Okay, talking about reverse death millers is suspect as gently caress because no one same puts them in their game and their only purpose is to suggest in order to gently caress with town deliberations.

Bifauxnen got on the Gough bandwagon in it's middle stages and now that it's assured of passing has jumped off so she can claim that she didn't want to hammer preventing discussion.

She also brought up the idea of reverse death millers which if it takes hold pretty much paralyses any ability of the town to interpret data.

I want to know why Lid's been so keen on Gough all game. His ability to identify scum has historically been shithouse - perhaps he has outside info? If Gough flips scum, we can pay attention. If he's town, we murder Lid tomorrow.

He managed to intimate to bid earlier that his hard on for Gough was not based on an investigation role.

Are you aware of the fact that Milky extracted the "no millers" bit from the usual rules? It's been coyly joked about mostly, but I'm pretty sure some people mentioned it explicitly too.

Fair enough that it's not a good idea to just claim millers for everything, or everything goes crazy. But just keep in mind that it shouldn't be forgotten completely, in case someone's trying to use a flip to fully clear themselves or something. It just came to mind when you were pulling the "oh no, poor me, I am town and will just go vote to kill myself routine", cause in a game where we could have some millers or death millers or reverse death millers etc etc that would be one really good loving way to use it.

ironically, if I were scum that would only be more evidence to vote Gough, cause I would have been backing up scumbud Xylo in drawing the vote away from him and towards Mills instead.

Gough, if you are town I'm not sure why Xylo was bothering with trying to get the vote away from you by discrediting Mills. Maybe since everyone was going for townies anyway, it didn't matter what the scum did at all really, so he was trying to get points for being all active and thoughtful? :shrug: Or maybe they saw the opportunity to go for a more high-profile target.

Bifauxnen

Xylo was originally voting for Lid, before Mills came along explaining why that could be quite dumb. I think Lid was being targeted as an easy townie lynch that wouldn't hurt anyone for suggesting it given his annoying restrictions. But then Mills came along to change that. Xylo ended up backing off, but in a way that made him still look engaged without just following along with whatever Mills said.

Lid might be wrong on some of his calls, but I think he is making them from an honest position of town trying to figure things out. Some other people who are just farting around being useless like Bees or Plott (or now you, perhaps) might be better candidates, but not Lid. Or rather, if Lid is scum, going after Gough isn't what proves it. Gough and me are the only cases so far going today that seem to have been built on any effort analysis. Pushing to lynch Lid if Gough flips town sounds really loving suss.

(.....especially if he's a reverse death miller :v:)

I'd feel comfortable voting for Sky Coq based on the flavour speculation I mentioned this morning

This being said I also went back and re-read Gough by himself without reading Xylo and outside of attacking lid there's really not a huge amount of content there, a few minor things that are vaguely scummy but it's hard to fault him that when your primary antagonist is someone who literally can't communicate outside of ##votes.
