I don't hard think Trans is town but before the whole hammer and AtE bull he wouldn't have been who I was voting.
I faked it
I faked a dumb tell as a last resort
I have 500 pro town posts and the 2 that i faked are the only ones you tred

Matt the problem is u used the same ate in the em game
I almost always tend to tr ate
It’s my soft spot, but if someone uses it once on me and they’re a wolf I can never take their ate seriously again and I’ll sr it by default

I no longer care about the 5% or whatever possibility of Transcend being town. I just want him dead. He is a massive liability even if he is green and he is most likely red.
^ For those who are worried about him flipping green.
He has explicitly stated he is not trying any more and has lost his WIM. He has explicitly stated that he has faked the hammer. There is no universe where this guy benefits town if he survives. He is at best the third impostor and most likely just a regular impostor.
There's nothing that says a fake can't surpass the real thing.

If Transcend is red then trying to get people to re-eval on him is suspicious. Mindlessly dogpiling him is townie. That is why I said to turbo Wiml if Transcend flips red.

@Esooa what do you think of Alexa and Ilario reading these howling wiml posts as lock town?
Maybe say what those posts are instead of pulling stiff out of your ass?
Alison is doing that part for me.
If they weren't howling then Alexa and Ilario would have no cause to double down on townreading you in spite of them.
Everyone can see that they are bad. I don't need to articulate the obvious.
