And if I'm wrong about that, explain to me like I'm five why someone mischaracterizing how many times you've voted to call you town is a scum strategy. Walk me through my hypothetical masterplan.

I agree with Ernie's point that what he's being accused of, regardless of whether or not he did it, isn't something that makes me think he's scum.


Ernie's tone throughout this game has come off as someone who's (a) reading through it and (b) unconcerned with dying.

So... was your first comment based on the content of my post you thought was TM? That doesn't even make sense. How can your opinion of something change solely on the knowledge of who is posting vice what they posted? A post is a post regardless right?

Putting it out there - I'm suspicious of Moat based on his signal : noise ratio.

Moat: can you sell us on what makes you think PMom is scum? Right now it feels like you're posting just to have an opinion on the record.

*Turns the dial clockwise about 45 degrees*

It's day one and most of the arguments have been boring/based on semantics. I think of it all pmom would be a good choice and I have a feeling they are scum.

Why are you grandstanding my dear mmt?

Madman, do you draw a distinction between non-posting versus low-content/low-volume of posts in a given day? How do you define lurking exactly?

IMO lurking is most often determined by volume, but it's possible to be a low volume poster without being a lurker by good coherent posts and analysis. It's also possible for a high volume poster to be a lurker by overloading the thread with useless posts and content meant to distract or annoy.

In this game, dongs is lurking through low volume and low content while Keane is kind of being a high volume/low content lurker.

I'll give you a straight answer instead

Chores was a high volume low content (for the most part) poster in shine. I believe he is doing something different this time. He also doesn't really like to post much d1 because he really wants to make it to lylo and d1 is normally a poo poo show. What I'm seeing is fine with me however I would be suss if he continued in this fashion

Ah this post confuses me so much. Until I read it I was sure I was going to vote you, now not so much.

Where I'm at right now is I think somber is town. The way he got angry at TMM not understanding him felt like it was coming from a position of wanting to be relevant and understood rather than from a scum pov which would want to spin it into an advantage.

You missing that and instead commenting on the tone of it made me feel like you're scum easily hopping on a case that's easy to make.

Now I just don't know what to do. Part of me thinks you'd make this exact post as scum but part of me thinks if you were you'd append 'im not 100% on ernie but I feel good because:' to make sure id still be a viable cuddle on future days.

this is pretty funny because I think dick is one of the people doing high-volume/low-content posts. a lot of his posting is either asking questions to other people

I agree that Ernie. seems slightly erratic. Most likely my vote, but will withhold for now.

Chores, what about Keane's posting is worthy of a vote? I'm not saying I don't think he's worthy of a vote btw, I'm legit curious to see a case.

He really only has one decent content post which is this one:

Dick Bastardly posted:

Did a re-read and to be honest I can't say I see anything that jumps out at me as "oh yeah, 100% scum slam dunk" material. I've cooled on Ernie, I appreciate the list he put up and after reading it again I've decided to ##unvote

I don't really like Pmom's play so far, his voting feels very opportunistic to me. The only content with any real weight seems to revolve around an argument about a correlation of scumminess to lurkiness, which isn't a great argument imo but especially D1 when it isn't even apparent that lurkiness is habitual or damaging to town in any case thus far.

Fisk's insistence on votes for Ernie being bad kind of feel like a scumbro attempting to take the pressure off of another scumbro, because at that time in the game, I don't think those votes were that bad based on the information we had to go on. I'd really like to see more participation by Fisk (by participation, I mean actual reads/cases).

I'd also like to call out Moat for some sore substantial contributions to the hunt.

Touche. It's not for lack of trying though. I just don't have any "aha!" reads. To be honest, I feel like if I post stuff that I'm not 100 about I'll get challenged and ultimately fall flat on my face about it. I actually have to try to put myself in a non-self-conscious state of mind in order to put myself out there like that, it doesn't come easy for me. But I will try drat it.

If you really want to know how I feel right now, other than what I've already said, I will add that I'm not liking Keane or Chores for their mystery posting although I do have a non-scum type theory for Keane's behavior and would like to see how night mafia shakes out. Same with chores, except my read here is really more middle of the road not leaning scum or town. I really feel like without results, their play will fall apart.

I seem to remember having a meta on you where you tunneled hard as scum D1 whereas this game you sound more like someone who isn't sure of their reads. To me, it reads like town.

I talked about your tone, rather than your case, because I was asked specifically what my read was on you and that was my thought process. :)

Feeling a bit better now, or well my fever is down at least. I'm sticking with my vote for now, TM's response and nothing else since have swayed me.

I seriously doubt dick is scum. He's asking questions that I also would want to know and it feels pretty genuine. I would be leaning pmom if we were considering high volume/low content posters but that's not necessary right now imo

Chores is really weirding me out this game, and I have no idea if that's a good or bad thing
