I agree with the first part and to a lesser degree the second part but:

While this does seem characteristically un-thoughtful from Amni (and I can see a scum motivation for it), I think it's more likely he just got overexcited with a vig like every does

No joke, I posted in my confessional I was going to hold it and just kill whoever had the most votes at 12 hours to deadline....it...didn't last long.

Immediately busting your poo poo out and then backpedaling into "haha it was a joke, i'm like a ghost or a dog and just sort of do things randomly. im harmless!" is definitely a good way to play the game.

Unfortunately, it's not a good way to play if you're innocent of crimes. ##vote Amnistar

You're reaching a little too far, I was a 2nd vote on someone, not a big deal, and definitely would not have condoned a vig kill.

I am not scared to put my vote out early, it's not a scum move, just means I'm willing to get in the mix.

I don't think Amni is scum with a vig kill, he seems to be townie with a "nothing to lose" attitude, which I hardly find unique to scum.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

Yes, exactly.

Scum-Amni: "I did a thing Town do! I am carefree like a Town player!"
If there’s anything you and I and like 80% of this game should know right now it’s that the reverse is also true and amni does things scum would do while town.

It is a highly unlikely role. I actually find it weird Yuming would be suspect of it so early. Actual scum would want to wait for a more critical time to fire it off, it's much more likely for town to fire it off for a laff.

Also this, a scum dayvig turns LYLO into a loss, it’s super OP.

Also amni being an insanely powerful scum role and wasting it D1 to weaken his team and unnecessarily put himself on everyone’s radar as a ploy to make everyone decide he’s so scummy he must be town is, to put it lightly, some real galaxy brain poo poo.

Scum, third party, doesn't particularly matter. But absolutely having the ability to do this "I'm wacky!" thing so early, and then just coast for the rest of the game because well, they're the town vig, is absolutely the sort of thing an overeager villain with a daykill would do.

So...you'd be happier if I lied?

I shot steak because I have a bit of a friendly rivalry with them and I thought the set-up for the "Oh you're day 1 scum" was fun. I did not have any actual scum read on steak before I shot them.

it was an example. i would've also been happy with what you just posted! because it adds context and clarity to an actual action with consequences. it fills out a profile of your posting, to compare against. but instead you didn't, and just tried to move on quickly until pressed, and unfortunately, i think that's pretty suspicious.


day 1 is lean on data, so it does truly rely on hunch and instinct, but your kill at least gives us a little meat on the bone

Amni probably saw Steak say something mildly awkward and thought, "If I get a hit here, it'll be the next big mafia instagram moment and we'll all laugh and I'll be very popular."

But then he missed like a doofus, and probably had to play off the fact that he's kind of embarrassed by it. Just a...yes, a joke! I meant to do that all along, guys.
