Okay, this response is kind of blanket I'm not going to quote the exact questions I am referring to.
I do think scum do pick Day 1 targets. As scum I generally like to review the list of players and identify who presents the biggest threat or who is the easiest to get a mislynch. In RMM12 we identified sudgy as the mislynch candidate for D1. When things didn't work out on that front we knifed him that night for the WIFOM which overall was a great plan. In some way earlier regular game where I was partnered with YoungNick against manda and sharkbait and Eevee and some old-timer like Robz or Galz or Grujah I don't remember we specifically set out to get the long timer dead ASAP. I am easy target because I tend to be very forward and I tend to be fairly committed to my reads. Also, statistically speaking, I am scum way more often than not so over time I am easy to distrust.
I think conspiracy theories are just that. There is usually a grain of truth in all of them. My gut read told me to doctor Galzria inmy first game ever which earned me MVP, my gut read told me to hammer ashersky in the Grimm game. There was no real supporting evidence in either case. I was Town working on a hunch and an early one at that. I think playing on logical deduction is s much firmer path to take but this is D1 and there is nothing but perception to work with here.
It was good for me to go ahead and puke out what I was seeing. I agree, and said as much earlier, that viewing it all from what is happening to me is a weak position to take primarily because it is impossible to truly get anyone to see what I perceive.
I understand that it is outlandish and even errant and poor play to call scum teams. I am not calling scum teams and I am not asserting that if TA were scum he somehow has to have 4 partners. What I am saying is that IF TA is scum then a partner is in the mix because there appears to be enough cooperation and/or sheeping to support the idea. I have so many Town reads because when I read each player outside the TA partner lens they come off as Town which I think is a more logical way to read someone if my suspicion on TA is wrong. I mean, I did just say calling pairs is bad, right? When I put on the TA must be Town lens everyone around him appears even Townier.
Thus I maintain that either scum is well in control of this game or they aren't really playing this day. You will note where my vote currently stands. I hope this shows that while I have some wild-eyed and breathless views on what may be happening I'm not letting them dictate where I ultimately place my vote because I do recognize the fallibility of it all.
