They were arguing back and forth at a time when, if they were scum, they would have already successfully achieved a mislynch on waves and lined up another mislynch on freddie. In what world do they continue arguing in the thread for pages after the hammer when they can just not do that and it still wouldn't be suspicious? "Occams razor."In post 1449, votato wrote:

She picked a fight with me first, that wasn't planned. I always argue when someone picks a fight with me, so that's what I did in response. You'd have to ask her "why" she picked a fight with me.- Formerfish

Scum!freddie claiming VT gets the benefit of people calling her noobtown and hard defending her for it; she gets the benefit of not having to explain why she wasn't the NK in this game ever; she gets the benefit of being able to tie messy associatives to the people who are defending her so even after she gets lynched, PoEs are fucked up by that claim.
At any time during that entire chain of events, freddie could have asked for clarification about what was happening if she was so clueless, like you say she is. She could have asked whether waves had really been lynched. She could have confirmed whether she needed to claim. Since you two know each other so well, she could have asked you directly to explain what was happening if she felt intimidated by others in the thread. She didn't do any of those things.- Formerfish

Like, i am so close to asking a question, but once I do that box cant be closed, but if the answer is yes then i get the relationship you guys have and im not going to question things any more, but if the answer is no then you are being severely anti-town with your play here and are being more of a distraction than anything.
I assume you disagree that before Freddie claimed that they were a likely target for the nk, therefore claiming vt as scum allowed her an out when the day started and she was still alive, "Oh, well they didnt kill me because they knew i was a vt because they know im town and must have went pr hunting."
You cant say that there is no reason for scum to claim there, you can only disagree that thats what happened.Show"Getting lost in the details of nothing..."

I generally dont explain townreads, i just make cases and lynch scum. I do that by making allies and enemies, if my allies prove to be incorrect more often than not, or make bad plays than i readjust, until then i lynch through my scum reads and play the game until we win.In post 1448, gibus wrote:I don't understand how FF found Copy bleeding town, and find it AI that he ignored my question.Show"Getting lost in the details of nothing..."

Because im not saying that Copy slot is 100% town and fighting anyone who says otherwise. I remember liking Copys posts (and i think he was fighting with Vota wasnt he?) and then when the slot was replaced there were shenanigans where Tux was pushed close to a lynch right after replacing in and mentioning that they werent caught up, so that gave them town points in my eyes since it seemed like a scum push to get a quick lynch before the player could catch up and start defending the slot against the bullshit being flung against them.In post 1448, gibus wrote:How is FF defending Copy different from votato defending Fred?
So, yeah, my read evolved on that slot to grow stronger based on evidence of their plays, and the plays lobbied against them by players i scum read.
Kind of the enemy of my enemy is my friend type of thing.
And no one has laid out a case that is going to sway me away from Vota or Freddie yet.
You want me to look elsewhere, give me a place to look that is more attractive then where im looking.Show"Getting lost in the details of nothing..."

There is more to it, but again i dont really explain my townreads since a lot of it is based off gut and putting things together in ways that a lot of other people dont see. I have just played a shit load of this game over the last 7 years and have a pretty good grasp on the fundamentals that scum hunting of old was built on.
