Well Seven just may be scum, so I'm not sure you want to trust his opinion on Wam.

Even if Seven isn't scum, based on last game I'm not sure how much to trust her opinion on stuff.

Vote: wam

For the first question, I assume you mean that all the info in the OP was copypasted from the signup thread? I mostly just got the "town picks for scum, scum picks for town" paradigm from that thread.

Second question, I was okay with GF when it was just "shows up as town to cops." It wasn't until people started saying it had more embroidery to it than that that I found out we were dealing with mutant versions of the classic roles.

No, at the start of the game, you saw weak doc on the list. How did you not notice there are two docs on the list?

How can you have possibly missed it? You read carefully. You think this is fake??

Really wish you hadn't said that. We could have used this to subtly bait out dumb scum trying to train Mak. Literally just put that in my notes as a possible strategy, now I have to figure some other way to bait a scum misplay.

Also, Swiss, are you suggesting I'm popping in to a situation where I'm actively putting myself in unnecessary danger and doing it in a flippant manner? I would never

I actually have no memory of that post, and I definitely iso'd Fred.

Ok, hang on. Fred has had like 5 games and 4 of them were scum games? Please correct if that is wrong. He's most familiar with scum thought processes, because that's what he's played, and this line of thought reflects that.

I don't like word "we" in it, because it has a baked in assumption that Zen is town. I'll give some benefit of the doubt here for Zen's meta that Fred just normally sounds sure of himself.

I also don't really follow the logic. There already was a wagon on Mak. The bait already happened. Why not, like, look there instead of dropping on a lazy vote on Moody just because Moody was the person who didn't get off the wagon?

I see the notes thing, that is a towny thing to say. The idea of baiting scum fits with his newness and history. I don't think he cleared off of it?

I'm going to think for bit.

This all might be moot if Moody is scum, anyway. Fred's vote timing would have been real shitty to do to a partner.

Please talk more about this.

Everyone should vote wam or moody. 1.5 hours to deadline and we need a yeet.

unvote: Seven

Vote: Wam

I'm getting scummier vibes from Wam than I am Moody.

@fonti also please respond to my evaluation of wam's "town slip".

I'm overwhelmed, I'm phone posting and even when I'm on a computer, the way avatars are on the right side if the screen fucks with my ability to differentiate posts.

I don't imagine almost everyone being ponies helps any. We'll probably revert after this game is over.

How did you ISO Fred's posts?

You think he put too much thought into what roles scum would give town for the weak doc thing, but you also think he put no thought into how scum could fake claim. If scum!Wam overthought role distributions, wouldn't he have also thought about safe fake claims?

So then how can you blame the avatars for overwhelming you?

When I scroll, I don't see the post change. I'm used to picking that up on the left side as I go. It's a visual bug thing, and I end skipping posts without realizing, even when isoing. Normally, I'd have more time to re-read and that would cover it, and that's what I'm trying to do rn, but my time is limited.

I will vote for Moody over wam.

The notes are for my eyes only as the full document has enough information to give away my full role. Reads come after the notes are done and is a separate document that I will be sharing in its completeness.

I like this. Chill dismisal of Bessie's request.

I ask, because I only play from my phone so the avatars don't even show up on the side. They are small and in the top left corner of every post. Maybe it's a different phone, but I still don't understand how you're blaming the avatars for anything.

Especially when that part is in the middle of his posts, so it's not like you're going to get it confused with someone else's.
