Also, I forgot to ask earlier, but what are your thoughts on Cheeky?
I do, but he's no longer in the game, so I can't judge his replacement off of that.
She's keeping the conversation going, I respect that. Nothing's certain about alignment, though, imo.
How do we go about trying to sort alignment? For now, having as many people as possible share their first thoughts is a good start.

Nomanssky101 has (expired on 2019-12-13 08:00:00) to confirm before I will start looking for a replacement.
Gyro Zeppeli is being replaced.[/area]

Well I don't understand the votes on ETL. They've only posted once so far and don't seem like a new player so I can't imagine thats a sign of being scum and is probably just them being afk for real life reasons.
As for Gyro I think he's been suspicious from the start but thats just bc of his awkward introduction mistaking Phoenix for someone else which just snowballed. Now that he's banned I can't say I have a good read on his position in the game bc it was kind of all over the place. Will have to reassess that slot once its filled.

Is there a reason you're still voting for him then?

A replacement doesn't change his alignment, so if you found his actions scummy - to a point you were willing to vote pending answer - I don't understand what has changed in the interim.

So it would be town indicative to try and get as many thoughts from players as possible, right?

Yes. A few, actually. Most of his posts are empty without followup; unlike Cheeky, I didn't like his response to having three votes; and, I like the wagon dynamics right now.

Fair. I guess I just wanna give his replacement a chance to defend their role. I do understand why you're sus of him tho.
Still unsure of the wagon on ETL though. What did they do? or is it for memes

I mean, given the fact that there's a scenario where he's Town even though his actions were scummy, it would be a better idea to wait for his replacement.

Absolutely, but I'm not willing to make assumptions based off of that alone.

PenguinPower wrote:Agree with town for now. She can exhibit that behavior as both alignments and had me snowed in our last game together before she repped out.
To both: could you further explain why you believe Cheeky is town?
Poking and prodding around helps generate content, which is especially helpful on D1 when there's nothing else to work with. Generally when scum do it, there tends to be shade involved - or excessive amounts of pressure, depending on playstyle. I don't see signs of either of those here.
In post 96, ArthurConyl wrote:I'm not sure if this is scum behavior, either that or he's really eager to vote. It's also odd that he is totally certain that Cheeky is scum when he hasn't done anything to indicate that. Remember this is his first post and he's certain someone is scum and votes him. I'm voting for him until he explains. VOTE: EspeciallyTheLies
I can think of reasons for both town-ETL and scum-ETL to make that post, so I'm waiting for ETL to return and explain further.
I can also think of both town and scum reasons to jump on the ETL wagon - which vary quite a bit depending on ETL's alignment, so I am hoping she responds sooner rather than later.
I'd be shocked if ETL *and* one of her voters were scum. I'd be similarly shocked if ETL is Town and *none* of her voters were scum.

Why choose to vote for someone who doesn't have any votes on them? How does that get you involved in the scheming?

I feel like Gyro was pretty lynchbaity. Phoenix has become a greater concern which I'll show my working for soon.

Actually I'm pretty happy that Chazary is town based on his stream of thought posting style.

Misquoted^
I need more from Arthur and ETL.
Gyro slot probably town.
Farren probably town.
Pp hard to say but I'm going with town.
Norman still hasn't posted.
Phoenix is a current scumread.

Like you guys were saying just to press them for responses. Looking back Pp was pretty responsive anyway but I guess I just wanted to see his reaction to being voted for since he didn't have any at the time. But also like I said I think I was confused by the way the votes were distributed so maybe im not making sense.
