Hal, why do you think Jam would only replace out as scum?

Well apostateCourier, let me start by first saying I would only make a case like this early into D1, as it's weak at best.

Jamuraan is a fine player, one who despises lurking but ironically (is that the correct use of that word?) he tends to be somewhat reticent to post himself. While he despises all lurkers, he holds a special place in his heart for hating lurking scum.

Jamuraan would be able to live with himself as a lurking town player and would most likely attempt to stay in the game if at all possible, but as scum he would not be able to live with himself if he lurked his way to a victory and/or let down his teammates who would be counting on his experience and wisdom to help carry them to a scum victory. Since Jamuraan is still relatively young and feels he may still have a long, productive and perhaps exciting life he would much more readily step away from this outstanding ecco-like being run by fine mod Max were he to have been assigned a scum role.

Ooh yay D1 content. I like this argument for voting Hal, but if I'm not actually feeling him as scum by the end of today I'm also up for voting flerp, just cause he needs some time out to come up with a new drat gimmick.

Jam probably started to type out a post, got too angry, had a heart attack and died.

Have you actually ever seen Jam's scum game? I haven't seen any games where he's been scum at all. If you're thinking of back when he used to post before, isn't that a long time ago?

This is an interesting shift, from "looks like they're trying to actually gather info and find a lead on D1 to move out of jokephase" to "just blindly vote with no comment on anything that ~looks weird~ hoping it picks up traction"

Of course I have seen his scum game and I am pretty sure since he’s been back. But really that’s not relevant here since this is about his intent and not his actions

I Do Not Like that post you made, more than I don't like Hal's weird case based on the replaced poster's history. It was a weird call-out you made and yes I admit it's a gut call.

Actually it's about me trying to work out your intent, since I am in the position to already know Jam's alignment.

It's almost as if it was a personal joke that you could not understand from not having been there for the relevant Mafia history, but who needs to try and infer context when it gives you something weird-sounding to vote without feeling self-conscious!

So because I don't understand the social context and voted based on a thing that, without that context, Is Weird, is scummy? The way you're responding to this is making me more and more comfortable with my vote.
