fair enough chaos

i think a somber or pmom lynch is the best way forward today, and would prefer to lynch somber.

i think the interactions across the last few pages point to somber as scum, and i'm also suss on taste. i lay out the trail of posts i find suss above.

who do you think is scum?

I don't have a particularly strong scum read at the moment. Gun to my head because you're going to vig me if I don't make a scum call? I'd take PMom, their vote for Somber seemed like a big overreaction

Would not vote atomic soda at this point. Reasoning well thought out and did not misrepresent posts to create a narrative.

I disagree with this assessment. By staying factual and non opinionated, scum can create content without having to fake towniness. I think this is null, anyone can summarize what has happened (even by page), it has no bearing on alignment until those facts are placed in a framework and opinions are made based on them.

This is not saying I think AS is scum, just that I don't think the :words: make her town.

i feel it is useful to post reasonings and point out possible factions as well say who i think is scum. i think i've put a good argument for why somber is likely scum if people can make it through 10 billion words. :)

it is true that the occasional deluge of words is null tell for me, i'm def town this game tho.

are your reasons for voting pmom still just the reaction to sombers vote?

AS, my one thing is that you usually start out quiet and slow and build up to something later. Is this just an evolution of your game or are you hiding something?

Like, if someone came into the thread and said "Chaoslord I am going to vig you if you dont tell me who is scum", then I'd say Pmom. But outside of that kind of pressure, I don't have strong feelings for a scum currently.

probably just getting a bit more confident max, plus i have time to post atm :)

i also think that the somber/taste interactions in particular were worth pointing out, no one set of posts were damning but altogether i think it makes a good case.

Yeah, I have no real problems with your posts, the problem I had with people holding it up as massive proof of you being a bastion of towniness.

But, yeah, PMom doesn't feel legit, the reaction seems forced and faked, he talks about Somber doubling down, but joke voting someone, it eliciting a reaction, then real voting is not a bad thing. I mean, Somber clearly transitions from joke vote to real vote. Then there is this sort of behavior

Like this type of post:

Pinterest Mom posted:

I'm voting scum, I'm plenty engaged

Pinterest Mom posted:

Well if I get dunked, whose fault is that

It is shirking responsibility and refusing to engage. This means there will be fewer interactions to judge PMom on, it is scum throwing up a wall. If this were later in the game, I could see a townie having a similar reaction, but this early, PMom shouldn't be as exasperated as this makes him look.

Words are fine for day 1, and generating content, even content that's not necessarily particularly insightful, generally sets a stage and provides thoughts that can later be used if a player is scum. It's a good habit to encourage, and I'm disinclined to vote somebody actively participating day one because of it.

Here is a recap because I feel like you must have missed something.

AS asked who I thought was scum.
I told AS I did not have a particularly strong scum read, but gun to my head I would pick PMom. I brought up a vig here as an example because threatening that is the literal in game equivalent to gun to head.
AS was confused for some reason.
I explained what I meant.

How is "threatening a vig" not exactly a gun to head situation?

I am not worried about a vig. Context is important.

The part I'm missing is I don't see AS saying "Gun to your head." You used the phrase yourself and then also brought up the vig thing totally unprompted. It's a weird state of mind to be thinking like that.

Like, "gun to your head" or "Gun to my head", in this game, usually just means "If I have to make a decision right this moment."

Liking Chaosloard as town. Like, Max is being flustered and awkward and that's the kind of thing I'd think scum would pounce on for d1.

AS' words are heavier on summary than analysis but it isn't striking me (cough cough in this case cough) trying to masquerade as analysis. Null to town-ish.

I am not seeing the case on Somber. Somber flipflopped when Pmom stopped making serious effort. It's a little tunneled but it's not in and of itself scummy.

...yes? That was the whole point?

I don't have a strong scum read BUT if I had to pick one right now it is PMom.

That was the message I was trying to convey and I used a phrase that is very common to convey it. The vig thing was probably over explaining, sure, (to save you time I'll just put your "ha, scum slip!" here), but the message was plain and clear.

Yeah, I was initially down on Somber because nth dimensional chess, but Pmom's total collapse has really gotten me switched around on the whole thing, and I'm definitely not seeing anyone else I really have a scum read on.

This is concern trolling, not genuine. I've made my case on Somber, and it's good! It's not like he's posting a whole lot, which is, you know, smart of him if he's scum under suspicion.

I'm not going to fake content for you :angel:
