[bozotheclown]

snowy, don't you normally dislike when people settle on to some idea like this early on in this way?

bozo, what is the basis of this team?

At the time I posted that, their posts seemed the most likely to be motivated by wanting to look active.

Do you think anything changed since?

They all have more posts and nothing stands out as making them any more suspicious.

Looking at your iso you later given the quote below with regards to the justification for your original list. Has your perception of me (or anyone on your list for that matter) changed since you made the list? If so, why are you voting for me? And if not, why did you qualify your later post by saying that "at the time I posted".

At the time I posted that, their posts seemed the most likely to be motivated by wanting to look active.

No one else has done anything to move up on my list, so I am going with my initial impressions for now.

[damo666]

Having read what Celaph has posted overnight (ukwise) I remove him from my pool of 4 potential candidates.

Bo's recent posts do nothing to take him off the list so my vote remains there but can vote worcej or food.

Caveat: If I am in danger myself I will ofc self save even if that means voting a townread if necessary. So, my voters (snowy and Def Leppard) consider this: not only are you voting for a townsperson but you may inadvertently cause the death of a different townsperson, one you may even townread yourself. So I suggest you move.

PS There is 11.5 hours to go so expect lots of change and not overly worried.

PPS Vote for Bo worcej or Food.

i don't like sqoogs (1)

historically this means i scumread people (2)

rn i kinda scum sqoogs (3)

not sure if 2 is causing 3 or if there's something legit there

What does 2 mean?

two means i have a pattern of scumreading people I dislike

Historically, he's scumread people he dislikes.

i'm going to give ghug +1 for reading comprehension

@sabi - were there any specific interactions you were thinking about that could've been SvS when you asked that?

No, I was genuinely wondering since in Eden post about how role pms look like it seems like scum didn't know who their teammates were till quick topic. Maybe it was just obvious to everyone else and I took what he said an example on looks like at face value.

Look at the reactions to my question, there was no s vs s stuff just is Sabi faking/being real about their townslip. After 2.2 games with me you guys should realize I can't play 4D chess by fake townslipping. I'm still the dumb Sabi but just more engaged and annoying with questions and lots of posts.

tbc, I was wondering if the knowledge that mafia know their teammates changes how you view any interactions that have happened (e.g. what interactions could've been between two scum teammates?) I think I buy the second point though

So I was thinking about this last night. After much thought, I dunno if I feel like scum have protected their own so far this game. At least so far outside of meta reasons. Nothing really stood out as odd to me. Did you feel like their was any interactions that came off that way?

[BesharamSabi]

Hi celaph,

How was school? I'm glad you are back to posting. I have a few questions for you since I want to gauge your thought process.

What reads have you agreed with so far and why?

Who do you think is the weakest player so far and why?

What are your thoughts about lurkers and low effort posters jn the game? Are they pro or anti town?

Why are you the last to cast your first vote?

Anyway hope the rest of your night goes well. I will be waiting for these answers.

Thank you : )

I agree that you're the towniest given the way that your effort has come off and the way you've asked approached asking questions. It feels genuine, someone who wants to do well, though isn't necessarily aware of the best way to do that.

In terms of weakest play I have to say bozo for the sheer lack of content and explanations. I also haven't really been a fan of Snowy as I commented to Squigs.

Lurkers are obviously anti-town. They also don't tend to make great D1 kills because of how little info they give. Though I also don't feel like there are as many lurkers as I've seen in previous games so I am not particularly worried about it.

A combination of greater focus on townreads and that I don't tend to joke vote people.

Loved to see that you have responded to me and that you engaged the game a bit more while I was gone.

Could you explain what would be the best way? What part of my strategy isn't efficient or effective? I would like to improve so feedback is greatly appreciated.

Who have you town read so far? Who has been the weakest town read yet?

Thank you!

Good morning everyone, got less than 12 hours for day one. Hopefully we learn some new things. Happy to see bozo and damo have stopped lurking and started posting while I was asleep. Need to take a deeper look at their post but asking them questions is useless since they rarely if ever respond.

What did you all feel like you learned from celaph, damo, bozo, and bo recent activity?

Why is worcej still low activity?

Sidenote I have more post this game than my last game so that's funny.

Worcej is kinda under-the-radar in this game.

I have some tinglings of suspicion.

Let's see what ##Vote Worcej produces.

B-Sabi, join me?

I also wonder if his low activity is scum related or due to being overwhelmed with the baby. But if he's busy with the baby then why join the mini game? Is worcej usually this low activity in day one? Like game 70 he wasn't like this. I dunno maybe I should stop giving him the benefit of the doubt.

Anyway yea I will join the worcej wagon. ##vote WorcesterSauce

Riffing off what Jamie caught above, bozo is stale. Stale bozo is very likely scum, as bozo is usually making a number of plays to develop scum-catching frameworks when town.

In the below quote bozo seems to begin a push but never follows it up, as I’d expect town!bozo to do.

It was an accident but you would be stupid to believe that so why should I bother

I see I see.

Why do you keep thinking Squigs is bussing celaph?

What reads have you read so far that you agree with?

Who do you think has been the weakest player so far?

Hope that was not a lot of questions. I just want to gauge your thoughts on the game itself and not your vague one liners.

If bo_sox thinks that, why isn't he voting for Squigs or celaph?

I was wondering for a while if a pure vanilla game was tamping down bozo’s enthusiasm but I think the random trio without much reasoning and then just kind of sitting on it may be a red flag for bozo.

[foodcoats]

My early prediction of the scum team is celaph/damo/Squigs (and ghug if there are 4 scum).

Also seems bozo very formally addresses the possibility of 4 scum, like he knows there are 3, caught on that town is unsure, and added parenthetical possibility of a fourth to his team.

[Jamiet99uk]

I'd rather have Bozo that Worcej

Celaph, I wanted to see a competitive wagon with yours and one other thing for later.

this is kinda weird given where in the day we were. What were you hoping to get out of this / what have you gotten out of bozo and squigs staying on the wagon?

I don’t think it will bear fruit until later.

I think Squigs came onto celaph in a funny way. “Don’t want to be buddied” into “scum” is the narrative. But I think I’ve only played with Squigs when he was scum and I think Bona has a very good ability to catch suspicious interpersonal interactions and as such I currently believe Squigs scum>Rand, so I have to be cautious not to see what’s not there in his celaph vote. Hence I pushed the wagon.

Bozo looked off and continues to
