Kold really needs to show up, has pretty much ghosted since becoming confirmed. Hobo doesn't have a reason not to side with town at this stage but also don't have a real reason to do it either so they need that 3rd town person there.

Town, I'd hate to be in your position right now. Deciding between two people is never easy. I've done my best in this game and though I've been wrong, I've tried to be as honest and transparent as possible. If you vote for me, that's fine.

I do promise not to give up and will keep posting (yes even past 10) until the day ends or we reach majority.

Maol flipped Day 5. Why didnt you push me day 6 since you believed both our roles couldnt be in the game? Please don't mention zipped, because zipped has nothing to do with me and maols roles.

Of course you don’t want me mentioned. You’re afraid of more people believing me…

You can literally see the moment everything started falling into place in LPs mind. Props for him, if he manages to turn this about.

The problem is that he needs the other town to follow him. Ambulance was starting to get there last night but hasn't been around today and we've now had two game days with no contributions from Kold.

Kold sounds like he's open to discuss Scum Zeke even if hasn't put the work forward, and Ambulance is all the way open. It just depends on who among Zeke and LP makes the more persuasive bit to sway Kold.

Zeke trying to appeal to emotion with meta reads lol. I hope LP calls him out on it when Zeke has been trying to pin LP meta of being alive as a valid reason to vote him.

Hobo has to kill anyone who isn't him, if no one else is around he will side with zeke

Frankly if they lose for not reading it it's deserved

I think LP just needs to throw his vote down and see what the others do. It feels like the others are waiting for someone else to make a move first.

I remember being end game in MGS and the only person around I could argue with who was around was Reki so I argued for him for like half a day before I gave up.

I haven't been able to keep up after surgery prep for a surgery that was cancelled and my second vaccine shot knocking me out, but it sounds like it's been interesting. It's my 30th birthday today so town winning would be a fun present. :p

I feel that.

Looks like I'm going to have to mark Leo as the scummiest town player. Voting for Fando over Turmoil or Bo after spending the whole day saying he'd go for those two sure is something. Not necessarily a bad thing, but just something to keep in mind for future plays. @Leo you should lean into this when you're scum. It's a good meta, if frustrating lol.

Thanks for the birthday wishes. Please kill Zeke. All I want is the death of someone against me. Is that so much to ask? That a life be sacrificed to honor my own? Zeke won't mind! He'll be dead.

Yeah, charitable towards all the townies who wanted to kill him this phase.

The town killing scum Day 1 results in a loss streak continues for me. Except maybe not if hobo chooses to side with town? Interesting.

Nah it's dumb. He was one vote away from being hammered, make your vote be known or, well, we end up with this disgrace.

I know what LP was trying to do, and I respect it as due courtesy. But you don't leave the last life preserve in the lap of town during Volo to someone who has on that same page, said multiple times they're unsure. Kold was waiting for a directive and he went with who he thought was more in line with consensus.

This game is a really good example of what to look for if you’re concerned about a deep wolf also. Like none of Zeke’s pushes on his teammates are strong. Look at his posts about LP vs. his posts about his teammates. He’s not actually trying to convince anyone his teammates are scum.

It wasn't a disgrace, although I do think that heavily contributed to how things were read. This is the only thing I would call a straight up mistake:

Town, I'd hate to be in your position right now. Deciding between two people is never easy. I've done my best in this game and though I've been wrong, I've tried to be as honest and transparent as possible. If you vote for me, that's fine.

An appeal to emotions at this stage is already a hard act to pull. You need to hammer the tone, and starting with "Town" is a bad choice because it implies you aren't town yourself. If you're sure it's Zeke, you need to tag and address Kold and Ambulance directly. It's also better to address understanding suspicion instead of forgiving their eventual votes.

Everything else by LP was quality, though. Just needed to acknowledge Kold's bias and work your ass off to sway Kold and only Kold.

People will remember this game as another one where town went full town.

I'll remember it as the game where I ended a day with the most posts.

This game also gave us LP = low poster, gehssyrfuhssyr, and operation Frenzy Plant, so it really was about all the memes we made along the way
