Sbell is their ever a game when im town you dont think im scum? Just curious
---

See this is more what I expect from Death. Suns getting real low and yet he's not currently voting anyone!
---

I find it absurd beyond measure that you would say my approach to this game is low effort when I woke up this morning and posted two posts full of reactions and reads.

This reminds me. Don't you owe me a non-suspicion game after the last time you tunneled me for days and I was town <_<

Can everyone please, in order, give me a list of their top five scum suspects? I think this would prove interesting given the current game state.

Lopen
Cam
Sultan
Chris
Puns

That last one i really just grabbed because he's voting me, my suspicions are limited at the moment.

That's kind of unusual since I was also voting you and you expressed a dislike of my sw shucksing

I never said i thought you were scum. And I only had one spot to fill. I've actually been good on you all day even if i didn' tlike the roll over.

Hey SBell come at me

you cannot vote for yourself. However, your unvote is counted

Hey Ulti vote for me so SBell will gain some guts to actually put an argument against his #1 scum suspect.

The problem with that question is you assume I know you are town when i am trying to kill you. So I will say it is likely that when i am scum hunting I find myself standing before a sultan and i try to lynch it. However i am sure there must be a game I did not want to kill you. I just dont know where that game is.
---

Fair enough sbell
---

Also ##Vote: Red13n again I guess cause we can't lose that high pressure lead.

Wait, I am the Hulk now?
I mean I am a master of science.

Anyway neither red, nor dowolf nor sbell have impressed me much in may topic1 reread. But Sbell at least seems to have posted an excuse for lessened activity. (which I already forgotduring my dinner break but whatevs)
---

(for the record I have somewhat 5 hours of time left)
---

DoomTheGyarados posted...

If you are town you really, truly, need to stop vastly underestimating the type of town player I am.

Ok well I do look forward to your upcoming game breaking solution. (Not sarcasm, kinda)

Hbthebattle posted...

My problem with MZeros lynch is that hes an inactive, and there are better ways to handle inactive than a Day 1 lynch.

Please don't pass him off so easily. Im not voting him for inactivity, I'm voting because one of the few things he did say pinged me harder than anything else in the game
---

And he claimed. So what? I know Han is dicking with us but lynching Harry Potter is dumb regardless of what the actual claim is.

In the mean time I want Ulti to explain this statement
---

Lopen, from what i've digested so far this game, you had a lot of talk about +ev and -ev, you bickered with ulti a bit. you joked a plenty and even commented on the early phases of the game being light hearted and fluff filled but i think by the time you said that it was already page 3.

You pushed my suspicion of you off like it was all based on personal past, something i'd expect scum to actually respond with. Ignore the pressure, pander to real life.

You too were on Cam, however i do not remember why now. would you mind filling me in with what it was Cam did that had you ready to vote him?

I'll admit i am missing most of your other content and a re-read might be prudent, however i feel strongly enough about what I had early to keep you at the top of my list.
---

did you explain said ping before, Ben?

1. Scare
2.
3.
4.
5.

You know I was tossing this around and seeing this I'm convinced

##unvote
##vote:puns

I bought his claim because oh Miller claim sure

But he just came from a f3 with a Miller claim along side him

And need I remind people that puns as scum started game of thrones 4 by posting the entire scum team in his intro post?

Claiming the bible Miller is right out of puns scum playbook

I would rather he be resolved now

is this to me?

I wasn't calling your approach to the game as a whole low effort. I was just saying that particular post was an excellent return on investment

Fucking AFFC Mafia

##Unvote

##Vote: Puns

I dont have a list of 5 at the moment but I am happy with puns being lynched today, and if not him, do wolf, lopen, lea in that order
---

also Lopen being a troll on purpose is annoying and clouds reads... at least so far

Claiming the bible Miller is right out of puns scum playbook

how are these two things remotely related?

I am highlighting risky plays you have done to open games as scum

This falls in line with your player meta
---

It's an example of how you have no fear as scum, so claiming Miller would be a real scooty puff jr move in comparison

do wolf

*giggles like a schoolkid*
---

Htaed is causing a fuckus

Also puns only listed me in his list but hasn't said why he thinks I'm scum

I'm here for a cup of coffee compared to the rest of the game and I still have 4 people I'm down to lynch today

Puns who has been here only wants to lynch me after I have just showed up?
---

That said, I think the GOT4 example is kinda worse.. easier to explain yet riskier to leave as a post.
---

Oof. Its still gonna be awhile until I catch up though. Like, not till after work. I haven't't seen any posts from Mzero yet beyond him saying he's catching up
---

I voted Cam as a countervote to him voting Lea. This was early topic 1 however, and wasn't a real vote but I felt no immediate need to change it. I did eventually get some legit suspicions due to him being weird about the Lea "caught you posting on the scumboard" slip, and thinking maybe the lone wolf thing may have had some viability as well, which was convenient as I didn't need to change to him then.

Not sure why someone who hasn't read the game is feeling a need to give a list of 5 though. That's really weird to me. Why do you think your opinion is valuable to town, currently, if you admit the game deserves a reread and you're largely using incomplete reads from 4 topics ago?
---

Lea stop making me laugh
---

Puns only having 1 read that is a newly replaced scare idk if he was being funny or serious
---

@red13n

Lynch puns. You want to kill Miller meta, kill the scum using it too
---

Now that you mention it, I don't know why Puns is going so hard on Scare

well I didn't feel like it would be very sporting to say it but for eaed reasons I believe his behavior is likely to indicate he was scum

then I just cold read your initial posts as Scum Scare

MZero11 posted...

Ooooh boy people are voting me for barely posting Day 1 again

Just like literally every game I've ever been in

I was unexpectedly busy yesterday so I haven't even started reading topic 3 yet so I guess I'll do that after work

MZero11 posted three hours ago...

I have finished work time to read topic 3

And most of topic 4!

Ok not to put too fine a point on this but it's getting pretty late in Japan by now

yeah I work pretty late

almost done with topic 3 yay

Lopen/Corrik/puns obvTown
Chris is probably town
eaed is probably scum

subject to change I still have over 500 posts to read

@benjamin3740 I found Mzero's only real post for you

I formed opinions then and they are just as valid then as they are now.
---

We never got any explanation of that post either...
And it was a recent one too!
---

My posts to start the game were most similar to my posts I started the game where reg came back

Take that as you will

Also not sporting to explain but sporting to vote and list me as your only lynch


---

Much like a hermit who has lived in complete isolation since 1957 would have equally valid opinions about today's society vs someone who is currently living in it.
---

Oh by the way

@Tom_Bombadil

You can use emoji now
---

Mzero's explanation was that he's always on the money with town, but not scum hunting

Wow, emoji!

And listen, I'm not saying you can't have valid opinions

I'm just wondering why you of all people would feel compelled to post a top 5 with your currently incomplete level of information. Do you think it helps town? What if the entire town read topic 1 and bits and pieces of the others-- would they have a more or less accurate view of the game?
