N1ed is Town Shrub and Yoyo early scum reads


I'd say I don't understand how you TR N1'd but I TR'd him last game so I have no right to say anything.

If you're pr aren't you meant to hardclaim? Arcbell was asking Shrub for a hardclaim when Shrub claimed pr but didn't specify which. You probably shouldn't claim until someone else says so though. Haha! What a useless post!


... The more I read him, the more I want him lynched.

antikrist says

Yoyo pointing out a PR soft makes me automatically mark him as scum. It wasn't necessary and pretty forced.


I agree with this. If I add the fact he had such clear reads so early in the game, then at page 18, he's my main scumread. Let's see if he manages to change my mind.

How could you have such clear reads so early in the game, when not everyone had spoken? This isn't okay.

ThirdAug is completely null and salty, as I expected him to be. I'm keeping my vote on him until I get a real scumread.

Hi i just finished catching up so im just wondering if we are letting thirdaug get a chance to claim before lynching him?


I really, really don't like this line. It's not what you said, but the way you said it. It sounds opportunistic.

It's like you're trying to say "hey, look at them, they're ridiculous for scumreading me, you shouldn't scumread me as well because their reads make no sense"

I don't think it's the way town would react to a scumread.

ThirdAug says

I'm currently voted by groundhogday, UltraAug, and Arcbell


Arcbell - hardcore grudge lyncher, will provide evidence if asked

groundhogday - all he did was claim to have a gun this entire day

UltraAug - didn't even bother reading this fake


I don't like how you're completely invalidating the fact people are scumreading you. If you were town, I don't feel you would be disregarding these scumreads that much. I think you'd be more self-aware and recognize why you're being scumread, or at least try to understand where these reads are coming from. At least, I can't believe you invalidated all three like that.

I feel like it's really easy to TR the PR claim. I don't TR the PR claim. I will pick up and continue reading from where I left off because I'm on a computer now. Not mine, but still a computer.

Also all your conjectures about my thoughts or motives or reasons are completely dogsh*t wrong.

Shrub I can tell you're going to be a huge waste of energy to me this game.

Okay, first of all, I treat you as town only because you're claimed PR, no other reason.

You're the only one that really wants me lynched so I'm not going to bother spending a lot of time on but I literally don't know your alignment for sure. You're acting like either mafia or really really stupid town. You're also claimed PR, so you thinking I'm mafia is slightly dangerous. What if you're Vig? That should explain why I'm spending any time on you at all.
over 8 years
Your motive in the beginning when i first scumread you appeared to be trying to have a towntelling and very forced reaction my fos - i believe you thought i was reaction testing you and therefore did not want to either omgus or townread me. When it became apparent that my fos was legitimant you have dug in on the grounds that i should not be lynched because im a pr well still scumreading me. This is because as mafia you want to play to the long game due to (i assume) town having many mislynches in this game and therefore you want to not have me lynched day one as when i flip pr it would make you look very bad indeed.

You also refused to explain why you were town when asked - instead defensively responding with "why should i" To appear as if you werent appealing to me - which in fact you have been doing all game long.

Overall you have consistantly shown to have a mafia mindset and intent behind your posts and that is why you are the best lynch for town today.

Shrub says

Arcbell at this point am i correct in thinking you have marked me as town? Currently instead of scumreading me when I've been saying you were mafia since you scumtold early in the day you have just been implying im town reading incorrectly. The Whole time. Either admit you townread me or get lynched because if you dont the way you continually appeal to me and yet if you appeal to me and fos me you are obvious mafia to everyone else as wel as me.


I don't townread you at all I just think we shouldn't lynch a claimed PR day 1. If you weren't claimed PR rest assured I'd be lynching you.


BIG WALL COMING IM EXPLAINING WHY ARCBELL IS MAFIA AND NEEDS TO BE LYNCHED

The fact that throughout the entire game you have been reffering to me as town and trying to find other reasons why i fos you OTHER than i am mafia trying to lynch town prooves undoubtedly that you are mafia. You have consistantly tried to find an excuse for why i fos you - from the perspective that i was town. Your excuse that you fos be but do not want me lynched as i claimed pr is inadequate beacause firstly you did this before i claimed pr, and secondly because you would refer to me as mafia did you think i was mafia.

Your mindset in your interactions with me has been that i am town misreading you as i stated earlier, you were either A) town who is frustrated they are being fos'd because they think they deserve to be townread or B) Mafia who is frustrated they are being fos'd because they thing they are too good to be lynched day one in forum mafia.

If we lynch in luckers and we hit town what happens? no interaction no nothing oh well were f'd! it's just so bad imo


even if we hit a town, with the number of mislynches there are in a 17 player setup we have the luxury of getting rid of liabilities

i'm not fosing arcbell yet but i have been a little less certain about him being town as time has gone on. however i'm still relatively confident in n1ed being town and somewhat confident about minecraft being town. no offense but i don't think she's smart enough to pretend to be a mess as maf.
