You do realise that if I were scum, it would have been +ev for me to lolhammer you? Sure, that would have been outing, but it ensures you would've died before me.

numberq/Egix
, how do you feel about the others' wagon and potential lim?
I doubt number flips scum here. Roden's logic for voting him was flawed as has already been mentioned, so it astounds me that three people just silently followed it. (No, saying "sure" doesn't count.)

The play here is to follow my vote because otherwise I don't think there's any chance we hit scum.
Egix96, you know that you're on E-1 now. Actually, since I don't have anything against you, I'll UNVOTE: Egix96/

haha, then you're not going to be getting thoughts in chronological order of what I've read

I've had a few passing thoughts reviewing the latest pages:

RH9
, your quote posts on page 33, are you trying to give a conclusion on your reads or just sharing meta?

doesn't feel WKy, it reads as genuine because
A50
is not on the wagon and the content of this dayphase seems to be at a snail pace. Actually, I'd go further judging how
A50's
wagon died for
numberQ's
to bloom, so this reads with a lack of agenda and likely uninformed.

:D I mindmelded with
RH9's
so that strengthens my comfort with both slots.

I also don't like the defensiveness in from
Roden
because he seemed to trivialize a genuine question
A50
had, unsure what the frustration means alignment-wise.

ill also add that the game you mentioned i was mafia in was a 3-for-1, so there is a town element to my posting.

heres games where I was not town from recent to least, or relatively so
https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=82724 - SK that rep'd early, my WIM is generally lower as scum
https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=84&t=84987 - rep'ed in as a scum hydra! :D
https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=79036 - I was in a scum hydra known as
Fractured

https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=76118 - insanely large multiball where I was NKed by ANOTHER SCUMTEAM because they thought I was town :facepalm:
https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=84&t=78138 - a 2-1 game, i was elim'd as mafia and then played as town - you can actually see a pretty vivid contrast in my mentality this game
https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=76341 - was a traitor, rep'd out tho
https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=94&t=76290 - flawless scum victory ;)
https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=63741 - my first team scum game hehehehehehe baby
taly

https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=84&t=60966 - first game as non-town - won as an SK!

unfortunately, i roll town far more than scum so i dont have a lot of games that depict my recent meta as mafia, so the
"hold me to my town game"
might be just as helpful

RH9, you came in and mis-labeled Taly as scum in a meta dive, and then said Taly feels different this game when Taly had made just two posts, one asking the best way to catch up and the other a solvey-type post. Then you figure out that Taly wasn't scum in the game you quoted but you don't change direction on Taly.
In post 843, RH9 wrote:To be fair, Taly's current posting feels different to that of when he's Mafia.
How can you get a feel for Taly with him posting just twice. Shouldn't you be reading Gamma Emerald, the player that Taly subbed for? Wouldn't that produce better data? And if Taly's posting this game feels different that Slaughter Hour, are you saying that he's mafia this game? And how was Taly's posting to the point where you said he was different when he was mafia different this game anyway?

So you're saying scum would trade one of their own for me? I'm flattered you think I'm that good, but the facts are that I was very close to being limmed anyway. A scum team including you could have easily banked on town hammering to maintain reputation.

That said, while writing the above I did realize that with a perfect scum game three days in, maybe trading would have been the play for scum to make. It would have put the game in ELo if I'm not mistaken.

What do others make of this idea that Egix would have hammered me if he was scum?

I did a similar thing in Squid Game, and I was mafia there. But I blame it more on being super busy with work the past few months and thus slightly scatterbrained, more than any kind of meta or tell. fwiw I don't think I've ever had a mix up like that in other games, as mafia or town.

My case on Egix is a little scattered. I guess it starts in 236. He was more or less off my radar day 2. Then today the wagons on Almost and myself are pinging me like crazy that it's scum trying to keep us off Egix. That's also where my Roden/Galron associations come up, because of their interactions with both of those wagons. If Egix is in fact scum, I think it's likely his scum buddies were trying to protect him. Which is why I want Egix to go first.

Yeah, I was suggesting Roden and Galron could have coordinated trying to mislim Almost and then myself. I do think Almost is town, and I think my wagon has had very flimsy justification for it overall, which would imply scum activity.

is rescinding a wagon he wasn't apart of. What do you mean by

I don't think scum is likely to rep into a game with a large focus on meta'ing the majority of the plist. On one hand, it can be said that meta is a mask to hide an informed perspective, but the doubt with this being true for
RH9
is that he did mis-label me in a game, and has already outlined meta reads off limited information.

It doesn't feel like he's trying to persuade, is my idea.
