I don't always rea posts fully btw, skimreading helps grasp tone/vibe/flow a lot better.

I read later for in depth slip spotting etc.

I like to read across many ISO posts of supers to traps their flow in a game. Yours seems much more opportunistic than scumhunting oriented.

How do differentiate between lurky minimalistic town and lurky minimalistic scum?
If we assume HA is fake, it makes no sense for him to be the fourth vote genuinely enabling that elimination.

It also doesn't seem minimalistic to drop Sus on HA in the first place if he is HA's partner.

If HA is real, it is possible Ming is scum but why did he stop reacting? I feel if he is Scum he keeps pushing for HA to go as a fake there. I also feel him being very engaged earlier but suddenly bored is matching many other players, majority of who have to be Town.

A minimalistic Towny tends to try harder when others do and when they think it matters and disengage when they don't see others trying hard and think it doesn't matter.

I think scum back off of a PR claim for the town points quite often. And I would also argue that ming hasn't ever really been "very engaged". He has ten posts, and most of them come from a pointless argument with Robb in which ming doesn't even feel like he's trying to sort Robb

Huh? Scum do what you're describing here all the time. As the effort goes up the scum are pressured to try and keep up. Scum also thrive when everyone is doing nothing and they can blend right in

VOTE: RationalMadman

Behaviorally I think Rational reads town but I'm starting to think that may just be a personality thing. The reads on me/ming/and LK feel manufactured

I think town!Rational would have an issue with LK going from 0 to 100 on halfasleep. If the thought process of "Black = scum due to halfasleep vote" is real then Rational would have found an issue with LK's progression too. Him completely ignoring it makes it possible that LK is his buddy and / was a coordinated push to get HA to claim

I also feel like Rational may be spewing ming as town here because the townread makes so little sense that it feels like it has to be informed, though there's a chance he's just coming up with awful reasons to defend his buddy. Regardless I think Rational is probably more likely to flip scum

I would support a rational lynch if others do. They are back to a null read to me and we really won’t be able to work together. I’d still rather an awesome or hu lynch though.

so why did Awesomeming vote HA if he is Scum?

go ahead, then vote Black off. I am pretty sure that's Scum. After Black, you are high on the list of potential scum as is HA, depending how later claims and progression go regarding her cop claim.

LK didn't vote HA, being willing to hammer is different to going 0 to 100
