BREXIT MAFIA PHASE 2 | Border-Line Insanity!

1. IRL reasons are valid, I even gave Grizzly and AB a pass for it.
2. You have spent plenty of time posting, even going back and forth to paraphrase your chat with Fanto. Hell you could have given post numbers and I'd have gone back and looked for them instead of doing a search for you through the thread like I ended up doing so I could quote them. Post numbers would have been enough for me to go fetch them. (and you've done post numbers already when pointing out stuff so it's not unusual for you to do that and I'd have understood)
3. Voting records are valid reasons to scum read people. It's also perfectly valid
4. Right now I want Panda lynched more than you unless he posts something to change my mind so I'm in no way desperate.
I used that as an example of why he wouldn't be able to say "My vote wouldn't really have mattered" as his vote ended up not mattering anyway. If he had voted for Grizz, he'd have made him a possibility to get lynched even more so.
His vote absolutely could have mattered is what I'm saying, so there is no "My vote wouldn't have mattered" excuse as his vote ended up not mattering anyway.
Sorry if that is badly explained, it makes sense in my head though >.<
Yeah, don't think about it, it's a claim that can't be proven anyway. so ignore it.
Side note: interesting typo haha. "Stu a rat" lol
Upset, angry. Decided what the fuck and said it.
Inpulsive posting basically.
I have a very limited read on Kalor right now. He is someone I need to go and read over.
I agree that Faddy's early vote looks suspect too. One thing that stuck out was him potentially bringing up Gorlak a few times early on (post 308 and post 314), but looking at the vote count he never actually voted for Gorlak, so I'm re-reading to find out why.
Dumb gambit. Less dumb than all of your gambits so far though.
Is Faddy prone to bussing early on as scum?
It's just his early vote feels justified but the share he throws at others later on as pointed out already makes me question keeping his vote on ET for the whole day.
If he's been an early busser before, it's possible this is the same thing but I don't actually think I've seen him as scum before?

In my defense I had a slight scum lean on Zeke going into today. Him posting fanto's reads moved him into town lean for me though.
Don't boss me around, thanks. :p
Looks like Kalor's initial vote for ET was when ET had a lead, which is a fairly safe spot for scum to jump onto. You can say you were on the vote, and claim it was because one's personal choice wasn't happening.
Has anyone ever seen Faddy as scum? I can't say I have either, so I only have town Faddy to go off.
true but it's good to keep in mind previous games. I mean meta is meta. We are all guilty of that really.
I just don't know if Faddy has form or not for this which is why I was curious. Too tired to actually go through all his posts just now so was just looking at the vote post of his and I was curious.
His first vote on ET is potential bus. He then later moved to CS in a very oppoturnistic manner, only to retract it almost instantly.
Even in politics, you learn not to bite the hand that feeds. Just ask Donald Trump!
Since we're talking about Kalor atm, I'll repost my own thoughts from my read list:
His vote was very suspicious though and I am leaning towards thinking he as scum messed up when he 'changed his mind' about voting for CS when he switched back to ET.
Might be wrong but I am leaning scum on him atm.

I think it is likely Zeke is telling the truth regarding the chat happening, but in itself it isnt an alignment indicative, he would inform us as both town/scum to not anger the third party. I think
I don't think either Zeke or Stu are scum, I am quite nullish on them right now. Maybe leaning a little town on Stu because his wrath feels genuine.
Kalor said he was wary of ET and Stu on his first serious post, never mentioned him again until his ET vote, votes Bear without mentioning ET , even though he was one of the leading wagons, the weird switch situation
I would vote for Sophia or Donna too but I think he is a better candidate right now
I want to read other less active players, I am quite nullish on them too
VOTE:Kalor

The bold is my update.
Tempted to put Grizz in town rather than lean town because I feel good about them even more now but I hesitate because I know he can be pretty good when on scum team. But at the same time, he's had some breakdowns (like Marvel) when he was scum.
idk, maybe I'll move him to town later on today. We'll see how the day progresses.
Got a question for you, Faddy.
Here you say you weren't 100% committed to your ET vote, but you didn't vote Gorlak early on despite saying that you weren't town reading him. Why was that?
Also, what's your current opinion on Gorlak? I couldn't quite figure out how you felt about him from your later posts.

I'd still consider Stuart. The defensiveness, and what I think are insincere arguments, continuing into today is still rubbing me the wrong way.
Grizzly's comments about Faddy also caused me to raise an eyebrow. It certainly looks like he was hesitant to move off ET because of the optics of jumping off of the leading lynch.
I also did not like this vote because it's justification seems off. By this point CS had gotten near ET but had never been in the lead or tied. Might have been scum trying to create a false narrative about CS.
I am of the opinion that CS is probably town. CS seems like a wildcard but even then I don't see why he'd pull that stunt when his scum partner is the leading lynch. If we had lynched CS mostly for his shenanigans and he turns up scum, that doesn't necessarily make town take ET off the chopping block the next day unless ET starts D2 off really strong.
That supposedly Fanto's readlist Zeke posted mentioned Melon's #880 post
This was after my vote and minutes before Bdubs'
Why exactly didn't you vote for ET again melonrabbit ?
What was all that #hubris bussines about? I am missing some meta here? nin

Some things about Kalor that really bother me. He threw shade at ET near the start of the game.
But later when he voted for Grizzly, there was no mention of ET at all. What happened there?
Also of note is that when the vote was between ET and Grizzly, he said this...
It was only after ET had a noticeable lead that Kalor jumped onto the vote
However, he did apparently intend at one point to vote Coolest, changed his mind, but accidentally sent it out anyhow.
Hmm...

As I said I didn't feel that strongly either way between grizzly and ET and CS' overall performance seemed suspect.
Hubris is deepest meta.
Splints went for a hammer on scum!Blarg and Blarg was a bomb and they both went boom and town lost. This was Pokemon or maybe Overwatch. idk. Happened and I laughed so hard even if hubris cost us the game.
There's your daily meta lesson. Lemme check up on things over dinner.
1. [m] Grizzly - GMT+2 : happy we kept him around. Liked how he tried to look back at things. WI do the same later on. Better feeling on him than yesterday.
3. [m] Kalor - GMT
A pretty torn view on him. At the beginning I was not feeling him but then started to feel him. Currently not sure how to feel about him. If we go by voting records and his fli flopping at the day end it does not look good. Will give him the benefit of the doubt
4. [m] turmoil7 - GMT-3
Liked him day one even though he was not one of the most active players. Hopefully my hermano will do some more work today. Null on him
5. [f] Sophia - EST
We love each other deep inside that's what she can't stand. The love runs deep. Otherwise I liked that she pushed back against me yesterday. She challenged me while others just relaxed.
Still, while I do love her something feels off. This could be her playstyle that just does not sit well with me. Will keep an eye for her but will also give her the benefit of the doubt. No vote for me today my love.
6. [m] Stuart444 - GMT
This guy. He kept me awake longer than I wanted to. His meltdown felt genuine. He likes me, that's why he emulated my vanilla town claim, learn from the best my friend. In all seriousness though at the day start I had him higher up my scum list than I currently have. The passion and aggression he btang to the table showed me that he can't be scum. If he is indeed scum. Lynch me.
Will do the rest of the players after breakfast :)

Love is over when you claim vanilla at the start of a game, dear.
What do you think of me? I think you did some. Good post on day one but kept your head low. Probably a pr role. So I would not claim and try to lay low.
Now for you
Good morning
During the last hours of D1 I was busy irl. With CS's antics I would've probably landed there, look at it, it's a complete shitshow once he comes in.
The way how the votes evolved make me think it was a town vs scum lynch though. I think Faddy mentioned it today. There is no way scum!CS would come in & cause havoc only to save goon ET.
I took a bit of time to look into Grizzly 's history and I have to rescind my scum read from yesterday. Pop mafia was the game I was going by the heaviest. There he was inactive scum and the bill seemed to fit, but often enough he was inactive town afterwards and not involved. He even dropped out a few times. The last games he was scum, he was very active though. So putting meta aside, I'll look at what he does this game. The rechecking EoD could be busywork to remove that inactivity stench, he does bring up some interesting points though. I'll see further down the line what to make of it.

Reading EoD makes me wary of a few people. nin with that late bad vote. Stuart444 being the most involved in questioning people on why they vote ET.
The one given me the most headache is Sophia though.
Vote: Sophia
I've tried to ISO her and she had 1 interaction with ET at the beginning, calling ET to give actual thoughts. She never got back to him. There was one post, I have to look it up again, where she in response to someone else mentions ET could be suspicious, which was way into the day, when a lynch was possible (*afair). After that she only ever comes back on the topic EoD. The voting looks odd.
Let me get that quote.

That's the quote and only time Sophia gives an actual opinion on ET. The context looked random. It's in response to Z-Beat, who talked with Fantomas. She wasn't involved there at the time.
However, it does not look like it was around the time when ET lynch looked possible though, like I thought. It was post #547, 20 hours before EoD, when a couple of people had 2 votes?
So far we've got EzekelRAGE with a night chat claim and Stuart with a vanilla claim.
The read list Zeke gave, looks like Fantomas writing. I believe that they shared a night chat, but that's NAI. I do feel better about Zeke as of now though, because of his general attitude this day. What caught my attention was Fantomas' read on melon. Investigation will follow.
I don't know what to make of Stuart444. Somewhere he pushed me and said we've played a few times were I was town when in fact, according to the game player data, it was one game, which was a bit on the unique side (marvel).
I can see his behaviour at EoD as a two way street. Either scum blatantly trying to convince people to get off of ET or a town player genuinely baffled. Either way he created discussion and motion. He did get CS back into the race when there were only two votes on CS (#960). With votes following from Z-Beat, Sophia and AB on the same page.
As of now I'd lean more on the scummy side. I do not understand what he did today or why he claimed. I'll give it a reread.

I am, but I'm going to bed... in a minute or two hopefully. :P
Who is eating breakfast for 2 hours straight?
A king has to feast my fellow peon
I should learn to read and not bring up old stuff. Mhm, only two hours ago...
Eeeh, that reads like a cop out.
