I have had decently strong town reads on Kop, random, and Aristo for a while now. That leaves FA_Q2, Formerfish, havingfitz, and massive. I was starting to reconsider Formerfish, but then I noticed this post;
Formerfish wrote:Massive, what were you looking at when you voted? The last page has a vote count that shows viking at l-1 as well.
This post seems to convey some mild frustration with massive for accidentally hammering. If Formerfish was scum, and partners with viking, then he probably would not be so obvious in his frustration over the viking lynch. This makes a lot more sense coming from Formerfishtown that preferred a Kop lynch and genuinely believed that viking was town.
havingfitz is also town for asking if random shot last night. If he was scum then he would have probably figured out that random no longer had his shot - either he would have read random's posts more carefully or his partner would have informed him.
Sure, both of these points could be defended by WIFOM, but I really don't think that Formerfish/havingfitz are being tricky right now.
That means the scum are FA and massive.
Vote: FA_Q2
I must disagree with almost the whole of the latter part of this post.
I believe we are looking at Fitz and FF as scum.
I reread all of D3 just now and noticed some things.
FF only comes out to comment when A) proddodging B) his name is mentioned C) he finds a reason to take the heat off of Viking and put it on Random, Kop, or myself.
He did sound annoyed at the hammer, but how does that absolve him?
He stated multiple times that Random was still his biggest scum read but didn't vote him. He then, when voting Kop, said "well if we can't lynch Random, this is a good alternative." (Obvious paraphrasing here) even though Random was. It's almost like he wanted someone else to stert the counterwagon so he could blend in on it more easily.
And I still read his question about me being the real push behind handcuffing Random both a big leap and unfounded. He was trying to paint me as scummy even though it was not I who was the biggest push.
VOTE: FormerFish
As for Fitz, he started today with an extremely unhelpful post. How does NK speculation on why there was no kill help us in the least??
And Wickedest, I call bullshit on him missing that post by Random.
Look at his ISO on Viking. He went post by post to make him look as "meh" as possible. He made it hard to follow and asked almost no questions. His verdict after it was "well, Random is still a better lynch."
Now look at his Random one. The language is damning. He makes it easy to follow, strings things together, provides links and asks stuff. It looks to me like he was trying really hard to get a case anywhere but on Viking.
He also wrote it up 20 posts or so after Random confirmed his lack of shot.
If he had actually looked at Random rather than simply trying to demonize him, he would have noticed it. He went waaay into Viking and came out with nothing, yet without reading Random cherrypicked what he could spin against him.
This, right here, is your scum team.
Let's do this!
@Random:
Why FA for your vote?
@Wicked:
Do you have an actual case on FA and Massive or just a non-case for FF and Fitz?
Massive, after yesterday, I am townreading.
This sudden jump to conclusions seems really rash and I am losing some of the townlean I had on you.
