Pressure? yes. Policy? yes. Serious? yes. Very scummy post. You're actually saying that you may sit on your vote regardless of what happens in the thread? Basically giving yourself an built-in excuse to make your vote not matter (and unable to be analyzed) if slam isn't one of the leading wagons? Ice is static, water flows, and fire grows, moves, and spreads. Are you quoting avatar? No. Ice- Ice is not our friend. Ice is too cold. We seek warmth, indeed I seek the desert on this voyage.

My "townie on townie day 1 shitstorm" sense is tingling.
That speaking, oddly enough it does encourage a Xatalos lynch Whom do you feel are townies from this and why? It hasn't really been one on one. It's been HF and Xatalos against Cora, and myself, Alakaslam and you against Xatalos. If you feel it's townie on townie, then you'd think Xatalos was town. So far I think I am townie, I haven't really thought past that. I just don't think this day 1 attitude is gonna be very productive. The whole entire Xatalos suspicion does require a meta read on Xatalos to see if he is brilliant enough to try for the plan on day 1, or does he just play like this. I just skimmed through the filter he linked and I don't think it looks like the start of this game at all. He's far more aggressive here. What were you trying to say exactly with your initial post if you didn't mean to give anyone a town read but yourself? I'm confused. I don't think a plan other than "starting shit" is required for scum. That's always a good thing. In my opinion natural scum play is to stay low, especially on day 1, the town tends to self destruct anyways day 1. This whole entire "starting shit" strat is actually pretty good, even though it is counterintuitive to the idea of trying to not draw attention. Thus I assumed this strat is not very obvious, especially since I personally never considered it. This is all pure speculation. Something more grounded is that Xatalos is definably acting very different from before, and in my eyes less of a townie I don't feel like Xatalos put himself in the spotlight as much as trying to put others in the spotlight. Corazon put himself in the spotlight without any scum gain. When you look at his post from a scum point of view, it doesn't make sense for them to make it. I can see a scum agenda behind Xatalos' posts. That said, I do like his view on my pressure on him in that it was nuanced rather than trying to score town points. The rest of the day should provide more information.

No reason to draw attention to yourself like that as scum. Given you quoted me I take it you'd like a response from me? I don't find Corazon scummy at this point in time because he drew attention to himself without any scum benefit. The amount of aggression on Cora for that post was completely unwarranted but that definitely isn't worthy of a town read. Corazon didn't put do anything to put himself out there. He was probably busy so he said in his post that he was going to be busy, which means nothing.

Assume I am worth trusting when I say that you need to chill. Your passions are cute but will not help town win. On the contrary they will damage town atmosphere. Allow others to play the game. Allow yourself to play.
Could you explain how you eliminated myself, bumatlarge, jarjar and 'roni from possible lynches for the day when none of us had posted?
I'm aware that I am the most town player to have ever existed as according to my meta posting more than one sentence in the game makes me town. That isn't the point though. I couldn't be the most town before posting so where did I go as a lynch option. Why are you so sure that purple/Xat/HF must be the only possible lynches for the day?
Alakslam: I'm ignoring your short lived vote on me, if that the right thing to do? What would the kingfisher king think of you for your sacrilegious attack against the wanderer?

How do you have a town read on kush? Explanation please.

Its somewhat convoluted but the basics are as follows: 1) kush is acting in such a way which reduces his thread power later in the game 2) a potential late game scum player wants some power 3) if kush is scum he is a potential late game scum player 4) kush is not scum playing for the late game 5) kush is not scum playing for the early game 6) nothing kush does benefits him if he is scum 7) kush is town

Basically there is no way you can have a town read on kush and have it be meaningful or based on solid analysis, or any analysis at all.

Yes I am. I'm noticing that I disagree with you. A town player doesn't usually think about pushing a lynch in late game, the second point, because a town player is sure they they will be pushing a scum lynch and being right is all a town player needs. Thread influence is second fiddle to accurate reads. People like kush believe this. Nothing kush does benefits him as town seems to be true in his town games. His scum games have direction and pride. Kush has no pride here.

Have you even read the game? Vig's are guarenteed in the setup and it's not "directing" vig shots. Threat of vig shot = threat of dying and if they are town they will stop trolling/step it up as I assume people enter this game to win. I think you're mistaking direction with pressure.

not to mention that in TL Noire before kush got replaced out he was playing this lurky playstyle thing and his slot was scum

You are correct, at least one Vigi does exist. My mistake. I misread [UoN]'s post as indicating that the roles were merely possible not a given. On seeing your post I reread his filter to refute you. Turns out you had it right. My B.

What I am saying is that you have provided justification that kush is town and the entire reasoning that you provided can be used to justify both a town and a scum kush, thus, your justification is flawed and every reason you stated for kush to be town is in fact a null tell.

Like these high quality posts which were all attempts at looking like he was doing something. And not at all similar to how he has been posting this game?

No in fact it cannot suggest a town or scum kush. The facts of the game thus far have one good interpretation and one sup optimal interpretation which you are using to suggest my read is invalid. You are ignoring the non-trivial nature of the different ways scum and town think about the game. Scum try to justify lynches, often by gaining thread presence. Town do not.
So far you have fought Corazon's scum case on Xatalos and my town case on Kush and yet you have not provided reads on either of those players. You have chosen to tear down cases and build up none of your own. Sit back on those heavy haunches of yours and remember that you have to make reads as well as talk shit.

Noire was before ##. In Noire he was still angry. During the course of the ## game he took a step back and posts much more docile now.
