Can he not be a carefree and playful person in general? Or can he not simply be gleeful about having a scum role? I will agree that is seems genuine, but why is that alignment indictive?
Because he's Kingdom, and after having been wagoned and lynched so many times for the same thing, he doesn't learn.In post 150, gameplay506 wrote:

srs, how am I supposed to take you serisously when you start out the post by saying "LYNCH SCUM!" I don't know what conclusion you should have come to, but since you appeared to be focused on me over anyone else for some reason, there is a greater chance that you would have come to one before moving on.
I state facts because they are relevant. As Morph said, I kind of went a bit crazy in terms of that in the Dark Age of the Law sign up thread before the site crashed and deleted those posts. The only reason why I didn't mention it in the sign-up thread this time was because of the pre-in list, and I probably shouldn't have even started this in the first place for the same reason. Looking back, I realize Oversoul is correct that I had stopped doing this for a while, I've just been thinking about this so much recently that I thought that I had done this exact same thing before even though it appears I haven't. Now I'm sorry, and I think I'm just going to stop talking about this for the rest of the game unless I absolutely need to, because it's not alignment indicative, and I'm sure that at least half the playerlist as well as the mod are incredibly angry at me right now.
Bert is generally energetic no matter what, but I really don't see anything meaningful in his play so far either. So far the only topics he's talked about has been his role and me. Trying to figure out unknown vote mechanics when the mod is continually screwing up the VC kind of makes things weird, and I'm not entirely sure about where his trajectory on me is coming from.Never be sorry for your little time.
It's not when you get there, it's always the climb.-

That's not what I said at all. My point was that scum have a hard time faking being carefree in the manner that Bert has shown, and having had some experience playing with Bert, it's easier for me to see that this is genuine and his town game.In post 153, Mirhawk wrote:

@Aces
Zed does not post a reason. Rather he alludes to having a reason without actually posting one. My reason was quite obviously an inquiry as to why you sounded so nervous.
Also, all of the explanations that you are referring to happen after I made my vote in the first place. I fail to see how they could have influenced my vote.
@Zak
What words have I put into your mouth? I'm pretty sure that I made a serious inquiry as to why you think scum bert would be incompetent enough as to not try and act like town bert.-

And my point was that there are certain things that are hard for scum to fake, and what Bert did was one of them. Having also played with Bert before, it was easier to see his reaction was genuine and not scum trying to look town. Your response was "And Bert wouldn't be cheerful when scum?", which is a small but noticeable change from what I actually said. You took a meta read and tried to change it into an emotional read in an attempt to undermine it.In post 160, Mirhawk wrote: @Zak

I wasn't saying it was a town tell for him to act like this, if anything my personal experience makes this not a town tell. You are more familiar with the meta on Kingdom so I'll wait.In post 147, morph the cat wrote:I was going to link you to some of his posts in the Dark Age of the Law sign up thread, but the posts I'm thinking about were tiger-chomped. I'll go back through some recent games later today.
At any rate, we consider it alignment neutral, not a town tell.-

My point is simple. If bert plays a cheerful game as town, then he likely also plays a cheerful game as scum.
Unless you're suggesting he changes his entire personality for every game he plays.-

In this game keeping some voting is useful because I allows us to give pressure while still able to stay safe.
I have played countless games with fools/jesters in here or other sites such as epic mafia so I am pretty certain of my ability in recognizing who is NOT a jester most of the time ( catching jester is difficult )Implosion: I see ZZZX wasredacted. For shame, people. For shame.

This is an ETL post that has not been approved by Belisarius. I am V/LA on the weekends, always and catching up today. From ISOs, here's what I've got (half done):
1.Bert: Ok so, ignoring the doublevoter claim, I really, really, really think this is town Bert. In Dark Age of the Law, he was kind of all over the place (I was one of his scum partners as part of the Drunken Lies hydra). I think the thing I like the most here is his attention on KA and the way he went about it. I got the impression that he was actually interested in figuring him out, and not just fucking with him.Town
2.Bulbazak: I don't think I'll ever NOT be paranoid about you, Bulba <3 You got really mad at me for your lynch in Chain of Command, and that really stuck with me. I'm troubled by it because I find myself townreading you out of guilt. You fucked me up good as far as reading you goes. That being said, I really looked hard for scumtells in your ISO. The biggest thing that stood out was that Bulbazak actually followed up on the answers to his inquiries of gameplay/Mirhawk and made conclusions from them. Honestly, he could totally do that as scum, but he seemed interested in the results and I dunno, I see that more for townBulb. He can be town for now, with a very healthy dose of paranoia that he may not be.Maybe town
3.gameplay506Don’t know this person. Given the join date, and general tone of the posts, I'm not sure I know what's up with this guy. Clearly new to the site/mafia. I can't tell if he's excited to be here or not, I can't tell if this is normal for him or not. Posts seem a bit awkward, but responses sound genuine. Oh, also seems like maybe English isn't his first language, so.. maybe a little trouble for me there as well. He hasn't really given much of his own opinions yet, at least not enough for me to make a determination. Definitely one we'll be focusing on for sorting.Null
4.KingdomAces: I saw KA explain his playstyle in Dark Age of the Law, but only when pressured based on it. The fact that it was unprompted here is a little worrisome to me, though for now, I'm mostly inclined to believe it's not alignment-indicative. Actually, there's one thing that really bothered me. It was really small, but really stood out - in post 83, he states that he hasn't rolled scum in a year and a half, and then says"But anyway..."as if to dismiss the train of thought completely. But why? This is going to need a deeper look and a chat with Beli. All in all - not the same KA from Dark Age of the Law.Maybe scum
5.Lying Scum (Belisarius+EspeciallytheLies): such scum omg even their name says so lynch it with fire naow
6.MafiaSSK: Er... can you just like, release a handbook on how to read you because... 2 game posts... (plus confirmation post for 3) egh. It's almost like you couldn't give a flying fuck about your games or your team. I'm cutting this rant short, as it's (mostly) irrelevant to this game. But yeah. wtf...Null
7.Mirhawk: Don't know this person. His defense of Bert in post 100 is really weird and out of left field, and I don't get it. He throws in the "well he could also be scum" almost as an afterthought just to even out the post and make it look like he doesn't know what's up. It definitely doesn't come across as natural. He's also arguing semantics which is a nice scum tell And Bulbazak is voting for him, after much townier posts than this guy has, and if Bulb is town I kind of want to sheep him. Will need to chat with Beli, but I want to vote here.Scum
ETL
p-edit: heeeey.... Let's chat before voting cuz I don't wanna vote ZZZX right now.Hydra of Belisarius, ETL, and a massive amount of bullshit.-

Scum slip <> valid ongoing game. Sorry to say but I can't discuss it more. This being a bastard modding isn't helping eh? Let's say for a sec that it was a scum slip. That would mean I am a jester and shouldn't be lynched.In post 170, snscompt1 wrote:I cleaaaaarly see that as a scum slip. Everyone should get back on that wagon.

thanks for slyly encouraging suspicion on me at the most basic level! I do admit that having ETL locked in on a townread on me already definitely makes me suspicious as these townreads on me lack some kind of clarity about my play which I think is 'unknown' so far.In post 164, Mirhawk wrote:If bert plays a cheerful game as town, then he likely also plays a cheerful game as scum.
I think most of us have exhausted our early KA-read. This dialogue happens sometimes and it doesn't mean KA should be let off the hook.In post 172, Lying Scum wrote:I'm mostly inclined to believe it's not alignment-indicative.
