@ythan: I am trying to figure out if you are going to backtrack, because I don't understand, given the current situation, how relenting could even be an option. Care for explain, sooner or later?
@thil: mmh, if I were in your position, I would have had 2 or 3 names I would have investigated before tmh. Why him and not hohum, who wanted to lynch the claimed "vt" over the cop? Why him and not dana? Why him and not chk, who was the replacement of Lucresia - day 1 hammerer - and the one who started the case on you to save pine?

I'm not backtracking. I've never stated I have absolute proof he is scum. As I clearly stated in that post I am relenting for the moment but may in the future share what information I have for more minds to consider. None of this information is new.

huh, it was supposed to be
who wanted to lynche the claimed cop over the "vt"
...
@Ythan: ok, for the moment, I only say "thanks for the clarification". But fyi, I hd the impression you were saying something more decisive with your hints, and after rereading your iso I still think it was a very legitimate impression to have.

, then: I had the impression you were cc'ing the claimed cop. If you feel like thil is claiming the same role as you, I don't understand why would you decide to "relent".
I am ESL, so I looked up relent in the dictionary. Is my point clear now?

See, but he's not going to get any incorrect results - he's not going to get any, period. Either he's going to continue the 'OH I WAS ROLEBLOCKED' charade, or if he's actually town he's just going to continue to be roleblocked.
Essentially, you are giving him a free pass for the rest of the game.

WIFOM. It's certainly not a town-tell, it's probably null. But, as I've said, it is something I would do as scum.

What will this achieve (giving thil time)? He's already very scummy, are you suggesting that if he suddenly starts being less scummy we should excuse his past scummy behaviour and focus on his actual content just because he's claimed cop (who doubtless will be 'roleblocked' for the rest of the game)?

How so? Thil's post was a truly awful post. As of that post, I would have no idea at all whether thil found Ythan's attacks scummy or not. Did that not concern you?

That's not a contradiction. The first post is just a different way of saying thil is scummy because he joins wagons without explaining why.

I was thinking something along the same lines as lewarcher, though not necessarily a counterclaim, just some sort of role-related info.

Since you don't even know who he was talking to, I don't think you really understand the situation. But the nuance you choose to read into that is your decision. I see plain English words that are obviously contradictory.

@patb: he is right, it's dana I am talking about, not thil.
@dana: poor attempt at using (poor) semantics to deny the evident meaning of my words. "you know what would make you look less scummy? posting longer and more!" just means "you are scummy because of your rare and short posts, post longer and more". All in all, your reaction and your countervote is even worse than an omgus. it's an omgus+blatant attempt at misrepping.
mod: V/LA for the next 24 hours. Cannot help it, it's work related.

2)Ythan because he was the primary pusher of the thil case both D3 and now D4. Ythan because I have a much stronger scum read on him. Of course, what I said can be useful to the whole of town, but I was asking questions TO Ythan in that post, and thus it was primarily meant for him.

Look at what I've been saying about him trying to cover for a cc. If I could cc him with a cop claim I would have done it as soon as possible and he'd be dead.
Thanks Pinky for the reminder Pinky, but I am going to keep my vote. He's a terribly scummy player, whether or not I my straw breaks his camel-back.

You should listen to your own advice, Ythan.
I was under the same impression as most people were in thinking you had compromising information on thil. If you don't, I'm not gonna support a thil lynch no matter how scummy he is. There are scummy players by default, but given the circumstances of an un-cc'd cop claim with a correct guilty, thil is not the lynch for today. And if you would be willing to risk your lynch based on supposedly a read only, you might wanna work on your ego. Lastly, the fact that you have no clear number two suspect stresses the fact that you are shutting everything else out and that you, indeed, are tunneling on thil.
@thil
What made you change your mind on TMH? And while you have been on the defensive side for the better part of the day, you need to share your supsects. And I don't want the "I'm basically in agreement with everybody else. No need to reiterate" routine again.

You're missing a rather obvious alternative. That thil is a roleblocker.
Dana's vote is all sorts of bad, even to the point that it that it almost feels he thinks he's genuinely right about finding this "contradiction". But there was no clear indication why he left the thil wagon in the fist place.
Dana, you said "Lew's not looking very town", making it look like this was a pre-existing mindset of yours before finding that contradiction. Can you dig up some more scummy things about lew?
