umlaut has a different opinion on that so unless you're scum we might have a problem.In post 3006, Thestatusquo wrote:I think your slot is pretty much confirmed to be scum mechanically from my pov so there's that.

obviously yes my claim could be that. and obviously im answering this question fmpov, which is what you were trying to understand in the first place.
i appreciate you're pushing your perspective but this feels disingenuous-

i'm not saying you should be acknowledging another gambit and i'm not ~implying~ anything? i'm being completely explicit - the way you dismissed a nokill carte blanche as SILLINESS felt disingenous.-

pedit: pooky humour me - why would bulge actually shoot outworlder rather than consolidate their own claim there?

Why would scum target Kasu N3 and not the person who was claiming IC?
this is why I didn't believe your LJK claim at first, I'm still not sure I do.In post 3010, OutWorldER wrote:It really is not indisputable fact. I can think of multiple reasons scum would no-kill, such as wanting to gambit a protective claim during MeLo to try and secure the win today, or not seeing good targets for a kill because said kills might implicate one of the team
I am, however, not seeing any reason to target Kasu.In post 3025, OutWorldER wrote:VOTE: No Eliminate
I think this is probably the best option today.
If I die tonight then Bulge is most likely lying about his claim. The only possibility he's not is if there's a strongman, which, I hate to try and outguess the mod, but I doubt in this setup. He should absolutely target me.
Bulge dying clears Kasu meaning we have two conftown going into Day 5.
Anybody else dying we'll cross the bridge as we come to it, but I still think we have good info regardless.
i was like literally drooling over the idea of literally any flip coming into this phase and nearly fell off my chair
but i actually kind of believe bulge - i'm not actually sure what the scum motivation for shooting outworlder is-

I did read thru all of our dead/confirmed town isos and tracked their voting history. give me a minute to add post tags to my draft so it's at least semi-legible, and I'm hoping to continue along the same track for the rest of you 5 as well as finish my anti-associatives table. hold up

let's talk about this some more.In post 3117, The Bulge wrote:the fact you keep bringing up occam's razor as if anything about your stance on me isn't riddled with massive assumptions is laughable.
Shea keeps bringing up occam's razor as if his me-scum theory doesn't hypothesize that I have been one-man-show scumtheatring it up since the start of day 3, wasting all of my faction's actions on the stupidest fucking unnecessary wifomy bullshit multi-phase huge-target-on-my-back "play" that gives scum-me ZERO clout, credit, or credibility. all of that after 3 miselims in a row and 3 dead prs? get the fuck outta here you don't believe any of that for a fucking second.
Pooky acts like me being scum should be the most obvious thing in the world, when anyone reading the game can clearly tell this is an extremely complicated and nuanced situation (or else guess what? I would have been dead already if it's so cut-and-dry). he has stopped dead in his tracks on any other lead he's been following this whole game. Is that something a townie does when HALF OF THE OTHER LIVING PLAYERS ARE SCUM, or something scum does when they 1)need one more miselim to win, 2)there is a player who has put a huge target on their own back, 3)and so far this game they have been successful at manipulating the town thru three miselims in a row?
I don't feel like I've seen anyone solve the hoodies
I feel uncomfortable because Shea's solve is incorrect and yday I very much got the "it's PoE so :shrug:" vibe and I'm hoping he is scum so he's not town who is about to just lose this game
I'm terrified Pooky is about to do that Pooky thing where he gets so overwhelmingly flamboyantly explosive about one point that he forgets the rest of the game exists
I see what's going on and I see your rebuttles and I'm like. yeah no I need to do more legwork before I'm ready to end this game. cue Shea screaming that this is wishy washy.-

that's utterly wrong. every player in every game has a vote. fundamentally, the onus is on a player to play the game rather than just policy yeeting into oblivion - we're humans playing a game of mafia, not a mafia simulation. if you always blast lowposters or lurkers you stop playing mafia and start playing "spot the wikipedia scumtell". but like i'm obviously doing what i can to show that i'm town.-

I suspect Shea and Gamma for reasons already discussed.
I also have yet to hear a reason for kasu being town and am still rather cross about not having that answer. It's getting to the point where people are just saying he's town and then leaving it at that and it's driving me nuts.
There are just way too many people to suspect so I'll probably end up narrowing it down between TSQ and bulge for the sake of simplicity - Gamma is obviously anti shea though which puts me in a weird position I think.
suppose i'm allergic to scrolling back. eli5 shea & gamma as scum for me. i tend to lean shea before bulge as well but i'm working off my sense of smell. gamma is kinda in lurker null territory for me atm-

If the day is just going to end with gamma the worst the bulge and kasu voting me then I'd rather just do it now. I'm pretty frustrating.

I don't have the mental strength to deal with it when I feel like 2 or even three of those people are scum anyway.
Meanwhile bulge is caught scum. His play makes no sense from a town perspective repeatedly. Every day of this game. And he would be dead if he were town and I am, so either vote me or bulge and get it over with so I can move on with my life.

like pooky is exactly correct, that scumteam needs outworlder dead quite a lot more than a scumteam WITHOUT bulge
i have no idea what this team's POA is coming into d5 but i feel like shea voting bulge is just literally not it
i'm pretty startled that bulge still hasn't crossvoted shea despite shea being mechscum fhpov and i'm pretty sure this is a guilty conscience indicator
