This was a really cool setup. I think the Violina/Tribal Council aspect definitely added a sense of RNG that I can see people being upset about/not wanting every game, but I don't think it had a major influence on the outcome. Dresden/Mankind was definitely favorable for scum, but most of that is because Mankind built up so much goodwill with the player base that Dresden looked scummy in comparison. Decent chance I die that phase if not for that, but I also think Mankind/Harry Potter would have pulled it off past that point.

Still, great work, and the anon games are always a little extra fun since you don't immediately know who everyone is.

God damn

Still totally town though

Can we talk a out how Sirius joked about the SK becoming kingmaker and now the SK has literally become the King, who is still ultimately a kingmaker

Sorry y'all, I thought Sirius was the SK

I don't know what scum did to me. I don't know if I should expect a bomb or what.

Harry's flip sucks, but I didn't get any iffy vibes from Mankind last phase so was probably just a lose-lose situation.

Seth Rollins honestly looked the worst to me, but it also seems obvious. Harry Potter's hammer kinda raised my eyebrow even though otherwise they were pretty towny yesterday.

I still don't know why Sirius would open wolf claim in their position and be the one to call out Glinda after being resurrected.

But that just leaves Cody and Jade and that seems too easy if all of scum and the SK are in Cody, Jade, Rollins.

On one hand, I'm thankful for not being poisoned.

On the other, looks like we're still getting two extra deaths and unless at least one of them is scum, we're fucked

For the record, there is one more serum.

Inb4 no one dies to poison

The thought crossed my mind

Harry Potter gaining some points for also calling out Seth's vote and people who try to push to L-1

Or maybe I'm just mad the last phase ended early again

Seth Rollins said:

Good advice.

Will try and do that when I have the time.

Vote: Mankind

Dresden appears more town to me and we have to vote someone so sorry.

Have a nice day anyway!

This progression is oof. Dresden urges people not to quick hammer and then Seth puts Mankind at L-1 a couple posts later

Jade Cargill said:

As for the two voting options we're left with, Harry has obviously been more active but again with this playerbase that doesn't mean anything. However, I'd imagine Mankind would have had something to contribute with his night action results, but I cannot recall him making any pushes yet so he might be scum coasting along.

Mankind was one of the main voices against Rhea

Seth Rollins said:

Yeah I would agree if we had the choice.

Honestly this is Sophie’s choice a bit here. On the one hand I like Mankind’s contribution but Dresden hinted of an advantageous role. Now this has been used as a scum fake claim in past games but think he might be on the level.

This rings hollow

9. Sirius Black

Of these, ime quick to put Merlin and Mankind into townreads. Merlin is virtually mech cleared and Mankind has been putting in a lot of effort that not only feels genuine, but paired with the prolonged push on Rhea, feels like it comes from town motivation.

If I take off my barbwire tinfoil cap, Sirius is probably just town for pushing Glinda right after being revived. I can't forget that they defended Rhea and pushed hard for town kills(Palp, Mick), but getting the Mick flip and resorting to wolf claiming is a hell of a strategy if scum. Can't write him off, but probably just clean.

3. Harry Dresden
4. Harry Potter
5. Jade Cargill
8. Seth Rollins

Call me crazy, but I kind of just think one of Cody/Jade is just probably town off playstyle, and the other could easily be SK. Don't get strong vibes to kill, but down to the wire we can't just dismiss them for having questionable playstyles. But still, probably just max 1 scum between the two.

I'd have to check Harry's cred. Off memory he's talked the talk, but not sure he's done much to disrupt scum.

I feel like I should have more thoughts on Seth Rollins but I don't so I'll need to figure that out.

And then Harry Dresden. Similar to Potter, I think he's talked the talk, but particularly in the last phase, his actions seem more beneficial to scum with the way he pushed for the SK to get chopped first and was sort of soft defending Rhea without outright going to bat for them. Trying to throw my name in the mix to potentially shade me doesn't help.

This is where my deranged head is at off the cuff. Gonna catch up now.
