I agree with what you're saying here, but why the unvote?

Anyways I still think ardulac is scummy even after his post-haiku backtracking - "hey, whoa, I didn't say lynch, just, here are some reasons for getting rid of millers, just in case the vig was a lie". His post looks reasonable on its face, but to me it sounds like laying down some trackwork for a miller lynch train come the D1 deadline scramble.
Accusing me of backtracking for explaining the distinction between what I actually said and what I never said and then attacking me for something you expect me to do in the future. Classy.

Also I thought Skinty McEdger's almost-haiku was funny so I won't vote him. Keane is a wildcard but going after a newbie on a trumped-up charge is...unsettling.
this horrible post. I already addressed the trumped up case against me, but he also engages in a policy lynch and gives two different defenses of Skinty. Oh, and his only other post since the game started was a single line post to vote me for his initial stupid reason. That makes his doubling down on the case on me just seem like Scum not wanting to appear wishy washy.

Juanito for posting a lot without saying much of anything. Most of his votes are :bandwagon:s without any commentary and his other posts are mostly just jokes that are unrelated to the content of the game.

I think this is a scummy post. He's voting for Capps, but spends way more of his time explaining his reasoning for thinking Ardulac is scum. BHB doesn't even seem to think Capps is scum, he just hates it when people say they're scum on D1.

You're right, I don't care if capps is scum, I'm just sick of scumclaiming being given a pass. People choose to scumclaim either because a) they're town and think they're being hilarious to the detriment of anyone who would like to trust them or anything they say further on in the game, or b) they're scum who want to skate by on the assumption that no scum would actually claim scum for any reason, and further want to rub it in town's faces if they survive to win. Either reason is stupid and makes the game not fun to play, and I always have and always will policyvote scum claimers for both of those reasons until it disappears in SA mafia.

As for why I explained my case on Ardulac more than my vote on capps, well, I actually have a case on Ardulac, who's now voted me partly because I policy voted, which is deeply ironic given that his only content this game prior to that post has been to advocate and defend his position on "killing" millers. Now he's voting someone else because Keane more or less told him to stop voting newbies, and the best he could come up with was an OMGUS and a weak case on Juanito that could describe pretty much half of the players in D1 of this (or really any) game.

I agree that Scum claiming is obnoxious, but policy lynching is bad.

You are comically bad at reading my posts. I already explained the difference between lynches and Vigs, and I have a hard time believing you wouldn't be able to see the distinction or at least understand why someone would make it. Keane also didn't tell me to stop voting newbies, I had already said I don't vote new people on Day 1. Keane just pointed out that that was the reason she unvoted when I asked her. My case may be an OMGUS, but your posts just reek of awkwardness and nothing else is leaping out at me.

We're less than 11 hours from the deadline, so I'm hoping we'll see a little more activity. The Capps lynch seems bad and most of the people on it have given no explanation for their votes.

Extending the deadline probably wouldn't do anything to pick up the pace, at this point we probably all need a little more urgency to our posting anyway.
