Looking at Ri's post now. There's a lot of words but almost no hard stances or strong opinions:
Some people may honestly believe their "scumreads." Some may be using them as tools for pressure, manipulation, or to conceal the true source of their information.
I don't. I don't know what's going on. Cabot could be a hardworking, prolific townie (understandably wrong in some of his conclusions), or he could be a clever scum manipulating us into lynching our friends. isaac could've been a scum laying low, trying not to attract suspicion; turns out he was just a quiet town without much to say.
I don't believe in scumreads. I believe in strategy and vote patterns, but those are tough when we've had a TvT, a neutral dogpile, and now a Tv?. I'm tempted to lynch cabot just because if he flips scum we can make some deductions based on yesterday's votes, but I don't think he's any more likely to be scum than the mean, and I think Kyan is somewhat more likely than the mean.
cabot could be anything, isaac could be anything but turned out town. Also 'lynching our friends?' That's one way to say something.
For your next point, there's more than enough from the votes to at least come up with some theories.
Neutral dogpile will have scum on it. TvT will probably have scum split across, maybe an outlier. Tv? depends on how you read the context of the switch at the very end of the day and your guess at my alignment.
like you can say you believe in patterns over reads, but to say that then say 'well actually there's nothing really useful there so far' without giving any hot takes seems a waste of everyones time.
Like even Kyan's your main vote and it just feels like 'eh, could be.' You're mentioning means and it just feels like you don't really care what happens.
If CCS pointed you at AB, it makes his decision to out himself way smarter. He can loudly proclaim his allegiance to Town while keeping mum and thus silently displaying his obedience to Scum. It's the perfect neutral play.
And now that we've seen exactly one night kill, which seems to have been directed in a Town-friendly way, and nobody's owning up to it? What else makes sense? Worst serial killer ever, another vig with a slow trigger finger, a JOAT?
Neutral speculation, not really worthwhile dwelling on this at this point.
I say we bandwagon on Kyan. Whoever's responsible for that N1 kill is vaguely Town-aligned, so presumably they'd out themselves and we can change wagons.
Well you made your case so strongly.
*tut* *tsk* eh. Whatever. Killkyanorsummit...maybe.
With added desire for role fishing.
To be clear: I was never dedicated to either wagon, but I wholeheartedly believe someone had to die. And I'm paranoid about scum pulling a last-minute tie vote, which is readily accessible in 7-to-5. Plus seeing people follow me onto cabot put me on edge: thought it could've been the scum team coming to isaac's rescue. Turns out it wasn't.
Ri'Orious: never dedicated, but loves death.
Your reason for your panic on me is odd, when you've described there was a lot of info coming from my lynch. I don't believe it personally.
Ri or Sky...
