Voting Pdra NOW avoiding TH wagon for horseshit "RL excuses" ?



I'm sorry but I really believe in this, I've caught a lot of scum with it, and most recently in Ladies Night. Check out Telo and Amrun in particular.

With a 3-headed hydra, there is even more reason to believe in a strategic choice rather than actual RL hindrances.

The thing about RL excuses is that you are beating potential attacks to the punch by making statements that are unverifiable to excuse past, present and especially future behavior. In Amrun's particular case, you can add pulling at heartstrings - she's now done this twice in games with me when she was scum.

I do think that Thunderhog IS scummy, similarly for beating potential attacks by using a "careful" playsstyle as an excuse.

I could have voted either right now, but P-dra's very blatant RL-excuses scumtell was just too gross for me to let it pass.

And then my mason is hot to vig him so... he's not voting for him either.


Except, what was the strategic advantage in doing so? I mean, I get that three heads all vanishing immediately looks odd, but I can't think of any reason why Pdra-scum would decide: "Hey, let's all disappear right now and claim an RL excuse!". I mean, it's hardly like Pdra is a lurker who might otherwise rely on an RL excuse to pad out the length of acceptable lurking time.

If he's not interested in scumhunting and he's town, that means he's dead weight and should replace out.

My vote should be on Thunderhog but for some reason it seems to have consistently been on Wyrd for the past few votecounts.

Because I don't think he's scum, just a potty-mouthed townie.

VOTE: Thunderhog

Finally got around to catching up. TH is as good a lynch now as he was before. I find it particularly telling that, at least from what I can glean, the timeline worked kinda like this:

TH posted pretty actively with big ol' quote posts.
Momentum on TH starts. He keeps posting.
Momentum stalls somewhat but isn't GONE. I unvote him.
TH goes radio silent (has not posted since Monday)

My point being this: he feels like his posting got him in some trouble because he's been pretty scummy. So first he goes for the direct try. His towniness-through-honesty for example:

Damned right I'm trying to word my posts carefully! I got damned-near shanked a couple pages back for wording my posts 'incorrectly'. You bet your ass I'm being careful now.


When I first read this I actually thought it sounded somewhat town. But the more I thought about it, it seems like he's almost mad that technicalities are catching him.

But when that didn't "free" him from attention, his response was to disappear and lurk now that momentum had stalled. He saw that at least some people were getting off his wagon (e.g. me), and thought just slipping out would work.

Looking over TH, the main new stuff I see is that his posts are very defensive and can have a tone that doesn't seem very town-oriented (mocking Gamma as a "seeker o' scum" in 1610 is a big one). I can see that, but I also think a handful of what he's down is kinda newbtownie. For example, I don't see the scum motivations in his votes for Wyrd or Gamma. I guess it could just be bad scum play.

I'd be OK with Thunderhog at deadline if need be. I don't think he'd be a very tragic mislynch as the WCS. Still, but I'd prefer a hydralynch. I think we have a decent shot of hitting scum from any of those three. It's more high risk/reward, but I think it's worth it given what transpired, and Faraday's "wouldn't do that as scum" stuff doesn't convince me (e.g., as it ignores why he'd do it as town).

Alrightish I mean there's a lot of posts but not that much content to go on. I dunno re-reading them in ISO they seem more neutral than anything so that's unhelpful.

@Zoid: To be honest in this game I'd rather have hi who has been reading along and has some idea on how the game has gone than some poor replacement who has to read through the 70 pages of "content" this town has produced. So no I won't say he's dead weight.
@Wyde, there is no reason. Zor makes a good caste though so: VOTE: Thunderdog

Drench and TH's posts regarding hydras are what makes me think this way - Looks like they setting us up.
