Surely there is some middle ground between a "fully formed vote"--which, this is mafia, so ????--and "plac[ing] 27 in a day."
What do you think about a Dunn vote?"This Court has never held that the Constitution forbids the execution of a convicted defendant who has had a full and fair trial but is later able to convince a habeas court that he is 'actually' innocent."

What do you think of GC's reaction and comments about BM and SG?Sarcasm is just a way of saying how stupid you think someone is but in a more polite way.- Not_Mafia

Germa there is one thing not voting until you're sure, if there is plenty of time still till deadline but it's entirely different not giving reads either way. There are 13 players in this game and one of them is you. I find it impossible if your town that you haven't at the very least got some slight reads. Maybe not strong reads but reads at least slightly off null.In post 648, geraintm wrote:

But nope.
Are you paralyzed by doubt? Lazy? Scum? Who knows!
You *not* updating your vote is going to make sorting you much more difficult in later days.
Clearly one vote is not enough pressure to get you to actually post some basic content. At this stage you have less committal content then bambi last game. And we collectively let him lurk that game.
If you're not scum then. Not even giving us some basic reads makes it harder for us to sort you. Risking us being tricked into mislynching you.- stungun0404

Not the exact same thing. You are twisting it a little bit there. I have not advocated for your lynch/actively pushed evidence for others to vote you since I switched to voting BM, whereas in your case you were actively stuck on voting BM while pushing evidence to support a Dunnstral lynch, which is highly inconsistent and only can encourage what was already the biggest wagon that has formed this day phase. Thus, those are two entirely different scenarios. How, then, are they the exact same thing?In post 642, Green Crayons wrote:

Why? There are a lot of reasons -- let me bullet point them for you.
- Votes can simply be for pressure purposes to see how others respond when their backs are against the wall. Their reactions, or even lack of one sometimes, can indicate whether they are pro-town or pro-scum, and hence reveal their alignment. Thus, by simply using your vote to pressure others, you can gather useful reactions for you to look back at later.
- Once some flips are obtained, you can look back and see who was defended against the pressure you applied after flips, who distracted away from it, or even took the pressure you applied and furthered it against somebody, using it as a reason for someone else to vote that person themselves. Sometimes, but not always, the ones that sheep you aren't really scumhunting, and are merely looking for shields.
- Also, you can look at if the person you voted for simply for pressure purposes tries to turn things around back on you in a scummy fashion. Like, are they taking things out of context in a way that scum might? This can be extremely valuable information as you are sorting players in the game.
- All this information becomes more and more useful as the game progresses. Sometimes, it is all we have to go off of as town. Thus, you want your intent here to look like you are sorting players so you don't become a distraction.
- Further, you show town that you are looking for scum if you are pressuring different wagons (with reason of course) and gauging reactions to them. This implies to other townplayers that you are town and they can eliminate from their scumpool. Provided you are town, you want to be careful to convey to town that you are not scum so you do not get mislynched, whether this day phase or a later one.
- I can tell you one thing from experience. By not being proactive on D1, in this sense you rob not only yourself as a townplayer from all the above opportunities that could help later on in the game, but you also rob the rest of town, which means I think it is not best townplay on D1.
--------------------------
I also agree with Mala that I also would not want you to skate through this game as scum behind what would be a lazy facade here for scum to implement. And I also used to be mislynched a lot D1, or at the very least was very much mislynch bait like Mala said she has been as town, but I have certainly become a more difficult D1 lynch as town over time.- Green Crayons

You suspect both BM and GC, and switched from voting GC to BM. You obviously still suspect GC.

I dont consider myself easily put off by effort posts, but this entire post was really difficult to get through and follow.In post 607, HK 50 wrote:All in all, I dont believe the votato interaction by stungun was done for what was claimed. I wouldnt be surprised if Dunnstral is scum and stungun picked to pressure other LHFesk players in a bid to protect Dunnstral.
I think the upshot tho is what I just quoted. If so—doesn’t your entire stun-scum read boil down to an associative tell IF Dunn flips scum?"This Court has never held that the Constitution forbids the execution of a convicted defendant who has had a full and fair trial but is later able to convince a habeas court that he is 'actually' innocent."

Yeah, I guess the only reason I suspected you in this case was because Dunnstral was the leading wagon, whereas in my case neither BM nor GC have been leading wagons this day phase.In post 657, Green Crayons wrote:

My gut feeling is that dun is town. As i just can't see scum blatantly making blank votes on a player claiming to scum read him and the other going wagon. It feels too blatant for scum. Would have thought that if he is scum then he would have tried dressing it up, instead he simply posts a series of quotes and doesn't say why they lead him to scum reading not mafia.
Would scum real vote for someone when their last comment on that player was that he had in fact had no read on them. If he was scum i would have expected something along the lines of something between a few short sentences to several paragraphs.- bob3141

So why would you only suspect green due to dun being the leading wagon. I don't see why green actions regarding the dun wagon would really impact your desire to vote either way between them. As it's something that never really changed between your vote on green and your vote on BM.In post 659, stungun0404 wrote:

But your point is fair enough.
So why in effect would you side with BM against green by voting green. If it was simply a matter of green finding a dun lynch acceptable. As for him to be scum at most half the dun wagon must at least be town. What made you think that green at the time was scum happy with both Bm and duns mislynch. Rather than green potential believing that both were good lynch candidates. As with something so little I would have expected you based on your claimed belief that there is one scum in green/BM. To first vote BM first but pressure green over his reasons.- HK 50
