I think you are more likely to be scum than the other players who seem like they might get lynched in the next 24 hours, which basically means more likely than Andy or Who.- Iecerint

Victor,
I did read, and see them. I wasn't saying you didn't have any, and I apologize for not being clear. In the interest of time it might be best not to WALLPOST and just get a list of reads out there. From what I've seen you dont Magna/Andy WALLQUOTEBLOC post, so that won't be a problem but I'd rather see a list of reads than links/quotes. I'm also attempting to change my posting pattern to be more clean. I did not mean to be rude, was just trying to get at the important thing (reads) in the limited time we have. Does that make sense?
Victor wrote:I'm curious Andrius, do you have a no-lie policy?
A lie that everyone believes is still a lie.
No? I try not to, that is. Granted, there have been some great plays from lies/gambits, but Pine's I fought bitterly because it was shallow and poorly prepared. Does that make sense? Its all about delivery.
Victor wrote:Is there a town benefit to your actions I'm missing?
Cutting out the bullcrap from a poorly-prepared gambit. I don't mean to be rude, Pine, but I imagine that a claim that outlandish would need to be better prepared to fly.
If I thought we could actually use it, I might have let it sit. Claim's too preposterous to believe, especially with ShadowDancer.
That'd be like someone claiming a Sane Cop in a hitogoroshi game. The man made a wall about how bad Cops are in games in MD back when I was here last.
Perhaps I've become a bit more of a stick in the mud since I left.

Yes, but I don't see random votes here. I see people (like myself) voting who we think is most likely scum, even if that person is you (or me in your case).

There was actually a pretty long time-lag between it starting and Andy doing that FWIW. People seemed to totally avoid the thread. I felt like ABR and I were the only ones here. But it was around New Year's IIRC.
This is accurate. Pine, Iece, ABR, and I were posting. And all of our reactions are accounted for."This is the true face of a man who plays paladin."- FourTrouble

Can you be more concrete? What specific behaviors make you think Andy/Who are likely town, or me likely scum?
I think Andy accounted for basically all but one of my concerns several pages ago, roughly around the time when I unvoted him. I also think that his activity right now even after he has become basically probably not the lynch is a towntell.
WhoHyda was a null read for me that became a townread when the other head (I think) stepped in and pushed a wagon on someone who wasn't low-hanging fruit. It was like right after ABR and I had been in a little fight or something IIRC. I don't even remember who he pushed -- I think it was kinda crap IIRC -- but I thought the push was at least non-lazy. I am relatively wary of Who because it might just be that the other head is more similar to me in how they approach the game or something.
In your case, I sometimes get ideas that you might be town in the previous few pages, but you also make some claims in the previous few pages that seem like they try to ignore context to convince me of something. Earlier when Who and others stepped in and involved themselves in things to affect the outside, my perception was that you were content to mostly be an observer, my inference being that maybe you were scum who either was happy not being the center of attention and/or wasn't sure how to join discussion without becoming the center of attention. Your counerpoint (meta defense, shifting burden of proof to me) I found obnoxious because, even or I guess especially if true, it's adopting an easy-to-play-but-scummy town meta on the grounds that it will simplify your scum game, which I think is a way that the site has changed in the previous year that I dislike, which made me less willing to do work on your behalf to prove you town to me, etc.- Iecerint

ABR being scum crossed my mind as I was typing that out. The main townie thing though would be shifting the wagon to Victor at the one point, which could also be consistent with FT being scum I think. Not totally clear off the top of my head on which wagon was most dominant at that time.- Albert B. Rampage

I don't play this way to simplify my scum game - my scum game looks very different - and I don't think the way I play as town is scummy - it's just grounded in different principles. If you don't believe me, just look at my scum game: http://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=25648 and http://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=84&t=25716. From what I can tell, you'll probably think my scum game is more towny than my play here lol...- FourTrouble

his reads have NO DEPTH and this is the problem I have had with you all game; you make comments like this that are simply not true while ignoring reads that actually have depth to them. you were a weakscumread and I voted you mostly to sheep andy WHO IS A STRONG TOWNREAD and then you went to vote any wagon that looked like might grow legs that wasn't your own, your reads do not come from a town mindset you cahnge them the second some1 else changes their mind to me it doesn't really look like you are trying to sort the game out. to me the only reason it looks like you are townreading gilga is cos they are townreading YOU which is blatantly survivalistic and points to scum motivation not town.I could remember how my father used to say that the reason for living was to get ready to stay dead for a long time.- FourTrouble

Waiting for a claim from 4Trouble
His controlled-panic posting pattern looks like scum that is dead to rights, but might be able to weasel out at deadline if they work hard enough
The logic of mislynches are bad->Town should fight like hell for a no lynch on D1 doesn't wash for me. Town that weasels out of being mislynched will be the topic of debate D2 if they force a no lynch, and they'll effectively screw Town out of two shots instead of one
PE Shut up, Southern Gothic. Bad attacks on scum are worse than staying quiet. Gilgamesh's reads are fine, and contain depth. Undercutting 4Trouble for saying stuff that isn't false only helps him play the victim"Cry havoc, and let slip the wombat of war!"
