Spoiler: show

Town things:

"Shit this ends soon! Forgot it was 24 hrs"
-Don't think him not knowing the day is ending is made up. And i think he's more likely to know EoD is approaching is he's in scumchat talking about what their mislynch options are. Thoughts?

-His LC vote (if Nutella is town)

"I don’t have a solid reason. You’re last on my list of 3 and I might retract for now anyway because I can’t qualify it "
-I kinda like this response to juliet asking why he suspects her, not sure a wolf would dare answer it like this (input on scotty meta?)

"Are you trying to butter me up?
I haven’t forgot how you handled D1 and still think you’re bad because of it-"
"your initial logic around how to vote D1 and then your reasoning behind that pick didn’t match up and read as a baddie taking an easy scenic route but not realizing you only have 1/10 of a tank of gas.
It’s ok, I’m the police and I’m here to give you a ride back to the station-"
-Kinda like the tone in these interactions that happened directly to Colin.




Scum things:

"Slightly hypocritical though for me to still look primarily at low posters since I think I am one, but sometimes one needs to step outside themselves, ya dig?"
"I missed a lot and no one is talking about me just farting around over here."
"God I feel like a male milk cow in this game. Sorry for my lack of reads or investigative journalism. I’m working more than normal this month to prepare for my departure in July
(which btw is going to be a problem should this game not be over by then and I’m still alive)"

-I initially liked when I saw his farting around comment, since he took it up himself, but i don't like him saying it over and over, now it looks more scummy than towny in my eyes.

"Don’t worry about her, I already said I’m gonna kill her tonight. "
-I know some people that jokingly scumclaim as their meta always, but i generally see scum do it more rand.


-His whole Colin progression (it's kind of 1 whole big thing):

"Why nova above the ones with say 7 posts?
If it’s between the 2, why are they both on equal footing?
That doesn’t make sense to me Mr. Cool"

"And YET you flipped a coin with a player that had posted.
Colin man...I think your reasoning is a bit lazy here"

Don't really feel his push on Colin here. Feels like reaching for a case on something that's not or barely there. The phrasing of it all also pings me.

From that point he goes into acting pretty confident about Colin being scum, without further reasons that i could see. After he later vote Colin he starts to try to convince others about his weak (imo) push, which IS what a town would do if they actually believed it, while a scum might just give "reasons" and place their vote. So that part i actually don't hate.

"Why is Colin civ again?" Don't like this way of pushing Colin. Kind of acting like he cares for other's reasons for townreading him, but the question sounds rhetorical, and he really just wants to push the lynch.

And then he goes from statements like this: "Oh and this is just a friendly reminder that Colin is bad!"

To actually backing out because it felt "too easy" with Colin having sat on 4 votes for a long while. The reason for doubt just doesn't connect with the apparent strength he'd showed in the Colin read. And then after the Vomp lynch he went back to pushing Colin again with the non-sensical (to me when reading it anyway) legacy-arguments.
The only thing given me pause is that he's not followed up hard on Colin today, as in my eyes his switch looked like he wanted to keep Colin around and get another mislynch. But the whole process looks off to me regardless of that.


-Dislike him jumping hard straight at niju just for checking in because she was previously insanified, seems like he was potentially desperate to find another target after Speed kinda took his other target Kyle out of today's considerations?

"speedchuck what case do you buy from Dom? That I am Ramses and praise Sodom? It holds about as much data as a scratched CD-Rom, and now you’re just joining the wagon, NAUGHTY"
-He even @'s speed to try to disprove himself as ramses. Maybe because he feels more comfortable doing that than proving himself not scum since he is?



Other mention-worthy things:

-The thing about Dom being ramses, but that part wasn't as big as I thought it'd be, it was basically just a quick guess he threw out, so I don't think it looks too bad.

-Don't think INH and Scotty is ever scum together with the way scotty started shading INH for putting him as scum after him voting for LC. He also took it up himself later on. Doesn't look/feel like a partner interaction (especially the first reaction).



Conclusion: Leaning moderately scummy. I want other's input on especially my reasons for townreading him aswell as my thoughts on his Colin-progression and if it feels as off to you guys as it does to me.

[VOTE: Scotty] aubergine

speed, you wanna give your thoughts on this? I want to see them

The LC vote is okay, I guess. LC wasn't posting much, and so wasn't a huge loss for the town cred it would get. I'd put it at null, not towny.
The Colin push is pretty bad, I'll agree. Lack of reasoning, a combination of stubbornness and the lack of seriousness, and then the sudden jump off.

Those are the biggest notes I have. I don't hate the lynch.

Well woopty doo, I didn't prepare a video for a final-30-minute vote switch on Vompatti, either. Enjoy this shitty short YouTube clip, instead.

Linki: No I don't Scotty!!

rico (Very involved in SAW for most of last year)

nut (liked dataplex)
inh (never commented on Dataplex)
marmot (never commented on Dataplex)

speed (Aint me)
golden (not in here on N1)
colin (came into SAW much after dataplex)

It's probably not nutella, or she wouldn't be pursuing this.
Could be INH or Marmot.
It basically is not the last three.

I think it's just rico.
