^ What? It's a lie that scum will not admit to being scum after being hammered?? It's not a lie, and anyone who had played for any period of time on this site will know that.

Not a lie, but you're trying too hard to not look like scum.

I agree, ST seems very defensive and he seems very jumpy right now.. Friend I'll need some convincing as his scum partner.

I don't know how to respond to that. Other than lurking (which could be better referred to as RL as I've not actually lurked) I've done nothing scummy, and I feel no pressure whatsoever. I don't need to not look like scum. DP has made an assumption, and I'm explaining why it's not a good assumption to make.

Never mind, this phase isn't one to start making accusations, I'm just seeing what kind of a reaction I can get from you now. With that said, tomorrow is a new day, and we will see where it takes us.

Well. I was really, really, confident that NS would flip scum. His townflip is surprising, but fortunately very revealing. It's guaranteed that either one or both scum was on the NS wagon.

In particular, DavidParker's play at the end of the day looks awful suspicious to me. I'm going to reread the end of the day and see what information I can gather.

The way things played out makes me think that you might be a scum member.

Actually, I'm thinking a DP/ST scumteam. Their interaction in twilight very much reminds me of the dynamic between me and Sotty when we were scumbuddies. I bussed her, and she acted like my accusations were worthless without actually bothering to refute them. Not ready to throw down a vote just yet, however.

As stated, the ending to the day definitely made me believe that ST is possible scum.

Vote: Startransmission


Will come back with more analysis later today when I have more time.

Gandalf and Aspen are at the top of my scumlist. There really is no third place for me right now. In fact,

Vote: Aspen


Gandalf, the situation you just described sounds nothing like the way yesterday ended. Where do you find the comparisons?

Wasn't trying to be harsh there.

My misgivings about Gandalf? His concern over being at L-2, but putting NS at L-2 after the wagon was solid. His explaining of that vote was too self conscience as well. His derision of DP's actions. His not voting for me despite believing that I am scum. He plays safely and keeps his options open. Read him in ISO, I actually recommend everyone do that.

All that said however, my vote lies elsewhere.

I'm sorry, I haven't had enough time for a long case yet but I will tomorrow morning.

DP, what in particular about the end of the day made you feel ST was scum?

ST, I didn't think you were scum until after the day was OVER, because you didn't make any posts. I realize that that wasn't your fault, but how could I have voted for you? And I'll pull up the posts that gave me that vibe.

He tried to put the blame on me as soon as I hammer'd (almost as if expecting the town flip), by pointing out how I dealt with pressure, I'm not denying my contradiction, but after his lurking, and his reaction to the town flip (assuming it will be one after NS said that) i'm looking at ST tomorrow. Still leaning town on Friend for his consistency, but we'll see.

Acting like he has no point.....

Defensive of what? Jumpy how?
Acting like you don't know what he's talking about. Granted, I'm more suspicious of ST. But this is possible scum-scum interaction to refer to if ST ends up scum.

Gandalf, obviously your playstyle isn't that scummy, because you didn't get lynched in the last game.

This is all very confusing to me, missing all this time. I did not expect all this activity...I've gone over the game once and I'm going to go over it again because I haven't picked up anything that was missed by everyone else (Deja vu from last game). Honestly, this feels like being replaced in...I'll post again after I reread through, and tell you what I find. (Hopefully something new this time!)

Sorry to keep you all hanging, but I'd rather take some more time and make meaningful posts rather than just post repeats of everyone else. That's a big mistake I made in my last game.

@Gandalf, your post 271 doesn't explain a whole lot about why you're suspicious of me. You quote an exchange that I had at the end of D1 with DP. In fact, that's all you provide. Do you feel that my reaction to the lynch of NS (which I supported) was scummy? How so? I don't see a single thing that I can respond to as far as DP and I being scumbuddies, and I certainly don't see where I'm "acting like I don't know what he's talking about". What, in your own words, was he talking about? I'd like for only you to answer this for the time being, though I suppose DP has to make his case as well.
