A speed lynch would be risky this early. Multiple scum and or mostly town being lynched seems most likely.

Jen proceeds to vote me of all the other options available in the game after that post. I don't think it's scummy, just isn't really a "makes sense" sorta post. If Jed went back and looked, this was when I voted, right. It was 2-1-1-1-0 for a while, I think, then Herm voted Tib, like 15 min later Jamie did, then like 15 min after that I did. So at that point it's establishing for sure, more or less, a Tib vote out. This was posted after my vote: Quote Day 1 Vote Count: TiB (5/20) - Badger, Lamp, Herm, jamie, Stargate Brian (1/20) - Steph Ahoda (1/20) - Farlig Curtis (1/20) - Ahoda Rodney (0/20) - Lamp Day 1 KEVIN Count: Rose (11) - Rodney, JJ, Curtis, Steph, Badger, Herm, Kat, Sami, Jed, im317, jamie With 20 alive, it takes 11 to hammer. Deadline for the Day 1 vote is Tuesday 7/11 at 8.00 PM EST. It kinda invalidates Jed's whole argument for that post he made. But then him voting for me right after saying that feels like he just didn't go back and look at how that vote formed at all.

The start was more of why I didn't find Steph's vote timing suspicious, but then the post morphed into my general thoughts on the game. Once it gets to Steph and it's already 6-1-*, voting for somebody else just makes it 6-2-*. Like, TiB is almost certainly going home at that point no matter what.

Stargate's vote was at 4-1-*, but voting for one of the others makes it 4-2-*, which could sway the tide (a moderate chance). It feels like one could still fight it at that point, if they were inclined (but I get not being inclined because TiB was inactive) . But I think there's a reasonable difference between a 4-1 and a 6-1 situation.

But yeah, my vote for Stargate isn't really based on the timing, it's more based on general vibes. That's kind of what I meant by "Here's my problem", because the people who voted earlier would be more suspicious based on timing, but I get better vibes from Herm and Jamie, so what to do? Basically, I think Stargate's timing neither implicates or clears them (but I find the argument for Steph's timing implying scum flawed). I don't really love any of the options, but I'd rather pick than leave it to everyone.

Anyways, the vote is like 2-1-1-1-1- right now or something. If y'all start coalescing around other options in the next hour or so, I'll consider changing, but otherwise I'm going to trivia night.

Hi I am just getting home from work and am making dinner. Will post my thoughts soon.

Would love Sami thoughts

Anyone care for buttered noodles?

Oh no I just ruined them

I went to grab pepper and it was cinnamon :sob:

Cinnamon noodle kugel it is!

If Lamps don't start to disappear when scum start piling up, I'll slide him into the townpool. If my memory is correct, Lamps starts to do badly as scum when his team does badly. That's def his meta afaik. Steph's town reads are my scum reads and her scum reads are my town reads. Only person we agree to be scum is Stargate, so make of that what you will. I have barely played with her in these games so I don't know her town or scum meta. Most confusing thing for me is placing Rose as top town since she has barely participated.

The last two games I was scum, and the scum team happened to do poorly from the beginning yeah. But in fact I always play super bad when scum and don’t know how to scum hunt all of a sudden. Even considered not playing at all anymore because it’s annoying for my team mates when one of them is just silent af.

I haven't had noodles for ages.

I can switch from Curtis to make the vote less over the place. Preferring Brian or Reaper as the alternatives.

I don’t like the stargate “train”. Farlig could go either way but not feeling that vote either.

Not taking any votes into account, this is how you all read to me.

Why Reaper over Rose and Jamie?
