Well, this is unexpected. Frankly, I thought we would face something completely different here, not DS/Chess both claiming to be poisoned. Well, at least we can be certain that one of them is Scum.
@Urist, why are you leaning DS? I haven’t given up on my prior read of DS as Town, but at the same time why would a Scum!Chess just not throw Josh under the bus? Unless they’re both Town, and it was a false choice. Josh really was sure it was DS though [#1186] (he was also certain it was me, so there’s that). If it’s Chess, then you’re the Scum Partner, but then what you were outside the wagon for the lynching of Town both times? It just seems unlikely. And I have been TR you the entire game. I thought I knew you man if this is your Scum game I’m going to be shocked.
@ChadMD well, if it’s DS, then it can’t be Urist as the Partner because he would be hardcore defending DS here, or at least signaling that he would be willing to vote for Chess (he also came out with a position early, which makes me think he’s not going to change it). Which leaves you.
The problem here is that I had in my head already figured out that it has to be Chad as Scum. All of the red flags together with the votes for Town just do not add up, and me defending Chad against near certain lynches makes me feel kind of stupid now. So I’m with Urist there. Now, given all this, I’m much more inclined to want to vote with Urist and against DS, but I’m not willing to put any votes down until Chad comes in here and makes his views known. I don’t trust Chad with a final vote here anyway.
@DS, besides committing to vote for you the day prior, what makes Chess Scum? Yeah I know the CC confirms the other as Scum but I’m asking what else is there?
@chesskid3, what’s wrong about my supporting rationale for DS being Town?
I’m going to go back and re-read for myself btw. I’ll be back tomorrow afternoon btw I am traveling right now so don’t expect any contributions for the next ~18 hours.
I think the way he kinda just dilly dallied around both of the hammers the last few phases is kinda clear, plus the fact that I’m like the obvious lynch here after being so vocally wrong the last few phases so counterclaiming here is essentially him claiming that he can power scum y’all to a loss
