I’m so keen to know if rarity is scum or SK because if she isn’t, I’m having probably my worst game on record, if she is? Middlin to fair.

Currently I think Sandy, Toal are town based on their ctions towards the SNG case.

I think Rarity is scum, based on how they cased SNG.

Would vote Hal, or tpink as lurkers, though the extra kill might be related to lurking as the two dead players are the two players with the lowest postcount.

Going to reread EP+ and Birb. EP because of the unconfirmed masonry thing, birb because other people are talking about them. will get back to you with opinions on those two.

so EP+ when the kerfuffle started with SNG day 1, pushed for me for casing SNG. Then started pushing the people voting for DGK as scum, before coming to SNG then when the claim comes waffling on the vote and then swapping to DGK.

Day 2: Comes out of the gate beleiving SNG's claim.

Epsilon Plus posted:

alternatively, SNG is scum and is not a jailer goaded on by their scum buddies to stir up poo poo, but just enough people are defending him to let him coast by for a few days. this soaks up the thread's attention and leads to lovely last-minute swerves to town. this seems unlikely because it's a strat that needs as many living scum as possible to work, and they're already down one, but it's an idea


Then they think both Gaspy and SNG are town as we near deadline, but throw a vote on Gaspy instead of SNG, only swapping over at the last second to hammer SNG.


Verdict: I think EP+ is likely to be scum, would vote.

Giving Bif a proper look over focusing on her interactions with binus and SNG.

Bifauxnen posted:

Lol welcome back to Mafia I guess

b-minus1 posted:

drat this is a scummy post

Bifauxnen posted:

Holding back from the third vote are we, coward

##vote binus

This looks like distancing from binus

Bifauxnen posted:

I do think I could be on to something with binus bothering to call me scummy but not wanting to drop a vote, possibly because it woulda been the third vote.

That vote on binus looks pretty jokey to me but when pressed on it she upgrades it to a full read with what I think is lame justification. I know players like me and Bif love to throw votes around on D1 but not everyone plays like that and assuming binus should is weak. And seriously, the third vote rule isn't real.

Bifauxnen posted:

The third vote or so is a pretty good place for scum to start coming in, if they want a mislunch to take off. Cast the first vote on someone and you might take all the blame for sticking your neck out and making a bad case. Cast the second vote and you might look too me-too. But once someone else has already done the me-too, it's not quite as scary anymore. It's now an approved idea that's passed some scrutiny and has more than one oddball townie on board.

Further development of that theory. I don't believe Bif believes this.

Bifauxnen posted:

Anyway, E+ have you got any response to my thoughts on binus beyond "meh I just don't wanna babble about meta ideas"?

You tried to downplay my vote by saying it was just about "third vote scum", you really don't have any reaction at all to when I explained further?

She's really trying to play up the strength of her read here.

Bifauxnen posted:

It's not just about that. It's that binus bothered to point out an individual post of mine and call it really scummy, instead of settling for his usual "lol", "scum are shook", "lots of scum bussing on this page" vague floating undirected statements which are his trademark. Yet despite having such a strong scum vibe from that specific post of mine, he didn't vote me. Why was he to chicken to vote me? That's a classic scummy behavior regardless of which vote number it is. That was the start of my criticism. "Maybe cause he was avoiding the third vote" is an afterthought.

I'm also pretty suspicious of both you and E+ trying so hard to downplay such a small initial jab at binus.

I glossed over it at the time cause they just went on and on and on but the whole Bif/beet thing starts because of her weak case on binus. If Bif is scum then this would be a real easy way for her to pivot away from a bus. I'll see if she comes back to binus again during D1 but if she doesn't that's gonna look real bad to me.

(I'm not gonna pull out every single thing from this slapfight but beet, I'm sorry for not agreeing with you at the time)

Bifauxnen posted:

The hilarious thing is it's not even really a case. It was a jab. He didn't vote me and it looked scummy, so I poked him to see what happened. But you and E+ are the ones who reacted to it in a more suspicious way.

I went back to check how binus reacted to it. He stopped engaging with Bif, doesn't push his scum read any further and pivots to DGK instead. That initial exchange looks more and more like distancing the more I read.

Bifauxnen posted:

SNG's posts do sound scummy though...but he hasn't said "performative" twenty more times overnight so that's way way below his average when I last saw his scum game.

Huge amounts of hedging here

Bifauxnen posted:

I'm fine with moving to SNG if he stays in the lead, but I'm a bit more interested in this one:

##vote DGK

Isn't gonna vote for SNG but she totally would if she had to, you guys.

Oh yeah and her reason for choosing DGK instead is that she wants to check her grasp on Gaspy's meta :lol:

Bifauxnen posted:

Ok this is what I was really hoping woulda happened earlier back when I first voted Toal

##vote Toalpaz

She starts getting some heat and votes for the above so she tries to take it back and move the lynch away from SNG and onto Toal

Bifauxnen posted:

Looking back over Toal now, their own push for DGK doesn't look like a bus so

##vote SNG

She does slap a vote down on SNG before deadline at least

Bifauxnen posted:

If I'm not around tomorrow my top scum picks are Toal, Amni, Beet and binus

This is the first time Bif has mentioned binus since starting the beet slapfight. She also doesn't comment at all after he flips as scum. Moving on to D2...

Bifauxnen posted:

Anyway, SNG does seem like a good road to go down today

Bif makes her support clear early that she is on board with SNG taking the spotlight for the day.

Bifauxnen posted:

I'd have said fair enough to this on D1, I didn't take SNG serious at all till he ended up one of the main lunch candidates, but that's kind of bullshit today. And what does "it's not scummy until SNG flips scum" even mean, are you trying to act like I'm only suspicious of Toal cause I think they're scum with SNG? Did you just sleep through the end of D1?

This is her defence once Sandwolf calls her out on ignoring SNG. There's not actually anything here that claims she has been considering SNG.

Bifauxnen posted:

Despite other people voicing suspicion of Toal, here I am sitting here all by myself again with just one little vote. I was hoping to revisit Beet today too, see if he started getting all on my case again like he was hinting he would, so I could see if he still seemed scummy about it or not. But he's just got to relax all weekend without anyone really caring except Gaspy. All anyone wants to actually commit to and put more than a couple votes on is SNG. This is sucking the air out of the room worse than any big slapfight.

##vote SNG

This is where she drops her vote on SNG. This doesn't sound like someone who thinks SNG is 'a good road to go down'.
