Morning loves. That took literally an hour to read in one go so sorry if my memory of what I read isn't crystal clear.
First, I feel like I have to clear up the air wrt/ Jester. I actually agreed with his logic on the IC, I just didn't think Cerb was scum for it because he proposed super early. But basically I think town should shy away from the IC so that scum would be forced to pair with them and not expel them over the intermission. As for my defending him, I'll give you 3 reasons:
1) I literally joined this game just for him. Of course I'm not going to allow a quicklynch.
2) He's been lynched before over bs reasons and his reads were actually pretty accurate, but town wrote him off and lost.
3) I know his style, and if he's scum I'll figure it out eventually. But he's *not* going to be scum for """lurking""" or """scum pair with IC""".
Okay *takes a deep breath*.
I still think Shadow is scum. For me it was less the scumslip and more the ad hominem ("go back to newbie games") + however you call it when you reach for the easiest way to make someone look scummy and they can't disprove/defend themselves from it (e.g. "look how she went quiet, obviously ran out of mislynches to set up").
I'm unsure about Gamma. I've played like 3 games with em and e was scum in 2 of them, but e reads different *every time*. Anyway, I caught em pretty quickly the first time so I can put em on hold for now.
I don't know who else I thought was scummy... vague suspicion on whoever defended Shadow?

MariaR's entire scumgame is just to act cutesy so that all the men in the game don't wanna lynch her becoz it hurts their chances of having teh sexes chat with her, ergo she's scum now because AAAAHH EMOTION-NAL P-POSTING PLZ D-DONT HURT MEEE
Also that quick pairing with probscum Shadow isn't good

I've never been this close to emotionaly subbing out in a game before ty
Open 657 - Making Friends and Enemies?
(you know, the game where we both actually *did* emotionally sub out)
I agree with you though, that was pretty dickish of Gamma and also I think you're town. GAMMA I THOUGHT YOU WERE AN SJW LIKE ME, WHAT'S UP WITH THIS.
