To be completely honest with you, when I realized that Shireen was Yume, I really wanted the slot to die and started looking for reasons to scumread her. However, I did think it was a good elimination (heh) because of Yume's erratic nature, making herself a liability for town in both cases (she being town or scum is indistinctly bad), and also because the other alternatives were Fire and Rubi who I think they're both town.

I shouldn't be voting dave now, but I don't have a strong read on the other Nobles right now, other than I have this gut feeling that Auro is fucking with me

Much less content than his town games, and when he tried putting out content it all looked forced and fake.

Explore your gut feeling, and try explaining why you get the feeling I'm effing with you?

Much less content != no content in a game he repped in. You're losing the point. Also he hasn't tried to put out content at all, so how can we judge if it looks forced and fake?

You weren't scumreading gobble when you voted him Auro, you clearly weren't.

I had a thought when I saw the three groups and your post, while I get that you don't truly believe in a town Bloc, was exactly opposite mine. I was thinking it makes sense that theres scum in all three and since I know myself to be town there are better odds of finding scum in my own group, making them the least likely for me to want to work with. That's probably not accurate but that's what my first instinct was and I was gonna vote based on that to start out until I saw your post.

Pink Ball
, this is a dreadful ISO. I've tl;dr'd it above. Whatever content he has produced has not an iota of scumhunting, just empty questions which serve nothing.

My point exactly is that in his town games, he has meaningful content
every time
, while in his scum games there's little content - and whatever little of it looks fake, too. He doesn't care, or try, when he's scum. I was scum partners with him in a game which recently finished, which I quoted.

You're again missing the point. I'm not saying his ISO is good. I'm not even saying his ISO is mediocre at best. I'm saying that you're pushing a player with no ISO whatsoever; you're saying that that's a scumtrait of gobble, I'm saying it's a player who repped in recently and was sick recently too.

Should I post dave's ISO and judge him? That wouldn't be fair, would it?

I'm also scumreading the 22 posts in his ISO for emptiness. When he's town you can see him scumhunt well before that.

I think Gobs has had his chance. If he was too sick to play I don't think he'd have replaced in to begin with. I don't think Dave has had a chance yet. I didn't think you did either a bit after you repped in, and I did also say you deserved a chance at that point, so I do know what's fair and what isn't :P

I don't think your opinion on what's fair or not is what should decide who I should be voting.

Because, as you can see, I'm not asking you to stop voting gobble or pushing him if you think time's up for him. What I'm doing here is answering the question "why are you not voting gobble", so I don't know what you're trying to accomplish by defending your stance. I'm not asking you to justify your vote, did you feel like I was asking that?

I'm attacking your stance justifying Gobbles' play as not-scummy. We have a difference in stances and hence that's a good discussion point.

And that's exactly why I feel you're fucking with me. Feels like you've only attacked my stances since I got stances in this game which to me looks like you're shutting me down. "I'm waiting for your takes Pink Ball!! :D" doesn't add up with how you've approached me. You aren't working with me, you're just antagonizing me when I'm not even talking to you.

We have a lot of disagreement on multiple stances (which did deserve major focus, for example Shireen earlier and Gobbles now), Pink Ball.
Part of my process in working with you is focusing on and resolving them. Going about this aggressively is not antagonization :P

How would you rather I approached this?

Please do note that it is not my intent to "shut you down" or a specific targeting of you. If you want me to approach this in a way which seems less antagonistic, tell me.

really don't like this.
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Seeking replacement for Firebringer.
It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!

Should I go bold and eliminate the need for a replacement?
I wanted opinions on FB for a reason. He seemed overly active compared to a couple town games this year, and I lightly scumread him as a result.
It would be so much easier if there were flips.
