I'm sure you wouldn't, but the point is the fact you didn't vote for me was telling.

I'd be more than happy to be lynched, I'm not particularly excited by this game, but you'd be lynching town so you'll just have to trust that I'll become more useful as the game goes on.

Trust has to be earned. Your current play doesn't give me any belief that you will be useful later.

What do you think it was telling of? (This is like pulling teeth.)

well I thought it was pretty obvious from the post where I quoted the reactions...but scum would use my 'I exist' post as an excuse to vote for me. If you were town, you'd be exasperated by it, yes, but you would think 'probably town'.

what scum motivation is there to post 'I exist' ?

Well if you honestly are town you suck at reaction testing and guaging reactions from the test.

Cause my reaction is a genuine town reaction yet you called me scum.

You need death, and you need it today.

No it implies I have no idea what your alignment is. But nice try

but you seem to be passing comment on my performance. surely this would only be relevant if I was town? how could I be useful later if I was scum?

That's using the assumption you are telling the truth.

I did answer your question if you used your brain.

I was making that statement under the assumption you were telling the truth.


The 2nd part of your question really didn't need answering cause it's a redundant question IMO. But if you insist.

If you are scum of course you won't be useful.

Since I don't know your alignment and I don't see you as being town , I'm fine with your lynch. If you flip town , I'll still be fine with your lynch cause you aren't playing towards the town win condition of trying to find scum.

insults usually come from scum as well. you are ticking all the boxes here.

so, you would be happy with a town lynch? and one more box.

you obviously don't know me because I insult as both alignments and I am happy policy lynching useless players as town.

If you are town you are an acceptable lynch day 1, but nothing suggests you are town so I think you are scum

And yes I'm a huge advocate of policy lynches. I've never hid that fact and even said so in the MD topic that talks about policy lynching.

You are being lynched cause you aren't scum hunting and are not being useful. If you are town it's a policy lynch similar to the thing I mentioned earlier that I learned from DDD who was the town IC in a game where I was scum. He said policy lynching under contributing SEs is also a reliable way to lynch scum.
