VOTE: Panzer
1) First of all this is my main
2) I feel you're using this as a scum excuse to hammer with no heat on you
3) If this is really an issue for you take it up with others.
3rd post of the game. She immediately takes the defensive. Her only posts prior to the quoted are her asking why people want to hammer AAA and a friendly throwaway posts - nothing egregious. So she immediately assumes she being attacked despite the facts of her not being an alt and not being annoying previously in this game. She's just immediately paranoid, in a "why are you trying to lynch me?!" sort of way. We off to a strange start.
This defensiveness last for 3 posts.
Then we got this exchange

then sub out no one is forcing you to be here
I want to be here because I like the theme. I can't help who else signs up for the games I want to play, especially considering I think I signed up 3rd? Also, you're incredibly upset and I think it's mostly for no reason?

<3 alisae.
Just a hard switch(accompanied by an AAA hard switch). No explanation for why the vote and no response to my post, snarky or otherwise.
The post eventually gets explained as a pressure vote - after being spoon fed that logic - (#88) and one that was purely to get a reaction(#101)
I find these things to be absolutely ridiculous considering these three facts: it was without any explanation, it was the first vote on the wagon, and the following post,
This was
6 minutes
after this supposed pressure vote. Are you serious? That is the opposite of a pressure vote. That's a no pressure vote. What is there even to react to? "vote, teehee i don't scum read them tho, [size=large]
BUT FEEL THE FUCKING PRESSURE
[/size]"
The fuck?
My theory, she is distancing herself from trying to policy lynch the policy lyncher - always a pretty funny path really - because that wagon went no where fast and doesn't even have the legitimacy of AAA's hop because at least they straight said "this vote is for being abrasive". I became slightly less abrasive they left the wagon, that's how that works, w/e cool. So what we have so far is a paranoid person trying to OMGUS a lynch through on PAGE 2!! and then try to pivot away on bullshit reasoning.
And we continue.

If you're town (and maybe you are sadly) I think you're just policy voting me and that's perfectly fine. No respect for you but still fine. If you really scumread me though and you're town then no biggie.

In post 73, Maki Harukawa wrote:Like it's not hard to read between alts or take notes if this really upsets you don't play or sub out you can see what your signing up for and it's not like it's impossible for you read between the alts.
Like fuck right off if you're gonna play that policy lynch bs
Quite shocking really. In the span of about two pages you've gonna from paranoid that I wanted to lynch you and fairly upset about it, "no biggie if you scumread me as town". Very strange tone shift. Almost as strange as THE NEXT TONE SHIFT

Also this will help me sort her slot further (Or atleast TRY to sort her slot further)
You can't meta me stop trying
We've gone from paranoid to apathetic to absolute cocksure confidence. The next tone shift is full on frustration and a 1v1 on Alisae because he voted for her. This is then taken back in post 236 where maki calls her vote not serious and vote dunn as her first serious vote but not really. Also refuses to explain her reasoning, again.
Also since her shift from my wagon to Alisae post 79 she calls me town twice for 0 explanation and also counter wagons LLD at some point without explanation. Seems very spaghetti strat to me. Keep throwing stuff at the wall and see what sticks and go with that.
tl;dr
Erractic shifts in tone that seem align with how she feels the game is going for her
Numerous unexplained vote changes with inconsistent recollections of the varying severity of those votes.
An poor ratio of "explaining why they are town":scumhunting. something like 17:0 on that front. It's pretty bad. 50 posts 0 scumhunting
About a 4th of their post are just throw away jokey type stuff that provide absolutely nothing to the game or the town, It honestly seems to me that it's deliberate in how little actual content this person is putting out - something that is null at the most generous but seems more like scum trying to fluff around without being committal.

pedit: It forces her out as sona almost certainly a 1hp champion(given that the in game character is actually squishier than a caster minion at level 1). The more I think about it the more i actually think this might be an anti-town role, but i realize i'm getting far too into setup speculation territory and i think we should cut that off at the pass now and I apologize for bringing it up. It was awfully amateur of me.
