[appeal to emotion + side note]
Alright, so I see I'm about to be lynched (or at least I'll be auto-lynched if we reach deadline with me at 3+ votes). So first off, I want to say sorry to town for acting as I did. I was a bit over-excited coming into my second game (probably still shaky about winning in my previous game--I got so nervous near the end of that game) and hoped to try and be of help. I guess I acted a bit too excitedly. I dug a hole and now I can tell I'm not going to be able to reach back to the surface and pull myself out. So while lynching me (a townie--yes I just claimed) isn't highly beneficial to the town, maybe it'll give you some insight on day two as far as watching who jumped on attacking me once Adel latched on. I hope that town pulls through in the long run and does nail both scum instead of letting an IC and a few SE's latch onto someone to keep attention off of anything else (yes, I did just put the blame for the distraction on Adel; as I've already said countless times, I put my opinion out and my reasoning, and he went after me for it without any tact).
I understand that I did provide plenty of reason to be voted with my whole attitude this game, and I am hoping that it won't affect your opinion of me if we play again in another game.

In any case, here are my answers to your posts.
EB:
I'm understanding that you're doing something you believe is anti-town because others are pressuring you: is that interpretation correct?
Well, if that's how everyone is going to be expected to scum hunt, my opinion on the ethics of the method seems a bit null. I'll be voted now for asking that question (which you will note hasn't been answered in lieu of asking why I asked it), but realize that I would have been voted also for holding onto my opinion of not looking for scum buds, as current popular belief is against it.
Judging by the overall quantity of your posting, I disagree. You are merely sidetracked; the question is whether it's intentional or not.
Unintentional. I have lost interest in this particular game given the whole theory argument between myself and Adel.
Dramonic:
baaaaaacktracking on his own opinion and doing stuff he himself deems anti-town.
Parroting and jumping on the wagon, I see? Anything else you want to say? I find your short posts that merely parrot others' opinions (which you've consistently done throughout the game) without providing your own thoughts to be a bit scummy.
Zwet:
IKD, you can't say that just because right now we are suspicious of you that we're tunneling, per ce, as tunneling is usually considered scummy. Can you give us a list of suspicions?
...just suspicious, huh? Yeah right. That explains 3 votes on me and all of the discussion based pretty much completely on me and how scummy/arrogant I've been.
By the way, did you just say that it can't be tunning because tunnelling is considered scummy? (aka... you wouldn't be doing something because that would be considered scummy so it would be a dumb thing to do... WIFOM)
Princess:
No I would still think you are arrogant even with an IC/SE tag, from peoples replies from my question so far I see that no one is completley new, so your teaching points didn't really help anyone apart from me thinking you may be scum.
No one is completely new? Well, maybe not many of the people currently playing, as most of the newbies have been replaced with more experienced players. But my post trying to be helpful was before all of those replacements.
Also, I hope you don't use my apparent arrogant attitude in this game as a reason not to play later. If you read my previous game and my other current game, you'll see that that's not the attitude I try to have all the time and it definitely wasn't intentional.
So, pairing people up as scum didn't work in favour of town in your last game, so why are you asking me then?
See my response to EB.

And to answer your question about IKD...I am finding his 'teachings' good food for thought. Several people have given 'lessons' throughout the posts and I for one appreciate all of them...but IKD has been a little more vocal...not that I find that a bad thing.
Well, at least someone appreciates my attempt at being helpful.
Manzcar:
Also IKD is suspicious to me. The talk about the teory and arguing over is a distraction to thee town and not discussing theory was brought up in my first game with him so it seemed odd.
I started out by stating my opinion and backing it up. I only continued to discuss it once Adel decided to do so also.
I also didn't lke how he dropped his vote on tfrench just because I said that his vote did not line up with his theory on third vote is scum.
If you will read my post, I said:
In any case, until I get a chance digest everything that has happened so far, I will go ahead and remove my vote on TF.
Unvote
I didn't unvote based on you saying anything about how my vote lined up with theory. In fact, you encouraged me to look at others (you said in post 150 "Why have you not looked at the others on the bandwagon?"), so that actually justifies my unvote.
In any case, you know how I played as scum, and you know how I am playing right now. Keep that in mind.
Zwet (again):
WE DON'T WANT A NO LYNCH PEOPLE!
And yet you're unwilling to actually prevent a no lynch by voting me for another ~4 hours. And you act like we're rushed to lynch someone. Yes, a no lynch is bad, but as EB kindly pointed out, there were still 4 days (and now there are still 2 days).
THE DEADLINE IS IN TWO FREAKING DAYS! We can lynch dramonic tomorrow.
........................................
How are you so sure that dramonic will be tomorrow's lynch?
Anyway, like I said, it
was fun
wasn't that fun playing with all of you. I hope that my play during this game doesn't tarnish our ability to play civilly in future games together. As I realize my lynch is pretty much inevitable, this will probably be my last post in this game unless I feel like entertaining your questions a bit more. Cheers!
