That's a bit of a open way to vote someone. You could leave some inkling as to why you voted streets and then a full explanation latter. It would help us understand.

I feel like Kid A and TvK are trying to compete for votes right now.

weird hydra interaction, post #61 reads like it was written by someone who wanted to sound town and not someone who wanted to explain their point of view

You did post a few posts after #61. Why didn't you say anything about it back then?

sorry the post i didn't like was actually #62, i noted down the wrong post number

and tvk i didnt read much into the post at the time but while rereading i noticed that the whole "if i was scum I would be posting like this guy" thing is exactly the sort of thing an experienced scum player would say, it plants the idea that as scum he always posts cautiously and since he isn't posting cautiously now he must be town. I don't understand why a town player would feel the need to add the whole self-reading angle into the post - i think a town player would just say he didnt like the cautious phrasing and that it was noncommittal and scummy

The Silver Bard replaces Orestes

So I have been reading up on this game since I got the go ahead to replace in about 2-2.5 hours ago. I play mafia by creating lists of what I find scummy and what I find townie while I go through the game. Reading this many pages in 2,5 hours may have cause me to miss somethings, and I generally find the last pages hard to read with as much details as the first (this is also so for this game).
For now I will post the ones I got the most “scumpoints” on and the ones I got the most “townpoints” on.

The runaway winner for most points awarded is Herself, and all of those are scumpoints. So she/he/it is basicly my biggest scumread.
My number two scumread is Squirrel Girl.
Number 3 is TvK.

For town I got ICEninja as my biggest townread, and Street Hassle as my second biggest scumread.

I will leave you with this for now, I will come back later, or tomorrow with a better post with better analysis. I will need to do some ISO’ing then, and try to battle my confirmation bias (don’t bet on me being able to do this, the bias is strong in this one!)

Target [Garmr] unable to spell "though." Sensors indicate target is paranoid, willing to assume future plays from other targets. Target states ICEninja has crazy theories. States he is "paranoid as hell." Target itself is paranoid. Its logic does not compute. It thinks sheeping during RVS is fine. Target [Garmr] scolds other targets over the matter of sheeping. Later admits sheeping is null by itself. He takes issue with Herself "white-knighting" other targets. Target feels like a kid in a candy store; target probably

It's like a long tease wherein eventually we might get to see a read, but during te process get to read really bad fanfiction.

Why'd you vote for Orestes for fluffposting when at that time you barely contributed at all?

———✹
Explain how Orestes is scummy for implying two people were suspicious, then voting someone else.

What's your read on Banksys Flareon's slot?

Elaborate on your reasoning for voting for Street Hassle.

I checked to see if you used this approach to scumhunting in your completed MS newbie game. It looks like you didn't. You replaced into that game, as well, and into a fairly dire LYLO situation.

Is this something new you are trying out? How does it work?

Can we policy lynch Quadraxis?

Considering how little he's posted for having finished his V/LA a fair bit ago, plus how obnoxious his content this, actually makes this a serious request.

Town is being quite dysfunctional at the moment with no real solid wagons, except fitz (which admittingly isn't a bad wagon but not my preferred lynch) and a couple itty-bitty wagons. This silver guys replaces in and throws around some scum reads that have a basically zero chance of getting a lynch through today (though I wouldn't mind looking at lynching Herself tomorrow).

Plus I feel like everyone is going to forget almost instantly how insanely scummy TSO and the situation around his replacement so I doubt I'm even going to get my preferred lynch anyway.

Let's not and say we did. Besides, policy lynches are typically based on feelings and are typically bad for Town.

Here, have some tissue.

So, why exactly should we go after Fitz? What exactly makes his wagon oh-so-solid and worthy of being today's lynch? Not that I have a stake in the matter, but call me curious ICE. What exactly is your angle, ICE? And why go after Herself tomorrow, when you have the capability of going after her today?

Maybe we've simply lost our minds over how insanely Scummy they are. Or maybe they weren't scummy in the slightest. How about instead of banking on hyperbole you amuse us with reasonable facts as to why they're so gosh darn scummy, yes?

Before I have to board my bodacious bot, mind telling us what your updated reads are on everyone else?

in what way are these two statements linked, orestes was posting a lot but not actually saying anything (e.g. in an early post he basically says "tvk that was kind of noncommittal - not that i mind people being noncommital", what a fucking great observation)
———✹

why would anyone with a town win condition identify two possible scum and then not use their vote to help kill these possible scum, i can understand voting the early wagon if you have nothing else to go on but Orestes had two better people to vote and still chose the safe vote that draws no attention to him

he made a weird post and then disappeared i do not know what to make of him

i dont think anyone else is trying hard to get townread, i guess squirrel girl is trying pretty hard to be a funposter but thats probably more to do with character than allignment indicative
ICEninja towntells a lot but i think hes being genuine
