Because I agree that it's best to not leave BMWS at L-1.

Let's switch to Riddleton before the deadline; we have enough support from both wagons.
Particularly pagingNewbie, Not_Mafia, Constantine, acryon, BMWS.

Can you explain what this means?
In post 854, acryon wrote:I was really hoping to get a Constantine lynch because he is my #1 by a good bit over Riddleton. Can we really not get a Constantine lynch going? Because I would much rather hear what Riddleton has to say tomorrow after we have a couple flips out of the way, and I'm skeptical of the traction existing at this point for it to get there.
In post 875, Mathdino wrote:Dammiiiiit. Riddleton's last post is convincing enough. I'm going to eat you for that post if you end up being scum, Riddleton.
UNVOTE: Riddleton
VOTE: Constantine
If Wisdom and wgeurts switch to Constantine we're at L-1. At which point it's going to be up to Victor, TTH, and Malakittens.

I have compelling reasons to think others are town. acryon's trajectory on BMWS is a bit weird with his interaction with me - although his confusion as to why I'm just not getting it points to it making sense to him - but his ISO just doesn't read scum. I'm not sure how to articulate it. I do think one of the people pushing Constantine is probably scum because he was just such an easy target.
In post 1928, borkjerfkin wrote:I think a common theme for him is that his read on people is somewhat overly commensurate with how much other people's cases make logical sense, which is something I kinda associate with scum who have no true gut reads because they're scum. Stuff like 830. There's a weird seam there between 'Riddleton's case on Vic sucks so I still think Vic is town' and 'Riddleton is scum for his [dubious] freudian scumslip' that just doesn't seem organic to me.
In post 1928, borkjerfkin wrote:Only thing I'm getting from people townreading Mathdino is 'lol effort'. I hate to burst your bubble, but effort posting isn't alignment indicative. You can write cases to make any point you want, as evidenced by the fact that all of the people he's pursued as such have flipped the wrong way.
No, that's not a scumtell. But it's also not a towntell - there is obvious potential for scum motivation to do what he's done this game: aggressively and exhaustively pursue town. It gets them lynched and gets him townread. I think he knows when to capitulate (note his absolute deference to me as soon as I became confirmed, and I don't just mean not suspecting me, I mean not ruffling my feathers at all) and when to fight for things.
In post 1928, borkjerfkin wrote:I don't get the "Newbie if you're scumreading BMWS for hopping on to X wagons you should also be scumreading me for it" angle because it's fucking weird to have come from town.
1) Town should realize that scum buddy/sheep/parrot/whatever town all the time
2) BMWS is tonally nothing like Mathdino this game (hell just look at the postcount) and you're not comparing apples to apples at all. Hell you bolded what the wagons were while glossing over the reasoning. You really want to argue that BMWS made the exact same arguments that you did for everything? No? Then your point is bad.
3) The whole 'write a better case on BMWS' (rather then 'you scum Newbie?') request after all that gives him an easy out to just hop on BMWS later if whatever Newbie writes passes the smell test forthe other townies(or at least he can sell it to them later so they buy it). This point is important - it's less about whether or not Newbie is scum for making the argument and more about making sure that his sheeping that BMWS isn't going to turn town against him tomorrow, because that is ultimately the difference between a town win and scum win tomorrow if he's scum. His whole thing about 'not lynching BMWS right then plays against scum-Mathdino's wincon' is fucking bollocks.

Mathdino's push on Wgeurts for 'mason fishing' (as if that were easily discernable between looking for scumbuddy interactions, especially considering it was pretty obvious Wgeurts generally had no idea what the fuck he was doing regardless of alignment) on D1 was fucking awful
In post 1947, Mathdino wrote:What threw me for a loop was that wgeurts entered the game with a Slayer Gambit and generally showed himself capable of pretending he had no idea what the fuck he was doing (and has shown himself to be capable of that in other games) so I figured he was mason-fishing using the mask of a newbtown.
