I mean, I did talk about Saber earlier too. It's not like that vote is the only time I mentioned him as a lynch. Earlier in the day as well I said about voting him, don't think I actually moved my vote there but I'd made my intentions pretty clear.
Thought you didn't have any reads you wanted to push and that was the whole reason you were riding with me on sparkles and ultra on soul to begin with instead of pushing your own direction?
 
Pretty sure they’re just there to be collected by someone. They don’t do anything otherwise we’d probably be told what they do when we are told we have them
Thinking about it, if they were all held by scum RDK's role wouldn't make any sense. So if I believe that then I probably have to accept that they're in other people's hands. I would assume that there is a flavour angle to this, but I don't know enough to say it.

I never said I didn't have reads, I said I didn't, and don't, have all that much conviction. Also, I wasn't just riding with Ultra in regards to Soul - I thought he could be scum from my own read of him, I just said it after Ultra. In your case, the only read on Sparkles I had was that she felt different to the last game, but that wasn't enough for me to say it means she's town.

I'm not really seeing what relevance this has to what you're responding to though. I can lack conviction and also have my own thoughts lol.
 
Yeah, the one who owns this is an antagonist. So my thinking here is why block flavour claiming if Tweet has been subversive with it? I don't really see why you'd claim having the item as scum though, except for WIFOM purposes, in which case you were probably told to claim it for that reason.

Hmmmm. Think I would still lean towards lynching here.
if they r all given to scum all that tells me is saber's team doesnt have anybody who knows the flavor, which basically removes like... 1-2 players from contention

inclined to say town has some and its like the elden ring where scum gets the runes of townies they kill

that said i like the theory of them being scum only. wud fit real nice with posyer being one :garrett
 
Anything that can show me and him being partnered ofc
That's not what I said. I could find posts and construe a reason for them to be partnered, but what I actually said was that I didn't see any reason that you couldn't be partnered, as in, nothing about your posts or his struck me as something two scum mates wouldn't do together. So what you're asking me for is actually to prove a claim I haven't made.

In this context, Poyser would be Shionne, the only character who would have one that isn't scum.
 
Day 1 - VC 7
how much time we have left? id rather stick to soul. much more confident on him being scum given we just played a game with him

vote lynch soul


Vote Lynch Soulkiller

Vote aurelian

Lets get it

Vote: Aurelian

works for me, I have work to do!

vote soulkiller

I can see that.

If he’s the watcher this is on you.

Vote Soul

I'm not actually so confident on this that I'd want to lynch into his claim without giving him a night or so. Kinda surprised to see Ultra/Ekko just shrug off the claim and proceed with lynching anyway.

On the topic of Saber, I have noticed how disengaged he's been in comparison to recent town games, and like CP says, he just dropped off entirely. Even when he was here though, he felt lacking to me. Think I might just vote there

Vote: Saber

vote saber

Won’t be voting soul today

Vote lynch Emil.

vote ekko

Anyway

vote saber

Vote Lynch Saber

Yeah, sorry if this isnt helpful, but vote Sparkles

Day 1 - Vote Count 7

Ultra --- Alexis > Luka > Gad > Poyser > Soul

With 18 alive it takes 10 votes to lynch

Just noticed that Watson did her own version of VC 6 which didn't include my VC 6, the VC is all over the place, the above is just a placeholder while I sort out the ACTUAL VC, gimme a sec
 
Can you stop the cap? who conceded? you are literally mislynching here for??? no reason.
I will say I don't like the timing of this post. Feels really self conscious, and not what I would associate with a townie who has just rolled over because he doesn't want to deal with it.
 
But sure I'm not gonna hold it against you for not wanting to go Soul right away here so much as I can see an angle here where you could be scum, based on the play from both of you in relation to each other. Like I can see you feeling a bit obliged to hop on that Soul wagon while keeping your options open, and knowing that if it does come down to it he has a watcher claim to fall back on. Bits and pieces like you shrug wanting Ekko's claim, Soul not reacting to your push, etc inform this perspective
It's less so seeing a plausible angle, more inventing one, because nothing from my end would naturally lead you there, most of all my personality, which is to typically avoid taking larger gambles early.

He literally pinged me, saw it and addressed it. Has nothing to do with timing.
 
something thats bothering me is how easily soul claimed. usually hes pretty stubborn about it (as either alignment tbf)

feels like his team pressured him to do it fast given his position here. i think his team is hoping his claim will let him atleast survive day 1
 
Counterpoint: You'd prefer not bussing if possible, so that's going to be weighted into the equation if say you see Me/Ekko shouting full speed ahead. Also, while it does take your credit off the table, should go without saying you can reasonably defend yourself there. But yeah I can see how this would be a misplay if say everyone came together and decided Watcher was bullshit, just think you can reasonably anticipate that wouldn't be the case except for a few devout crazies
I don't need everyone to say it - just enough to be convincing that it falls apart. And I would also need a good fallback wagon to lean on too. So you would think I'd be really interested in pushing that, no?

There isn't a good angle here to explain my play from scum with Soul perspective Ultra. It's not sound.
 
You didn't feel the need to say anything? So you don't really care what happens? How is this a defense? That's the case!
No it means I didn't feel the need to say "oh, CP unvoted, guess he's no longer interested in pushing her, will leave it at that".
