This whole argument is a theoretical exercise that doesn’t reflect reality. You are attacking me for calling out his lack of scum-hunting by waving away one of his posts and then stating that he doesn’t have much content. Kage controls this quantity and quality of content. Defending his lack of scum-hunting (which, BTW, has persisted for his entire ISO) by saying he is active lurking is a pretty bad argument to make.
Sawyer – find a post in Kage’s ISO that shows any sort of scum-hunting and point it out to me. Here’s a
link to simplify the process for you
For the record notice that since he’s come under fire by myself and others Kage hasn’t bothered to begin scum-hunting but just faded into the background. He’s certainly been active in other threads.
Sawyer wrote:But that's in the past now that you have openly admitted to thinking it's specifically scummy. So you think his insult (to LMP and yourself) and difference of opinion (knowing which characters are in the game) is particularly scummy? Is there anything else to support your vote (just curious).
Reasons why I am still very happy with my vote.
1.
He pulls a double of scumminess here as I have previously mentioned. He fences-sits on the possibility of a Chrono policy lynch. Scummy for not taking a stance when it is a fairly black or white issue regardless of what side you might fall on. He then advocates saving a policy lynch for a nebulous later, which reads to me as not today.
His later explanation regarding that issue isn’t convincing, IMO.

As JMJ has succinctly put it the bolded part is role-fishing. Scummy.
Kage wrote:Also, knowing which characters are in the game could be pretty important actually.
Based on knowledge of the show, we might then be able to guess at their powers and would almost surely know which characters were scum.
It seems like an interesting enough idea to me to (much later in the game) ask what peoples' character names are
Here he further states(in the bolded section) that he really is role-fishing. That is a road-map for scum to target Town PRs. While Town is wading through the various claims (which undoubtedly include safe-claims of some sort) Scum has a very good idea where to start killing.
The last portion where he states he means later in the game reads to me as back-tracking. If that was his original thnking there would be no reason for him to present it early Day 1 in the first place. He got called out (rightfully so, IMO) by multiple people and thus attempts to ‘revise’.
3. As stated above … total lack of scum-hunting.

It's only because I'm town that I thought it would be safe to make a little joke comment (apparently I was wrong). I don't know any scum that would be so bold as to say something like that (granted, I have only played in 3 games).

Kage wrote:Plus I was in the final 3 in both games I lost (the town loss was my partner's early voting mistake, but the scum loss was mine).
Subtle inference that based on his past games he’s made it deep into the game (regardless of alignment) thus he should do so in this game. Flawed use of meta.
Individually each fallacy isn’t outright scummy but the weight of them en mass tips the scale.
That should be more than enough to clarify why my vote rests with him.
PREVIEW EDIT - The prodigal son returns. Explanations as to why you aren't doing anything really don't replace actual scum-hunting. Perhaps your typing would be best served doing that.

Umm …what? I called Kagelord scummy for fence-sitting. And then voted for him. What in the heck are you saying here?
Reaper you are a conundrum. I really like
231 . It’s very relevant to scum-hunting and advancing the game.
Then I see page 10 and 11’s ‘Great RC debate’.
What in the heck am I going to do with you son? You just encourage Ani and others to continue to add nothing of value to the game with that. You are wasting your potential here [/Dad style pep talk off]
