Definitely don't agree with Space that scum's going to try to distance themselves around lynches. Usually? Sure. Always? No way.
Reading, important thoughts relating to teams as I go. Super important in bold. Please open another tab so you can follow along. Or just townread me and spare yourselves the agony, I don't care.
#61: As an aside to dead faust: 2/3 correct. It's passing I suppose. Was wrong though about scum supporting me. Then again, so was I.
#66: The Space/LL banter. Not gonna try to read into that.
#92: Space tests the water with me. Good way for scum to distance themselves around, as Space keeps preaching, since nobody had started on me yet.
#97: The Swan-setup question, which IDPTG
quickly pounces on. Fake setup misunderstandings are definitely not something I would or could do as scum, but I'm not going to extend that to scum!Swan. I'd agree with Awaclus in #107, that by itself doesn't tell much. #115 could very well be partnery stuff. Check the pronouns (what, was I no good for you? Also since nobody ever asked me, it/it/its is also acceptable in my case), hint to a newbee buddee that it's too much, get in a justified bus vote. If not teamed and only 1 is scum: justified votes are music to scum's ears, but it's not a terrible accusation from TOWNIDPTG. Nobody else piles on for what that's worth.
#111: Swan talks setup and misunderstands it. Another confusion so soon? Would he play that dumb? ...I still don't know. There's no way its genuine if he's scum, definitely Space and probably LL or IDPTG would've broken down the setup in N0. schadd did change the setup later on, could've been Swan already planning from way before the game started? I really don't know, I can definitely believe the setup change was overlooked. Would Swan put that much work into something that he knew was wrong? I'd really hope he wouldn't waste the time to do that. So I'd lean town on this, but maybe I underestimate the will to win. A Swan's gotta do what a Swan's gotta do.
#122: Unvotes me when there's no pressing need to (Galzria, #137). He explains it...eh. I also wonder why town!Swan would come after me again when he was after me the whole game our first time. I knew I was going to be much more cautious with respect to my scumreads from before. For good reason!
#128: People criticized IDPTG wanting to do a reread so soon, I didn't really understand. When it's easy to get caught up, you might as well.
#144: I didn't notice the error the first time around, so I'm not going to put much weight on this. I need to keep reminding myself that with the partner interactions left, there's always going to be a scum there, so maybe I should be looking for something, like SCUMIDPTG skipped over the post hoping for something juicier to use against somebody? That was pulled out of nowhere.
#150: I mean, not far off from me my first game. Could've been inspired by me (
). Could've fallen into the same trap.
#153: IDPTG's convinced it's genuine. I suppose it's easier to give in when you're looking for 3 scum out of 12 than 2 out of 3. If I was scum bussing, I know I'd ride that out for much longer. Or it could be, like, get your partner to talk and be loud, then go after the middle-lurky people, like Galzria said later.
#176: Reeeallly agree with this. Which worries me. Scum wants to be sensible.
#
183: DatSwan went to a conference. That's sketchy (I promise I won't do that again!)
#216: SpaceReads: Null towards LL. Null towards DatSwan. Null towards IDPTG. Great. The comment on IDPTG (wanting to vote through inactivity, not feeling that) kinda feels like a cutesy team post. I don't know what I'm saying.
#224-225: IDPTG
willing to go to LL. Doesn't, even when more attention comes his way later (more = Dylan). Plans to put if off until D2. Leans town on DatSwan. In the words of Cha Cha Slide, "REVERSE, REVERSE!" (that takes me back). Does Scum throw one partner under the bus one post, give the other town cred after accusing them earlier. I'm cool with that logic.
#230: I could see this as partnery. I'm giving nobody the benefit of the doubt apparently...
#239: But THAT does not seen right to do. Good sign for nonteam IDPTG/Space.
#242: Maybe there is some mustard behind the threat after all. D1 unneeded bus against a 6+ PR's is a risk. Do need to remember LL isn't actually voted for by IPDTG.
#251: And that's a shot against Swan/IDPTG. IDPTG's willing to vote LL, Swan does it first inviting IDPTG to join him. Note that IDPTG does not, in fact, join. Scum Swan would be basically forcing his partner to join him because boy, that would look bad if LL flips and IDPTG doesn't participate immediately.
#260: Vote, don't prod!
#267: Swan switches away from LL, whose wagon is growing...onto Space, and acknowledges willingness to vote for IDPTG too. So ScumSwan was voting a scum, and is willing to vote another. I could see a Swan/Space team, switch from the scar y wagon to the safe wagon. Get Dat Bus in Dat Swan.
#274: LL making small talk with IDPTG. Willing to vote Swan. Null on Space. There's 3 partners there. I don't know where though.
Random: Only 2.7 has really pushed IDPTG. I never like those above suspicion, which is why I'm so self-loathing.
#331: Swan acknowledges he could go for IDPTG. Doesn't. I'm null on this at this point in the day, the lynch wasn't happening..
#338: That Space mixup post again. My favorite. Now there are possibilities for the Space/Swan team.
#
340: One scum in scum reads vs 4 town in scum reads and both scum in town reads? Ewwww. No to the Space/IDPTG team. Or town Space is really wrong.
#356 Swan puts 1 scum in scum reads, splits last 2 potential scum betewen null/scum and scum. Think I like the Swan/Space team a little more than Space/IDPTG.
Overall: As an aside, IDPTG pushing Raptor. Turns out to be incorrect, but I see it as justified. Could go either way.
No need to push each other once it's clear it's going to be Andrew or Dylan. Now seeing that Andrew didn't want to claim to save himself unless absolutely necessary. Makes sense, I remember being awkward when people were trying to get my role out of me. Speaking of which, since I never actually claimed VT, just not-vig: I'm VT. It's a lot less fun than having a role, but it's much less stressful too.
In the end, 2 scum on 1 wagon, 1 scum on the other. Nothing doing there. Space and Swan being together isn't making me discount that team more.
Order of teams after D1 in order of suspicion:
1) Swan/Space
2) Space/IDPTG
3) Swan/IDPTG
I'm really glad I waited until Andrew claimed.
