Hmm, very interesting that there are quite a few people asking me about my last minute vote on bronx, even though Sawneeks already asked me that at the start of the day and I responded. Curious if they just missed that, or if there is scum in there trying to push this line of thought to see if it could catch on towards a mislynch on me. I especially found this post from melon a bit weird:
Ok. Enough with thus bacon business, I don't understand your ways, blarg.
Yes. Last minute Roy vote seemed unnecessary and definitely stood out to me as bandwagoning. You cannot use the excuse he just wanted a vote on record, several people opted out of voting on D1.
A) it wasn't unnecessary at all. The votes were very close, and both a tie or a sophia lynch were real possibilities. And out of those three options, a Bronx lynch seemed like the best one to me, at least that one would remove someone that was very hard to read because of inactivity and would probably just have been a point of discussion during later days (Sure, we now know that wouldn't have been the case since he could reveal himself, but there was no way to know that).
B) Then she proceeds to take on an argument that nobody made for some reason. This makes even less sense since I had an active vote on dusk soldier before my switch, and actively argued that I thought he was the most scummy. So why would I potentially use the excuse that I voted on bronx to have a vote on record....while I already had a vote on record? I don't get what melon is trying to say here.
Talking about Dusk:
I think this is the first game I played that didn't do day start/ends at 5pm EST. Completely missed day's end because of that.
Some thoughts so far...
Bronx man had the power to save himself the whole time, (although it was pretty close to the deadline when his ability activated.) and he didn't even bother trying to use it to save himself. And he spent the whole Day Phase MIA, kind of feel like he made his bed there.
Barrylocke's win condition was obscured but I'm guessing only because he died on N1.
I'm guessing it's a cult like ability with the goal to capture 6 mons, although that sounds crazy difficult so maybe just three instead. I wonder if it's an arson-like ability. Actually it probably is.
As for the votes yesterday. Ynnek7's stands out the most. The first two votes on him were prod votes cast due to Bronx's inactivity. He still had a vote left on him the beggining of the final day, and Ynnek7's vote:
Kind of reads to me like he's was strategically trying to start a bandwagon. It just the fact that to me, it reads like he had no real intention of coming back to thread after posting this.That gives me a scum vibe.
Another interesting vote on this is roy's buzzer beater vote. Like he was trying to make sure that Sophia didn't get lynched. Just another thing to look at if one of the two flip scum.
Another Dusk post I don't like. First of all he ignores my question to him about his pokemon read list and his vote on Fire and if that was just fluff/joke or serious. Then some really open doors (Bronx could have saved himself, Redacted stuff is because Barry died N1, my buzzer vote was to prevent a Sophia lynch, no shit to all of these), some baseless speculation (it probably is an arsonist ability? Where does he get that from?). Only the Ynnek7 part has real value.
Hmmm, I'm unsure if you have said anything on him or not but what are your thoughts on Blarg? Actually, thoughts on all the Bronx voters as well would be wonderful. Who do you plan to focus on for Day 2?
I really don't feel good about Blarg this game, and not just the normal "Blarg is crazy and useless" feeling you always get with Blarg, or the fact that he managed to find a non cute Rowlet picture. His posts felt even less linked with the game as normal, and his fluff based attack on sophia at the end of day 1 was incredibly weak. And now he jumps on the "Roy buzzer vote questioning". He is probably my second strongest scum read right behind Dusk.
I already explained that I think sophia her power is likely town. I have to look closer to stanley, ynnek7 and splinter. Being busy with work means I have little time to actually look back at people, even though I can keep up with the thread itself.
So do you think she could be a trainer? Maybe a neutral? Her being neutral is an idea I had but only because I can't seem to put her in either the town or mafia camp.
I find her being a neutral the least likely option. For a neutral, survival is super important, since it are the only people where dying means losing directly (unless there are tanners....please don't let there be tanners). And since a double voter is very dangerous for scum, it doesn't make a lot of sense for a neutral to put themselves in danger of getting NK like this.
And he can recruit people to his team, but those will both get the Gaga alignment AND their original alignment? Weird stuff all around.
