^ then what's the point of RVS then?
Even if it's a random vote, the point of RVS is to gain information from why the random votes were made. I.e. if you give a vote without information, then it's a reason to talk about you.
That being said, I actually think 72 is scummier, but lets wait for Italiano

1. Saying my post is non genuine or forced IS DISCREDITING. It's like you're saying in posting for the sake of being active instead of actually hunting
2. the point of RVS is to see where the votes go and to create a starting point. Voting for the mod is a classic non committal vote common and it's something that deprives us of any info. Yes they could do that because scum might not want be linked to anything. The point is, distilling it to "this is shallow" is discrediting the entire premise of it and just flat out paints me as scummy for having legitimate concerns. Also saying let's leave RVS doesn't really do much except signify that it's a serious vote. Would you have batted an eye if I said "serious vote" instead
3. Not voting at all isn't scummy if the player wasn't active. RVS voting the mod is scummier regardless because some people may not know of RVS. In fact, I've seen newbie games where town doesn't wanna participate in it

This is a newbie, and with newbie games come the misconception of "scum want to push easy mislynches". The last newbie game I played, I won as scum not by pushing for mislynches but because I intentionally stayed under the radar. I hard defended the day 1 mislynch, knowing full well that it will flip town. The rest of the mislynches I joined but I never drove the wagon, I found flimsy reasons to do it. So Italiano, while I don't think it automatically means you're scummy, it's odd that you're painting it as such because I am pushing for your mislynch
I mean I agree, being reactionary and painting a target on your back isn't a good way to play scum. That doesn't necessarily mean that you won't do it.
In fact that's weird that you're scum reading people just because they're voting you. If either of us were scum, why did we single you out as the mislynch of the day?

@ydrasse
I think I answered it in my post 50? Where scum would want to discredit other players? In an attempt to drive townies to that player or potentially buddy up to ther players the other is attacking.
I called it as discrediting because e moving past RVS is being painted as "shallow" and "looking townie"
In post 77, Ydrasse wrote:
pii: who do you think is scum, if you think italiano's post is nai? (65)
Probably DoctorPepper. Don't like how they specifically wanted us to "leave RVS." Also don't like how they claim to have "solved the game" in post 25, and post 50 just seems pretty defensive in response to 72offsuit's post.
This is a bad post.
But I tend to forget that newbies kind of overanalyze everything.
Reacting to me claiming I solved the game is weird because that has no alignment indication
UNVOTE: doctorpepper
I don't think there is such a thing as a wasted vote when things can be so easily retracted. Let me rephrase that, I don't think there is anything such as a wasted vote this early in the game. No one is exempt until confirmed town.
VOTE: doctorpepper
What's the purpose of this unvote and re-vote?
This is kind of a weird post. A lot of games in non newbie queues do these fake "unvote, oop I'm just kidding" thing
In post 389, DoctorPepper wrote:I actually have no defense for my play today aside from just being at a bad time with real life.
Give me the weekend I'll have some time to read through
I guess we'll just have to take your word for it. Don't think it'll stop us voting for you though. I do find it interesting that TTJT is saying the same thing as you and you both took V/LA. I'm not questioning your rl issues. Sorry man I really hope you are able to work out your issues. But it's just interesting and even pii asked to be replaced. Sera never posted once. What is this game doing to people?
As irresponsible as this sounds, I'm not really super concerned with my lynch if town wants to make that mistake

I'm currently re reading the game but I have this huge inkling *shocker* that my wagon is scum motivated. And a lot of flimsy reasons are being thrown around.
I really dislike post 446. For one, that's a complete misrep of my meta statement of lying low and defending the wagon. I dislike meta but to prove my point, in Newbie 2000 (also modded by Micc, you sly dog) I actively DEFENDED the biggest wagon and made sure to stay away from it. As in my posting was really there to drive home the point that I believed their claims and I made it so adamant that it was a mistake lynching them.
Here? I legitimately asked a question. A question of why this player is scum because if you haven't noticed, I haven't been reading the game and I wanted to know why TTJT was the wagon.
Not a fan of 404 and it feels like its cherry picking.
Both town and scum games you mentioned have 1 huge difference from this game. I was active in both of those games.
I.e. my behavior today is not indicative of my actual meta because a lot of my posting here was prompted by getting prodded and not being able to read the game properly.
Plus, the scum DP game feels so cherry picked because the points of "asking more questions" was indicative of my interest in the game state, rather than my alignment
In post 416, TheThirteenthJT wrote:He came back into the game with very weak posts, that is undeniable, but I dont necessary see it as scummy. I see it almost as a bit of disinterest.
why do you assume the disinterest isn't indicative? I think most players, as town, have interest in lynching correctly and influencing the thread in the direction they want. I think scum are more likely not to want to rock the boat or do too much, and make safe/bland posts on entry. 72offsuit also made a meta argument that DoctorPepper is makes weaker posts as scum.
I feel like this is a huge misrep because I actually care more about my scum games than town games.

In post 419, GuiltyLion wrote:I actually also thought those looked like softs from DoctorPepper.
VOTE: Guilty Lion
You guys are reading way too much into this.
No, I am not softing a PR. The posts were not my way of saying "you're wasting a vote because I am a Town PR".
So either a) you're over reacting to your standard "I'm not scum" posts or b) you're looking for a flimsy reason to jump to my wagon.
Now, There are 3 votes on my wagon. I think GL is scum here because while I don't believe 72's case, I could see town mistaking my meta (sidenote: this is why I dislike meta, you took the context out of it. Same with ISOs, games are supposed to be inline with the context of the post). Ydrasse I'll have to reevaluate
But GL's posting really seems like someone who noticed that his wagon wasn't gaining tractsne is forming will all the momentum before deadline.

In post 402, Ydrasse wrote:dp’s reply to me isn’t very indicative of anything. i think that a player that hasn’t kept up/been as engaged with a game as either alignment would say that.
why does it make you uneasy that he’s saying he’s not a good vote @italiano?
Actually think you're town because of this. So that's one townie on my wagon. Care to listen as to why I shouldn't be your vote?
I initially didn't like his line of questioning from my RVS because they're flimsy
I initially didn't like you and Walter taking on low hanging fruit (no content slots). Voted Walter because at least you gave a (flimsy, but still existent) reason for why you jumped to that wagon.
Recent posting though?
72 is looking for flimsy reasons to push this wagon and you tried to justify that jump.

I'd like to hear the why behind DP's thought processes rather than just seeing little pop-ups of "this is weird."
TBH I was generally disinterested so this game is a crap shoot. Town DP though is more unsure and less prone to tunneling because I really dislike playing as town.
Thought process in general is "is the post in question made with an intention to hunt scum or to seem active"
The things I look for in scum are if the posts just there to blend in the background or if the post has malicious intentions (i.em I hate misrepping and I dislike discrediting). I believe townies are more than likely to make bad pushes, but sometimes bad pushes are in good faith.
For my own posting? Admittedly this game I wanted people to summarize it for me because I was lazy and not motivated. Do I see that as a reason to scum read me? No. But I can see how it can easily be used to feign scum reads on me
In post 456, WaltertheDunce10 wrote:I have also been busy and am not prone to long posts in general.
I think dp or jt is a scum bit I think doctorpepper is scummier rn.
Quite frankly, this whole my lynch will not affect town rubs me the wrong way.
Either he is a town pr or he is scum.
Mini is still neutral/slightscum to me. VOTE: DoctorPepper
Once more wagon hopping.
Do you think scum would be this brazen about jumping the wagon?
I think the scum play in my wagon would go as:
1. Actively making flimsy excuses to vote
2. Be the hammer
I actually don't have a lot of scum motivation for this

I must note that in all likelihood, scum wouldn't be both on my wagon. I mean the optimal play of how I would do it is I would have talked to this in my Private Topic with my scum buddy and say one of us stays off the wagon.

Check their votes on me:
This whole point of my why is TTJT scummy post is completely overblown. I asked it because I wasn't reading and I was wondering why you were scum read because I generally liked your posting.
It's being misconstrued as my meta by comparing it to Newbie 2000.
Plus, he threw this whole discredit on me voting Walter when I claimed my wagon was scummy when it was kinda clear I was still re reading the game at that point.
It's in bad faith. It's not scum hunting, it's purposefully painting someone as scum

I don't think Walter is playing in bad faith. Hence why I think Ydrasse is also town. I actually believe Ydrasse's attempt to scum hunt
I do what Walter does as town. As scum, I'd manufacture a reason to vote for someone or blatantly defend the scummy townie.
But I wouldn't make an empty vote to hop on a wagon.
Anyway, catch-up status is at page 10 but so far I am good lynching 72 or GL for just the past few pages. I think they haven't been given a lot of suspicion because they seem to give that aura of leading town but the intentions are honestly in bad faith. So far those are the only comfortable lynches for me
In my absolutely do not lynch pile, I'll have Ydrasse and IVD.
1. Where is the AtE?
2. Why is AtE a bad thing? That's such an old "hurr durr AtE is bad mmmmKAY" mentality
3. Why are you allowed to use meta but not me?

Scum you agenda is that the TTJT lynch was losing steam and you went for me. I was LHF, the inactive player that had no reads. I was easy to make a case on because I said "hey guys, why is TTJT scum?"
So when I show up and actually gave a crap about the game and convinced 1 person I was town, another not to vote for me until 24 hours (probably to avoid no lynch) and another to get off my wagon, you're out here justifying that

See here's the thing. If you actually believed your little meta case on me, then you wouldn't resort to shit rebuttals like "Oh why u vote Walter if u say ur wagon is scummy" or "WoW mUcH aTe"
