Also, upon re-reading my PM, I just realized that it is factually incorrect.

The PM itself? Might want to touch base with Bullish about that.

Yes, it's factually incorrect per my existing understanding and per a quick search. I know what Bullish confused it with, though, and there's no point arguing about it since the justification still makes sense.

Alright I have mildly calmed down so I am going to catch up

I do not like Pie's push on Kohai. Seems way to forced and seems to be trying to draw a mislynch opportunity

Yeah. Not sure how much softing but it's scientific.

The loss was not heartbreaking itself. My QB getting injured was

I think Pie being aggressive and pushing hard is weird. Certainly harder than usual to be fair. I can't dock points on being out on a Saturday after proceeding to make the claim of needing activity because I am guilty as such. But still don't love it.

If we had more posts this DP I actually could see Kohai being a bit of an FoS because it seems like is some filler posts with no true depth, but can't read much into with 97 posts and 3/4 of the post truly not being much

I think they're either Disc or 7thprof. Those are my theories.

I'll just soft that my character, along with the justification and role, make absolutely zero sense whatsoever.

Most of Kohai's posts could go either way, I don't really care for this one. Like, it could be an easy way to excuse a poorly made fake claim. If this is true, then the odds of being Pie's teammate go down.

It would imply a less experienced teammate.

Pie-Kohai is still possible off Pie's behavior, but odds are decreased off the above.

Pie's push doesn't feel genuine, Kohai isn't squaky clean either.

Part of me doesn't like how focused Whiteflame is on softclaims, but the openness of his own admittedly feels town.

Not enough on Lunatic.

Vader vibes well atm, mostly off his approach.

So Vader, Whiteflame, Thoth not my first targets, my only solid townread is Thoth.

Could grab a claim from Pie, Kohai, or JenKiggans.

Need to see more from Lunatic.

Vote Kohai plz. Otherwise it’s going to be CFD and town may not get a lynch on scum like last game lol

Dude, I don’t get why you’re pushing this hard for this, especially given the DP extension.

Gotta generate the activity early on. We’ve been sitting on our asses early on. If I have to be the bad guy to do that, that’s fine

I do like this specific post.

Alr hear me out. I feel there would be a lot more opportunism if both Pie/Kohai were town. I'm gonna pick one in a second.

I just forgot that Whiteflame's openness is irrelevant due 1 free fake claim being given. Idk if "role/character claim" in the OP means both or one of the two only. Either way I can see it being used. Same deal with my thoughts on Pie/Kohai.

Kohai voting PIe is obv what he'd do as either affiliation, plus he was the first to vote Pie. I townread Thoth for the moment.

It doesn't seem like scum is targeting Pie with any opportunism. Nor are they targeting Kohai for it either. I could see a MvM or TvM here easily.

You two are my early towncore, moreso Thoth than Vader. Thoughts on the thread so far? Who should we push for a claim and why? (Thoth I see you voted, but I still want something in-depth from both of you.)

I see a few posts from Kohai that vibes well, some that feel bad. Same with Pie. Screw it.

VTL Pie

putting Pie at L-2 just to get a claim out of someone this DP

and then I want to grab Kohai’s claim right after

Well, we have to start somewhere, so let’s do some light soft claiming. If people want to follow me on this, you’re welcome to do so, just thinking we say what medium our apocalypse is from.

Mine is from a book.

Mine's a pretty common fear, though im unsure how realistic it is. Maybe more realistic if you buy into paranoia from recent events.

Hmm, interesting. So just to get a basic idea, your apocalypse is not cited as being from a given source, or is it cited as being from multiple sources as a broadly used type of apocalypse?

I would say the first one. Very real fear, just not one I personally think will ever happen in my life time. Though many would probably disagree.

Pie's push doesn't feel genuine, Kohai isn't squaky clean either.

Unfortunately his push isn't really identifiable as either way, this is a move I think he would make as town or scum. I explore the possibility of him being scum and pushing kohai only because he got targeted hard last game for not doing that, though in all honesty with kohai being a scum yakuza, he was probably forced into not pushing him there. Kohai was already reading scummy in that game to me, and probably others at that point, and a pie push could have resulted in a castrophic loss of the yakuza early. So the Kohai push is either entirely normal here, or its making up for what he wasn't afforded to do last game. Either way, it still pushes towards null I think.

On the other hand kohai's response to pie is interesting. On one side of the coin I can see it being scummy, if we are perceiving it as aggression. I don't know if I see it that way, I think I see it more as defensive, which is common to his reactions to pie's pushing him. His usual instinct is more of a "Fuck you" reaction to pie, like in the game where he got mislynched dp1 for not claiming, or even From mafia where he wanted to quit after even an ounce of pressure from pie, not wanting to deal with it. Trying to decide whether his reaction of "insta scum reading" pie is consistent with "Fuck you" town mentality, or if it's more consistent with a scum play of "Throw shit against the wall to see what sticks" maybe using pies previous game as mafia against him, with people having heightened awareness around him.

I am open minded to them being a scum team and just bussing, but the odds of that are very low, and if that is the case they did a poor job bussing by making themselves the largest targets here. I am more willing to view this as TvT, or TvS.
