Can you please restate it?

I'm still assessing whether I'd prefer to vote for Gamma Emerald than for boring.
I guess that for the purpose of clarity I'll put my vote on Gamma Emerald for now.
VOTE: Gamma Emerald
I'd like to know more about why boring is 2nd scum for you when you found most the other players cases on her uncompelling.
Is the crux of your case that she finds LUV scummier then Implosion, when through PoE she should be on Implosion?
How do you feel about Implosion?

Good for you. Care to answer my question and answer why it took you this long to take a hard stance on anything?

Okay Gamma.
How about Zoronos?
Do you still tr me too?

Looking back at boring, she seems to have done a lot of mudslinging early Day 1(before Shadow's claim).
As for Grendel and Zoronos, those are others I need to reconsider. I've actually been fostering a Grendel scumread because of the fact I can't find anything to townread him on that's non-meta. I'm hoping things will be easier to sort with a flip.

Okay nonononono this will not do. A lot of Grendel's posts in the later art of Day 1 seem to be stalling. This feels like someone being coached in day chat. I understand he has school stuff going on but it's so widespread I can't handwave it.

I'm just interested. Because their is something Town!Gamma would have brought up.
So you are saying you don't actually have any case on me? Just a lack of reasons to town read me?
Pre-edit
Hmm... that wasn't what I expected you to talk about. Especially since you'd know better then anybody else here what my living conditions are like.

I'm thinking I know what Grendel is talking about, and I don't have anything to say about that right now. So you may as well say it because I don't think you'll get anything out of me by being vague.

Stances and votes are not the same thing; if you are curious as to any of the various stances I took, check all the various scum reads I've posted throughout the game along with the reasoning for them.
Your statement's premise is false, so the question is irrelevant. Unless you mean "Why do you vote seldom but post a lot" then answer is playstyle.

You're right...stances and votes are not the same thing. Stances and expressed reads mean nothing. They can be easily manipulated to "mean" whatever you need them to mean at the time. So, to clarify...by "hard stance" I mean something that actually has meaning behind it.
Votes are something real. Sure, scum bus. Town mislynches. But the end result is real.
Your "playstyle" is safe and manipulative to your needs.

If you know what I'm talking about then why do you need me to spell it out for you?
If I have to go to that extent then I'm voting you. So give me a guess.

Something about the game we were in that just ended. I don't know what you could have to say about that right now, and I personally feel there's not much that could matter.

Nope.
VOTE: Gamma
I guess I'll explain tomorrow when I put a case up. I have to get off soon.
In the meantime you can explain why you were so quick to sheep your tertiary scum read.
I should clarify that my stance on Penguin is that he is a lazy player whose play style I dislike, but the scum read on him is light enough that I ordinarily wouldn't have voted him in this situation.
I mainly wanted to obligate Zoronos into making a real vote. So mission accomplished.
Though I guess Penguin did a decent job of that himself.

Sorry you dislike my playstyle, but it's not lazy. Zoronos may have voted me, but he has yet to do anything real.

Ummmm... what?
I am not really sure how you thought you were obligating me to do things, mind explaining your thought process there?

Gamma, where was this - "The "Shadow intended to frame me and PP" idea is pretty illogical" ?
I'd like to read the post in context, and I'm not sure what post you were referring to.
That's what did it for you? I thought you vote slow and seldom. It doesn't feel like you to post a vote without much thought.

I'll look into Zoro later.
Gamma feels more and more scummy every time he posts.
When I originally called Gamma out, I pointed out that he was explicitly making town reads without much to go off of. Since I pointed this out, he hasn't posted a single confident town read. I don't like that his play style changed.
He waffled like a leaf in the wind on the Eager / Boring vote. He failed to post anything of substance on either of them. cu
Since the flip I haven't found a good example of him scum hunting anyone. He's just sassily defended himself. It doesn't feel like he's trying to solve the game.
He's my strongest scum read right now and it's going to take something fairly significant to change my mind.
