Guys, when did this stupid change in site meta happen that VCA is so sacred? What the hell is the merit of posting some random votecounts, colouring the names, and leaving it at that? It's just fucking stupid and you shouldn't waste your time doing it. We didn't waste our time doing this back in 2008, and nothing has changed so dramatically that it's now necessary. Nobody looks at it anyway above a quick skim. It is not saying anything. It isn't scumhunting. It does absolutely nothing other than making you look 'protown'.
The only instance in which you should do it, is when you are prepared to actuallyanalyzeyour data with statements such as 'x was scum because of their position on wagon y on day z'. Not if you are just going to dump your data here, like Spyrex did (oh how he has fallen ! he is such a sub-par player nowadays while he used to be so good ! ).- Elscouta

I reread day 1, and the Tierce push on JacobSavage looks genuine. The triple request of a claim (per PV case) is a slight concern, but definitely not enough to remove the town points for forcing the scum rolecop to claim day 1.
.
However, i'm concerned about something. Sho and me have been reasonably widespread townreads, with a strong town read on each other. We have been "reasonably" active. We are day 5, and neither of us are dead. This does not compute.
So I tried to look a bit at the opinions of the dead people, especially regarding Tierce.
- chamber died n1, and he was really pushing Tierce-scum
- TIP died n2, and he was pushing ABR. He questionned Tierce towards the end of the day, and seemed to have kept the case "for later".
- MafiaSSK died n3. Guess who he was voting towards the end of his life : Tierce.
- Death of ABR is pretty neutral given he was confirmed town, and didn't do anything else than votehop on every single wagon.
So yeah. Three dead people, 3 people suspecting Tierce. Two reasonably high NK targets (shos and me), and one thing in common: never attacked Tierce during the first 3 days.
Vote: TierceI'm town. Please lynch someone else.- sirdanilot

no, you *should* take it slow. there's no need to rush. I like PV's posting; and I'm gonna be halfassed about tierce because gut says she's town, and because I really don't know how sirdan is still alive. of course if we're anywhere near DL I'll be voting tierce.
meanwhile I want to ISO shadow and JS and seearch there.In post 836, Lucky2u said:

I'm not even sure it matters that much given Jacob just claimed to have targetted ActionDan N3 when he said just last page that his actions N2 and N3 had been the obvious one.
Vote: Jacob
Desperado is still a good bet for scum for dropping his Shadowehread so discretely and then never showing any interest in that angle (nor having anything except the most generic possible excuse to justify it).

So, literally every person in this game except for PV then is shitty and not pro-town.Okay tell me on what earth would a not-shitty pro-town player not have seen at that point that Shadow was obvscum.
I don't buy it. Also she is lurking, trying to avoid my accusation.
Including yourself at day end.
Just want to be sure thats clear.
If this goes through and is town, I want to be very clear that I am going to enjoy when the inevitable powerlynch on Esp happens at lylo.

This is ridiculous. No, I didn't care about Jacob after he claimed, because he claimed Bodyguard. I was pushing CES and ABR, so too bad so sad if that's not enough for you that I kept Jacob's claim in mind while analyzing things. You're being disingenuous and taking things out of context to suit you. Majiffy votes Jacob near deadline, with no intent to compromise or actually push him, and I called him out on that. And I voted Shadoweh because I found Majiffy's crumb and everyone followed. Jacob's bussing of Shadoweh is not my problem.In post 1889, PeregrineV wrote:
Actually, after his claim, you had NO interaction with him. Period.In post 1863, Tierce wrote:

Weak Doctor balances like a Cop, not like a Doctor.
Something else that came to mind, if Shieldrender is indeed Strongman--they could Jail someone and kill them. Roleblock + Kill OP.
shos, saying something scum also did is not a scumtell--their job is to look Town. And PV's posts are not coming from a Town player who actually read my ISO when he says that I ignored JacobSavage, so...?

Why the heck would you, as Town, want him to claim this?
It's pretty obvious. If JacobSavage is scum and is ever tracked anywhere but the person he claims to protect, he's dead. If he's rolecopped and shown to be lying, he's dead. NONE of this nonsense you're asking would ever help Town.And you defend him here:

200 posts later, Jacob flips scum.In post 1573, Tierce wrote:Regarding Jacob, I agree. I was thinking yesterday that one of {ABR, Jacob} had to be scum, but SSK flipping tracker pretty clearly means that one extra protection that doesn't alter the lynch threshold + Aegor's role makes sense as Town in a game that starts at evens, while ABR being fakeclaiming scum slots in nicely with the silly amount of investigative roles.
ActionDan, PeregrineV, profit.
I am thrilled with sirdanilot's descriptions of my Town play. He has managed to praise it far more than I ever will, never knew I was a goddess at this game. Thank you!
That's not my kill pattern. As scum, my priority is Town-looking targets, because they're not lynchable--everyone in a game will likely suspect you at one point or another, so it's pretty stupid to leave a paper trail like that. shos and you would likely have been kill targets for me if I were scum.In post 1926, Elscouta wrote:I reread day 1, and the Tierce push on JacobSavage looks genuine.

No. And if I were scum, you'd be giving me an out to throw a beautiful emotional tantrum when that fake hammer happened. Stop assuming people can't count if they roll scum, I know how to react "post"-hammer as scum because I'm a goddess at this game with my ~womanly wiles~.

Ecthelion > Gandalf, obv.
Given that you have yet to state any sort of way my posts are not my Town play when you just played with me and that PeregrineV is pushing a terrible case when the person who knows me best is V/LA, damn right I'm certain. Elscouta is another possibility given the lack of analysis earlier and the "let's look at dead Town's reads on Tierce" without studying their reads on other people, including the dead scum. I'd put money on these three lynches winning the game.In post 1940, ActionDan wrote:

Tierce you're drivin me nuts this game.
AD - scum means JS tossed him out in his nonsense night action claims which I have a hard time buying assuming rationality but..JS so maybe.ActionDan, PeregrineV, profit
But then PV is the one who insta-votes him for it?
One man down, another on the block and two others (more likely than not the entire rest of the scumteam) throw themselves out in a way that isn't gonna stop that lynch or even really make them look better for it?
I have a hard time choking that down.
---
But, your exchange today feels good and right, especially with AD. I'm still not thrilled about xRECKx early and doubly so on ABR which served as an esp shield.
Guess its a good thing I don't have to think about it too hard *rimshot*- sirdanilot

No one "refuted" your case because there isn't anything to refute, it's just a recitation of the facts. Tierce pushed JS early, forced him to claim along with someone who flipped scum, and then largely ignored him the rest of the game. This is scummy...why? He was a claimed BG in a large game, which is exactly the kind of thing that resolves itself and isn't worth wasting time on and, lo and behold, he fucked up his night actions! Imagine that.In post 1921, PeregrineV wrote:Everyone has posted and no one has refuted my initial case on Tierce. Then, when I went back to look some more, it only reinforced it. Furthermore, no one has a single better reason for any other player.
And Ihavepresented better reasons for sirdan, I've just been consistently stonewalled by an endless string of shitty pseudo-town clears for him, the latest being your "you think sirdanscum saw JSscum drowning and forced him to claim while still distancing? Impossible!" track.- Desperado

Spoiler: Context for Shadoweh's sirdan vote d2
Shadoweh's vote on sirdan comes AFTER Majiffy has stated that he will not push the sirdan wagon to a lynch, and the immediate reaction is that a NL is imminent. Shadoweh puts sirdan at L-3 with ABR, Majiffy, and Jacob all staying off sirdan; as deadline approaches Tierce switches, followed by AD (who said he's "not gonna do it unless Shadoweh yells at him a lot" because he "doesn't want it and there aren't enough people anyway") and then we NL'd anyway.
Speaking of, AD:
