Towel and RR probably town, there's scum in invis/umlaut.

in the meantime can we get an explanation here?

[Datisi]

Doctor Drew replaces towwl.

[Doctor Drew]

Howdy all.

Gonna read up shortly.

[Cook]

welcome, doctor drew

[Meuh]

It is oh so very tempting to put Cook at E-1

Bad vibes in this post

[Meuh]

Like I've said the same thing before but the vibes here particularly irk me

[Meuh]

For the record, while I do still consider this Mostly an RVS vote, I also don't take putting her at E-1 lightly, and have a small seed of reasoning behind it.

RR town woooooooooo

[Meuh]

VOTE: towel

I am a big believer in omgus theory

Getting town Ausuka energy here but I've never played with her as scum so I'm not sure what I should even be looking for

what is that reasoning?

If I were ready to share it, I would have done so with the vote. For now, just know that there Is reasoning.

suspicious but i'll buy it

I think I get it

i'm missing something

she does not know laughing crying emoji

I like this back and forth on both ends, for Invisbility more than for Cook though

VOTE: Towwl

VOTE: Towwl yea

Firebringer noticing this post is nice actually
Invisibility can be town

[Radical Rat]

I'm too lazy to count now, what's towwl/Drew at now?

[Meuh]

VOTE: invis gatekeeping knowledge

Do not like this one

[Meuh]

On a somewhat related note, I think Rat and Cook are town.

Why Cook?

[Meuh]

VOTE: Merlyn

Semi-serious, I don't claim to have any sort of meaningful read here but there are a few things I don't like.

This is where I'd vote Merlyn if I wasn't already

[Meuh]

Towwl is there a particular reason you jumped to thinking that playing with fire was a scumslip instead of using the idiom in the traditional sense of “engaging in a dangerous activity” like, I dunno, an RVS E-1?

I probably should've used a /s on that line. What initially pinged me about 60 and led me to post 64 is what I see as fake caution. After Merlyn asked me about it I noticed the wordplay (but thought it was coincidental) so I poked fun at it by calling it a scumslip.

weirdest post in the thread so far. to recap: you made up some shit that was obviously wrong, got called out on it, and backpedaled off of “it was a joke?”

it’s amateur hour

Original post made it pretty clear to me it was a joke? Not towwl's fault you can't read

[Invisibility]

hi Dr. Drew MD

[Meuh]

It's very clearly a scumslip as she responds to somebody sheeping her as "playing with fire" when the title of this game characterizes the mafia as fire.

The more serious reason is [yadda yadda yadda]

I was asking cuz I dunno what you're saying when Towwl says he's joking in this post. Like, yeah, if it was after someone called him out then sure it could be backpedaling but this is in the same post. Jeez the Wheeze

Yeah this!

[Bingle]

counter counter counterpoint: there are two skygazers, and one only tells the truth and one only lies

As French swordspeople might say, Tushy.

[Meuh]

osuka reminds me of confident town players trying to emulate their playstyle as scum but not actually believing the bullshit they're saying
Reminds me a lot of Baltar in this game actually viewtopic.php?t=90886
VOTE: osuka

[Radical Rat]

Regarding Cook, I didn't really get what I wanted out of that. I was hoping to keep her at E-1 for a bit, or at least have Cook be the one to break it.

But I thought that towwl's resistance to being the E-1 vote looked performative, and the Ausuka vote was a bit chainsawy, and given the nature of the setup, I wasn't worried about scum lolhammering... but I expect scum to be nervous about Town lolhammering.

In a normal setup I probably would have just voted towwl there instead, but with E-1 being (relatively) safe, more informative, and more fun... I wanted to see how the cookie crumbled.

[Meuh]

To answer the "why Merlyn" questions:

I recognize everyone but Meuh and Cook

VOTE: Meuh no one recognizes them, must mean something

This isn't a big deal but for some reason I can't express it seemed more "forced" than the other random votes, and also a bit like picking on the player you perceived as least experienced.

VOTE: invis gatekeeping knowledge

Really dumb reason for a vote and looks like going through the motions of voting for things you think you ought to find suspect instead of things that actually are.

Yooooooooooo the mindmeld is crazy, Umlaut town

[Bingle]

so you just ask em "who is the opposite of what the other one says i should vote" and then you, like, take the opposite or something.

You can't ask subjective questions of absolutist answerers, it leads to a Turing breakdown.
