Open 486: Game Over

@Syry, my sarcasm is hard to detect in text form. I'm just sheeping. (because I have nothing better to do without a thorough reread, which I don't have time for.)

P-edit: Really I'm just rubbish d1...

Salamence at least made a token comment regarding SD's overreaction, but we're really suffering from the Easter malaise going on here.

TLDR:
FoS: SDT and all those people that keep lurking/not providing reasons to vote.

This is the crux of it I think. Not sure if it's getting through (it's always dangerous to assume) but I don't like that votes are being put on for little to know reason. The more people do it, the more it gets accepted and play scum to hide behind. It also hinders reads. How can anyone accept, counter or refute your reads?

I'm not liking SDT's play, his reasons or his WIFOM.

So the vote itself, since there was and had been no reason, is shit, yes?

Do you always just make assumptions for people in your games? Do you find it effective scum-hunting to just ignore people when they do it? What people don't you ignore when you do it?

Just a terrible OTT reaction to what was it, one vote at the time? Perhaps he would be more cautious if he were scum, not sure. But there was definitely no reason to get so uptight over it.

Rank opportunism to join an established wagon.

How do you know an SDT wagon wont take off? I'm happy to put my vote there.

Ew.

Consider this a blatant attempt to lurk off the wagon.

What motivation would a scum have for white knighting a townie? Let's see, towncred, towncred, towncred. Oh, and towncred. You white knight me with a weak ass case, I get lynched anyways, I flip town, you get points for being right about me being town. Whiskers puts it pretty well in #223. Questions?

I'm happy with SDT or Johnny. They're both scum.

Well that's just typical really isn't it? Take my vote away from SDT because despite me leaving it there since the start no wagon has formed and the next thing you know he has 2 votes.

Well I've had my vote on him since the beginning and nobody had jumped on, only now you see a chance to get another wagon rolling you're quite keen to do so.

As for the "opportunism" on joining a wagon, I think it's better my vote is somewhere it can make a difference rather than hiding away on someone it's not going to bother, like it was. Are you going to react like this every time someone votes for you btw? I was surprised you didn't vote for me in retaliation.

I think both SD and SDT are plenty scummy so not bothered which we lynch today.

From the last game I played with him, Syryana is really good under pressure and he's a really great talker.

And I voted for you, Syry, in RVS as a joke, but kept it on due to Whiskers' case. But I might change my vote to SafetyDance.

What's the town motivation in doing this, though?

To not get lynched. That's both a town and a scum motivation.

So then, does that mean you're both town and scum?

Let me put it this way,

Vote: SivDT

People want to lynch you. You, in turn, might want to step up your game.

This is the second time someone has referred to "the Whiskers case". I'd love to actually find out what that case explicitly is one of these days.

i think my vote on safetydance was no longer needed. i don't have a town read on him, but i'm listening to the meta info brought up on him. jmo is a solid target right now.

as for my town read on you, i thought your post #85 appeared town-motivated, but i'm less sure of it now looking back.

zachattack · Post Post #249 (ISO) » Thu Apr 04, 2013 9:46 am

unvote

Have to catch up here. Didn't actually want to lynch safety, just wanted to troll for a reaction with a no reason vote. Give me an hour.
