Ooooooh, I am the last of the giants,
my people are gone from the earth.
The last of the great mountain giants,
who ruled all the world at my birth.
Oh the smallfolk have stolen my forests,
they’ve stolen my rivers and hills.
And the’ve built a great wall through my valleys,
and fished all the fish from my rills.
In stone halls they burn their great fires,
in stone halls they forge their sharp spears.
Whilst I walk alone in the mountains,
with no true companion but tears.
They hunt me with dogs in the daylight,
they hunt me with torches by night.
For these men who are small can never stand tall,
whilst giants still walk in the light.
Oooooooh, I am the LAST of the giants,
so learn well the words of my song.
For when I am gone the singing will fade,
and the silence shall last long and long

- The Last of the Giants.
(A Song sung by Wildlings)

And you, didn't you ask goat if they were town because if you thought they were town they would be helpful? Why even bother if you're just going to wholesale discount their read?

I do not like either run up at the moment, seeing way too much over reactionary voting... but that is just me. FYI- KKB pretty much has been wagon jumping...part of the reasoning for my vote here...

there is not a thing scummy in any of that behavior. Not a thing. It could go either way.
compare that to KKB's behavior which demonstrates wagon jumping... now if people tell me that is his normal town play, fine, and when I have time it may be concerning enough to meta check...

- My reads are my content

says he "still" reads elle as town
after not mentioning outside of 331

- elle is the first read on my "initial readslist"

"then a couple of scumreads after Thor explicitly asked him to point out some scum for him"

- This is a misrep that makes it sound like I never mentioned scumreads before this - kanye and Shadow were also mentioned in the "initial readslist" (although Cephrir and Garruk reduced on the scummy meter in the few pages in between)

- AlfredBow has not mentioned me anywhere except for the vote - so wanted to know why he thought I was scummy

What content have you provided that blows his out of the water? I certainly haven't seen anything.

First, because the lyrics were posted: Last of the Giants

/tear

Anyway, some reads.

PrideandJoy - Null, Leaning Town

Spoiler:
I'm conflicted on. They came in with a self-vote that would ultimately end RVS (so in essence, good) but they voted a head instead of their hydra, something that actually couldn't be wagoned. While it looks awkward, I think it's the best way to self-vote (and kickstart discussion) without actually self-voting (which would otherwise feel scummy to me) so in this case does the opposite and makes me think towny.
The only thing that made me think otherwise was 277, where for all his non-chalance and uncaring attitude, he seems very concerned to have Tammy's vote on them. But then, it goes along with the early pressure he put on me only a few hours in to 'do town things!'


Ooba - Scummy

Spoiler:
Naked reads always give me a weird vibe when they come without any previous commenting. What strikes me as more odd there is that he has me, of all people, as his only town read in 271.

Doesn't provide anything further on his 'reads' as they are just 'vibes' but these vibes are apparently enough to vote on, just not to elaborate on? Ooba?
In 331, he misreps me by quoting a succession of posting that dubs it down to put me in the worst possible light (I really didn't need help there, yo!) but it's blank, not to mention erases what I am actually answering. When questioned on it, he says it was to 'get an explanation' but doesn't ask a question in the quotes with which to get a reaction.

@Ooba - If I'm your town read, why did you phrase the quotes to paint me as scummy - on top of an accusation of rolefishing on someone who'd already revealed their role? And why do you have me as town?


Tammy
is town. I expected coming into this that if she were scum, she'd have used her paranoia of me from the scum game she modded me in to give weight to an easy vote on me. She didn't. That, combined with the 'happy as fuck to be town' in 104 feels very true throughout her posts.

Shadoweh
I can't really read - but something about the interaction between her and Tammy feels like they're on opposing sides but only between the two, as if they're just going to eventually fight it out to the death betwixt themselves. In which case, I give you: Fight Music!

Thor - FIIK, looking into meta.
His tone at my questioning seemed overly aggressive which is something I'd expect more from town, but the whole DONTQUESTIONMENEWB felt very scummy - but then it was probably the nicest way possible to tell me I'm stupid too so idk.
Going to read the meta soon to see if that's typical as a response. Still don't like the claim but that's just because it's a claim, not because of him specifically.

Just going to second Tierce's questions to him in 373 for now.


The quadz wagon is meh. He got town points for stopping the attempted tunnel on the hydra issue that was taking the thread way off course. I didn't like that he didn't answer my question posed to him on the vote but the unvote didn't strike me as suspicious as it's made out to be. But then, I could be slightly biased, lol. Null atm.
Most of my other reads either aren't worth mentioning or just waiting on more content.

This suggests they are both third party or Shadoweh is scum, no?

Why? It seems pro-town, but not particularly difficult to replicate as scum.
