@faust, your actual assertion was that either Glooble is scum, or he's town with scum already voting there. Obviously you and I can be suspicious of each other for this. Is it time to consider ADK again? I had a residual townread from D1, but I notice you posted at #480 (i.e. well into D2) that you didn't like some of the stuff they were posting. Now you're pressuring Glooble a fair amount, but not ADK. Why the asymmetry there?

I don't think there was a response to this, was there?

I think faust is only really justified in pushing Glooble so hard if he's convinced that ADK is town, and I want to hear more about that.

@faust, how common is it for you to make this type of "one scum in x" argument based on a wagon? I know it's a very Space thing to do, and I recall a particular game a few years back where scum!you and scum!Haddock basically succeeded in turning town against an even stronger version of the same argument that I was making to say that at least one of you was scum because otherwise there was a five-towns-on-town wagon.
I wouldn't generally make that sort of statement were it not for the facts that (1) the alternate misexile wagon was a VT and (2) the IC put his support behind the wagon. I think both things would scum more eager to join, so it would be particularly notable if they didn't.

It's not like i townread ADK hard or anything. Initially I mainly pushed Glooble because he wasn't doing as much. I think his reaction to that does not come from a towny place, and this is what made me stick to the wagon. ADK could still be scum though.

So could we be seeing some confirmation bias here? Your original case pointed to at least one scum in {Glooble, ADK, me}, but the wagon configuration itself didn't really give you strong evidence which was which. You had a hunch that ADK was less scummy than Glooble, so you went after Glooble pretty hard. Now you're saying the main reason you suspect Glooble is that you dislike his reaction to your pressure, and the wagon evidence that would also implicate ADK is merely secondary. Is that correct?

Just in case it's not clear for everyone else reading along, we'd also expect the wagon behaviour to be quite similar if scum!ADK had been voting town!Glooble, in terms of other scum being reluctant to move there when other options exist. Or, I should point out, scum!faust instead of scum!ADK from my perspective, or even scum!me from everyone else's perspective.

For reference:
re: Dylan's long post, I agree with him on most of his points. I don't have a scumread on Galzria, though.

People who were excited by Dylan's scum!Joseph narrative: Dylan, Galzria, Eevee, Glooble, chairs.
People who were not: EFHW, Didds, faust, Space, ADK, Robz, MiX (?).

I think it's reasonable to assume there is at least one scum in {Galz, Eevee, Glooble, chairs}.

Not really. First of all, I always excluded you from the "pushing for Glooble" folks as you switched to Joseph at a crucial time and that doesn't make sense if you are scum and Glooble town. So it was always {Glooble, ADK}. Second, the reaction to pressure is not my main reason to suspect Glooble. The wagon on Glooble during D1 is. His reaction to the pressure is just the reason I push him over ADK.

Also,

Request prod on Galzria

He's been online on the forums, so it's not like he's completely VLA. And anyways he has no VLA announced.

Fwiw Galz is also holding up our codenames - games.

I’m really sorry for being so low energy today. The glooble - faust argument is a bit hard to follow for me. I still think Glooble seems like frustrated town, but i don’t think faust looks scummy for pushing his argument. Feels to me that both really believe in what they are saying. I absolutely don’t see that as scum v scum, so if one were to flip scum I think the other is almost surely town.

Admittedly I didn’t research dylan’s case against joseph too heavily - i find it hard to find scum day1, i felt like joseph was contradicting himself in a way where he tried to explain his reads disingenuously, also i didn’t find his defense believable after the fact. I like to think i have a good radar for discouraged and frustrated town (it’s pinging now for glooble), and joseph really felt very much like caught scum to me.

Today I think most of the noise in the thread is coming from town, just feels like we aren’t going anywhere and scum is happy to hang back and hope glooble is lynched. I would look at chairs, galzria, maybe SA or Didds. And yes, I know I haven’t been looking hard enough myself, it’s not good gameplay from me.

I’m going to be away from keyboard until 6-7 hours from now, but should make it to the deadline if it’s when i think it is.

It might be a case of just overly sticking to my guns, but really I've had a scum vibe from him all game.

Chairs is my top scumread who I actually think we have a shot at exiling. I will try and find time today to more fully articulate the case on him, but it mostly comes down to voting very opportunistically, sheeping a lot, and generally seeming to lack conviction. The entire game he's struck me as someone posting for the sake of posting. He made a wallpost on day one which contained no analysis and conveyed no real information.
