unvote, vote silavor
. my sense is he's just hoping to hang around long enough that people get bored and look elsewhere. It works a lot on D1 actually. Since the wagon formed he seems more reserved, which is the opposite of what a townplayer should do in that situation. When wagon arrives, you should say more, not less.

What does this even mean? I get that you're referring to mini 1156 but after that you lost me.

I had a quick look through his ISO there, and surprise, surprise, he actually hunts scum and he actually plays like a townie there. Is there something in particular in that game that makes you think he's town here?

Ellibereth's vote on DK is seriously opportunistic. Nothing scummy in his post, it's just nooby. Reading his continuing posts, there's so much lack of understanding... play more newbies?

Did you just tell
Elli Fucking Bereth
to play more newbie games? What is this I don't even

Anyway. Seriousmode Sillyvore has been activated.

Ok, explanation time. Elvis called me town at the start of the game. This is important, so pay attention. Then I start purposely stupidposting, and Elvis questions me on it right away. Note that she doesn't call me scum, she simply says "I had a town-read on you, now you're tarnishing it. What's going on?" What's more, when I purposely ignore her and continue stupidposting, she continues to question me without immediately screaming "LOLSCUM" at me. She also continues to scumhunt, interrogating other people besides just me during all of this. Finally, after putting up with all of my crap, she concedes and calls me scum, posting a legitimate case full of logic that shows she's actually thought about this from different angles before coming to the conclusion that I was scum. Even then, she doesn't dwell solely on me, and continues scumhunting in other directions. As I continue to ignore her and purposely stupidpost, she continues to cement her reads, and to try to comprehend the motivation behind my actions.

Why do I bring all this up? Because this is town. This is what town looks like. This is how town thinks.

Pacman, however, makes his reads up as he goes along. His first serious vote is based on trying to
outguess the mod
. The rest of that post is just pure fail. He finds me scummy because... I didn't vote one of my town reads when they stupidposted? Yeah. Because
that
makes sense. Then FA points out that there probably aren't humans in this game, and suddenly I'm scumspect number one? I still don't see how Pacman only sees Seacore as scum if the scum are humans, and how if the scum are animals, suddenly Seacore has to be town and I have to be scum. Which brings me back to my original point; pacman's making this stuff up as he goes. Moreover, this is not a town response. This is a scum band-aid response to WIFOM out of a potential confrontation. Then he vanishes for three days, makes a fluffy catchup post, and continues saying I should be lynched, without really giving any evidence for any of his scum reads. Bonus points for saying Ze is "jokingly being scummy. Probtown" then saying "It's possible that Zelink is that scummy because he's scum. But that would be REALLY bad scum..." Based on how he came up with his other scum reads in his catch up post, there is
no reason
for pacman to try and wifom-defend Ze's scummyness.

So in conclusion, pacman has basically tunneled on me all game, vanished, then made a catchup post where he still tunnels on me while throwing out throwaway "scum" reads, and defending Ze's scumminess with WIFOM.

Policy lynch sheep sheep sheep Let's defend (known town) FA Snarkyscum (but still no case, so sheep) subtle misrepping

Ze finally starts making sense with his full case on Amrun, but then says earworm's nullscum, DK is easily readable despite wanting him policy lynched earlier, and that Pacman's town all without any explanation. Then he retcons me into being scummy all game, despite asking Elvis to ISO me first, so that Ze can be sure he's following the town opinion on what's scummy. But wait, there's more! Now suddenly I'm active lurking, and not really drawing attention to myself, despite me posting my thoughts on everything that had happened. Also worth noting is that at that point Ze still hadn't changed his vote off of snarky from near the beginning of the game, despite never
actually
providing evidence for why snarky's scum in the first place. This doesn't sit right with me. Ze's insecure with shifting his vote around outside of RVS, and despite making an actual case against Amrun, he never actually votes her. Not seeing the town motivation for that. Ze still won't explain why Snarky's scum, although he finally provides a case and a vote against me. It's not much of a case, though. He basically says I'm scum because he thinks all my posts are fluffy, even though they're not. Somehow that's worth a vote, but Amrun's actions from earlier weren't? What's going on here?
This here really takes the cake. Ze's talking to Elvis about policy lynches, but it still proves that Ze's only looking for public approval, not scum. What is this I don't even. When did Amrun become probtown? How do her recent posts nullify everything you had against her earlier? It really looks like Ze's doing the same thing as Pacman, and adjusting his reads to go with the flow of the town. Moreover, after he votes me, he spends the next few posts of his simply defending his town reads. He tunnels completely on to me (JUST LIKE PACMAN), and refuses to talk about anyone else being scummy. He comes close to saying InHim, Snarky and earworm are scum here, but he doesn't actually name names, because he wants everyone to focus entirely on me. Me, me me. The show's all about me. This is
EXACTLY
what I was talking about when I told Fate why his Snarky wagon was flagging. Scum just can't resist me; I taste too good. Anyway, Ze, regarding this I haven't tried to defend myself in the slightest, yet earworm has the
audacity
to to try and corrupt my image into that of flailing scum " trying so hard not to get lynched."

Speaking of Earworm, he's actually rather town. FA's case on him was completely lulzy, and there's a lot of town thought going in to Earworm's posts.

As for snarky, I'm not entirely sure on him just yet. He starts off rolefishing, but then instantly believes
both
of Elli's fakeclaims, even though the second one was saturated with sarcasm and was obviously a joke. Aside from that, though, he's been townposting, and there's a logical thought process to what he does. I'd say he's weak town at this point.

Not liking Lowell. Four posts, each one of them hopping on to a popular bandwagon. He votes earworm twice in a row, while saying it's only temporary until his bandwagon of choice becomes popular. How is that even
remotely
town? Then of course he sheeps on to my wagon with theorycrafting and what looks like
coaching
of all things.

Llamarble seems... disjointed. He started off the game saying Cirno and Snarky were scum, vanished for a few days because of other games with closer deadlines taking precedence, came back yesterday to say Snarky and I were scum based on ISO, then today says Snarky, Earworm and I are town, with Tajo being scum. I'm not getting it, but marble might not have his head in the game yet. Or maybe grey's right, and he's scum. I d'know. Null for now.

Amrun sets up a few false dichotomies throughout the game, but aside from that does anyone have any reason to truly suspect she's scum? A lot of her posts show a town thought process similar to Elvis, and she pursues other avenues of investigation other than just the person she's voting for.

Grey, your scum team is pacman, Ze, possibly evil Llama, and probably Tajo, although Tajoscum is based mostly on gut and the fact that he leaped onto my bandwagon without any real reasoning, then keeps pushing for my lynch without saying why. There's probably more than just that, but no one else is really sticking out to me yet, and I can't properly keep track of this many players like I do in minis and newbies. Still, it's a good place to start.

DK is easily readable. He was my RVS vote and I gave him being a good policy lynch as the reason for this. I've also explained already how DK being easily readable doesn't make him any less harmful to keep around.

If you wanted explanations for my reads, you could have asked (hint: others have, and I've answered them).

Your argument about me caring about town opinion makes no sense, considering I was voting you well before anyone but pacman did. But yeah, I did want to make sure that people would be OK with it because durrrrrrrrrrrrr I personally can't vote 13 times.

You have been active lurking. Saying you were stupid-posting doesn't make this any less true. You weren't posting your thoughts on everything, and you've blatantly avoided answering almost all questions posed to you. A prime example of this is you claiming you had shown suspicion of Snarky at an earlier stage of the game when you really hadn't. There's no scum hunting in your posts prior to #557. It
is
active lurking.

You're right that I had my vote on Snarky for a while. What of it? Are you asking me to explain it, or are you just saying it's scummy because you said so?

I made a case against Amrun, but she was never more suspicious to me than Snarky was. The only reason I made a case against Amrun is because someone asked me to explain why I said what I said (hint: yes, this does indeed work. I will answer you if you ask me to explain something). She later became a town read based on her responses and other posts by her (and based on experience with her in other games, I'm reading her as Amrun-town, which I've already explained). I'm not seeing how this was adjusted to go with the flow when very few people were calling her town.

And yes, I am focusing on you. I thought that was pretty obvious that I want you dead. You're still scum after that post. You're just scum that's trying slightly harder to avoid being the D1 lynch.

I don't like Zel1nk at the moment, because I think there's a fine explanation for the policy lynch:

DK is the kind of player that will vote instantly at LyLo/MyLo without regard to what's going on in the game.

I'll give you an example.

O307, the game went to LyLo and scum self-hammered after slipping up horribly. What does DK do? He comes into the thread (here), votes for someone that is already dead (flipped town), then says "Whoops" and votes for the only other townie alive at LyLo. The game was already over, thankfully, but this is an example of why you really don't want DK around,
even if you're sure he's town
(and they were pretty sure he was town on D1 - it didn't stop him from being deadweight, though).


That says to me that the policy lynch is literally policy - he doesn't want DK alive, even if he KNOWS DK is town, because having him alive as town is just as dangerous as having a living scum player.

It's still fair to say this and then be surprised when a player has a TOTALLY DIFFERENT read on someone who you think is very readable.

However, we're having one read that's completely identical. Wanna get this show started?

Nah, not today. But you and Tajo get to play the Silavor wagon challenge:


silavor () - evilpacman18, ZeL1nK, Seacore, elvis_knits, Amrun, populartajo, Llamarble, inHimshallibe, Snarky, earworm

You have to tell me that you have town reads on half this wagon, name which players, and then give me reasons why. 'cause this wagon is radioactive.


Butbutbut, I don't wanna play that game... :(

I guess I will play though if only for the sake of rethinking my reads and seeing if you might have a point.

However, even if you think there's a lot of scum on a wagon doesn't mean it's a bad wagon. If scum is caught, his buddies buss. So, I think you have to tell me
Why you think Silavor is town
before we decide that it's a bad wagon.

Thoughts on Silavor's wagon:

evilpacman

I think this most likely disprove's Pacman's theory.

Bah.

unvote

vote: silavor


So. I've been thinking about this. Predator-prey doesn't mean that humans are not scum, does it? I mean, I think the thinking here from FA, and then evilpacman was that predator means animal and not human. But I think human can be predators too, technically. ANYWAY, whether it is right or wrong, we see pacman throw out an idea about scum roles and then get convinced that he's wrong. pacman is likely town, unless you think this was a tricksy faked townslip. There's always that chance, but it's low, IMO.

Sidenote: FA was quick to "disprove" evilpacman's human scum role theory, even though llama's predator-prey statement doesn't actually rule out humans in my mind. Because FA has a scum role and he is not human? I think if we kill a scum and see what the role is (human or animal), it may be enlightening.

zelink

null/lean town on him. I had early suspicion on him for policy lynch stuff, which I think can be exploited by scum. However he has earned town points recently from me for several of his reads. He said pacman was town, sees silavor as scum, there are others. I'm not sure I agree with him entirely about his reads, but I think he's generally not too bad and he seems to be actively scumhunting.

Seacore

null/slight town
Hasn't posted nearly enough for me to think he's actually being helpful. However, his two votes have been on snarky and silavor, which are both good votes, IMO.

elvis-knits

hell yeah town

Amrun

lean town. Bouncing around a bit, pissing people off as usual (I say this with love).

tajo

lean town. Hasn't done anything scummy, pressuring scummy people.

llamarble

null-scum. Does nothing, full of excuses, hops on largest wagons without much reason.

inhim

null. not very active, which is a bit worrisome. I have to iso him again, but feel it would be inconclusive.

snarky

scummy. rolefisher.

earworm

lean scummy at this point for 1)helpfully pointing out the 5-scum thing with silavor, then saying he never agreed with it = helping make mountain out of molehill; 2) saving his own bacon by voting silavor now.

TLDR: Silavor is still scum. Early wagon is town. Late wagon has some scum on it who are bussing silavor.
