Ok I've had a lovely couple of hours but my friend decided not to spend the night so I'm here. Can't guarantee being online right up to EoD but you've got me for now. I haven't read anything since my last post.

I see from the bot that Vecna has replaced Foxcastle. Welcome Vecna. I scumread your slot. Any comments on what I said about Fox?

Any quick questions or points for me?

Is Ghug scumreading me yet?

Ghug, is the reason you don't want to kill Durga today because you don't scum read her, or because she's a common N1 scumkill?

She's pretty null for me right now. She gets a day too.

Does Vecna know he's in the game?
He doesn't appear to have posted.

What an odd question Flum. Durga isn't a common N1 scumkill and of course there are other reasons why he might not want to kill her.

i hate that foxcastle replaced out

is it bad etiquette to be kind of sus about the timing of it

i guess you have to take people at their word
He would be telling the truth about needing to replace out.
That said, he was sus for other reasons. Vecna is a pretty big player who often obvtowns and gets nightkilled I think it's probably worth letting him have a chance at least. (He sounds like he's busier than usual so maybe not though lol)

She was last time N1 at least, and she's often nightkilled for being strong town.
There might be but there wasn't. It was the former :P

I don't scumread several people who missed the list, like goldie.

i think damo and tfb are good choices for today. tbh i can never really read damo but he hasn't done his usual math bs yet and keeps asserting that flum needs to die and i can't follow any reasoning behind why.

tfb feels more reactive than usual. something about him following jamie on his bizarre logic is irking me - like sure jamie is right but that doesn't make flum scummy and i expect tfb to get that

@celaph: Can you explain your reasoning when you questioned why I wasn't sus of you in place of TFB and damo?
You had made a comment about your intentions behind the post saying that you wanted to get a conversation started and saw Damo as someone under the radar. I want to know why in particular you chose Damo as the person to name who was under the radar. If it's just the fact that he had 4 posts at the time, why not include me while I'm sitting at 8?
Ok, that is a fair question, given the working unknowns.

At this point I am pretty sure said data is horseshit so what the hell.

So I did a drunken lazy internet math last night, going for an average and expecting a pretty normalized curve I took each player's rankng on number of posts, and subtracted their ranking in words per post. I expected a curve from deep negative (High post low content per) to high positive (Low post, high contnt per). It mostly lined up BUT I hit two outliers.

This was based on what I did last night, so it's all very likely much different now. I was hesitant to say anything, because the moment you find a useful tool, and publish a useful tool (If by some unholy miracle I was right and it did mean something), then scum immediately changes the cadence and renders it shit.

Anyway, here's w/e through like 11p EST last night

I don't like that Rivera is still on no-kill especially after finding reasons to agree with multiple people's scumreads (especially the flum one is bothering me).

I feel like town!Chaqa would care more. He apparently hated the boatman wagon but has done nothing to counter it and I don't know who he actually scumreads, if anyone.

HR not commenting on the boatman wagon that he started but hinting he'd move to Donny is kind of yucky.

You've played enough games with Flum to know that he would do something like this as either alignment

Also I just looked at this again and realized that there is a 99% chance I fucked up on TFB. I thon't think he can be a 10 from 5th in posts.

What math should damo be doing D1 of a pretty vanilla game? Asserting people need to die without stating clear reasons is peak damo.

The more I think about the Flum thing the more weird his floundering reaction to that pressure seems.
