4maskwolfOkay, there are a few things I want to answer in this post. The first is this: Yes, it is scumhunting. He also did nothing scummy except vote for a scum. He just had the misfortune of being the first to respond to your questions. [1] Also, I notice that you left MOWE out of the question list that time: care to explain?
I was not blindly following NQT: I put no stock whatsoever in his "method". I don't think that post count means much, as clever scum could manipulate that as easily as everything else. I already admitted that because it was day 1, I merely skimmed the last part of the conversation before making my assessment. However, upon closer inspection and getting to an actual computer, I realized that Solymr had said precious little to warrant an attack like that and had answered the questions reasonably, by my metric.
The multi-post is called Posting while Tired. [2] You are on the dwarf fortress forums, you know that I post things when I think of them, not caring about the number of posts in a row by me there are.
[1] The reason that MOWE was left out of the questions was because I had done so
intentionally to see if they are actually paying attention. It's common knowledge that scum tend to pay less attention during games because they already know who is town, and don't have to look for clues. Why is it that you're pointing it out? Do you not feel that MOWE can answer for themselves?
[2] I don't pay much attention to people's posting habits, but this is a game where people watch for that sort of thing, as part of their methods of finding scum. Yeah, it
is easy to manipulate, and it's also easy to try and rationalize it while you're doing it.
notquitethereeveryone give your reads!
I'm still awaiting your responses to my questions, NQT.
But I'll give you my reads.
4maskwolf- I thought he was town, but Now I'm starting to dislike his answers and his tone. Not sure.
notquitethere- You seem to be trying, and giving logical explanations, but you haven't answered my questions. Guessing town, for now.
Caz- Hasn't been helpful at all as far as I can tell. Slight scum lean.
Superblackcat- Not here, null.
Darkpaladin109- Trying to stay hidden? I'm guessing scum/noob.
Solymr- I don't like the way he's been acting, or his tone. I don't think he killed DS, but I still don't trust him.
Tiruin-
Hasn't been here enough. Can't say. After reading some more, she seems to have come back in full force. I'm saying town lean.
MyOwnWorstEnemy- Haven't seen anything incriminating yet. Still deciding.
+!!scientist!!+- I don't like the general demeanor of him, slight scum lean.
CazCaz.
Answer my questions and get in here.
SuperblackcatRL stuff from you. I'll get back to you.
Darkpaladin109You.
You also need to answer my questions.
Solymrcheese:
Don't think I've forgotten you either. I suspect you of trying to defend IG by pressuring and attacking me.
While you suspect me, maybe you'd like to answer my multitude of questions? Or would you rather we just drop those, and have me go hide somewhere to "save face"? Your call.

Tiruin: You're the Bad, and the Good is dead. Someone claims Union General, and says that another person is a Confederate, but they don't get lynched by making the argument that they are the Ugly. Instead, the person claiming Union General gets lynched, and is proven to have told the truth. What do you do, and why?
I flail in joy like a muppet.
Opportunistic semblance to personal reaction aside, I am a Union SK. I do as I said above, but to myself IRL and not in thread-post. I will..well, depending on the situation I either delve into it and check on what the rest are doing, leave those claimants to stew among their fates and act as a bystander-prosecutor or base my proceedings on what had just happened.
I...do not work well with general statements (pun not intended), but require a specific situation.
[1] Query: Why pull a neutral role in sucha situation? What were you thinking about me when you asked me this?
Mr. Cheese
Tiruin: You need to stop delaying, Borscht or not. What are your reads so far? And if you would explain the reasons for your reads?
I fail to make a miswording of something funny. As for reads-they were all neutral at the time of my last post with subtle curiosity regarding IG on the skim, NQT for his 'self-claim' as an introductory post, Interest at Solymyr for being new and able to explain himself thoroughly--all neutral reads, but all curious.
[2] Meaning: No I have no read, and I do apologize for my effort. I shouldn't have been weak. I should've posted here. I am sorry.
Reason @above: Skimming, yet I also connected the cause to effect, though my reads are more influenced if I put my weight behind them (or if what I observe their actions are, have good 'emphasis' into them).
[3] And for this delaying note, I do see that you put that as a subtle-aggressive-prod, yes? I was not delaying, however.
[1] I wanted to see your answer, no particular thought went through my mind. What sort of information do you think could be gleamed from such a question?
[2] I don't think I need to even get on you for this. It's blatantly obvious. I would ask "why aren't you thinking more into this?" but you haven't been here.
[3] Yes, you are correct. Delaying or not, you need to get into the game. You can apologize later.
And as I go through the thread while typing this up, you seem to have returned quite acceptably. Thank you.
Mr. Cheese
Investigationwhatnow?
Out attempts on discovering TDS's murdering. Scumhunting.
After reading through everything, I realize now the extent of the hard times you are going through. I apologize if anything I said to you above is taken as rude or offensive. I'd rather not change it because I write these as I go along through the thread, and so they're my thoughts on things as I go through it, so it's fresh in my mind. But if it seems mean, I'm sorry.
MyOwnWorstEnemyMastahcheese:
I think it's quite suspicious that TDS was night killed and he didn't seem like a threat to the scum. I think that's a big thing. It makes me wonder.
As for him not having any reads on anyone, it's understandable. D1 for me is just mass confusion.
Would you care to explain exactly what it is that you're wondering about? What conclusions does it lead you too?
Also, you seem to have failed to notice that I
didn't give you a question in the post where I asked everyone a question. In fact, Wolf even mentioned this, and you
still don't seem to notice! Are you reading everything, or just the stuff with your name attached?
This isn't the first time I've pointed out your lack of observation.

Mastahcheese:
MyOwnWorstEnemy: You're a Union Soldier, and someone is going after you, despite not having real evidence, yet people are still agreeing with them. What do you do? And why?
I'd point out the flaws in my attacker's logic and go after them.
Good answer, but you failed to state why. How much attention are you really paying here?
So tell me again,
MOWE, how much attention are you
really paying here? Or do you already know all the answers you need?
+!!scientist!!+You want to know something?
I actually forgot you were playing in this.
That's not a good thing.
I have questions that need answering.
