    It's all good, I'm glad you did it the way you did it, I'm just sorry it took your flip for me to be convinced in the end. I had my reservations through that point, and you were probably the weakest lynch that I supported in the game.

    I also cannot believe that I survived and that we lynched correctly at last. I was preparing for another town flip haha.

    When I died I guessed you were scum.

    So probably not.

    By unbiased I meant, for maximum entertainment value.

    I guess part of it Waco was that von was like a very obvious anomaly to me, he was very different and I strongly agreed with Jan that it seemed like he was faking his early game fluff. But I come into the game and see that he's got several reasons down for why he's not active in the game and I know I am subbing into a slot that also doesn't have many posts, also has excuses to not be around, and I am town sooooo how the hell is the consensus wagon the mafia and I have 0 votes...?

    It's really bad but I would be lying if I said that wasn't a bit of a factor in deciding to kinda avoid the von wagon immediately upon replacing in. So if I am kinda assuming von is town I'm looking for worlds of 2 that never exist and am just inherently forcing it unnaturally.

    Also I thought I would be under immense pressure if I voted von and he was town so I thought it was best to just project town and contrarian reads can often accomplish that if you just feign a lot of confidence, so that was how I came out posting finally about you and rubicon.

    But lemme still see if I can find that damn quote that pinged me.

    Sorry Quiddity, you probably can't see this either, but I probably wasn't in the right mood to play this game.

    Your ratio of defense vs scumhunting. Too much defense will always get you lynched. (This is also probably the reason I wasn't lynched this game.)

    And this is more nebulous, but you weren't really engaged with the thread conversation or other players as much as you usually are. Even when you don't post much, you usually have more interaction. Maybe this was because of time constraints, but it made me think you were acting different.

    That said, you were actually super town for the last two hours before you were hammered. If you'd played like that for the rest of the game, I would never have voted you. By that point, I thought it was necessary in order to solve the game.

    Kinda kept up with this game, congrats to the town (and good job Vaimes and Tom regardless from what I saw skimming through)!

    Agree with all of the quoted, especially with the bolded. I was convinced you were town and actually voted the mafia after your posting got me out of my sort of tunnel or inertia read on you.

    Possibly. That might also have been the game where scum forgot two kills. In a five player game.

    OK waco: it's not great but it was largely your interactions with Lyric (I think). The way I read things is I see an interaction between two people and generally weigh one as the victor (town) and the other some degree of scummy.

    You had a lot of interactions with Lyric who was pretty pure town to me (and you also had them generally as a high townread too) but you pushed back and seemed pretty frustrated with their reads. It just read as possibly coming from a mafia trying to influence a town with a lot of pushback more than doing so to solve her alignment or otherwise.

    In retrospect it's a bad read of it for several reasons, but that was my very very very quick gut reaction upon subbing in. I just latched onto like Lyric/Quid as townreads and looked unfavorably on those pushing that sort of general direction, without really appreciating exactly what/why it was happening.

    ^That kind of series of posts, I think. They're pretty fair in retrospect. You just wanted Lyric to be reading things for the right reasons, as a town, to a town. My bad :(

    GG everyone. Glad we got it in the end.

    WP to DLGN for that last day, and font for nailing Von and having the right legacy.

    Not sure why Von surviving D1 was so impressive?


    Mostly just pleased I didn't cost us a lynch and got myself townfirmed in the end. Was on both scum, I suppose, but didn't lead either.



    Honestly, I posted a lot about it at the time,, Waco, and it was primarily attitude on the last two days.

    Heh. I'd like to claim post of the game.

    ---------- Post automerged at 07:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:25 AM ----------

    I would've straight up avoided the thread until 30 minutes before EOD and then killed tom.

    I believe.
