Basically everyone, because I have no idea who Town or Scum are.

Even my Townreads I can't tell because, as you know, Scum can be REALLY good at blending in.
no its not a trick question - its weird to me you say you're paranoid but I have no idea who you're even talking about. when i say i'm paranoid about something i usually point to a certain specific scenario - i dont see it used often as to say the entire game.

It doesn't help that he's not engaging much, and I don't know if he's Scum or not, but I am willing to compromise on a lil if it means getting a flip.

What I would prefer is if he jumps in and starts engaging more. Now that I have a small bubble of time I can pick at this game a bit and just let my thoughts flow.

so many people dont care about this elim
no counterwagon really
barely any information from him
feels like we will be operating p low info in d2
he could easily flake as townie

If you're Town like me I'm trying to reach out to you and try to make a connection this game. For me personally my gamestate is that I'm literally paranoid of everyone (as TOWN) because I have been fooled many times before by Scum. By that same token when I am Scum I struggle hard because you have to act as Town despite knowing you're Scum: I'm a terrible liar. As Town I can take as many liberties as I want because I legit don't know and win with Town.

I think with you and me it's more like differences in gameplay and perspective, assuming you're Town. My absolute strengths are actually my aggression and interrogation as my main. When I can start chewing into the game and pumping out content and sorting people out, that's where I find my strength. It's just tough when you're constantly working and mentally drained.

Despite having been inactive for awhile I would hazard a guess that Scum are among the inactive because it benefits them greatly. That said I could be very wrong. How do you guys feel on that?

like just reading thru your iso in this completed micro:

viewtopic.php?sid=&f=83&t=91156&user_select%5B%5D=37068

you have a lot more aggression and you're trying to kill someone

here it feels like you ghosted for a week and you don't really care that much and a lot of things you say are for show rather than you are actually hunting/invested

like from this post on. it implies you have IMPORTANT THINGS to do so you will be BIG MAD if anyone DARES to cut the day short but like you don't really do anything from this post to today. Hence why it feels like you're just signaling what you think correct town play should be rather than actually following up with anything.

the same basically with regards to t3 - feels kinda scummy to me / isn’t really playing the game

with regards to the wagon idk hard to judge wagon behaviour when noone’s posting like maybe(?) it’s odd that everyone is okay with it dunno

Part of it is because I really struggle Day 1 as Town because I have no workable data. Part of it has to do with my work schedule and some of the interactions with the players here, and as Town it makes me not want to really engage if I feel like I'm slamming my head against a wall. I think, perhaps, once Day 2 begins and I'm still alive you'll see a difference in play because then I'd actually find some footing in these waters. Day 1 I always kind of languish because I literally have nothing to work with, and everything Day 1 is nothing but speculation.

In general I really don't like sudden quickhammers, before someone even has a chance to claim. On my main over the decade I've seen how bad it can be when someone quickhammers. For my recently completed game on this alt I quickhammered, and guess what it was the Cop. And then in endgame the VT Deltabreedy quickhammered the other VT.

Point is, it's better to just let the player speak when they're at L-1. Otherwise you're just asking for chaos.

ok lets say we flip t3 and he flips town and then we wake up tomorrow and i'm dead and flipped town

what do you do at that point?

In this situation what I usually do is just check their profile and see if they've been online and compare it to their current gameplay.

And, if they're online/posting, but not posting in the game, THEN it's time to make a deal out of it.

what do you do at that point?

At that point I would then start combing through the game thread and try to look for associations, to try and tell if other members were coming after you, trying to cast suspicion, avoiding questions, etc. For me personally the game actually begins on Day 2, because now I have something tangible in my hands to work with. I'd also be keen to compare their votes or lack thereof with yours and his, and try to make deductions based on that data.

Hello :3
I'll be there for the meeting, sorry for not being around much but stagnant game = stagnant reads and not much has altered the way I view things at this point
I considered T3 vs Chicago as votes yesterday but T3's done nothing I found townie while Chicago has at least had little things I enjoyed, so I'm not compelled to change my vote there

To be honest I don't feel confident about a T3 lim. Meuh does give me gut Scum vibes. Kcdaspot I'm not too sure about either, but I feel more uneasy about the Meuh slot. All 3 of them actually discussing instead of reactively fighting would actually be fruitful.

If we're talking a lim that yields the most data it would be Medeia based on all her exchans, but I'm not currently sold on her being Scum.
