How do people generally feel about DemonRHK. Who would vote for him today?

DemonRHK was my preferred wagon Day 2, and he has not done anything that has changed my view.

That said, he went after Yavuz pretty hard on Day 1 in a way that seems unlikely to be bussing. So, I doubt that Yavuz and DemonRHK are scum together.

I think the Yavuz flip may tell us something about DemonRHK, or else the DemonRHK flip may tell us something about Yavuz.

I could go either way.

This post makes me uncomfortable.

Screw it. ##vote yavuzovic, ##end

I don't think I will be able to convince enough people to go for Ike. Demon hasn't moved my needle in terms of alignment, so I don't think he is better over yavu or Ike.

Why not? You haven't even tried? You haven't even been on Ike! 3 of us are already on him.

##vote DemonRHK

I'm focused on pages 13-14. Yavuz makes his slip. He gets called on it. DemonRHK kind of picks it back up with this:
yavu had a slip in one of his posts (talking about we in reference to scum), and for that I'm on a [][]Vote Yavu.
Then he defended the read with this:
Talking about town as a we is fine. But this is specifically after referencing scum as 'scum is OP'. The statement turns into "Consensus says scum is strong, Balki says scum aren't strong. We try to make scum look weak"

It's worded as such that it seems Yavu is strong trying to make himself weak, as if scum, and maybe linking himself to Balki (As in he knows he and Balki are teammates, the collective we including him even?)
Somebody smart tell me if Yavuz and DemonRHK can both be scum. Does that look like bussing?

Stop ending, there is lots to discuss.

Ghug, you said you wanted a real day, you might be getting it - why don't you unend and engage in something

Picking up on a slip that isn't actually a slip is exactly the sort of thing I expect from scum reading a buddy.

When I first read the initial post from DemonRHK, it struck me as potentially being Scum DemonRHK jumping on a convenient wagon, as the scumslip had already been pointed out and it seemed like it would be a "path of least resistance" place to park a vote.

That is why it does not seem like a bus vote to me. I felt like it put Yavuz in a bit of danger at a time when Yavuz was already under some pressure. It felt like an impactful time to make a Yavuz vote.

So if DemonRHK is scum, I feel like Yavuz is likely town.

Similarly, if Yavuz is scum, I feel like DemonRHK is likely town.

Go read the actual pages. Not just the ISOs. My feeling in thread was that the DemonRHK vote put yavuz in danger in a way I would not expect from a scumbuddy.

I don't have to convince you. A scum would do the same, like a town would do. I only want you to read me carefully and see that I'm genuine.

If you think a teammate has slipped, you treat them as lost and try to get cred for catching them. Scum are more likely to see a slip as damning, because they have the bias of knowing the slipper is scum.

8 others were on yavu. I also don't think yavu is clear in any way, so I'll settle for this reveal and we'll go from there.
