It is extremely difficult for me to refrain from capslock raging at you right now for twisting the point into oblivion and playing stupid.

Hey - MY responses are not increasingly frustrating, since you're after a straight 'yes' or 'no'.

YOURS on the other hand, are inherently obfuscatory, because you're refusing to even clarify what the fuck you mean, and refusing to accept my answer in anything other than 'yes' or 'no' format.

Hey look, I understand, your MO is to lynch the juiciest player who might actually have a late game going on.
Great! Keep about it.

And in the meantime

ANSWER MY FUCKING QUESTION

Are you kidding me? I quoted you, and asked if you thought that behavior was a scum tell or not.

What's so "obfuscatory" about that? Nothing. And using buzzwords to continue avoiding the issue is just another nail in your coffin.

Why don't you state your point rather than hiding it behind a necessary 'yes' or 'no' to a question based on a paraphrased statement you've butchered and presented to me as if it was the statement I made.

Hi, you didn't quote me, you started the sentence with 'Jumping at', just like I did, and then put something else at the end.

That's bullshit.

I didn't think he was scum (but I definitely didn't town read him). The game state would be repaired by his removal and if he ended up being scum that would be a benefit.

Talah. I rephrased what you said. To me, jumping at shadows is the same thing as jumping in all over things which need to take their proper course. It's less words which appeals to me.
That's all
. There is literally no distinction, in my mind, between the two, because I am asking you about something
you said

Five votes, one of which is mine, is barely good wagon analysis.
This is a bit of a problem I had with Pidgeon as well - jumping in all over things which need to take their proper course.
Do you believe the bolded in your quote is a valid scum tell, Yes or No?

Now quote every post you just made where you said "Jumping at shadows", and help me understand the difference, and why you selectively quoted only the posts where you *didn't* say what I was specifically arguing against being the same thing.

"Jumping at shadows" is not the fucking question.

I want to know if what you said about ap is a fucking scum tell to you or not.

What is so goddamn difficult to understand about that?

While you're at it, quote the post where I *Explicitly Answered You*, if indeed your question was regarding what I *actually said* rather than the one that you *made up and which had a different meaning*

Here's a hint: the answer has the word "context" in it.

Literally every player in the post he quoted is town.

If he's looking for scum-me, why not start with my scum game?

THE MIND FUCKING BOGGLES
Please explain to me how being right about your suspects has anything to do with that meta point. I didn't mention scum hunting
prowess
, I simply mentioned scum hunting AT ALL. You haven't done any of it this game.

If Joe Shmoe tells me his mother is in the hospital, and I ask him how her health had been prior to that, and he tells me he doesn't know how to answer me because "health" is such a vague word, I mean.. wut. This is what you are doing. I'm asking you a simple question and you are acting like it's so fucking hard to understand.

p-edit: Talah, you never answered me. You have yet to answer me.

Me: Do you think X is a scumtell?
You: Well what is X?
Me: X is what you said in this post.
You: I can't answer that because you didn't say what I said.
Me: I rephrased what you said because what you said had too many words, but essentially I want to know about you said, of course.
You: But I can't answer that because you didn't say what I said.
Me: Okay, but can you just answer about what YOU said?
You: No because you didn't say what I said.

No, you can clarify what you mean by paraphrasing it as "jumping at shadows".

Otherwise the answer is "possibly, depending on context"

And for the record, "Depends" is a non-answer. It does not answer the question definitively, which does not give me an impression of what Talah is using to find scum, if he's even bothering, which conveniently keeps him in a scumhunting grey zone.

There is ZERO town reasons to do this. Spending 2 pages arguing about semantics and word usage is scummy as fuck, and propagated BY TALAH refusing to answer a very simple question about his methods.

I don't know why I bother interacting with obvious scum. I need to stop doing that.

p-edit: Tell me how that makes any difference to what I want to know?

It depends on the context.

If you're asking me if AP is scum, that's a different matter.

Why are you so stuck on this? I mean I already answered it a couple of posts after you asked.
