M54: Not a Carrot Conspiracy

[e.m.c^42]

balki's style throws me off to automatically sus, unfortunately. Probably result of sending too much press, but he fumigates scheming the way I do coy.

He does have few holes in defense (from skim) that lie in claiming large separation between scum!self and town!self, though. But it is not of import.

I don't understand what you mean. Could you please clarify?

He postulates (or otherwise implies) his scum game is crafted and therefore cannot be referenced along with his town game, which falls in face of how regardless of effort there will be tells nonetheless. But Fox has holes as well, so leaning towards putting this aside till later.

emc typically waits until EOD to vote, but it is not typical for him to only show up and play at EOD.

This is correct. I usually jump to top 4/5 posters overall in game but there are outside circumstances this game.

[Foxcastle]

EMC, do you have an actual reason for voting Xorxes?

When you say you want to see what happens, what are you specifically waiting for?

I understand that you may have more important things going on, but your showing up only at EOD on the days where you are at risk of getting lynched looks suspicious.

[Fluminator]

I think I underestimated how important knowing EMC's alignment is.
It's an added bonus he's the last lurker.

Fox, can you get off Balki and join like you said you would?

about 1 hour remains

I thought we had one more day...

Damn it. Dudes, we have none of the effing EMC voters even as a contending wagon today. This is miserable, miserable play.

Ridiculous how?

What is the reason for your vote?

[Balki Bartokomous]

Seriously, this is awful.

Is there really one hour left?

And why isn't anyone voting for the six people who did not vote for scum on the 7-6 lynch of scum?

Ridiculous

If EMC is scum, then I'll probably join you on him tomorrow.
Lets check EMC first.

[Balki Bartokomous]

People need to get off Xorxes, or state a real reason to vote him, despite the fact that he started the wagon of the first scum lynch of the game. That ought to buy him one day for God's sake.

Why do you think EMC is scum?

Sorry, I have been generally following the thread, but I haven't like sat down and focused on it in a bit -- had in my head that EOD was tomorrow.

Is this just an info lynch for you or do you think EMC is scum?

Fox, can you get off Balki and join like you said you would?

And indeed, there will be time

@kgray, @xorx,

I am quite committed to voting for Foxy, rdrivera, or Damo:

What are you guys thinking about those three D3 EMC voters?

Also, what is your take on an EMC lynch? I feel like he's town, because I just felt like all the late switches yesterday seemed meaningful. It really felt like there were people with an agenda swapping votes, as they were swapping with apparent determination despite the fact that there were two low posters without much in thread to evaluate at the time. Like, I felt pretty meh about both, and I would have expected most townies to feel that way too. All the late action felt like TvS.

On the other hand, it would be excellent info to see his alignment right now. I get that too.

[rdrivera2005]

If EMC gets lynched, I won't be ranting to the God thread about how bad the town is because I understand that one.

I think I'll stay on Rdrivera though.

1. Switched off Bob (scum) onto EMC eod 3. Did it in a sneaky way by voting someone else between the switch for a small time. No matter how much someone can smoothtalk it, it looks bad on paper.

2. One of the only players (others being Fox and EMC) to never try to engage with or interact with Bob. Scum partners usually try to avoid contact to avoid associative tells or awkward scum vs. scum interaction.

3. I'm always looking for towntells in people, and since day 1, he's had no thoughts that I see more likely coming from a clueless townie perspective. Call this one gut.

4. I've struggled following his thought patterns all game, and seeing a logical progression that town would have. (For example, saying that at least two scum probably bussed Bob, but we should lynch on the EMC wagon - even though there are only 2 buddies in the know) If he was town, I'd feel like he'd realize stuff like this before being pointed out.

5. He'll say stuff and go back on them when convenient for reasons that seem weak to me.

Flum, I saw you are not voting me anymore, but I think I should adress this post like I said I will.

1 - True, but it wasn't a sneaky way. I told Bunny I will vote you if he did and I said I scumread both EMC and BOB and my OMGUSing on EMC was stronger then the read on BOB.

2 - I really don´t keep a list of which people I engage or not but I believe you. I usually engage with things or thoughts I find odd or interesting and Sulit/Bob didn´t give much of it.

3 - What is a "clueless townie perspective"? I think I have been really townie on my apporach to the game, just can´t answer to "gut".

4 - I didn't said 2 scum bussed Bob. I said I think it´s unlikely no scum bussed him, considering the site meta and that one or two scum were probably on Bob. I made a mistake not considering one scum didn´t know Bob alignment and then corrected my thought to say that 1 scum on each wagon is most likely and the Traitor in any.

5 - I say what I am thinking at the moment I post and I change my thoughts when things change, how is it scummy?

Are you not counting Rdrivera?

I have no reason to disbelieve this.
