OK did a big reread and gently caress me I hate doing this on a phone where I can't really type a post and read at the same time.

Leaning town
---Chili: Inclined to think town. Going out on the limb and making risky accusations. I don't actually like his cases though, but I don't think bad cases on d1 are scummy.
---Toalpaz: similar to chili, and feels similar to his town behavior in my last game with him.
---yami: less of a read here but I could buy their scum hunting. Interaction with quid is a bit wierd but the rest of their posts have been solid.
---JenX: I'm inclined to believe the d1 Miller claim, and her posts have felt genuine.

Null
---AA: I'm probably being too cautious on this, but AA sounds like his usual Bad At Town insane self given my experience with him. I probs could be talked around to him but he's definately not a top vote.
---Steak: I don't know what to think of steak really but the push on him feels utterly artificial. He's clearly an easy target and I would be willing to bet at there's at least one scum vote on him.
---merk: merk has an irritating playstyle but has a history of having good reads. I really don't see the case on him at all at this point.
---zzyzx: I get where the AA push is coming from but he's tunneling wierdly hard this early in day 1 and also claimed scum lol
---lupus: hasn't really said a ton when not directly questioned but the posts they have made seem genuine enough.

Leaning Scum
---bminus: shitposting hard well into serious time irritates me, and given their behavior so far I'd just as soon be rid of him than accept a flimsy case. Not really sure of their meta but this seems over the top even for a shitposter; could be scum exaggerating their usual town style.
---PaulR: multiple wierd cases including the "speculating about multiple factions is a scum tell" thing that reads like scum flinging poo poo at a wall to see what sticks.
---Quid: 'didn't read my pm' and content lurking hard imo. Their posts are largely questions that they don't follow up on.
---Tommunist: briefly got very serious thab reverted to shitposting when attention turned to them. Weak read but suspicious.

The other players I haven't really managed to develop opinions on yet. I'm perfectly happy to sit on my bminus vote for now, given that we still have a while to develop cases and I don't really like the other wagons forming atm.

Yami posted "I agree" to the absolute nonsense Lupus case made by the person they were in the middle of accusing

And I posted a "no u" when Chili posted an explanationless 'this is scummy'

To quote merk, "ok"

fool_of_sound posted:

Day 1 slap fights are almost always town v town. Scum doesn't have much reason to steer day 1 discussion, given that it's almost entirely conjecture anyway and very likely to result it a town lynch even without their input. Honestly anyone serious engaging on day 1 probably has a sub par chance of being scum. My toalpaz vote was a joke phase thing based on him always sounding like scum to me, but I'll change it once I have time to actually read the serious posts in detail.

This is a scummy post because it has the air of contributing wisdom to the conversation, but doesn't add significant insight to anything, and the reliance on generalities is suspicious. Of the three sentences here, the first two speak broadly of how mafia games go, and the last is just a promise of future action.

You're right and got me thinking that lynching him is the right move.

##vote b-minus1

1) Shitposting is anti-town
2) I've expressed my opinion on his scumclaim
2.5) I still think his 'other scumteam' comments are a tell that he knows more than us, plus:
3)

4) Anything said against him can be superfically rebuffed with "i was joking around :jerkbag:" so he's eseentially making himself unreadable, and Jen's post captures my feelings on that

I think binus is an easy target right now and this is more effort than I would expect justifying a binus vote. Who has an incentive for performative townieness? Scum.

Man you are really salty about last game. Your death ultimately led to us dunking two scum in a row. Both of those players were in my top scum reads. Sometimes you lose some town players along the way. It happens

Incidentally I just woke up and am trying to reread but honestly way too tired atm. Did read Paul again tho.

Paul hasn't exactly convinced me to drop the vote. I still don't like weird as hell case on a single post while ignoring the rest of the post history. Especially not after immediately trying to discredit my valid point about, you know the rest of my posts with "Lol OMGUS."

It's not like he even tried to fully parse that ONE post:

Yami Fenrir posted:

:)

Kind of agree on Lupus, as their posts so far are only commentary... but given that there's only two of them, I mostly just want more.

Actual thoughts on quid, toal?

It's quite obviously saying "The two posts Lupus are making are not enough to get a proper read on, I want more", imo. Instead he just jumped on the first part cuz it looked convenient to him.

Anyway I just realized the deadline is at 2 am for me so uhhhh, don't expect me to be present at the time.
