You're supposed to shoot who you think has the most likely chance of being scum. I would be upset with someone who is unwilling to do what they thought had the best chance of winning just because I (as a dead person) had suspected someone else.

I am aware that not everyone thinks like that. You are right that it would be unfun to be berated by the dead players if you avoid their wishes get it wrong. If we keep it as Noraa/Bell, then we collectively lost, except maybe UNOwen if Noraa is scum and Noraa if Bell is scum. So perhaps we should do that, but I don't think it's right to go against what you think in favor of the dead, and I don't think it's selfish to do so, either.

I am very impressed by Murder's handling of the late game if scum. His early to midgame pushes are very dodgy in hindsight from what I skimmed, though.

Need to get work done, need to stop posting..

So far,
Zdenek. Votes Pookie, Gives no reason. Don't see a reason it can't be early distancing whatsoever.

Pookie: Vague shade. . Not Vague shade. Irony posting? Not great. This angle really makes no sense. I have no business coaching anyone on anything.

ShellyC being shelly. Giving a town read too early to Zdenek. # Not sure if Shelly does this post to a partner.

Murdercat comes in and votes Isis. I can see what Fidget means. #. Huh. Zdenek did the same thing. Used it and Hopkirk town read for it. 64: Yeet Shellyc, but a joke. Not clear what that would mean here. : Lied, control expectations as scum or just....Eh? Why does town murder say this at all?# Does murder prefer rolling town to scum?

Noraa: Good vote. #. I'm not sure if a bus vote. It sort of doesn't sound like one. Reason 3) is the one that could be a little too accurate to be tvs. But the other two point toward tvs. 83. Why. Why, WHY? Sounds fair. : I don't know how coached didn't pass into her lexicon.

Nope. I burnt out. I need to relax for a little. After interview jitters sigh.

FWIW, my approach (assuming anyone is actually interested in what I have to say at the moment) would be to look for things that would
never
be said or done by each person for a particular alignment. Can you find something that I would have
never
said or done as town? Can you find something that I would have
never
said or done as scum? That feels more effective at this point.

I can do this if you want me to town case myself or scum case someone else, but someone has to actually ask me for it because I don't want to appear like I am trying to manipulate the conversation.
I do think this game is coming down to whether or not Pooky is scum so that's probably what I would want to focus on.

You asked why Pooky thought you were being coached or put up a question mark like you didn't know what he was talking about.
But contextually, being coached means scum is coaching you in their private thread. It shouldn't be that difficult to understand.

133, 134, and 135 are quite complex. Rather I've never seen that before. So that's cool I guess. No actual comment, I can't tell whose scum in those posts. But you a both suck. :P

Is this another a little too accurate to be town posts? /:

# Not sure why town Noraa isn't omgussing here. Her read on Pooky doesn't make sense in this post. She has been pretty consistent about OMGUSING later game. Or rather she omguses hard, but not when it comes to Pooky?

she seemed more reasonable at this point? I wonder what happened also, *mutters* maybe.
This is a lot of town reads to be giving out to actual town for scum her honestly.
hmm?
: Hmm. Psyching himself up?
: You see this isn't what she actually did until you said this Taylor. Rather, she ignored Pookie, but gave LLD a hard time, though on an emotional level I can understand why you would fous on LLD rather than on Pookie.
: Outrage seems real enough. Don't see why it can't be rage as either alignment tho.
: Wrong tact.

Pookie isn't here.
Murder doing a play by play.

I'm reading LLD's case and I don't really agree with her at all. But she could be right I guess, maybe? Eh. Keep reading.

#: I don't really think this sounds defensive? It sounds sort of honest, honestly.
#: I'm not sure if she's arguing it's unfair or if she's interested in sorting LLD. Though her question about what LLD typically does points to sorting to a surface extent.

[post=#240:]#240:[/post] Hmm. Decides to jump in on this. Betelgeuse.

Taking another break.

To be blunt, there's no way I ever give up 2 of my scum team like this. No one would ever BoP me, so there's no reason to. I also would never be this firm with the divide between my SRs and TRs, I would want to keep space in case it was more convenient to move elsewhere. There are multiple examples of me claiming that generally null read players like fidget were town because they aren't in this list. E.g. here

In post 4500, MURDERCAT wrote:Ok look, LLD was town for day 1 because trying to sort her preflips would be a huge pain. We really needed to hit scum to see if she would just die but because we didn't now we actually have to see if she is scum. I think there is some evidence she is scum:

- She never reevaluated the Noraa read but was still really willing to go for Toog despite her tunnel on Noraa. Yes the plan was to go for Noraa in 3rd slot, but she then shifted gears towards Hopkirk? I think town LLD should in a rage about not hitting Noraa there if the tunnel is real. I also feel like the let's be sure to hit scum 3rd slot is anti-town, but that's just my opinion.
- LLD's anger about Noraa seemed fake to me. There were overreactions there that, IMO, seemed off. I know LLD is an emotional player, but I don't think you get that angry about caught scum.
- The Hopkirk read was bad. I had hopkirk pegged as town and LLD's reasoning about the poetry was super off.
- I haven't seen any deep reads from LLD. It's a lot of surface level stuff and I think we are deep enough into this game to get some real content.

Here's the biggest reason I think we should "180" as I think Shelly put it. On day 1, in my mind there was an early D1 town block of {me, LLD, Pooky, MUSH}. These four players were generally accepted to be not in the elim pool. Given the knowledge that I am town, the odds that the others players are also randomly town is 0.376 (14/19*13/18*12/17). The odds of randomly getting a T>T>T on D1 given that I am not eliminated and I know I am town, is 0.472 (14/19*14/18*14/17). Given that we ended up with a T>T>T the new conditional probability that {LLD, Pooky, MUSH} are all town (again, from my POV knowing that I am town) is 0.135. That is a pretty serious drop that, FMPOV, means we should be reevaluating players we considered to be town.

The numbers would be different for all of us, but the general idea holds. The fact that we didn't hit scum yesterday means we need to broaden our lim pool for today as there is a higher likelihood that our initial reads were wrong.
Why would I ever do this if LLD is TRing me? Too spooky 4 scum
