First off, I apoligize for not posting yesterday. I had a post coming up, but it got deleted and since I had (And still have) a ton of homework to catch up on, I did not have time to make another one.
I am a Vanilla Townie. No one can dislike my O's but they can't kill scum.
Kirbyoshi, you're next.
Responding to SpyreX's response to me that isn't outdated due to the flips.

Fair enough. While I still do disagree with meta being useless in almost all cases, I can see where you are coming from.
SpyreX wrote:Like saying you have no scum reads? A statement that, *gasp*, makes little sense because of the nature of the blowback it gets?
Is that the strongest of scum tells?
Pushing through a mislynch and then slinking into the shadows IS SCUMMY. I don't know where you're gettign this be-all, end-all of scum tells attempt at painting this like something else but tech work there.
Saying that you don't have a scum read is surely a big scum tell. Scums do not need scum reads because they already have the information that tells them who is part of there alignment and who isn't. Pushing a mislynch and slinking into the shadow is bad, but not giving out scum reads with sufficent explanation is much worse.
SpyreX wrote:Props on "Ohh that's a good post but he's still scum".
Just because a person makes a good post does not mean that the person cannot be scum. When I do reads, I look at the content and see if it resembles more of a scum play or more of a town play. To do this, I look at the magnitude and frequency of the scum/town tells and determind my read from there. If the person is the scummiest, I will vote for that person unless someone else scummier comes up.

I shot him.
Absolutely hated this choice of kill. xvart was declared a town read by a majority of people and was a valueable asset to town. With your kill, you wasted it on someone that could have continued to help the town. The wording of this post doesn't give me good feelings either.
XScorpion wrote:Seeing as how no one gave me suggestions for who to shoot, I took this as one. I agreed with Equinox that the hammer seemed scummy.
This explanation sucks. I don't see how xvart's hammer was scummy enough to warrant a vig kill. Had he quick hammered someone at the beginning of yesterday, then this would be understandable. But we were litterally hours away from the deadline and No Lynching then would have been horrible. Also, xvart did express suspicion on Robocopter87 before the deadline so he still hammered one of his suspects.
Regarding hiphop's #500: It doesn't convince me that XScorpion can't be scum, but it does open up a possibility of XScorpion-town. This also helps me agree with hiphop in where we should No Lynch.
Regarding lynching: I don't think we should lynch today. If we are going to lynch today, as today is probably Mylo, we should be absolutely confident that a person will flip scum. Another reason why I want to No Lynch today is because even if we hit scum today, we're going to have to No Lynch anyway. Assuming a three scums set-up, if no lynch today, tomorrow, given a three scums set-up, we have a 42.50% chance of hitting scum. Lynching scum today and no lynching tomorrow will give us a 40.00% chance of hitting scum the following day.
Basically, I want town to have the best chance of winning this game and lynching scum tomorrow will give us the best chance at us lynching scum.
After everyone has claimed, I will give out my reads on everyone based on what has happened and the claims.
So scum, here are are our Pr's. Take your best shot.
