I find this post convincing but my gut just says merk is town. I don't know his meta as well as you guys I guess but I don't think he flips scum after casing so many people. I don't think merk would have been nearly as talkative if he was phoneposting as scum.

Merk once told me that he pretends to phonepost as scum sometimes. Granted this was a few years ago...

Anyone who thinks Hiipfire's big list of reads is good is wrong. He's got a claimed confirmed mason in his scummiest spot. A dead guy in his "didn't notice him" category. Not sure how that happens if he has "caught up" to the thread, unless he was skimming to the point that he missed claims and lynches and poo poo, in which case his gut opinions are worthless.

ahh that explains why my count was 18 players but I still missed PMom

also hey cut me a break I was catching up in my school's computer lab where like 20 12-year olds were loudly playing some lovely free to play FPS

I think merk is Scum and a good lynch for today. His recent posts seem to amount to a last-ditch bid for a sympathy reprieve and I think a Townmerk would be more engaged and tenacious.

This is a bad post that is massively hedgey. He's setting himself up to avoid voting merk while still being able to say 'yeah, I agreed with that lynch' after merk flips. Why do you think scum wouldn't case many people?

Pinterest Mom posted:

I think SirSam is a pretty good dunk choice, too. The only really case he's made is on me, on day one, ten minutes before deadline, and it's not great.

He votes gamer really quickly, and then comments a bit on me today but never actually votes me, while calling lj's case on me bad. He looks like someone pretty self-conscious about placing his vote.

He also has the weird pressuring of Exakt about the poison, which, w/e.

Really quickly? We were literally past the deadline.

Kashuno posted:

Still rereading but I would vote Vimes to get the pearl somewhere else.

I can still drop it if you want it off me badly enough that you'll vote me for it.

merk posted:

Yeah, I'm going to get lynched. I don't have the time or even a computer to stop it. Good job, scum - two games in a row where my unavailability gets me lynched (saved my CPig in the last one). Lynch Diqnol and PMom when I flip town.

I'm vanilla. Same last name as the dude I quote in pre-game but different first name. Don't remember what.

Uggghhh posts like this are the worst. I still think you're town but seriously, defeated posts like this are anti-town as hell.

Pinterest Mom posted:

ljt, on merk

calls him town


calls him....... probably town?


this stinky turd of a post, where she throws suspicion on him based on Meinberg flipping scum


~spooky dream ghosts~



and now she wants to kill him



Her case on me is crap. Her case on Meinberg is crap. Her case on merk is crap. Come on.

This... is actually pretty good. Pmom, you're actually engaging in the game which you didn't really do day 1.

And in regards to your question rarity, I don't think he would be going on different cases as much. My meta read on scum merk is that he tunnels on particular people with more convincing cases. The fact that he is being attentive and looking at many different people is a point for him, in my opinion.

I think him casing a lot of people weakly makes him look scummy, yes. It comes off more as he's looking for a home for his vote than any real suspicion. When town merk is suspicious he's vocal and pushy.

Also, I would honestly rather not drop the the pearl. It'd be pretty bad for scum to get their hands on it, and while dropping it would allow it to go to another town there's a very real chance that a scum player would snatch it up. For the time being, I feel like it's safest with me.

Okay time for my shift, see you all in fourteen hours!
