Did we get a clear answer from Eden about how many scum are here?

If not (which is what I think, although I might have missed it)

Some folk doing math on lylo assuming one number or the other might be worth a look.
Woah Woah woah

Well what did Eden tell you was the number of scum? I'm sure he disclosed this to yiu right?

Is this a townslip? Or a fake townslip? Because it would have been told to you when you received the role pm.

Is dargo known for this meta wise @ everyone?
woah woah woah?

My understanding is that there was an unsure number given to us.
Not a townslip... why would it be?

My reason for bringing it up is that i recalled someone making math predictions, which would be difficult since we do not know how many.

Why is this offputting?
"Not a townslip" feels like a townslip.

I assumed due to being in the council the number of scum would have been disclosed to him by Eden? Even if not disclosed to the council, would Eden disclose this to dargo before he ever got replaced in the game?

At least that's my assumption but I guess I could be wrong and just clutching at straws here. So just ignore me if this is all a reach.
That is a good point, but I do not think 1000 series games are cleared.
If we did we (hopefully) never would've gotten M1017
I believe they made me tweak a perfectly reasonable mini setup once.

welcome to the game snowy :)

What's your take on the way people treated you yesterday - were there any votes on you that seemed opportunistic, or anyone shading you that weren't pushing/disagreeing with you as much as you thought they would?
Welcome to the game yourself

Spoiler for my oncoming evening lectures: why is it more scummy to be blatantly and obviously dodging all questions instead of doing so while hiding this fact? Has it occurred to anyone that scum players do not, in fact, want to be obviously scummy?

I wouldn't really say. Most of the people who went after me I'm moderately to very confident are town (Jamiet / worgorygel) and I mostly town read celaph so that just leaves bona who I'm still torn on [side note: stop saying stupid shit like "oh bona flip would give us so much info" if you think he's scum kill him and leave him if not]

I was actually more eyeing the people who were consciously avoiding scum reading me (more spoilers: ghug, though there were other names whose posts I recall but can't connect the name [yourself?]), because A) scum players know I'm town and so instead of being like "fuck snowy he scum" they have to wonder wtf is Snowy doing and the first instinct to the unknown is caution, especially as anyone who's played with me before knows I'll fuck them up if they slip even slightly sideways

But more on this later, all will be answered by this evening p sure
Except I could tell exactly what you were doing and wanted to give you a day. I thought I was fairly clear about that.

I hate to agree with Snowy, but Celaph although that was a very long post already, it could have done with a "conclusions" paragraph.
The thesis is at the top y'all.

1. The read isn't "scum ghug is apathetic" it's "scum ghug doesn't scumread his kill target".
2. He retracts his read on me somewhat since games since he established this meta belief haven't fit it as well. What follows is the investigation he did presumably before coming to this conclusion.

He's still a slight scumread for me, but I feel like the posting has been a little better since bo died (his specifically, though obviously there's general addition by subtraction there). I'd like to see what he turns his attention to next.

Why do you think today is so suppressed in activity and enthusiasm in comparison to yesterday?

Just a general question

edit: this became a whole thing

he voted me despite 'having trouble getting signal from high posters like snowy/ghug/bona in general' (his stated reason was 'it's weird that bona is gone actually'/'even when he was around yesterday he kinda just stopped progressing reads in the last few hours')

he also interacts a ton with snowy but has never put out a read on him throughout d1. In his VCA post n1, he hedges a townread ('snowy better', 'snowy has positive signal [but thing] which weakens this a little')

he also never mentions sqoogs, except tangentially.

also why make this post? it's so strange because it's 20 minutes after his previous post, which means that he's really just popping in and saying this, but why is this the thing you want to emphasize?
Basically at the point where I voted you, I had been unable to get people onto Damo and we were relatively close to EOD, so I figured I should choose between the main wagons. I figured snowy was just doing shit to get through N1 so I couldn't really read him, and I had a townread on squigs bc vibes, which led me to reread you and try to sift for signal.

snowy ("him" is bo)

Why did you find it odd that Bonatogether was "gone" at that time?
He made like a billion posts in the first half of D1 and then kinda trailed off? I think I saw he was still +1ing people so it pinged me

Unless there are some startling revelations today I will be unlikely to vote outside of Snowy / Bozo / Bona.

There's been a recent trend towards quieter weekends. Also, speaking for at least myself, I'm lacking someone I really want to tunnel on, which is usually how I spend day 2.

I'm gming vdl virtual face to face so I'm focusing on the game and watching arsenal get slaughtered by Liverpool as well as watching college football. I'm quite overly stimulated but I'm trying my best to contribute to this as I have time.

I would like more responses and questions but no one is sending me stuff to talk about. Sad face emoji.

What are you up to today snowy?

I wouldn't say it's entirely cleared up but Snowy has stated that my interpretation was not the correct interpretation of that statement. He didn't explain what his actual meaning was.

Nonetheless:

1. Snowy apparently didn't scumread Bo, yet he asked if people would be willing to vote for Bo, he joined the Bo wagon (that you started), and he expressed disappointment when, for a brief time, the Bo wagon lost traction.

2. Snowy apparently had at least a weak scumread on Bona as EoD approached, and he wanted the Bona wagon to have traction, yet when the Bona wagon became the lead wagon Snowy didn't re-join it, and instead stayed on Bo_Sox who he didn't scumread.

There's about to be a solo in this game which is a bit yikes.

what you thought of the foodcoats kill

I have talked about this here:

viewtopic.php?p=274598#p274598

The jist is I think that food was killed less for scumreading and maybe for being vocal about town reading Bona? Or maybe both?

the bo opinions/votes thing you were thinking about last night

Food also was looking deep into bo opinions and posts as well. Bo I do think we need to keep putting pressure on Squigs. Maybe Squigs would be a good flip kill but also we can't afford a miskills atm either.

Ugh this is very confusing.

What are your thoughts on food kill possible motives? What about killing Squigs for info?
