Time for a fun PBPA! Hooray!
At the end of this post, I will vote for whichever looked most scummy to me.
0: Mod's opening post. Not scummy
1: Saint Kerrigan confirms. Not scummy.
2: kunkstar7 confirms in spanglish. Not scummy.
3: startransmission confirms. Not scummy.
4: Sleepless Assassin confirms without saying confirm. Not scummy
5: malpascp confirms. Not scummy.
6: I confirm. Not scummy.
7: startransmission votes for ksun81, because he hadn't confirmed yet. Not truly a good reason to vote someone, but it was a random vote I presume. Not scummy.
8: SaintKerrigan does his random voting thing. Not technically scummy, although the post has an unnatural bit a vivacity about it. Neutral.
9: My random vote on startransmission. Not scummy.
10: Mod post!
11: mipes replacement post. Not scummy.
12: Mod post!
13: mipe's random vote. Not scummy.
14: SaintKerrigan random vote Part 2. Would be slightly scummy if not for the fact that mipe had just replaced in.
15: kunkstar random vote. Not scummy.
16: SaintKerrigan's question post. An obvious attempt to somehow start some conversation. Pro-town.
17: malpascp's grammatically incorrect and concise response to SaintKerrigan's question. It doesn't really fulfill the question's purpose. Slightly scummy.
18: kunkstar addresses SaintKerrigan's questions and asks him a question. Not scummy.
19: SaintKerrigan answers kunkstar question, then asks kunkstar about his lie that startransmission's avatar was going to bother them, and also asks malpascp about his incomplete answer to his question. Not scummy.
20: Kunkstar answers SaintKerrigan's previous post. The fact that he didn't have a reason for a random vote, and because scum almost always bus each other with random votes, makes me feel like he doesn't have any ties to anyone. Slightly town.
21: SaintKerrigan reasks kunkstar why he lied about his reason, even after kunkstar answered it. I'm not exactly sure where to put this post.
22: kunkstar answers the question again, slightly different. Neutral.
23: SaintKerrigan once again asks why? I almost feel like he is pressuring kunkstar at this point to see if he can cause him to slip. Not scummy.
24: kunkstar answers SaintKerrigan's previous post, almost seeming slightly not serious. Not scummy, though.
As of Page 1, I'm leaning towards voting malpascp.
25: SaintKerrigan apologizes to kunkstar for his question barrage. It definitely seems like he was pressuring now. Not scummy.
26: My answer to SaintKerrigan's question. And state that it has prevented me from voting him.
27: SaintKerrigan votes me for liking cookies, a third random vote. And asks why I am not voting him.
28: startransmission answers SaintKerrigan's post. (Still, when I look at the avatar, I think it's someone from Star Trek.) Not scummy.
29: Sleepless Assassin answers Saint Kerrigan's question and votes malpascp. Not scummy.
30: kunkstar applauds SaintKerrigan for jumpstarting the game, which I also agree he gave a nice attempt but it didn't work very well. Asks SaintKerrigan about lying in a game. Not scummy.
31: mipe's post where he answered ALL of SaintKerrigan's questions. He even changed the names in his quote to "mipe." Note this post, as it will be acknowledged later.
32: SaintKerrigan asks mipe as to why he answered every question. A good question, indeed.
33: SaintKerrigan answers kunkstar's post about lying.
34: startransmission votes mipe for answer other people's questions. I find this post not completely serious; still, it didn't look joke-y enough to be OK. Slightly scummy.
35: Mod post!
36: I ask for links to the game where cookies were scummy and rescind my statement for not voting SaintKerrigan. If I was unclear, I thought the questions held a breadcrumb but I don't believe they did.
37: SaintKerrigan has a V/LA post. (It's very odd, if you look at when it was posted.)
38: Sleepless Assassin asks startransmission why answering other peoples' questions is a scumtell. Good question.
39: mipe says he read the questions wrong. But remember Post 31? Mipe changed the names to all say "mipe". Therefore, if he had truly misread the questions, he couldn't have changed those names. A severe lie, in my opinion, has been committed by mipe in this post. Scummy.
40: kunkstar asks mipe what part of the questions he read wrong.
41: startransmission says that here, answering questions wasn't a scumtell, but it could be in instances of scumcoaching. Makes sense to me. But why did he vote if he knew it wasn't truly a scumtell?
42: SaintKerrigan agrees with kunkstar that he doesn't get where mipe read the questions wrong.
43: Sleepless Assassin asks why startransmission voted mipe if it wasn't answering other people's questions, he also votes him for stretching to vote. Pro-town.
44: mipe votes startransmission for the same reasons Sleepless Assassin did, although in a bit more jumbled fashion. Almost looks like following.
45: SaintKerrigan points out that startransmission is at L-1 and no one should lynch him yet. That was a good announcement to make.
46: SaintKerrigan posts his link to the cookies are scummy game.
47: Sleepless Assassin notes that mipe hopped ont he wagon pretty fast (I agree), but he still believes startranmission is scummy. He does unvote to get rid of L-1.
48: Mod post!
49: mipe thought this was 7-player, which clearly indicates that he didn't read the first post. Very incorrect thing to do, and it still doesn't defend his quick vote. Scummy.
End of Page 2: mipe is definitely the one I'd be voting for now, but startransmission is still a bit scummy. malpascp has become somewhat lurky at this point, and I'm kind of surprised Sleepless Assassin wasn't more inquisitive towards mipe.
50: My defense against cookies, and now I realize I made a nasty error that makes it sound like I'm agreeing that cookies are scummy. Bleh.
51: kunkstar points out my error, and asks why I feel cookies are different. I don't think I replied, but I can tell you that the cookies are in the town's favor this game, and they are CHOCOLATEY.
52: Oh wait, I did answer. They change too.
53: startransmission takes his opinion on cookies, then says that the mipe vote was random (which would be his second random vote).
54: malpascp makes a jumbled post but does manage half a point. mipe does appear to be basing what he's doing off of the posting of Sleepless Assassin. They are building quite the wonky connection.
55: SaintKerrigan asks me what I think about startransmission and mipe, which I know for a fact that I answer.
56: In fact, I answer it in the post after. (I'm talented! Yah!)
57: mipe makes a good point about why he didn't unvote.
58: Sleepless Assassin believes mipes excuse. That's definitely fishy, especially since I've been glimpsing a connection between them. Also, he called an "excuse" instead of "reasoning", which "excuse" connotates as "something made up to get out of something". It sounds like he knew mipe made it up, but decided to believe it anyway.
59: kunkstar unvotes and is inquisitve towards Sleepless Assassin's believing of mipe's excuse.
60: Mod post, and at this point KittyMo replaces SaintKerrigan.
61: startransmission asks for Sleepless Assassin's reasoning for wishing to vote him.
62: KittyMo's introductory post.
63: KittyMo's catchup post, which is kind of a jumble. I agree with her reads of myself (huh?
), kunkstar, and malpascp, but her other views, especially mipe and startransmission, are very general considering what has happened.
64: mipe says hello to KittyMo.
65: KittyMo asks a good question. As in, what mipe thinks of malpascp's post. Poro-town.
66: KittyMo attacks the thread with GIFs. But she makes a good point: there is already a lot of information in the thread that needs to be looked at, like I'm doing. Horray for me!
67: Sleepless Assassin explains things. There really isn't anything trivial here except the fact that he believes mipe.
68: kunkstar replies to KittyMo, and he did indicate that he wanted to unvote so he didn't have a random vote placed instead.
69: I try to treat KittyMo like she's a celebrity? I don't know.
70: KittyMo answers questions. And doesn't recognize me
71: Mod post!
72: KittyMo votes malpascp without reason. What's with all the sudden malpascp voting?
73: Sleepless Assassin clarifies.
74: kunkstar asks KittyMo for reasoning on her malpascp vote.
End of Page 3: Still leaning toward a mipe vote, but Sleepless Assassin has usurped malpascp on my list.
75: startransmission makes a good point. If Sleepless Assassin truly believes he is scum, then putting him at L-1 shouldn't be a problem.
76: KittyMo explains her vote. Which, the reasoning is what I thought it would be.
77: kunkstar acknowledges KittyMo's reasoning for not explaining her vote, which I guess I'm OK with.
78: mipe clarifies why he thought there were 9 players (C9 always confuses me too.) But he still hsould've read the first post.
79: startransmission acknowledges the first post point I've already brought up.
80: Mod ppost!
81: Sleepless Assassin votes startransmission, I'm assuming it's on previous reasoning, and doesn't answer startransmissions questions
82: startransmission asks why Sleepless Assassin didn't answer his question.
83: startransmission notes a lack of activity.
84: Mod post!
85: Sleepless assassin answers startransmission's question. Which is making sense too.
End of Page 4:
Vote: mipe
Questions:
mipe: why did you like about misreading SaintKerrigan's questions?
startransmission: Please tell us again, why you voted mipe.
Sleepless Assassin: what makes mipe so believable? And why are you so uncomfortable to put someone at L-1 if you find them scummy?
KittyMo: Could you possibly give more detailed reads of mipe and startransmission? And what are your reasons for voting malpascp?
malpascp: not a question, but an order: post more. But then again, I guess I should post more too.
