EccoRaven posted:I think Ernie wants us to deliberately play sub-optimally ("scummy") because he's genuinely afraid he won't be able to post townie this game, so if he gets even a few townies to follow him he'll get to hide better. To be more clear, this post is a "pretty scummy post" as far as scummy posts go. I find it hard to believe that Ecco legitimately believes this ridiculous argument.

By Terrordon's incinerating breath, the snark here saddens Krak. Terrordon cares not for passive aggression, it smashes his heart. I'm not going to vote Ernie. I don't feel like Ecco is being especially genuine in his casing. Listen to merk, please. There is no reason to not vote Ixt. In my experience he rarely posts as scum and I don't think he's a productive townie. I mean, his defense for today was to whine about being picked on after a long absence. There's plenty of content and time to do work and push for any one of the other contenders, but he won't. He's the kind of guy to duck out after getting heat and hope everyone forgets he exists. Don't give him a pass because he's been away for a bit, it's his responsibility to play when he signs up. What little play he has put forward has been quintessential scum posting. If nothing else, just listen to merk. Even if he's wrong, that's very useful. Ernie is posting, and honestly I'm sick of playing with lurkers. Give him a day pass if for no other reason than he's trying, probably harder than you are. I would be angry if I were him too. I'm fairly certain that Ecco and Dugong are also scum but I lack the patience and real keyboard required to do anything about that.

The thing about Ecco is that there's no way you're going to get him lynched day 1, so you may as well forget about it until later. Ixt, however, is definitely a dude we can get lynched on day 1.

I don't really even know how we scum hunt in this game after today. I usually look for connections.

("Playing like town" means posting often, not hiding their thoughts, and being sincere in their scumhunting. It's harder than a normal game because of the lack of connections, but if town actually rolls up their sleeves and tries, it really won't be that bad.)

Everyone, let us be like America for the 30 years before the Civil War. Let's ignore this debate of whether Ecco or Ernie are scummy (falling on the Ecco side, but that's neither here nor there) and get rid of complete dead weight tonight. Help me make this island Motley-less.

also anyone who says that drawing connections is impossible in this game is basically pretending like they don't know how other people play around them as scum or town for example, i know ixt played/talked to me like town ixt would talk to me just as well as i know somber is defending me like town somber would just as well as i know that ecco is cherry-picking stances as they benefit him and avoiding taking on too big of a target like merk, just like scum ecco would

Ixt thoughts:Ixtlilton posted:Also, the psychadelic octopus is the only person who's pinged me at all for scum. This is the only thing pinging my scumdar right now about Ixt's posts. "this guy is scum, okay see ya!" He never ends up explaining why. I guess you could say throughout his posts he's just dropping reads to make it seem like he's dropping reads and not actually giving any explanation. I don't think his side chatting is scummy, especially this early in the game. There was nothing wrong with vodkachat or Opop chat. Although him getting mad at Ernie for saying that he was scummy seems like he is on a hair trigger. But I do remember him getting easily frustrated. I'm not really seeing him being scum. Somber on a side note I'm so bummed that you had to drop your Terrordon PR because you have no access to a laptop.

It was hardly that many votes that it required you repeating that point instead of, oh I don't know, maybe restating the merits of your case instead. You're talking about Ernie's lead as if he has so many votes, and anyone else so few that his lynching is almost inevitable. As if people should vote him because there's a case floating out there somewhere and, hey there really aren't many other choices. I think your posting is designed to make votes on Ernie more likely without having to restate your case, or update it in light of his additional posting.
