Distorted
Distorted has a very clean posting history. Nothing exciting besides my interaction with him, and his interactions with Blinkskater. The rest is mostly just discussing game mechanics and town strategies.
He has an evolving opinion on the weapons, which I see as pro Town. It's a situation that has so many variables, no one should feel content with how to deal with them.
Distorted did subtly try to buddy with Fielz, whether it was an intentional buddy or just trying to help a new person out is yet to be determined. He goes on to give Fielz town cred due to him thinking of scum strategies. Not something I personally would do, scum can easily rattle off strategies because they
are scum. Not the worst reason to Town cred someone tho.
He is a fan of giving a gun out Night 1 as long as it is not Efekannn that gets it. 100% understandable. He heavily suggests Blinkskater is given the gun, more on this later.
His idea on holding a vote on who should be shot worries me. It's just another variable that can be manipulated. I'm pretty sure he decided against doing this after all, can't remember.
I like that he points out pressuring Efekannn Day 1 is useless. As with Hybrid, a lynch on Efekannn Day 1 would not give us any leads. If either flip Mafia, we could look at non voters I guess. Not a fan of lynching either of these guys personally right now.
His pressure on Blink regarding the pressure on low posters being more beneficial than high posters is correct. Blink would rather have let silent people go under the radar and possibly lynch a contributing Town player. Both had solid reasoning but I give Distorted cred for pushing this discussion. After the other FM I played, lurkers NEED to be pushed.
He also advocates for a Day 1 lynch to prevent items from flowing. This I understand, but the chances of it helping are so slim we would have to have an incredibly strong scum read on someone. Who is the closest we got, Sheep? He was replaced with Naztallah. Are we still feeling right about our scum read on Sheeps slot? I'm not for a Day 1 lynch on a subbed player slot.
His scum reads as I am aware are: rumox, scv, efe, noz.

If you were to lynch someone Day 1, I'm assuming it's one of these 4. We both agree Efekannn isn't probably happening right? Care to share?
Also, I noticed Sheep/Naz wasn't on that list. Can you elaborate why? I think its obvious but I would like to hear it from you.
I don't like that he thinks he wasn't pushing Sheep for a lynch when he was sitting at 3 or 4 votes at the time and he was scum hunting him the hardest, regardless of the fact that I shared the same opinion. The fact that he stood his ground and started reverse scum hunting me is what gives me the biggest Town vibes from him however. This is something Fielzanks didn't do in the same kind of situation. He has patchy interactions with Blinkskater and I'm not sure how I feel about it. He stated himself he has mixed feelings on Blink but wants him to be given a gun. I will be really interested in finding out if Blink gets more than 1 item tonight.
All in all, pretty neutral feeling. Swings both ways for me. Looking forward to seeing what he has to say as the game progresses.
