I also think the scum reads on me are at best lazy and at worst fake. If you look at what I have done this game:
- pushed for an Eddie lynch D1
- gave a powerful artifact to a Baudelaire N1
- opposed the terrible pubby lynch D2
I think you're going to see that I have a very pro-town track record.
1) You pushed Eddie... credit there. But you did so in an instance where if you were skum you would of known for a fact 3 of the 4 players in the No Lynch Team were town (at a minimum)... and eddie only go to L2. Then you bailed with everyone to MiX. So yeah, you could be town with a good read on Eddie, but also you could be skum that is capable of making this play on eddie... which you def are capable of.
2) you giving the artifact to a kiddo means nothing unless you are claiming to be the assumed last vfd and knew WCD was a kiddo. without that knowledge... you could easily just be skum and of been passing the artifact around because it is a forced part of your role or something.
3) while I agree the pubby lynch was horrible... I can think of a game not to long ago where I claimed cop results as town in a similar fashion and you snapped lynched me... so I don't really give you much credit for that. plus, add in the potential of conf!bias.
But most importantly it is you claim.... you are a commuter? really? why not just claim 1 shot bullet proof and make it easy on us?
except this is worse. You have simultaneously given yourself a reason to wake up tomorrow by stating you did not commute last night (which is what you would go back to if needed)... but more importantly.... if you can commute, and you are town, you literally just helped skum narrow the pool of people to shoot for tonight... unless of that one very specific reason of if you are the last kid. but if you were the last kid this is not how you would play it.
You are too good of a player to do this as town. You would just keep quiet, or make something up, or claim something that makes you look like the kid without giving a reason not to have skum target you at night.
Then I am torn because you are also too good of a player to do something so obviously bad for town as skum.
You may be the third VFD, you may be some random ass town that for some reason has the ability to commute, and you very likely might be skum.... but you are for sure not the last kid.
*insert a vote for faust here* I am not up to date on the vote count and do not want to accidentally hammer/L1
