I've been weighing up between BP, Skitter and Kanna. My gut says do Billy today and then if that's incorrect, Skitter D3.
Menalque town and Kanna town enough not to consider today is a good starting point. I think dismissing skitter as scum for the end of day stuff doesn’t quite work since that’s not a great way for her to play it as Town either. She gave intent on a wagon and then as far as I could tell was never back to hammer it, which is potentially disastrous Town play. If these are the only things keeping your vote off skitter, maybe reconsider them? There’s also a really neat exchange starting at 480 where Menalque pegs GBJ as scum for meta reasons and skitter is uninterested in listening that I think is telling.In post 879, Billy Pilgrim wrote:Micc I was voting your slot, because I started the day thinking that Mena is most likely town. I've also got a townread on Kanna.
So I worked from the pool of (Map Wolf, Non imh (whose play was less than impressive yesterday), Uncrowned, and Skitter). I came into today mostly discounting Skitter because of how EoD went down. I dont think that GBJ would have claimed VT at deadline when it was basically set up to hammer your slot if GBJ claimed a pr. Theres been conversation about this today. Skitter not being around at deadline is the only thing that makes me think this is still possible. I also dont think a scum!Skitter would have let the day end without her on a wagon.
Either this page or last page I went through a reassessment of Map and dont think hes scum. So that leaves me with a pool of Skitt and your slot.
I'm starting to forget why I had uncrowned out of my pool though. Imma reread at some point today to check that out.

You didnt wait to see if I got ccd?
Skitter can you walk me through why Town you doesn’t just hammer l-1 non at this stage?In post 830, skitter30 wrote:if i'm scum who sees that non is at l-1 when i check in on friday morning i just hammer after seeing he all but claimed vt
and then we're at night and there's still two scum the next day
that's like infinitely better than getting townpoints from billy day2 as lone scum when i'd have to carry the next three days to win
Why would I? If you get CCed, we lynch you and we win. I can go back if I need to.
just ftr they never picked up the role PM, ducky confirmed thatIn post 887, Billy Pilgrim wrote:In post 885, Micc wrote:Billy is a mason rolling machine
This is now the second time I replaced into a mason slot. Why in God's name would you leave the slot if you're a newbie?
Fair, the other one that I replaced had, which is why I'm confused by how often it's happened recently.In post 895, Menalque wrote:just ftr they never picked up the role PM, ducky confirmed thatIn post 887, Billy Pilgrim wrote:In post 885, Micc wrote:Billy is a mason rolling machine

Anything about this post you want to edit?In post 301, Uncrowned wrote:Yes, I'm trying a style where I push more aggressively than I typically would to see if I can get any slips or at least get dialogue going. I know I've achieved the second one, at least. At worst for me she was a null since I saw a lot of passivity in her play that can translate to either alignment. After our interaction I decided to move on to Skit.
I'm only leaving the possibility open on her since I don't really know her town play. I think it would be a bit rash for me to jump in on her and peg that as a 100% scum move when I've never played a game with her and do't know what her scumrange is like. I bring it up as something that could become relevant in the game later, because to me it seems like somewhat pockety behavior. I don't think she really had a reason to jump in for either of those slots on their behalf. I let it slide the first time since I thought it would be a one-time thing. Turns out it wasn't. It's anti-town behavior at the very least imo.
As for being cared how I'm perceived? Not really. GBJ already tried this train of thought on me and it didn't work. If I'm the lynch today it doesn't really matter. If I'm lynched or NKed, D2 if I were you guys I'd be more concerned with getting something out of the less active slots (Non Imh) or those demonstrating passive play (GBJ) without really having a reason to do so.
The unvote on BP still pings me weirdly. It's like a "Oh shit I don't want to be involved in this" unvote to me, especially since the dude only had 3 votes on him. Not a big deal. The reasoning for it ("I don't want a lynch to happen while I'm away) is just... eh? Why does that matter? If you have a read on him, let the wagon develop and more info come out. Even if he got put to L-1, 9 times out of 10 he'd be given time to claim. In those 9 times the worse case scenario is you're lynching at VT, unless the slot for whatever reason decides not to claim.
Just interesting stuff all around that I think needs more attention than my prodding. Maybe it looks different to you guys because you don't know what role I am, but I'm not gonna bother trying to look good when I've got time to question other slots who, if you ask me, haven't really given good responses.
