Anti-town how? Inactivity? I've been busy irl, and I'm still learning the game.

@Salami - what do you make of Elements right now?
Also, updated thoughts on your TTTT vote?
TTTT is still my biggest SR and favored lynch but I acknowledge that the rest of town disagrees with me and it will probably not happen.
Elements? Mostly the same as before I disagree with your #459 I don't think he was looking for an excuse to leave the skitter wagon that looked like a genuine attempt at scumhunting to me.
I guess we'll see whether or not he leaves his vote there I suppose. I don't really see how, by voting bbmolla, he would expect to get a different reaction from a player who comes across the way BB does than the one he did?
Do you have any other reasons for favouring a TTTT lynch? I read your iso and you've only flagged his vote on DR and his vote/non-explanation on you as reasons.
Those are the main reasons yes, also his interactions with MJL at the beginning of the game give me pocketing vibes. I admit it's not a cast iron case but I am following my gut here on who I think may be scum. I think he has been very fortunate in that he has drifted through the game without anyone paying much attention to him, I think I am the only player to have voted him.

I understand but what do you think of the game so far? Do you still want to lynch MJL or what?

My man! Keep this attitude up. Mafia needs more players working to keep games friendly and fun.

Interesting
In post 44, TTTT wrote:"(it's ok to say that, right?)" is my favorite part
I see what you're saying. I kind of believe he's new to mafia. But if he's asking this question that means he had to consider that it wasn't okay to say that. So why did he say it?
Does newb!scum come out the gates with a hard dumbtell like this? Does he assume it will get him universally townread, or does he think the scum reads will be worth getting town reads from the people that do believe it?
It's certainly audacious but not impossible coming from newb scum. I think it's fair to say that most newb scum don't try this gambit.
and then there is the possibility that he's newb scum posting genuinely in the sense that he doesn't know that you're not supposed to claim like that, but newb scum is probably more likely to read the thread before posting, I guess. so probably not that.
