Flaming Ryker claimed it was a town tell, not a scum tell.Also, RR isn't scum and I don't understand why everyone is so fixated on him being scum.
Zen harping on RR for his Post Restriction that Ryker claims is a scum tell is dumb and a waste of time. I would say that trying to outguess the mod and such is a waste of time, but seeing as RR's restriction has already happened and Asidoh was in the game, there might be some merit to it since the roles, at least RR's, are not randomized.
Zen's flaming gambits are not helping himself. The RvS nature is burning off putting.RR's suspicion of Zen is possible. Zen has been playing weird.
*waits on baited breath*No, vocal is town
WHAAAAAT!?Okay I entirely did not know that today is the deadline. Or is it?
I agree with Freeman's town list sans Panta. He's a study in useless. If he's not scum, then whatever, still a mighty fine vig.Morgan Freeman: I have a town read on The Savage Nymph, Ryker, Inferno, WashedLaundry, Vocal, and Panta.
My God, you're dumb.@Vocal
Zen is...Zen.
I could sum up my thoughts on zen, and just about everytime, with telling you this:
Made me die with laughter about how hypocritical it was.
In an ongoing game, zen replaced in, then, in his first post, asked if he needed to claim. It's as if he didn't even care about his role.
But the bizarre thing is... a hydra log?
Zen's not registered in a hydra, I haven't seen him post as a hydra, that log obviously refers to this game (Mentions silph and inferno, who I don't think in any other games.)
But why should I bother? he's just broken two rules, I think ("no hydra logs and no communicating with outside players"), so he probably has a countdown on his head.
He fluffed himself as an entity in this game then did nothing with it.TSN said:*waits on baited breath*
Also why should we lynch Silph for any reason besides he is just a non-presence?
I laughed.finally
a game with only 351 posts, i will enjoy my quick re-read.
I'd throw Ruy in the toss-up category for scum reads.
ughughughI mad. I REALLY mad. Just finished up a big ol' reads post, and because I don't have myself as staying logged in, it timed me out... So allow me to summarize that -__-. I'm not gonna be fancy with quotes and whatnot, so at least it's not a wall O.o
First off, Unvote Vote Vocal. This guy's been totally fake and pseudo scumhunting all game. I wouldn't be surprised if he's whole "new playstyle" thing is a cover for possible bad play. He's very easy to predict, actually: If a strong or popularly smart player, or a general opinion, goes one way, he'll follow like a puppy. Notice how, once Zen came up with that Gheb case, Vocal hopped on it like it was nothing. And the way he went onto my wagon was seemed totally fake. It's funny, he told me to use MY words. Hey Vocal, why don't YOU use YOUR OWN words instead of just latching on to somebody else's idea and running with it. Basically, this guy's all bark and no bite, and I don't like it. Lynch the scum bag. Another player I don't like is Panta. Although my opinion of him is not so strong, Panta doesn't really scum hunt. It seems like, if he's going to try and poke at somebody, he's gotta make it as sweet as he can. It's past J level AtE. Hell, it's like he's running his post through a preschool teacher to make sure it's nice enough... Just ultimately doing nothing while trying to please everybody. Rings noob scum to me. Gheb and Ryker are two players that I can't seem to get a read off of. If either of them were up to lynch, at this point, I wouldn't mind being on either wagon. Gheb's been getting a free pass from me just cuz of the poetry. But looking, content wise, he's been kind of allusive. So I'm gonna wait till he gives us that reread to really determine what I feel about his alignment, but I don't like the fact that I don't have a read. I feel similarly about Ryker. I'm not getting a town or scum Ryker feel. I'm getting a Ryker feel. Nothing he's been doing all game has really been constructive or pro town, or really the way that I know Ryker. But at the same time, there's nothing that I can call scummy from his play, which is what really makes me weary to call him town. I have no read, simply. And I wouldn't mind lynching him (assuming you guys can get em to L-1). SilphCo, however, has been utterly useless when that playerslot has the ability to be a really strong entity. Total vigbait imo, but if the wagon goes to em I'm totes on board.
Basically, if you're not listed, I either have you as town, or I don't mind you living past toDay. Simple.
how is "daykill: gheb" not ten characters when it's 12.Daykill: Gheb
Probably. My issue with Gheb's play that I've seen thus far is that his push on me is ********. I state a couple of different things fresh out of RVS and he stretches it into a reason to vote me. I saw these posts farther ahead, though I'm missing the context in between then and now, and it's awkward.Ryker are you still voting with me today?
@Bolded - I haven't even been playing this game for the last 7ish pages, but what you're saying is that I've done stuff that others should've picked up on and called me out for, but you specify nothing. Even if you're talking about from before I disappeared from this game, you don't specify anything here.I didn't push Ryker much so far because I didn't get to do it yet. I'm more surprised that Laundry didn't seem to take note of the points I made about Ryker before I left but I feel like by now there should plenty of things that Ryker is guilty of that could've been pointed out without my presence.
Players like Vocal make this game hard to play. I agree with everything Gorf posted in his #506 but I'm still more hesitating to move my vote because I'm more inclined to buy Vocal playing this bad as town than Ryker plays as town. Can't blame Gorf for being suspicious of Vocal though because a townie has definitely no reason to play the game in a fashion that Vocal does.
I like Inferno's reserved play a lot more because he can make valid points without risking a switch of momentum that he couldn't forsee yet. If Vocal is town then he really should take a step back and think more before he posts. I definitely consider him a lynch target at this point.

In this follow-up (it's a double post), I see an unvote after clearly stating that he still thought I was scum. Then he says he won't vote unless the lynch ends up on one of two unlikely options and an eaaaaaaaaasy lynch (Vocal). He ends it by trying to incite Laundry to go chasing me instead of him doing it.Zen, you know as well as a bunch of other people in this thread that I greatly disapprove of the way you make your case on me. Honestly, if it weren't for the extremely inconsistent skill-level of this game's roster I would've directly counter voted you but that might've convinced people that I'm scummy for "OMGUS"ing you or something among those lines.
A good case is not the same as ripping apart every line in my poetry and immediately interpret it in a most negative fashion. A bunch of half-***** accusations to lines taken out of context doesn't accumulate to one strong point that shows how I'm suspicious - that's a fallacy a lot of new players fall for and a huge reason why mainly scum prefer to make such long-winded cases. If you actually have aything concrete to hold against me you could probably say so in one sentence and back it up with multiple quotes. That would also show that you're interested in a constructive solution to the problems you have just in case I'm town. The way you presented your case you already exclude that option to begin with - you're more interested to foment the town against me the an actually resolving the issue. That's fairly suspicious.
Unvote
I will probably not vote anybody at the end of the Day other than Ryker, Zen or Vocal. I'd like to see Laundry's response to my objection and see if he can also see things in Ryker's play that hint at him being scum. I remember him mentioning something earlier about Ryker that caught his attention - I wonder what happened to that?

What had Gheb done at the time of this post to warrant the offer?i have finished a 1/3 of my re-read.
it's safe to say that inferno is leaning more newb town rather then newb scum.
FoS on vocal can leave for now, granted that it's easy to just call something a joke, but you're good for now.
Washed hold my hand
Gheb hold my hand
Ryker, distance between us two and i'll decide if you're worthy
TSN is tentatively null for now, the stuff Gordo is spouting is pretty dumb, but i don't like the approach that TSN is taking it, such as beating the arguement with "gord u dubm."
i do like the other head, i'm getting a rather better read over J, if it were merely sang as the hydra, it'd be easier, but J likes to come in and broil some bull**** now and then but it's always such a chore trying to figure out what kinda bull**** it is, scummy or not.
i feel gord is a dubm, but he's my dubm. <3
Zen..hmm..needs more reading.
He's not on the chopping block at the time of this post. Why are you tunneling?Man flaming hell, Zen pulling his I lied bro, is bull. I'm not playing these flaming games like in SH mafia, burn and die. I flamethrower refuse to put up with it again. Your on the chopping block and you flaming think it is ok to troll town, no you die.
I didn't push Ryker much so far because I didn't get to do it yet. I'm more surprised that Laundry didn't seem to take note of the points I made about Ryker before I left but I feel like by now there should plenty of things that Ryker is guilty of that could've been pointed out without my presence.
The ****? You're going to sit on your hands and expect me to dance like your puppet? How's this:I'd like to see Laundry's response to my objection and see if he can also see things in Ryker's play that hint at him being scum. I remember him mentioning something earlier about Ryker that caught his attention - I wonder what happened to that?

Excuses.Zen, you know as well as a bunch of other people in this thread that I greatly disapprove of the way you make your case on me.

"But I'm not going to pursue him on it."Unvote
"Just slightly give him a shove so you know that I don't like him."I will probably not vote anybody at the end of the Day other than Ryker, Zen or Vocal.
Swiss, give Gord back his account, you smartass.My words?
My WORDS?
My WORDS?
My WORDS?
My WORDS?
My WORDS?
My WORDS?
My WORDS?
You're scummy. Problem?
I was thinking that after his last post.DH is playing much better.
Ugh, I really didn't like this post at all, just fyi. I take full credit for the vote because I've been talking to him Skype about the game for the past hour. We're neighbors, we've got a crumb left out there that you won't find that will explain our characters and there's a couple of places I said something like, "I'm glad I have more to go off than the **** in thread."The ****? You're going to sit on your hands and expect me to dance like your puppet? How's this:
vote: Gheb
I'm dancing.
Excuses.
"Walls are anti-town, guys, Zen's just trying to con you."
"But I'm not going to pursue him on it."
"Just slightly give him a shove so you know that I don't like him."
Why. Would. You. Ever. Sit. On. Your. Hands. In. This. Situation. It does not make sense. Instead of giving us solid stances marked with logical progression, you sit down. Like, that's it. You just sit down, clam up, and deflect to myself and Ryker. Textbook newbscum play.
Actually, that's not a bad thing to do. I'd be more worried if he was doing that. Newer players will look at something one person they believe is scum is doing and then try to apply it to anyone else is doing it and get them lynched, despite the circumstances being different. It's called mechanically scumhunting, and if you catch better players who know that scum tells are not universal (albeit some are widely applicable in most situations), that's a scumtell.My main point against you: You were selectively questioning/pushing/hunting certain players. You pushed/questioned one person (Ryker) for the same/similar tells that you showed no concern for others doing (Me/Gordito).
Why this is scummy: You're not realky hunting this way. You're simply pushing a player on points you can work with. If you find one person suspicious enough to question for certain play, you should find others with similar play suspicious enough to question as well. But instead instead you were giving us a pass and even praised my play. This is why I think you are faking, and you had it preset for who you call scum and who would be your town reads.
