Now, on to reads. I guess my lynch priorities are like this now:
Witherweaver > silver > Joseph > Ashersky > Awaclus.
So Awaclus is the towniest now, and here's why: he claimed last. I don't know exactly how scum got pigeonholed into both claiming VT, but I'm guessing it has to do with being afraid of claiming the same modifier as someone else and getting caught that way. With Awaclus as the last to claim, there's just no way he claims VT as scum. That's way too dangerous for him. And he's smart enough to read the situation and be aware of the horrible odds for scum if he claims VT.
For the same reason that Awaclus' claim is credible, Ash and Joseph's claims are now less credible, because unless both of them are scum, scum!them wouldn't have known that their partner would later claim a PR. I'd go ahead and say that Ash/Joseph is probably an unlikely pairing though. It's unlikely that they both gambit to "accidentally" claim VT in order to win. Well, then again, Ash claimed masons with Gkrieg. So maybe he would try something that stupid.
At any rate, here's the even MORE clinch thing: The most unlikely pairing is probably Ash/Awaclus. Let's not forget about their fight at the beginning of the day. Ash said agreeing with Awaclus was scummy, Awaclus said "some stuff" (I'm not going to try to repeat it, lol). It seemed pretty authentic. It didn't look like scum partners at all. So basically, as long we don't lynch one of these two, and they aren't partners, we win the game. Hey, that's good odds. I'm (almost!) willing to bet the game on those odds.
Finally, why WW? Well here's the thing. This is something I noticed about WW in simply simpler. When he's scum, his fake reads suck. Like, go look up my neighborhood with WW in Simply Simpler where he tried to encourage me to lynch literally the weakest town players in the game. And he's doing the same thing here: picking on people calling them scummy and ignoring others' (and his own) actual scummy behavior.
As for silver, I'm inclined to let him live one more day. I think he's probably scum and his interactions with WW (well, more like WW's ignoring him) has been very partnery, but he has been a lot townier since I called him out on being scum. So as much as I think that he's actually just acting towny out of self-preservation because someone noticed that he's scum for once, I don't think he's the BEST lynch for today.
My lynch pool is basically the top three. I think an Ash or Awaclus lynch is pretty bad.
