I feel like we're being messed with here. Sexdoll signs up to the forum Tuesday, his first ever post is offering himself up as a replacement in this game.

Then we get this whole charade? WhySoMuch "knows" Sexdoll from some other site, they have this nice little byplay - oh he's actually younguns there lol lol, heyya babe, and of course Sexdoll knows him and he is likely a villager based on his experience with him.

Isn't that sweet, the internet suddenly seems like such a small happy place, where two people who played something similar on another site manage to not only end up in the same game on this site, but have all this experience playing together.

I think it's one of two things.
1). They are the same person and totally fucking with us. This was my first impression based on Sexdolls posts.
2). They are friends who are communicating out of band and acting like they aren't.

I don't like it at all.

Marv, I'm going to spend the next bit going over your case on Golden. It read good the first time but there were a few things I wanted to look at closer. Don't you think it's weird that WhySoMuch has dropped his number 1 scum read on Golden? His reason initially was that he didn't think anyone would support it, so now you've made a good case, why the hell isn't he even pushing it?

Agreeably, Golden's concise and clear posting is indicative of him being clever/calculated. But does this really mean that he's a mastermind mafia as well? If the mafia had intentionally planned for veriat to be bussed from the start, and they were all clear about this, then it makes sense that the mafia wouldn't be the last vote (more likely the first vote). But this is making many assumptions about Golden, and the mafia. This leads me to wonder things like, what if Veriat opted-out mid-day1 and Golden decided he'd rather be on the bandwagon when he flips then off? Sure, he didn't get definitive credit for the veriat lynch, but what if he was just trying to get (at least some) town credibility in general? What if he was just annoyed at veriat, and as the opportunity presented itself, he just decided to boot him?

I'll re-read the case against Golden, Jailbreaker's response/apology, and try looking at WSM again; but I think Marv's case against Golden is the best lead right now. This replacement stuff is really confusing reads though (not directed at you specifically sexdoll, but as there have been two replacements, it's annoying.)

Also, when ppl say stuff like, x,y and z are my top scum reads atm, then proceed to push z over x, that doesn't mean theyre complacent to lynch whoever or that they're contradicting themselves by not pushing x super hard. It just shows a slight lack of confidence in all of the reads, which is totally normal. This is a game of vague information.

If there is ever a plan for scum to bus each other, they're going to make sure that they are the ones who get credit for lynching their bro. They do this by pushing them hard and leading the lynch. If a strategy was involved, tacking on was not part of it.

I'm making assumptions because of my experience and my intuition. I like to think I'm a pretty good judge of character

One thing I thought about yesterday, was how Golden opted out the moment the pressure really came on, i.e, 40 minutes after Marv states:


40 minutes later, Golden posts that he's pulling out of the game. That's one way to avoid the pressure on you and meaning you don't have to answer a case I suppose.

the best way to determine ppls roles is to try to find their motivations and thought processes. There are situations where if you put yourself in the shoes of the scum, you will see that there is a clear and easy decision for them to make in certain circumstances. The assumption that I'm making is that scum tend to think more about how their interactions/cases/votes will make them look to the townspeople. This is a perfectly reasonable assumption. Once this assumption is made, the rest of what I said about bussing is just common sense

Well, we obviously need to keep moving forward, and Golden/SexDoll are probably the best vote right now. As much as I hate easy lynches, I don't see any other option right now.

## Vote: SexDoll
