I'm also suspicious of both Josef and Maer for being here.

I'm surprised I'm here too, I thought I wouldn't make the cut

I'm still vanilla / have no other night actions other than dreaming so I've just "entered the dream" both nights...not sure what would have happened if I did nothing, maybe stay in dream level 1?

Also I expect to be the yeet today but Cube is absolutely scum ##vote Cube

Maer how come you have no imagination (in the game, not real life).

Is your flavor like Dream Corp Accountant or something?

Software Engineer

my role PM doesn't say anything about imagination other than if I have imagination dream powers will work better in a dream than in reality, so far I'm powerless though

So I think either:
- Kills happen earlier than going deeper.
- Scum can kill someone going deeper if they also are going deeper.
- (Something else I'm missing)

This doesn't seem super helpful I guess.

on what are you basing your information?

it's really hard not to feel like we're in an eternal D1 in this game

I hope town have some means of communicating outside the thread because if we follow the rules as instructed, we don't know if anyone was voted out on the other layers or if they were scum. It is hard to make reads on not the most current info.

I'm here to help!

Tokes PMed me about playing but since I was on vacation from Wednesday to Sunday (GenCon, I had a blast), I couldn't play, but she said there was a role that wouldn't activate until later in the game, and I was like "yes, that please".

I bookmarked the main game so I could catch up when I got home but didn't actually read it, so imagine my surprise to learn there's multiple games going. Very Inception! I'm allowed to read the main game and the first dream up to a certain point, which I'll do over the course of today.

If you're allowed to read the main game are you allowed to pass on whatever happened in thread after D1 hammer (around page 35)?

I was hoping you weren�t allowed to read the other threads. Seems maugrim was able to as well which seems odd if you are a dream only entity.

This phrase irks me, since the player (the addition) being just as uninformed as us is a boon to scum

Has Maerlyn and Josef given a good reason why they are here? What's with Maerlyn's whole "yeah just kill me and I'll drop down" thing?

I have nothing better to do than keep dreaming (I have no other actions). Y tu?

I'm curious about what happens when we die. I notice Meen/zzyzx/Tom aren't spoiled so maybe there's some non death limbo we don't know about. Also the longer I last in these games the more frustrated and lurky I get.

No one like my mae case then?

No.

(I will actually read it later when I look through ISOs and try to figure out who I would/wouldn't vote for.)

I did catch the part about mostly town reading Meen and then voting him - I gave Sand's comments some thought and could see what he was saying, but also it was right before deadline and we were already close to not eliminating.

I'm torn about you because it does seem like you're scum hunting and I tend to get prickly when I'm scrutinized, but it also feels like you are tunneling me so you don't have to really make any other calls...it's a safe spot to linger because I always look scummy. These are off the top of my head comments, I haven't reread you yet so I could be wrong about who else you've expressed suspicion on.

Since people keep bringing up the "voluntary execution" thing, it's NAI other than I wouldn't pull something like that as scum. Twisting yourselves into pretzels due to WIFOM isn't helping find scum... At least OA has bothered to make a real case.

If I am not voted out I'm going to keep dream diving until I become god-like.

I feel like one of us is misunderstanding what NAI means.

I'm trying not to say "of course I wouldn't do this as scum" (because I can't say I wouldn't in the future)

it was a meaningless comment that I didn't expect to really get this much of a reaction

Will not vote Zoya, CapnAndy, Spork, Hal seems okay? I don't know what tipped me to thinking he looked scummy D1.

Would vote TM, Cube, tbd for the others

Yeah that a bad post with bad strategy and a double hedgey read, but she’s got a lot of good posts around it

Certainly “we got it wrong twice maybe we give up trying” isn’t pro-town

Forgot I wouldn't vote RWC, agree with Hal here... She seems a bit less focused today but her reads D1 and D2 came from a townie mindset. I don't blame her for today being like "gently caress it this poo poo's too weird let's no ex", reads more as frustration less scummy.

I'm feeling more inclined to vote TM after reading back

Day 1 he defends Meen by saying he really doesn't think he's scum, but at deadline says "oh fine" and hops on the wagon

He's spent a lot of time today going after Cap which is popular for scum (chasing down 3P instead of looking for scum.

I'm still reading back but if not today he's a major candidate for a vote tomorrow.

Quick summary of cases on schwinn and cube or is it basically schwinn all over the place and cube being cube?

I haven't really reread shwinn but best as I can tell he made a bad post on coordinating night actions but I don't think everyone was being sincere in thinking it was bad (he must be scum for suggesting it)

##vote cube

Following OA as a town read. I assume Andy is not the worst person to follow either. And I have wanted to vote cube on prior days but have not wanted to vote schwin.

24 hour days suck

I'm not so sure OA is town - he also spent time D1 defending Meen ("haven't seen anything scummy from him") and distances himself from the vote by commenting how Sand may bully him into voting Meen. He does ultimately vote Meen and leave but I know it was late there, can't really blame for that specifically.

After his case/vote on me today going back and reading that felt very "pot meet kettle" and doesn't sit right with me.
