You think Ghug, Flum, Bona is the team, right?

I think each of them has a high likelihood of being mafia. I don't feel so confident to say that I'm right on all three.

Tell you what then, let's ##Vote Fluminator

I'm fine with that.

##Vote Flum

when you remove any form of nka from your game you replace it with guesswork, uninformed guesswork rooted in zilch/nothing and you make night phases a wifom excercise that serves no hunting purpose at all.
the nights may as well just be silent too if thats the case.

you. are. engaging. in. guesswork. and. calling. it. nka.

this is so frustrating. I wish I could just call you scum and ignore it

Allow me to translate:

Brainbomb is conducting role play.

He has observations of fact.

He has theories.

He is then combining them via role play to see how they feel.

He is also observing how people engage with his role play.

But he is not stating he believes any of it necessarily. He’s acting it out.

Thats actually a really fair way of saying it. yes. im using my acting degree. nice

[BunnyGo]

okay ignore all the nightkill talk
ignore all riveras reads

why is bozo town as of this point in gamestate

Brainbomb: Vote Jamie

Jamie: Why am I scum?

Brainbomb: Let's talk about Eden! Let's talk about methodology!

Jamie: But why am I scum tho?

Brainbomb: Let's talk about Bozo's alignment!

Jamie: . . .

Leaving doc office now. Seee you in 8+ hours!

[ghug]

Your read on Damo and I is really lazy. What was unimpressive about our EOD compared to our first 24 hours? Why was it unimpressive?

This is feeling like scum!ghug

I was irked by your ratio of +1ing to saying things, and damo was much more question asky than opinion statey.

I'm +1ing literally every post as I read them.

I do this in at least half the games we play here as a way to know where I'm at in the thread.

Yes, I understand that. There was evidence of your presence without activity in the thread. That's the issue. It's not like I'm actively scumreading you for it, but it did irk me.

well now I just feel silly

[ghug]

Think about it. Put some effort in.

I'm going to do it as well.

My thinking is that if we can find a consensus person who is suspicious *regardless* of Bozo's alignment, then we could just kill that person.

What's the point of this?

Can Bozo voters answer this survey for me?

If we flip Bozo and he is town, who would you suspect based off Day 1?

If we flip Bozo and he is scum, who would you suspect based off Day 1?

If he's scum, I think Flum is a good bet given his vote bouncing.

If he's town, I don't think it tells us that much, so I default to like Eden/Bona/Flum.

I expect you to now vote Flum.

That's the point.

Which maybe makes sense if I think Bozo's likely to be town, but I don't, so I can vote him. Or I can vote Eden, who I also think is likely to be scum regardless of bozo's alignment.

you’re just arguing for the sake of arguing

town ghug just does what you’re saying you could do here

[Bonatogether]

skimming flumigator's d1 iso

would be fine voting for him, not enthused

skimming jimmit's d1

if bongo is scum then jamie is much more likely to be scum, i don't think that goes the other way

actually i think his talking about and interacting with bongo makes him look worse

he can be my second choice of the options i've looked at (not that many)

[brainbomb]

##vote bozo

[ghug]

how tf does that scumteam make any sense.

Dislike this post.

no you don’t lol

Yes I do. You're attacking a strawman that that's exactly the team instead of the reads individually.

[Bonatogether]

i don't know how to read ghug and i doubt those who claim to be able to read him are that good but atm i think he is not towny

this is kind of business as usual for me but idk

I vote when I'm caught up. I always vote when I'm caught up. You don't believe this.

[ghug]

Oh look I'm caught up ##VOTE Eden

same

[brainbomb]

Dislike this post.

no you don’t lol

Yes I do. You're attacking a strawman that that's exactly the team instead of the reads individually.

so this type of conversation does absolutely nothing for me because it is so bantery and hollow that I cant tell if this is just how they interact or if this is scum just throwing zingers out. But I also cant tell if anything is being learned or communicated from this.
who can read this tree of back and forth and ascribe alignment based on this style of dialogue

[ghug]

I'm happy with the wagons a few hours into the day so we'll probably end up killing damo or pyxxy or some shit.

[Fluminator]

so heres the deal

I beleive very strongly that bozo is scum here. willing to stake my reputation on it and tunnel him to the end of the game if necessary. we either kill him and find out if scum was saving him yesterday or someone is going to have to get me out of this tunnel and show me why im wrong. I cant move on until I get that closure.

or you can just kill me because if all im gonna be doing is tunnel bozo im
not gonna be much help to this game.

this is how strongly I feel bozo is scum. like 9999% absolutely certain

Can you restate the case? (Yes I know I can search the bot for your posting history but I'm working and time is precious)
I didn't see anything day 1 to justify the passion, although there is one thing he's done meta-wise that stops me from completely town reading him.

[ghug]

no you don’t lol

Maybe focus on assessing the assertions being made (Eden is attacking a strawman, ghug is being dishonest) on their own merits? Eden and I are liable to be pissy with each other when there are scumreads involved regardless of alignment, I think.
