(WARNING: WALLPOST AHEAD)
So here's my take on band claiming:
Since PRs are determined based on the songs of the band that the first player in a player slot picked, having original players claim their bands seems like a very subtle way for scum to figure out who might have a PR. It's not necessarily going to help them a whole lot, but I'm fairly sure that scum-ToD would put a fair amount of time into analyzing something like that. (Yes, I see Gaoth 21. No, it doesn't convince me that it's a good idea.)
It really doesn't matter whether replacements like me claim bands or not, since it doesn't reflect on our potential roles at all.
Furry's dayvig attempt shows that he's never played in a game with a real daykill. Daykills don't end the day, that's why they're called daykills instead of forcelynches.
And considering that he's trying to play it as confirming him as town... yeah, not good at all. (Has Furry read the Storm of Swords game that wrapped up a month or two ago?)
Juls' daykill, OTOH, comes off as very slightly town - I see town as a hair more likely than scum to try to pull a fake-DK that soon after a may-or-may-not-be-real DK (and although the "I was reaction fishing" claim later makes me *twitch* a bit, I don't know how much that's me thinking it's scummy and how much that's just it being one of my pet peeves; besides, I'd expect Juls to know how to interpret any results she got, so I'll let it slide).
Powerrox 72 feels off.
Furry 136 wrote:@Ani - I just want to make sure, but your case is
1) I faked a daykill and kept the act up
2) I am trying to look town
For the record, 2) is a perfectly legitimate reason to vote somebody, especially with the qualifier ani adds in 148. I've caught scum with it before. I've caught scum on page 2 with it before.
DH 151 is
-worthy.
Pb 186: Need I remind you that "scum would never do X" is a decent reason for scum to do X? I'll have the waiter come bring you another bottle of wine.
188: ...If you're town, you've got some pretty impressive cognitive dissonance going.
Seraphim 204 wrote:people who think Furry is scum: any sort of theory that involves Furry being scum and doing what he just did must also involve ani being scum with him.
Disagree (duh). Furry-scum could easily pull the "sure, I would [fake a daykill] as town" card.
nintendo 207: I'm starting to remember why I thought you were scum before I got my role PM. 207, etc. are horrendous.
epm 261 I can definitely read as a scumslip (see diddin 276), although there definitely is an alternate interpretation. Odds are high that epm and diddin are not scum together.

...then play better or replace into games. How is that a problem for any of us to solve/care about?
gorilla 383: quit lurking
Also, "2scum4scum" is a dangerous path to walk down. Steer clear of it if you possibly can.
Groundsel 404: Um, I don't think Furry was actually getting a whole lot of towncred for it. Could just be my imagination talking, though.
---------------------------
So reads:
Gaoth: Leaning scum, largely on gut.
AntB: who? Null, maybe leaning scum a tiny bit, but I need more to work with.
DemonHybrid: Town, I suspect.
Regfan: (Oh right, you're in DEFCON 3 along with gorilla. Sorry for leaving you out earlier.
) Null.
diddin: On play alone, null, possibly leaning scum; however, less scum than epm, so likely town IMO.
Parama: Null. Nothing to work with.
Parabollocks: Scum.
Pine: Null.
CSL: Leaning town, though I'm not convinced about post 5 being a townslip
as much as some of you are
.
Powerrox93: Leaning scum, but it's not a strong read.
nintendoaddict1: Scum. Post 207 onward - his terrible attack on Seraphim and his heavy AtE.
Seraphim: Leaning town.
Furry: Scum. You're not confirmed town until a power role comes forward with a result clearing you, scum attack you in a way that is Obviously Not Bussing, or you massively townslip like hohum in Open 180 (Nik knows what I'm talking about). None of those has happened, and trying to say you're conftown without a reason to believe you is baaaaaaaaaad.
Juls: Leaning town.
Nikanor: Town, though the fact that he's posting prolifically elsewhere but not here is giving me pause.
Trumpet of Doom: Godlike town.
Groundsel: Leaning town.
Cogito Ergo Sum: Null. He's playing similarly in another game I volunteered to /replace into, so I might be willing to give him townpoints for it, but not ATM.
evilpacman18: Scum trying hard to earn "no actual scum would
possibly
be that scummy, so he must not be scum" status. It ain't gonna work.
gorilla: Leaning town.
Or, to put them in categories: (There's no order within the categories, BTW.)

Retired from playing for the foreseeable future.
