If I saw a wagon being led by conftown and the wagon ended up flipping town
That's the very first angle I would be looking for

@Ankamius - So you think scum is pushing the Myloninja13 or Dunnstral wagons right now?

Okay, let me put it to you this way:
Look at the wagon again, especially how fast it built up.
You're saying that scum would want to be on that wagon.
I'm saying that scum have no reason to be on a town wagon that is building up from only town. If that momentum stalls, then the wagon lags out.
Now why would scum do that? Because it's an all-town wagon that built up fast that, if the momentum is strong enough, will likely result in a lazy lynch when other wagons fail to have enough force to surpass it.
Which would incriminate only town.

I'd have to see a bit more to answer that seriously, tbh
It depends on whether either of them are scum or not, and I don't have reads on either slot.

Look at the inverse as well. If we ML lala, we'll look at her wagon for scum. If that wagon is largely conftown or town looking players, what happens to any scum who joined to push the ML?
They get spotlighted and screwed.

wouldn't uncleared town be just as scared to join that wagon as much as scum based on that logic?

no, not even close
it's pretty basic that townies are more concerned with scumhunting and scum are more concerned with survival
also, if we're asssuming lala is town, then obviously all the scum know she's a ML, but the townies who want to join her wagon would think she's going to flip red

if town are on a wagon at lynch, odds are they don't think it's going to be a townflip (or if they do, it'll be damn obvious why they're on it)

(just crossposting this over all of my games to say i'm going to spain for two weeks and won't have access to PC. i'm not on much nowadays anyway so my activity shouldn't, like, dramatically decrease, but i'll be less able to read through the game, make quotes, etc.)

that's the man from the "wine in front of me" scene of princess bride, where WIFOM gets its name from
he's saying that scum might do that specifically because it would give them towncred as a thing scum would be unlikely to do
imo, I don't think scum being lynched yesterday actually affects the rest oft the scumteam's willingness to bus very much. When you have a 3 man scumteam, yeah, losing one makes you reluctant to bus and leave it all in the hand of the last scum. When you have 5 or 6, a scummate getting MLed is pretty meh.

What is scummy about them?

What are your reads on everyone Mylo?

Scion, why did you townread Mylo but scumread most of the other inactives when you made that reads list in the 2900s?

Also, why aren't you voting Lal when she was near/at the top of your scumpool yesterday?

If "half the game" scumreads TBG as tchill says, why am I the only one voting him?

VOTE: myloninja
honestly all the actual content I've seen from him has been terrible
I'm done beating around the bush here

Okay. There is about 2 days left and Lalendra is still a wildcard with nobody claiming a solid town read (correct me if I'm wrong) but the wagon has stalled.
People need to be less stubborn and more open at this point.
