just checked, I flip-flopped a lot, but after the initial suspicion early on, I was fairly confident you were town
it's day 5 now, whereas I figured out you were town day 1 in that game (or maybe day 2?).
my confidence in my ability to read you as town remains.

What does make me uneasy is that I was questioning all this Day Four, albeit thinking that Rena was opportunistic scum. Yet no one jumped on it, even though last night's kill demonstrates that at least one scum team wanted her dead in the end. It seems like scum could be trying to get us to lynch ThAd for them, like they seem to have tried with Rena.
This, coupled with the fact that ThaD just voted for PV, simply because I asked him to:

So wait.
Not only did they block ThAd every night, they somehow managed to
a) know he was a vig before he claimed it (didn't he claim like Day 3 or something? I could be wrong on this)
b) roleblock Rena at the same time for, at the very least, Night 3
Which ones?
The only ones you could argue I'm fencing on are PV and Baezu really.
And no, Bulb is definitely 100% scum.
PV and Baezu are defintely fency, and even those you are scum-reading you aren't really given them the " HD Bull-dogged" type of push except for maybe Bulb, who is definitely town.
But what happened to all that stuff today, with Rena actually dead and flipped town? Where's the follow-through on his statements?
All of the quotes from Nacho in that post are from this day phase. Saying that Nacho is not suspicious of ThAd after the Rena flip is a lie.

Firstly (regarding your quote above this that I forgot to address), it's funny because that's not what you asked me at all. You asked me what I thought about ThAd and how it related to your alignment, not what my "thought processes" are. I mean don't get me wrong, you put the words "thought process" in there...but it isn't what you were asking. Not at fucking all.
In post 5245, Bulbazak wrote:So you're saying that you think ThAd is lying about being the vig (i.e. scum) and is therefore lying about who he targetted, yet that tells you absolutely NOTHING about his target? I understand we're in multiball and everything, but you should still be able to come to some conclusion via PoE.
Yes, that tells me actually nothing about the target. I'm not sure why you're so set on the fact that it does.
Because I'm trying to understand your thought process. I would think there would be some line of reasoning that would allow you to reach one conclusion or the other, but you're claiming that your line of reasoning would lead to no conclusion whatsoever. Essentially, you threw something out there that would lead to, you claim, no reasonable set of conclusions. This bothers me, because you are one of the few in the game that I'm still trying to figure out what your motivation is. You were very active on d1 and were at least able to voice your reasoning for your thoughts. You dropped a little on d2, but still, you were making well crafted arguments. However, you've seemed to be coasting since then. I'm just trying to make sense of all of this, hence why I'm asking about your line of reasoning.

Whether you think I'm town or scum, you should have some line of thought that led you to that conclusion in conjunction with ThAd's actions, who you are claiming is scum. I'm just curious about your thought process, because you have been hiding in the background since d2.

How am I lying? Asking for your reasoning is not lying, just like disagreeing with you is not misrepping.
line of reasoning when I never said that was my line of reasoning for calling you scum, ever. Wassup?
I was beginning to think you were sheeping, especially since you buckle and can't defend your position when questioned on it. This is most apparent when you backed up Nero earlier in the day. When questioned on your position, you had no idea what you were standing for. Again, you've been coasting since d2 and hoping nobody noticed.

No.
There's a difference between "Do you believe ThAd's claimed kill choice affects my alignment?" or "C'mon, you
must
think ThAd's kill choice affects my alignment
somehow
!"
Side note: I have no idea what you were trying to get at in the bottom part, so I left it alone. The important part is you refusing to get into your motivation and thought process.
Say that I haven't been asking about your thought process and motivation. I dare you.

You'll have to show me these counter arguments I don't appear to be answering, cause I don't really see them.
Hint: Repeating the same, addressed point over and over and saying it slightly differently is NOT a new counter-argument.
I never said counter argument as in 1 word but as 2 words. I'm saying that you haven't been countering ANY of my arguments. You've simply shouted "misrep" or "liar" or "scum" and hoped that people would follow you on it so that you wouldn't have to actually address anything I say.

In voided you were obv-town and I was fighting against your lynch like crazy. Did you forget this already?
From a quick scan of your ISO in this game, it's true that you called me town and wanted another lynch, but it was more defensive as if staving off an attack on yourself. I can't recall you being super gung-ho on stopping my lynch in that game. In fact, I mainly remember being betrayed by those who read me as town (I'm looking at you Nacho.), as well as my standoff with DGB. You defending me doesn't readily come to mind.

You seriously thought I was scum pretty much all of d2, after I went completely paranoid on you. That scum read seemed to have dropped by d3 when you claimed cop, and the switch seemed out of the blue for me.
Either way, I think both instances show that I definitely wasn't obv. town.

This convinced you? Of what? It didn't convince me of anything except that the situation is murky. And nicely dodges the question of why you voted for PV in the first place.
I don't care how towny Bacde looked for being suspicious of blue scum. Baezu is worth voting.

Pikman Part 2.
Will come back later after others have said something.
<<< Nachomamma8 has been prodded. That's his second strike, so if he is prodded again, he will be replaced. I also sent five pokes. Combined with the prod, that's half the total players falling
dangerously
close to below activity. I realize activity drops over the weekend, but it shouldn't drop by THAT much. >>>
