I think WF kill was revealing for another reason but I'll keep that up my sleeve for now as I want to see what scum do next.

The kill on WF is interesting. I would have expected them to be protected or watched. Or at least expect the scum to be paranoid enough about that to not target them. D1 I woulda expected Pie or WF to be protected given how they were viewed. I do not see any real potential in this size of game for the kill to have been diverted from Pie to WF. Unless Pie flips some kinda mafia beguiler or such (I think some sites call it a hider off the top of my head?) I am thinking some kinda godshot / strongman action as a D1 on WF. Theory crafting but its whats on my mind and I am obligated to over explain.
How were we viewed? As far as I recall, I was sussed by both Banana and Wryly

maybe i am barking up the wrong tree here. did anyone else think whiteflames post 2 was a strong case for him being a pr?
Nah not in post 2
u think helz was tmi there too?
boop!
What Wryly said makes perfect sense to me. Jim Carrey being in 57 movies has nothing to do with the 2/7. The 2/7 is based purely on the OP that scum were given 4 fake characters, out if which 2 are real
Why 7/2?
Jim Carry has been in 57 films. If I were to quantify the likelihood of the anticlaim being touched before considering the films he was in and what would be valid for something in this game it would not be that simple targeting flavor. You are behaving as if you thought he only acted in as many films as we have players which makes me wonder if you got some sorta list of what films exist that I did not.
This makes zero sense lol. Him being in 57 movies is irrelevant. If there’s 7 town with different movies, and Luna said he have 4 (2 are with town, and 2 aren’t), the ratio makes perfect sense

I don’t think it’s TMI. Different people can read the same thing and come to different conclusions
As much as I disagree with Helz here, I don’t think it’s scummy. His play would be far less erratic imo. Theres no need for him to be erratic here as scum. He’s a very calculated individual. This may be an act, but it’s a very risky act if he were scum
I haven't posted reads because everyone has been null for me so far, but if you would like a further breakdown of null, here you go.
whiteflame -- While he was apparently townread last game, I saw nothing that tipped me one way or the other. He was cautious, analytical, weighed every sus carefully, and even before he VTL'd he reserved some doubts. All of this is NAI for him. I initially kicked around some speculation about whether his assertion that a mass claim was "game-breaking" indicated anything, as this seemed a little much, but even that was meh. scum!whiteflame doesn't go "omg no!" like that.
Thoth -- As much as everyone made a big fuss about him suggesting a mass claim and then not being the first to claim, it was unremarkable to me. He threw it out there and then wanted to discuss pros and cons, he wasn't flooring the gas on the suggestion. You don't volunteer your claim first if you think the mass claim might not go off anyway. When he was pressed to claim it was for derogatory reasons, so big whoop, he didn't immediately do it. What pushed me to a vote was the Bus Driver claim. It sounded suspicious and it was pretty much all I had to go on. As usual I also took the "but it's too swingy and town-sided!" arguments too seriously.
Helz -- Helz is always reading a lot into things that I just don't see, and he gets very focused on details and goes all in on his interpretations of them. Totally NAI. This detail-oriented nature can also make him highly critical of people who haven't given him many details to go on yet, so his current FOSes don't surprise me. I agree with Pie that his behavior this DP is a little too out there to be comfortably scumread. I've got a bit of a town lean on him now. This is subject to change.
Banana -- I like what I've seen from her so far and her reads have mirrored my own, but that is very often the case, even when she's scum, so I always need to take it with a big grain of salt. I've got no real reason to scumread her though. I like her activity and participation this DP. I don't really think Helz's interpretation of whiteflame's second post is super suspicious, more baffling than anything.
Pie -- As either town or scum Pie just goes after the weakest target DP1 and squeezes. Unless something more concrete develops, town usually just follows along since it's the path of least resistance. Totally NAI for him. I fully admit I have Pie!anoia, as if Pie is scum and town isn't super active, that's just gg. There's no chance. In a low-activity game Pie is usually posting a lot, voicing impatience with town for being inactive, and I just haven't seen that from him this game, so my eyebrow is raised. If he's scum it would make sense to be less active than usual DP1, get rid of whiteflame, then dominate the conversation later. But this could all just be muh Pie!anoia, so meh.
Rex -- Sporadic posting: NAI. Goes along with the LHF wagon on Thoth: NAI. Thinks the mass claim is dumb: NAI. Doesn't fall for the obvious RT: NAI. Argues Thoth's role is too late-game swingy to be real: NAI. He's a town lean because of the Miller claim, that's it.
wylted -- He was pretty gung-ho for the mass claim, but when isn't wylted an impulsive dice-roller. He talked too much about which roles indicate which characters than I would like when scum have the list they have, but when isn't wylted an impulsive talker. Jumped on Helz pretty fast for the odd interpretation of whiteflame's second post, but when isn't wylted an impulsive voter.
Bring the fucking like button back to mafia, you fun-killing fascists.
DP1 #221 you indicated Thoth was innocent by saying there were two scum among the non-voters. Why vote for him then?
Bring the fucking like button back to mafia, you fun-killing fascists.
I also thought we might need a scum to vote on Thoth to secure a lunch so just some light pressure to make them feel like they may look more guilty by not assisting in the lynch
So you think scum is off the lynch? That's kind of wifomy isn't it?

Surprised there's been so little movement since I last checked in. Note that Pie is now at L-2 so let's be careful here.
I want a claim from Mago and if we don't get one, we should just eliminate him.

At Kanye concert rn, I’ll respond when I get back, but right now REF is probably town cause WF townread him, so no point to kill him this early. I’m town. WF is town. Odds are likely for that lynch to go off, either Wryly or Wylted or both are scum.
Vibes from Wryly have been off all game. She just feels different.
I am not sure that I get the Pie push. It is late and I just skimmed the thread catching up but I have not even seen someone make a case against them as votes pile.
Not game related but small world. The concert you are at right now's lead sound engineer is my business partner. Kinda made me laugh

I am more interested in making them participate and give reads than just demanding a claim. I have been saying it for a while but they are both the lowest activity and contribution slot in the game. I am not sure if I know of a single stance they have on anyone and may as well be an empty slot. If a policy did not put us at LYLO if they are town I would favor it. Also, we are in a very rough position unless we can get them to engage.
