Townread on Salamence for pushing a quicklynch. I don't see scum making themselves so vulnerable to criticism like this.
Townlean on SilverWolf for post 130 because I feel similarly about Nosferatu.
VOTE: Nosferatu
Almost all of his posts are about how bad the wagon on redFF is but he isn't trying to make anything out of it. I especially dislike his response to Shinobi in
post 97 where he doesn't even offer an alternative to the wagon that he hates so much. He is unwilling to contribute a new perspective, so why discredit the wagon in the first place? Seems like an attempt to keep the game from moving forward.-

Yes scum would do that to seem town. I know I personally make it my mission as scum to be off the Day 1 mislynch. That's why you caught my eye. I don't have a problem with you disliking the wagon but the way you went about it seemed like you were more concerned with distancing yourself from the potential mislynch than trying to find scum on it.
Why don't you normally vote? And why do you think Shinobi is scum?-

@Wake @Creede
This was what my post 537 was about:
In post 533, Creede73 wrote:Although TSO is looking kinda suspicious, I really don't think he should be lynched over other people (like nos). For now I'll unvote, but I'm not too sure about voting for TSO.
It was a half joke but it still reads as bad to me. Like how does your hesitation in voting for TSO translate to you unvoting Nosferatu? You even state that you think Nos is a better lynch. It doesn't feel right that you'd unvote Nos immediately after making that post.-

VOTE: Annadog40
Jeez how many scum are in this game how is no one voting her right now?
Just ISO her. She has zero actual contribution and her posts consist almost entirely of asking questions that don't matter and covering her ass on the "Wolfie" fiasco. Clearly she's reading because she has responded to allegations against HER but can't be bothered to post anything of substance about the game.
She was on the Nos wagon which makes me think he's town now but we'll see how he plays going forward.-

So you are reading Nos based on the fact that I am on their wagon? I'm still on the Nos wagon so the past tense is misleading.
Sorry my tense is wrong? "Misleading" is a bit of a stretch. Good try though, pinpointing the smallest inaccuracy and not responding to my valid argument. I figured I'd give an update on how I felt about Nos since I was voting for him previously.

There you go
Oh so you apparently have the opinion that their posting is worse than yours but you only highlight this in an attempt to discredit an argument against you? Why do you only share this thought when you're in the hot seat? Anyway it's no longer arguable. You're a lot scummier.

In post 697, Annadog40 wrote:Does that mean whoever I scum read, you'll town read for now?
Is my vote on Nos the sole reason you are seeing them as town? If it isn't then what other reasons do you see Nos as town?
Nope. I think you are both scummy individually. I think you are scummier, and I don't see you two being scum together. I guess the possibility of multiple scum factions existing is something I didn't consider so it was a bit hasty of me.
In post 697, Annadog40 wrote:I think you should respond to this yourself. Why were you so hard on Nosferatu? The majority of your posts before you shifted to me were about Nos being scummy.
You should know full well why I was hard on Nosferatu. You stole everything I said about him!
But yeah your case on Nos doesn't do it for me. Half of it is summarizing his actions without offering insight on them, and the other half is piggybacking off of what other people already said. This wouldn't be an issue on its own but coupled with your previous scummy behavior it makes me confident in my vote.-

In post 696, Annadog40 wrote:I read your ISO and I noticed that you haven't made a reads list or typed your top three scum reads, why do you expect me to when you haven't?
This is fair. You (Annadog40) and Nosferatu are two that I feel I've said my piece on already. The third would probably be Kop. I agree with redFF about Kop, and I also thought that his entry post was really weird. Why explain the cons of a quicklynch when obviously that isn't going to be what happens today? That's his only post until three hours later. Like why go into a 500 post game with that as your first post? It's just a universal truth that "seems" towny but isn't helpful.
I finally checked a past completed town game of Grayfox and he was a lot more vocal. But he also made a lot of naked votes, so it seems to boil down to "he is less active" which is a null tell to me. Anything else I'm missing? I definitely feel we have better targets.
Anyway, Silverwolf, ika, and Skybird welcome to my townlist!!!
Gonna read some more ISO's and post my thoughts on others later.-

First of all, thievery was not my main issue. I even said that it's not scummy on it's own; I think it's only natural for townies to be convinced by well presented cases. But not having original contribution COMBINED with her other scummy behaviors is my problem.
And your vote for Kop is what made me look back at him and notice how bad his entrance post was, as I have outlined. So no I didn't just parrot your case nice try!!!
What do you think of Annadog?-

SW please don't leave you're like one of my only townreads itg (especially now that you claimed). Also why did you claim?
Annadog needs to be lynched by the way. The fact that barely anyone is addressing her makes me think that her teammates are trying to ignore her and push a different wagon (aka Grayfox).
Nos is getting townier imo.
I think Wake is scum but that's for another post when I have more time.-

Wake's early posting was fine but as the game progressed there are just a lot of things I like to call "words without substance" statements that are starting to become more and more present in his posts. Some examples:
In post 442, Wake1 wrote:I'm inclined to agree with this, assuming the person joining the vote isn't giving a reason, or a weak or very similar one. HOWEVER, if two players are voting someone for nearly the same reason, it'd help if voter #2 at least gave his or her own reasons, instead of just saying 'what he said,' or a brief line that encapsulates exactly what voter #1's reasons were.
If someone's sheeping here, they should talk more, so we can better break down where that individual lies, by checking a lot of his or her thoughts.
In post 445, Wake1 wrote:We can assume there is at least one anti-Town entity in the game. That much is certain.
Without evidence, we can't say it's for sure multiball, but we shouldn't automatically assume it's singleball, either.
Especially when you try to imply others are Town based off of that assumption.
It may be that SW is a Serial Killer, and Redff is Blue Scum. Or, the two could be any combination of three possible non-aligned scum forces. THEN AGAIN, and I know some may incorrectly call this WIFOM but I want us to use logic here, they could both be on the same scum team. One could be Town; they could both be Town.
What I'm trying to say is we shouldn't start implying people are Town on the faulty assumption that this is singleball. It is way too early to start making conclusions.
Setup speculation: #1 way scum can be vocal without having to actually make stances. He could have just said the bolded; the whole post was unnecessary and seems like an attempt to appear contributing when it's just saying a whole lot of nothing.
In post 471, Wake1 wrote:Engaging is productive. Shinobi engaging with me was productive, in that I feel I can trust him just a touch more. Your refusal to really talk with me about the game isn't automatically going to make me distrust you, but it's not going to help me trust you, either. We should be active and talking and sharing our thoughts and challenging each other. By not doing that with me, even if it's to utterly uproot my points, deprives Town of information to utilize. If there were only two options, one being you completely destroying my points openly by posting, or two saying it's irrelevant and saying it's not productive, I'd rather you choose the former.
In post 564, Wake1 wrote:[0001] Gamestate At the present moment, I'm not certain what the Setup is. Unlike TSO, I don't think it is prudent to assume one way or another right now. I think we should keep the possibilities open in the back of our minds. It may be singleball, or it may be two 3-player Scum teams with Daytalk and a Serial Killer. Without further evidence, we cannot deduce further. What must not be done, is assuming the Setup is one way, and then deciding someone's alignment based on that assumption. It's a Closed Setup, with an unknown number and quantity of Scum factions, and, iirc, this game may not even be balanced. It could be sort of like my Freshwater Frenzy, which made full use of the new guidelines. Whatever the case, let's... let's keep an open mind and err on the side of caution. My nature is to suspect the worst and, even if it's not nearly as bad, player under those worst of conditions. Meaning, should we win and it not be the worst case scenario, splendid.
More setup spec.
All of these posts serve no purpose other than to take up room and contribute to Wake's protown resume without him actually doing anything beneficial to the town. Wake is such a strong believer in engagements between players but his "engagements" have yielded no results in the form of reads or votes. I could not tell you where Wake's head is at right now, which worries me for someone who talks such a big game. Even when I actually see him engage with other players I don't think it's fruitful to the discussion and seem like throwaway questions more than scumhunting (looking at post 460 here).
So since no one is wagoning Annadog for reasons I am unaware of I'll hop on the Wake wagon.
VOTE: Wake-

Why would Grayfox so blatantly not be playing his town meta if he was scum?
"Why would this person act so scummy if they were scum?"
Anything can be boiled down to a WIFOM argument which is why they hold no weight. Is this really your basis for not scumreading Annadog?-

What have you determined? Like Kop said (why do you keep speaking for me?) I was pretty much the first one to point Anna out so there wasn't really a wagon to jump on.-

If lurking gets to the point of never sharing opinion/participating in a fruitful discussion then yes. Grayfox made it clear that he was paying attention with post 970 but made no effort to share his thoughts. Others have stated that he's not playing his town meta and that he is usually a lot more helpful and invested. I have confirmed this for myself. So I would be fine if he was lynched today.-

In post 1013, GrayFoxxxx wrote:Out of all the votes on me, this is the worst. Its opportunistic. Ive posted alot more today, compared to before the thread was locked.
Me and spiff started interacting less than 2 hours ago, after I speed up a little, he votes me for lurking (I guess?). Seems a little like going through the motions, just to eventually vote me anyway.
Vote for me then. Odd how you don't vote me here when you seemingly have a reason but you wagon Wake later on with absolutely no reasoning. You try to discredit a vote on you and then hop on the wagon of someone else to get the heat off yourself.
You're lucky Annadog is acting so scummy that it might save you today!
Still think Wake is scummy but the wagon that cropped up on him out of nowhere worries me.
@Wake I'm not on your wagon now but made my vote for you clear in post 948.
Ugh Grayfox's spat with TSO is making me second guess my scum read on him. I'm still worried that this only came out after his wagon seemed to become more serious but it's enough for me to prefer an Annadog lynch over him.
VOTE: Annadog20
Seriously @Skybird @Fro99er did something go down in your neighborhood with Annadog? Because you guys both switched from "Annadog is just antitown" to "Annadog is scum" pretty suddenly.
I kind of feel like texcat is getting by without much involvement in any major events today so I'd like more from her.-

Ozgin in your read of me you said you could see Wake as scum from a post of mine but then you call him town in the next line.
Annadog is null town and you say that you're not lynching her today. Why don't you give this distinction to your other null town reads? Even your town reads don't get this line. What makes Annadog special?
Idk the lack of consistency makes me think you made the reads more to placate those suspicious of you instead of to find scum.
But it's cool we'll lynch your scumbuddy Annadog first.-

It's weird to me that Fro99er and Skybird have both confirmed Anna's extremely scummy behavior in the neighborhood, and her performance in the thread is anti-town AT BEST, but people are still town reading her. The fact that Grayfox is almost universally scum-read and it's taking both of Anna's neighbors to vocalize her scumminess for her to get on people's radars makes the latter a better lynch today imo.-

Seriously the amount of inconsistencies pointed out by multiple people about Ozgin just makes me think anyone claiming to not have suspected him either needs to get over themselves or be lynched as scum.
@Wake why aren't you voting for Annadog then? She was a scumlean for you earlier I believe and she's one of the only viable lynch targets. I know she's probably your scum buddy but you should really bus her sooner or later.-
