outliers - Slamroot, Harubear, poofbunnies

i really wish sqrt would have explained his vote on IAmExO before instead of just saying "they're scum"

bunnies bothers me because i feel that her case on Chairman Koshi is weak, and the arguments for why Slamroot were town weren't good either (though obviously there must have been some merit to them because it was a ML). honestly the reason why i find her more suspicious now is because out of everyone somehow she's the only one who seemed to know it was an incoming ML.
put more clearly, in the wise words of wherebugsgo:

You're not scum because you're right. You're scum because you were right when no one else was.

i think this used to be someone's sig lol
and indeed you can see this is the case: 7 people, an overwhelming majority voted on Slamroot.

harubear - feeling town. i know slenderman had a thing on this team and honestly the contradiction stuff does bother me. but i can see the posts from a town perspective... or at least your filters make sense to me.

so that leaves us the main wagon.

currently it's hard for me to say how many people honestly sheeped the case on Slamroot versus scum bandwagoning a ML. marvderg i would like to hear more from.
i'd like to hear from palmar why he figured that it would be a ML.

Back now and caught up

Bunnies is mafia. Her cases before the flip were a little too interesting.

I'd like to address a few thoughts expressed in the thread briefly:

1) "Slam tries to be unreadable so idk.": Don't know much about Slam's meta, but honestly when have you had someone spam thread like Slam has and not been mafia. Also you have the other half, which also has played scummy.

2) "Not sure about Cabernet being mafia because no counter-bus.": Assuming Cabernet is mafia (which is super-likely), you only have one other scum team. So it's very possible said other team isn't active about it. It's very possible said team is bussing. But it's also possible they've tried and there's no traction. Possible since not everyone is on Cabernet atm... This is a very WIFOM arguement tbh.

3) "Cabernet has good chance of being mafia, but I dislike person XYZ more.": Cabernet is set to be lynched today, and for good reason. I've seen pretty much no one say they feel good about Cabernet, like they are giving townie vibes. You should lynch them because even if you have a shadow of a doubt, they have literally said they've given up. How do you expect to get a better read at them should they stay alive til LYLO?

To those of you who haven't consolidated on Cabernet yet:

Vote Team Cabernet. Show them your grapes of wrath.

ugh

Maybe I drop haru/glowing for now, not sure. I agree with what eden said that it was too ridiculous to be scum when haru said his "i don't want to lynch given up scum, i want to lynch actual scum". kinda unbelievable.

also haru berating mderg made me rage, which leans somewhat town on haru as well.

Robik you're typically not terrible bunnies told me about how slam/sqrt basically both conceded so hard not to vote them.(Even though everything I've heard about slam is that he loves playing scum and I find it hard to imagine him just straight up conceding a game as scum I haven't read in the thread where he did yet.) I'm more curious what you think about the Palmar/Marv/Rayn folks in the game (really excited rayn is back tbh) I read the part where you basically auto confirmed rayn off one post. Still like that read? The interactions that were had between like pages 24-29 (this is the way back machine as I read slow) between Marv/Palmar especially were weird. I feel like one if not both is mafia. I need to read the rest of the thread obviously but I'm curious about your reads on them. (If you've already given them just link the posts for faster viewing if you would be so kind)

I hope Poof has explained this between this post and the end of the thread, or it sure does look awfully shit-flingy.
