This has been a long day and I cannot promise that me posting and being drunk will not simultaneously happen in the very near future but I will try my best not to let that happen.

To clarify, yes chores my be "doing it" but we know that name flavor doesn't have poo poo to do with alignment in this game.

In a meta sense, it does. Chores going down the flavor name rabbit hole is null read for me. Honestly, him shitposting like his life depended on it is sadly common and annoying but I've given up caring about it when it happens.

It's true. I lump them both in with "shitposters who for some reason people think are good at mafia because they were that one time" category so I can't really tell them apart.

very much :agreed: with this. I think it's weird that max is sticking up for mmt, especially after coming after ypm for sticking up for me. projecting a little maybe?

Also his idea of going all in early D1 is a good thing is exactly the poo poo I think is stupid and fake as hell, so I think that's bad. I dunno if having a bad opinion makes him scum though since it doesn't look like he was doing it just defending it. He's still sitting on a jokevote.

I'd do that as well.

this is a stickup posted:

not really imo. look at it from this pov: if town thinks they've nailed someone, they'll probably push to the ends of the earth to close. scum would not, as (WIFOM) pushing too hard can draw attention to yourself. most throw stuff out there and see what sticks.

This one stuck out to me back when he made it, and Kash called it out earlier. It still bothers me, for the same reasons YPM's post bothered me before. It feels ultra constructed.

Yeah I agree he's also maybe mafia for the conversation about chores. I feel like chores is obviously never the lynch today so focusing on that and calling you out for engaging it is a weird thing to pop in and focus on.

Agreed. I don't even really get the criticism here. Obviously that post was constructed; all of them are.
I can kind of understand complaints about someone being insincere but it honestly sounds like people are on stick
Up for thinking before he speaks

He has 3 votes and one is likely preservation I don't think it's exactly a bandwagon

For me it was TNL saying "maybe Stick" followed almost immediately by Kash and Dicky B.

Asiina is my first choice for today. This post felt scummy to me:

Asiina posted:

Anyway I was mad yesterday, I'm less mad today.

I think YPM's case was bad, but he's acknowledged the things that seemed bad about it to me which is that he was tunneling hard on a case that he obviously didn't believe in and it was incredibly obvious. I feel better about him now.

I think TNL has been very town so far too and like him best for town.

Two town reads, and then

quote:

I dunno, I'm not feeling super strongly for anyone as scum. Would vote out a shitposter or a lurker, and obviously would vote Rarity but again don't think I could really convince anyone of that.

(a) claims to not have any real reads
(b) volunteers to vote out a shitposter or a lurker
(c) names someone suspicious but doesn't volunteer to case them

Part of my read on Asii comes from the fact that I basically made that same progression in my last game where I was scum and so that kind of thought process feels fresh in my head. Her content this game reads to me like scum not wanting to commit to making a fake case.

I was trying to leave it alone because I'm obviously biased in knowing my alignment, but MMT's case feels very real.

Her original case on me was that I was angry, completely ignoring my point

Murmur Twin posted:

I think I would also vote for Asiina. :ohdear:

Asii - do you have a better case right now than the one on YPM?

Murmur Twin posted:

Asiina - There exists a possibility that the aggressive tone / rolling scum are related (and again, apologies if they're not), and she made a post saying the push on YPM is bad without offering up someone who seems more suspicious.

The second part of this is nonsense. You can think a push is bad or on shaky logic without offering up an alternative, especially on D1 where my entire point was pretending that cases are completely solid early in the game is fake and will always read as fake. Saying that I can't make that point without offering up an alternative is nonsense.

She only votes for me because I goad her into it but She still maintains though that she'd vote for me or YPM equally, but now I'm her top choice because of how she played scum in another game (not how I played scum in another game) like that has anything to do with anything.

Again, I may be biased because it's against me, but this reasoning and its progression makes no sense at all. First I'm scum because I'm angry but doesn't explain how that makes me scum, and then I'm really scum because I'm playing how she played in another game where she was scum.

With that said, I just re-read stickup and actually feel pretty good about the case there as well.

this is a stickup posted:

disagree with this as mmt is a smart player and surely knows this

---

of those three listed, I don't really have feels about mmt or ypm. slightly suspicious of max due to his +1 post (not vote) on to what mmt said. preview edit: more reactionary posts

---

very much with this. I think it's weird that max is sticking up for mmt, especially after coming after ypm for sticking up for me. projecting a little maybe?

---

I'm not sure if I agree with him, but don't think it's all that wrong to be suspicious of mmt for that reason

you agree with mmt, but surely you can at least understand why people would be suspicious of mmt if they didn't agree?

---


ah, I thought you were just replying to me there, not still referring to ypm

I don't agree with ypm for the same reason; mmt is a player I hold in very high regard. not sure that makes him scum though.

He's posting like someone who is sure about my alignment, and it kind of seems like he's trying to buddy up to me.

Also if you compare his posting to Icebound where he was town, there's a noticeable difference in tone between that stickup and this stickup. In that game he comes off as an interrogator, asking people pointed questions to find scum. in this game he comes off more like a commentator, talking a lot but not really much about who he thinks is scum.
