I sort of agree with this even though I'm not always wild about cuddling new players too. But like at the same time if they are scummy I think it's the thing to do.

I'm not worried about getting bandwagoned, it's fine if a few people vote for me if I'm really acting all that suspicious.

I generally don’t have a problem lunching newbies acting scummy. But you’re right it is an unwritten sa mafia rule. Fine ##unvote

like I understand I held this position early on today, still think STG has done some scummy things, but picking him today, now, feels like a bad 'we need a lunch' choice and you unvoting here actually makes me feel a bit better about you

DB, what posts of Solus gave you a town read, and did you get a chance to go back and read Sci’s Solus case/what do you think of it? 10:30 EST is cutting it pretty close to deadline.

Sol's early posting was not great but I like their later posts. Reads like they are prodding players to figure them out and also being open with their own takes.

Fair enough. I mentioned Solus in an earlier post but left them in null instead of leaning scum because on reread I also like a few of their later posts. Don’t think it’s enough for me to lean town on Solus yet, but we’ll see what develops.

This series of posts pings me. Reads a tad bit desperate to get a rolling start on Solus whom I am reading as town. Phone posting @ work until 1030 est., so I haven't gone back to check but I'm doubting Scientastic has a very good case.

##vote Scientastic

I plan on giving a good re-read when I get home.

scientastic's case on me is bad and dumb but it also doesn't feel scummy, it feels like a carryover from the last game we were in

if this poo poo keeps up into D2, then he's not actually making reads and then it's scummy, right now it just feels like residual tunnelling that I was admittedly egging on with the :rolleyes:

Because I’m hoping to hear more from the people I have on my scum list between now and deadline to solidify my impression? I don’t feel that’s particularly controversial. I already said I was going to be around.

Overly defensive and being a grumpy rear end in a top hat.

Also, responded to a little bit of pressure with a lot of defensiveness.

The problem with that is that that's default humalong, and I'm not sure that he's scum. Out of the two of you, since you're the vote leaders, I'd prefer to vote you, since I get more of a scum feeling from you than I do from Hum.

This is an interesting argument for you to make given that in a quick reread of you, your only substantial call has been ASF as scum:

This is your whole case that I can find, and the rest is basically sniping. You haven't cased anyone but it feels like you're really pushing a hum lunch.
