Give me a fucking break, Plotinus. It's pretty obvious I hadn't read a single post besides seeing the big L-1 text when I replaced in, and that I hadn't read anything besides the last page or two when I began my catch-up. Not to mention with the argument you're making regarding my VT claim, there's literally nothing I could have done that you wouldn't call scummy. I claim Jailkeeper, I claim Tracker, I claim VT - whichever of those I had done even if I was scum, the way you're talking about it it's pretty clear you're either scum or shitty town bending a point in any direction you can to support your tunnel.
I was referring to your claim in
341, that you made over a full day after replacing in. Your very first post said that you were town so you must have known on some level that whether you were town was in suspicion, even though you seemed to think Reubus wasn't you, still you knew enough to claim that you were town. But almost a full day goes by and then you claim vanilla townie in bold print. That was more than enough time to read up on things or see if your predecessor had claimed anything.
I was not saying that it would be scummy no matter what you claimed. I said it was scummy that you were trying to get town points for choosing to claim VT instead of a power role. Like assume for a moment that wyvernite is a vanilla townie, which he could be, if wyvernite claimed vanilla townie would he then start saying "and I could have claimed something else but I didn't so that makes me more towny"? No. It wasn't the claim itself it was the language around it.
If I was scum I would have seen how doomed my slot was.
Sure, but you've been coming off like a person who likes a challenge, an experienced player who created an alt to have some fun (which is totally fine and I'm not asking who you're an alt of because that's your own business). I think you've played this slot extremely well, and if you'd started the game in the slot maybe we wouldn't be lynching you today because the slips you've made have been small enough that they could have passed under the radar.
Also, the idea that everyone ISOs their slot when they replace in is extremely fallacious.
I can't prove whether you read or not, but over 24 hours passed between your first post and your claim so it's not impossible that you could have seen saad's vanilla townie claim which happened pretty early on, page 3 or 4.
