That was fun! Thank you Swowl and Scola for making it happen.
Why wouldn't the SK just kill gkrieg though? Do they think they need the extra kills from the vig missing to win at this point?
I think so. If gkrieg comes back dead today, and math has cleared someone else, then the other PR claims, we’d have 3 or 4 confirmed town and it would be tough to wiggle. But with math dead, we get no more info from him and now it’s just an argument about if gkrieg is lying or not. Or if the fear was that math checked her, a guilty result would been game over. Better odds there than the POE on the other scenario, right? And she wouldn’t have known she’d have been gkrieg’s target when she decided.
That all works, right? (I haven’t had coffee yet!)
I feel so understood!
Such a globetrotter Didds! Do you think the stars will ever align that we'll meet in person?

someone please grab the pulp fiction kit and jab FDS in the heart and lfg?
I am good to open another game after this one, but I would like to play one as well
It's the lack of interest at deadlines due to us not playing for a while, the plurality exile, the weekend deadline, or something else?
This is unfortunate.
We’ll be able to kill scum tomorrow, though.
Right?
Probably?
Anyway. I’m going to sleep. Might not wake up until after deadline.
Best of luck, folks.
This is the second time Eddie said this and he didn't answer my question about the first time. Then goes to sleep without changing his vote despite implying strongly that he thinks Jack is town. What's the message here?
Eddie, this is left over from Day 1. Can you respond?
Science.
Is that really the end of this conversation...?
I kinda want uncle to be SK so I can OMGUS without negative consequences, but I'm not seeing anything out of the ordinary. I mean, other than the quoted post. But when your meta is not explaining your reads...
Now I would reread joth, but I'm out of time. I might be here during deadline, or not.
Granted, Shraeye is the guy that seems to bamboozle me more than most on here, but I’d be shocked if he’s bad.
I dunno.
I’d vote for EFHW leagues before shraeye, but shraeye doesn’t want me to.
MiX, are you voting for math because you think he’s the SK or self-Pres?
Both, but he did say something that makes me reconsider. I kinda hate going back to shraeye because I think I'm only scumreading him for being shraeye. So...I don't know.
Thanks for the unvote joth.
Why the reconsider?
The PR claim, basically.

Who uses "when" for a counterfactual they know for a fact will never happen?
Didds, you're a linguist/comms professor, back me up here.
D1 his comments were snide and about my stunning lack of ability to build a case on someone despite me finding scum.Let's go line-by-line:
Today he is taking me to task for things that others think or have responded to.
He seems convinced that I am a baddie in a stubborn sort of way, so it all seems rather pointless.
Disagree on tone, content, and relevance of consequence.
Disagree on magnitude and cause.
Disagree on my mindset and the futility of words.
I think Didds level of heing and hawing has been much higher, also has been put on display on a awkward way....feels performative.
And if Didds is borrowing the metric of scumShraeye is shraeye-lite, it really feels like this is didds-lite. I was thinking about that before Didds came in with her analysis on her wagon.Hmmm.... I was looking at the people voting for me...And wow. The amount of effort/substance staggered me.
This really doesn't compute. If Eddie/Joth are the folks most instrumental in exiling Jack, you can be HAPPY with their actions (I am) but in terms of whether their actions make them GoodPeople...their actions really just means "They are very much not Jack's partner." Which means they are either SK or Town, each having equal incentive/happiness at exiling a Goon on Day1.
The only world where Jack's partner is somehow still alive is when it is gkreig going crrrrazy with a gambit. So, you're saying "I am sure Eddie/joth are on my team because they are not Jack's partner....really doesn't compute with the statements you made here"
shraeye do you suspect Didds of being the SK, or are you just telling her she's wrong?
