No

Why? Why would you move your vote over to plot if you get another vote but stay where you are at if you do not? Give me a town motivation for this that makes sense. O far the only player that looks to be scum is you…
Where is flubber at in the VC? His wagon is moving awfully fast...

“as I reason?”
I do not understand what you are exactly asking. I assume it is about my vote.
I did not vote in my first one because I thought more people had voted flubber and wanted to know where he was before placing my vote. I realized after I posted that the VC was right there and there was only one vote added after. I was mistaken when I thought he had a fast developing wagon – there just seems to be some interest there.-

Your post seemed like the wagon on him was fast, but you never explained what you found scummy or why a concern for a fast wagon.
I clearly explained my reasoning. I gave 2 reasons – the opportunistic move to get a wagon and stating he would move his vote if he got another scum read without giving any motivation to go with it.
As far as fast wagons, they tend to be town because no one is actively resisting them and they can get a lynch before we are ready for one. There is always one "anti-town" townie that is willing to hammer an L-1 for the scum team without reason. That screws town over pretty hard.-

No, I actually do not.
I find that lurking happens with both alignments just as much. The idea that lurkers are usually scum trying to hide IMHO is false. Town does it just as often because the game stalls or others already said what there is to be said. My experience is limited on this game (around 10 games played now) though. All in all I think the quality of the posts made in between are the real indicators. Are they filled with gibberish or inconsistent or are they genuine?-

I don't see how the second part is scummy.
Bored people can vote bela with me to see if she does something or continue crap posting.
I don’t see a town motivation there and when I asked for one it was ignored. Possibly because he does not have one….-

Speaking of inactives, Spartan is V/LA until tomorrow I think, and hasn't been able to check in. He's got coursework deadlines.
VOTE: ConManMick
Are you RL friends with him? If not this could be a slip because there's no where that he's stated he's V/LA. So this is information that no one has.
What do you think of con’s excuse? Does it change your suspicions at all?
Also, the OP clearly states that the scum team had communication pre game start. This could be a newbie mistake.
Also, @Spartan, can we get a confirmation on this previous relationship that you two have.-

UNVOTE:
FA, I do wanna ask you about this. Do you have any other reads? I get your later point about town wagons with no resistance, but I don't necessarily see this as a reason to town-read anyone else on that wagon.
I had to meta flub for my last game. He's ALWAYS weird about rv(q)s. Is there any other reason to think he's scum?
@ric, farside had made the fake comment after my...second(?!) post. Maybe it was the smilies. I didn't really react to it because...wut? Then my non-reaction was an issue. If you wanted something contrived...
What are you talking about? Nothing you said is connected to my post.
I didn’t town read anyone for a fast wagon- those ON the wagon are much more likely to be scum, not town. The one that is wagoned might be town. However, I realized I was incorrect about flubs wagon being fast – there was more talk than actual action (not a very town thing either really).
Further, I did not suspect him because he is being weird about rvs – that is normal though rather silly. I gave 2 reasons and none of them have anything to do with rvs.
He also totally ignored my questions. Also scummy in my book.-

This is what I was thinking.
VOTE: Lane
I'm liking this vote because I don't like the one post I quoted above. I'm not getting many scum feels from players, but right now Lane and ConMan are probably my scum reads.
I got a slight town lean on Bella (it's gut) and Flubber. I'm also liking RiCastle for maybe town.
I am confused . You quote me when I posted something against con and Spartan saying you agree here yet you voted for lane.
I am missing why you think lane is the likely scum and are avoiding con?-

You are essentially putting the idea out there to lynch a slot that has posted exactly zero posts. That is a shitty idea in general. This is not even a case of laying low - the slot has not even confirmed yet.-

Let's say that Conman really slipped. That would imply that they scum together, right? So why would questioning spartan about this have yielded anything but an easy lie?
Can you summarize your reason for keeping your vote on Flubber?
Because it would require Spartan to actually link himself with con or distance. I think it would have provided more information if we ended up with a flip from either. More information and/or commitment from players can be beneficial in the long term even if the information is not necessarily that useful today.
I would not have necessarily trusted the answer but there is no such thing as an ‘easy’ lie. The more lies a scum must tell, the more likely we are to catch them in one.
I am keeping my vote on flubber right now because he is getting scummier and scummier as this game goes on.
He has actively avoided answering my questions and his last statement to me was nothing but bullshit and purposeful misconstruing what I stated.
Then he stated I was making things up. Scummy.-

Not only can you but you should. However, if they are the same thoughts you have been giving then don’t bother – BBT was spot on when he called you out for not taking a stance on anyone. You continue this trend in every post you make.
You are not posting thoughts that are useful when you state this person could be scum or they could be town. That is pretty well established already – tell us who you think is scum and WHY.
I can go with this lynch today I think. I will vote later though if it looks as though this is the lynch for today.
I would prefer RMM though.
321 was REALLY bad and that has been beaten to death.

In post 359, RationalMadman wrote:But then again tryhards can be VERY useful town members so I really am struggling here.
Takes a stance and then runs from it in the very next post. More nothing.
And tops it off with:
Really! No issue with players joining wagons on scummy players but at least have a better reason than because everyone else is doing It at the time.
This runs from a stance much more than Papi does, contributes less and has posted 2 things that make me really think he is scum – runs to a PL and jumps on the first available wagon that might get a lynch without bothering to add any thoughts or agree with anything. Just states yay for bandwagons. Wth…
I still read flubber as slightly scummy but he is not as scummy as these 2. I don’t really agree with the bella scum read, she is null for me. This is mostly based on the last game I played with town bella – the style just seems similar IMHO. Will look harder at bella when I have more time to.-

Would you bother to read the op and the setup.
That is plain lazy as hell flubber – there is no excuse to not go back and read the EXPLICIT setup for this game. There are 3 doc’s and a backup but the doc powers are very weak.
It is worth noting that lynching a doc does not remove the doc from the field as the backup is there.-

Why? The reactions from both those players are quite standard here at this site when someone wants to lynch a claimed doc.
I think that the fact the doc roles are very weak in this game and the backup makes lynching a doc similar to lynching a VT does not really click in immediately as doc is usually a very good PR.-

Agreed only because he is not playing so any digging there is not possible. I don’t have a good read on reverend at this time. He has posted a lot but not sure if he is town. I really don’t have any strong town reads and I have already posted my scum reads.-

607 - Oh, I was just talking about the scum motivation behind Ric defending everyone over their RVS votes in his attack against Flubber. I'm not very interested in discussing this further right now though.
614 - FA, I feel this should be pretty obvious. It directs scum. If everyone starts giving opinions on what a flip might mean for them, scum have more information to work with when deciding who to kill.
There is no use speculating on a flip. Let's wait until we have solid information.
You had me as 'solidly town' and one post changed that? Couldn't have been that solid.
Yes it could have been. A player can go from solid town to solid scum pretty quickly if they post something really scummy.
Your explanation is acceptable though. I can accept that reasoning. You overtly claiming that you are not reading is, yet again, another scummy play IMHO as well. Why are you not keeping up and actively trying to lynch those you see as scum all of the sudden? You seemed more than willing to play earlier.-

He just made himself NK bait and if PB is a doc, BBT dies N1, we are down two docs and only one back up.

No, I don’t think you are and I agree. This does not read as an obvious slip to me but rather as a town player challenging someone that he thinks is scum and is trying to manipulate his vote.

I was not ready to talk about you as a town read at that moment because of something that another player posted and some interactions with you. Then things took a different turn and my thoughts on you changed making that entire line of reasoning moot.

Yeah, that means anyone could be SK. But I lean toward theory over WIFOM. The SK needs to try to eliminate mafia and that takes precedence over adding WIFOM on purpose. Best to pursue the "someone scumreading Flubber" angle first.
I disagree with the logic on the SK mostly because you are essentially stating that you think I am the SK (I am the only one that was repeatedly trying to get flubber lynched and presented my case over and over) and I can assure you that I am not the SK.
I also do not follow how your logic would separate an SK from a townie - both want to kill scum and therefore they would damn near identical in pursuing that goal. It is the one reason that SK's can be hard to find, they have a very town mindset in scum hunting.-

This smacks of someone who is concerned about the SK after flubber died.
He was also soft defending papi.
Yeah dave is a good shot for 3rd scum.
The second reasoning is hard to ignore. I think you might be onto something with Dave attempting to chase the SK when we need to be hitting the third scum.
I don’t understand the first one though – you state he is linking town to scum IF flubber dies. He did this AFTER flubber flipped if I am not mistaken so does that not make your reasoning moot? Everyone is trying to link flubber and papi to the last scum (except the last scum).
@dave – care to answer the second charge?-

Flubber being scum is interesting. I think that means that the SK knows how to read people well, not that they took any stance on Flubber. I still think Reverend is scummy, and knowing that Papi and Flubber flipped scum isn't a dealbreaker.
FA_Q2, I don't think they implied that you were the SK based off of the Flubber kill. But are you disagreeing only because you think it implicates you, or is the logic actually flawed?
I already addressed the fact that the logic was very flawed in that it is not distinguishable from town as town has the same exact motivation in nailing scum as the SK does. I have pointed this out already – why are you ignoring that?
And, more importantly, why do you not inherently realize that town has similar motivations in upending scum as the SK? Almost as though you are not coming from a town mindset…-

I think it's likely that Bella, Plot, and FA are also town. Will not be voting for these people toDay.
That leaves Wanderer, RMM, Wrong, Senator and Dave.
I think Dave is town. I've only skimmed his posts but I liked what I read. Papi also voted for Dave; this brought a couple of things to my attention. Firstly, I doubt that Papi would vote for his scum buddy when he is danger of being lynched. Secondly, why didn't Papi join the RMM wagon? That was a viable counter wagon that he could have joined and tried to push to stop his own lynch. The question is, were town really doing so well that we had two major wagons on scum? It might be worth lynching RMM toDay to sort this out.
There have been posts from Wrong that I'm not particularly fond of but I mostly just forget he is in the game. Could very well be scum. I also believe he spent most of the day voting Lane, who I believe to be town, until he jumped onto the RMM wagon. Was he helping to push the CW to Papi?
I think the most informative lynch for toDay is RMM or Wrong and I feel both have a good chance of hitting scum (obviously I'm wrong on one of them, unless one is SK).
Thoughts?
Why do you think that RMM would be the most informative? What do you think we will gain with his lynch?-

Can you summarize why you are so sure that wong is scum?
I don't see a strong argument for his lynch at this point. I am leaning much more to Dave right now. I think that the point in his theory crafting for the SK is pretty solid. He also does not seem interested in actually hunting and is using crap logic to 'find' the SK.

Are you playing dumb or actually dumb?
Do you really not see the logic behind my thinking? Half claims protect the tracker. We don't need to know wrong song is doc, PR was sufficient to stop the wagon.
Pushing for half claims is one thing but you REALLY did not need to outline what the current claims tell scum. You realize that the scum might not be as well versed or thought about what the PR claims might mean?
They might have missed the extra information altogether. That is until you had to point it out with clarity...
Can we please stop feeding scum info and then explaining exactly why such is useful.-

In post 1160, BlueBloodedToffee wrote:OK. This is getting fucking stupid.
We have 3 claimed PR's. I would bet at least one of them is lying, there is no way we have run up 3 PR's consecutively.
RMM, Wrong and Dave have all claimed a PR.
Time to lynch one of Farside/Senator.
VOTE: Farside
You are sure one is lying but want to lynch outside the lying group?
We have 3 claimed PR's.
There are 6VT and 5PR's out there.
As more than half of our PR's are claimed would it not simply be better to get the last 2 to claim and see if there is an actual liar in the group? Should we wait then the PR pool will shrink and a mass claim will become useless. When there was one claim then I can understand not mass claiming but as we have already claimed 3 we have essentially already done a mass claim. (soft claims as you have been talking about btw)
If 2pr's are nailed tonight then there will be 3 left and a mass claim will essentially mean the death of them. Pointless at any other time.-

I have to go back over farside for that. I really don't see the case on him. Care to expand?-

Also, FA, have a town-read.
What if a PR had a result?
Come again? I do not understand the last two sentences at all.
Do I have a town read or are you reading me as town?
What do you mean what if a PR had a result?-

What result can we hope for? Tracker tagged someone to a kill? Could have been a doc. Tracker is better off holding back his info so he can catch a liar, imo. But it's down to the tracker to decide that for himself.
Another result of mass claim. If the tracked claims VT but tracker got a result - we have a scum/SK.
Other way around is useful to an extent as well but less so as the backup can be a PR without a result.-

Oh, p-edit: sorry, FA: I am giving you a town read (reading you as town) and I assume TheRev's post has answered the second.
Eh, have you also got any strong town-reads?
p-edit again: wut, bbt??
Also, ppp-edit, I'm a girl Rev!
I would say that BBT and Rev are both 'not scum.'
SK is another animal altogether that I am not ready to get into at this moment.-

I think I know where one of the PR's lie.
If we're massclaiming, I would like to propose who I think it is and why. If I'm right, I'm confirmed town because that's obviously where I would have killed if I were scum.
I would think that you should wait till after the claim to reveal that though - wouldn't you?
I don't know what you have though so I could be incorrect.
Pedit: how about you comment on the proposal Con.-

preview-edit:
[quote=The Reverend
It's like he's trying to dodge the scum NK as opposed lynch.
wait, what? If BBT were really confirmed town (instead of just saying he is again and again) wouldn't that more likely draw the NK to him? If we all agree with BBT that BBT is conftown (which I agree is weird becauseI don't remember masons in this setup), won't BBT be more likely to be night killed, not less?[/quote]
Does order matter?-

In post 1401, BlueBloodedToffee wrote:OK, now. Here is a scenario for you;
Scum claimed PR (let's say RMM).
Tracker or back up claimed VT (Let's say FA)
FA comes back to thread tomorrow and says 'I claim PR'.
We now have 6 PRs.
Do you see how this changes the dynamic of the game?
That is why this entire idea about a PR claiming VT in a mass claim is idiotic IMHO.
Should have never even been suggested considering the point of mass claiming. I am going to assume that no one actually fell for that idea (hopefully). That means my vote is in the wrong place.
UNVOTE:
Now, far's idea is rather townish but he is also the only one that voted like scum. I really cant infer anything else from the vote counts. Not sure who to feed rope now.-

In post 1476, Bellaphant wrote:Okay, so I asked us not to lynch anyone before I full claimed?
I'm gonna come out with it: I'm the tracker. I got a result on The Reverend. He was tracked to Ricastle last night.
I've kept quiet because I was wondering if he'd claim Doc. But, I now know he is a) scum and b) was SK hunting last night.
Evidence on top:
He was on and off the Papi wagon and his read on him was off (Sen has picked up on this)
662 Calls Ric the SK
919 Is very clever, but he basically just admitted it.
He CAN'T be the doc: 1425
He pushed a bunch of 'scum-reads' who were town. He got lucky/unlucky in the fact most of them claimed PR. He's now pushing BBT, who scum-read him from the start. His day 2 posting looks really good - hell, it made me think I was wrong and he WAS a doc who protected the wrong element and was being clever about it - but it's easy to push scum-reads as scum and a lot of it has been theory.
He's scum and he killed Ric last night.
VOTE: The Reverend
Protect me tonight.
Well that decides that.
Have we reached a lynch yet?
VOTE: the reverend-

You should take seriously that I was looking for scum off the Papi wagon because I didn't believe scum double bussed.
You should take seriously my cases for both Farside and FA scum.
You should take seriously that I am town. I thought this would be evident enough in my play, obviously I was wrong.
I guess this dies not matter anymore but your 'case' on me was based entirely on me moving off a wagon that was not going to happen. Seems like a rather lame case.
Of course we now know I cannot be scum as we are about to lynch all of them and all bets are off with the SK - the SK looks very much like town.-

Not only can you but you should. However, if they are the same thoughts you have been giving then don’t bother – BBT was spot on when he called you out for not taking a stance on anyone. You continue this trend in every post you make.
You are not posting thoughts that are useful when you state this person could be scum or they could be town. That is pretty well established already – tell us who you think is scum and WHY.
I can go with this lynch today I think. I will vote later though if it looks as though this is the lynch for today.
I would prefer RMM though.
321 was REALLY bad and that has been beaten to death.

Takes a stance and then runs from it in the very next post. More nothing.
And tops it off with:
Really! No issue with players joining wagons on scummy players but at least have a better reason than because everyone else is doing It at the time.
This runs from a stance much more than Papi does, contributes less and has posted 2 things that make me really think he is scum – runs to a PL and jumps on the first available wagon that might get a lynch without bothering to add any thoughts or agree with anything. Just states yay for bandwagons. Wth…
I still read flubber as slightly scummy but he is not as scummy as these 2. I don’t really agree with the bella scum read, she is null for me. This is mostly based on the last game I played with town bella – the style just seems similar IMHO. Will look harder at bella when I have more time to.
This is an interesting post from FA. Where did your suspicion of Flubber go?
You read Flubber as slightly scummy - yet you started D2 sounding pretty convinced that you thought Flubber was scum;
In post 896, FA_Q2 wrote:
Really because I think that flubber was BLATANTLY scum. Much more than even papi IMHO.
Yes, one mafia and one sk.
There are a few things not adding up here. Your latest stated read on Flubber was 'slightly scummy', this attempt to make your read stronger appear stronger than what it was is a push for town cred I believe.
You then state you will join the lynch (Papi's lynch) if it's the lynch for the Day. But, you would much prefer to lynch RMM instead. Then you joined the RMM wagon. Can you explain your thought process here? Why did RMM suddenly become so scummy? You had posted after 3 of his posts that you quoted you had a problem with, why did you not address the issue sooner?
I think you saw RMM as a good opportunity to stop bussing and push a potential counter-wagon to Papi.
VOTE: FA
It was still there. I was the only one pushing flubber and that wagon gained absolutely no traction whatsoever so I moved on.
What did you expect? I addressed the issue when I had to go looking for other scum suspects and found RMM rather scummy.-
