I can't believe I just noticed this - on Page 4, Meji said something about "it's fine for yernab to be defensive even if he's a townie, but the only thing he's saying is 'smilies are not an argument! I am not scum!', and it doesn't help, he must also show who he thinks is scum". And immediately, on page 5, yernab copies exactly what Meji says town should do, including voting one of the popular choices Manho, and still trying to distract everyone to the smiley whateverthing.

Yernab's new replacement, do you have anything to say?

agree with this post.
not sure what yernab was doing, but he was not / I am not scum. :) (uh oh! I used a smiley! )

Let's not care about the smileys. Bjl, any explanation for yernab's mocking, WIFOMy, scummy, "tries to look too townie" attitude?

There's a few people we need to hear from that need to commit to a position.

Let's not forget that the deadline is 3 days away now.

Just remember, if Wrath shows scum, look straight to crazypianist right afterwards. If he doesn't, which I highly doubt will happen, look to the Wrath bandwagon.

I don't know. maybe newbie town mistakes?
manho wrote:@bjl, what is your thought of the game? who you think is scummy and why?
I've read the thread a few times and I don't see anything blatantly scummy. It is day 1 after all, and we don't really know if there is any meaning in anyone's actions until day 2, when we have the perspective of what's happened with the lynch and night happenings.

Since he's leading in the votes, can someone summarize the case on WrathOfShadows?

I'd like a
specific
rundown on the case against me as well, since people seem to be dissenting on exactly how i was "being scummy".

Meji's vote puts me at one vote away from death (L-4 in my viewpoint)

If
I get lynched (and consequently turn up to be
town
) I suggest everyone take a good look at EtherealCookie and Meji.

Some would say he's a killer.

Sure, lets see. Why vote for Wrath?

First off - he hasnt posted since Oct 3, and suddenly shows up to post right when he goes to L-1?

His Cookie vote is not very solid, (11th Wrath post). Cookie is 'intelligent and can sway any argument' and that Cookie had two other cases that apparently were good. The cases also werent good enough for Wrath, since he voted Cookie

He in his 12th apparently it was bad of Cookie for focusing on him, manho, and tubby. Yet in the SAME post he notes he has 3 ideas for scum also. How is that a case on Cookie?

13+14 - not so interesting. But definitely not convincing me Cookie is better


15 - Ah, Im bad now that I voted for him? (And he finally posts again when he is at L-1). Why not post when I made my case earlier on him when I said I was going to vote

The day is nearing a close and Im deciding Wrath is looking like the best bet

My earlier case still seems valid, but this is a fresh look at it

I like how you want people to look at us if you show town (Quite unlikely, by the way), yet you don't defend yourself at all. You're just saying you will show town, trying to convince people that they're making a wrong lynch, yet there's actually no real effort to defend yourself against any claims, is there?

Also, why the focus on Meji? Just because he/she put you on L-1? There are other people on this bandwagon, you know.

Considering the way that things have been twisted so far, anything defense I attempt to use at this point would be turned against me. I full well realize I screwed myself somewhat, but that's been exacerbated with others picking my comments apart.

Hmm, I thought I read somewhere that lurking's not necessarily a scumtell, but anyway. I've never actually focused much on him, and the fact that he went all "ULTIMATE CONFIRMAGEEEE!!!" in the beginning seems to be drawing attention to himself, so it doesn't make sense why he's suddenly trying to distract the attention away from himself now. It's strange.

i think you are talking about yernab. it seems that he got so much attention and don't know what to do. it is a newbie scum mistake, not a newbie town one. but i will do a reread on him first.

and after a reread, i confirm that is a newbie scum mistake. he is too excited but too careful in his posts. newbie town can be too excited, but they won't be writing their post so carefully. and he is too defensive, newbie town won't. and too serious about the RVS, newbie town won't.
