To be done with all this measuring of proof.

And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Oh, shut up. I pour my heart out and number out a bunch of reasons why anidav can't be mafia, and all you do is post a stupid crypic three word phrase that ultimately means nothing?

At least your user name and avatar are apt because you are a loving BIRD BRAIN! :mad:

Those aren't reasons for why Anidav is mafia though (him being gone would be good regardless), they're reasons why I'm a. bad and b. bad at the game.

real posting not noise.

this italicised bit throws up some alarm.
"resign yourself", this is a statement not by a townie. this is a between gritted teeth threat. "just let the knife into your chest. it is inevitable."
amongst all the noise, mine included, we have MC Eating Disorder telling Anidav that he's going to die. not because it's a good strategy, not because he will be vindicated or for the good of the town, but because he is helpless.

Watching Anidav from a GMs perspective in my game, this is not how he behaved when he was going down and guilty.

You are all poking him to get a reaction, a meltdown for funnies. And it's hard to sift the people doing it for lols and those who are helping the town send an innocent to his death for sinister purposes.

MC Eating Disorder has bared his teeth here.

The sly grin of a villain.

so far the only two people I have any reason to believe are scum at all are GSC (voted for beet, the strongest town player) and ironic sex tourist (voted for someone for what seemed like absolutely no reason) and even then I'm not nearly sure enough about either of those two to make any kind of an accusation
, and I've got a job interview to go to, since I don't know how long I'm going to be gone for I'm just going to ##vote anidav (sorry dude, its for the good of the town!)

If there's no hammer by the time I get back and ongoing developments I'll consider switching but I'm pretty happy with my decision for now

This is a tactic discussed a lot in scum docs, one of these people will be scum, setting up a bus or misdirected suspicion, to evidence 'I'm a good guy'. But always prefaced with "I don't know for sure" hue hue don't blame me...

Town don't need to cover their tracks with "I'm just an townie in the dark like you." it's a pretty plain and guilty scum tell.

It would save us all a ridiculous amount of otherwise constructive discussion over the course of the game, arguing whether Anidav is town or scum, because when push comes to shove it probably doesn't matter when he does things like he did in the last game (e.g. fake role claim, hinting heavily that it's SO IMPORTANT that he lives because of REASONS).

But that also makes him an easy target to push for a lynch as scum (if anidav is town): you hide your motivations to win behind character accusations.

I definitely feel comfortable accusing kommando of being scum after he

a) spammed up the thread AND the votefinder

AND

b) zeroed in on me for what I think is a weak reason, but that's not really surprising and there's STILL not really enough evidence in my mind to vote based on anything other than gut instincts because its day 1 and anidav is just a good scapegoat for a huge game that really needs to get a quick lynch off to get some bearings

honestly I don't see what is wrong with rushing to lynch today. there's been a lot of chatter, but it's been pretty unhelpful. there's a loving shitload of people, good transformers jokes to be made, but not really much that's worth reading too much into. if the day ended right now I honestly don't think we'd be in a worse position for D2 than if the day ended at 9pm

If anidav is town, scum can vote for him and hide behind the bandwagon
If he's scum, scum can vote for him and be somewhat immune from suspicion for at least a little while. This happened in the game before last, where scum voted out scumidav to "prove" their innocence.

idk the only ones who really benefit from the thread closing early are scum since it gives them fewer opportunities to step on a rake, doesn't do much harm to town keeping it open for fresh shitposting, especially if the lynch seems to be a foregone conclusion which it might be here
