did you cover reasoning for this between pg 4-7? i'm on pg 4. if not, could you expand a bit? i didn't come to that connection.
I didn't.
Zakk coming out swinging as scum would only be to cover or hide something, it's more likely town. Swinging during RVS is high risk high reward strategy. Most of the time, it doesn't happen. Then Zakk's interaction with Copper and unvoting Ircher admits his push is RVS. If Zakk was RVSing hard to appear townie, he probably doesn't unvote Ircher but pretends to have something serious. The calculus changes a bit if Copper is scum. Then he wants to back off Ircher, let town demolish him, and hope Copper is forgotten about entirely.
ok, so.. i guess my trouble in understanding what you're saying here is that i didn't get the impression that zakk was doing... anything.. really. but after the first sentence you kinda lost me.
actually i dont understand at all. are these hypotheticals of his possible future behavior? or an analysis of what actually happened? what i saw was zakk sheeped shotty - null - then saw a bunch of pages posted and unvoted - also null - and hasn't really been involved since. what makes you think he's only scum if copper is? like, is it a kind of "if copper flips scum, look at zakk more closely" or "if copper flips scum, THEN zakk is definitely scum" (if this, why) or is it more "zakk is a solid town read UNLESS copper flips scum", and.. what is your read on copper?
p-edit i'm actually kind of town reading magnus but i'm wary because i get the feeling he's incredibly skilled at being scum.
Analysis of what happened. If you don't think Zakk was doing anything, we interpret things differently. I think every post, every word, everything has meaning. I don't see Zakk sheeping. He's pushing too hard to be a sheep. The last is the answer. I've been told I shoot down ideas though. I was never reaching Zakk scum based on his opening without Copper scum but I've been told that I am very dickish in approaching things that way. So I tried saying it another way.
My read on copper is hardcore scum. It hasn't changed. He hasn't done much to engage the thread. He's trolling around pretending we're in RVS to have his vote on a townread. His trajectory is shit.

but on a srious note, titus, he's right about the copper thing - i was under the impression that he was attacking copper, not defending him?

He's got "copper" as a scumread, but doesn't really attack him. His interactions are all "I'm telling you Ircher's dead" and not pressing on his opinions. Copper's a scumread, but every post seems designed to have Copper look good.
When I cased Copper, Shotty acted like it didn't exist.
Defenses don't have to be direct.
"the case presented by or on behalf of the party being accused"
"the action of defending from or resisting attack."
Nice back pedal, wait no it's not.
Huh?

magna is scum.
Something about his ISO bothers me. He wrote a lot to just agree with two short posts voting for TBG. He's written a lot about a LOT, but somehow not much. Could be this is just the way he is, but he's looking a little "coachy" to me.
Also townvibes from ETL, lessening townvibes from titus.
He is a very thorough usually.
okay, well, whatever, I'm damned sure not reading back games of someone that verbose. As I said.... consider, and come make this happen when we're done LOLhammering newbs*.
* in related news, I also plan to LOLhammer newbs.**
** but not seth. despite the sk claim (?) that guy is newbtown.

Something that pinged me on magna:
26 - to zakk: "Of course it isn’t real.
Have you ever played with Shotty before?
"
44 - "@zakk – Hey answer my question …"
232 - "@zakk – Answer my question from 26 in your next post or I’m voting you and channeling Kuribo to get your lynch pushed through today."
The question seems clearly rhetorical to me. If I were zakk I likely wouldn't have addressed it either. 232 is way overblown.

Yeah, you seriously are playing dense. You can indirectly defend people.
And now that Ircher won't take off and you can't scumread ETL (that's why you have her as bad but not scum), you jump onto me for a stretch tastic reason.
And you still won't give reads and are playing semantics with reads and guesses.

I disagree that his posted scumread not resulting in immediate action at this point in time is indicative of association. I agree with the logic, just not the circumstances. I wouldn't go so far as to call it a defense though, since it wasn't really active. Your conclusion here seems to be that because he wasn't actively attacking him, he was defending him, but I don't think that's a good conclusion to come to. Like, I get your logic on this - applying the same principle as lying by omission, defense by lack of offense, but you can't apply that here. It's not like people only have one scumread at a time.
I don't actually have reads on either ircher or copper. I am bad at reading newbies.
p-edit: buncha posts.

Sigh, I attacked copper, you can twist that how ever you want, but you are lying and awful.
Ircher was taking off, in fact, if anything I may have just killed its momentum. I switch my vote because you, someone I already said I thought was scum, is acting like scum.
Also why do you want me to scum read ETL so bad? Did you have some master plan to mislynch me that requires me to OMGUS him?

Titus - i feel like shotty really wants to attack me but knows it will look terrible if he goes too hard. I don't know if that's scum trying not to rock the boat or town being realistic though. I've done that myself as both.
