Oh ewww

I need to read the last page better, either way I like sitting here. Its odd, he feels like he's backtracking. I like that he took his vote off, but he says "its to early to pressure him" and he is already avoiding questioning this early in the game. He feels like he's trying to stay on the down low and stay out of the spot light, but for what reason?

it's because I've been at my fiance's house and then a Broadway show for the past two days and I suck at phone posting. I'll catch up better tomorrow

Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Fuzzys opening is odd and a little awkward but that doesn't necessarily mean scum and beyond that, it feels like he has expectation on your knowledge of his play but in reality, I don't think is as great as he thinks.

I think he's on the fence about you, Nero and has made an (albiet awkward attempt) to get closer to you which is something I find rather intriguing and admittedly, he's pretty funny.

I didn't even vote him for his opening and it's not why I think he's scum. My vote on him was a naked and reasonless vote and he took it as a serious vote. I feel like him feeling so threatened is scum. Also, as mentioned, he's not being a lurksack. I think its entirely possible that he rolls scum and decides to not lurk.

In post 64, Hopkirk wrote:@TPG-Key: A four-person scum hydra has incentive to coordinate before posting. Based on experience, your town hydra partners posted a lot more while in hydras. I just finished a game where RC/North were a town hydra, and Cheeky was in a town hydra (and it read like Cheeky barely had a hydra QT). Despite RC/North dying n1, the two hydras accounted for over 50% of the posts in a 9 player game. Therefore, not posting much initially is definitely odd in comparison.
Hopkirk this is dumb. I've only just noticed the game started. Also, we're town so.

Chikadee you seem different to me. I can't put my finger on it rn. But I feel like there's a bit of inconsistency in your posting so far.

1. You cast shade on someone whilst being lamist with your "why can't we scum hunt hunt if everyone hasn't posted" - taking what the dude said way out of context.

2. You say all the votes on the TFL wagon are bad but you don't say how instead you justify it with a weak TR.

3. When asked what you didn't like about hopkirk you say you didn't like his push on us, but how do you know we're town, weren't you the one saying we should scumhunt even if everyone hasn't checked in?

4. You opened with a gif...then explained it was because you were running short on time....it's RVS a naked vote would've taken far less time than sourcing and posting a gif plus it would have been far more productive.

Nero-Not sure how my half -hearted vote is scummy...... but okay whatever makes you happy man. I think you took my vote more serious than I did yours. It was an obvious push forward for the game. Really I think you are reading too much into it but if you think I am scum than fine.....Im okay with that

Momrangal- I am almost always awkward both as scum and as town. Me being awkward is like the roads being wet when it rains...it just is
Fuzzy is literally the ultimate lynchbait

3. I never said you were town. It had everything to do with the push, not who was pushed.
4a. I don't like RVS votes. I always feel awkward and forced when I make them, so I don't tend to do it a lot. Yes, you can find games where I have (because I know people here looooove to meta dive), but I've never liked it.
4b. I have giphy one click away in my favorites, and I'm automatically signed in, and I have that gif saved to my favorites.
4c. I was late to work anyway. :lol:

Who does everyone think had the worst opening?
How do you expect to find the culprit when you're all worried about each other's feelings? If you're planning to expose a liar, then you have to corner them psychologically.

In post 94, Hopkirk wrote:@Fitz: That's a good point. Looking at Y's complete game, he gets straight into it when making his first post a similar number of posts in (as town).

@Kop: how do you feel about TFL?
I don't scum read him. I read his ISO, and nothing of note is pinging me apart from when he said that he is always lynchbait.

I feel at the current moment that he seems to be an easy out for a wagon without really much resistance. Scum are likely to push this one because I think they will feel it could easily take off.

I didn't notice that Brass took his vote off TFL, but I still stand by my point. His vote seems very opportunistic, not knowing the vote count on said person is just a non-viable excuse. That's careless and could have easily on another day hammered someone. Someone asking for scum leans isn't a reason to vote for someone, as I've seen countless others asking for peoples reads, it's virtually the same thing, you wouldn't really get a bad feeling towards the people asking for them reads in all honesty.

So are you saying you think that he was aware he was putting TFL on L-2, then left the wagon when I asked him if he knew he'd put TFL on L2 because he was afraid of pressure?
