Idk how I can be clearer about this. Try to put yourself in a scum mindset. You just pulled off a town lynch. Easy enough on day 1, but still, always a relief. You can exhale. It’s over. But then, your mislynch says he gets a vengekill! And he’s talking about your partner. He could shoot at any time. You gotta post something and quick. What’s the safest townie take? Try to talk him into shooting a townie? Of course not. That just makes you look bad after the shot. So you go to the old “don’t use the shot, town vigs are negative utility, etc, etc. That’s what I’m proposing.
I think the average townie reacts like the rest of us did: hey, town has a new weapon we can use. Yeah, we mislynched, but we get a do-over. Let’s put it to the best use we can.
If you are making an argument that raerae is scum that relies on shraeye being scum, then you should really push shraeye and not raerae, so you have to explain why shraeye is scum.
I get your point, but I disagree.
Rae voted for Shraeye literally the entire day up until this post:
Vote: MiX
I think that's L-2?
1) Skummy L-2 mix up. This was post #294. Less than 20 posts previously, Joth voted MiX and claimed L-2. There were no votes in between on anyone from anyone.
2) There is a three part interaction between Rae-Shraeye-Mix, that floods over into the beginning of Day 2 here.
Part 1 - Rae votes for and stays on Shraeye all day up until their vote for Mix. Throughout the day they continue to stand by their Shraeye vote as well as continue to attempt to put pressure on Shraeye:
Hey, raerae, do you have anything to offer besides RVS votes?
Naw, still cool with it considering he hasn't said anything other than arbitrary numbers and a half-promise about a flavor name claim. I could move to MiX probably but I'm fine where I am for now.
"want to say my flavor name"
It's a Scum move: awaclus
It's a spotlight thing: Faust
You do you, girl: joth
Antitown: datswan
Followup question: raerae
Ignored: WCD, Uncle, gkrieg, pubby, Galz, jimmm, EFHW, laLight
Ignored, except to ask if I was doing it: Mix
Majority of scum clearly in the nonresponse group (which includes MiX). Not just because that side has more people.
Let me know who I scummily mischaracterized.
Also, I haven't made up my mind yet
Definitely not clear. Care to expand on why that's so obvious? Seems like you got some insider info, friend.
Hey, Shraeye, could you throw in the change in the cumulative scores in your posts? For clarity, mainly.
How is there any clarity currently?! He hasn't explained what the numbers mean so everybody is just assuming positive is good, negative is bad but he hasn't explained anything.
All fire, no substance. This isn't townrae.
So just not answering questions then? Super cool.
I'm staying here and nominate shraeye as the alternate wagon.
Part 2: Rae thinks Shraeye is skum. Rae also could move to MiX, when the choices presented were Swan or MiX. This adds up still to this point, as Shraeye was on the Swan wagon at this point (why follow your skum read, right?). OK, hold onto that thought.
Part 3: Rae then towards the end of the day puts MiX at L-1, claiming it was L-2. Shraeye follows with the hammer. MiX then immediately claims their power stating they want to vengkill Shraeye. Rae then DEFENDS Shraeye:
Swan or shraeye. SWAN OR SHRAEYE
Someone tell me why shraeye shouldn't die right now.
I AM A VENGEFUL TOWNY.
WHO SHOULD I KILL.
WHY SHOULDN'T IT BE SHRAEYE
HELP ME YOU BASTARDS
If you don't have any strong scum reads then the townie thing to do is nothing.
Nah that's worthless. Ok Ok Ok I need to THINK.
Nope, killing a townie because you just NEED to use your power is selfish and anti-town but you do you, boo.
OK - So the story goes...
- You are skum reading and voting a player all day.
- You end up going for your alternate wagon (which your skum read is not on)
- Then your top skum read comes in and quick hammers the wagon.
- MiX comes out and says they have vengkill.
Why does Rae defend Shraeye there? Why are they "town being shot just because MiX is angry" all of a sudden? The only thing that changed since the previous skum read on Shraeye is that Shraeye came in and hammered MiX. When MiX says they are vengeful they are either trolling or they are truthful, so assuming truthful... this just should make Shraeye more skummy to Rae. Right?
There is of course also the narrative where they both could be skum I suppose, but as people have already touched on it, I am not gonna get into it. But in regards to an on wagon choice - I am:
