Peace offering: I promise never to vote LLD prior to D5-at-earliest (barring guilties on her). I reserve right to state suspicion, but promise not to act on it, and the proxy vote is proof of commitment to this promise.
Still reading but page 7 threw me for a loop and I thought Bell was responding to themselves for like 7 straight posts.
But I've got arcade, lld, maybe ceph as townleans.
I have mush as a neutral read not in the nonread sense. My first inclination is scummy with a townie mask but I could see it as townie with a lapse in logic that makes them look scummy if I stretch it.
Not thrilled with std yet and I kinda think norwee rolled scum.
Mastina looks kind of ok with the vote pass off thing to LLD.

Eh? Noraa's reaction should tell you somethign.
Agree that my fakeviging is not AI, but noraa has to give you something...
I feel like scum Noraa lives and breathes for those kinds of moments. Whatever she can think of that's clever to get out of a scum read, she'll do. It's where most of her brain is when she's scum.
I can agree with this. High intensity reactions lean into AtE territory where Nora can be really effective.
That said her reaction here isn't damning, just not outside of her scumrange.

Look if you didn't want to get burned down early then you should've used your noggin before you fluffposted, now its too late and that's your problem not mine
how dare i attempt to have fun. i should be burned at the stake for this heinous crime
Fluff isn't a crime
It's the scum poking out of it
i'd be interested in seeing you try to explain this without copying LLD's homework
Sure but only because it turns out she wasn't seeing what I saw, whoops
The content of your post reads EXACTLY in theme with a specific part of Control, but its a part that wouldn't be very likely to come up in a green role PM. If you hadn't fluffposted without thinking through the consequences of your actions you might have been fine, but instead you fluffposted in a way that gave the game away, precisely because you didn't know what you were talking about. Sorry bud
This is kind of my main issue with mush's push on Ceph with the caveat being I have no idea about anything related to this game beyond the quick wiki scrub I did. So unless the founder guy kept some kind of diary and it is a CORE part of the game then this blatant flavor outing of cephrirs is just BS.
Compound that with Mush's trajectory on Ceph (which is good admittedly) and it doesn't seem believable. If Ceph's flavor was blatantly found in one of the two antagonists that were named then Ceph's rebuttals wouldn't matter. Because they slipped as scum.
That's just to loop back to the crossroads I'm at on mush. The piggyback off LLD's push reeked but I could see it as a push to get something solid on Ceph so there's wiggle room.
In post 117, Cephrir wrote:i would still like a more thorough explanation of post 80 mush
if you're right and i'm scum, then i will surely have already relayed what mistake i made to my scumteam, so i don't see what the harm could be in outing your secret flavor read
Its not a secret. Your role PM is like blatantly either Trench or Dylan full stop send tweet
PEDIT: Dragons, buddy, friend, I don't know the dude and I don't use meta literally at all if I don't have personal history with a player, your arguments may be convincing to you but I'm immune to them? Sorry, it's like "ok so that's your history, enjoy that"
Where mush calls out Ceph for flavor. He voted in post 60 but claimed to have 1 read a little before post 60.
The only post I could reasonably connect to having any flavor implications is:
So far the mission is going according to plan. No one has figured out that I'm an alien. The earthlings are... "friendly," as they say. I have much to learn about this culture. As of yet, I have not identified any Bad Earthlings. I hope the others can assist me, as the combination of my superior deductive capabilities and Earthling knowledge of their own traditions should surely be formidable.
@Arcade: no but it's a reasonable assumption. As far as I've read up on control there are just different types of supernatural entities (like classes) and then the former founder as the main antagonist (controlling these entities maybe?) So them being part of the scum team flavor makes sense.

OKAY SO TET! Anyway problem is like Ceph said he decided to do that fluffpost shit BEFORE the role PM rwas received. And yeah scum could be lying but the thing is it's unfalsifiable, so I have to accept the POSSIBILITY it MIGHT be true, regardless of alignment, which would make it NAI, or else its potentially fucking game throwing on my part LOL
SO I re-read Ceph later and there's some fucking good posts and the reaction to pressure doesn't look as bad as I remembered, DO I STILL FUCKING PUSH THAT? Cause like, it is UNLIKELY but NOT IMPOSSIBLE (or even implausible!!!) that Ceph stumbled into the one bit of flavor that can only arguably come from antagonists??? And like, if the psoting is town and my mindread slot (LLD) is saying to give space it seems like the right move is to see Ceph catch scum, bus or flame out and get yoten???? If you say I still push that then Idfk guess you suck at mafia buddy lol
You.....you can see where the logic falls apart right? I'm not demanding you townread Ceph.

Kinda surprised that I genuinely have a good readslist from literally just two pages but this is genuinely seriously actually a good readslist imo.
Pagetopping this with the minor switch of T3/Mush (Mush trusting LLD, T3's entrance not being as town as I was hoping.)
This worries me. I think Ircher and Arcade are town. Ceph as well but I admit I have the least confidence there.
I am hyper aware I have a tendency to side with slots being badgered with weak cases regardless of alignment so I could reasonably just be biasing myself into a townread there.
In post 520, Arcade Pals wrote:Roden, why do you think Greeting is the best vote for today?
I hate the RVS analysis posts. They made my eyes glaze over and it just read as information-over-analysis to me. It's typically a town tell to me, but there's a thin line between actually town telling and just LAMIST serious analysis posts.
Additionally, I don't think Greeting and LLD are aligned, and since I town read LLD I have to give Greeting the boot.
So, I took the time to analyse two players who were under suspicion at the moment and tried to understand the arguments against them and that's bad?
Half of the votes this game have either been not explained at all, or were given three lines of text at most. At least that's my impression. Sorry for wanting to make a more informed choice as to whom I'm voting out.
I also think that
Lady Lambdadelta
is town but I don't see a shred of an explanation why her being town makes me scum.
Welcome to the world of Mafia outside the newbie queue.

Well I don't know about any of those slots but I will give you a free read in Malakitty is town.
In post 811, NorwegianboyEE wrote:Knowing Irchers allignment would be very helpful in that. And i’m seeing very meek opinions, which makes them feel like scum.
Either they’re just not townie at all. (Which i don’t find very likely for Ircher) or scum is in that awkward position where they don’t want to openly townread an scummy partner, but wants to try to mislead us away too.
Like....I get this.
But how does it get you a clear picture of what scum are doing if Ircher flips town?
In post 828, NorwegianboyEE wrote:The Roden push, i think it’s good. Counterwagons are always informative, but i’m personally not as convinced that’d flip scum as i am Ircher.
So i’m still arguing the same thing because i don’t see any reason to switch and other wagons suggested so far haven’t been interesting to me.
If anyone disagrees eith me there, that is awesome. But make yourself heard, or i’m just gonna try to run the show. Because i don’t like messing around.
Roughly where I was going with this. I'll leave it loose since it's not relevant yet.
Ircher could be scum sure, but I'm not going to move there if the case on them is largely based on a vibe several players got that I personally did not.
They have to start the game on the backfoot but I don't think that's new territory for Ircher and nothing they've done has jumped out at me as scummy. If I'm wrong I'm wrong.
Norwegian/Dragons/LLD/Cephrir(honorary for pronouns THANKS AGAIN) is my town block rn so
mastina is towny but not enough to gamble the game on, the first 3 in my block are like, if scums in there im so snowed you should just lim me now loooooooool
My read there could change. Depends on Mastina. I don't really have an issue with her vibes readlist, I'm sure there is *some* depth to it but it's what I'm waiting on.
While yeah I have her as a scumread at the moment she's not an elim I want immediately or anything I'll give her the space to show townplay.
I've got an off the wall read on tictac where I scumread them because I'm not a fan of what they've chosen to interact with and not because they're actually scummy.
Which might be town indicative for them. I don't know how to explain it better or reconcile the conflict yet.
In post 951, Toogeloo wrote:Anyone else weirded out that LLD did an obvious fake vig on Noraa, Noraa took it to heart, and then LLD takes a break while Three Bears gets freebie town reads?
Food for thought.
Now I'm hungry. I could use a sandwich or something.
I get Mush's reasoning for having me as a nullread. But outside of that I've made it a point to make hard lines as much as I possibly can so this shouldn't be the case for slots I haven't directly pushed.
Also I'm active making me sortable with a minor minor amount of effort.
This is specifically what got my vote. I see scum do this way to often and admittedly do it myself (usually when repping into games).
The idea is that you throw the bait out for someone to bring up a topic that is relevant to *them* and you kill two birds with one stone by formulating some type of content around it, generally skewed towards the perspective of the person that interacted with you. You get by with busywork and get started on a pocket down the line.
Norwees point on the activity outside of this game doesn't reinforce that read but does add onto it.
I'd prefer the elim to be the Meg slot but the longer we go without ircher fighting the push on him the less willing I am to go against the grain here.
Also if STD is town then all of Nora/LLD/Andante probably town with them.
The alternative is that LLD is masterminding the scumteam coordination against StD but that comes with two asterisks.
*It would be super weird to see std getting a bunch of townreads and then decide to attack std directly instead of engaging with the slots townreading std
And
*Having very very limited exposure to LLD scum they seem more of a do their own thing player to reach a scum favored endgoal over trying to coordinate a scum mask towards specific actions.

I won't be on the wagon though regardless.
The first part I get and I'm partially inclined to agree with. Arcade is lock scum, but I may not be getting it for thread health.
The last part makes no sense though. If you're less willing to go against the grain, then it logically follows that you would be more willing to get on the Ircher wagon.
~Mama
Yes. There have actually been multiple times I considered maybe I'm wrong on ircher and I'd be better off voting there. Then something creeps me out about joining the wagon. It happened twice but I don't remember what exactly scared me off.

Super angleshoot.
whats the thoughts on the malacat read?
They probably would have repped out as scum if they weren't going to be able to put in the effort to contribute.
Kind of, I'd imagine they would feel worse about lurking out and getting elimmed for it than just repping out and giving the scum replacement a fighting chance.
I don't take it that way. More like the feeling of being a burden on a scumteam is way higher than as town. Scum have way less wiggle room for error generally speaking.
I'm sort of the same way (not that I would ever rep out if I can help it) but messing up as town won't phase me in any way. It would as scum however.
