With the proviso that we can change from Andre if he argues his case well enough like he seems to want to do.
I think the rest of us seem fairly well caught up and should be close to three picks.
Most of us have said them, but we have not put it into a vote now or shut up context.
Many have said me but not voted me. Many have said Andre but not voted Andre.
Many have said Mantis but not voted you.
Let get it out in the open and as plain and simple as we can get it.
I only really have Urist as a player I would vote for and not feel like I am more often than not helping to lynch Town. I just see too many signs pointing his way and canāt seem to look past them. I think Mantis is also a possibility, but less so (and canāt really make a convincing case in my head as to why). I Town Read Judge most strongly, and have MS, Cats and Pyx as a second tier of Town (though Cats a nudge above MS and Pyx, and Pyx above MS). I have really liked Pyxās contributions and posts lately, and so do not really want to vote for him either. I could vote MS too if it came to it I guess, but would be holding my nose down and closing my eyes while doing so.
(I would still recommend isoāing Andres for yourself @anyone. Itās not that long. And I plucked what I thought was relevant. No way I was going to analyze everything.
Anywayā¦
Iāve always thought this was awkward, each time I look at it
-Andres asks if Nanook will be a lurker
-skitters has questions for Andres, he ātacklesā them
-votes Cats, shows suspicion there for a bit
More between him and skitter
and moreā¦
moving on to MS
positive on Nanook
negative on Nanook
this sounds towny
-has quite a bit of back and forth with Screen (but has voted ActionDan previously)
-I say this to Andres: Andres looks pretty okay. But I wasnāt a huge fan of the quick turn around on Screen after Nanook pointed out to him that thing about applying his own philosophy on him. It made me wonder if Andres became self conscious/ self aware that his vote on Screen looked potentially bad.
votes MS
bit of waffling on Nanook (this isnāt actually the 1st time that he puts Nanook as scummy, and says that maybe heās playing to his scum meta, but then says he might also just be town

scum in Urist or Screenplay
(at this point, if Andres is the last scum, all he needs to do is push suspicion on other people). So thereās not too much of a point looking into what he says too much).
Some conclusions:
-he had quite a bit of back and forth with skitter; but then skitter replaced out. Wasnāt accusatory towards skitter though
-lots of shading on Nanook, but no vote there
-lots of analysing of Nanookās posts (ie looking solvey there)
-he did have an initial vote on cabd day 1 though, moved to smilodon
-waffling between MS and cabd - starts on MS, moves to cabd
-but before moving to cabd had pyx and Screen as questionable.
-votes screen 3922

Essentially would vote for Pyx, Urist, myself
I am wondering if Andres, instead of pushing too hard on anyone (like he did in flappers - I looked at that game last week or so, and he pushed quite hard on others) - is instead taking more of a back seat and waiting for town to eat each other alive. I know he is busy with real life though. But, there is that sense that that could be whatās happening. As said before, there are a lot of players that look like we are agonizing over the game.
MY INTENTION IS TO VOTE ANDRES
There are things that other people have done that just stick out a lot and seem like scum canāt do that. Thatās not to say that I think Andres is for sure scum. But, I think a lot of analyzing can still be done as scum.
Cats for instance, went hard against Nanook day 1. Really hard. Then there was the whole PUT UP OR SHUT UP CABD, along with a solid vote on him.
Judge has pretty much wanted out of this game, and has been vocal about it! Not even in a bad way - but her agony is kind of palpable.
Urist said he would eat 1000 lunches/lynches if Screen was town. You just donāt do that kind of push, AT THIS POINT IN THE GAME, and risk it all, based on wanting the doc out. That and him sticking out for MS, when it was totally unnecessary. I also think it would have been idiotic for him and Nanook scum to both switch the lynch from cabd to smilodon. Co-ordinatting in the thread like that? I canāt imagine he would be that reckless.
MS, I really thought was scum, but Iām tending to believe him when he says things like āthis game has been the hardest, on mafia451ā He looks like heās in agony too :s
Pyx, I brought him up already in this post
Iām thinking he is town. But he would be my 2nd go to lynch.
