The game just started much sooner than I was prepped for.

Yeah i felt the same.

No problem Sultan. You want to explain why you think Chris is scum over some of the other candidates or is this just posturing to show that youre not scared to call him out despite his rep.

Safety chain?

You mean lynch order?

I mean sultan was protecting Ben Ben was protecting hb

Sultan has strong reads, generally. I think hes worth listening to.
---

A replace is a replace, but I feel like that call could/should have been made much earlier. Eh whatever. I'm still gonna be harsh on the replacement.....unless it's MI or Scare >_>
---

Though Sultan has since said he simply missed my post about Ben so maybe I can ask a different question.
Do you believe both Ben and SBell defended hb because they both legit think hes town and others are wrong or do you think one of them is likely scum and trying to look good early. Im sure you can predict the follow up question.

4 on red that guy is cooked as hell

That thing on Ben and SBell seems to be predicated on you knowing Im Town, despite you putting me on your scum list. Is there something you want to tell us, 5tar?

SBell that reminds me I actually literally had that same thing about you defending Hb at the time but its on the notepad doc I was using at work and I forgot it. Thanks for the catch.

You're welcome.

Ulti can you explain why it was a BS reason in detail.

Also I would argue he cracked plenty. He pretty much immediately roleclaimed. What is cracking to you?
---

Yeah I get it I got you mad rar can we move on now.

I mean I don't think anyone would have a catastrophic breakdown with half the votes required to lynch with 24 hours to go left in day 1. Do you?

Except I said it was a case of IF you flipped town. Thats a huge if right now.

The thing is if you flip scum then Ben would just say oh thats why I was so flimsy in my defence. That and the fact that why wouldnt scum defend scum? Trust me I thought about this a lot earlier.

Thats why I was asking Chris would your flip change his opinion on Ben. I feel the problem wasnt necessarily the fact that Ben defended you it was the way he did it in a totally non-committal way. He hasnt really offered anything I value.

Do you think both Ben and SBell defended you out of the goodness of their town hearts?

Lopen posted...

I think it's interesting Luis that you'd call Sultan on being wishy washy and non-committal while at the same time calling him scum based on that based on a post voting on Chris of all people.

I mean I do think he's been wishy washy and non-committal I'm just not positive it's a scum thing right now as much as a lack of assertiveness and that post seems like a weird one to get on his case for since it takes some stones to go that way given Chris's general reception among the players at large currently.

I was voting for him for his behaviour before that pointing the finger at Chris. In hindsight the subsequent vote weakens my position somewhat, but I disagree that it isn't scummy. Non-committal suspicion, in conjunction with sounding out approval, with a reticence to actually vote until he feels like he absolutely has to is like, textbook scum traits.

It wasn't for no reason, it was a hilarious joke

Hi Scare! You've got a pit to dig out of alright
---

I feel like most people would only do that closer to the end of the day. Claiming a role with no issue whatsoever is about as much meltdown as you could expect there.

Also you didn't say why the argument on hb was bad.

the goodness of my heart had nothing to do with it. My heart is cold and black and tastes like anguish and pain

He claimed vanilla instead of villager.

That's not why most people were actually voting him though.

I fair to see how Corrik is obv Town. Sheeping like this in uncharacteristic of him. In Endgame scum chat, he was the only one of us who didnt want to lynch Han because he said he played badly, and wanted to lynch Cam instead. Thinking highly of other players isnt a normal behavior for him.

Actually this is totally consistent! I said that the people with reps never get a chance to play because people always kill them early and that it is dumb. We should let them play and allow them to destroy their overblown reps! I am giving Chris a platform to prove his worth as mighty town! Will he crash and burn or prove triumphant. Tune in next time ...!

htaeD posted...

And to make an aside about Corrik.
I just realized/remembered his gladiator role didnt force him to not talk if he didnt use it in the first 24 hours. (going by his role PM)
So on day1 he basically used it as an excuse to not have to post anything for 36 hours. (it was a longer day)

Compared to that, sheeping Chris is not that beneath a townCorrik.

Oh hold on. I can show you something!
---

RE: ROLE
So basically I am gonna be purposely afking for awhile, possibly the rest of the day. If I had used it, I would have on eaed (don't respond regarding that). But, it is a bad idea to use it on Day 1 for information purposes.

And everyone expects me to be super active and aggressive the entire day or I am scummy for laying low. But actual scum also uses me as a shield to hide also. So, I am giving myself an excuse to not play that way right now and to observe some stuff.

So, basically, don't replace me lol. I am not actually inactive.
---

No he has to double down on Chris to be town. Which I feel like over read 3 or 4 times this game. To the point where its become a null tell to me.
He changed his vote so hes scum.

I think Corrik is claiming miller
