BREXIT MAFIA PHASE 2 | Border-Line Insanity!
- Thread starter cabot
- Start date
It was not about the number of scum [which I remember you assumed to be low (4 instead of my 5 assumption) early in the game]?
Hold up now I'm in conspirancy mode. How likely would it be to have a 6 player scum team?
I have to admit, I am somewhat surprised that there's been such a consensus towards the info flip on L_P. Yesterday did seem unusually slow to me for a Monday, though - I suspect that if scum had been planning to set up an alternative train to try and split the vote, they would have had a tricky time doing it without it looking too obvious.
That does seem excessive to me, especially with a neutral in play to boot. Mind you, if there were that many, somehow, that would make Faddy's elimination seem more likely to be a bus - I think that's veering into tinfoil hat territory, though.
But... [I don't know if I'm serious here, hear me out] what if?
21 with 6 vs 1 vs 14? (The third faction could go up to 3, maybe one from both sides?)
6/21 is about 28% - high, but maybe a weak team? Goon and 1-shot extra ninja kill.
We were at 17 - presumably 4v13 but with 5 left we have the following:
5v12 // 5v9 (if extra nk used) // and we are in lylo with 5v7
This would match turmoil's statement.
At least it's something to look into when further scum flip and we have a better feeling of the setup.
Scum isn't going to start another wagon to save scum after yesterday. Although this one on me could be an attempt at one. If LP flips scum, I think the reamaining scum team was trying to distance themselves from him
From Grizzly's role pm:
1. If he had anyone, they would have died as well.
2. Only one can be recruited at once anyway.
There was considerably more movement during D1 and obviously an effort was made to save ET. While here it feels more similar to D2 with everyone agreeing more or less on GP and Kalor.
(Mind you LP has done nothing to sway me away from him, and maybe the snark isn't helping him)
Right now? Maybe Malus, but I'm still leaning towards Turmoil and DC being the rest of the scum team. I think what Turmoil is doing makes sense as a scum play. Just read him as scum, but vote someone else and hope that takes off
Since most of my thoughts on TheChuggernaut center around his own posts and Faddy (who is dead), who else does his flip make you want to look at?
Who would you go for if LP flips scum? Turmoil or DC?
Stu, I've been pretty patient with you, but now that I've made my case with a reads list, you don't even acknowledge it and continue down this path. I guess your "I can be swayed" talk was just that: talk.
Your arguments basically hinge on two things:
1. The reads of a neutral.
2. Low activity from a low activity poster.
1.
If someone reads me as scum and I'm not, I'm going to say so. How is that downplaying.
Not to mention that Grizzly is a neutral survivor. I've been a neutral. You play with town at first, but if they get out ahead you have to flip back to helping scum. You can't believe anything from a neutral as they will obfuscate and deflect. Getting one scum from his reads is already a win.
This is actually the first time in days I've had enough free time to dedicate to this game. Does it look like a last-ditch attempt to save myself? Sure, you can call it that if you want. But try being dropped into a game where you're already having to defend yourself based on your predecessor's actions, along with the usual meta baggage.
Anyway, that's that. I'll be around until the end of the day.
And I see no point in claiming. Either I'm a PR and I just get NK'ed by scum, or I'm vanilla and town will just shrug and move on.

Both. I feel more strongly about Turmoil, but I would hop on a DC wagon if that was the one that took off. The order doesn't really matter to me at that point
Honestly, saw donna and sophia as close despite sophias claim of no defence. If lp flips scum, next person to look at would be chugs
You signed up to be a replacement. It's on you to deal with the actions of your predecessor.
you're not claiming because you don't have a good enough fake claim that can be backed up I'm guessing.
You don't need to tell me what Sophia did. I pushed her two days and reread her today. Did you ever comment on the interactions between Faddy and Sophia?
Sophia being the one to continue Grizzly's lead on Faddy?
Hm.
unvote
Turmoil was actually my next choice, so seeing TheChuggernaut scum reading him is giving me second thoughts.
Also, TheChuggernaut, your name is now the first autosuggest in my phone when I type 'the'. XD

Scum is obviously comfortable with me dying, and town doesn't feel like they have to do anything drastic since we're ahead.
My reads are out there so I've done all I can.
Good luck.

I don't choose who I replace? I could've replaced a coaster and just continued coasting.
Scum have fake claims. I don't.
I have actually commented on interactions between them:
#2995 highlights a particularly interesting interaction actually..
Just something to think about.
Okay, you read it as trying to distance herself from him without committing to it. Possible, but still I can't get behind why she'd discuss this with Faddy in thread - without ever receding her doubt or giving a "well it was probably nothing" when Grizzly was (probably) killed over it.
Well she isn't here to ask now.
We're in a good position, we can afford to go this route.
WHY CAN'T YOU AT LEAST PRETEND THERE IS A POSSIBILITY FOR SCUM TO SAVE LP??
youre right, sorry, but you took your vote off them before nin revoted them.
I think his votes are just wacky.
I'll be honest, I can't see scum or town nin doing it.
I'm just kinda ignoring it now. if he's alive in a day or two, I'll be happy to lynch him but I've got my order of preferences just now.
LP -> DC -> Nin probably.
Mind you, while malus is on the LP lynch, if LP flips town, I'd probably put Malus on par with DC. Dubs felt towny but malus isn't making me feel good for some reason.
Of course if LP is scum, I don't think malus as scum would bus him after losing scum Faddy.
Srsly, you are around, you said so. Can you give us reads based on the entirety of the game?
I could see scum nin being demotivated here and flatlining in activity.
This is kinda funny given how the game started, but also true. He's content being on the sideline now.
