I don't disagree. My point is he isn't very good at it, as it applies to this game and the optimal use of the gun by the town.

What is the optimal firearm strategy?

The person who gets it doesn't particularly matter (today. a civ is likely to get shot regardless of whether town or mafia hold the gun), outside of being someone who can be trusted to use thread consensus on a handful of names and choose from that sub-group.

I want your 3-5 to answer whether I'd trust you with the gun, because I want thread consensus on 3-5 people and you're around and building that is more important then who specifically gets it. I trust you, regardless of alignment, to go choose from the consensus, so I'd be fine with you having the gun. I think Duskfall getting the gun is absurd, because I think he's made it pretty blatantly obvious he can't be trusted to listen to the thread at large, only people who fit inside his box. He wants to get the gun and also surround himself with yes-men in how he carries out using it. And while I can see him as town, that's also a great way, if he gets the gun, for him to wind up shooting me (or some other town he goes off and chooses) and then also being mis-shot for carrying out the mis-shot down the line, when the group runs out of leads and inevitably turns on him.

I explicitly said that I would not hero shoot more than once

You are equating me with having different scumreads than what other peoples have with wanting only yes men and not being trusted

Do you think not agreeing with thread always makes someone untrustworthy?

I think you're asking the wrong questions by such a huge margin that it's painful.

Why?

She would want it as town, and make a pretty noticeable effort to form a base that townreads her and will vote for her. That lack of any effort at forming a base (and her explanation for it: Hyena and I suspecting her) is suspicious to me. Anyone town should be on a strong offensive, and that's what her offensive in this format is what I think we'd see. It isn't what I'm seeing from her, I'm seeing some posturing offense and way to much of a defensive mindset. It doesn't fit.

“I’m not seeing exactly what I expect to see from nutella thus she’s scum” isn’t particularly compelling to me, tbh. Would you not expect her to go for the gun as scum? Like, isn’t not going for the gun unexpected for her as either alignment?

Idk it just seems uh....flimsy.

Who are you shooting if you get the gun and why?

If you’ve already said in the last page, welp, I’ll read that later.

My read of you is unrelated to my opinion of how accurate you’ll be in a group comprised mostly of people you’ve played 0-2 games with, yeah?

Boo, why don't you want the gun and why aren't you trying to get the gun?

I would take the gun, but I'm never going to get more then a total of 3 votes to receive it, so spending my time trying to get it would be wasted.

I don’t think you’ll hero shoot someone you don’t know? But even if you’re picking from a group of 3-5 you still have to be accurate within that group, yeah?
