Its perfectly reasonable to think that BG was scummy, but that volkan should be allowed to live (at least for now) while we pursue other options. I, for one, think that BG's offenses were not the most lynchworthy things that have happened this game. Your attempt to create a false dilemma is noted. Also, while you say that volkan is your preferred lynch, and that pyro and schez are next in line, you continue to attack pyro more aggressively than volk and schez. I had earlier theorized that you were trying to bus your buddy, and nothing so far has changed my oppinion on that.
I have always had a VERY hard time reading vollkan's play, and I was not here in game while babygirl was to witness her actions in context. As it is, I can only go back and view what she said through a post-hoc lens. As such, I can feel that she was scummy, but I don't feel qualified to create a powerful case against her play.
Since Vollkan replaced her, as I just stated, Vollkan gets me wrapped up in thousands of null-reads of his posts, which do not a case make. I haven't been convinced enough of Vollkan's innocence to pull my vote from him, but in the mean time I buy the meta case against BG enough to keep vollkan at the top of my suspect list.
The reason I have targeted Pyro so heavily is because his play is more readable and less neutral. He offers a better read for me and a more prosperous line of questioning than I can draw on Vollkan. Pyro is slowly becoming more suspicious than Vollkan for me, but I still don't want to lose the bead that we had on BG/vollkan.
Also, to call my "parroting" an oversimplification is at best a difference of opinion. It was easier for us to pull tells from BG's play, and much less frustrating, as people have called vollkan's play thus far. If BG had stayed much longer, she'd have easily been lynchalicious. To the extent of my knowledge, there is no role that changes alignment when a player is replaced. As such, if BG was a good lynch, then Vollkan is a good lynch. I don't see how that is incorrect.
Come to think of it, you've recently praised Schez's case as being strong despite your earlier suspicions of him. What is your current position on Schez?
I quickly scanned through my posts, just out of morbid curiosity of what you would be referring to. The only time which I mentioned him was when I brought up that he had failed to procure a vote. When he responded, due to the meta I had on him from concurrent games I'm playing with him and his time on the site thus far, I decided that he was intimidated by who he was playing with, and didn't cast a vote. I still find it strange that he hasn't voted, but that doesn't eliminate the validity of his case.
