And this is likely in a five player game?

Because Mirth was still gone and I didn't want to hammer?
Vote: forbiddanlight
Knee-jerk?
Mirth wrote:SSF: why do you think Caboose's first posts merited a lynch and why don't you think so now?
Because the purest scumtells come before everyone has had a chance to settle into the game and react to the play of everyone else.
I don't think so now because his play through the game has, over time, led me to believe that he is sincerely trying to work out who the scum are.
Of course, there's also the possibility that I was right to think the lynch was warranted, that Caboose is scum, and that I've fallen into the very pitfall I was trying to avoid but hey, irony is good, right?
forbiddanlight wrote:bullcrap. You kinda stopped providing ANY content after no one was bothering you
Care to point out any posts in particular that were content-less? Or is "SCUM (Lack of content)" what gets branded onto anyone who is posting less than the everyone else.

I'm

exactly sure. I think the likelihood of you being scum is

but is now
moderate
. The only person in this game who seems to be sure is you but that doesn't mean anything because you told us you'd act like you were sure even if you weren't.

That, and other similar malarkey.

Please take your words out of my mouth thank you very much.
At no point did I imply that my posting rate was anything to do being scared of saying something wrong, but I do like how you've connected two completely unrelated issues.

You.

2 voters + 1 expressing an intent to vote = 3 people agreed on who needs to die.
Let me finish up with a short defence of the main point against me:
I'm not entirely sure why people seem to think that my posting rate makes me scummy because Flea-scum would have nothing to gain from it. Slipping under the radar is out because it's a four player game and it's inherently obvious that everyone would notice (which they did), dodging questions is out because I've answered the questions that've been thrown my way (if somewhat awkwardly and disjointedly) and not providing new talking points is out because I've pointed out plenty of things that you lot missed. I'm failing to see a valid incentive for me to be acting the way I'm acting as scum.
HOLY SHIT OW.
