Binus, does it need to be exactly 1 vote? Or could it active whenever you get any number of votes?

Pssh. Powerhouse is doubtful. Plus you just announced you were going to be basically absent for the next few days. Buddying up with you wouldn't be worth the effort.

Yes. Spork and Maer are my scumbuds.

I haven't even caught up yet, but this blatent of a play is worth a vote. Also last game I saw someone openly claim scum on D1 they ended up being scum.

Sorry meant to add the vote, was getting caught up with the thread and went too quick.

I agree with others that wolo's posting seems off, and I'm not willing to let a scum-claim go unpunished.

As for me being gone most of the weekend? It's the weekend and I had my step-kids visiting and a party last night. Not going to apologize for being out. Especially since joke phase lasted most of D1 and only ended a few hours ago.

Do you have any thoughts on the game Wolo? You've been leaning heavily on joke-phase stuff, what with the Greek, binary, and general chatter at the start of the day.

I know you've said Maer and I are scummy and referenced a single post for Maer. Do you have anything else for her?

And what's your case on me?

Yeah, Wologar hasn't changed my mind. Hasn't offered an opinion of their own, just jumping on a bandwagon about my and Maer's posts being 'weird'.

Also they are jumping around like a jester (I'm assuming there isn't an actual jester in the game) and they openly made a scum claim.

I'm good with my vote where it is.

Work is kicking my butt today and keeping me from any effort posting, but it will be done hours before deadline so I'll be back around then more.

I will say I've been struggling with OMGUS basically since D2 started. The people pushing me (IA and binus mostly, RWC some) all look real scummy to me.

The case on me since D1 just seems real weak and I feel like people should be focusing on other players. So sticking with me feels like scum trying to push a vulnerable town out more than town scum-hunting.

Okay work is done so I can focus on mafia now.

Quick D1 recap thoughts;

Wologar seemed to be trying to pull votes to them, which ended up being successful. Assuming they were allowed to claim themselves as the first person voted off and did so it would makes sense for their role.

Voodoo didn't say much D1 except defending his keeping on binus. Considering binus asked for that vote I'm reading Voodoo's content as neutral. But we can't get any clues about the scum team motivations from this NK I don't think. Only funky option is that Voodoo dying is somehow related to the binus vote, but there's not really any evidence of that.

D2 seems to mostly be people saying I'm scum without giving much evidence, just vibes. Admittedly I haven't been active so I haven't given people much to work with other than vibes.

Then there are votes on Maer and she starts defending herself. Gives vote on binus with just a case of vibes and 'sly' and 'crafting a narative'. Not terrible, binus is hard to read, but nothing concrete.

Finally there was a swing onto IA which I am feeling pretty okay about. IA was pushing me earlier, so part of me would be fine to see them gone just for that, but I'm working to see past that. The case seems to boil down to this post:

Idle Amalgam posted:

Although seeing so many other people support a maer or spork vote does rub me the wrong way as my thoughts on the game usually are a bit more contrary.

Going to go ahead and ##vote bee

I agree it's very strange to give a list of 3 scum, two of whom are vote leaders and then pivot to the 3rd person instead. Not sure if it's scum trying to distance themselves assuming that one of the top two townies will go down anyway or what, but I don't like it.

I'm leaning IA right now. Not seeing the Maer stuff, but she has been mostly on the defense this game so far. I'm going to reread a few folks before putting a vote down.

Reading through I'm more confident in an IA vote. And I'm thinking Maer may be onto something with binus.

IA: Has been pushing both Maer and I for the game, with some sideeye at binus. Has been tossing out suspicions but then backtracking them. merk was on IA's scum lists at one point and then dropped off without any mention. IA also had this post in response to their b- vote

Idle Amalgam posted:

But if you need context...

Bee started the game off in a bizarre way.

Didn't actually have anything good to offer up the next day.

Their only vote this game is/was against Cpig who won't vote them today.

So I don't feel good about the bee man. Don't feel good about you stepping up to bat for him either.

:goofy:

But at that point binus had a vote on me for almost a whole day. Seems odd that IA would leave that off of the summary, especially since IA also was focusing on me.


binus: binus started the day asking for a vote, which ultimately didn't end up giving any useful information. Could be bad luck (scum killed VooDoo so binus' investigation was moot) or could be all a ploy (VooDoo was killed so binus COULD claim to have known their role). The whole thing where they said 1 scum in the final 3 wologar votes, and 1 scum in the non-wologar votes feels like content padding. It's too broad to be helpful, but it appears to be scum hunting. Meanwhile binus keeps pushing me, which whatever.

I also really don't like this binus post:

b-minus1 posted:

I’ve got a few people on my town list but right now only one of them is voting scum. That needs to change

Assuming binus is referring to me as the scum being voted for; there are 3 votes on me at that time. Binus, RWC, and beet. So low-key binus is implying one of those two is also scum voting for scum, but the whole post is so vague as to be meaningless. Plus, each of RWC and beet can assume binus is talking about them as the 'town list', but binus hasn't actually said who is/isn't on said town list.

Some other quick reads:

hambeet and RWC give me town vibes. Putting forth theories and challenging others'.

Sand feels off, but I can't say why.

Maer feels okay, but I've learned I'm garbage at reading Maer, so I'm keeping my eye on her.

Grandi also feels towny, but has largely been content neutral so not much to look through right now.

Everyone else is mostly neutral reads at the moment.

binus has been after me and Cpig all over this game. Mentioning both of us more than anyone else.

For me binus has jumped on any case anyone else has made, agreeing with them and saying I should be voted out.
For Cpig, binus seems to be the only one mentioning them as scum at all.

I'm not 100%, but I'm thinking binus is the other bounty hunter (might also explain the vote on Grandi when he suggested the same) with Cpig and myself as his targets.

Sure. You're still top of my list.

After that it's IA.

My third choice isn't really solidified. A nebulous feeling towards Grandi, Hal, or Cloaca.

Merk and I may as well be confirmed masons at this point

I am reading those recent spork posts and wishing there was more insight in them, the b-minus stuff is just recycling old stuff at this point

How is it recycling old stuff? My two posts about binus were about his recent (at the time) action of getting defensive about Grandis post, and then noting he might be the other bounty hunter. And that also was in response to the new info from Maer's claim/flip.

If you don't like the case its okay, but it's not just recycling old points.

I'm still happy with my binus vote. Have some slight suspicions of Hal, Sand, and IA.

Cloaca and taste have been content neutral, other than taste admitting they aren't having fun.
