What's interesting here is that goodmorning just makes a note to himself, but doesn't actually try to push the game out of RVS. That sits with me slightly poorly, because I definitely think that vote was something that goodmorning could have more explicitly used to push the game out of RVS.
Was going to answer this, but you answered it for me here:
I agree that the RVS jump back and forth was unusual, but there isn't intrinsically scum or town motivation behind it.
This feels like a strange thing to say. ffery points out why.
My opinion remains that she is quite good at this game.
That's actually why I think AA9 is a decent choice to wagon, because AA9 will probably use the wagon to generate content regardless of alignment.
I can already tell you what that "content" will be, if you care to know.
"WHAT I AM TOWN WHY ARE YOU VOTING ME ALL THE PEOPLE VOTING ME ARE SCUM"
Not really game-specific. This is what she does when wagoned. I don't see it as helpful because I don't think anyone will take her seriously.

Nacho helped me figure out how to read AA9.
Interesting that nobody has commented about Amethyst Snowflake's miller claim.

I personally didn't take it seriously.

I really don't see a huge problem with that; something else of interest is bound to spin off from whatever transpires when she does finally show up.
That said, this is the first game I've been in where there has been so much (read: any) thought into motivation behind which player people vote in RVS and it's getting too meta/speculative to the point where it's simply not helping me figure anyone out.

I'd rather talk about this.
Why wouldn't you take it seriously?

Considering that it comes right after the "this is where the cool kids are" vote-revote post it was
A. not that interesting looking and
B. not that serious looking.
@hydra: Did you intend that to be a serious miller claim?

By example.
I personally didn't take it seriously.
It reminded me of another game I played with Mara. Not the claim itself, but the light deprecation of a partner. Thing is, GiF is a strong player so I am not sure why she would do that as a tactic.

Was Mara town or scum in that game?
Also, I totally forgot about the miller claim and missed it when I basically skipped over the first few posts >.>
I tend to be inclined to believe miller claims. It's fairly standard play for a miller to day 1 claim and it's a fairly uncommon scumgambit, so just playing the numbers makes it more likely that AS is town. If I have strong reason to doubt that later, I will, but right now it's not like AS is being scummy.

I tend to buy miller claims on day 1, too. The way this claim was made bothered me, though, like it could be an offhand rvs-phase joke rather than a serious claim.

Nope, posts
24 and
49 ring hollow and weak in light of what multiple people have said about ArcAngel's meta.

Have you done a meta dive? Has Mc Ride played games with her?

Ok. I can't think of many games where I didn't draw at least a vote or two on day 1. Except for a couple of replace-ins. hmm.
I will eventually track this down.
I'm not sure if this is suspicion?
BRO's #48 is Town BRO, I think.

I'm not sure what the fixation on AA is about.

This was my concern with the claim, it looked to me like a claim that you could back out of if the situation required, but I guess that option isn't available anymore

Out of the two posts, both are fixated on AA, and I'm going to do the recommended metadive.

MC RIDE has only one completed game.

He hasn't played with AA9 before.

How do you know that she's an obvious and easy target?

Why do you think so?

I'm trying to line all this up with your not having played any games with her at MS. Do you play mafia with her on another site?

I remember a time where I was almost lynched for making a case on her, so that's one thing. (I was mafia but whatever)
My gut says Snowflake is honest about her(their? I can't into pronouns) claim so UNVOTE:

Also MsM is right, there's no way I'd make a main account that's a cheap impersonator of a great artist
