your whole argument feels kinda stupid/pointless to me, but not in a sense of "scum pushing an agenda trying to get someone mislynched", or even "buddies distancing", just... pointless. "you're inconsistent" "no, you're inconsistent" "you're flip-flopping" "i wanted to vote kanna" "no i wanted to vote kanna first why are you voting kanna" "why are you unvoting now" "no u" "no u" "omgus"
like i'll admit that maybe i'm not reading y'all's posts closely enough but this is pretty much all i've gotten from the argument.
I think you're not reading what I'm reading. I'm saying he's inconsistent. I'm not screaming. There's literally no emotion in what I'm saying.

I really dislike this post
That last line is something I would say as scum to fake town cred
Plus your 761 was so flimsy man. You're attacking me for my consistency (and even claimed OMGUS, which isn't even a scumtells in and of itself) even though I felt that my pushes were coming from a genuine place. Everything just felt so convenient that you were "content" with my wagon because my push was inconsistent
Occasionally a Scum player will use it to cover a strategic vote, feigning outrage to get someone else closer to a lynch.
You've basically flipped on anyone that has voted you.
In post 912, DoctorPepper wrote:"your lack of logic in your voting pattern" - because I offered a truce from Ico as I felt that our fight was going nowhere and my pivot to QQ, a player I thought was a good lynch from the beginning of the game.
That's a direct misrep. I said your voting logic is flawed, for reasons I've alluded to above. You effectively vote for anyone voting you. Which, to me, is always a curious tell as it feels like you're sweating under pressure of vote and have something at stake.

actually i agree with that last line thing
it's the definition of Look At Me I'm So Town
There's nothing I can say against that except I am town?
I genuinely am interested in lynching scum. Deliberate mislynches I think are lazy and only benefit scum.
I feel like what you're doing is effectively drilling people and casting shade, which you can revisit in later phases. This isn't scum hunting, it's obfuscation.
But if ever I do get lynched today, I feel like we should take a look at the most opportunistic vote in the lot
VOTE: DrewSta
This is a really bad push and something to look for on Day 2.
Your post is negligent. It ignores other peoples flip floppyness but focusses on one person (tunnelling or deliberate ignorance - uncertain), ignores the fact I have sat on Kanna most of this phase, then saw your inconsistency and considered it scum based and adjusted with other players to work toward a lynch. My flip from Kanna does not mean I consider them town, but a decision to work with people towards towns best interests.
Your obvious attempt to derail focus is clear. I genuinely consider you scum.
And you're not? Hypocritical and a liar to boot. Lynch all liars.

Drew pushing me to'take a look at kanna and then freaking out when i do is ehm strange?
It's not strange at all. I'm trying to understand why you would look at Kanna and adjust the train off Dr when it was moving ahead productively and we had some consensus on them being scum. You effectively derailed your own train, and it reads as suspicious. As if you bussed your partner and then needed to get them off the hook.
In post 854, Kanna wrote:I really don’t like this constant pushing to L1 then switching targets because it’s honestly just rolefishing
No, it is not. It gives insight. If someone claims, it's information we can use later on to determine if they're lying or not.
PRs/Positions are non-indicative of alignment, scum can roll anything from Jailkeeper Captain to a no PR Ensign. Why do you think scum have any reason to lie about claims or counterclaim?
How confident are you on Ico + Doctar?
>>$ Hectic
Can I make this really clear - I've not scum read Ico at all. Why do people keep saying that?
I am reasonably confident both Kanna and Dr's inconsistency match scum behaviour. So yes. Confident as I can be on D1.

I could be convinced on Drew; I don't like his overconfidence on the Doc or his Ico bussing proposal.

I never bussed Ico at all. That's a massive misrep.
In post 959, Euphony wrote:revisiting my early game exchange with drew-sta, it is possible that his asking me why i did not post about patterns i did not notice was simply a misunderstanding in the same way that it is possible that alduskkel simply misinterpreted my reasoning for my early game push on drew-sta. however, here:
drew-sta said he missed a post that he had previously replied to, after i pointed out that he provided the exact reasoning for my early game approach that i had previously given. as though he wanted to look like he was solving and naturally reached the correct conclusion.
This is again shade based and exactly what you did with the meta reading earlier in the day.
I make a mistake by not seeing something, and you're literally claiming it as a scum tell. That's weak logic and is totally against how you have previously tried to create a case on people in this game.

BTW, I started making my post about two hours ago as the kids have been up. I will respond to more when I get time but I'm taking the kids to the park.
I've no problem being lynched as that is life, but the reasons for it are poor and I would like the chance to at least finish responding to things and give my read list or things to watch out for before you hammer (if it gets to that point).

i think i've a couple of times noticed you/pepper posting very close to each other after a decent period of not posting. i can't genuinely get anything AI out of that, now am i sure it's not my own confbias, but it felt weird so i pointed it out.

this kinda looks like PR hunting at first but if it were

your vote on me is reasonable from an outside perspective, but I don't see anything alignment-indicative about it yet
The Mafia team is composed of 2 players who are randomly assigned to any rank and role in the game (They can be officers. If either of them are officers the secondary win condition does not apply). They have two win conditions A) outnumber the town/endgame them or B) kill the entire officer command structure (Captain, Commander, and Lieutenant). There are 6 random possible power roles in this game. However, only 3 (randomly decided) are actually in the game. The rest are Vanilla. Also, you know there cannot be multiple instances of one role.
Just say that you don't care about your officer command structure now?
Are you just neutrals hanging around with whatever floats your boat because you received a message saying you're an ensign?
That's absolutely not permissible as the definition of Ensign is:
Ensign is a junior rank of a commissioned officer in the armed forces of some countries, normally in the infantry or navy.
Therefore "it does not suck to be you" as stated in this post:
Just promise me you'll take a look at Ico and Euph after you lynch me ayt?
@Dr, why did you flip from Q to Ico so fast?
Because QQ is a viable lynch for me too and you can see that in my voting patterns
I've recognized that my 1v1 with Ico is more harmful to town because of the circular nature of the discussion
VOTE: Drew-Sta
WTF? This actually makes no sense. DrP is the one saying you're a viable lynch. All I've seen from you is what appears to be a post condition and that's it.
FTR: This is exactly the same thing in different words as my suggesting that I'm not here to mislynch townies. It is inconsistent to let this go past without condemning it if you condemn what I said.
I'm only exposing this as it is interesting that DrP highlights that post by me as significant in his vote. But then doesn't highlight this.

In post 976, OkaPoka wrote:qq literally is never going to matter or have his claim be taken seriously esp since he is not claiming captain
That might be his point. Won't get NK'd by mafia, surfs through to the end, then comes good. Might be a tactic. Not saying it is, but I've seen crazier shit. I faked a post condition in a themed game on another site to pretend to be a character they would associate as town. Had I not fucked up a night action choice, I would have won.

In post 988, Kanna wrote:A hypothetical question for Ico; would you, as a town ensign be willing to be the lynch?
just *would* you?
This is just madness. It's like the ultimate way to gain mislynch excuse - 'We eliminated a towny to narrow down the pool, it was a bad choice I get it but Ico wanted to do it!!'
In post 998, Kanna wrote:as in DP said he would be fine with being the lynch because he believes his flip will help
I’m just wondering if Ico has a different stance
p-edit: *shrug* I just wanted to see what kind of answer he would give
Someone suggesting their own lynch benefits town is one thing. I personally believe if I do get lynched it will reveal things. I accept that. Doesn't mean I want it.
Asking someone to agree to that type of lynch is totally ridiculous.
