Open 785: Secrets of the Anuket Topaz [Game over!]

[Snowblaze]

Although there is one thing I want to note: A50's reasoning for getting Fredrick to vote me is just... "if she's town, that means Titus will have to reconsider whether you're scum". Which... no. That is not a reason you should ever be voting for anyone if you're town.

(Also I want a pagetop. Pagetops are nice.)

If one does not have a strong scumread, why not?

[Snowblaze]

...because town aren't trying to clear themselves or be townread, town are trying to eliminate scum.

[Fredrick A Campbell]

...because town aren't trying to clear themselves or be townread, town are trying to eliminate scum.

But I didn't have a strong scumread on anyone. Would not voting for you help me eliminate scum?

[Snowblaze]

From my PoV, yes. Also the declaration of intent to hammer implies you think Maemuki is more likely to be scum than me.

You're right that I thought Maemuki is more likely to be scum than you when I declared my intent to hammer Maemuki. However, when I placed my vote on you, I didn't have any scumreads.

[Titus]

Mae is at E-1 just so everyone knows
Snow is E-2

Raya in there with the VC misinformation again I see

The tone of this is yuck.

I don't quite get what you meant about the tone now that I've seen that it was misinformation.

It's the word again. It implies repeated malfeasance rather than innocent error. It's very side angle at Raya being scum aka shading Raya.

[Eevee]

what do you think of my newfound VCA skills Titus

pretty impressive right

~Eve

i need validation Titus

good job on lynching maemuki btw - post hammer reaction bodes well i'd say

~Eve

[RCEnigma]

I hate almost all of these posts, this one included.

[Eevee]

~Eve

[Menalque]

I'm super fucking tired and at this point just wanna see the flip and go from there

I think your scumhunting skills were good today if we lynched scum. I am not sure I'd call your analysis VCA as you haven't said much beyond Maemuki scum as far as I recall. Good job regardless.

[Almost50]

I almost always fumble for what to say in twilight. I want a FLIP to formulate rigid opinions on the living players myself. I'll give you only 2 examples (one for each possibility): Town!Mae = Town!Menalque from my own PoV. Scum!Mae = Town!Umlaut. Either way I would have 2 alignments known to me (Mae + Menalque/Umlaut) and can take it from there.

[Almost50]

^In case anyone finds a way to say "fluff", it IS a prodge.^

[Montosh]

I think at this point we just need a flip and to work from there. Just from having read through this day you get the sense it's gone on too long.

[Umlaut]

Tmw you hammer to end the day and then the day never ends

[quote="In post 878, Maemuki]
that said, reading the whole thread, i do still genuinely believe snow is scum but not just because of that. there are far too many appeals to emotion, "let's get this over with already". if you're town and you're almost certainly getting eliminated why would you be defeatist? with 24 hours to the deadline you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. wanting to rush through a day, no matter if it's just 24h is a scumtell, imo

This basically mirrors the feelings I expressed about snow earlier, albeit expressed in more detail. With all the emotional manipulation I feel coming from their posts, I definitely feel the need to get a flip from that slot in particular.

In other news I apparently am bad a forum-ing lol.

I'm just bad at reading when I'm tired. Sorry

With 12 alive, it’s 7 to lynch. The Day 2 deadline is in (expired on 2020-07-30 18:57:59).

[Menalque]

Hmm

I didn’t think fredrick would be in there necessarily

None of the others are that surprising, maybe titus?

So

(S_S, RCE, montos, ydrasse, raya, A50, me)

[Menalque]

Fmpov there’s 2 scum out of 6 in the other names there

If I find one then we win even if I get mis-guillotined today which I think is moderately likely and which I won’t oppose too much if people can’t see me as town. I think in fairness it may be quite hard as the approach I’d have taken here as scum would probably have been more or less identical, just oriented towards “saving partner” instead of “just plain wrong”
