Palamedes: as has come up a couple times before, palamedes is on the very low end of my scum suspicions list, and that's really only because their play hasn't been particularly helpful or proactive and that isn't how I possibly misremember their play being. I was rereading their conversation with tehPilot a moment ago, and it actually kind of made me wonder why pilot isn't more suspicious of me considering my play has been a lot like palamedes's and I have been tunneling pretty hard on granola man much like beru, both of which are things he said he found suspicious in other people. This is supposed to be about palamedes though, and I just don't know.
Granolaman: I can genuinely come up with a mechanically and socially plausible world in which granola is a mafia aligned day killer and bus murdered Airey since he was definitely going to die already and granola had come up several times through several players' suspicions and he was probably going to be watched Pretty closely next. I really want that to be the world we're living in, because granola really was my current strongest scum suspicion, for pretty meager reasons, but that just seems so astronomically unlikely compared to the much more reasonable option of granola is a standard day killer and my suspicions were completely unfounded that I pretty much have to assume town for now. I'm not going to go so far as a couple of other people and call him confirmed, but if this is a scum gambit it's as masterful as it is stupid.
x1372: this is actually a slot I would love to have copped, because I felt pretty good about their predecessor's play and pretty good about x's play and pretty good about all the things they said and especially good about the likelihood of acio's reactions that led up to replacement being those of a town aligned acio, but both of the people that have occupied the slot think and play differently enough from me, and are superior enough Mafia and Hunt players to me, that I don't feel confident in my assessment of their genuineness or my own ability to analyze their arguments. I really think either of them would be able to successfully hoodwink me into voting with scum agendas, so it would be nice to have some confirmation of my positive suspicions so that I wouldn't have to second-guess everything I think about what they say so much.
Sai: Sai is gradually creeping towards the suspicious end of my no strong feelings pool, and I can't really tell if it's just because other people are starting to voice their suspicions and that's enough to sway me or if it's the fact that I always get leery of anybody agreeing with me especially if I don't have a particularly strong foundation for what I was feeling. I don't think I've played Mafia with Sai before, but his posts suggest to me another advanced enough player that I'm again worried that I could be misled and it makes me want to know more concretely about their alignment.
Robust Laser: I didn't particularly like robust lasers in activity and general unhelpfulness and unwillingness to put down concrete opinions. A lot of that was mollified following Jac's prompting. I'm actually back to not feeling great about them now that the whole event with Airey and granola has gone down, because what it mostly feels like what they did was focus on mechanical speculation and take any opportunity to potentially get off the Airey wagon.
Beruru: it's just hard to say or feel much about a slot that has, even for completely valid and fair reasons, said so little. If I tell you who you targeted last night, will you tell me what you did to me?
Not The Author: vote: not the author when you die, it'll tell me about X's alignment and Sai's and yours, and God only knows how else I'm supposed to find anything about your alignment out.
LordlyHour: pretty much just paste in everything I said about Blazer last time I talked about them. It's not like I have any more to go off of now. Do I? Have they been around today and I've forgotten them? Another thing to focus in my next reread.
SleepingOrange: Handsome. Smells nice. Poor scumhunter. 8/10 overall
