I do believe your lovely work situation, I'm not gonna press too hard on it because I have been there. But I did say I was going to make a case and this is where my conclusions landed. I think you're scummy but I do hope work poo poo clears up for you sooner rather than later, salad.

My impression of PA's posts is that he's town but on reflection I'm not actually sure why. There's a lot of short content dense contributions, drive-by reads, that kind of thing. But it's very under-the-radar style posting, which I'm suspicious of. PlasticAutomaton posted:Binus are you an N0 Ecco Cop or something Then there's poo poo like this which pings me really hard. Is it a joke? Is it serious? It leaves room to be either, and that is not good to me. Hell if we're gonna turbo someone why not turbo plastic

I really don’t understand why you guys aren’t voting keane. His wologar case was one of the most flimsy cases I’ve ever seen. Wologar was posting normal reads like anyone else and keane kept trying to gotcha him over nothing. Keane called hal scum during jokephase, said he would vote him, eventually did vote after I asked him why he wasn’t, and then immediately went after wologar. Keane needs to be the vote today and if he is scum, hal is almost certainly scum.

I'll vote on Keane vs Mae here in a bit if I need to, but I wanted to post my reads beforehand. Also Mae is at -3 at Keane at -4 so I want to at least hear them both out before deadline. We've still got time.

Maerlyn does seem a bit aggressive in her posts, which comes off as scummy to me:Maerlyn posted:I'm sorry you rolled scum this time, I'd be bored too. Maerlyn posted:I refuse to believe you've never heard of hated/loved, don't lie like that shwinn 😣 Maerlyn posted:I'm just a normal human man, I'm rather handsome actually! I do find it strange that scum would claim VT that early, if only because the second they were caught doing any sort of night action, they'd be up for lunch. In favor of the scumMaerlyn case, that disengaged claim could definitely be read as an excuse for scumlurking. Maerlyn posted:I've never actually played with Monathin but I'm not seeing anything overtly scummy from him yet, so more null for now. Maerlyn posted:I'm sorry I reread your posts but didn't see a "going to take it easy this game" memo, I can't say I've ever seen you as a disengaged player. I also feel like that's a copout for what is essentially not even that much of a "case", more like an observation and agreement with others that you are coming across a little scummy. Again, Maerlyn going pretty aggressive after Yami's case on me. When I saw those posts, it actually came across as her trying to protect me, which is a bit weird on D1.

yeah mona the theory is just me thinking keane is town. I liked the stuff on mona and also cloac(?) i think that is keane but I didn't have strong feelings on wololo re the vig? I don't give a poo poo because there's no evidence of a vig and the players are being cagey as gently caress about their role afaik. I don't care if people have vigs or not vigs. whats interesting to me is the decision to claim it day one (and try and describe it's powers so that scum can escape the vig?) + people reacting by saying 'oh yeah third party killer or scum' with that kind of comment just passing from the collective memories of us all.

For what it’s worth, Maerlyn claimed a role to me private that makes me think she’s town. I admit there’s an outside chance that she’s scum, and tbh she was pinging my scumdar early in d1, but I don’t think she is the best choice for today. Keane has to be scum. When in doubt, go with the sure thing.

Yeah her case on Yami is what's giving me extra scumpings, whereas as I've said before Keane's on wolo is wrong but seems genuine and actually thought through. So there's that.

Toal I think that is a misread of what cloaca said. My understanding was cloaca was just pointing out a role that can kill is NAI in a role madness game, which is true. I don't think she ever claimed that means 3rd party (which, I agree, would be a scummind thing to post)

Seriously you can reread AN's whole postcount in literally one minute, tell me what Hal's on about with "appreciating her joking around" or whatever. He was either defending AN as a scumbud or whiteknighting a town AN for reasons that make no sense.

On the Keane case, that wol case of his is weird, I agree. Especially because of this:wologar posted:Wait, are you implying that I wanted to save Plastic because we're both scum? CCKeane posted:No. Keane has been accusing wol of being scum because he's trying to protect Plastic for pages now, but he doesn't think both of them are scum? If that's not the case, why is wol protecting Plastic an issue? And honestly, the whole "wol is protecting Plastic" thing seems a bit out of left field. wologar posted:Friends! I have it on good authority that the crewmate with the least number of posts will EXPLODE the following day. wologar posted:If anything, Maer and Hal are at risk of being exploded by post count. wologar posted:Just remember not to be the one with the least votes at deadline! wologar posted:I was referring to this: wologar posted:That could be the case but as someone who always sees Plastic as scum, he seems fine this game so far. wologar posted:That being said, Plastic, buddy, please post more. You're the one at risk of exploding now and we only have 27 hours left. I don't see how this last post is somehow more "keeping Plastic safe" than the earlier part where wol pointed out the same for Maer and Hal.

Actually, now that I think about it, the Keane case really makes no sense with wol's posts here:wologar posted:That could be the case but as someone who always sees Plastic as scum, he seems fine this game so far. wologar posted:That being said, Plastic, buddy, please post more. You're the one at risk of exploding now and we only have 27 hours left. CCKeane posted:So who has this information, right? There's not a post from HCT. I didn't get a bomb warning in my PM. So I think wologar is trying to put a veil over an ability to add a layer of passivity to a quite possibly anti town event. If wologar does have this ability, then concealing information from town is harmful. Just before the warning, wologar had explicitly stated that he sees Plastic as town, and he has also said that he would vote Illu: wologar posted:I'd vote ANarc, Cloaca or Illusionis. So that's the exact explanation that Keane keeps claiming is missing.

Cloacamazing! posted:On the Keane case, that wol case of his is weird, I agree. Especially because of this: People seem to be very confused about my case, so I will lay it out here, and people can pick the points they disagree with.: -Town is interested in executing scum and have reasons to think/change their mind on alignments. This can always be openly discussed. -Scum are interested in not executing their teammates. This cannot be openly discussed, so they have to conceal motives/attempt to take actions that garner good vibes. Scum CANNOT openly and truthly discuss the reasons for changing their minds/unusual actions, so they have to manufacture them. -Wologar took an action to protect Plastic over Illusionis. When pressed, wologar's points didn't seem consistent with what I'd expect town to do, and wologar has been generally cagey about the nature of the low post count killing. -The reason I think Wologar is scum is because wologar's reasons for choosing plastic over illusionis aren't explained well, and it took a while to get to "I think Illusionis is scummier than Plastic.". When pressed for why Illusionis is scummier than Plastic, wologar deflected, underexplained, and declined. -Plastic's alignment is irrelevant to my case - the lack of explanation/seeming manufactured nature of wologar's arguments are why I think wologar is scum. Plastic could be town scum wologar thinks would be easier to manipulate! Who knows!

Cloacamazing! posted:Actually, now that I think about it, the Keane case really makes no sense with wol's posts here: Right, and if wologar said "Plastic is townier than Illusionis" right out of the gate, that'd be whatever, like I said several times. What wologar did say when pressed was: wologar posted:Plastic has 14 posts, the lowest post count. That's it. Followed by: wologar posted:You noticed I said the same thing to Hal and Maer, right? As of this post, the other two players with the lowest post counts are Illusionis and ANarc, which I'm happy voting for. If you were town, and somebody asked you why you pressed Plastic to post more, what would you say right away? Would it be "Plastic has a low post count" followed by "I've warned other people about low post counts?"

I don't think b-'s arguments hold water, though - and I think highlighting that I am simultaneously scummy for not interacting with a player voting me, and also, scummy for interacting with somebody voting on me is relevant for showing it's a bad case.

Cloacamazing! posted:But why is scumwologar interested in protecting Plastic-with-unknown-alignment openly and to the exclusion of other players? This is the part that I don't understand. Okay, I think I actually see where we're missing each other. So plastic COULD be scum, right? But I don't really think there's a strong link, and I don't think Plastic's alignment is a strong component to how I personally view this. I don't really have a read on plastic. That doesn't mean "I think Plastic is town and wologar is scum"

Put in other words - If right now HCT came in an said "Plastic is mod confirmed town" I would still be voting wologar for the posts around it.

So basically my approach to scum hunting is finding folks who can't explain/don't adequately explain their thoughts and process. And I do think wologar hits this - in particular, there's little explanation for why Plastic is townier than Illusionis, townier by enough of a margin to throw Illusionis to the wolves to save Plastic.

Anyway, 4 hours to spare so! I'm a psychic frog and I can message people. I messaged Wologar, bif, and Maerlyn today. I used my power only for mischief and tomfoolery. During the night, I can used them for scum hunting, but, you know, it's funny to trick wologar into posting a poem and bif into making fart jokes.
