- Puff went from thinking it was 1-1-1 to randomly switching to 3-0-0 in 299 with iff reasoning. Unnatural progression. No non-OMGUS reads yet. BUSSING/distancing.
Ame
- Conspiracy theory is townie. Poking Kanna is townie. Naked suspicion of clidd is iffy, dodged my question for why she found him suspicious.
Cat Scratch Fever
- Russian Blue. Poking holes in clidd's reasoning was townie, spotting Adorable as scum is townie. Some of her questioning feels
COLD.
Daenerys and Dragons
- Townslips in 16 and 19 look more fake than real. 231 is scummy in the way it takes Doro's joke too seriously.
Hoctac
- Sometimes misreads his role PM. He's probably fine, but there's always the possibility. Nulltown.
Kanna
- Newbtown. Her paranoia and coming around to thinking there's 2+ scum in Group 1 is natural.

But Albert is acting way too obvious for that??
thats exactly what i'd expect scum!albert to do. it's lower effort, and it plays into the WIFOM very nicely
So you're thinking scum want us to lynch group 1 and Albert is the one in charge of aggressively pushing that? And that's why he's in the smallest group maybe? In case that backfired?
I haven't decided. I'm leaning towards that not being the case, though. I think 2-3 scum are in group one.
The scenario im talking about is if scum distributed 1/1/1. Scum in group one advocates for group one annihilation. Albert in group two advocates to kill group one. And the scum in group three could do it too
I can feasibly see Albert!scum opting to choose to do a super obvious scream that group 1 is obvscum (as WIFOM), but im leaning towards that not being the case
Ok that makes a lot more sense. I still don't think Albert is scum and I don't see any likely strategies with him as scum and using this playstyle. I could see this but that's banking on it being 1:1:1 which is an assumption I wouldn't make a scum read over
you seem to only be scumreading Adorable in 365, so what's changed since then that you have two more scumreads now? and also, how does that impact your theory about scum putting only scum!adorable in group 1?
In post 358, Adorable wrote:You also admitted you think there are 2 scum in Group 1 but you don't want to vote there. The two scum in Group 1 look like to me they are the ones who want to vote in Group 2 or Group 3. You are a player I have been leaning scum on. So you think I'm scum who wants to vote myself off on day 1? What kind of logic is this?
I don't have two active scumreads on people in group 1. I think it's rash to vote there without having at least two strong scumreads in group 1 on the offchance scum did actually only put 1 scum in that group.
I'm entertaining the idea that scum put scum!you and only you into group 1, and that's why you want to vote yourself. Who is your other scumread?
Why are you still leaning scum on me? Do you disagree with my analysis on your entrance posts?
If you think it is 1/1/1 and think I'm the only scum in Group 1, then this would mean my scum buddies who put only me in Group 1 would expect me to do some power wolfing taking control of the game thread and my scum buddies would have high expectations of me being really good pretending to play as town.

1/1/1 is smart if you think you can deceive town into getting rid of group #1 using the three voices you have

Even if we think there are 2+ scum in group 1, I think lynching it would be bad gameplay. I haven't tried to do that math, but I suspect that going that route has a poor EV relative to the others.

No? Scum would want to get group 1 lynched in that case, and you would be deliberately playing scummy. Why would you think the opposite...?
As it is, you’re pretty scummy. I’m not sure if you’re deliberately playing scummy though.
In post 357, Adorable wrote:The players in Group 3 are scummy and I was also going to vote there yesterday and then I started to think scum must have looked up the players completed games which makes me think the players on Group 3 get scum read more often than me.
So why not put you in Group 2 if they really don't want Group 1 lynched?
Do you guys think you’ve done enough to be townread or nah

why would they place all of their members in Group 1? The go big or go home strategy would be to place 0-1 member in Group 1 for a quick victory. I've been thinking how I'd go about this, and this is exactly what I'd do. MT stated that it was obvious to her that town would push for group 3, but I think it's obvious town would push for Group 1 with the idea of getting 2 scum. Moths fly to the brightest flame and G1 is like so wifomy in-your-face goading us to lynch there.

i
want to go big or go home (right now, by voting group 1). i still think 2+ scum in group 1 is what most people would do prediscussion. it's actually quite safe because you can blackmail town with how many lives they could potentially lose. i personally find 3/0/0 appealing, but (⍪_⍪)
my point is there's *at least* 2 scum in group 1, why do you keep focusing on 3/0/0?

Why is adorable town for not being aware of the setup but not me?
This feels like a very contrived reason to townread Adorable.

I wouldn't discount all scum being in group 1. I think, provided the scumteam are a group of people who don't like playing scum, they might choose to go down together (worst case scenario).
1/1/1 seems like the safest option, but kind of demoralising if they know one of their guys go down no matter what they do.
after thinking about it i think there's *probably* at least 2 scum in group 1
i do agree with scumhunting though. I think our priority sorts are groups 2 and 3. Ame's idea is interesting, although it's one of those ideas that requires everyone to be on board with and i'm not sure if that will be the case
This is what I'm referring to as the go big or go home take. You stated here that you think scum might choose to go down together. But if that was the type of team we had, they would go 1/1/1 not 3/0/0.
I think the 2/x/x is very reasonable and I think likely. My concern with you isn't about what you believe (I'm not interested in sorting out which of the scenarios we are in), it's your reasoning in line 1 that is.

Raya seems scummy to me, Charmander, i guess i can see being town based on nuance + group assignments.
what are your reads on them? why these in particular?
