Keep in mind that hammer fell before deadline.

You and infin built a scum case on moat. Great job. And I'm not 'OMGUS'ing you, I'm just saying that your judgment has been proven, at least once, to be off the mark.

If you lynch me, it will be proven bad yet again. Does that prove that you're scum? No, it just proves that you've got zero interest in making town cases for anyone.

I actually am really willing to vote AA purely for the way he is misrepresenting his play at EOD yesterday. He's acting like this hammer came in and procured him from continuing to offer an opinion. This is false. The hammer came in because there were LITERALLY >5 minutes at the time it occurred. AA was not posting in a manner at the time that made any of us think he was actually paying attention to the thread.

The town thing to do in this case is to say "yeah I kinda hosed that up, I didn't realize how close to deadline we were when I started a reread and I was focusing on that instead of the clock." OR "I know it was going to be tight but it really was important for me to make an informed decision, but I should have said who I was planning on voting at the start of it rather than leaving everyone in the dark while I maybe did what I was saying."

What AA is CONTINUALLY insisting on here is that he was kept from voting by a hammer coming down early. That...that is simply not the case.

I kind of feel like I've said everything I have to say about Adahn. He's by far my top scum read, I'm trying to get other people to give feedback on my case, and I'm voting there. We're talking in circles so I don't really know what else there is to say.

First and foremost I cannot imagine at -1 in a 9 person game Adahn, having hosed up that much as scum and with me on him like a hound, does anything but give up and shut up. Instead he starts naming people and offering opinions on them. He has continued to do that today, knowing he would be a major candidate. Unless he is banking 100% on not going down AT ALL, his scum flip will basically hand the game to us cause we can probably figure out who the remaining scum is somewhere in there.

And again, I just don't see that being the correct scum play. Adahn strikes me as smart, and if he knew he had hosed up royally, he would shut up as scum, I think, so as to give his partner a fighting chance. His list posting strikes me as someone who does not care if he continues as a voting force in the game, and scum wouldn't do that. It's the main reason I unvoted him.

I don't like this case. I'm not disagreeing with you that it's weird that AA didn't hammer, but I don't see how that's indicative of his alignment given that Moat flipped town. It feels like an insignificant detail - I don't see what's in it for scum to delay the hammer there.

I don't know how many times I have to say: read Adahn's posts. He's using a lot of words, but he isn't saying anything. His "opinions" that are giving you a town read on him are just him saying "I think __ is town", which is something scum does more than town.

Why are you spinning my words around, I'm just saying I was there. Sorry I have obligations and a limited lunch break. I don't see what's unclear about that. Furthermore, I'm blaming no one.

You're pushing a strange point here, and keep in mind that I wasn't the only person around at end of day, like I don't see how me not wanting to hammer a player I believed to be town is scummy and I feel like you are being willfully ignorant to force a point.

He was quick hammered from my stance because when I left for lunch Adahn had 4 votes on him... how is that strange to you. I'm not saying its like a start of day turbo, just that the time between adahn being at -1 to moat being hammered was quick. You're taking that way out of context seemingly intentionally.

Every time you come in here it's to tell us how you are a victim and it makes me think you are scum.

You are correct that you haven't called anyone out here beyond the initial "quickhammer" post and I see where you are coming from in regards to the Moat vote shifting very quickly, and I can see you missing that during a reread, and also understand you not wanting to hammer someone you think is town.

Ok, so what happened was the cop had investigated me. I tried to cast shade on exactly one other person (Kashuno) and that failed.

You're all welcome to check the thread, or you can lynch me based on Dawny's gross misinterpretation of what happened leading up to my being lynched.

When I woke up the next day after making my case on Moat I caught up on the hundred or so posts that were made overnight.

Li Dawny came off feeling incredibly opportunistic and trying to steer the conversation.
Something I'm noticed a lot in Dongs as well earlier.

I'm in bed atm, 6am in Australia, but I plan on making proper cases for them both when I wake up later today. Just hard to quote poo poo on mobile.

I didn't think he was faking non-chalance, but at least he'll be around to weigh in.

Quid, dongs, and AA seem to care about who gets lynched and who doesn't, which makes me think they lean town.

Max was pressed for time, but the flippancy with which he changed is troubling (he didn't feel good about the vote but was prepared to stump me regardless).

Dawny's case against me was built around actions she herself took (trying to get dongs to bandwagon on me was a bit scummy), as well as apparently my behavior prior to being lynched in another game. However, since she hasn't played with me when I was both scum and town, I hardly think it's fair of her to generalize my behavior.

We've got a lot of time, so I'm in no rush to vote, but I'm still most suspicious of Dawny and Max.

At the same time, I'd appreciate having heat fed my way, as my primacy as a lynch target will keep me from getting primed.


Adahn1986 posted:

MMT's strongest scum reads this game so far are me (I'm 100% tree) and Moat (proven tree).

I feel like she's quite an astute player, but has been working to throw people off their game more than anything.

In essence, that's the impression that I got before and it's been consistent.

Infinitum went insane on Moat, but his choice of Dawny for today seems a bit odd. Still hard to read him.

Max is also still a hard read. I feel like he should be a scary force of town justice, but he seems like he's holding back? Trying to escape notice?

I think I will trust my gut, and my head, and our stump buddy and go with ##vote MMT for now.


I don't understand why you have a problem with these cases MMT. This looks like town thinking to me. Can you explain again why you think he's just calling people town and doing nothing else, beacause he's definitely not here.

So because I'm not playing the game to how you think I should play under pressure, I'm scum? That's truly ridiculous. I'm not coming in to play the victim or just appear when called out, but I mean if I'm actively being cased or called scum, why wouldn't I try to refute the arguments?

I am most suspicious about you, li dawny, max and dong. Although Dong made a very good point today about the switch that makes me think he might be town. So I'd say you, max and li dawny in that order.

MMT's insistence on Adahn being scum reads as fake. Her lumping me in with Adahn as a potential scumbuddy makes no sense, and I don't believe if she had actually read any of me she would be making that claim now.

The only other person she has really given an opinion on that I remember is Moat, who we know is town, and who she helped lock in as dunk yesterday by moving her vote off of Adahn after my unvote. Like I said, scum might actually be wanting more no-dunks than stumps, so I could see her doing this with Adahn as town.

Beyond that, I don't see her offering any reads. This is odd MMT play and the most damning thing right now is her trying to connect me and Adahn. Makes no sense with my play at EOD yesterday, and she should have seen and known that SINCE SHE WAS THERE AT THE TIME.

Li is mostly gut, she's way under the radar, not really posting much except to snipe, and her play where she was town was WAY different than this.
