I've been trying to reconcile: Monarch and Bozo's work on a system to aid the investigator (they did come up with systems... and those systems could have hurt scum's chances by aiding the investigator) with the things that seem scummy about them (Monarch not carefully reading... bozo has less scummy things, but does not do much bozo things. He grilled/drilled one person, but usually we see more of that iirc.)

Why would scum... either one OR two... come up with systems? IF they were scum, they might do it because:
a) this room rarely follows through on such things. So it is safe.
b) there is a flaw in it (like the non-self voting thing) that might be a chink in the armor (ie... if we had not discovered the self vote issue, might that have made a difference later? On the other hand, how would it NOT have been discoovered...)
c) if the room DK's scum... and bozo and/or monarch survive because they seem 'clear', they can end up winning. "Sacrificing" the scum that got caught in the net, but riding through on their own wave.

It seems unlikely, but possible. BOTH are clever enough to do this. EVEN coming up with the system pre-game, and implementing it as scum or town.
How is this different from any other genre where scum join in on mechanical discussions to fit in? Do I look good for driving consensus? Did Kak look good for going against the grain? Does everyone else look good for expressing their own opinions?

I re-read those ghug posts and I don't know what morning me was seeing.

I think I understand his point about Monarch better, but I still think the OMGUS vote is strange and his D1 wasn't great to me. I'm fine to park on ghug for a bit.
My posts no longer strike you as scummy but you're going to leave your vote on me anyway?
I was planning to until I found a better person to vote for, but Sweet outed himself as triple-mafia

Do the people voting sweet right now really think he'd be bold enough to draw attention to his having read into the softing that got damo killed?
Why not?
It very predictably went poorly for him. I think mafia are usually hesitant to talk about the PR reads that motivated their nightkills.

Ya'll are playing checkers while I am playing chess.
I'm playing Lethal Company
It’s the better Amongus.

Do you use Many Company? It’s hilarious to run in with 4+ people
Yeah we use r2modman and have a modlist with some new moons, plus MoreCompany and more suits/emotes. We also added in Mimics (which we aren't sure about yet) an Skinwalkers (which are terrifying)

He has been asking insightful questions and pursuing an investigatory approach. Nobody appears to be working harder to solve the game, than Bozo.

There is nothing scummy about him.
Oh, you did.

I agree with your conclusion.
The pocketing potential in this has me concerned.

Ah, but the most scummy thing about me is that I claim I can make honest alignment reads as Mafia.

There really is no way to get around it, so you might as well vote me for that reason alone.

This is a valid point to make, and one I agree with, but I can't get behind it being justification for voting for Sweet right now in this game
It is the same reason I voted for him last game.
Then vote me every game because it is literally never changing.

This is like voting me for my username, the most moronic way to play.
It will change when you are town, because then you will have the opportunity to make genuine reads.

No, screw you, I will make dishonest reads next game if I roll town again.

I did have it read to me, though.

Oh I see, you were so high on space crystals that when you read your Role PM, you imagined one of your cats was reading it to you. Right.

I have some of my own pseudo science here.

I assume 1-3 scum were on the kak train. Let's call it 2

7 people were not on the train. One is kak and one is me, known town to me.

That would mean 2 of 5 of ghug, rdr, sweet, bozo, Hamilton are scum. Could be 1of 6 or 3 of 5 as well. I doubt all 4 scum were on kak, nor that none were. The other townies in my second group should be able to see this the same way as me
1 of 5*
I'm a little behind but I'm going to vote from this pool. I see ghug has votes but I don't understand that yet. Bozo always seemed tired, and sweet send more and more town. So for now I'm between Hamilton and rdr.

I am not sure that wasn't the point, some of his voters could be bussers.

Yes, but why not wait longer to see if someone else would break the tie in the direction you preferred?
