RC, I'm placing the burden on you friend. Make this less shitty. Push Oka for his bad Shadow vote, give a Creature read, do something please. Create content.
We have 5 days left and 14 pages of garbage.
I think it might be due to the fact that there was not really an RVS section thst got everyone loosened up. We went all in with the 8ball vote and it feels like it made the game motionless.
I'll throw my vote on Oka and maybe some more will follow so we can at least get something more tangible to work with.
Spoiler: My reply to 313, spoiling so it's not an eyesore for you people that will skim and read when this post is referenced later

2. Bad assumption, you not knowing our identities doesn't imply we can't be familiar with your style. And yes, obviously one would come to a conclusion of whether a player is "lynchbaity" based on playstyle and prior propensity towards getting lynched.
3. If a player's not lynchable D1, it would be stupid for scum to pick that player as 8-ball; therefore they never will be. If they do turn out to be 8-ball, that's good for town. Scum 8-balling themselves and baiting their lynch is a terrible move for scum, especially if it's a scum player who carries their team.
I agree that town can't strategize on this basis necessarily, we'll just have to be more careful sorting scummy town vs scum; there's no point speculating over the 8-ball.
4. Quote the "radical assumptions" and "motives"? I haven't really interacted with my partner about the list yet but it looks pretty obvious it's a list of "who's likely to be 8-ball as town"? Also, "RC won't be the 8-ball" is a conclusion that follows regardless of whether RC is town or scum. It doesn't require any "radical assumption" about anyone's alignment.
Yes, the post is a bit WIFOMy.
You've spent a lot of words saying this, but I don't see the scum motivation for posting a "likely 8-ball" list?
Yeah, I put a lot of words in to explain my argument in 270 but I don't think either of your head understood the point I was making because posts like 276313.
If you did agree with what I was saying like in the italicized/underlined, why challenge my points here?
What is
"poor"
about a WIFOM post having scum-motivation? I think making any
8-Ball
readslist is unhelpful, I think you being the first to explicitly focus on that angle is scum-indicative as an veils an agenda approach of play.
I'm done reiterating myself. I don't follow how you came to the conclusion of your townreads - specifically
Clemency
- you didn't list any town-game as a reference to your read there, and the
8-Ball
list implies that you're content with lynching and shelving a certain pool of players and the few reads you've mentioned reflect that list - you haven't given explanation beyond
"this person is mislynch bait, this seems like town-them"
for your assessments 241 so I can't judge that your reads are genuine as they stand.

The bolded seems to be at odds with having +/-7 reads.
If you have that much clarity on the game, then I don't follow your issue with the gamestate and/or playerlist, as there's been content and there's not an influx of fluff that comes with most large games.
If you're going to prod people selectively to do something, at least evaluate what they're doing right now and entertain the

I still scumread

even after reading their recent posts - am I getting tunnel vision here?

Yeah, it’s kind of weirding me out, I keep having to remind myself, my account wasn’t hacked.
I’m sorry I weirded you out. I changed it so I can flirt with Clemency for you.

I should have separated those. Grammar! I’m not doing that for you, I changed avatars for you, I’m sure you knew that was meant, but that was definitely not what was written. Oh, isn’t grammar exciting!

Also, Taly, I hard disagree that making the 8-ball analysis table was pointless or scum indicative. Looks like that’s just a playstyle difference you’re reading.
I by all means wanted to think about it, but I don’t expect to follow that and go for not the 8 ball. That’s part of the game, and whoever the scum did pick
does matter
, we just shouldn’t necessarily analyze too deep into it because it’s a distraction.
You all just got hung up on that part, which was annoying. If anything, I made the post for my thoughts, and to show you all where I was thinking about that. It’s good to have there. But we lynch for scum.

You initially voted us because you apparently sr us, now you think we’re the 8 ball? How did you get from sr us to thinking we’re the 8 ball?
~Nancy
No I don’t think you’re the 8 ball- it’s exactly the opposite - I think there’s no way in hell that you ARE the 8ball which is another reason you are a safe lynch
So do we RVS or quick lynch or what?
It seems on D1 the 8ball choice was set in stone.
Why would we quick lynch?
~Nancy head (in case that wasn’t obvious)
I didn't think it completely through but the basic idea behind a quick lynch would be like rolling the dice and sacrificing someone before scum has a chance to setup a lynch on the 8ball target. We would just have to hope we don't hit the 8ball but honestly it's only a small chance that we randomly lynch the 8 ball.
