Alright, some more belated thoughts/content.
I skimmed over the thread again and I think I’m ready to drop Kat from the nullzone and right into scumleans, for a few reasons.
As I pointed out above – the way that his posts sound completely fake.
Second, I absolutely don’t like his voting and his flailing this game. His indecisiveness reeks of scum and the fact that he hasn’t contributed much is… aggravating. I know that Kat doesn’t give a lot of information early on, but he has provided very little substance overall. This is not a good look.
Wazza’s point on Arete is somewhat convincing – they did contribute to lynching Appel and were amongst the first people to switch to Kyo. I know that Arete’s scum meta is to cause as many mislynches as possible and to lead the town to self-destruction, and so far the narrative fits. They still wouldn’t be my top target to lynch today though, not yet. Going to keep a closer eye on what precisely they do and how they go about doing it, although there are also a few posts/reactions from them that I really do not like.
Last thing on this slot – Arete’s flip-flopping on Vulgard and Vulgard’s flip-flopping on Arete makes me think that they are never W/W together. Arete still isn’t exempt from being the Traitor, however.
Oh and about Wazza – I am basically convinced that he is town after that horrible RT now. I don’t see a world where he is either a Traitor or OG groupscum.
Marshal is in a weird spot once more because he has rescinded his Minister claim as well, and no one really paid attention to it. Not liking that, we are still living in the world where Marshal is one of the prime Traitor candidates. This is also backed up by Apprentice’s claim (if it is indeed real), because Apprentice claimed to collect blood from Marshal/Kat/Braixen (this also somewhat implicated Kat by the way) and use Blood Elixir, but none of his visitors were killed. So if Apprentice flips Congregation, one of these three is guaranteed to be scum and I’m crossing Braixen out right off the bat. Therefore, Marshal/Kat (and I would lean towards Lat more).
After some consideration, I would indeed like SDA to flip after that LW claim (Which he retracted as a ‘meme’? You should never do this as town, period), but Apprentice is still fair game, too. Purely because I believe that Kyo pushing on App could’ve been theatrics, but then again – Kyo also somewhat cleared SDA which is not a good look for him.
What I’m certain about is that there’s never a world where SDA/Apprentice are both starting W/W, but at least one of them is groupscum right now.
Conclusion: I still want Apprentice to die, but I want SDA to die too.
If today’s lynch was dictated by me, I would always choose Apprentice over SDA because his flip provides us with information: if he is Congregation then we have confirmed scum within Kat/Marshal/Braixen, if he is Heretic then, well, one more Heretic down.
