I predict a lot of vote movement in the last half hour.
Yeah, especially as lurkers return.

Also, why Dip?

Bozo - you've posted a lot but haven't voted for anyone or even really pointed fingers at anyone. Who do you suspect right now?
I don't have any strong scum reads, but there are probably mafia hiding in the low posters. Chaqa has not met the posting requirement, but without any additional information, I think claiming to have a potato is more likely to be done by town. I think DiplomacyandWarfare and Jamie are the other 2 who have claimed to have potatoes.

I thought ND's vote for you was questionable, maybe because I have often been accused of "hiding in mechanics".

##VOTE ND

I Don't see Dream and Bo as paired with how Dream treated Bo's joke and pointed to Bo for support. Do you disagree with this assessment?
You’d have to link what you’re talking about, I’m not quite sure what you’re referring to here

This is absolute fucking dogshit lmao
Me voting worcej is dogshit, or me unvoting is dogshit? Weren't you the one who said we should vote lurkers, and didn't you vote for Red just two posts before this?
It's dogshit when you vote worcej because he hasn't posted (and will be modkilled if he doesn't), then upon reading ONE post of his you unvote. The point of pushing on lurkers is to pressure them to play the game, not make one post and then say oh you're good now, carry on.
Agree.

The trend toward only looking into and voting for high volume posters and ignoring lurkers even when half the roster is barely contributing if they are even meeting minimum requirements has me just about ready to townread everyone who is actually trying
yeh, I'm kinda guilty of that too. Hadn't fully recovered and was just mostly in bed yesterday when I came home, and in the morning my PC was down due to some uncalled update, so could only check in now, really.

So, anything you'd want to know?
Other than why you happened to show up and play when there was a wagon growing on you and more importantly why the people who were wagoning you magically decided you were all clear now when you showed up, no
As one of said voters: In contrast to Worcej, Kak showed up and put effort into catching up on a significant portion of D1 and provided quite a lot of content.

Kak claims not to be aware of the pressure votes on him which is interesting.

Kak doesn't post for 32 hours, and then as soon as there are two votes on Kak, bing, he appears in a flash.
Yeah, Jamie gets it.

yeah, took a bit to read all that I've missed. Brain still a bit mushy, but I guess that's the best state in to answer questions, so if you have any, shoot them at me.

from all I've seen, I don't like ND's vote there so ##vote ND

while I concur with the thought that Dream is a little less obvious town as last game, I don't see anything eyecatching that would point to mafia on Dream; there were some people that talked way much mech, curious that ND didn't go for them, instead for a new player that is now in the lead (if I'm not wrong?) of the wagons. That's also a very usual place where mafia likes to pile on

this brings me to bozo and damo, which I'm not sure how to read here. Damo has corrected his numbers, but only after bozo posted his, and we haven't seen either maths. In the end they both kinda agreed to the same numbers (I still want to know how they get to lower than 25% on D2) so either both are mafia or those numbers are solid? I think?

I haven't noticed any correlation between them (well except the numbers) so I guess they aren't paired?
It is obvious through damo's iterations that he was doing the same thing I was, but had some errors somewhere. I just added the probabilities of each of the 7 potatoes exploding in each phase. The probability of an explosion is highest on N7, when the last potato activates (although there is less than 1% chance that the N1 potato is still around).
Bozo do you have any townreads, and do you have any scumreads?

Yes but that isn't the point of the quoted post if you meant that.

Why is that "the question"?
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them: to die, to sleep?

Personally I do not get the impression that DreamTrawler was trying to fake a township there.

see you at EoD (or not)!
Ok this is a bit scummy.

On page 10 you accused me and Bunny of being scum partners. So this was already your read, all the way back 18 pages ago. Now you are purporting to have done new "analysis" which just indicates confirmation bias of your early, shitty, read, which you are trying to pass off as some new insight.
I see there has been no response to this.
