Yes.

I didn't really get the argument against Ank until we got to his reads changing, at which point I understood it but didn't think it was very good.

The idea that mentioning one of the masons but not the other could be a scumtell is ridiculous. There's no scum motivation, and in fact no reason anyone would do it at all.
You put little effort into answering Koopa's question concerning your case on him (a "yes" is not sufficient). You then comment on the recent events surrounding Ank, saying that you understand the argument but don't agree with it, and you disagree with the "not including both masons" scumtell. In essence, you are putting forth like you are contributing, but in actuality, you aren't saying much.

I was quite behind at the time. I didn't know the status of the Koopa wagon, nor who was on it. The only reason I knew about the hammer was because posts about it ninja'd my post. If I was caught up, I probably would have noticed it.

On to page 126. Going to catch up on this game tonight.

So you criticize and call people scum for questioning a PR claim (mason), but then you proceed to...question a PR claim? This is the most ridiculous attempt to try to mislynch a town PR that I've ever seen. You're going, "Ooooh, scum could have day talk, and they came up with a 2-shot vig that hasn't shot. When some mystery person flips scum, we should lynch the confirmed town, because he was breadcrumbing his role." Seriously, that is ludicrous. There were at least a couple times catching up that I noticed almost blatant breadcrumbing from BEFORE Koopa was ever ran up. Not to mention that if this was a scum gambit, Koopa could have gotten away with claiming one of the night kills (I'm thinking TIP.), instead of admitting that he hasn't shot yet. Essentially, this is pure desperation on your part.

I was going to switch my vote, but this needs to be lynched ASAP.

It really isn't. It's clear that we aren't going to lynch Koopa today, so the argument that DOMO was trying to mislynch it is ridiculous. Setting up for it way down the line, maybe, but there's no way he's trying to do it today. THere's nothing wrong with being a bit paranoid about the claim, his theory isn't so hot, but the thought crossed my mind as well. Koopascum absolutely would not have claimed one of the kills, seeing as when an SK/second mafia turned up or that kill kept appearing after N2 he's be lynched on the spot...

Your opinions lately feel really manufactured. I regret defending you.

Why is ceph defending me so hard? You're the doc slot, right? I went after doc pretty hard d1, I've backed off you a bit but you should be at least a little bit suspicious of me if you're town.

Ceph could be scum trying to bring me down when he flips.

Anyway, bulba...

Of course I'm attempting to discredit you. I think you're scum talking out of your arse.

If you think my paranoid comment is fake, then I assume you feel the previous comment is fake too? You're suggesting that I'm faking retarded town thought process to gain town cred?

And how am I trying to get a town PR mislynched? I notice you didn't quote my unvote of the very same town PR in the very same post. That wouldn't suuport your bullshit case though, would it? Check some rev meta, see my first game where rapid canyon scum pulls out a cop guilty on some guy I can't remember the name of. I smelled a rat then. rapid won lylo becuase I hammered majiffy. My paranoia of these kind of gambits is natural.

I didn't critisise the mason claim because I think it's a retarded fakeclaim. This gambit of cabd's wouldn't be retarded, seeing as it saved koopa to the point he's almost confirmed town. There's potential scum motivation there. But hey koopa claims 2-hshot vig and he didn't shoot, so there's two scum teams to pick him off. I don't expect him to last long, scum or town. So I'm not intending to push for his lynch at all, the idea I'm trying to get a PR mislynched is ridiculous, because how the fuck am I going to talk the town into that? You think I have that much sway?

bulba, you're really stretching now.

I can switch to cephrir though. I don't think anyone has defended me so much before.

If he wants to Counterclaim he's going to have to grow a pair and do it properly, because I am not gonna be dealing with some BS "I NEVER SAID I WAS COP WTF" shit from him tomorrow if we decide to push on the Ank lynch.

leaving that aside, here are some reasons why I don't like Ank's claim

- His initial breadcrumb doesn't look like a breadcrumb at all
- He didn't post that reads list until after koopa claimed
- the symmetry with the earlier claim - 2 shot cop. In a game this size does a limited cop make sense? Site meta?

I thought Marquis was counterclaiming at first but then some of his posts got weird, so I wasn't sure. I think we're going to need him to out with it.

I'm not really defending you DOMO, much as that may have been a side effect, I'm attacking Bulba. While I think there are legitimate criticisms to be made of you, he's reaching to criticize things that aren't scummy, just like he's doing with me. Even if I was defending you though, I don't see what would be wrong with that.

Yeah I'm waiting for marquis to clear things up before thinking too hard about this claim.

And ok ceph, it's just that's not the first time you've countered bulba's points against me before I've had chance to. It's annoying at best, and scummy at worst. Last time someone tried to buddy me hard, it was uberninja in posh. He was scum. So that's why I find it supicious.

Either Marquis should actually counterclaim or we should go lynch someone else. Regardless of whether Ank's claim is legit, Baby Spice is probably clear unless Ank is town fakeclaiming cop with a town result for some reason.

Don't like the BulbaFenix lynch, I still think he's town. Would much prefer a Stevie lynch, but would also be willing to compromise and lynch Ceph or one of the non-Dramonic lurkers.

I had a scumread on Doc and you haven't shaken it. DOMO's point against you is also solid, as much as I hate to admit that he's made a valid point. Stevie wagon isn't gaining traction, so I'm going down my list of reads.

Two-shot cop? Removing WIFOM, you're probably sane, but iunno. It seems weird to have another two-shot role. I'm curious to this: Why'd you investigate Baby Spice? (Assuming you're telling the truth)

The other problem I have with it, not to outguess the mod, but Cop is usually a role that can go on without being limited. Full Vig, on the other hand, could screw up an entire scum team in the right hands or screw a game over for town in the wrong hands.

Then again, I see little benefit (Unless he were Mafia) in lying about it.
