this scum pool is incredibly lame. you really think the only active person who is scummy is self voting? and that scum isn't attempting to direct today's lynch?

its almost like this reads list is fake...

My reasoning has nothing to do with activity - what they have managed to post I am not impressed with. But, yes, I feel most of the active people, of which there really are not that many, are town.

hm?

6 posts and i'm at the top of your reads list....?

Dr Pants · Post Post #407 (ISO) » Wed Jul 16, 2014 9:34 am

its for *undisclosed reasons* but trust me its not a gut thing, basically in my mind you townslipped

Dr Pants · Post Post #408 (ISO) » Wed Jul 16, 2014 9:35 am

For full disclosure, I'm having a hard time focusing on this game (and all my games) due to some unexpected shake-ups at my work that mean some of my friends, including my boss, are being laid off during a major restructuring. This means tons of meetings that started early last week and currently take up a lot of energy and create a lot of stress. I don't want to replace out (especially given the fact that we're already looking for two replacements) but it's fair to say that at least for the next week I'm going to be somewhat less active than my average. I apologise for that, but I could not have foreseen it when I signed up for the game.

I think RSD is town. I don't have any kind of read on TheGottemer, though. If it were guaranteed that one member of the neighbourhood was scum, it would be Gott; however, I don't feel that this is at all guaranteed. All three can be town. I've seen similar emotional responses from DGB (I am SURE I have said this before) and while I admit it's possible she's scum, why would she ask to be lynched as scum? There's no scum motivation for what she's doing. I don't know what the town motivation is, other than her own stated I'm-sick-of-this-shit reason.

I think Slandaar is null; I like some of his early postings, but I don't really see how you can look at DGB's postings and think this is scum-DGB. Maybe it's because I have lots of meta for her, though.

@DGB: I don't really think it matters how I read Mastin; in the end I'm sleeping with fate or sleeping with the fishes anyway. Right now real life is kicking my butt pretty comprehensively. If things improve there, I'll revisit the read minus the OMGUS. Fair enough?

I don't know what's wrong with AD speculating on the NK, but I don't get his logic on it at all. Why assume a vig when there's only one kill? It's not guaranteed that Omar is in the game, is it?

Looking at my own wagon (now and historically), I think Dr. Pants and Messiah Complex are probably town. I don't have much to go on with Jackal711, and BBMolla reads null/scum to me not just because he was third on my wagon. I've said my piece on Mastin2 and I'm not going to repeat all that again.

On DGB's wagon, I think DGB and RSD are town. I don't have much of a read on Antihero, but I was leaning town on him because Mastin2 read him as scum before he even entered the game.

I don't really have a lot to go on for most other players. I thought Muki was scummy, but he's requested replacement. I have zero opinion of BBT and he's also requested replacement. I don't like SKOT voting someone who is being replaced and can't possibly defend himself.

So yeah. If my level of activity is unacceptable to you guys, I will replace out. If it's okay, though, then I'll stay in until I'm lynched, NKed or vigged by hypothetical Omar.

When you make the big reveal remind me to explain why it isn't.

Dr Pants · Post Post #415 (ISO) » Wed Jul 16, 2014 11:17 am

ok! I'll be sure to do that!

I'm a little upset that you're probably gonna kill me tonight though

This game is really slow no posts in 12 hours...

Pants; I'm town.

Bit slow here on our end, we're collecting our reads right now, but I think we both agree to return to this vote for the time being:

Vote: DGB

Bad DGB.

you should explain your RSD and messiah complex reads more.

I believe I am comfortable with vote. I would have no problem switching back to DGB.

Without going back and rereading (something I don't have time or energy to do at the moment) I can explain my reads on RSD and MC in brief:

First, DGB (whom I believe to be town) thinks RSD is town. She's angry with him, but she doesn't point to him as potential scum. RSD's posts seem genuine to me and I understood his reasoning (even when he was voting for me, yes). Based on tone and general reactions to Sala's gambit and to ongoing events in the game, I feel that RSD is probably town.

Messiah Complex had a couple of posts (and I will just paraphrase, since I'm due to go into a meeting in like four minutes) in which he commented about the red-blue issue with role PMs that I found very similar to my own experience. If I remember right, MC claimed D'Angelo during the traitor/scum/flavour discussion. D is at least a controversial character in the flavour; why would scum call attention to themselves like that?

Sorry I don't have more time, but hopefully that helps explain those two reads.
