Hmm? It's already been pointed out.
Do you want to place a bet who reminded us of a scum aligned double voter in a previous game?

Tbh I just wanted to pretend to trust her a couple of days to see if scum will kill her. That's not happening while people keep bringing her up though.
I can't read much into her power, but it's pro town and also not a huge loss, so I'd rather make her scum's problem if possible.
Not possible, apparently ¯\_(ツ
_/¯Found it. Thanks for bringing it up Splinter.
But why o why did you never respond to it? You were one of the few people to put her on the town side because of her power. Yet here we have the prime example of gafia lore for a scum double voter. Does this not change your stance the slightest?
Nobody reacted to it, in fact I get the feeling people don't care. I know I'm tunneling right now, but the sheer ignorance concerning this topic is overwhelming.
Do you, Splinter, still town read her? Simply because of her role?

What if she's scum tho
Then her survival as a widely trusted PR would be suspicious in itself, and in the meantime she's given us a shit ton of posts to look through after her death.
This isn't an option now because we don't have that "widely trusted" part.
Honestly, her role is slightly more likely to be town than scum - but not enough to be definitive. So basically we should lynch her if we scum read her.
And as said, I can't read Sophia for shit. I hate to say that, because it sounds like such a lazy cop-out, but in Gods I literally had 3 separate green checks on Sophia and I was still trying to work out if she could somehow be scum.

Who did you investigate last Night, *Splinter?
Why do you act like Splinter's vote didn't come five minutes before the deadline?
If I were a cop, I'd've checked Sophia and got a TOWN result.
Yes, you were right. It wasn't about roy but Darryl.
Mixed it up as it was about the vote on roy and his connection to Darryl in case of an if.
Uh... double voter... not scum aligned... uhoh... hahahahaha.
Guess I was the only one really interested in that matter? Well, someone had to dig up some old game. You'll never guess what I found out.
Does anyone want to place a bet who was a scum aligned double voter in her first game?
hahaha

This post would be a whole lot more dramatic if I hadn't revealed this information myself last night.

So it likely you did one of these things.
Exactly. I think you did well mentioning it yourself. I overread it because you started the post with a horrible "they look at me, there must be scum among them" defense, which was getting repeating once or twice in other situations afterwards. That's something you wrote to prohibit any further talk about you.
You're overthinking it. Or you're scum. It's too early in the day for me to tell which. x.x;

With recruitment in this game I'm not taking anything for granted. A converted Pokemon will lean on their original role/alignment, so I'm not believing anything unless it's a flip.
On the one hand, we can let scum deal with Sophia since a double-voter is more useful for town as the game goes on. On the other hand, we can't take the risk that Gaga or TR recruits her, giving them the same boon.

Maybe if the entire scum team is active at the same time and is a hivemind, perhaps.

I don't want to tunnel, but Ferret didn't vote D1 and continues with mostly inconsequential posts in D2, including this one:
where he brings up the triangle again. To be fair, it's after Ty posts a reads list that put TG and Sophia in the scum camp, so it's partly coincidental, but it's such a safe, non-offensive question.
Let's see some reads, Ferret. We're in D2 now, anyone sticking out to you?

Stan's is a close 2nd
Hmm... of the active posters, Gorlak gives me the worst gut reads because he's tunneling me pretty hardcore, and could easily justify his reasons for it after I flip town.
Splinter I need to re-read. He says he can't read me for shit, but usually I can read him pretty well. So the fact that I can't worries me, even if I don't have any specific scum read on him right now.
Melon's asking a lot of questions this day phase, but the fact that she seems interested in why nobody followed Splinter's vote in five minute window (which is seriously not a lot of time at the end of the day phase,e specially when things are chaotic) baffles me.
This vote is just intellectually lazy. There are a multitude of reasons why scum would leave me alive on N1, not the least bit of which is the amount of heat on me right now. More then that, a double voter has little threat to them this early in the game. It is a much weaker power in the hands of town in general.
It sounds less like you have no idea, and more like you didn't care to figure it out in the first place.
Yeah, makes sense to me. Scum thrive off conversational topics that lead nowhere.
Of the three people with no vote, CM worries me less than Flush or Ferret. Flush I don't have good reeds on, Ferret I've just not played with so I'm reliant on other observations.
I'm not sure about the people on the Bronx vote right now. Hm...

roy has *Sp as his Phoenix Wright, and *Sp has diplomatic immunity, can't touch them
Stan and Ynnek are basically twins
and then there's you, Soph
We should probably lynch Gorlak, IMO

Really all I was trying to point out was that Ynnek7's reasoning for voting Bronx was that it was basically a simple prod vote.
I feel that his actions don't line up with that reasoning however because 12 hours before the deadline, he should have known that a vote on Bronx had the potential to become a bandwagon. He voted him out anyway.
Also later in the day when Bronx was in danger of being the vote leader, Y kept his vote in place. Contrast that with you or Sophia who pulled your votes on Bronx and waited untill you were sure that he was the best lynch candidat of the day before putting them back on.
At the end of the day I think that Ynnek7 is the most supicious of the players that voted for Bronx. But that doesn't really mean much this early. Just something to keep in mind.
I personally did not see Roy's post when he said that. I must have been skimming the thread at that time. So that's why his last minute vote to save Sophia stuck out to me as odd. Obviously now I missed some context there.

The pokemon read list was absolute horseshit. I really was just looking to see if people would argue against lynching any of those players. A post like this one:
would be really telling of one of these two players flipped scum.
Speaking of which, can you explain why you feel so strongly against lynching Fireblend?
Goddam people slow down a bit, I can't keep up. 5 pages in a day?
Well, let me comment on the night since its easier.
So we know Barry used to be a Pokemon Trainer, that is neat, but raises a few questions. Are there more pokemon trainers? Do the captured pokemon lose their alignment? Do they revert back to townies if their trainer dies?
Also, I think its safe to assume Team Rocket is One trainer or two trainers and a few pokemon, and probably have a recruiter, but I'll say if they do it has to be limited, maybe one shot. If this happens I recommend that, if someone gets revealed by a cop, to be careful he doesn't get cleaned just because of it since he could be recruited.
It seems to me this game is designed with "Pokemon teams" in mind. Also, if the new Lady Gaga dies tonight then its likely then the new pokemon he tried to catch becomes Lady Gaga. Man, talk about confusing.
So, all said, I think we are looking at at least 4 trainers, probably like this.
-Two town trainers
-One Neutral trainer
-One scum trainer
With the amount of player we have, its likely this is designed to capture at least 3 pokemon per team. It also sounds like once you are captured you are getting a new pm, so in that case its likely you get a new command to help your team win.

This stands out to as a complete non-answer, which I dislike. So you flipped over to Bronx because...you played roulette and it landed on his space? Come on Flush. Also, how would a melonrabbit vote cause a tie? If you said Sophia, I'd believe it.
Really? You didn't read ANY of my previous posts as weird or "particularly" fluffy? Not a single one? Not even the post I made where all it had was a picture of SEXY letters?
Pfft, I call bullshit. Now you are "having a revelations" of how my fluffiness is indicative of my scumminess and its clearly the turning point for you, looking me in a new light.
Uh, did you not read Barry's role? I don't want to quote it because mobile quoting sucks but it does say inn the pm that "you are also aligned with Team Gaga" instead of just "you are aligned/are now aligned". Barry also had two alignments, one of which was redacted, suggesting that Barry was a part of two separate teams.
...Okay, I meant in context. The discussion on mechanics already passed, usually having an opinion then isn't odd, but when it passes, I consider that fluff.
Dusk Soldier

Salva read over Barry's role pm.
The pokemon teams have their own separate alignment that's different from the regular town, neutral, scum.
So for instance you can be town, and then if your captured by pokemon trainer red, then you would be aligned with town AND aligned with red at the same time.
Still the same as it was before: I think the power is more likely to be town, so I am leaning town on Sophia. I am not in favor of a lynch of her because of that and because scum will have to kill her eventually if she really is town. That doesn't mean I am 100 % sure she is town and she did do some weird stuff (the reason to reveal her power still baffles me, giving Blarg something to talk about is more important then hiding for scum?), but for now I am against lynching her.
Can you please point to a post where I say i feel strongly against lynching Fireblend?
Dusk Soldier
Member
Roy, do you think we should lynch Fireblend today? yes or no.
I slightly scum read him since a lot of his day 1 activity was very safe imo. He isn't my preferred lynch candidate, that's you and Blarg, but I wouldn't be opposed of a Fireblend lynch.
