merk hasnt even been here in 12 years. i got murdered at lylo in a game because he dropped out of it and no other reasons at all. who the gently caress are you to say anything old man

If I was scum (and didn't have a policy of voting you early and often), I'd want to keep you as town in the game until lylo because you will have done no scum hunting the entire game and be the easiest person to convince to lynch.

Who’d you shoot if you had a Day vig

If I had to shoot someone right now, the only actual case that looks to have been made is on YPM. A few people have commented on that case, so I guess we get the most information by shooting YPM.

I have no opinion about the YPM case yet because I just read like 5 pages rapidly. Looking at it now.

My real opinion is that it felt like everyone was dogpiling in DB for an easy D1 case and that I will not be surprised when he flips town and we have to look at everyone on that vote, but no one is actually sticking out directly in my mind yet.

If he flips town, I'd probably look right at you for this post. :)

The above post by Gulag (quoted below, but you need to see nested quotes) is scummy.

GulagDolls posted:

several people in this thread voted merk, and the votes they made, were not good vote.


alright this one is good


this one is untrue in various ways (there is no such thign as a 100 percent scumtell, but people who are trying to 'fit in' are going to be awkward more than those that arent) (DB is not saying words of substance that you can respond to)



this literally doesnt make any sense. literally. literally.


i disagree with what this post is quoting but it is not "very suspicious" (eng translation)


not only is everything in this post untrue besides merk bullying me, but also, hal made this post.

There was a string of votes being made on me. Gulag, knowing I'm not his scum buddy, wants to talk negatively about the bandwagon forming to get town cred when I eventually flip town. He didn't find a single vote made against me that had any merit at all, and his analysis about each vote is pretty thin.

This is probably the scummiest thing to happen so far. ##vote Gulag

I forgot to mention something critical for why that post of his is scummy: he makes no statements about the alignments of anyone. All he's doing is talking negatively about the lynch of someone he knows isn't in his scum doc so he looks good later when I flip town.
