Got scum read last game because I was the only one not pushing a SR on Johnny
(we were both town)
Speaking of which, don't worry Johnny, I am starting with a hard SR on you this time. I learned my lesson

Want my vote on someone who has not talked yet. Figured there will be plenty of time to vote for Johnny in the futureIn post 72, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:So where's the vote?
To be clear, my comment to Johnny was a joke referencing our last game together. I do not actually have a scum read on him in this game (yet)In post 91, ssbm_Kyouko wrote: There's been plenty enough talk already to pick a vote outside RVS imo. Just not seeing why you're not on Johnny, not that Max's entrance wasn't scummy, but that entrance came after your vote. Your first vote was for someone who had already talked...
Do not like this post.In post 113, Gamma Emerald wrote:I think the main thing I wanna address here is the part about directly talking to Noraa
what I see as the core cause of that is that Noraa simply has the most posts so far, by a sizable margin. So it's easiest to interact with her.
I feel like you approached it defensively, when Noraa was not scum reading you for it, and I when I read through, I did not think twice about it. But for you it was "the main thing you wanna address here"In post 122, Gamma Emerald wrote:Can you articulate why?

VOTE: Gamma
As a person who moved on then off of the VFP RVS vote, I just thought it would be funnier to play into his joke.In post 157, Gamma Emerald wrote:yeah I thought like this too, it's why I voted VFPIn post 152, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:VFP's actually had movement of people coming on and off, so it stood out to me. I think at the time there had been 3 people, maybe 4 that had voted VFP at some point. 2 RVS votes on the same person does not a wagon make. When votes start going on and off like that though, it piques my interestIn post 133, ItalianoVD wrote:Correction, there were four wagons with 2 votes: Gamma, STD, Max, and VFP.

I can buy that. In my only completed game with him he was town, and he was reasonably activeIn post 176, Gamma Emerald wrote:I’ve played with Dunn quite a bitIn post 174, Lukewarm wrote:Based on?In post 172, Gamma Emerald wrote:Dunnstral kinda seems like scum
Also, have you played with them before?
As for the read, he seems lurky and also a bit desperate to fit in. The first point is kinda meta based, scumStral has a trend of being lurky.
But for why?In post 211, JohnnyFarrar wrote:Hell yeah
What do you mean I am ignoring the vfp connection? I have talked about why I moved my vote around in regards to him.In post 214, JohnnyFarrar wrote:Convince me
Why you being all buddy buddy with me and basically ignoring the vfp connection?Lukewarm wrote:But for why?In post 211, JohnnyFarrar wrote:Hell yeah
I personally have Lukereally highon my TR list.
Not sure where you got that it was a defense of either Italiano or VFP?In post 232, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:Spoiler:
... but then I read this. It strikes me as either a direct defense of Italiano, or possibly an indirect defense of VFP. I think it's too early, and Luke's reads are too weak to justify this type of play if he is town.
Unprompted? What are you talking about?In post 244, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:I know you're the one that did it, and I and I believe the rest of the thread understood why you did it. What I did not understand was the town motivation for a post explaining it off as a joke. It happened early on during RVS, and offering an unprompted explanation indicates that you felt a need to defend the action. This is what makes me think it is a "defense." It seems more likely to be for Italiano because you are defending the action that brought my attention to the reason I originally voted for Italiano. I saw the possibility it could be in defense of VFP because it could make his wagon seem like less of a big deal when you explain that a former vote for him was a joke.
It is also hard to take this post as genuine, when Kyouko is a person who literally questioned me directly over itIn post 244, ssbm_Kyouko wrote: I know you're the one that did it, and I and I believe the rest of the thread understood why you did it.

You are trying to have it both ways. You question it. You say you don't like it. You say it stood out to you. You say that it piques your interest.In post 244, ssbm_Kyouko wrote: I know you're the one that did it, and I and I believe the rest of the thread understood why you did it.

And so I think that one of those stances is not genuineIn post 252, Lukewarm wrote: You are trying to have it both ways. You question it. You say you don't like it. You say it stood out to you. You say that it piques your interest.
But also, you want to claim that explaining it makes no sense because it was obvious to the entire thread why it happened.
Ignored? My new comment was a direct response to post 250.In post 255, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:As I already told you, and you ignored, I was questioning you on the Max vote, not on the switch. I understand the second question in my original post said "why the switch," but it was intended to be following my question about why you chose to vote Max. I would think that if you had genuine concern about my alignment you would at least be reading my posts.
I still reason that the explanation you gave did not have town motivation.
Then ignored 2 of the 3 quotes I gave as examplesIn post 252, Lukewarm wrote:I just find it hard to believe that you could personally have commented on my vote swappingmultiple times (and witnessed many more people comment on it)

From what everyone has been saying about their experience with Dunn, it does seem NAI for him to lurk a bit on Day 1.In post 357, Save The Dragons wrote:i'd say i don't have enough dataIn post 340, ItalianoVD wrote:So then you’d say that being lucky is nai?In post 293, Save The Dragons wrote:my experience with Dunn in completed games is one, he was town and barely showed up unless you attacked him

You point a FoS someone, and the whole town follows
This is the main thing that pinged me for Lotus. His thoughts about and vote on Dunn felt strange. Hard to read + floating in null = the only person who has stood out to him so far. Those seem almost counter to one another. So it felt like he was just trying to justify joining a wagon, and that justification felt insincere.In post 179, RLotus wrote:From my experience with Dunn, he is very hard for me to get a read on, he seems to just float by at the bottom of null all game. So yeah, I like the direction there from gamma.
VOTE: Dunn
No one else has stood out to me thus far
In post 428, Lukewarm wrote:Also, if I am right about Kyouko, I think Gamma is his partner.
But the Gamma read is a association based, so I would only push there if Kyouko flips red.
I do not think it makes sense for him to have been trying to pocket either you or me tbh.In post 528, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:I'm town so if you are also you should think about whether this fits a situation where Gamma is scum trying to buddy/pocket me or whatever you want to call it.In post 527, Lukewarm wrote:In post 428, Lukewarm wrote:Also, if I am right about Kyouko, I think Gamma is his partner.

No one asked, but this is why I feel like Gamma is partnered with Kyouko. Me and Kyouko have a decently sized back and forth about my scum read on him ending in post 259
Gamma comes in, after the entire back and forth is over, and has this have this very quick progression on the topic
Like they are all back to back, and look to me like they are actively trying to redirect the conversation without appearing to defend their partner.
- Luke is town (263)
- I agree that this could be suspicious (265)
- But look, Dunn (266)
- Lets actually talk about him (267)
It is the weird "I TR the person making the accusation, and even agree that Kyouko seems off, but lets not talk about that. Lets talk about a lurker instead."
So, incase anyone was interested where I am at, I am still leaning towards Kyouko for a vote today because it would give me more info on whether that really was a scum partner save from Gamma, or if Gamma really is town.
Personally I think it's more likely he is town here but I did think something was off about interactions between myself, Gamma, and Noraa early on. Just a feeling.
Well, my case against Kyouko had nothing to do with Gamma, and is my stronger read of the two.In post 530, Noraa wrote:mmm I dont really buy the gamma/ssb case. its a bit far fetched. I think they could be buddies but probs not because of that. it seems really specific and things that specific aren't the most reliable imo.
How you gonna describe exactly how I have felt this game, then give those feelings to KyoukoIn post 532, Noraa wrote:that's kind of what I thought. but I think you're slightly confbiasing.In post 531, Lukewarm wrote:Gamma is more of an after thought to that one tbh
ok so I think I've settled on a read on ssb and it could be wrong but I wanna share it with you to get your opinion. I think ssb is town. A lot of their posts show this frustration that I *have* seen scum replicate but is kind of difficult to replicate. It's this annoyance that he's not being showy about. Like over the course of this game, for the most part ssb has been drowned out and ignored to some extent but 1) he's still trying and 2) he's not trying to show us that he's annoyed/upset, its being conveyed in a very subtle way.
At least, I personally feel those emotions. Whether or not other people do, idk. but I think he's town.
also I've decided that I dont want to read that large chunk of things that ssb told me to read. I dont feel like it.
It is my understanding that the L word is frowned upon. Someone said something to me my first game because I did not knowIn post 539, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:Btw, out-of-game post,
I noticed everyone is saying lim like short for eliminate? Is it nor appropriate to use the L word on site anymore? haven't played in a while. I notice even the mod says "to reach majority."
How do you define when it is necessary, because I am pretty sure you hit e-1 with someone saying they had an intent to hammer.

we either force lotus to claim or switch wagons. there's literally no others choices with 15 hours on the clock
And explain what you mean by dodgy
You are at e-2 right now with 2 people both having stated an intent to hammer you (Nora and VFP), which is functionally the same thing.In post 676, RLotus wrote:I am not trying to pull anything with my claiming you numbskulls I will claim when I am at e-1 with a an intent to hammer
@STD once the votes reached this point, then from your pov the scum team had to be on a wagon together, right? If they were split on 2 wagons, then they could have hammered which ever wagon was town.In post 1551, samantha97 wrote:MaxTheFox [2]: Gamma Emerald, Andresvmb [-1]

Honestly, if you insisted on doing a gambit, I think the better gambit would have been faking an innocent on Gamma.In post 1582, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:I was pretty sure I was correct when I claimed it. I considered rescinding at E-1, I briefly had 180'd on you but thought we'd be better off after my flip with the info from my wagon. Nobody paid attention to it though.
Morning of the final day though I was back to SRing you.
By the way, do scum win if the majority votes for no elimination for several days in a row, or is that no longer a thing? Or was that only ever a thing in Newbie games?
And if that is the case, then you should try and convince the town of that. Faking a guilty is admitting that you cannot push your scum reads legitimately :/In post 1617, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:As in I was wrong, but had every reason to believe you were scum based on your play.
