I don't know if it's enough to completely erode my townread yet. I know that when I played scum against town Nero, he did a similar thing where he kept making points that weren't actually valid and twisting things yet he mostly ended up being right on the reads anyway. So, I'm not really sure that it makes him scum.

Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Low posters are a common push even if it an argument worthy of Tainted ???

and honestly, I just dislike your slot currently.
i'm scummy for pushing low posters? weak

I mean yeah, there are some lurkers but it's not like my suspicions lie solely on lurkers, and it's not like lurkers are immune from rolling scum pms. Your arguments are trash.

I never actually said that.
What I said is I just dislike your slot currently and that the low poster argument is a common one that Tainted ??? can use as ammunition.

Your predessor apparently cheated a Lump of Coal in and your jumpiness seems kinda bad to me.

Not a great argument I know, I could maybe go back and dig around but 200+ pages, I'm going on my notes which are... minimal.

FL can be tunneled town but I find it less likely since they wouldn't have made that much of a stink yesterday and just quietly shot if they were actually vigi. Course I could be wrong.

Effectively FLs claim gets a lot more or less believable depending on tonight's kill(s) and tomorrow nights kill(s)
Did flavor claim ungated vig though?
They claim to be able to kill if every monk is alive
I think 'FL mafia' seems more likely than 'FL town vig and also both scum teams failed to kill last night'? and catboi being a bookie on werewolf means very likely mafia could have a gated vig type role on their team as well even if FL is partially telling the truth. also the setup explicitly says to expect weird role alignments

so i'm gonna move my vote back over to flavor leaf for now :o

Having gone back to your list and looked at the post counts it has a distribution I'd expect from Monstros Lung.
A bit of everywhere.
I even showed my working and asked if the numbers helped you at all.

Started as a townread, then FL's case convinced me that there were some valid things to scumread, generally didn't like his case on FL and thought he had scum motivation behind it, and thought his responses to people like me and Malcolm were suspicious. And yet, despite all that, I was fooled enough by his tone to not be confident in a scumread. By the end of the Day, I had him on the scum side of null, but not by a lot, there was still too much that I personally read as town even though I could understand the reasons for scum.

https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.p ... #p10854444 - This is the game that I pulled the gambit as town saying I was a Day 3 IC. Nobody believed me there. I was a 1-shot Vig, held my Night 1, and I shot scum Night 2, then I got pushed as scum killing my own partner.

https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.p ... #p11204754 - Here is Detective Penguin, another game I claimed Day 3 IC as a Vigilante.

https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.p ... #p13354434 - Here's where I say this game that "I'm gonna pull from the Old FL handbook....I'm a Day 3 IC."




https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.p ... #p12257454 - A vig game of mine where I replace in Night 1, and hit scum Night 1 also, this one I didn't get a chance to say I was a Day 3 IC because I came in during the night and used the shot.

Here's the thing, if I was a Vigilante as scum, I never claim Vigilante as scum. I don't claim my real role as scum like ever.

and this is how scum reacted towards me. Seem familiar?

They also went on to call me scum who shot my own partner.

which means 5 of the people I find scummy are town.

mena is being a useless lurksack and doing nothing but whining about being scumread which is a bit lame but he's 50% less likely to be scum I think.

Ducks could be town I guess? or at least not mafia. My big issue with him was that he referred to bnuuny as "us" and town reading her. I felt like bnuuny was doing alot of active lurking in this game.

my Tucker suspicion is just that I don't remember anything he's done. I'll reread him and update at some point.

And MM is solely b/c I am worried that the guilty is an attempt to save Meg today.
