When I see crappy reasons for townreads I get suspicious. And so should you.
I understand the position; what I don't understand is why you didn't aggress harder off it.

Harder? What would that entail?

So much of this.
If it's a consolation, it's also an argument for my vote on you.
In what way "do you understand my position"?

I still need to catch up with the last few pages, don't think it will be for today.

I get why a bad trajectory on a townread, especially one that should be easy, is a scumtell.

I don't get why you didn't bite on it harder.

Also, that quote has no relation to the point that you're making. Mixing up facts!=bad trajectory.

huh?

How would knowing the identity of the person dancing with him help him derail the case?

Prodded. My thoughts on things people are talking about:
I don't think Who asking about the identity of the head is scummy, but the unvote/vote thing is definitely stupid.
The Bro/GG thing seems like town on town to me.
I am curious as to why there are still two people not voting (Tier, GG)?

Well I don't have a certain scumread atm, so that's why I'm not voting. I'd like to lynch desp, but I haven't been able to point out exactly why. I'm also on the fence about Who, whose explanations baffle me. Not as in I think they're super scummy, but as in I have no idea what he's saying.

Who, what do you mean with forced activity? And how was the unvote a reaction test for hermy?

Why do you believe you need a 'certain scumread' to vote? Do you not believe that voting people for pressure helps to get reactions that indicate whether players are town or scum? Not voting anyone is about as useful as the announced unvote reaction test.

I don't like to vote on command. I'll see who's explanation of his post and will then decide what to do.

Well, I think you shouldn't vote for someone you think is town, but I don't think a scumread is absolutely needed. You can vote for someone either because they are scum and you want them lynched, or because you don't know their alignment and hope that some pressure will help giving it away.

So I could vote for pressure, but I don't see the need for it at this particular moment.

Ok realizing I still didn't answer the question: yes I do believe pressure votes might help in figuring out alignments.

That's very presumptuous and I don't agree, but if you insist then I guess that's all I can say.
What do you think about des?

Not much has changed about desp. He's been staying on the sidelines since we've had our little debate. That means my point about deflecting and general gut still stands. I don't particularly like , I feel it's a tad like sheeping without actually saying he is sheeping. That could very well be desp's style of play though, does anyone know him well enough to judge about that?

:igmeou:

Someone asked for a reason why Who shouldn't be lynched. I was making it clear that I had no such reasons (and, thus, wouldn't object to lynching him).

What in any of that is sheeping?

If I don't feel I have anything to say and I force myself to say something, whatever I say/do will be totally pointless, like the desp-reaction test.

Hermy leapt on the desp-wagon after I voted desp, right as it was building up. I wanted to see if Hermy would change wagons as soon as it began to lose followers, which Hermy did.
Who said that?
Chamber. It's all a conspiracy.
Or is it?

I note with trepidation that you aren't putting nearly as much into this game as you can.

My wording is bad. Trying to say: you are agreeing with a who lynch without being tracable. It's not much of a tell, but I don't really understand the purpose of the post, I don't think Trine wanted everyone to answer 'no, I don't object', without putting in further reasoning.

@Who thanks for telling me that hermy thing, hadn't realized that before, omg that is scummy like how did I even not see that. XS, now I have someone to vote for, a replacement being pressured from the get-go is something I like.
