Chain lunches are bad, even when you�re putting your own head on the line.

I�m also not sure why you�re so confident, even in a joking way, on such a thin read.

What are your reads?

Not feeling great about Dick all of a sudden. Would vote him.

Other than that, not much to go on. Everyone is being too chill in here. Somebody needs to lose their poo poo. DBD start losing your poo poo!!

Not like anything else is going on in this game right now. But sure, if that's what you feel like you have to do, be my guest.

I was/am primarily okay with this plan because:

A) I'm not a huge fan of D1 in general
B) There's very little specifically going on in D1 this game, since apparently
C) All the effort-posters got on the sub, and
D) if DB felt strongly enough about his read on Birdstrike to advocate for his own dunk if Birdstrike flipped scum, then I'm inclined to go along with it and see what happens.

However, since DB then immediately jumped off that vote to vote me, it seems I now need to take a look at DB more closely.

Yeah, the immediate reversal to voting someone who agreed with you is really scummy to me. Like a lovely gacha.

I'm not scum. I voted birb because I believe in mr F, and thought he (birb) was the scummiest read I had in a very content light game so far. But then IS came with the more scummy me-too vote. These are the reasons for my votes so far.

I want to throw a theory out:

Is it possible that maybe all the scum team / all but one scum went on the sub? Is it possible we are all town just chasing our tails around?

Think how advantages it would be for the entire team to go on the sub. Don't have to worry about being cuddled, don't have to push a case on a townie because town will just do their work for them AND if they did leave one scum member behind they have a NK.

The more I think about it the more I think that could be a distinct possibility.

As Max said, I think you have played enough mafia to not really buy into the mr f thing

I can't argue with the IS part though, he's played enough that I have a hard time believing he thinks that was a good case to go along with

Frankly, I'd rather jusr kill him now and save the possible replacement because if Ecco is planning to remove a third of the people every day then I'm probably going to replace out.

I was actually starting to get engaged in the game despite my intentions until the sub thing. I figured it would be some random thing that might reward or kill a player, not something that just flat out removes players for the rest of the day.

I am sad that I didn't get into the cool kids sub or even know that it existed but just disengaging for the day seems dumb. There are still people around and I don't really think of you as someone who has trouble finding ways to create content.

I know I haven't done my part yet but this attitude makes no sense to me

thankyou but is till think you are suss:

a) no one is
b) yes and
c)so? i don't think it likely all the scum got on the one boat.

d) is the only think that relates to a plan to lunch birdy then go for db, and still reads more like scum tactic than town. for example a more town thing would be to perhaps say lets lunch sober, then if he flips scum i'd be up for lunching bk, hypothetically.

interesting AS please tell us more hypothetical scenarios to look better from a scum perspective :xd:

I'd prob still vote the 3 people I quoted earlier just for sketchy posting, but tbh not leaning in any particular direction and definitely not going to fall on any swords cause of a huge gut read. There is none currently.

Also why don't you like birb again? I'm a bit confused about the votes on him.
