No, I'm trying to tell you your read on me is shit, and because it's shit I think you're scum.

Maybe you could elaborate on this reaction thing

Do I actually need to restate my reasoning? It's fucking obvious. Town Xay pays more attention to the thread than that. He doesn't give a shit about the game and he's making no attempt to read anyone. He's goddamn scum. Now help me lynch him.


Meta is weak, effort is even weaker as an argument. Well done though, your posts continuously increase my confidence in Xay being TOWN.

In post 356, ++-- wrote:The Dry-fit tradition of not explaining anything is continued by the replacement.

Pine is lurky, uninteresting, and likely a buddy of any actually active scum. Xay has weak play thus far; I'd imagine even for a micro (which this is my first, but I assume it goes faster). But Xay is still here and Pine is not.

When he is here, this awkward and agonistic posting is all we get?

If I was playing a blitz game, this is the first thing I would lynch. The content is lackluster, the reads are forced, and the commitment is nonexistent.

Okay. Do you have a case for TownPine?

Because, afaic his 'scumreads' were pulled from one post and were weak enough that I had to use my imagination to see them.

This an all subsequent posts about his DF read are

I can see where TTH is coming from there, but it's the wrong conclusion. Pine and ++-- being scum doesn't depend on Xay's status. Or if it does then Xay must be scum.

It's the third one I'm not sure about though. Dry-fit's voting pattern seems to show that he only voted Pine when it was safe to do so then switched to Xay to get a lynch. Pk did the same. I'm leaning in that direction but if Xay is town then why didn't one of Pine and ++-- vote him when he was at L-1?


@ Xayzeck:
Jingle's not going to be lynched toDay. Can you switch to Pine please? Or ++-- is good too.
