explain why you think GC flipping green clears me, but RTP and Duchess do not.In post 3038, Andresvmb wrote:I think that’s where I’ll want to go if GC flips Scum, that’s the truth.

So I think I get what you mean defending GC here was more crucial than when I did it to RTP and Duchess, and therefor are alignments are apparently linked.In post 3043, Andresvmb wrote:Because Scum don’t have to be on every bad push.

Defending Scum is far more incriminating than defending Town is clearing. They’re not comparable. You can sacrifice some slots on the Town side and make them hard to flip, and still win as Scum. It’s much harder to win if you let your buddies get executed.In post 3044, RLotus wrote:What about VPB? I think you changing your mind on VPB was a very crucial point in the game, Idk if we would end up here if you hadn't. So why is my alignment not linked to his?
I do think you’ve overstated your case on Italiano for example. That was the D1 mis-execution. And I don’t remember you standing in the way of midwaybear. In fact no one tried to stop that one as hard as I did.In post 3045, RLotus wrote:You really think a scum is going to constantly try to get in the way of miselims, like one or two I understand, but it seems like that is what I am constantly doing.
