For reference, Garuga, this is the post where Hopkirk voted TehBrawl.

I misremembered, the post I was actually talking about was 81. I think the "find some town in the smart sheepers" bit is manipulative. TiAM is TwoInAMillion. In general, I think we need to wait on TiAM and Voyc since those two haven't posted much content yet.

What's scummy about it?

Your point was that Saudade didn't have any content to his posts. Knuf only has two posts, but there's lots of content, enough to know he's looking for scum. But Voyc has less content than Saudade...

To clarify, my problem with having little content in your posts. i.e. making posts, and also having no content in them. Knuf gets a pass since has content, Voyc gets a pass because doesn't have posts yet.

No. TiaM has been here since RVS, Voyc hasn't. They're not the same at all.

I liked TiaM's post #85. Don't see why scum would defend me there.

I didn't. Scum doesn't care whether or not they're defending you there, they care that Screen is a non-offensive place to vote-park that doesn't disrupt any of the major wagons too much. Thinking about it, I actually like that vote even less. VOTE: TiaM Let's go.

I think it's trying to frame sheeping Hopkirk as the smart and towny decision.

True. After checking his ISO, I found out Gustavo has even less content than TiaM, and I don't like the way he checked out of the thread so antagonistically.. VOTE: Gustavo

I read it as disruptive of a major wagon (mine), but I understand your point.

I think his post voting Byron has content. I disagree with his conclusion, but it's still content. I also read Gustavo's tone as Town.

At this point, I'd rather keep building pressure on Byron than splitting votes on TiaM or Gustavo, though I wouldn't mind competing wagons. Gustavo gets a pass for now because Byron's voting him.

Still has less content than TiaM though. 92 and 101 are his only 2 non-RVS content posts, compared to TiaM having 4 content posts.

It's not about quantity of content, it's about perspective. Gustavo's vote on Byron felt town.

Garuga, why are you reading Byron as town? Look at 84, so many words to say basically nothing.

Perhaps we see things differently. In TiaM's ISO, I really only see his first post as having any content. The others are pretty neutral points that don't really rock the boat that much.

oops I linked the wrong iso

If voting Srceenplay is "non offensive" then it means that it's a good vote, considering I'm the first one to do it, and there's a lot of crappy votes out there. Trying to wagon me for a good vote is really bad. Besides that, there's nothing in my post that says I'm trying to be non offesnive, you are psychoanalyzing me and twisting my words.

I don't post shit just for the sake of posting shit, when I have something to say I'll say it and say what I mean.

He seems like a townie that wants to make useful posts, he just doesn't know what to post yet. I'm keeping an eye on him though, if he doesn't improve the quality of his content I'm going to reconsider my read.

Ironically, that's pretty much exactly what I think 87, 89, and 95 were.

It's not a good vote, it's a bad vote that's not obvious about being a bad vote. It's a pretty classic scenario, where Scum votes on a player who's playing weird/derp in a way that's NAI. Screen's been playing weird, and generally speaking, players don't take issue with votes on someone who's been playing weird. It's not a good vote, because weird =/= Scum, but it's less glaringly bad than a lot of the stuff Scum fabricate when they need to make stuff up, so it's usually safe.

Hypothetically speaking, if you were Scum, and wanted to vote to appear proactive without really changing the big wagons or sticking your neck out, what would you do? Cast a soft vote on an easy target, not really push it or do anything with it, and go on to make some neutral comments. That's what you did to a T.

I didn't vote srceen on the basis of being wierd, I voted him on the basis that his logic was poor on his vote.

And in case you hadn't noticed, it's only page 6 and not a lot has happened yet. This is what's called making mountains out of molehills.

Tiam you wanna be my friend this game?

We'll see. Why me?

Strong gut you are town.

We'll go with it for now. What's your record on your gut reads?
