i don't think anyone is in charge of town. i'd rather not give anyone that much power right now.

shrub you yelled earlier about "all of your reads being right" but yet you refused to lynch thirdaug and FLIPPED like we were about to lose the whole game when we hammered imsohappy. i'm not sring you but i think you're not acting very smart rn.

i'm starting to feel a fos on gerry after his reluctance to lynch imsohappy until we had claims, but it's not the safest bet afaik. i still think lonerism is the best lynch we have right now because they've been acting shady this whole time.


Okay. Let's use our brains here. Why would I be willing to lynch THirdAug the MAFIA ROLE COP. But, not willing to lynch imsohappy THE NILLA GOON as mafia.

lonerism: After not talking and coming back to say “I fos Gerry” then saying you haven’t read, and are going to go read, then completely leave the topic, it makes me strongly believe you are maf cause it shows you are actively reading cause like, minecraft had said something about lynching you and agreeing with me about you being a liability, you magically come back as like an attempt not to get lynched. Sorry, but you’re just screaming “I’m mafia!!” I kinda thought you were town, but like the way you came back.. no, I really do not believe you are town.

izzy: I’m really lost on this one, I want to know how most of you have solid trs on izzy, cause I’m not finding lines worth a solid tr..

izzy says

THANK GOD I HOPE THIS WAS THE RIGHT CHOICE i think tomorrow we'll know more


That line isn’t the towniest but like, it’s a weird rxn to votes ending.. idk. You said something about meta and whatnot making Dorzel town, then you turn around and want to lynch him? You’re like trying to organize the votes to flip it to Dorzel [/quote] we cant hammer this everyone is fricking offline even if me and mori flip it would only be 6 people [/quote]which doesn't help anyone. if everyone voting imsohappy flips to dorzel it's still......6 people.[/quote] As of now I’m thinking 1 maf is in izzy/Dorzel, I just really need someone with a strong tr on izzy to prove why izzy is town? I’m not seeing it.

Dorzel: Do you ever say useful stuff?

Dorzel says

I might be Captain Obvious here but these days really take a long time for not a lot of lynching


like every word that you say seems to be filler, I’m noticing others point that out too You like, disappear for around 24 hours, then appear just to filler... My sr is staying on you until you can quote something you did that was towny, I read 40 pages, and saw nothing towny from you, so I’d love to hear why you’re town.

Dorzel says

If we lynch happy and they flip mafia i would like to be clear.


And this, you were seemed absolutely certain happy would flip maf, yet you gave no reasoning!! You said Gerry was maf, and 2 of your posts later, you say happy is flipping maf.

Papuito:

papuito says

OMG rip sonia. So tbh i was going to comment on the last day but you guys kinda sorta lynched fast which in this situation worked out because i had the incorrect read. I think we are at the point where we should all out our roles and then just lynch in the cc's or in blues if thats the case and tbh alot of people have towntold so far (I didn't think sonia was one of them). I really wanna know what everyone else thinks of this idea before doing it but personally i think its optimal and increases the chance of lynching mafia.


I like where papuito’s head is at, but the problem is we don’t know the exact number of prs, or do we? Correct me if I’m wrong please, but it sounds like he had good intent, but it’s not the place for that. And he had a better rxn to Sonia’s death than Gerry did. Pap, I’m really appreciating how much you talk…I’m just scared you’re maf flying under the radar, cause you’re lines are super null, you need to start leaning 1 way soon.

Gerry: I find it weird you know, or think there’s 2 pr left,

Gerry says


papuito says

care to explain why


2 More PRs are out there. IMO. No need to out them. Especially with the BG gone.


like to me it kinda seems you’re testing for reactions from people you’re thinking are prs if you’re maf, like why would you say how many you think there are as town? I mean, a bunch of your lines sound weird, I could see you saying them as maf, like this one

Gerry says

Damn. I didn't expect Sonia to die. Maybe she died saving someone?


you can not tell me that line is some towny whatever, it just sounds scummy to me, like you tried to kill someone, but Sonia saved them kind of thing.

Alright I have 1000+ words for my reads lol

These reads are just my rough reads with Shrub being the towniest and lonerism being the scummiest, PLEASE correct me if I’m wrong on anything in my reads, I’m sure something is out of context/whatnot, by no means are these my final reads, this is just what I got by reading a few pages from each person. For some the order of people was hard to place... Alright, here they are..


Shrub:

Shrub says

ok it im trusting you guys and voting the same person as yoyo omg ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

IMSOHAPPY THE VILLAGER FUCKKK

vote imsohappy fuckufuccufkcuckfuckckf ok i fukin did it


I mean, just reading this line you said, it really makes it look like you didn’t want to vote happy, and actually thought he was town, that seems towny to me tbh. And most of your lines seem towny, like, if you’re maf, you’re gonna win, cause I don’t sr you to the point I plan on lynching you soon, my only thing I’m not liking is this solid tunnel on Gerry, like, he seems to be the main person you’re reading and focusing on.

Minecraftfangirlftw: Town. I’m not doubting it. Minecraft is funny too, so we aren’t lynching them, they’re with Shrub, both are my solid trs, it’ll take a lot to change them.

Minecraftfangirlftw says

Shrub, Gerry is not getting lynched today
Gerry, Shrub is not getting lynched today please dont waste your votes on omgusing voting each other is basically a vote for nl, do you guys want that?


Minecrft is also like the peace keeper here, trying to stop this srub vs Gerry arguing, cause it is getting annoying.

Mori: I posted my reasoning, Mori is town.

yoyo200900: It seems to be agreed you’re town, you aren’t doing anything scummy, I don’t see maf calling towncircles much, for now you’re town, like the only way to make this read change would be to suddenly slip or whatever idk, part of me is just trusting shrub here, but your lines are fine.

Yoyo, I don't scumread you anymore. But these are three reasons why I scumread you before this day:

1) You had very, very clear reads extremely early (first 15 pages) of the game, which to me made no sense as town.

2) Like PonyLove quoted, you pointed out a PR soft which in my opinion is a scumtell. Sometimes mafia outs PR softs not to warn their partners, but to reaction test the person who softed and try to check whether the person is actually PR or not from their reaction.

3) You had lines I thought were extremely forced, and I quoted them all.

I don't see how you claim I didn't have a reason to FOS you because unlike whatever you might think, you weren't overly towny. But I retract my FOS because you had extremely good interactions with imsohappy - so did Shrub.

I'll be quoting all of it as soon as I'm on my computer.

This'll just be my read on Mori btw, She's a townread, not my strongest, but definately a tr.

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.


This seems like Mori and ThirdAug are not on the same team, cause if they were both maf, it'd be like Mori puting all the attention on Third to bus him, but why would maf want to bus their role cop (is that like a stalker?) but why would maf bus their role cop so early when it seems like there are so many prs in this.


Mori says


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.


and yoyo, pointing out a pr soft isn't towny, I dont see why you see it as a push, dude it was scummy and you know it. Think if a pr is softing, and you out it, then they die, who's the scummy one there? idek what this soft was you outed, but dont take it as a push against you, Mori's lines aren't bad, I'm pretty sure she's town, so I suggest changing your Gerry/Mori maf read yoyo

I'm going to bed for 8 hours. Don't fos anyone in Shrub/Pony/Minecraft/Izzy while I'm gone. Everyone unvote. Dorzel should claim and explain his softclaim that he referenced previously. Don't forget that I'm rightfully in charge of the town. If you disagree with any of this post you should reread all of my lines since the start of the game and reread all of the dead townspeople that said that I was town.


I disagree that you are in charge of town.

What's your opinion on Mori's cluster of posts that start on page 50? I want a second opinion on how legitimate her push on me might have been.


That was where my townread on her came from. I saw the same issue in your play she did. Your reads were all over the place and in the large part unjustified. However I hard townread you because of the intent behind your posts. A player who places higher importance on what people do rather than intent would SCUMREAD you at that point in the game, not now though. I think it was a legit push.

Can we kill Sonia.





That was a reaction test.

I hard townread them because of the towny reaction. I got bored of tunnelling Arcbell.
