I may as well go ahead and say what I think my reads are going to be at the end of the reread. There are only six pages plus this one left.
I'm calling the team as {VasudeVa, ElectricBadger, animorpherv1}.
VV has said very little to break up the status quo or create content and made quite a few terrible excuses for as much (not including the foreign language one, although it wasn't sufficient to cover what he was trying to dust under the rug with it). I'm disappointed that we didn't stay on him after Page 4 or so. He's the one who tried to get us to test the vote count color theory long after everyone decided it didn't exist AND if it did it was certainly anti-Town. His attention to Robocopter flowed right with everyone else's, but he kept his options open just in case (#21). His vote on ani is not out of line with newbscum trying to distance; his wariness of the E-Badger lynch (which actually has a chance to happen) fits too. Plus really.
VV #33 wrote:Robo's most recent post is, again, consistent with his scum meta. Don't know what I think of this yet but it's WIFOM-y as hell. Is he consciously following up his scum meta to say 'Hey you've studied my meta, why would I do the same stuff?'. Don't like, he's my preferred deadline lynch ATM(Policy/slightscumread and what else). Getting rid of WIFOM makes Mafia easier(Thinking back, I realize that maybe I should not have done those studies...You learn something new everyday x.X).
"Getting rid of WIFOM makes Mafia easier", but that's
exactly what he's throwing up in this post!
I guess I can throw in the immediate reaction to vote me for suspecting him without actually commenting on why I suspected him.
ElectricBadger is still scumhunting only in a reactionary fashion or to push the Robocopter wagon when it started to get good. Oh, and token omnino/Maemuki pressure. This has been rehashed at length. Why are so many people missing this.
ani takes the wild card slot for reasons mentioned in 527. Of all the lurkers, he's the least believable. (cut) Plus of all the wagons he chose to mention in 530, it was refusal to join E-Badger. What about dramonic (the "wagon" ani is on now), Robocopter (the leading wagon), or TonyMontana (the fresh challenger wagon)? Evidently not much.
Looking over it again, TonyMontana is on paper the biggest lurker, but I don't really think it was that malicious, especially compared to ani.
dramonic is within Too Scummy to be Scum range. While his vote on Robocopter is beyond terrible and he specifically says he doesn't want to vote either of my top suspects, I don't think he could try to play this badly. If I'm wrong on this and he's playing to his Town meta as scum, we shall herd him into Mafia Discussion and publicly stone him.
Final answer on Robocopter will likely be VI. Please remove yourself from this wagon unless you have a really compelling reason not to.
I haven't liked a lot of what Seacore has posted but at the same time I don't know if I can equate that with coming from scum.
hp[leaves]/Maemuki is the closest thing to a complete blank. His response to the call to lynch TonyMontana is Townish IMO, so I don't think I want to lynch him Today at least.
There's an outside chance LlamaFluff could be scum with this blatant derail from ElectricBadger and a few other twitches from earlier, but that chance is small enough that I'm not going to bother with it until something else happens. Plus if he doesn't deliver any of this stuff he says he's been keeping in reserve, he's going to be "uncomfortable" tomorrow, and I'd like to think that's not going to happen.
I don't necessarily like everything farside has posted but it seems consistent with Town effort. If I'm wrong, her new avatar should be the Wicked Witch of the West - the anti-Mom.
Ellibereth is etc.
tl;dr Of the three existing wagons {Robocopter, ElectricBadger, TonyMontana} the only one I plan to be on is ElectricBadger.
Everything you say and do matters. People will respond in ways you may never see. May those responses be what you intend.
