Ok everypony, a few of you had made this game very difficult to read since you post way to much filler, actually just one of you but the same problem exists.
Very first line of her very first post. It'll get very ironic as we go deeper.
Being aggressive is not, nor has it ever been a scumtell but a playstyle tell. The fact that he is pushing this as a tell is in itself a tell. He continues to miss the fact that you actually need someone to push pace of a game too, or it has no direction and stalls out early. The game needs someone to take reigns, its better if that person is town, but I would rather be replacing into a game that scum did this then one where everyone sat around twiddling their hooves.
All of this is false. Rainbow's asking you to sheep here, and she openly states that she doesn't care whether or not scum have control of the game, she'll sheep the leader regardless. This is a backdoor if she gets accused of sheeping in the future.
Also, newbie aggressiveness in a large game is a scumtell. I'm not going over this again. It's a scumtell, and Rainbow is using a strawman.
This one is argueably a scumslip even, as he is already assuming that we have two teams when I see nothing in the flavor that suggests a multi-scum setup. I would even say this is more likely a single scum faction setup for reasons that I do not wish to disclose at this point but will become obvious as the game progresses.
Claiming scum knowledge = claiming scum. She should've been lynched right after this post.
Nope, null tell. Town and scum both love to take controll of a game because it plays to their wincondition. Kendall is pretty off compared to most people, but that type of aggressiveness induced meltdown is probably town.
Again: strawman.
I feel as if im being ignored, others should be commenting on Umbrage at the very least here if not wagoning him.
Rainbow has a drive to be in the centre of attention. This is the cause of the juvenile pony puns and pictures she spams. If she can make people like her, they won't lynch her. Here, she's upset because nobody's paying attention to her wagon.

I'm not going to answer stupid questions like "Who is scum". If I think I've found scum I'm going to push on them but I'm not going to push scum reads that I only half-ass believe in.
Without giving us anything though you are removing everyponies ability to be able to get reads on you and other based off what you are saying. The game requires ponies to actually throw out theories and give suspicions, even if they are not a sure thing because that kicks off other theories, and that makes for other cases and soforth. When somepony refuses to give any suspicions, they are going to actively hurt the rest of the town.
If you had to vote *somepony* right now, who would it be. Things along the lines of "I don't know" are not acceptable answers to this question. It's not who do you expect to be voting at the end of the day, but who is your current and subject to change highest scum read.
Hopefully a third active pony here can help in finally dismanteling the kendall wagon.
Defending kendall. Getting Ray and others to sheep by saying 'vote now' even if they don't know who to vote.
If you have never seen someone react like that how are you using it as a tell?
I see that reaction as more likely town than scum and have explain why. If you are trying to counter this you better be bringing more to the table than that weak stuff, no reasoning and no past experience? Try again. Paranoia is a town tell
when applied correctly,
no pony, ever, has gone through a game as town without feeling some paranoia over a player agreeing with them, or second guessing their vote, or anything along those lines.
Bolded bits are WIFOM.
Rainbow wrote:There actually is something suggesting single scum faction due to balance ease, and I am not pointing it out yet. Assuming non-standard in multi-scum is not only something that allows scum to introduce suspicion of players to the game as you already are here saying that we should still lynch people who arent partners to a first player.
HEHEHEHEHHEHEHHHEEE
WHEN DID I SAY WE SHOULD LYNCH BOBSNOX?????
THINK FAST SCUM.
Here
Bobsnox is also scum, but I doubt he's on the same team as kendall.
Think faster scum.
Rainbow clearly isn't even reading the thread. I doubt her logic skills are that poor, so I'm forced to assume that she's not as concerned with scumhunting as she is with the appearance of scumhunting.
You are acting like its the best tell you have though.
Strawman.
Oh no, im just mocking the fact that you have suddenly switched to saying kendall is the SK because its the only reason newbie players would ever be that aggressive.
Strawman.
I get plenty paranoid throughout the entire game
but just keep it out of thread
so other ponies take more more seriously. Second guessing yourself and wondering why people are making the moves they are with relation to you is something anypony who is competent as town does, and deals with in their own way
Bolded is the flaw in her logic.
WOOSH point dodge! You still are entirely failing to give me refrences to this suddenly existant past game where you have seen this exact thing pan out before, and are failing to explain why its indicative of scum instead of town.
Strawman to cover her own screwup.
I always thought saying "Somepony is scum" means that you think they should be lynched.
Go back to whatever rock you crawled out from underneath.
Yay point proven for me! Its a playstyle thing not an alignment thing.
Strawman, and a really bad one at that, seeing as how the guy was scum and all...
he case on him hinges around his pushing of kendall on two weak points that he continues to fail backing up despite multiple requests (overagressive as scumtell and not liking people buddying) and his slip saying that this is a multi-faction scum game, which no mod post mentions.
Straw- wait, no, this is just plain lying.
Scum are always far more interested in finding a SK than town is. My wondering is why you are pushing SK specifically since its really impossible to get a 'must be' SK read on anyone, even if you are the best player ever.
Strawman.

Bullshit like this serves no purpose other than to try to make the thread unreadable.
We could brohoof and kill them in any order really, but I have an ego that wants to be fed and it wants Umbrage dead more due to a stronger read and punishment for mocking me. Not going to cry over DJ first, but I want Umbrage instead.
All we really need now is the rest of the alliance to show and wait for everypony else to just wagon along.
So, vote Umbrage because I say so, and wait for the rest of the town to mindlessly sheep. Any questions?

Unvote, Vote: DonJosh
Seriously vig you better not be cheeky silver just asked for death AND Umbrage wants it too
Unvote
Vote: DonJosh
Logically this first may be somewhat better either way, but my gut still wants Umbrage.
OH WAIT NEVER MIND WHAT I JUST SAID CUZ WE GONNA LYNCH DONJOSH NOW GO SHEEP GO.
@diddin - We are not saying lynch him this page, although that would be *so awesome*, you don't go looking entirely elsewhere due to a possible flake.
AND WE'RE NOT GONNA QUICKLYNCH EVEN THOUGH I SECRETLY WANT A QUICKLYNCH.
Also I realized how much of my case revolved around there being multi-scum
But of course I'm still scummy for implying there are multi-scum.
You miss the post where someone daykilled him and he flipped LGM - Town? Please keep up with things better.
I still don't know what the fuck this is.
None of that should really change how you ponies judge me though, im a competent player and all of you ponies should treat me as such.
SHEEP ME SHEEP ME FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PLEASE SHEEP ME I'M A LONELY NERD AND I NEED THE ATTENTION!
I would be willing to shift back to Umbrage as he continues to preach the two scum faction arguement for no good reason here.
If I truly have no good reason, then why is it scummy? You say you have good reason, which strikes me as far more scummy.
Really debating moving back to Umbrage though since my town reads that have developed at this point support a multi-scum game, and if there are multiple scum, I can't for the life of me see Umbrage flipping town. Between his kendall pushing, slips saying its multiscum for apparently no reason, and even wagon composition makes me want to go back there. Logic though says other stuff. Need to think about it a little more.
Oh, so there is multi-scum, but I'm scummy because I suggested it before you did. And I've been pushing on kendall, who is confirmed town because you said so. OK, that makes total sense.
I have a very very very good reason asking for this which circles back to dual scum possibilities.
She has very very very good reason? Works for me! *sheep*
Hiraki - See problem there is that you crammed essentially an iso case of every post of his down our throats. That is a pain to read, and makes you look really biased (I know, me against Umbrage). I mean, he isn't a bad pick, but I like quite a few more at this point. Just tl;dr it for all of our sakes.
OMG HIRAKI U MADE A BIG POST, THAT'S BAD BECAUSE ONLY I AM ALLOWED TO SPAM THE THREAD. NOW I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO IGNORE EVERYTHING YOU SAID!
See thing is, im completely willing to give right now, and almost just want to say something along the lines of the following:
1 - Private lynch election between Me, Spy, glow, diddin, snake, inhim and Hiraki
2 - Whoever gets lynched there we all vote together
3 - Game once again unified
4 - I post more pony pictures
5 - Profit
Again, the message here is 'sheep me or I will fucking kill you'.
Ok. We are done. You are going to just run around in circle fine, im not going to take this sitting down though and if everypony is going to wait for a leader, I have no problem with taking the reigns and not only bringing everypony back together but also getting scum lynched.
We are lynching DonJosh. Period. End of story, cut print, wrap and send the letter on lessons learned about friendship (regarding how friends stick together to solve problems) to Princess Celestia.
After the initial ugly beyond reason post about kendall which he later backed off attributing to playstyle (lol?) not much happened there. There has never been a vote past then, or an attempt to scumhunt unless you say calling Umbrage and jmurph "Trying to hard to be town" is scumhunting. That and some of the early wagons on him are basically all town reads. Seven/Eight reads of at worse null on a player? Fire when ready.
No stances, no cases, no way town.
Spy, help me orginize here. We are taking this game back.
WE ARE LYNCHING DONJOSH BECAUSE I SAID SO AND I DON'T NEED ANY REASONING BECAUSE I CAN POST PONY PICTURES SO YOU MUST ALL BOW DOWN BEFORE ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rainbowdash wrote:Unvote
Vote DonJosh
Everypony needs to have that in their next post or a REALLY REALLY good reason not to.
How about you give us ANY reason to do so?
Umbrage is either getting vigged tonight or lynched tomorrow. DJ gets killed tonight simply for the fact that a single scum game means Umbrage is town, and if a flip shows one faction it means Umbrage is just Derpy Pony.
Move your vote. This game is being unified.
BUT DONT WORRY GUIZ CUZ I'VE GOT ALL THE FUTURE LYNCHES SET UP AND IF YOU DONT OBEY WE'LL FUCKING KILL YOU.

Again.
The case is that he's not supportive, so I last heard.
The case is stupid and/or weak.
SodaSpirit17 wrote:I'm not sure if DJ is lurking because he's scum, or because he's getting perhaps 'lazy'.
Reread what I posted. DJ is the play for today.
NO!!!!!!! YOU MUST SHEEP ME!!!!!!!!!!!! THE POWER OF THE PONY COMPELS YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! READ MY POST WHERE I SAID THE EXACT SAME THING I'M SAYING NOW: SHEEP ME ONTO THE DONJOSH WAGON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There is a case on him, posted it a few isos ago. What parts do you disagree with? The game is split over a few wagons and its just stalling out at this point, and its time to push the game ahead. No one else is taking initiative so I am. Game on.
OK, seriously, what the fuck is this? This is some scary shit right here. Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, hell any dictator I can think of said pretty much the same thing.
I could keep going, but there's really no point. It's the same fucking stuff again and again: sheep me, Umbrage is scum but not the lynch, DJ is the lynch even though I can't make a case on him, I'm a fucking humour genius because I can post pony pictures. Yada yada yada. Literally everything Rainbowdash has written is designed to try and take control of the town. She doesn't scumhunt, she takes a few points and repeats them again and again. If someone calls her out, she retreats behind humour. If anyone disagrees with her, she overreacts.
So save yourselves the embarrassment and lynch Rainbowdash. I know what you're thinking: if Rainbowdash is bad for getting people to sheep her, why am I getting you to sheep me? What's the difference?
I don't give a shit, that's the difference. I'm not campaigning for your affection, I don't care if you think I'm funny. I'm not interested in becoming town-super-leader. I don't think any townie would want that, we all distrust ourselves too much. So why is Rainbow trying to take control? I think you know the answer.
V/LA for about a week.
I'll explain it to you. You have to get someone else to understand it for you.
