And you wonder why I am hunting you down?? Would the "usual" DGB miss the fact there was no NK? My answer is NO.
Would SCUM!DGB try to fake a cheap town!slip? I think YES

You again. Tell me how many times do I have to remind you of the way I catch up?

If DGB is not the elim of the day, I will NOT rage!quit (because threatning to rage!quit is obviously against the rules, and I would be doing something like that EVER!) *Smug Grin*

@Gamma- what do you think the chances are we ever get anything productive out of that slot?
the higher the page count goes, the less i believe it will ever happen
Couple things -- did you see what you expected to see? Is there reason to believe anyone would know what you're talking about?
I saw enough to verify a theory.
Umm, that's nice. Are you ready to say what it is?
It has been said by players more adept than I.

Working theory (separate from the last post) is that DGB is 3P. Walter slot was acting 3P Day 1 and she didn't jump on it or even bat an eye. Her behavior has been different than what I've seen past games. The slip seems un-DGB like unless intentional.

I thought we had concluded that the band was a joke.

Spoiler: Catch-up Thoughts
133: TD looks like the shred given the claim. I'd support it.
134: Chkflp proposing policy shred on Walter-slot is irrational. I'm surprised he would frame it as "policy" at this point, since the slot is a scummy slot. It's the sort of move that doesn't motivate any behavior, and making it ineffectual was unforced. This is the first thing chkflp has done that does seem scum-motivated to me; I hadn't picked up on the basis of people's thoughts about anything earlier. DD points out this is dissonant with D1.
135: Somehow the above makes Bambi vote Walter/Assemble tho. I do not understand Rudeboy's 180 right when NPOM starts playing the game. @Gamma, Walter's VCA on the IKS wagon was facile.
137: I found it alarming that everyone suddenly voted for DGB. I think I was totally alone on the wagon all day before a rush of votes here.
138: I agree with A50 about DGB, though I had not thought about her play that way up to this point (except that the difference in her playstyle counts). DGB's angry response is OOC for townDGB. She also misrepresents what A50 said (i.e., feigning reading is different from not reading at all).
139: @NPOM, it's more common that she uses humor than anger when wagoned. There's more aggression mixed with the humor when she's scum. The aggression:humor ratio on 138 for her is unusually high (which it sounds like she acknowledges -- she says it's due to a perception that A50's "waffly"). I've found her scummy since D1 based on my experience with her (I've played with her a lot, though I'd been off the site for the past 3 years in terms of playing mafia games). I delayed voting her mostly because I like playing with her, but at this point there's enough evidence and deviation from her town game that I can't ignore it. (NB: She doesn't really dispute this, but instead justifies the difference by saying that strong personalities are inhibiting her, which sounds made-up to me, because DGB shirking as she claims is OOC.)
140: @Chkflp: I think Lavender is probably town (re: your comment about players in the last Baker game not townreading her). FTR I don't know what [DGB]'s talking about in her iso. @NPOM 3510-3511 is more typical for how she responds to attacks when town (but she has not been doing that most of the game).
143: DD's hysterical and apparently unprompted confrontation of NPOM feels OOC. He's felt kind of constricted for most of this game, which has felt similar to the last Baker game. But then, good catch on DGB. GE unvotes DGB for it for some reason that I don't follow (???).
I think DGB is the best shred. She has been uncharacteristically disengaged this game and tends to be more disengaged as scum in my experience with her. I picked up on this way back on D1 and commented on it, and I mentioned it again D2. I deferred going into it early on mostly because I like playing with DGB. My only hesitancy is the rush of votes on 137.
I would also vote to shred TD, but this is a significantly dispreferred shred for me. I disprefer it because I had a pretty strong townread on them based on their play D1, especially around Leia way back on page 15, and I have learned to privilege strong early reads. But, more recently, a) they are spamming AtE in a way that is performative (e.g., as evidenced by their continuing the behavior while complaining that people say their behavior is AtE <--- which demonstrates that they are aware that their behavior is ineffective despite continuing it, which indicates an intent that is other than being effective), and b) they have already claimed. So, my perspective has changed.
NPOM's behavior has dramatically changed since late D2. I no longer support their shred. They have moved into the type of posting they do in their other town games, based on my meta dive way back on D1. I have been pretty weirded out by Rudeboy suddenly flipping on them (or alternatively, becoming exasperated by them) at this point. I don't understand why any recent behavior from them would lead to this sort of reaction from Rudeboy.
