No idea who scum is, I quit keeping up with this game when I had to start voting on rules and dealing with people leaving votefinder or coming back to life with nebulous roles.

TBH I suspect this is more frustrating for scum than town - they almost had the game in the bag and then people came back to life with confirmed town status and vigs and deathproof and a cop in every pot and free unicorns.

I'm pretty sure a large subset of this 'oh man nobody's playing why even try' stuff is scum trying to discourage town - we're actually in a way better position than we were n1 I reckon.

As far as the vote for today goes though, I’m not sure and that deadline is fast approaching too. I’ll go take another look at CL.

I went back and reread CL and while I can sort of see what xiw is getting at in terms of the piece regarding Asiina, in tone from CL’s posts I’m feeling more checked-out townie (which, welcome to the club) over scum for right now, particularly considering the follow-up post:

chaoslord posted:

SK, this game is full of apathetic town, me included, and I don’t think we have much of a chance with how :shrug: this game has gone. Like, as I called out, there were 11 non voting 6 hours out, 12 if you count mine since I’m on a no lunch vote. I don’t have any strong reads (scumalong is weak feelings for putting asiina at -1, backing off, then hopping on azure with no explanation), and I’m hoping the bowser button gives me a power or something. To be perfectly honest? Half of me hopes I bowser button into scum so I have a chance to win, ha. I think we are probably closer to LYLO than we think and with me not having a strong feeling I am scared to put my vote anywhere and have folks hop on. In the absence of a strong read I am content to let the game day pass and hope to be either given a power to actually be useful or to have a chance to win in a very undeserved manner, as is mario party tradition

However, this case was posted since I was here last and I think it has merit:

Toalpaz posted:

Day 1 Hum ends up voting Asiina to get the lunch, but that could be just bussing and day one isn't a lot to work with. Her main cases for that day are SK and B-.



The day 2 content from hum is almost non existent and this is the reason for voting ss3p. Which is null but lazy town and lazy scum go hand in hand imo.


Day 3 asks for the summary of the case on Asiina. This among other prompts gets Azure to write her big post... and these are hum's last posts until the end of d3.




Like... Humalong is obviously doing her thinking in scum chat. We have no reason for her switch to Azure, unless it's somehow self evident (which I don't believe is true). Nothing to use later, and no thought process. I think it was just a vote of opportunity to save a scum bud.

I’ve been in and out (more out than in, truth be told) but I’ve also tried to go back and revisit what I said I would when I could and have tried to explain my thought process on shifting opinions. In contrast, Hum has not done so based on these posts, so I think this case resonates with me.

As I was typing this up I see Hum is close to dunk and we still have time so I won’t vote yet, but this is where I’m looking at.

Huh. Catching up and Confirmed Town Solus cleared Toal, so ##unvote I guess

I feel like I cannot in good faith vote for Humalong for a lack of cases because I also definitely am guilty of that, but I'll definitely vote to stop a nolynch again

Don't read too much into what I've said about Toalpaz, I only tracked Toalpaz on N1. I tried to track someone N2, but in addition to being killed, I was also blocked.

I'm reasonably sure, for today's purposes, that Toalpaz isn't scum.

Oh okay, I was assuming you had been tracking Toal constantly for...some reason. Good to clarify though, thanks

i mean if someone is claiming lunchbomb at -1 I'm going to assume it's a scummy desperation claim. I'm not worth poo poo in this game so the least I can do is call the bluff.
