Wow, I really, really thought that town would lose this game!
I knew that Dormio and Conqueror were scum since D1, and I kind of wanted to replace in (TwT)
To sum up, Dormio attacked Raikaria for gameplay style reasons, which he recognized, and many other weak points that just seemed like scum pushing a weak target because it's easy. However, the reason why I thought that was definitely coming from scum and not Dormio being stupid was something he said:
"I mean, I want to say it's scummy, but I just can't read if Serela is motivated by laziness or actual scumminess.
If the push came to the shove, I would say that Serela is scummy, but I'd rather vote for Raikaria first."
This basically meant that it was fine for him that Serela was doing scummy things because of gameplay style, while the same wasn't true for Raikaria. The difference? Raikaria had a wagon and Serela didn't.
Conqueror defended Dormio when people suspected him because of playerstyle, when Dormio's case was basically entirely based on playerstyle and weak points... however, he didn't defend Raikaria... and there were also some other parts where he treated Dormio different from the rest. After D1 he spent a whole lot of time defending Dormio, here are some examples:
"unless paperblade really likes to superbus as scum (can someone with paperblade meta back me up on this) im pretty sure dormio is town now"
This is specially relevant because it was practically the first thing he said in his N3 posts.
"stop hating on dormio for writing like dormio when he's given out more relevant content today than you have. yes, i went there."
As game went by, people suspecting Dormio kept dying and Conqueror used the nightalk less every night, which just felt like a consequence of not being voted at all. In addition he wasn't suspected at all, and given the nightalk ability he had it was almost impossible for him not to get killed given that he's also a good player.
Both Dormio and Conqueror kind of scumslipped, by the way:
Dormio said the following when NNR said he was a bomb: "Though I'm more than willing to trade my life for a scum lynch if that's what people want."
Here he assumed that NNR would have the role he claimed. He was supposed to think he was scum and lying about that, yet he assumed that the role was true.
Conqueror said something like this on his first post on N1: "bla bla bla my first active ability"
Yet he just claimed to have one ability afterwards. I know he said it was a jokepost (I don't think it was), but the contradiction stands.
Also here's something he said that was extremely scummy: "I am not afraid of what is in the QT BECAUSE IT SUPPORTS THE CONCLUSION THAT I AM TOWN."
I really doubt town would word this sentence like this. He just was too sincere with that sentence. I don't really feel like explaining this better, but I think you can get the idea.
The only moment when I doubted was D5, when I assumed that I wouldn't get to replace in and talked about the game with Vhaltz. He thought Bardiche was scum and I kind of trust his judgment over mine even if I try not to. Fuck you Vhaltz (?)
Anyways, I enjoyed following this game! And now I want to play but I definitely can't... </3
