Did you really think I was scum, when it came down to it?

I thought you looked scummish but there were two other scummier players aka ray and toxic so i kinda pushed you aside. But then ajolin really annoyed me and i thought deserved to get voted off I actually didn't care if he was scum or not.
It's a sin to tell a lie.

I thought Ray was scum at first, but I have to be honest, he did a good job of putting me off his trail by defending me after that first quick hammer. I was suspicious of voided for a long time. Maybe 3 or 4 of his posts in. He seemed to be null leaning scum for the whole time since my first read. I only really thought Toxic was scum because he set me up to die, and even when Ray put down his vote Ray still had me thinking he was just convinced town that disregarded my post. The only reason I knew DX was town, or anything at all, was because if he was scum he would have just hammered me when he had the chance. There was literally no reason for a scum not to do that, and at least some reason for a town to do that. In any case, I really want to say Ray played his role pretty well. It was unexpected when I saw that he was scum, even though it was a bit obvious in the end.

When you self-voted, I actually started writing a post that said...

From a scum perspective:

don't you feel silly now?

Even when it looks like all is lost and you are going to be lynched, keep pulling evidence and making cases. You never know when you might find something that will make people believe you are town.

And now, off I go to read so I can give personalized advice.

I realize that voting so quickly during lylo isn't the best thing to do, I was aware of that when I cast the vote, but ajolin seemed suspicious enough for me. I could see a noob-town pulling two quick hammers,
I guess
, but it just didn't feel right. I still don't understand how he can pull such a God awful player like that and not even care. Simply. Amazing.

ajolin wrote:"Townies don't pull two quick hammers like that. They just don't." WIFOM. Maybe town would do it because you would assume no scum would be dumb enough to double quickhammer. Maybe scum would do it for the same reason. Assuming somebody "just wouldn't do something" no matter what is flat out wrong. There's a lot of people who would never do something ever, and then they get put in a circumstance where it would be the best possible option. Never say "never."

It was also apparent to me by these two posts that ajolin didn't care about the game at all and was going to make no reasonable attempt to keep himself from getting lynched in the case that he was actually a town-aligned player. It was a really bad play, and it ruined the game.

I was starting to get suspicious of you, RayFrost, when you let ajolin off on his first quick-hammer, even though I kinda agreed with you at first. By the time ajolin hammered the second time, though, I figured that he was either the most arrogant scum I've ever seen or that the game was ruined fro town at that point, anyway.

I couldn't agree with these two paragraphs more.

The initial letting him off was actually proper on my part, as it was a sincere mistake as per not knowing proper play.
