Parity Cop 9'er (1, 2) OVER

I guessed TN would die, they were the most obvious cop target tbh

Actually Andres, why did you lynch urist instead of pushing me yesterday?

Nvm he didn’t lol

Tbh Dan’s hammer was kinda bad too, he seemed to over justify it and there was really no need to hammer yet at that point, pretty sure I have to vote Dan today.

Also why would Andres shoot Josh whho is locktowning Andres

I’ll go reread the game.

Atm I do have a particular lean but I’ll see if it holds up.

I mean there’s no harm in saying it?

Dan, stop screwing around and state what you mean.

Have you reread yet?

Ok basically I can’t believe that Andres would kill Josh when Dan could’ve very easily been cop. He could’ve hard pocketed Josh d3 if Andres was scum and had no real reason not to do so, given Josh had him as lock town. I’m not going to ignore the cop saying Andres was lock town in lylo, despite my attempted interpretation of Josh’s intentions yesterday.

As Andres said I kinda agree that it’s hard to interpret exactly what Josh meant regarding TN/Dan but even despite that I’m going to trust Josh’s meta on this Andres read, because listening to dead players is important imo.

There’s also the side effect that Dan is doing absolutely nothing that even gives me the chance to town read him today. He even hammered last night which I think was probably too early and seemed kinda oppurtunistic. Regardless I don’t think my mind can be changed here and I think in lylo you have to just bite the bullet sometimes so as not to let paranoia set in. So here we go

VOTE: actiondan

@Andresvmb

Also looking back if Josh had a clear on TN and Dan he would’ve just claimed and I respect Josh’s skill enough to believe he would’ve claimed I think

@ActionDan

I’m not the Scum. Now it’s clear. So can you explain to me why I shouldn’t just vote you to end the game given the numerous questionable things that you’ve managed to do this game.

See here’s why I haven’t just voted ActionDan who’s basically been on the wrong side of every argument (though he did shade StarV after pressure built there).

Strategically, you (the hypothetical Scum) knew that Star was likely to be lynched. I mean it’s obvious, it’s happened basically every game on this site. So, if I’m the Partner, we probably develop an understanding that instead of fighting it, that I would just bus him hard to never have the stench of his Scum flip on me. I mean it’s worked beautifully - nobody has had you (Dusk) as the Scum all game, with Josh going as far as calling you Lock Town.

Why am I wavering here? Because if Dan is the Scum, he just NK’s you and leaves TN, me and himself alive. TN stated in thread that I would just be next if Urist flipped Scum. And I had you as Lock Town. So why would he ever not just kill the player that most people had as Lock Town? It’s clearly suboptimal, no?

So that’s why I’m struggling. I can’t point to anything in particular. If you’re Scum, I think you’ve played as flawless a Scum game as there probably is. And if you’re Town, you’ve made all the same mistakes that everyone made (including me), so how can I fault you? You aggressively attacked DS (with good reason), helping mechanically lynch him when it made sense, and you sided with me instead of Urist like the rest of the playerlist (which is now obviously a TvT). And besides, AD’s hammer of Urist was awful. When’s the last time AD made a post that long for anything? He must have felt like he had to explain the vote to not look as guilty, but he jumped in just when I was wavering.

And then there’s this. Like how can I basically go against the entire player list and vote Dusk here? If this is the expectation then it’s an impossible one.

I get your wavering, but if I was scum I would’ve just stuck with the Dan and TN were cleared theory and lynched you. It would’ve been very easy to get Dan to lynch you with me so I had no real reason to not do that and win as scum

Also I have absolutely no meta on starv so didn’t really know he was an easy ml until after I first started pressuring him when others joined

There’s also the point that if I waited this out you two would’ve cross voted in most realities, I always felt like in this lylo I was going to be the deciding vote. Luckily I’ve got it right so I’m happy. But I don’t really think there are grounds for you to hero vote me rn, I’ve done nothing you can point and say is scummy all game so please don’t get paranoid here.

Yeah I know. And maybe that’s why I’m paranoid haha.

I’ll give AD a chance to speak, but if I’m being honest, the odds that I vote for you here and try to be the hero (to probably get it wrong) are not high.

No problem, I can’t fault that. I was overthinking this for ages too lmao
