Earlier, Spiffy accused me of only going after newer players, but Eagle4 is doing exactly that.

I will pose a question to you, Eagle4. Who do you think is most likely scum, out of the following users: Walrein, Lightwolf, Spiffy, askaninjask, zorbees, Jalmont, Empoof?
Well, I completely disagree with thinking that you should have to "think outside the box", since the obvious lynch targets are the ones who have been acting suspicous and are probably scum. For your question, I'd have to say LightWolf as the most likely scum, since he's seemingly avoiding questions thrown at him and I don't like his reasons for being inactive; they don't make a lot of sense.

He doesn't at all acknowledge my post about him earlier, or zorbees's similar complaint. He is picking and choosing on what issues he wants to discuss, and the way in which he is discussing them is really weird as well. I said earlier I wasn't sure whether he was scum or just new, but this post makes me lean hard scum.
Wait.. so you don't like the post because it has legitimate reasoning? Or am I misinterpreting your post here? Of course I acknowledged your post and Zorbees' post, but there was literally nothing to respond to. You do mean this post, right? I don't see anyway I can respond to that post except pointing out that it's stupid saying I'm scum because I make coherent posts. Zorbees' post is a near replica of yours.

I, as well as several other players, explained to them why no lynching was a bad idea, and shinyskarmory chose to continue supporting it with horrible logic so I voted for him.

That's correct-I was in Company Mafia before I was subbed out because I got stuck in DC in the middle of a power outage.

On the no lynch topic-I honestly thought no lynch was a good idea when I posted it on page 3. At that point, I didn't have enough serious posts to work with to make good reads, and I prefer not to waste everyone's time with shitty reads.


The bulk of shinyskarmory's posts come from "nolynch-gate" and as Jalmont stated earlier, and I admit, that really does not contribute much about your thoughts about people. And his constant (crappy...) questioning of people without sharing an opinion seems like he's trying to disguise this for regular contributions. Plus, he was on the Shining Latios bandwagon and frankly I've liked SL's Day 2 so far, and for the most part I didn't have much of a problem with SL's Day 1 so I think anyone on the SL bandwagon is a point against them.
I suspect Eagle4 slightly because of what Jalmont said about his posts being a whole lot of nothing, but he isn't really giving me the "New town trying to help" vibe I get from TPM and More Cowbell.

Once again, I'm not going to throw out shitty reads just to waste everyone's time. If I don't feel that I can provide a clean read, I won't post one-similarly, I'm not just going to randomly post shit unless I feel it's worth posting, or if I need to remind Blue_Tornado that I still exist.

Also, I proposed SL on day 1 because I thought if we were going to mislynch someone we might as well mislynch an idiot and save ourselves the trouble of dealing with them. Today, there's more information to be had so lynching SL would be a last resort for me.


So my lynching priorites at this moment are:
Walrein>shinyskarmory>>>>>Eagle4>zorbees

glad to know I'm on your radar
Ugh, I voted for you, then changed my vote to Shining Latios, and then you come up with this really scummy post. As in, extremely scummy. You go on about how you don't want to waste everybody's time with your "shitty reads", which is a terrible excuse for not contributing to the discussion. These reads are vital, for the village to gain information. I also extrememely dislike your last sentence, there is no need to say that and it just comes out as intimidating. Similarly though, I don't get the noobtown vibe from Shining Latios which a lot of people are getting? He's just making scum-like posts which I completely disagree with. I also don't think he's had a good D2 (a bad D1 as well), because as I previously stated in one of my recent posts, all he's done is ask questions and hasn't posted anything of any substance or value.

And then suddenly you switch to SL after my suggestion? So SL is scummier than SS, why did you not vote for him first?
Yes, I was unhappy with LightWolf, but shinyskarmory seemed much more scummier at the time (as you've just pointed out), and still does. And jeez, can you stop saying that going with the flow is scumlike, please see my response to that earlier previously stated in the post: "I vote for those who are the most suspicous". Also, you never suggested me to place my vote on Shining Latios, you just prompted me to look at each of their posts in more depth, and so I thought Shining Latios was scummier.

Zorbees: Probably village. I haven't really noticed him as much, but he's definitely not been lurking and Walrein's post as well as me looking through the thread has convinced me he's most likely village.
askaninjask: Again, probably village, although I disagree with his reasoning for voting me, and for voting Spiffy.
Walrein: Probably village. Probably. His Zorbees analysis was much better than his previous "detailed" analysises since he put a lot of reasoning and justified opinions into the post. However, he hasn't really done anything to convince me of him being village, and his analyses on D1 could just be a way to escape past the "post at least once in 24 hours" clause, albeit he made some mildly intelligent posts on day 1.
Shining Latios: I've already stated my opinions on Shining Latios, but yeah, most probably scum.
