There is no town reason to turbo.

There is also no town reason to dayvig at the start of day 1, especially in a soldiers game where immediately losing a player places us at a disadvantage relative to the red team.

I feel like there's been a miscommunication. Spiros said he wouldn't be able to post as much because of lack of access to a computer and dislike of mobile posting. Now I think this is a bull poo poo excuse personally, but I've seen it used in multiple games by multiple people.

Not Voting (5): Dugong, Iron Chef Ramen, Li Dawny, Little Mac, Moatillata

Kind of think we should look closely at the people who haven't put down a vote yet (aside from Li Dawny obviously). For someone who supposedly has opinons about who's scummy, I'm not sure why Iron Chef hasn't put down a vote yet.

I would gladly turbo Diqnol because that would be funny. I think we should only kill fun and established players.

Which means I'll die somewhere near the end of the game.

Okay, I've given my opinions of town people as requested as Li Dawny (Jimson is acting way too dumb to be scum. Scum players need to be careful about looking town, Jimson clearly gives no fucks. Anomalous Amalgam is a replacement for Infinitum, and AR gave the okay to kill Infinitum.) Now for a scumread.

This guy right here.

Are you going to issue us an SOP lil D? What at the laws of this land

Starts by trying to attach himself to the king (or queen in this case) and ask her for guidance, giving himself an excuse to just follow the leader.

Moatillata posted:

Lil D I am very sorry, the deadline was a very bad time for me. Anything between 1645 and 1900 PST is p much impossible for me on a weekday.

I will try to prove my worth in the upcoming battle.

Excuses himself from deadline. (I know I missed it too, but I'm making this read ignoring my own actions)

Moatillata posted:

Okay, here we go

First post of substance is a gut call on ICR:


Then a double down vote on ICR:


Now what I am wondering is if Keane would be ballsy enough to immediately bus a scumbro. Especially since looking at the end of day one vote count keane had left his vote on ICR.

Another thought about ICR. The whole APPROACHES thing has got me thinking because both AS and tithin both pulled it on the other side. tithin died and flipped scum. AS didn't die so I cant comment on her alignment. It would make sense for scum to have their own mechanic to join brawls, so I ask you ICR why did you approach? Also anyone else feel free to comment on this train of thought.

Jumps on an extremely tenuous connection between ICR and Keane. Doesn't make a hard call out of it, just asks very waffly questions. Looks like he's trying to push a case without committing too heavily to it. Votes later when the case has more traction.

Finally, his case on me. I know I know, you're going to say I'm OMGUSing. But behold.

First this happens.

Li Dawny posted:

I'm going to say ##vote SSV . They've called people out repeatedly for not posting content while not posting it themselves (not 100% on gender and don't want to mislabel, sorry), have the lowest amount of posts of anyone left alive including AA who subbed in, and every person they've voted for who's died has flipped town.

Moatillata posted:

Goes after PBS (flipped town) for the easy push on her stupid vig


Goes after spiros (also flipped town)


Then immediately recants when Lil D comes to his defense


Goes after people for not voting, then misses vote himself

(:ironicat: I know)

Lurking is p common for SSV, but these other things combined make it a bit more suspicious. I think this is a good spot to put my vote rn

##vote SirSamVimes

Instead of coming up with a case of his own, he literally just echoes Li Dawny's case without adding any substance. Once again, just following the leader to avoid needing to put in effort.

Moat is scum imo.
