yeah, gorny's town. i don't think there's a world where scum are the ones to make the move from a low-content town to walls of reads on every player. thanks for getting the game moving!
1) If being defensive is scummy, then why would scum "be defensive in an effort to look towny"?
2) Why do you think he is reading the posts?
1) I guess because in a game where you're playing scum and someone puts their vote on you, scum will naturally try and be defensive so that they convince people they're not scum. But when scum does it, it comes off as quite over-defensive as panic kicks in.
2) Noodle already answered this but it's a pretty weak justification imo. He complained about lack of game pace when he knows he can just as easily post to speed it up. Or in other words, he's quite hypocritical after complaining about game pace but chooses to lurk anyway. Relying on others to post.
I'm conflicted on whether to vote for Noodle or Acid. At this point I'm thinking Acid mostly because of the points have been made by Gorny. I just wanted to add my own reason, if you look in the quote, the way Acid is talking to Noodle in a very weird way makes me think he's trying to talk to his scum partner. I know it's early in the game and it's probably not a good idea to be making partners. But out of all of Acid's posts, this one definitely stands out. I also find it weird how we votes for Gorny but then goes on a weird ramble against Acid, it kinda looks like his way of saying "psst, Noodle, vote for this guy". Also convenient how Noodle left this bit out whilst quoting top. VOTE: Acidphoenix
1. Ok, but this isn't live mafia, you can wait a while to post. Everyone has a life. It's not weird to only post a couple times a day. So, you have time to purge those emotions, and post calmly and without "panic". So assume scum know this. And they will not be overly defensive. That's just my advice
2. This is a good analysis. Does that seam scummy to you? Just curious I haven't formed an opinion yet.

What points did Gary make that stood out to you?
What do you think acid is talking to his scum partner about?
I agree with the Gordy/acid thing, but maybe not on the messaging. Could be though.
In this game, there are 4 sides: North, South, East, and West.
This is a game of negotiation.
Each side should play to their win conditions.
Each side may, at any time, decide to ATTACK any other side.
Once attacked, a side may COUNTERATTACK (but is not required to).
The game ends when a win condition is fulfilled.
Here are you "roles" It's the honor system, so don't look at the spoilers for the roles other than your own. If more players want to join, they can join another player.
North - DarrenWoodWard
Spoiler:
You are aligned with the East.
You win if you are alive when any other side achieves their win condition.
South - Gorny
Spoiler:
You are aligned with the West.
You are one-way lovers with the North. (You die if the North dies).
You win if you are alive when any other side achieves their win condition.
East - Northsideegal
Spoiler:
You are aligned with the North.
You win when all threats to you are eliminated.
West - Aristophanes
Spoiler:
You are aligned with the South.
The West will automatically counterattack any other group that attacks it. This cannot be prevented.
You win when all threats to you are eliminated.
Have fun!
Wait, did this freak someone out? Who peaked and got scared?

It's not necessarily scummy what Noodle is doing, my dislike towards his playstyle is more based off how long he goes without posting. He could just be a town collecting reads which is appreciated, but I wish he would have told us rather than wait until provoked about it. What really makes me thing Noodle is scummy, is how he intentionally misquoted Acid, especially the part of the quote that seemed scummy to me.
Wait, I didn't complain about the game pace ; I observed it's different than what I'm used to. That's a big difference. Are you trying to throw me under the bus?

I really don't understand the post edit at all.
1) Mostly the ones where Acid was quick to defend himself ("please don't lynch me" or something like that)
2) Probably to vote for Gorny, because directly after she voted for Gorny is when I think she was trying to communicate to Noodle.
