I dunno chores I am pretty careless sometimes but when the mod tells me not to do a thing sometimes I consider not doing that thing.

As for Krell and imgay like 99% of the time imgay fakes a self day vig so if we're lynching one of the two it would probably be krell.

On even days I win when I am lynched.

On odd days I lose when I am lynched and town loses an entire day phase.

Probably you should lynch me tomorrow

There's no benefit to lunching you for town, just a downside if you get lunched on odd days right?

Weird set of claims, why should we believe you, and even if you're telling the truth, why should we waste a lynch?

This was my first thought as well. Doing nothing to Mr F is the best choice.

This was my thinking. Ideally we catch scum before he becomes relevant. He seems like an anti-town role (his lynch can only hurt, not help town).

He's basically failed his wincon by giving up his role D1, unless he's lying.

As much as it rubs me the wrong way, I have to agree with Podima. I can't see Mr. F's claim as a scum gambit. It was an unnecessary distraction, sure, but a vote for Mr. F post-jokephase is decidedly scummy. Barring some evidence proving he's lying, the risk of losing an entire day phase is really bad.

And Infinitum based on their vote. The levels of suspicion are just so low right now that they might as well be noise.

This is a fairly content-lite thread, largely due to Shine as others have mentioned. Also, people are hinting at having fairly neat abilities so they might be playing more cautiously in hopes of getting a chance to use them.

This may turn into a game of "night-action mafia" but we still have to do our best to judge everyone's play and pick the best lynch, given that the deadline is tonight.

Unless anyone does something massively stupid, there probably won't be much more info today. I'll wait until this afternoon, re-read all posts, and then vote. I'm guessing a non-vote just doesn't contribute and whoever has the majority dies. What happens if there's a tie?

There are mods who use a plurality of votes to determine the lynch, but unless I'm mistaken we'll no-lynch unless we have enough votes for a majority in this game.

Town or scum, it's low participation across the board. It may not help as in "scum hunting", but it will eliminate any later doubts about imgay's alignment if we wind up in lylo with imgay alive.

unless you can come up with something better (I'm all ears, seriously), I'll probably vote imgay before going to bed. otherwise reference gotta go fast, where imgay's defining post was "killll meee"

I think I just read two months of imgay's posting history across 3 or 4 games.

Podima posted:

The people hiding behind D1 meta reads on imgay instead of engaging with the game are coming off as more scummy than anything to me right now, tbh. I agree that imgay is a frustratingly zero-content player, but this is an easy way for scum to LOOK like they're making game calls.

Anaconda Rifle, why do you think Mr. F! is most scummy out of the thread?

this is a stickup, who else would you vote besides imgay?

You're both being weirdly careful with your votes.

I did more reading of imgay in other threads, and he declares night action results and he votes. Yeah, he's not very verbose, but lynching someone because "He's generally not very engaged when he plays" doesn't seem like a very good reason.

If he's town, isn't there a chance he'll soak a night kill? I shouldn't ride people too hard for making meta cases because I fall into that trap myself, but I generally do it based on how people are playing, not the kind of player someone is.

I agree on some points, in that imgay is practically impossible to read because of his low-content posts, but is he our best D1 lynch?

This is a bad pair, especially since he was giving Infinitum a pass for voting for Mr. F out the gate. Anaconda is hardcore playing both sides of the argument to see which gains traction right now.

It's good to have you back Quid :)

I think stickup is Australian or something (was scum with him in pmush's game) so checking out is legit, but I'm not buying the imgay push/reasoning at all.

It's rough having suspicion of Australians with an evening deadline though, a lot of action might go down while they are legit asleep. I'll have to re-read these guys (not a lot of work) but keep that in mind and don't turbo.

Tobbs Gnawed

Read stickup, has no read on any player but throws a vote on imgay not really caring about his alignment, but rather due to a meta read based on his play across games.

Like I said, he is Australian so we shouldn't turbo if others think it's a good case, but this is where my vote is going.

Notice how this post is a softcallout on Stickup but never addresses him by name and at the same time doesn't present an opinion at all on one side or the other of this issue. It seems like it is, but it isn't.

Even more strangely, it's also addressed to Podima, not stickup, but seems to be throwing shade at the poster of the quote, when Podima is actually calling out the imgay vote as being bad. It's a weird freaking post.

Then he is making a huge deal out of not turboing people as if that's something that's going to happen with him being the what, third vote on Stickup?

The entire thing is incredibly weird and definitely not town Tobbs.

Like you, I agree that Podima is at the very least playing a smart game. I find myself agreeing with him on some of the points he's making.

I decided to give stickup a chance to re-think his lovely, scummy case. And yeah, I was quoting Podima while referencing stickup's statements.

What did stickup do? Ignored the fact that imgay could be an active, voting participant and threw down his lovely vote regardless.

Podima gave stickup poo poo for "disappearing" and I felt that stickup being Australian was relevant despite me thinking he's scum. He should still get a chance to defend himself.

I find it odd that you couldn't tease that out Quid. This looks like your town game to me and you're usually pretty perceptive.

Dude, I know you really, really like to believe that you're right once you have an idea. I get it.

But I don't want to lynch town. There are people like infinitum who recklessly cast lovely votes and you can say yeah, that was a scummy vote.

Stickup wasn't there yet. But, after people telling him why his idea was bad, he still wants imgay dead for all the wrong reasons. He's scum, Quid.

Quidthulhu posted:

Moat skipped voting stickup and went straight to voting me. Yeah, I made a leap in logic in assuming the lack of vote translated to a lack of suspicion, (not to mention the fact that Moat was pushing imgay for lynch) but now we have:

Moatillata posted:

-Putting words in my mouth (I have never said stick-up isn't scum, I am leaning neutral on him rn)

What, exactly, is Moat's case? He says he's "seeing what Quid's seeing" and then contradicts himself by saying he's neutral on stickup.

What I'm seeing is Moat pushing a bus on imgay, stickup supporting Moat, and when stickup starts to feel some pressure and Quid builds a case on me, Moat jumps on it without really understanding what's happening.
