Would daycop redneck, mainly cause that vote on Sandwolf looks awful suspicious. Combined with the fact he also hasn't been posting much, it makes him look like scum - but I didn't post all that much in my last game, and I was town, so it's a null point by itself imo. Still reinforces the fact that the only post he's made is a vote for someone without a reason. That's pretty scummy to me.

Flam isn't that new and I agree that it was a bad post that contradicts itself right in the middle.

"He made a scummy vote and hasn't been posting, but I wasn't posting and I was town so it that doesn't make him scum but reinforces that he's scummy and made a scummy vote."

Still want to vote Sandwolf who hasn't posted yet since the game started, but would switch to Flam.

Intelligent and bright, they explored a world that was new and strange to them. They liked it, they thought - a whole world just for them! They were dimly aware that a God had created them, was watching them; they called out to him, thanking him in a chittering language, before running off.

he's played 7 games.

yeah the post is poorly worded but it's emotionally honest in a way that i don't think scum are capable of. when you're playing scum, do you often take a brief aside to comment on your crappy play in the middle of making a point?

he's making the valid point that lurking is alignment neutral and that redneck's vote was scummy.

Asiina, I've been in six Mafia games on these forums before this. Out of those games, I died within the first couple days on more than half of them (FF5, Both Choose Your Own Cartridges, Flavorful). On the others, I made it fairly far (D4-5 on Mega Man Mafia 2, second-to-last day on Ravenswood Haunting).

When it boils down to it, I've only had 2 games and 4 d2s worth of experience. One scum, one town. That was my point.

Anyways, my argument contradicts itself, right? Mind pointing out how so? Because you missed out a bit. 'By itself.' I was saying that the vote wasn't necessarily enough evidence. He could have posted soon after, giving a reason. Or even post at all. But the fact that he hasn't posted in this thread that much apart from a joke conversation about popping shortly after the game's start, that vote that basically says 'holy poo poo sandwolf is in this???' and his signup leads me to believe that redneck's probably scum.

The funny thing is, I thought that for a sec too, that nazgul was throwing stones in glass houses there. But while his vote on Sandwolf might be a bit hypocritical, it was hardly without reason. The reason was: Sandwolf is mad lurking.

Hi I'm here. Is redneck a name change? Because I've literally never heard of them and they're exclaiming of me in the game feels super disingenuous if I've never actually heard of them.

Sorry for being mad lurky, y'all, but c'mon it has been the weekend.

I don't like the people pressing Flamander that hard, it's a pretty innocent statement. "Yeah, I get it, he's lurking, that's scummy. But recently, I was town and lurked, so, bluh." Which is saying nothing, but it's absolutely a thought process I feel like I see occur every game.
