Thought I'd give a roundup of thoughts what with it being the christmas break and all so it's gonna get trickier to post.
Red ruy/Glyph/Mentos/[Insert inactive]
^I would support these. Plz join me on one.
Agreeing with J on specific points about rajam. I don't understand why he needed to show concern over ryker here as a town read and go as far as to advise him... seemed unnecessary to me =/ I think rajam is perceptive though, there are others I'd lynch before him. He did give me a response to this which looked thorough. I'll do a reread of his play but I think there are better options than him he should consider changing.
J you haven't commented on Acrostic/Auspher. Why are they null to you?

Ryu is off. I think he's exagerating points against Mentos and claims his attacks need "bite", makes me think he's willing to misconstrue and exaggerate to get someone he wants lynched which doesn't come across as genuine. Then there's the misplaced suspicion on me which he hasn't explained yet and I'd like some insight really... if my johns "stuck" I would be scum, yet he immediately decided to place me as scum straight after he said this [
#578/
#583]. The conditional statement didn't fit. Came across like that was just a flavour of the hour read and makes me think he's doing it to blend in to the majority and deciding things on a whim without looking beneath the surface. Comes across as being a bit of a sly fox this one.

Glyph --> thought he looked irrational in the exchange with mentos e.g.
#468 I didn't see mentos as solely defending himself and it looked like he just popped in as a break in to the game to give content. I've considered bingo shenanigans here, because he seemed to nosedive into the action in that game as well all cocky galore. I also found the jump to circus opportunistic. If he wasn't playing the game at this point, why did he bother making the switch to the majority wagon? =?... clearly he was not after a no lynch. He later claims he wouldn't want to lynch inactives anyway over players who are more meaningful to him (mentos), and claims things can happen <24 hours, so when he started to go srsmode before the deadline I don't know why he didn't consider pushing mentos more at this point who was meaningful to him.

Mentos is a tough one. I may have over-analysed. Still, I find him airy/not very progressive/his attention to certain players odd enough to lynch him. I've had impressions throughout the Day he's been analysing people with common traits -- no content, bad contributions, fluff posting, wasteful etc which explains why parts of his scumlist have stuck throughout the Day... (which iirc is Ruy/Auspher/Acrostic(?)/Soup/and only now glyph). Points like these have a low threshold in activating awareness of a stimulus/cause.....so Glyph pops in and out throughout - generally giving no content/being wasteful and "twists" mentos' actions in the process; I understand mentos was raging to not notice glyph doing things he was supposedly looking for in scum, but in the post glyph
cited... he regains composure / recognises glyph twisted his actions /
asks him to contribute / glyph isn't that responsive / and mentos seems to go oddly lightly on him
here... which is a completely different tune in how he responded to, say, someone like
ryker. (Read the paragraph above the word "incidentally" in the way mentos demands that information). Why was mentos' reply not harsher to engage with Glyph more at this specific point considering he was more critical of others for not posting much content and that was earlier in the game?
It essentially makes me question parts of mentos' scum list and treatment of specific players - why are some being penalised over others? Makes me think mentos potentially orients himself toward specific players in this game to feign contribution, and could be affiliated to them. After all, why on earth is he still on soup?
... apparently because of vibes based on, well, nothing

right now I can see mentos or ruy as a likelier lynch over glyph unless people want to join me on this?
unvote
vote: mentos
EE/Ryker/Glyph you're all interested in mentos? That makes 4. 5 with rajam. 6 with Red Ruy. 3 more. I'm not sure if this is doable. I'm worried about a no lynch because all the votes look pretty split. I will vote soup/J/Kevin/acrostic if necessary. I will also vote Rajam. But I'd much rather leave them to Mr. Imaginary Vig and get a meaningful wagon now that we have this extension.
Also, Christmas and next week is going to be tricky.
Declaring V/LA over this period. I'll be around to ensure we don't get a no lynch. I do care about this game gheb.
