That is indeed weird. And thank you for coming forward with that information, I think I would have suspected AA of being busdriven otherwise. Thanks to you we can see this situation more clearly.

ok so im going to bed and will be back to catch up in about nine hours or so, but my re-read of today took me back to the above when dancer called anpu on the oddity of the bolded statement

anpu why would your first thought be that aa was bus driven before max had even claimed bus driver? that's an very specific comment to make.

# ? Jul 15, 2018 14:34

Anpu: Jun 26, 2018; I have opened your two eyes. I have opened your mouth with the instruments of Anpu...

Again, I�ve already explained that statement. All you�re doing is reinforcing the lengths you�ll go to not read my posts.

Anpu posted:

6) I didn�t suspect he�d been busdriven but it�s such an odd night kill choice that I�m sure I would have wasted time considering it had Max not spoken up.

I hope this helps.

I don�t see how my original post implies I was already thinking he was busdriven, only ever that it was an option.

Last post for tonight.

Yep I forgot about that response, fair call, but implying that I'm not reading any of your posts when I've been picking them part is quite the fabrication. For someone so interested in the truth I'd not think you'd be so prone to hyperbole.

And I'm sorry, the post does read like you would have assumed he was bus driven if you had no other information (max's claim), because that's how you have written it.

Even if I ignore that you're obviously trying to walk that back now, it doesn't explain why you would mention bus driving out of a multitude of other options. A hundred different things could have happened to AA, but you just happen to think it was worth mentioning bus driving as opposed to idk, just a straight up night kill?

Slamburger: Jun 27, 2008

I'm caught up on Day 2 now, sorry for my absence its been a busy weekend. Here are my reads:

Top choice: Moat
Gave us basically one post of reads here and then totally checked out.

The beet vote is really lazy. Beet straight up said he hadn't read the game yet and Moat votes him for getting bogged down in the bus driver discussion. Then when Beet does post some (reasonable) reads upon catching up, Moat doesn't follow up or comment on them at all. Its just a bunch of snipey no-content posts. Moat is not at all concerned about finding scum. Moat is scum.

##vote Moat

Other people I'm currently suspicious of:

Atomic Soda: A lot of her posts on D1 were very defensive and while she was poking people and asking questions, at this point I'm like to see some analysis and reads. Based on my limited meta understanding of the couple games I've played with her recently, I would expect more specific reads from her here if she were town.

IcePhoenix: Scum lurker. Calling this one now, so I can quote it later once he flips and I look super smart.

flerp: Same boat as moat (does it float?): gave us one post of reads on D1 and now isn't doing anything. His foray into the busdriver discussion reads much scummier to me than Beet. He's made a handful of posts on D2 and none have done anything to advance the game.

Finally a note on Anpu: I honestly just can't decide where I stand on this guy. I kind of flip back and forth on whether he's scum like I'm listening to the Serial podcast. If I have time tonight I'd like to re-read him again and try and make a stand on what I think about him but I may not have time to do that! I say that fully realizing that if I don't follow up on this and we lynch him and he flips scum, this post will look really bad. Such is mafia.

Anpu posted:

No, happy to go through this.

1) I honestly thought that was RP flavour, maybe something to do with your character being betrayed in the past. This is the trouble in RP heavy situations, it can be hard to gauge what is and isn�t relevant.

2) That post has a few things in it, but given I�m not sure about Slamburger I don�t know how to feel about it. I don�t like the way it offers up the answer it�s looking for; in making enquiries I think this does more harm than good. I tend to think of it as the behaviour of scum looking for cases to join, but I didn�t think Slamburger was scum so again, didn�t know what to think.

3) My issue with your answer was your first one was direct but very loose and noncommittal, the follow up was done entirely in an RP very loose, talking to yourself and (to my mind) avoiding directly answering the question. It made me think of scum trying to avoid a lie detector role or something similar.

4) I would answer it by listing what you�re good at during the day, what your judgement is like during the night, your weaknesses during the day, your weaknesses in night actions.

5) I have very much achieved in part of what I set out to do. More information is unwise but everything has happened as I thought it would.

6) I didn�t suspect he�d been busdriven but it�s such an odd night kill choice that I�m sure I would have wasted time considering it had Max not spoken up.

I hope this helps.

you asked for people to tell you their weaknesses in night actions? this is an odd request and not one i remember you making before. i'm having trouble figuring out exactly what you're trying to achieve with all this, despite your hinted power role

also amused that my two rp posts have caused you such consternation.

for your lie detector concern - i, atomic soda, am town.

did tnl give you the answers you wanted?

flerp correct

worried about the sober kill - either he was the actual scum target or we got a pretty powerful sk out there.

moat being very jocular rn i hope he is town. if anpu is concerned about answers for a possible lie detector, i'm surprised he didn't note moats lack of direct response to my "are you scum" question earlier.

what do you think about moat atm anpu?

hey man it was day 1, also i was pretty sure you were scum if you remember.

from my limited meta understanding also, you don't pull stunts like the one you pulled day 1 with the scorpion death matches, so even though i'm feeling a bit better about you you still on my suss list.

What terrible play? At this stage I�ve not only found a scum, I�ve also put in more effort than almost every other person in the thread.

your posts have been horrendously terrible, with poor justification on any of your reads, directly contradictory statements, and doubling down even when people point out flaws in your arguments

your major defense is that you have some kind of role, and frankly, im tired of you being coy about it. it is beyond obnoxious because it distracts from any ability to case you because you say "well everything im doing has a specific reason and you see im the big mastermind here and everything im doing is super deliberate" and quite frankly, i highly doubt you have any role near that power that you feel the need to super breadcrumb anything. and, even if you do, it seems like it makes your posts just so much worse.

idk what the gently caress youre saying with me being a better target. of what? a vote? sure, whatever, vote for me, like you want to vote for anybody that brings up any suspicision of you.

Apnu bad vote. I will die on this hill. This is the result of town slap fighting.

Now you're lock step following anpu same targets of suspicion so presumably including the same bad reasons of ~scum posted together~.

Is there a particular reason why you dont have any original thoughts on who is scum today and are hiding behind someone else's case?

Is there a reason why you're suss on me outside of anpu said so / beet started casing me / mmt meta?

Are you going to try post more than a sentence at a time one day?

Anpu is right on one thing, at least he puts in effort even if it is just crazy old man tunneling.
