I don't have a lot of time, but
VOTE: Viva
What's with so much vote-switching?
I agreed with most of Masquerade's post - more 'Shinobi is uncomfortable playing scum' than 'trying to avoid being suspected' though.In post 83, Shinobi wrote:If you don't want to switch, please explain why.

Okay I really don't like Viva right now. I already explained a few of the reasons but there are even more now: calling Shinobi's page one play a slip, which is a great way to push a bad lynch without much evidence; thinking about NK's and LYLO on day 1; and moving his vote around without good reasons.-

I didn't call it a slip, I called it a horrendous slip up. Two very different things!
I'm thinking about NKs and LyLo because I still think that Shinobi is scum but he's actively scumhunting so he can be an asset fighting the other team for now until we lynch him or he gets crosskilled later. And if he's town, well, saves a mislynch, but I doubt that at this point.
Same reason for my vote transitions; I've been going back and forth on whether or not I consider Shinobi a priority lynch and then Masq->Cobalt was brought about by how I feel about Ranger's read lists; they basically put all the players who've been put into the crossfire as likely to flip scum.
For what it's worth, I don't like you much either.-

I was fine with something_smart making a mistake thinking viva called it a slip that is a human error. It is a bit of a stretch to call it a wagon attempt but I am ok with that since I understand the logic. The inability to admit he made a mistake discredits the town intentions in his viva scum claim and not accepting an error is incredibly scummy-

So a slip is something that reveals your alignment as scum.
A slip-upis where you make a mistake.
To reveal that you are scum is obviously a mistake. Therefore, a slip is a slip-up.
Scum want to conceal their alignments. Therefore, a slip-up made by scum is alignment-revealing, therefore it is a slip.
I'm sorry if I am misunderstanding you here.
Regardless of semantics, the one goal all alignments share is to avoid being lynched. One of the biggest mistakes any player can make (and certainly the biggest that applies to both alignments) is to allow themself to be lynched.
So your argument is, he did something that made him easier to lynch, therefore we should lynch him?-

Where do you think you get off asking people what their 'other townreads' are and criticizing RVS votes on the first page?
Riddle me this batman.
Okay I'm sorry I misunderstood this then. I thought Viva was pushing Shinobi based on his "colossal slip up".-

Beeboy/Masq scumteam? Cool!In post 98, beeboy wrote:In post 97, Shinobi wrote:It sounds like masquerade's giant post follows the sort of thing you're talking about in yet you haven't commented on it. Why?
I don't know if you mean you on masquerade or masquerade on you.
For you on masquerade, I wouldn't call 2 votes and an opinion tunneling and making it easy on scum to fit in.
For masquerade on you, I don't see people voting you a problem the statement that you are trying to hard to look town is bad in the sense that there is no evidence to back that up which doesn't indicate scum just a lazy claim unless Masq can't follow up with evidence to support that claim. There is a difference between stealing ideas to fit in and having your own opinion on someone currently being pressured.
VOTE: Beeboy
Viva, will you quit it with the vote jumping!
I already don't care where it lands because it has no weight.
You know how if you say a word too many times it starts to lose meaning? Yeah, that's what's happening with your vote.
I had a feeling Chevy Cobalt was Ford Ranger.
Unexplained lists =/= scum in this case.
Slip = Scum revealing info accidentally/revealing themselves as scum.In post 107, Viva La Gloria wrote:A slip up is a screw up or a blunder or a misplay; I think Shinobi misplayed on page 1 because he felt pressured as scum to try to look like he was scumhunting hard.
A slip is revealing some sort of secret that confirms alignment.
Shinobi did the former, not the latter.
Slip-up = any general mistake, misfooting, or bad play.
@Something Smart, not a hard concept.
It feeld like you're discrediting Viva right now. Why is that?
A slip is a slip-up, but a slip-up isn't a slip.
Yeah, I don't like Beeboy at all.
@Beeboy,
Is bullheadedness exclusively a scum trait?
Can town not be wrong yet insist they are right, or misunderstand a point and argue it fruitlessly?Half meme, Half real, All Aristophanes ;)- JingleAri has appeared way too competent for me to even pretend to know what they're thinking

Why don't you like me?
It also is a scum trait because they are paranoid they will be wagoned if they make a false claim or contradict themselves so they would try to disprove it. Town is less concerned about looking town so they would rather move on with the game and admit to a simple mistake. Also something_smart is exaggerating a lot of statements and has tried to twist what I have said.-

So scum typically don't just buckle and agree with the other party to blend in, but rather stick by their incorrect assumption, making them more noticed and targeted?In post 119, beeboy wrote:Why don't you like me?

All I'm saying is that it's not so black and white and I have seen both occur many times.
What makes Something Smart sticking to his guns scummy in this instance?Half meme, Half real, All Aristophanes ;)- JingleAri has appeared way too competent for me to even pretend to know what they're thinking

In post 81, Something_Smart wrote:If Shinobi was trying to avoid being suspected, why would he enter in a provocative way rather than RVSing like normal?
It's not the way he entered but how he dealt with the questions that he got about it. To me it seems more like he wanted to look useful with his questions, rather than reaction testing. Trying to look town by getting us out ofo RVS asap. When he got called out on that his responses were awkward imo.
In post 95, Aristophanes wrote:Plus, saying you look like you're trying to blend in?
Did I say that?
In post 79, Masquerade wrote:Shinobi gives me the feeling that he's trying to avoid being suspected. Which he's not doing a very good job at.
No, not at all.

Yeah that's what I'm trying to say.
I'm liking Beeboy for town and having a growing scumlean on Aristo.-

In post 122, Aristophanes wrote:What makes Something Smart sticking to his guns scummy in this instance?
To start off the original push was incredibly forced saying the Vivo was trying to force a lynch using a buzz words. This is incredibly dramatic claim imo but it is understandable that someone would believe this.
Then Vivo explained his reasoning but something_smart refused to believe it which I already explained why I believed that was incredibly scummy behavior. Another thing is whether or not they disagree on what a slip-up is if Vivo think that a slip-up is incredibly different from a slip something_smart should have realized it wasn't a scum intent but rather a misunderstanding to he kept pushing.
(This occurred after I made the claim)
He then proceeded to try and twist my argument at the end of post 112 and in post 114. Which further discredits the town incentive in his original claim because he has been consistently exaggerating or twisting claims.
