Tom was the first person to vote damo. There's a part of me that still thinks he was doing a similar distancing play to what I think Chaqa did, because I think he could have known that his reason for scumreading damo was weak and people would ignore it, and he also got off damo's wagon once I joined it. But, he really defended his case against damo. If he didn't want it to stick, he could have just said it was a gut read and I don't think damo would have gotten as much pressure. He'd been strongly townreading xorxes so when he moved off summit's wagon it would have been extremely suspicious for him to vote xorxes, so Tom probably wouldn't have voted for xorxes regardless of his allignment. BUT, his vote for damo put him ahead of worcej, who was tied with damo 2-2 at the time. I think that if Tom were scum he could have just as easily made worcej the competing wagon rather than damo.
I disagree that Tom's push on damo could have been made because others were scumreading him. Tom started the wagon and brought a lot of attention to damo. I'm not willing to completely townclear Tom based on this, but Tom's D1 votes combined with the rest of his play cause me to strongly lean towards town!Tom.
Although, then there was this post:
Which made me think he could be pocketing me. If Tom is scum who knows I'm town, then making the argument that I'm almost certainly town because I did a similar thing to what he did could be a trick to get me to see him as towny in return... so I'm not completely convinced, but I really think the chances of Tom being scum over Bunny or Vecna are very low.Tom Bombadil wrote: ↑Tue May 26, 2020 9:34 pmGood job guys. There is hope. In my eyes this nearly townclears kgray because of D1
