No, I'm waiting on the case that Riddleton's promised for probably a dozen pages by now.
It's getting ridiculous. Right now I'm taking his reasons for voting us as "They random voted and unvoted weirdly".
I do still wanna see the 2nd half of your reads list. My read on you is awaiting that.

If you want to word it that way, then sure, but that's not how I see it.

'Weirdly' is fairly all-encompassing.
If you want to not say how
you
see it, keep coasting.

Yeah, that's a damn good point. He was part of the Hypno Twins wagon, and that wagon was a lot about that hydra being awful and that terrible "one head does not agree with how the other is playing" shit (the line "it's in scum's best interests to defend town" made my head hit the desk. Yes, scum are usually in the business of defending town and lynching scum, it's good policy). It was NOT a good wagon.

Medea the Alien, Egg, LynchMePls, Riddleton
Actually I do not fucking understand this wagon at all.
Well, I mean, for camouflage purposes, it might work out. Say there are two town wagons; wouldn't it look less scummy to defend one of those wagons in case town was flipped? (Note: I am NOT saying that I have townreads from AA9 or LMP, who I guess have the next highest numbers of votes after us.) Okay, I'll admit that it might not be totally logical. And the way I explained it was laughably bad. I think that I was kinda weirded out by people defending us, though. I guess defending makes total sense for scumhunting, but it's just a little offputting to have someone say "WHAT HYPO'S NOT SCUM!!!!" when I've still only made a couple of posts. Who would know that other than mafia? I guess this would have been applied better early in the game, as opposed to then, but that was my mindset.
that you think GreyICE is scum, so why abandon your vote? Also, how is voting for you a policy lynch (with reasoning other than you going after the IC)?
VOTE: ArcAngel9
p-edit: four new posts? What is this? Also, pretty sure Dino's talking to Riddleton, Istott.
p-edit2: dammit I take too long to write these. two new posts.

This is hard. Im trying to read the other players, but i'm getting nowhere. I dont know why. Can someone ask me directed questions instead? I cant write any reads without it being inane dribble.

While I'm not overwhelmed with the content in this town in a number of ways, this is kind of surprising.
If we're asking questions, and you're getting nowhere, which players are the least explicable to you? Why do they confuse you? Do you think it's scum confusion, or just inexplicable behavior (and if it's the latter, what do you wish to ask them?)

I have no idea whether Medea and lmp are mafia or town. I just can't glean any sort of read on their alignment.
I'm going to do what you suggested a few posts back.

istott's transparent admission of struggle here looks pretty town to us.

That's good. I don't know how to reply to that. I'm very willing to take questions.

Can you expand on this? What same feelings?

I want to preface this by saying that I hope that my lawyer-ness doesn't piss off everyone too much, but I'm pretty confused with how AA9's handling this, and I want this line of questioning to be answered. So along with my policy lynch question in 428 (which I will call Question #1), here are four more questions:
2. In 364, you say that GreyICE's interactions with Riddleton implicate that he is scum, presumably because he is acting abusively towards a player you perceive to be town. Is this interpretation correct, or can you elaborate more?
3. In 393, you say that GreyICE's last three posts (for reference, 377, 382, and 388, all referring to Istott's 372) make him appear less scummy. I have my own reasons for why I believe GreyICE isn't scum, but from your perspective, how
exactly
do these posts make him seem town?
4. You seemed very quick to vote Boonskiies in 287 and GreyICE in 368; it seems like you aren't especially cautious or sitfencey in your votes. That said, what is the harm in keeping a vote on a player you think is scummy and has no current wagon?
detail? In particular, I'm interested to see how this is not a blatant OMGUS vote, as you say it isn't in 373.
Other than that, I'm not sure how LMP is scummy, Dino. At some point I'd like to see someone's reasoning for that, but obviously AA9 is a more pressing issue. But so far I'm reading town pretty strongly on Riddleton, GreyICE, and Istott (though that one's mostly a gutread).

AP here. I'm all caught up. Ffery and I are (slowly) coming up with a reads list. I think antihero is my top pick for scum right now. Ffery sounded like she agreed that he's being less than town.

Nope, not comfortable with being sheeped. If you can't do anything other than vote someone based on our logic, give us some townreads. Give reasons. Show us your 2nd scumspect. Give us SOMETHING.

It's because I'm falling behind. I have been only active on my phone, and it's hard to keep up on all of my games that way. I have only been periodically skimming since like page 8. It's not intentional lurking, as Arc had said. Also, as scum, I tend to be super active anyways, so I don't see how it's a scum tell.
...so what was i saying about the aa9 wagon being a loser
oh
yeah
it's a loser

I got prodded so I had to do something, haha. I'll probably change it if I get an actual scum read. (i suck day 1 with reads, and i haven't really been reading this game.)
