So, guys, now that we have a dead NPC, how noteworthy is a Bodyguard?

Just because NPCs have their own Win Conditions doesn't mean that they're all anti-town. With hindsight, it's obvious that the Bodyguard had a pro-town WC, but even at that, it seems a bit strange that you believe that an NPC winning the game is an inherently
bad thing

Somehow feeling the need to confirm the fact that he can, indeed, read the first post.
Spambot, in 67, wrote:Also, that you were criticizing others for lack of content without going after scum first bothers me. You're showing now that you'll post a lot to defend yourself, but you haven't done anything to look for scum. I think being so self-centered and unhelpful is a decent scum tell.
I agree.

"You're acting too much like town, so you must be scum." Ladies and gents, it doesn't get much more WIFOM than this. Have you considered the possibility that I AM town, with a propensity for relaxed jokes?
"You're acting too much like town, so you must be scum" isn't actually what he said though, is it? "It does look like you are
trying
to appear townie right now" isn't actually a Too Townie argument because of the word "trying". What Spambot has is an opinion of the tone of your posts.
Let me clarify:
"I think that Alice is scum because, basically, all her votes have been in fairly unsuspicious places and her arguments are all conveniently well thought out."
This is a Too Townie argument, IMO, because it takes what are pro-town actions and illogically makes them anti-town because there's too many of them. However...
"I think that Alice is scum because her posts seem forced and look as though they're trying to broadcast 'I'M TOWNIE!'."
This isn't a Too Townie argument, since it's an analysis of the tone of a players posts, which is what Spambot has done above.
I've just wasted minutes of my life arguing what is, essentially, a small point. Still, possible misrepresentation on your part is a slight scumtell, so it adds a little bit more onto the evidence against you.
Spambot, in 106, wrote:No, you are being ridiculous. Please, please for the love of god give the scum the opportunity to come in and ninja lynch him. That would be fantastic for us, because we've caught two scum being incredibly dumb. Ninja lynching almost NEVER happens. That is an unrealistic fear for you to have, and it doesn't matter whether you think he's scum or the scummiest; you should have your vote on somebody. If you think he's scummy but not too bad, then what are you doing? Play the game and figure some stuff out.
You have now convinced me that you're scum. I think what is really going on is that you didn't want to be seen as bandwagoning on him or were waiting for the opportunity so YOU could ninja lynch him. I imagine that if another person or two had come in and placed those votes, you suddenly would have been very happy to hammer.
I agree fully with your argument in your first paragraph entirely, but your second paragraph seems to have some unnecessary aggression. It's enough to make me feel uncomfortable with this post...

"Town powerrole" is as generic a claim as you can get, and is only really useful as a cover for scum to prevent a counterclaim.
So, overall:
FomS: Spambot
as winner of the "It's not what you said, it's the way you said it" prize. I seem to be agreeing with a lot that he's saying, but I can't help but feel unsettled by his aggression.
Vote: Phate
Now, to all the new people:
Post words. Kthx.
