It’s also kind of fascinating that assuming Smark was telling the truth about self-protecting, neither scum or the SK has even tried to shoot Jeff so far.

That’s note-worthy, though the latter was something I agreed with and is also informed by the fact Doddsy was scum. If we’re assigning value to Doddsy wanting to lynch PHEN0M, what do we do with CP wanting to lynch Doddsy? Pretty consistently, honestly.

The change in tenor is interesting, though. He definitely got more serious about the game at a certain point. And it’s not that that’s NAI, but it does give us a counterweight in that he’s actually provided something of value, whereas PHEN0M really hasn’t.

Maybe I’m overthinking it.

Did he? He had Doddsy as part of his poe but he never pushed that lynch at all. On the day of yesterday he essentially just said he’s happy to lynch any of the poe candidates as he thinks they’re all scum lol. In fact he only really brought up Doddsy at all in a “I had Doddsy in my poe the whole time and now everybody else does!” After I said I thought he was the best direction. Like I said earlier, the only time he asserted himself at all was when we had already decided to lynch Doddsy but weren’t enamoured by lethals entrance and he said we should still lynch Doddsy (which j don’t even think anybody was questioning)

as For the latter, it’s about what you expect lol. I’d expect CP to start coming into the game more at some point regardless of alignment, phenom is pretty inconsistent with that. If anything I’d say he probably would have made more of an effort to at least make it seem like he’s doing something as scum. Not that I’d read him town for that at all, but not providing much isn’t really a phenom scum tell

yeah that fascination will end tonight

 

[Poyser]

If we’re not super confident about that, I’d rather flip PHEN0M first, all else equal.

If we lynch town then the SK shoots a townie the game is pretty much out of our control

 

[Poyser]

I kind of want to be a mad cunt and lynch Lethal but thats probably crazy

Yeah like I said I don’t think it makes too much sense to do that. If he’s on his own as the last scum then we’ve got a mislynch to play with, if not then he’s got a partner we need to find regardless.

 

[Canadian Dragon]

the thing with cp is a toughy but i agree that "my reads have been good you blueberries" is nowhere close to an adequate defence

He only self protected one night iirc, he made it pretty obv he was gonna be protecting jeff last night.

and yeah, i dont really see the issue. n2 they obviously went after smark, but he outfoxed them. n3 they had no choice to try to blast him again because any other shot could be blocked and killing smark is the only way to kill me at this point. i dont really find anything overly odd about it, pretty standard stuff

 

[Poyser]

Yeah lol. It’s a bit of a toss up in truth but we’ve gotta go off something. CP has been pretty slimy in the way he’s framed things imo. He is slimy as town too tho so there’s that

tho he deffo seems more interested in defending himself than solving the game which I wouldn’t say is usually the case

vote doddsy

Sure if that's the wagon rn I haven't checked

I mean, you could say this was a vote park, but it was extremely unnecessary at the time.

 

[Poyser]

@CraigPelton what is your lynch order preference and why?

Huh? I want us to wagon Doddsy because he’ll presumably come on to defend himself.

Nom probably won’t. So cop him.

tbh I think they're all scum and don't care

Then follow on Doddsy why not

Lynch Doddsy, he might have actually engage his wagon. Nom probably won’t. Just cop him.

vote doddsy

Sure if that's the wagon rn I haven't checked

No because Blaine and phenom haven't done anything and Doddsy hasn't done anything to make me think he's town nor does he look town from say tweets posts

why not include the context lol, pretty obv which way we were going at the time

Yeah, I guess it's only been two phases.

To be clear, this isn't about you. Just thinking about the shots and what they mean.

fair nuff

I mean, not really...?

He was the second vote on Doddsy. Just because you were pushing the Doddsy wagon doesn't mean our direction was actually decided.

Shit, we had five votes on Doddsy and our direction still wasn't entirely decided.
