I don't need to think that. As I said, I was trying to view things from your perspective. You don't know if I'm scum or not (unless you're scum yourself)

How does this work with 1 scum dead?
Royston
Well, if you're scum, then you know everyone else is town and therefore not scum :)

Let's stop this, Royston is rather town for now, because he's trying to get out of the scum thing but can't, because you keep pressuring him.

What about Dake btw? His posts are small, asking a question, because he doesn't know what to do, probably tries to 'look' active, but actually isn't really telling anything. Dake, you've said to Royston: "Why shouldn't I vote for you", also you've asked "are you scum", he replied 'no I'm town", so now, it doesn't look like you're really scumhunting, because you've just gave up your hints, and now you've changed your scum-thoughts. What were the causes of these sudden changes? And it's pretty cool that you've asked who we are thinking is scum, what would you have done if someone said you're scum? Because I think you are.

My main scum suspects haven't changed since D1. rEdo was lynched, Royston acted quite scummy in D2, and you're still a scum suspect for me, but I didn't get something that makes me clear who of you or who else can be scum. I don't get why you vote me, are you merely basing in activity, that's a wrong way to find scum. What did change your mind about Royston, earlier and in D1 you even voted him, why the change?

aaaaaaand it seems like Saki wants to buddy Sakura ;)
Royston
Seriously though Sena, do you have your own reasons for voting me? Or are you just following Sakura?

Hey, Regfan found scum by that in a game I was at.
Amianki
I learned pretty fast that my secret list of scumslips don't apply at all on this forum. I don't really trust the same style of thinking to apply in both places very effectively.
Sakura
other than that, Royston has other things pointing to him, so i'm not basing it entirely off the scumslip.
Royston
like this?
My issue with Royston is that he had to wait until getting voted to appear.
Jinxy
I agree with Cali that calling that a scumslip is pretty weak. Royston did a similar thing in TH PYP IV where he asked me who the "remaining scum" were in D2, so I can see where his post here is coming from.

Saki is still acting the scummiest to me, especially by sheeping to Sakura, and only justifying it with the "scumslip" reason when asked without considering anything else at all.

My vote has been on you since the start of the Day.

Your posts today haven't been helpful for town at all, and your votes and reads are all over the place. You first considered Cali, then you leaned and voted Irre, then you sheeped Sakura to vote Royston with an incredibly weak justification, and now you're voting me instead of actually, you know, justifying further as to why you decided to vote Royston.

Sena's behaviour is certainly odd. inb4 reaction test.

Also weird NK considering scum could've pushed a mislynch on Jinxy since he was wrong about Saki.

Sakura, keep in mind that lynching me today will put us into LyLo tomorrow.

'us' is wrong, since you would be dead then :P

Then who should we vote Royston?

@Irre I wasn't aware that dying would magically change my alignment :P

As for who to vote for, well we have two weeks to decide. The nightkill on Jinxy is certainly interesting, I'll post my thoughts on it a little later.

It'd be nice if you explain further why are you voting me Irre.

Sorry, that was actually the hammer. I didn't even know or see that.

Final votecount for D3:

DakeDekaane (1) - Irreversible

Day 3. Irreversible was lynched. He was a Vanilla Townie.

It is now Night 3. 24 hours for things, you know the drill.

How was I supposed to know you would lynch that quickly?

Okay, I'm lost.

I'll have to reread the game again. Standby.

Rereading the game has ended in a headache.

I'm going to sleep on it and see if I get any ideas to have this game make any sense whatsoever.
Royston
I thought Irre was scum an. He wasn't. Not much more I can say than that.

Scum, pls explain why you killed Sakura? I seriously don't understand, I don't think Sakura would have held back from voting me again in this situation and you could've hammered for the easy win. But hey, whatever man..
DakeDekaane
I lol'd, if I didn't doubt Caligno, I'd be voting you right now.

You literally just made a case against yourself.

Why.
Royston
Why not? It would've been mentioned anyway
Amianki
The Sakura kill literally made no sense to me until you explained exactly why you would kill her over anyone else. That's basically what happened.

Saying things that makes you yourself look like mafia in LyLo is pretty much the exact opposite of how you should be playing it. If you thought it would have inevitably come up anyway, bringing it up faster isn't exactly protown.
DakeDekaane
The only thing I can see is a bunch of WIFOM, which scum likes to do.

Also, silly question to both of you, your reads on me.
Amianki
Your passivity is making my read of your drop rapidly.

Good luck town

I can't maintain interest anymore. Literally nothing has happened in this game for about three days.

Let's just end this one way or another. Dake deserves the win if he's scum either way.
DakeDekaane
It's sad I'm not scum, but I'm willing to give some time to Royston to explaing himself, he bringing up all those WIFOM isn't making me feel comfy. But Caligno jumping between Royston and Irre past days isn't either. I just can't find/get ideas how to solve this.
Royston
Nah I'm happy you're not scum, means I still have a chance at a 1-2 W-L :D

No hammer from Dake so we have our scum then.

vote: CalignoBot

Please don't put up that defeatist/bored attitude Caligno, I don't think it's going to help in your situation.

@Dake: Nothing else to say but what I said on D2, and that is Caligno's passive interaction with rEdo D1. Also notice how soon after I put my vote on Caligno his opinion of me mysteriously changed and I was town again. That's weird, you'd think if he was town and I was voting him I'd be more scum in his eyes?
Amianki
Now that I know who the scum is, I'm more interested in proving it.

While we're on the topic of D1 interactions with rEdo, let's point to how Royston's only interaction with rEdo was a very sleazy statement without any kind of read whatsoever at the bottom of page 17. He also manages to completely skirt talking about rEdo at all around the time the day ends.

---

As for rEdo's side, he starts defending Royston in the middle of page 15, then decides to start feinting pressure on him on page 17 where he states Irreversible is getting townpoints. Note that rEdo is basically stating that Royston is a significant scumread at the start of the paragraph... but ends by saying he's not sure enough to switch to voting Royston. This reeks of a distancing maneuver while being very careful not to further the wagon to a lynch.

And hey look, rEdo completely drops Royston at the top of page 19 and instead goes for Jinxy and Quotes. This makes the former paragraph look even more like nothing but a distance maneuver. He goes back to it at the bottom of page 19, but it's basically a backtrack. Now that there's a lot less benefit to bussing his partner, rEdo no longer wants to look suspicious of Royston. That's really about it, since the vast majority of the rest of D1 was just Quotes coming in, a huge shitstorm of like 6 pages of posts from only 3 people, and a lynch on rEdo after Quotes claimed cop.

And really, my passive interaction with rEdo is pretty much a lie. I was the first person to put pressure on rEdo at all and held him as a scumread for pretty much the entire day.
Royston
I meant to say rEdo's passive interaction with you, not the other way around

So is this a sudden realisation or what? Hell you were voting for me on page 17 before I made my sleazy(?) statement yet you seemed to make a deliberate attempt to 'forget' about me entirely later on

Two entire pages popped up while I was asleep and I'm never in a mood to catch up on that amount of posts until I've been awake for a few hours. If you're going to try to use that argument, take times into account.
Amianki
Neither of your points work.

1. I 'forgot' about you later on because those two votes were on opposite ends of Quotes' entrance into the game, which basically forced the thread into a completely different direction. If you pay attention to my posts between those two, I actually was debating with people a lot without changing my vote until that post.

2. Time arguments are going to be a lot less convincing when the whole thing was a month ago and the time stamps only include days.

But whatever, my entire point is that your only mention at all about rEdo was a very passive statement that he's close to being hammered. You didn't give any sort of thoughts about pretty much anything, instead deciding to spend two paragraphs talking about the upcoming night phase.

Scum QT

There's not a whole lot there. It was really just me posting my kills and rambling about nothing to myself for a while.

Anyway, this game makes my scum win percentage 100% when a scum was lynched day 1. It's also the first time I didn't play like total shit as scum.

I don't actually remember why exactly I went for the Lilac or Sakura kills since I didn't post them in the scum QT at all. I remember I was considering a Dake kill as well on N2, but I went with Jinxy in the end.
DakeDekaane
That L-1 on Irre in D3, the switching between Irre and Royston in D2 and your interaction with Quotes in D1, called my attention, but I ended up considering Royston due all the WIFOM he had been throwing and I thought he was scum trying to act like VI, gg :p
Amianki
Yeah, that was incredibly lucky.

I have this really weird meta where I play very similarly as both alignments, but I'm absurdly easy to read in most games. My actual alignment is pretty much always obvious by the time I've been playing the game for about 3-4 in-game days.

That would probably explain why I almost never get lynched as town...

EDIT: The fake-VI card was actually something I was prepared to pull out too if Royston put up enough of a fight. I really have to admit though, I wasn't expecting him to fight back as hard as he did at the end there. I was mentally hitting myself all through work today after I figured out a plausible explanation for rEdo to act the way he did towards me and that made me panic when I saw the game had ended when I got home.
Irreversible
.. T~T
Royston
I'm sorry.

I WON WHILE GETTING LYNCHED LIKE A RETARD

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHNHH

wp Caligno, you totally deserve the win :')
Sakura
Why did you kill me? I'm p.sure I would have voted Royston again and earned you an easy win.
Amianki
The scum QT goes into that.

TL;DR: I have no idea.
Quotes_old
Figured Caligno was mafia when it was Royston/Dake/Caligno. I don't understand the Saki lynch at all :/. I didn't read any of Day 3 so I won't speak to that. The Sakura kill surprised me.

I think I prob-towned Caligno because his playstyle reminded me of how a friend of mine plays town often, but I probably shouldn't have let me have that inherent bias. His not backing off my vote when I felt like I had done a fairly good job of coming off as town (although I had pissed off Sakura and Irreversable but that wasn't a good reason for either of them to vote for me), as well as voting me when I had been pushing rEdo probably should have made me at least a bit more skeptical.

I should have said more before dying.

Next time I should probably play nicer and not mess with people's egos. It clearly did not serve us well when people thought I was bad because I had made them mad.
