About four people- most suspicious of Humalong on that vote, then imgay, toal, and hal, in that order. I think I'm probably inordinately suspicious of imgay but I can't ignore that no-content posting. Getting less suspicious of toal as time goes on, but I won't hesitate to jump on a turbo for toal.

I ought make a case for humalong today, and to help me concrete in my mind why he's pinging me as hard as he is.

This kind of stuck out me (bolded part). Getting less suss but also totally ready and willing to turbo seems less than pro town imo

Lol I didn't want to be the one to point that out. Why would you turbo someone you're on the fence about.

I think it's the phrasing you used. Turbo is voting for someone you 100% think is scum. You don't want to turbo someone you aren't sure about.

I know its the weekend, but I'd like to hear from Humalong. How do you feel about E+ and the IP/Sal situation? Have any of your reads changed on GGN, Toal, IS? How do you feel about the failed DB lynch?

Bad weekend at the jail, just catching up on the thread.

E+: I think the weird "I did no night action" "wait how do you know my night action failed?" thing is a distraction. Plus now that we know the jail on him lasted through the night it doesn't matter if he submitted a night action or not because it failed regardless. I don't know that I buy the "I thought gyrados was water/dark" defense, but I'll let it slide for now.

IP/Sal: This seems pretty cut and dry, though Sal seems to have claimed he's a watcher and has some sort of protection ability? That's pretty strong if so, but I may have misread and he was just asking to be protected tonight. Which would make a lot more sense! I see two possibilities: IP is caught scum or Sal is doing an absolutely insane, Gaspy-level gambit. I see the former being MUCH more likely than the latter.

GGN: Still think she's town. I didn't like the attempted push on her day 1 for a relatively innocuous drunk post but I understand why scum would do it.

Toal: I want to say their posting seems a little better today? I need to reread, I'm sorry. I read through the thread but I didn't do any deep reads yet. Toal read like a nervous newbie day 1 which is a neutral read imo.

IS: IS hopped on an attempted last minute swap to a lurker lunch day 1 with Sal. That's suspicious to me, especially combined with their "gut read" bandwagon vote on GGN earlier that day and then ANOTHER bandwagon vote on DB. Not feeling great about IS at all. Also most of their day 2 posting has been role fishing. They've softly defended IP which is a neutral read but worth pointing out.

This is pretty very suspicious, but I don't know how to weigh priorities between E+ and IcePhoenix.



I don't really like these posts. It reads like someone trying to bus a scumbro early, then hedging and attempting to foster confusion. Not feeling super good about Toal right now.

Toalpaz posted:

To be fair, I gave a pretty solid and in my opinion truthful response to that 'slip' that occurred in the jokephase as my very first post after receiving roles.

Most people have a problem with me floundering around and defending someone who could be town, a big faux pas I realize now.

TBH once I start defending better players in other thread like Imgay or Hambeet they usually tell me off and remind me that town don't need friends, where GGN ignored me being questioned.

I have a town read on GGN right now so this is also a scummy post to me.

Not one, but two "totally gonna post some reads, guys" posts with no actual reads posted. Also some light role fishing and that's really all the content from GGN today. Still leaning town because of her day 1 play but day 2 has not been great from her (like I'm one to talk).

imgay's posts are something very special and I cherish them, but aside from his ironic read on Hal and his call out of Lumpen lists he's not posted a lot of content. I get that that is his style but, you know, at a certain point it becomes a distraction from scum hunting having to sift through his posts.

imgay posted:

me personally i think hal is just hollow, a shell of a man who doesn't want to invest effort, and will pretend to show effort with a miasma of articulation that will be undercooked.

This is my feeling on Hal this game as well, though. He spent all of day 1 lurking and then came in at the end, said "DB scum" started a push on him that most likely had at least 2-3 scum jump on, then he's gone back to lurking hard aside from letting us all know he would vote DB again. Oh and he slipped up and named IS instead of IP so that's funny.

Looking at this and going off of Solus I'd say Hal, Toal, IS would be my strongest picks for scum in that group. On the fence about imgay and GGN. Would be shocked if AA or Dancer were scum being opportunistic.

Ok I apologize for a hundred posts in a row but I'm rereading people that have pinged me and I just went through ASF's posts. Their entire post history is jokes, some role fishing, and random drive by votes. Only other game I've played with ASF they also lurked hard and were scum, but I know meta is not a popular case on SA. I really feel like they're scum, though going off of their posts. Enough that I'll ##vote ASF for right now.

Dancer posted:


On a separate note, the evolve vote is currently like this:
2 - AA - voted by Sal, Humalong

As an aside, this was completely incorrect because I had not even had a chance to post day 2 before this was posted so I'm not really sure why I was listed here. Probably a case of mistaken identity?

Yeah, I think that was Toalpaz' vote that I must've read as yours. I imagine it's because of similar colouring of the avatar :v:.

Also totally agree on ASF. Between the several players who I barely register as present in this game (him, Hal, imgay, with DB and E+ not too far behind), he's the one where I feel the strongest that "this person is trying to give the impression that they're saying things when they're really not".

This is a very towny callout. There was no sample role PM so scum can't really make this post. Only town would know that town-aligned is the ... town alignment.

Isn't this a weird post? Doesn't it look like Slam is trying to give weak towny reads on E+?

Slam also calls DB out for being sus of E+ on a earlier post.

I personally think it's a strange connection. One day I hope I'll earn town's trust again.

How are you parsing "This is a very towny thing to do" as a "weak" towny read? I know you're new but I am just not following any of your arguments and I think you're scum.

Pressure vote. IP is caught scum going off of Sal’s night action and the fact IP has presumably given up rather than even try to explain an alternative to him being the poisoner. Just don’t want to put him at -1 right now because I believe there’s still at least a little discussion to be had about different players.

I will note that you're talking about a lynch that was too slow. Like, of course, if enough people are online close to deadline, most of them will be willing to vote on short notice, even on a lovely lynch, to make sure that it actually happens.
