He seems to be taking things more seriously, so I see no reason to lynch him anymore. However, I will not be voting for no lynch.

Stop skimming through posts coze that what scum do.

Skimming posts is anti-town, because then things are easily missed or confused. Scum are generally more careful to read everything so they don't screw up and say something that will expose them.

I'd say a hallmark of (bad) scum is that they skim in the sense that they only bother looking for things that directly address themselves or maybe their scumteam.  Anything else is ignored.  (Bad) town is more likely to skim in the sense of looking at everything, but barely paying attention to any of it.  They may react much more strongly to something about themselves but not because it is all they were willing to even look for. 

I don't know how my definitions match up with what nen was calling "skimming" or what he was trying to peg you as.

I do too follow the games, by which I mean I read them thoroughly when I'm reading them.  So, for instance, I came back and read every post and made responses or comments as appropriate, instead of just "hey guys anything important?  cant be bothered to read 350 posts lol"  And I like to think my votes are well reasoned if not always correct. 

It would still be much appreciated, if you were more active. You can be a great asset to town, if you want to. It's just that too often it seems that you don't want to and leave people guessing if you really are town (and most of the time you are). You can't pull this nonsense everytime, just like we couldn't allow radish to play like his usual self forever.

Yeah, I'm just trying to defend what integrity I have left

Also, I believe seth when he says he was not a player in any previous game. I might be misremembering but I have a definite memory of him in VGC Mafia, so I'll believe that he was checking in to see what crazy thread game we were doing. Therefore, I'll

Oh. Well that's a terrible reason.

But it explains why my PM contained a note that I should troll as much as possible.

Anyway, back to bong. Assuming he is scum, do you think it's possible that hatmoza told him to make a reference to PM text in order to get in an early "confirmed town"? It's a move that could backfire, but also one that could pay off as most people probably would put bong on their list of townies.


Plausible, but way to elaborate, and if that would be true, their plan has been working incredibly smoothly.

scum list:
Spurge, Nen, Hatmoza, SethNintendo, Noctis

town list:
Mario, Stefl, Linkz, Zero, Rol, Bong Lover, Radish, FF, Yoshiya

not sure:
Nacho, MT Zehover, Benao, Astrogamer, Thanatos, HappD

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just my general feeling so far. I didn't base this list on much, so it may change rather dramatically as time goes on. Don't feel too bad if you are town on my scum list. If you are scum on my town list let me know so I can fix that. Thanks.

Bong, that was directed at happy. Since before you, nen was the only one I mentioned being suspicious of. So if I believe you are a threat due to your deductive skills, it would suggest I don't want you going after nen. Further, that would mean I was bussing my scummate, which is not beyond me, yet totally completely unneeded when the FF train could be the spotlight. Ahhh, but what if FF is scum too you say? Well then sacrificing him serves the same purpose as bussing nen.

Why would it suggest that, in what way? Do I or he think that nen is scum? Why do you say this? So the bussing theory is not working for me.

(@bong. bussing means "throwing your teammate under the bus". There's another use of the term, but it's actually an incorrect one which is used instead of bus-driving a player, which is playing the night action of a bus driver, but that's for later.)

This is all just fabulative reasoning that was pulled out of a mafia's arse so as to throw you off by some kind of far-fetched knowledge that really if you pay attention is really just thin air.

Bottom line, when did I or Bong suspect you and nen to be scumbuddies?

I do no know roles well enough. Can he be JOAT and us have a miller? Why would Joat have a miller in it?

But if that is something that can happen, then stefl is lying. Or it was one hell of a claim by FF.

Oh wow, thank you Rol for causing this to happen.  Everybody look at this please, and know it is in response to this and this (#10). 

So what do you make of this?

I find it hard to believe spurge would be that credulous if he was actually trying to evaluate whether one of us is lying, which suggests he's scum.  But mainly, it just shows that he's not paying attention, since I do credit him with at least the critical thinking skills of a kindergartener.  I didn't say all this before because I wanted to see if the situation would play out any more.  Which it may yet if he's TRULY unobservant.

I don't believe your PM said any such thing. No matter though.

No, I used to regard hat highly regardless of his alignment, but over time it's become apparant that while he can be very good(as town) at times, he's in it more for the kicks than anything else. I don't mind that though because even if he's town he won't just sabotage town just for the lulz.

And more importantly, if scum, hat is no mastermind.(I used to think he was, but then confirmed that not to be the case) So he would not tell a newbie to act in such a way. It's possible(though unlikely given both the rest of the players and the timeing) that someone else would have instructed him to do so, but even if hat had told him to do such, he would not have further "confirmed" him as town. Why? Because above all else, hat is not a team player. He values his own life in Mafia above everyone else. So he wouldn't tie himself to a plan that could backfire and expose him as scum. hat would know that even with the early head start, he can't always be there to make sure Bong doesn't blow the whole thing up and get himself lynched, not to mention town power roles that can pin Bong as scum. Plus there is likely a SK or Town killing role(just personal setup meta) that could force Bong's flip at any given time.
