100YrsofAttitude posted:Fair enough but I still have a feeling about you I can't shake. Your cautiousness doesn't seem genuine but rather doctored, like you censored yourself or something. You brought up numerous times at the beginning how lurky/lazy your play was. And come back to it in this latest comment: I apologised for being too lazy to post for the first couple of days of the game - this I think we can all agree is a bad thing, it warrants an apology that was me being polite. The second time was in response to being called a lurker so doesn't make sense for me to deny or ignore it. I claimed lethargy was making me less aggressive, not that it was making me post less, I was describing my mood not my level of activity. I don't think players should be apologetic when putting forward their opinions on the game, it's a totally different thing to apologising for doing something wrong, like not playing at all.

Lumpen posted:Grandi and Punt have each postured suspicion on each other, I am curious whether either of them will pony up a vote on it, but I frankly doubt it. The way they've interacted, and the structure of those posts, indicate Scumbuddy Distancing. I want you dead more than someone who's ill and not really playing, I'll switch my vote if I can't convince people but I'm not gonna get off you before then.

Puntification posted:I want you dead more than someone who's ill and not really playing, I'll switch my vote if I can't convince people but I'm not gonna get off you before then. Did you put forward any case on me, or only express a vague desire for my death? From your posts I can find only self-aware, hesitant OMGUS. I invite you to restate your case, preferably in 3-bullet-point format. Since, as you said, you supposedly desire to convince people.

I've actually resigned to taking a back seat today and waiting for Day 2 to see how people react. I am fairly confident in my DHD case, less confident in my Punt case, but feel not too strongly about either one. I know I don't want to cuddle you or grandicap at least for today, because both of those options feel like crapshoots. I know this sucks because I'm usually loud and obnoxious but this game is just really thick for me to wade through right now and there's not a lot of actual agenda pushing yet.

Lumpen posted:I expect you would only hop on the lynch of one of your Scumbuddies if it appears inevitable, if even then. If you insist, gather round maladies and gentleworms as Puntification theater presents Lumpen, Portrait of a scum: Let's look at his first two votes: Lumpen posted:EXAKT is spazzing out and Mills is right to note: Lumpen posted:I completely agree that agreeing with wall monitor and jumping on his reads instead of coming up with something original constitutes Scummy behavior. It strikes me, as well, as something a Scum would try to do since a manufactured read might come off as awkward, but that by jumping on someone else's opinion on can participate while still staying under the radar. That, combined with Puntification's extreme lurking, leads me to change my vote. Lumpen posted:This thread reminds me of the ol' Sargasso Sea; goes nowhere and full of poo poo. Lumpen posted:Behold, a trial-balloon for an OMGUS. Lumpen posted:I really don't want to get a vote on me, and considering that Puntification put so much tough pressure on me, I change the subject and take this opportunity to shift my focus off Puntification, who has posted their way out of the bottom of the stack. Lumpen posted:Not particularly, I just find her at the bottom of the postcount still. Lumpen posted:If Punt, DHD, and Grandi all flip Scum, it will not surprise me. I'm off to meet some friends will be back later, kill lumpen, he's scum.

I would maybe puppy cuddle TT because it feels like he's more interested in staying out of the conversation than adding to it, but even that is a stab in the dark.

The only thing he has done that comes off as scummy is pushing FV, but I figured he did that because no one came off as particularly scummy at the time? Lumpen posted:Ernie, you posted in the general discussion thread but you remain the lowest poster here besides f_v. I feel curious about your thoughts if you have any new ones. Don't do that. Who cares where else he's posted? It has nothing to do with what happens here.

Politeness is fine and all but your late entry to the game seems just like the ones of many other players. None of them apologized except DHD who expressed regret from being sick at the time the game started. I feel like we've hit an impasse again because try as I might I really can't help but shake that feeling that your posts are a bit fabricated. I believe you when you say you feel lethargic and all that but why be so forward about it in such a sterile way? It comes down to your tone for me I guess.

It's simple mafia courtesy. Read people's posts, respond to them if they are aimed at you. I don't find his case particularly compelling since it seems like a post by post case but why blast the guy to make content and then not read his content? That's just rude.

I don't find his case particularly compelling since it seems like a post by post case but why blast the guy to make content and then not read his content? That's just rude. I disagree with you labeling my not engaging with those I consider Scum as "rude". It remains totally impossible and a waste of time to dissuade a Scum from an insincere "case" they falsely generated, because they don't believe themselves anyway. Looking at what Punt produced, I am additionally convinced that Punt argues in bad faith. You evaluated the case yourself and found it unconvincing. Very good. So what motivates your vote? Even if you consider me a jerk, that never justifies lynching a Townie.

Nobody seems to want to jump on 100 years. That's fine. I'd like if we could revisit him tomorrow, though. In the absence of getting a mob going on 100 years, I'd be comfortable enough with a vote on ##vote Puntification.

So you're arguing I should hold myself to a relative standard of being least lovely instead of not being poo poo to play with? You said earlier insincerity is anti-town, vote lumpen. Lumpen posted:I don't acknowledge any validity to it. Why argue with a Scum? If you find something about it convincing, question me. He's certain I'm scum D1 pre-flip? Who has that level of certainty day loving 1? He's a loving fake and full of it. How meaningless is it to say you find the case against you unconvincing? He engages with none of the content. He should at least address the point that there's no logical sense in 3 scum going out of their way to railroad 1 dude when they can just NK the PoS.

I recall Lumpen playing like this before, voting on d1 lurkers as a form of pressure, but not to the exclusion of all else. I feel like he is playing like he thinks a town lumpen plays but does not have a ~~town mind~~. It is the difference between faking a read and making a read.

Also, if people are giving me a day pass so that I can post and get back in post count contention, that is a noble thing. But if you are Lumpen, and will just jump on me tomorrow, don't use my sickness as a reason to not vote me today. As long as you don't look too closely at the Me<->Punt scumteam thing when I flip town and have that clear him or something.

You said earlier insincerity is anti-town, vote lumpen. Ras got it when he said he'd vote off the rude. I read Lumpen as sincere. The issue lays in the fact that he comes off like a massive dick, which seems to be the actual case. That does not mean scum however. At least not to me.

But he always comes off like such an abrasive jerk though right? Because I remember him like that and that memory is helping me from reading him as scummy.

I always have an impression of him as Inspector Clouseau when he is town, but there seems to be some latent antagonism to him this game. That's just the impression I have. Another thing I noticed: Lumpen posted:If Punt, DHD, and Grandi all flip Scum, it will not surprise me. Guess who were the only three who had said anything a bit negative about him up to that point?

As far as Grandicap is concerned several people have agreed on the oddness of his post and we've got several players with their own reasons to vote Puntification. Though I have no idea why he suspects you frankly. I will go to sleep soon and I don't think I'll get up early to make deadline. I've got no qualms leaving my post on Punt. I'll stick around for about 20-30 minutes in case anyone has any questions about whatever.
