Not anymore I don't.

My note is around the fact that you ever did in the first place.

Did you think I was Pamela?

I was hoping for evidence that you could be, rather than evidence you weren't.

I'm not Pamela.

What has caused you to flop from 'jack could be on elos team' to 'jack is not on elos team'?

Quin wrote: ↑Mon Jul 24, 2017 8:49 pm Interesting change of pace for me to only have town reads at an EoD. I'm not voting Wilgy, Tony or Dom. The Wilgy/Tony thing reads town, and Tony really put himself out there with all his cryptic posts if it was a gambit. Dom just feels genuine, and is more thorough in comparison to my perception of his scum game.

I've currently ruled out Jack and Epi from at least one scum team. I think Jack's mistake in thinking Eloh flipped bad was an honest mistake, because a teammate would know ahead of time. For him to know and still make the mistake intentionally for the attention is tinfoil. At this time, it doesn't seem likely Epi would self-silence. So just for the sake of probability, I'm unlikely to vote either of them.

I think Jack is more likely to be bad than rico
I think sprit is more likely to be bad than INH

But it looks like the choice is going to be between rico and inh.

linki @Quin - that's a decent point re Jack. Why would you slip if you knew your teammate would flip civ?

actually agree on both points.

I still think Epi is the most sus, but I'll follow you on a Jack or sprit lynch. I'd lean sprit there.

Boomslang wrote: ↑Mon Jul 24, 2017 9:20 pm Lost track of time today. Don't think Rico or INH is bad. Don't think I can get support for a TSP lynch at this point, even though I think his secrets are likely to be bad. So voting Jack, whom I remember distrusting earlier.

To clarify, I'd still be fine with an INH lynch, I think his death reveals more about others. But he seems a little more townie than sprit and sprit could reasonably be on both teams.

Rico's primary contribution has been "INH is bad" and INH's primary contribution has been "Wie is me. Stop trying to lynch me. Rico's secondary contribution has been the LC vote analysis. INH's secondary contribution has been to say non posters are least suspicious.

So I'm a vacuum, I trust Rico over INH. Stupid fake post restriction doesn't change that, though I think it IS an anti town strategy.

So at that point, Golden and Sprityo float the idea that Rico is the bad one and INH is good. Okay but wtf do you think INH is the good one? This looks like a politician ploy to lynch the guy who won't defend himself properly, complete with an "angry" Sprityo vote like "whoops no takebacksies." So I'm super convinced I need to be on Rico's side and I'll strong arm some people to keep a fellow townie from being lynched.

But since Eloh was a politician, it means that if INH is a politician, he has no buddies so this isn't a politician ploy. If INH is Strex, It didn't show much in the poll where LC got lynched. Plus Golden is definitely not Strex and I wanna say I have reason to believe Sprityo isn't, either. (Will double check.)

So now I'm back to Rico and INH in a vacuum. I still prefer an INH lynch but I'm not as certain Rico is the good one.

Like 60-35 instead of 80-20.

Oh, yeah, there is that. Mh.

INH
Boomslang
Sprit

I want Jack around a little longer, and Rico... I wouldn't oppose a lynch there, but I also don't reeeallly think Rico is scum. It's iffy.

linki: Do agree with INH though. He has had other contributions, and people are weirded out by them because he doesn't read townies.

Jack, you of all people should have absolute certainty that I am not a politician. You say you can read me, you think the most like me, yet you still won't acknowledge the truth of the fact that I would not allow my team to force you to vote for me when I was already under the pump. This probably bothers me the most about you, because I expect you should strongly believe I'm not in on a politician ploy.

I don't agree with your characterisation of INH. He has made rainbow lists, he has expressly explained aspects of it whenever asked. He does talk a lot about why Rico's case against him is incorrect, but why wouldn't he? Rico accuses him of being responsible for the curse, epi picks it up, and neither have given an objective reason why it's more likely to be inh than anyone else, a point INH has made several times but that seems to be just ignored. To say inh's secondary contribution is 'non posters are least suspicious' is to ignore a tonne of his content, and whats more it mischaracterises what he said about low posters, which was "I can't read people for town tells, so they end up least suspicious to me by default", in essence.

The reason I floated the idea that rico is bad is - what possible evidence is there that he isn't a politician? He is hiding behind a gimmick in a way that prevents him having to explain himself. All he is doing is saying what he thinks, not why he thinks it, and it leaves us utterly unable to analyse his motives, removing the primary way in which we can judge him to be good or bad.

Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 24, 2017 9:41 pmThat's crap on the INH list. His top townies were basic non participants (at the time) because they hadn't said anything suspicious yet. That's not remotely helpful.

I'm far from tunnelling. I'm working out my vote, and I'm getting you to engage with me. Don't ask me who you're teamed with as though that is convincing, for all I know it's LC and timmer, I don't find the concept persuasive. I have no way to know whether you are being honest about the silencing thing - it rings true, but its wifom.

Isn't the conventional logic that the more split the vote, the more likely to catch a baddie, due to them being psyched out and not able to control the narrative?
