Re: M72 - “Echoes of Evelyn” - Game Thread [HIDDEN]
there’s a zero percent chance that scum team debacle where he ended up putting a vote on me and then taking it off was fake. there was a line of logic going through it the whole way which led to a conclusion. the logic was based on bad premises but it was still clear and able to be followed. Then his own cognitive dissonance regarding his conclusion caused him to question it and adjust. idk it was like the whole scientific process played out in front of us and if he was faking that whole thing then he deserves an Oscar.

A wagon that only existed because I pushed it at the start of the day, yes. I left it only after it was no longer happening, to protect my top townread, and I may well have left it for a different scum member.

Re: M72 - “Echoes of Evelyn” - Game Thread [HIDDEN]
That's bs. I'd have started the celaph wagon if you hadn't, and you made like two posts about how he was scummy and ignored him for the next 47 hours when you suddenly said you'd be up for boatman. I was struggling to see your celaph interactions as scummy because I thought they weren't that different from mine, but they actually are pretty different. I actually pushed celaph and tried to read him, and you scumreading me for all that instead of thinking we are coming from a similar place *especially when you followed my vote to boatman* is itself super scummy.Hellenic Riot wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 10:50 pmA wagon that only existed because I pushed it at the start of the day, yes.

Uh when I joined the celaph wagon with 9 minutes left it was just me, HR, and Vecna, who was afk and stuck on a vote from like 5 hours prior. And it was only after then that you and ghug joined and only after that that HR left to try and bury me to save Celaph (though he claims it was to save Bob)Chaqa wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 10:01 pmHellenic Riot wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 9:37 pmI think you'll find I led the charge on celaph, even if I decided to hedge later on.

Re: M72 - “Echoes of Evelyn” - Game Thread [HIDDEN]
bona's thoughts
Bob, I believe, is partially cleared by the d1 VCA, as celaph and durga made bob a viable wagon. However, I have not been feeling him as much recently as I have d1. Perhaps this is just I haven't played with him enough recently, but I'm not as sold on a huge townread of him like some other people have.
Blamp had the most terrible interaction with boat man late in day 2, which is where I first really hard scumreading boat man, but I believe blamp comes off equally terribly in the conversation as well. This series of posts is what really scares me, and he hasn't improved at all since. Also, I reread for the capitalization thing I caught earlier and found some interesting stuff:
Chaqa has been on the ending wagon every day that it mattered (d1 and d2). Don't have any real insight here except that my brain says he's town but I can't get my gut behind that.
damo does wrong math and has a set of immutable 'assumptions' and an absolutely flawless set of 'reasoning'. I know damo likes to do this but I don't recall him being this adamantly wrong. leanscum but I'm not ruling out him just being wrong
I can't remember anything RHK has done, reread showed basically nothing substantial since n1, idfk
same for donny but d2
has vecna even posted
i can't read ghug
the metallic finger doesn't really post often. this wouldn't be an issue but for the fact that he doesn't say anything in his posts. scumread
HR is scumread by a lot of people, largely based on d2 vca, which like, I kinda get, but does HR really doubleguess himself right after voting boat man? maybe. I don't scumread him anything like some other people do for that.
jamie is town
kgary is kinda in a weird place, and VCA is kinda iffy, but no posts have jumped out at me, so i'll give her a pass for now
i agree with kgary on maniac, but more null
rdr needs to post more recently
boat man doesn't read, but he still responds, which sets off massive scumdar for me

Overall everything makes sense to me if being read as a mafia Durga game where her main priority is to survive alongside pals instead of actually scumhunting.

Re: M72 - “Echoes of Evelyn” - Game Thread [HIDDEN]
I am permitted to have doubts rather than pick one target at a time and not rest until I've blown their brains out. My initial case on celaph wasn't particularly strong, and he was milquetoast enough D2 that it neither strengthened nor weakened. I am not claiming to be responsible for his demise (that would be ludicrous): But I started the wagon and kept it alive through the whole day (despite all the opportunities to jump off), and then happened to have the misfortune of being convinced to leave (by you) right before people finally decided to actually get him after all.
