Tom Tucker posted:You're missing the point. I don't care about other games - how are we supposed to find scum if we can't vote for someone in this game for being scummy? i hear you, i hear you. it annoys me too when i dont know someone but everyone else keeps clearing them for meta reasons. but the thing is, that doesnt destroy the game either. scummy things are still scummy. but those scummy things don't include anything related to the tone of posting, which is what i've gotten votes for. you're acting like there is no possible way to find scum besides "posts scummy" and thats just not true. someone can post like the most perfect townie ever and still be scum, and we can find them by using all the other tools at our disposal.

I think Jeabus' list of drive-by reads and the main reason for a "scum ping" on merk being that he hasn't really done anything doesn't sit well with me, I think if someone were sincerely interested in finding scum they'd be more interested in explaining those reads without being asked and that scum reads would be more likely to flow from posting and not simply a lurking/low activity read this early in the game. ##vote Jeabus

"It's a long and dreary list of scum tells wrapped in a performative air of cavalier confidence and dismissiveness with hard detours into serious conversation whenever people point out how scummy he is." this is actually a great description of my playstyle though

CapnAndy posted:Can we agree that there is maybe a middle ground between long-winded essays and no content whatsoever? yes, but I'm saying this is boogie's usual posting style and I don't think I've seen a boogie scum game so without anything that makes me think "hmm this doesn't seem normal" I'd rather pursue targets that make me more suspicious. Like Spoonsy/PQ/Steak/Jeabus And if we limited it only to no-content posters I'd probably go for PQ or Sal over Boogie.

guys, spoonsy has been stagnating as vote leader literally ALL DAY, and the day has essentially been defined by limp attempts to change targets that dont pick up momentum. if spoonsy was town, we'd be seeing WAY more growth on his votes, not just plateauing like this. unless of course the entire scumteam piled onto one townie in the first 5 votes? basically what im saying is, spoonsy is so scum. i'm also looking suspiciously at who bumped momentum forward on me too, seeing as i'm now the only reasonable alternative to spoonsy

I guess I'll switch to ##vote Maigius at this point because there's zero traction for Sci. I'd vote for Steak to avoid a no-lunch despite the fact that he's null for me at this point because he can be such a distraction. Spoonsy seems more lazy than scummy to me and Sci's voting him so I think I'd rather pass on that one. PQ's close to outright lurking so I'd vote him too although I suppose we could also just see if he ends up getting himself modkilled so we don't waste a lunch. Dmboogie's almost as bad. Won't vote CapnAndy, as he seems alright and like I said before, I don't think he and Sci can both be scum (I know, don't connect unflipped players, blah blah... I'm doing it anyway.) Is there a case on Humalong besides the fact that he assumed there were two scum teams? Cause that doesn't seem very damning to me in a 26-player game. I'll be around for deadline.

Like from a bad guy who knows there are two teams and wants to alert the town to it without actually outing themselves as one of the scum.

They want to look organic, natural, like they were thinking like a townie. I’d be more suspicious of people throwing votes to Spoonsy to “prevent a no lunch” while never updating their reads on Spoonsy (like Nad’s above).

When they can just hold on to their votes for another two hours so they can then pile on in a blameless bandwagon because any execution is better than a no-vote? I haven't liked your defenses before now, and there's a level of desperation in this one that I really don't like. You're frantic to save yourself and want spoonsy to get some more votes so he looks inevitable. I know that town will try to save themselves too, but I think town also have a level of fatalism about it, because if nothing else, they'll be vindicated by the flip. I'm not seeing that in you. ##vote steak
