The question on Lunatic is if he would switch the wagon away from Casey (assuming Casey is scum). He’s ballsy enough, but would he have good reason to think he can get away with it?

Being ballsy could be the reason.

Sure, but in general it doesn’t seem scummy at first glance. Not at all

Helz seems like a pretty good player. I would assume he has no trouble looking towny.

Never did a deep dive but Helz’s approach at a glance seems more like townie who is obsessive and wrong than scum

I don’t think Helz has been scum on here, so no control group

This game has 13 players and 118 potential ‘characters’. I wouldn’t have thought twice before making that joke lmao
sure, but magnesium has some common everyday uses iirc

tell me why krypton, neon, and xenon are all that different. Outside of Oganesson and Helium, all the noble gases are essentially the same character, the only common use for them i know is one they all share: they make the signs glow. I doubt Pie went ultra-specific with an obscure use that one random metal or noble gas has that the others don't. if some claims have their uses as justifications, it gonna be common uses and as such, the character pool is effectively far less than 118

And you don’t think there is a chance Pie thought of that and included some less commonly discussed elements? If I were designing this game, I would choose the elements randomly.

UNVOTE

VTL: Helz


Fuck it. I’m trusting my gut. I think Rex will be Rex, and Helz is giving me bad vibes. Agree with me or don’t. My vote is parked unless something major happens.

In context it was Mag discussing Mag talking about a game on MS. Not even related to this game unless I am missing something.
Mag was explaining a mafia doc that was useless and a loyal vig and they threw out that post. I am not even sure how that post connects to this game.

I think you are looking at a different post.

I think Rex has a tendency to try to skid past day 1 noncommittally as scum, and I can’t see Scum!Rex wildly chucking around votes on day 1 like Helz drew attention to in #556. He probably has his reasons, though I don’t know what they are.


I think flipping Rex will at least give us information to work from even if he flips town. I will judge Helz in particular in light of Rex’s flipz

I completely disagree that the Mikal/Helz catfight looked contrived. Mikal loves angleshooting and Helz hates it. We knew that since way before this game. Worst-case scenario is that they exaggerated a show out of the argument they would have had anyway.
My real take there is that given how much I absolutely hate angleshooting and the bullshit Mikal pulled somehow some way Rex still manages to frame this as a scum read and to suggest I am teamed with them. Really.

Take a moment and look at the positions Rex has taken and how illogical they are.

I am not disagreeing, but weird positions and shortposting are NAI for Rex, especially on day 1.

Does the Jewish community ostracize people who are born in Jewish households but don’t care about religious observations like Shabbat?

I am scumreading #213. Saying scum can’t control the elimination with Kohai as town’s HMFIC is too stupid for Helz. Even if everyone agreed to vote with Kohai, which is unlikely, scum would just have to sway Kohai specifically rather that sweet-talk the whole town.

Re: #504. How is Bullish town by softing?
Softed radium, then revealed it later. Obvious PR behavior, as mafia has already figured out by now. It obviously looked like a soft the second he posted it. For obvious reasons, I didn't wanna say that earlier.

How is it PR behavior to soft and then claim lmao. Imma do that every game as scum from now on if yall believe that

Furthermore, the mod has little incentive to have role that gets revealed dp4. you see, it's not just that the game coulnd beforehand, it's also that surviving until DP4 is tricky.

I think it’s more likely than not that my role will take effect before then, and Pie said that it will be revealed in my flip regardless of when I die. Plus, with 13 players, more than half will be alive on DP4 unless there are extra kills, which there might be, but even then the odds are decent.

Shining giving something resembling decent reads in #269 almost feels AI for him because it's usually like pulling teeth to get a read out of him. I almost wonder if scum chat was feeding him reads. Not that I always hold up my promises to give reads later.
