Tired Moritz posted:mmmm people who overreact are scum? idk but Jam had also been on a losing streak so maybe I'm just more likely to overlooked their behavior. i mean, yeah. scum have to lie if they want to stay active. hyperbole is the softest kind of lie. having an exaggerated reaction to a small amount of suspicion is inherently scummy. consider it from this angle. i said that, in my first scum game, i did the random roll to determine who to vote, and I voted my scum bud. So, I initially pointed a finger at Hog, but said that Jam was probably his scum bud. Since I was casing Hog, the only reason for Jam to intervene there is if I was right. Hog was my focal point here. If Hog flipped scum then I'd come after him next. Otherwise, why start an argument? If Hog flipped town I'd say 'ah gently caress oops' and move on, I wouldn't go back to Jam.

After a few hours sleep, I'm starting to come around on Somber's case.Jamuraan posted:OMGUS. Jamuraan posted:I'm vanilla town, your vote on me is meaningless, just like existence. Jamuraan posted:Cool projection and lynch chaining, scumbo. Jamuraan posted:Are you autistic? The more I contextualize his first few post, and the more I read his responses, the worse he starts to look. I'll go into more detail if anyone wants, but let's be real, nobody reads long posts. I'd almost say Jam looks like a defensive newbie town, but he is definitely not a newbie. This is probably as good of a D1 case as we're going to get. ##vote Jamuraan

On a mostly unrelated note: Hi, Jam. I don't know if we've ever played a game together before. What are your pronouns? Actually, what are everyone's pronouns? There's a few of you I haven't played with, and I'm sure someone isn't certain about at least one of us. I use she/her! (but I have a dick and make a lot of shitposts about it)

Somberbrero posted:that was the initial premise. I'm town The only person I feel at all comfortable voting for right now is Jamuraan, but that's only like a 30% maybe not even that. Somberbrero's at maybe 5% just for being so eager which doesn't mean much but there's not much else to go on d1 Also sus is peramene's line calling Cpig a liar which seemed to come out of nowhere Other than that, maybe a lurker?

Jam's a goddamn lunatic is FFV was anything to go by. That said him being rude and throwing out slurs is consistent with his town behaviour in that game.

In the recent temple game town Jam was pretty much over-reacting to everything and throwing a fit the whole game which seems pretty much like what is happening here. The reason I am ok voting Somber right now is that I feel like I have seen exactly this sort of aggressive play from him as scum before where he just came in and tried to control the narrative from the start (which by the way is a cool way to play scum) so I am just going on that for now. I think Nazgul/Betrayer's pop in to vote me and pop out is also pretty suspicious but I just got through saying I missed playing with him in the discussion thread so my heart isn't in going after him D1

Tired Moritz posted:it's d1, what do you expect? no, definitely not necessarily; i am basing my opinion almost solely on his reaction to somber's posting. I don't read anything into Hog's alignment because of that, i'd rather read his reaction in a vacuum at this point in the game

Question: From a metagame point of view, is that really a behavior that you want to reward? Is the doubt that he's not scum worth encouraging this in the future when he wants to look town?

To put it another way: "It's okay that he's being a lovely person because he's always a lovely person" may be technically accurate, but in a situation like this where there's some doubt, I'm going to err on the side of "stop being lovely".

It's using a non-game (or at best "future meta") argument to justify a push. You don't vote someone just because they're Town-aligned Shithead or because you don't like them personally.
