The following post is what set me to scum on Andante. The initial votes intentions were to end RVS. I got what I wanted from that. The part I don't like though:In post 93, Klick wrote:
This doesn't read like how town structures their thoughtsIn post 79, Kowahbunga wrote:You know what? The vote originally was just a thought I had to do. I figured "hey, let's put a second vote on someone when i get to the game thread, see if that kills rvs dead or not" and I feel strongly, the game is going on now and RVS is way over. I don't know if it's entirely because of me, but I'll accept partial credit.
Now after reading all of Andante's response's to my, at the time, nothing vote. I can't see how any of their posts come from a town POV. And I am indeed currently scum reading them for this.
This reads like Kowah decided it looked best to progress to a scumread on Andante and added the depth and oomph afterwards
Is forcing out this read on me like what I did is scum motivated. How is it scum motivated to bring attention to yourself? Also the fact that they even say that joining another wagon would have been okay, just not them. I don't like any of it. And how would that post put me under the radar? Just such a wild case made from literally a vote and two other words.In post 36, Andante wrote:like, yall... anyone want to tell me this is town? Kow votes ME.. and dissapears, there were lots of others being voted! In my opinion, the Penguin wagon could've been more fun to join!! Who doesn't want to vote penguin? but the vote on me... idk who Kow is, but yall I'm so deadset on this being scum, you have no idea...
I literally asked Kow something too, I think Kow is avoiding us... you don't vote, say "hi everyone" then dissapear?? feels like scum forcing an opening post, hoping to fly under the radar
The response from Andante was more what I expect from someone being put to L1. This is way too much from way too little.-

Another thing I didn't like was being accused of "disappearing" - which maybe would have made sense if I didn't post for a few days, but this claim was made 3 hours after my vote. Which, unless my math is wrong, me "disappearing" for 1% of D1. My scum read on Andante just comes from the MASSIVE reaching they're doing to convince themselves and others that I'm scum.-

Andante has been bringing a lot of attention to himself
Do you feel like that's scum motivated?-

Wouldn't you agree though, that my vote is more out of place in a game of mafia than someone bringing attention to themselves because they believe they found scum? I don't think you can compare the two types of sore thumbs.In post 105, Klick wrote:

I expect to see nearly everyone at one point or another acting like Andante. But I don't expect them to make such an elaborate case against someone from at most a 4-word post.
Most expect a single random vote in RVS. I'd wager not as many expect an RVS vote on someone who already has one.
My vote was intended to create a conversation, and inadvertently made me scum read someone because of their response to it.-

I actually 100% agree with this but it's my first game back in years and it's tradition sooo *shrug*In post 42, Andante wrote:like, sure I don't fully get RVS/ what yall gain from it
This is exactly why I don't think we should bandwagon on anyone, and it's this exact reason that it's way too early to have three active bandwagons this close to lynching, less than 24 hours in. I should think that point's pretty obvious as to why it's bad. Scum (or even newer townies) can swoop in to try and convince everyone they were just following the line of thinking.In post 58, Taly wrote:cause reads D1 are usually built off arbitrary measurements of sincerity that are too subjective to be as generalized as they are and some argue that it informs scum who best to NK
No.
See above. Second question: Appropriate threshold is definitely less than half of the votes required to lynch. In this case, that's 3.In post 97, PenguinPower wrote:

I would argue that bringing attention to yourself is just as effective a tactic as trying to be in the background; in fact, in the past I tended to find the people who are the most talkative to be the most suspicious of all.In post 103, Kowahbunga wrote:

Simple. I was going off the current votecount as listed on page 4, and you're not there. As previously mentioned, I've been skimming since I've been at work all day (note to all: I'll be doing that a lot as I work a job that gives me time to look away for short bursts, but I still have quotas to meet).In post 116, Herta wrote:

Because throwing a net like that is very likely to catch one scum , it doesn't mean anything but gives players opportunity later on to say they always thought a player was scummy.
It is day 1, there is pretty much nothing anyone can do which should set off a real scum ping. Just go with the flow and wait till tomorrow. Doing otherwise will make me pay attention-
