She was very scummy and have reached L-1, and your reasoning her defense just sounded very opportunist and it appeared like you wanted to defend to earn the town cred.

Actually you did. You said that the slot was more likely to be scum BECAUSE it had been replaced multiple times. There's an unsaid train of thought that behind this that goes something like this:In post 1862, Antilles wrote:

1. Players tend to replace out of scum slots more than town slots.
2. Syryana's slot has been replaced twice.
Conclusion: Syryana is more likely to be scum.
Now before anyone jumps on this for being Circular Reasoning instead of CIC, we need to first consider how Antilles first reached this conclusion. More than likely his experiences with player replacement involve a disproportionate amount of those player slots being scum. So we end up with this:
1. A player slot was replaced out.
2. That player slot flipped town.
Conclusion: Player slots that replace out are likely to be scum.
This IS Correlation Implies Causation. You've only compounded it with additional replacements. The simple fact of the matter is that player replacement is alignment neutral, as the reasons for it can never be known, and more often than not, they are never game related.
Say again that you didn't say that, and I will call it out for the contradiction and blatant scumposting that it is.Bulbazak is so town that everytime someone votes him Mastin coughs blood.- Nachomamma8, Maniacal Street Mafia

Hey Bulbazak. You're going on full ignore because clearly you're a fucking moron.
"We need to first consider how Antilles first reached this conclusion" <-- You are clearly more interested in winning an argument than finding scum. Which means you're even more of an idiot than previously believed.
And whether or notyou thinkthe mental leap I made had anything to do with logical fallacies (and no, it did not), has no bearing on the fact that a) scum slots DO get more replacements -- I advise you to check yourself before you wreck yourself on this one buddy, and b) I know a lot more about mafia than you, I have played in countless more games than you, and my record as both town and scum blows yours out of the fucking water (yes, I checked your record out).
Therefore, you can suck a dick.

*cracks knuckles* Wall response time!
First off, HD makes a special point of mentioning repeatedly that I don't detail why my reads are what they are. I replaced in on the day of the deadline with I think something like 12 hours or less left and 60 pages to read. I'll do my best to highlight why my townreads are what they are, but I'm not going through 60 pages of crap again to justify reads on 15 players.
First off, my reads hadn't even evolved to scum/not scum at this point. My reads were more or less "this person gave me good vibes, that person gave me bad vibes, nobody else made an impression." I didn't like Otterhorse for pushing a policy lynch and they were vague about their reasons for the lynch list in #177. I don't like policy lynches except in very extreme circumstances and that's essentially what OH was pushing for the first 10 pages. Serra I liked because he was arguing against policy lynches and I mostly agreed with his early reads(except MsM, but I always think MsM is scum <3).In post 1827, Human Destroyer wrote:Lastly, Syryana him/herself.
I guess this isn't a terrible reads list based on when he made it? I don't understand Otter-scum or serra-town though, those seem kinda out of the blue.In post 1481, Syryana wrote:Page 11 break time!
Thoughts:
People I like: Titan, HD, AA9, serra
People I don't like: KBW, TUA, Bulbazak, Reek, Otterhorse
People that haven't made an impression one way or the other: Errbody else.
At this moment, probably would vote for TUA if I had to vote. Lunch time nao.
My early scumreads list was primarily gut-based. Bulba gave me a decently solid scumread early on with his self-vote, then his apparent rush to lynch BT and his fairly terrible reasons to vote Titan. His #245 in particular troubled me. I didn't like how he went from voting Titan to townreading them, calling Otterhorse scum for wanting a PL but only calling Reek null for the same, his stance on TUA felt really off (I had TUA as scum from really early, that in a sec). The whole damn thing just felt fake.
TUA got a gut-scumread from the first few posts they made and they simply got worse from there. #56 is patently awful. They declared Bulba "incredibly town" right after the self-vote exchange between him and BT, the AA scumread was garbage, the Otter scumread was okay until I read the "Forcing heads to claim has always been something I've despised" and I thought what the hell does that have to do with anything. Calling Titan seriously town after two pages of RVS was also shit. Reads are bad, reads are bad, explaining makes them looks worse, AA read is horrid, "I'm never scum" is so forced (#87), God make it stop it's terrible. Like, reading their ISO is just horrifying. In 60 pages of content, that read was one that never wavered.
Reek was scum because policy lynches. Like Otterhorse.
KBW was scummy because apparently in 10 pages of fairly dense content he had nothing to say. Not to mention his unexplained reads in #73.
Titan didn't enter the wild insane tailspin until DGB joined the game. I dunno when that happened right this second, but it was after page 21. Serra/Jennifer is null/town because I liked Serra for town, but I downgraded the slot after Jen replaced in. She had only made three posts by this point, so I didn't move her slot anywhere. MM's null because I can't read MM for shit, ever. I've been in probably a half-dozen games with her or a hydra of her and I've been pretty much wrong about her every time. OH got onto the nullscum list because they kept talking about policy lynches. However, my rampant dislike of policy lynches wasn't enough to bounce anyone off the already-full scum list since the five already on that list were pretty solid scumreads. KBW is there because I didn't know he was dead at that point; I didn't read ahead except the final page where I posted "Hai gaiz, 60 pages bbl". Rach was on the nullscum list because her "TAM always lurks lol" posts (#273, #274, #287) gave me bad vibes and she started advocating policy lynches in #287. However, much like OH she ended up in the nullscum pile because it wasn't enough to pop anybody off the scum list.In post 1827, Human Destroyer wrote:

No particular order (in terms of the order of names in each column) yet. I'll let you know if I fix it such that the order means something.
I forget what page it was where Titan started to scum. It was some page though. idk if Syr's gotten to that point yet.
Why the fuck is serra/Jennifer slot null-town? Why isn't MM town? Why is OH null-scum? Why is Bulbazak scum? (Sorry DGB, still disagree with you on that slot being scum.) Why is KBW even here? I don't remember Rach very well but what makes her null-scum?
Bulba stayed a scumread here because in the preceding 10 pages he didn't really do much of note other than townread TUA and go "hey let's lynch any of these several people(TAM, Antilles MO), go!", which combined with my scumread from his #245 really didn't go over well. Antilles made the list because he was lurking hardcore and the rare occasion when he did post the posts were on a level of awful until recently reserved for TUA. He'd lurk, ask questions, do little with the answers (it looked like he didn't even care to get answers), lurk some more, post unjustified reads and one-word answers. Then he townread TUA for no apparent reason.
The rest of the reads were more or less constant, which is to say I didn't see anything townie enough from them to swap with one of my null/scum reads.
Townreads are beginning to disappear for a good reason. BT was replaced by zdenek and just like I did with Serra/Jen I moved the slot to null-town until I could get a handle on the replacement. AA9 got moved to null/town because I realized I'd given her a pass because a few of my townreads had pointed her play matched her town-meta almost perfectly. It was around this point I realized how bad I was being w.r.t. her slot, so I moved her down to get a personal and hopefully more accurate read. Jen got put back in the townpile because I liked her posts about MO, TUA and KBW.In post 1827, Human Destroyer wrote:

Bulba got swapped with MO because his latest posts felt pretty genuine and MO became a much more solid scumread. I put MO in the null-scum category after their #395 because, well, #395 sucked. Seriously, 1 townread and 2 scumreads after 20 pages of content? Lol? Their defense later was also pretty awful, particularly once it descended into immaturity with #541 and #550. Their play after narrowly avoiding death also came off as "we're not dead, thank god, let's try to lynch anyone else" (#657, #658). #658 was a pretty transparent attempt to gain towncred by voting then unvoting KBW.
I'm not even going to bother discussing why DGB is in the scumpile. They've been dropping scumtells like the little girl at a wedding with a bushel basket of rosepetals.
None of the scumreads have done a damn thing to make me consider my read on them with the exception of Bulba, so what's your point? Bulba's interactions with MO were ultimately what convinced me to rethink my read on him. I really liked his analyses in his posts in the 800s to 900s range.In post 1827, Human Destroyer wrote:

there's another post but it has more unexplained reads so not worth looking at
You got your reads explanation. Bulb went to obv-town because I reconsidered my scumread on the slot and I've liked his posts from roughly Page 30 on. There were some points I disagreed with here and there, but as I'm tired I don't feel like running through all that for the things I disagree with him on right now.

Alrighty. I frankly don't care whether we lynch goof or TUA; they're both on my lyst of lynchables. I'm voting for TUA though, since I've had a gut scumread on that slot since the first few pages.

Still no reads explanation. Somehow Bulb went from obv-scum to obv-town.

I'll assume "xe" means "he". Honestly, MO is the weakest of my scumreads at this point. Their twilight post went a good ways towards getting me to reevaluate the slot. Not enough to get me to swap them out with one of the null/scums at this time, but enough to make me doubt my read on the slot. I'd rather see a DGB/Antilles lynch.In post 1827, Human Destroyer wrote:

@MO: You're on my scumreads list along with DGF, Antilles and UA. Considering the two available lynches were both your scumbuddies (UA and DGF), you bussing one of them doesn't earn you towncred with me. Your "twilight post" (such as it was) was the first thing you've said in quite a while I didn't outright hate. It's not enough to put you out of my scum category, but it's a step in the right direction.
I'd look here on a Syr scumflip.
How many potential partners do I have at this point? Four? I've lost count. You do realize there's only three scum left, right? You're getting pretty lazy with your analysis, HD. Pretty out of character for you.In post 1827, Human Destroyer wrote:

RBD, BB: Why do the two of you think Jen is scum?
Bulba: Who are your current scumreads? BB can answer this too (not counting Jen).
I'd also look at Jen as a potential Syr partner.
I was going to continue but I'm legitimately bored of this. Let's just wagon the slot.-

Yeah, no, I detect a flavor of"I thought my buddies were scum at first but then I was reading and I think they're town. I would rather lynch townies, they are in my scumpile."
Pretty much everyone had Bulbascum as town, right? But Syryana comes along, and does a retroactive distancing act. He finds Bulbascum scummy at a time when everyone found him townie. But later in the game, he became more townie.
I'd still way rather lynch Syryana's buddy Bulbascum, because I'm more certain of Bulbascum.Paraphrasing a role PM takes seconds, fabricating a good fakeclaim takes an eternity.
