I have an important deadline in 25 minutes. I will be with you all not too long after that.

Posted: **Sun Jan 05, 2020 6:39 pm**

I have to ask myself why would Dom keep on being all u so scummy but not scum if he was scum himself though? The only real thing it does is annoy me. So why would that be good? I guess defend his early stance or keep consistent with it, but it was literally just gut.

Posted: **Sun Jan 05, 2020 6:40 pm**

Thanks for answers, Sloon and Epi.
On my site there's a town bias in where town usually has the bigger effort, and as scum most people need to try to "live up" to their town meta.

Posted: **Sun Jan 05, 2020 6:40 pm**

Sometimes Dom is shining boom of town energy, but most of the time I have no idea how to read him.

Posted: **Sun Jan 05, 2020 6:40 pm**

I'm going to eat stuff. I don't really want to vote Dom anymore. Don't know who else though.

Posted: **Sun Jan 05, 2020 6:41 pm**

Shining beacon. I don’t know what a shining boom is. Like an explosion but sparkly?

I'm so confused by this. Like, in a meta game way. Is scum hunting not normal here? I know I've seen it before. I'm so obvious town that it's laughable. I feel I'm in a video game and suddenly the controller turns into one of those go right when press left kind of thing.
I don't feel that way about you at all.
I see you as a manipulative person in this game.

That's interesting actually. Can you articulate why you think that?
What's the goal of that post?

I'm not sure about manipulative but I've been getting a lot of "appeal to emotion vibes from dizzy. Like when you accuse him and he goes "do people not scumhunt in this site?" or when he questions if he belongs here

Though that could be NAI. I don't have enough games with Dizzy to be sure.

Posted: **Sun Jan 05, 2020 7:05 pm**

I could vote LC.

I don't feel strongly about voting any other active players, though.

Posted: **Sun Jan 05, 2020 7:07 pm**

I'm somewhat less motivated about this game than the previous one because I put such a ridiculous amount of effort and it didn't pay off.

Bit I'm trying not to flake completely.

So I'm mostly putting my feelings into words and trying to get a feel of people but not bothering to quote and stuff

Posted: **Sun Jan 05, 2020 7:08 pm**

I don't understand the case on Dom, though.

Like I've never known how to read him but he seems normal here.

Posted: **Sun Jan 05, 2020 7:11 pm**

TSP... i dunno. My rage at CFDs didn't last through the whole weekend so I could break my promise of not lynching him. But I have no reason to do so.

I'm okay with Sloonei. Not super okay, but fine with letting him live.

I think Sig is strong town, perhaps more than the people who voted for Creature.

I think LC is bad.

Timmer is a neuteal with a strong vote record.

Everyone else is a blur.

Posted: **Sun Jan 05, 2020 7:12 pm**

Lynching mac feels logical but it's so boring.

Posted: **Sun Jan 05, 2020 7:13 pm**

Perhaps unhelpful to most, but helpful to me. A list of non-A-listers:

Would not lynch today (in more or less this order):

Sloonei
Dyslexicon
timmer
sig
Michelle
TonyStarkPrime
Dragon D. Luffy

Would lynch today (in no particular order):

Dom
DrWilgy
Long Con
MacDougall

Shrug:
Sorsha

Posted: **Sun Jan 05, 2020 7:16 pm**

Yeah, I'm frustrated. I'm turning off how much I'm caring about this game though.

Reason I'm frustrated is for example right now, Dom called my vote lazy, say my play is manipulative (which is all fine btw). But then he brings up a quote from LC on D1 that he has a problem with, and the problem is basically "what was the goal of LC's post?" And I asked the exact same thing about LC's post on D1. Only when I said it, Dom confronted me about it and thought me scummy for it and looks like he voted me and his whole reason for reading me as scum grows out from that. It's the exact same question. So that's frustrating.

But never mind the frustration, if you can. What's important is - Is Dom scum for it?
And I'm not sure at all. Right now my gut feeling says no, but that' all I got.

Lately when I am a civilian and Dom is a civilian we have been experiencing this never before experienced sense of compatibility with regard to our thoughts.

I do not feel that here.

Posted: **Sun Jan 05, 2020 7:19 pm**

Epi was the only vote on Mac D1 (end poll).
Mac and Tony was on LC.

[VOTE: Mac] aubergine

PoE. No show. Could be scum. I wish he'd play.

I don't know if scum would be demotivated after the pretty random creature lynch. If so, that could pertain to LC too who's been here saying he should put in more effort, but then hasn't.

Along these lines, where’s Wilgy? Maybe moving my vote back there.

MacDougall is pretty competitive. I don't think he'd roll over Day 1, but I don't know if he was even around or available at the time.

You'll note that Tony is second to last on that list, which is in order, so it isn't a strong opinion. In relation to the other list (which is not in order, again), he's just not a strong choice for me today.

I literally had the same question about that post on D1 and you scalded me for it implying I was scum for questioning it.

Apart from that, I agree. That post from LC stood out to me too.

Epi started off gunslingin', firing votes all around. Twice, his vote hits Creature, which looks a bit like a light distancing tactic. Other posts for the early game are off-topic decade-discussion.

He slows down on the voting, but is just firing off accusations with no backup or followup, or just casual off-topic. I see no reason why he can't be bad. He tried to weakly claim Civ because "he never busses", and he had some Creature votes among his early RVS. The only reason I can think of for doing that is to try to draw attention to himself. I don't think Epi's bad, despite his low-effort play so far.

You have a funny way of reaching your conclusions that I don't think I'll ever understand.

Posted: **Sun Jan 05, 2020 8:27 pm**

The biggest issue right now is that there are 13* participants and only 7** votes on the board.

*12 participants if you are Dom.
**6 participants if you are Dom.

Posted: **Sun Jan 05, 2020 8:31 pm**

I could see an inactive scum team here. We’ve got a pretty nice set of common town reads with very few widespread suspicions. That could be because all the active participants are good honest Weird Al tunes. Because no one has ever fooled anyone in a mafia game before.

DDL: convince me to vote for Mac
Mac: say hi
Sig: give me a narrative about who’s bad and why it makes sense.

I am still a potato catching up, waking up at 2 am
What I liked and disliked reading until page 8 (on phone and in weekend who are busier for me irl) is that:
- i found Sloonei posting logical and he voted for scum, I see him villger
- i recall nothing from Epi except today he said he catched up many pages in one hour (i am envious

). So Iso-ed him, and I see he posted recently and voted. Leans villager.
- DDL came and told me Quin is dead with a plain tone, that i liked. This vote exists, just saying

Creature wrote: ↑Wed Jan 01, 2020 1:29 pm [VOTE: Luffy] aubergine

Maybe for shade, maybe for distancing, I am not sure in this site, I remember I misjudged an early interaction here :/
- Dizzy is sooo talkative and i didn't count but my impression is he posted like half of game until now and is villa for me, plus voted scum.
- Timmer voted scum, leans villager.
- Mac said like an oracle that Dom is scum (he let us to guess). Ok, noted, understand lack of time, i don't recognise meta, he can go either way.
- Dom. i stopped and Iso-ed him. He put a question, he said himself is a good question. But I see not much from him and I lean him scum
-TSP kinda liked his posts but I can't say why in this moment. Leans villa.
- Long Con, Sig, Wilgy idk

GTH i'd vote Dom rn.

No. I'm very lazy this game and have practically done nothing.

I missed it if he said he'd be active later.

Don't know if that's even a good reason not to lynch him.
I'm pretty indifferent for who to vote between you, Mac, Dom, Tony, Wilgy and Sorsha I guess. You're all not town reads, though some of you are definitely town.
