Okay, because I'm rather short on time right now, I'll just ask again.

KCDA: Am I scum for the same reason that DCJ is town?

Kcd, it would be a lot easier to trust your reads and follow your bandwagons if you gave any reasons at all for thinking what you think. Been saying this all along. You are hopeless.

Thank god. Welcome, izak. Take your time catching up, since we're already waiting for NS to catch up. Might be interesting to see who can catch up faster.

Huh, what are you implying? You're implying kcd admitted he's scum but then changed his mind or something?

UNVOTE: SGRaaize; after rereading that episode, you do not appear scummy due to my main "catch" on you. Mostly because of how your opinion could have been affected by Muffin's contribution, which I missed before and was good even if Kcd couldn't save himself. Don't think the support points on you add up to anything on their own. Very laconic, but you have me leaning quiet town. More discussion from you would be helpful.

NS, not even reading back on you in earnest yet, you've been acting extremely aloof and scummy in recent times and in my memory, while remaining ever-present. I'm waiting for you to suddenly show up with a big wall of awesomeness to prove everyone wrong about you, but you are either playing at something or just can't muster up the effort. I really don't get it. And the way you jumped on Kcd for the mishap on pgs. 13/14 (the thing I was just talking about with SGR) seemed like too easy of a thing to really jump on someone about.

I'm more than ready to hear more from you.

Not admitted, but if his surprise sounded genuine, it could have been because he actually did slip up for one reason or another.

Surprise, shock, embarrassment, whatever you want to call it when you realize your dick has been flopping in the wind through your zipper all day.

Sure, you proved it afterward using logic and mathematics, but your intuitive impression was that there are definitely three scum. Whereas I don't think anyone else had that intuitive impression based on the setup. Unless somehow you are some kinda robot who understands statistics immediately how the rest of us know that bananas are yellow.

Take, for instance, how you had to prove it by showing everyone the math.

Okay, so let me get this straight. You're voting NS, at least in part, for how he jumped on kcda for his alleged scumslip. But at the same time you're implying with the above post that town wouldn't assume there'd be three scum. So is kcda's post a scumslip or not? There's really not a lot of middle ground here.

Did I imply that town wouldn't assume there'd be three scum? I said almost no player would assume there'd be three scum without calculating the statistics beforehand, which I don't think anyone did. It doesn't even look like Kcd did it beforehand, which makes his assumption stand out. Basically, nobody agreed with him until he whipped out the calculator to show people. But that's supporting his statement after the fact. There's also Muffin's point here:
zMuffinMan wrote:Actually there are a few ways you could know it without being scum. But I wouldn't read too deeply into that being anything more than an assumption.


Basically, I can't tell whether Kcd slipped because he's scum or a special role, or whether it was just a mistake. I don't think anybody can, unless there's something I'm missing. It's weird, but it's not something I would decide his alignment on. NS attacking it despite the fact that it's not really consequential is scummy.

By the way, Amor, what are your feelings on other players? You've been tunneling me since the beginning of the game, why not take a break?

Abel, you'll find that the things that seem inconsequential at first blush can win or lose the game.
