it could just as easily be a town tactic used to suffocate scum voices :roll:
Marginalizing voice is never a town tactic because town needs content to gauge alignments.

Also it's probably likely that scum doesn't have sword flavor.

this (referring to Michael Scott) + pretty much everything in is absolutely in line with how I've been feeling, with a few extra points I hadn't even considered
Examples of questions that "don't lead anywhere"? Everything I asked was to gain an answer I could evaluate.

Also ofc I'll call out invalid reasons on invalid reasons. Activity tell - NAI, Robot tone - NAI.

They're not swords. They could be, like, 'Rapiers', but not swords.
I DON'T KNOW, MICHAEL.

Nah, man, I just know for sure the scum have a good chance of not being swords.

I've definitely marginalized voices before as town, especially if they're pushing on me. I remember in ONUW5 (on this site) I got so annoyed with scum!podoboq that I felt my only option was to tell him explicitly to shut up, because he was clogging the thread with misleading sophistry meant to screw over the town

If implosion is town and you've done nothing but pop into the thread every so often to say he's scum, with no real reasoning given, why wouldn't he marginalize that? It's not useful content to him in any way whatsoever, especially if he's already reading you scum for it

Nope, haven't.

But who knows. Varsoon's play reminds me of Excalibur for some reason, I've seen him recently pretty passionate as town
