Open 598: GAME OVER

[sthar8]

We stick the three scummiest players in a circle. Everyone else is paired. That way if scum choose to use their PGO for value, they're eliminating mislynches along with losing a member.

Wait no. pushing do hard for a lynch this early us scummy as hell. I'd the first day. How are you so sure of persivul, green?

VOTE: green canyons

Wait no. Someone's way too eager to hop on the easy target

VOTE: you got schooled

Wait no. Ugh. This is hard. Too many lurkers in this game.

dont know how to feel about this, ~reading on.

[ZZZX]

are you scum?
why are you town?
who do you plan on visiting tonight?

no,

cus I am ZZZX, ZZZX is always town.

Idk, Its a secret

[ZZZX]

Let me claim before you lynch me.

@green canyons, who are you quoting? you look like a forced attempt at scum hunting and not actually scum hunting.

VOTE: green canyons

The "three votes in rapid succession" entrance reads like a forced attempt to not look rigid and scummy, but fluid and townie.

I agree how green felt forced, anyway page 2 is done, reading on (and sorry in advanced for the hail of posts.)

[ZZZX]

Did lane just out the scum team? Lane, what's going with you in 34/44?

has anyone ever tried this? I've always wanted to do something so stupid it couldn't possibly be true lol. But I'm too scared to.

what do you mean what's going on with me? I was voting gc simply to call him canyons again. Just being stupid.

And I think the ika wagon is solid. I am allowed to have more than 1 scum suspect without being sure they are partners.

Surely not all of your suspects have to be partners right newbie?

Newbie is making a lot of sense right now.

VOTE: Lane

not sure how to feel about lane at this stage. but that post gave me mixed vibes.

but I dont like YGS's jump on it. major scum vibes.

P3 done~ reading on (will prob just do 5 pages and do the rest later)

[ZZZX]

Solid wagon on ika = ika is a scum read.

Don't particularly care how you want to word that. That's what it means.

If one of your scum reads has a wagon, you should probably join it. That's how we lynch scum.

Watch. You're about to fall victim to it.

UNVOTE: lane
VOTE: YGS

You're being completely non-responsive to my question, and instead are focusing on whether I used the word "suspicion" or "scummy" when they both mean the same damned thing. Which we appear to agree upon, but you nonetheless ignore the whole point of my question (of why, between two scum reads, it was suspicious for lane to vote one over the other).

Hmm, are you scum GC? I had you as town but I'm not so sure now.

Is your bus going wrong? Does it look like your buddy might actually get lynched? Are you unsure what to do? Then look no further, simply call '0800 I-need-a-really-bad-reason-to-get-off-this-wagon-I'm-on' and we'll provide that bad reason you're looking for to stop bussing your buddy!
*End Advertisement*

I answered your bad question. You're either not reading or 'see above'.

You can be suspicious of somebody without thinking they're scum. This is obvious. I feel you should know this.

Newbie is scum, but got off scum partners ika wagon to avoid lynching a partner but putting it out there that they once supported it

Hey I haven't read anything but

I believe optimal strategy is to plan out our visits tonight and to have two players visiting different people.

Player A and B visits Player X
Player C and D visits Player Y
Player E and F visits Player Z
Player G and H visits Player ?
Player I and J visits Player !

This prevents PGOs from activating without confirming them as scum and allows cop to get reports relatively safely.

It also may be optimal to no lynch and then do that twice?

those first few posts are... bad...
i like bbmolla's plan for now, needs some work on it but its a good start, i like itz

[ZZZX]

Solid wagon on ika = ika is a scum read.

Don't particularly care how you want to word that. That's what it means.

If one of your scum reads has a wagon, you should probably join it. That's how we lynch scum.

Watch. You're about to fall victim to it.

Looking for a quick lynch is scummy.
VOTE: YGS

Wagons are good for the game and are in no way scummy.

I agree that wagons are useful for town. However, lynches on preliminary information probably aren't.

I know this gets into the argument that wagons don't have pressure if they're not going to lead to lynch, but with 14-day phases, that's just how it is.

Lane is probtown

@sthar eh.....

and Pers is now offically my first strong scum read ! grats

[ZZZX]

Lane is probtown

Another solid post. Your mouth says one thing. Your vote is saying another. Sthar8 jumps straight onto my wagon without saying anything, then says I'm probtown after a couple other people say I could be town. But doesn't do anything with the vote?

Does anyone know this person?
VOTE: sthar8

You don't agree that him saying Lane is probably town while not doing anything to change his vote is pretty scummy?

I think it's sthar being lazy.

not liking newbie, finding molla's towny for now, also... lane is null atm.

that is it for now.

[You Got Schooled]

@ygs, can you not be so damn concerned about people's reads on you and focus on scum hunting if you're town? You're focused way too much on that. I don't even know how many times you've asked people to explain their reads on you. Frankly it concerns me enough to put you back into my scum pile. Do your part and fiND scum. You don't even have votes on you and you can't stop focusing on how you're peoples scum read. I mean I can see if you had 3 or 4 votes yeah, be a little defensive, but this is weird as shit without a single vote

point noted, so my point for now is, a) somewhere, it looks like scum decided we were an easy person to push into the scum-pile without much explanation, which is interesting as it lets them town-read other people. It's also interesting to me that, like you said, that it keeps being said without a vote. Right now I'm wondering if/why this changes if newbie gets lynched today.

GC and one of Persivul (although I'm not so sure anymore), ika, and sthar.

Talk to me about pers and ika?

@YGS:

self awareness is alignment indicative?

I find this one interesting, because it was an accusation leveled at me in my last town game, but I really didn't like the post as it all seemed to be about how what he thought would be perceived, rather than what the actual thought was, which doesn't feel townie for me. However, subsequent posts, such as 572 are making me feel a little better about the slot.

not liking newbie, finding molla's towny for now, also... lane is null atm.

that is it for now.

This catch-up is a little weird: a lot of quotes with not a huge amount of analysis. Explain your lane read for me, 'coz Lane was our first town-read (me and my other head).

Actually, zzzx, and everyone on Newbie: can someone summarise the case for me? I'm starting to feel less good about the slot, but my partner is pretty good about it, so

Came for the Anti sheep, currently staying because I'm finding the sthar push bad. Trying to determine basis of bad push.

will do after i finish my reading of the game, but i found newbie just not taking a clear stance and just slightly engaging with everyone without commetment to ... anything. That feeling is usually from scum.

[Antihero]

[ika]

oh, ika

Why'd you have to do something so scummy?

[Green Crayons]

It wasn't the hammering.

It was the hammering without a claim.
