The best thing you can do Espi is not talk now until the final 24 hours of Day 3.

Seriously, if you're town, resist the urge to interact with the thread. We need the space to analyse others.

Right now Maniac is definitely a concern for me -- he was like a rent-a-vote today, switching between all 3 of wjessop, Jeff and Espi.

Seriously Espi, take a break from the thread. No one should be lynching Espi on Day 3, at least they'd be 2 other scum to lynch.

Does everyone concur that i should not talk tonight

Until the last half of Day 3.
Me too, frankly.
Others need to step up.

No.

We can press lurkers without lurking ourselves.

I think bo is scum.

the only one I'm sure of as town right now is DeathLlama; I'm going to reread the whole thread.

Mafua will obviously keep me and Espi alive.

No I don't agree Espi. We should always lynch #1 scum read, it's BS for anyone to say x is 100%scum now let's fine #2. Especially as Wjessop has been certain of other people being scum already this game and been proved wrong.

Just in case you are night killed, we also need your final thoughts.

There's no way Espi will be night killed.

He's so nicely postponed for Day 3 lynch.

Ah, Day 3 would be so nice to have some cop scans.

I have packing to do tonight and tomorrow morning, but after i will have time to post before eon. I will do an analysis on the votes on me, who stayed on and who switched. Right now maniac is my top scum pick, we havent been able to kill him yet. I raised concerns about yoyo earlier. I am really worried about how wjessop is acting now and i dont get how bo has made so many mistakes. Vecna, guak and dl have done shit so far in my mind.

Eod was on d1. Maniac yoyo and wjessop voted on the same wagon then to
ND (7): ghug, wjessop, Espi, Vecna, Yoyoyozo, Maniac, DeathLlama8
Espi (2): guak, Jeff Kuta
Maniac (1): bo_sox48
wjessop (1): ND

Compare to
Jeff Kuta (5): DeathLlama8, wjessop, Espi, Yoyoyozo, Maniac
Espi (3): guak, bo_sox48, Jeff Kuta
Maniac (1): Vecna

Hm. Of the 4 non-ND voters, 2 have flipped town, leaving guak and bo.

Bo has shot high up in my scum reading.

@Espi: so both times, bo places himself to not be on the lynch.

I think guak believed Espi would be lynched tonight.

Bo HAS to be scum.

Yoyo, does your document have hour and minute timestamps?

The moment I stop full-on townreading you, you scumread me? Jesus, I hope you're mafia if you want town to lose this game so badly.

Also, considering I was not only away around the deadline but away for the entire duration of ND's wagon, I don't know how you can judge my lack of attention to it. I did not even see it until after it was over.

You haven't mentioned anything about a change in your read on me.
Desperate attempt, Bo.

EXPLAIN YOUR VOTES!

Wjessop wants me silent and bo and maniac want me to talk...

@wj: why did you switch after that very convincing argument? I mean killing Espi could had potentially gotten us two scum in a single shot

"I'm disappointed that you saved Espi twice in a row, wjessop."

This is me implying suspicion of you.

I voted for Maniac D1 because of the reasons I presented them - he coached, he bussed, and he lurked. I voted for him throughout day 2 for similar reasons, and then caught him hedging and lying in his reads. I voted for Espi because I thought he slipped - I miscounted, thinking D2 was MYLO, and that a mislynch ended the game. If it were, the line I quoted on Espi would have been a scumslip, but it was my error.

Beyond those two, the only people I have generally been suspicious of are Yoyo and DL, the former because of his connections with Maniac and the latter because he seems to be walking the line of lurking and not, saying just enough to sneak by, though I remember thinking that I saw something that towncleared him earlier. I forget what it was. It wasn't him pointing out meme's soft, it was something else.

Now, since I'm done wasting my time with you and your caps lock, explain your own votes.

I would add that my suspicion of guak and Vecna increases the more they lurk, because, as I have been saying, there is typically at least one lurking scum. I expect there to be more than one now that we will be in LYLO. I am also getting weird vibes from wjessop but I would like to see where this conversation goes before I get into that.

@bo @guak

I've already explained why I, perhaps wrongly, switched my vote. You're right, we should have just dealt with the Espi issue.
"
@Maniac:
1. Jeff and Espi were my 2 top scum reads, I was voting either of them.
2. I didn't like the way guak, Maniac and Jeff all came online in the last hour and plonked votes on Espi -- explanations from all of them are needed.
3. Jeff's vote without any explanation seemed acummy.
4. Nervous with the vote, I switched to Jeff.
5. It filled up just as fast so it suggests to me that maybe both are inno.

Maniac also shifted his vote to Espi -- why did you not include yourself as well?"

Purely based on meta voting patterns -- I'd say bo is moving up in likelihood of being scum.

Explain D1. Do so without blaming ND - his actions, or lack thereof, when it comes to his claim are irrelevant. What is relevant is how attention shifted, like magic, from Espi to him, and how you followed ghug even though all ghug had was a gut read on him based on whether or not ND scumread him.

Is this you trying to be bullish and shift the little bit of attention I've placed on you?

You've never stuck around so long before.
