This post is going to be a bit rushed. On the other hand, I have survived TEST APOCALYPSE (two major tests *and* a missed provincial, all over two days), so my schedule should be free-ish for the next while—i.e. the rest of the game, unless it drags out for as long as VM did. I don't think that will happen.
Still looking for EP and Snow Dwarf's reasoning for voting DoomChild.
(I couldn't find the original question--I'm assuming this is it.)
IIRC, I was voting him because he kept attacking lurkers near-exclusively, even after being told multiple times that it was a scummy thing to do. After a really brief skim of his recent posts, it looks like he's stopped? I'm going to
unvote and reevaluate, for now.
Hector13: I am working on a response to that giant post you directed at me, but I thought I should post something before the end of the day. You addressed two specific questions to me a second time in
this post, so I'm focusing on them for now.
1. You honestly have no inkling either way (town or scum) on any other player in the game?
I don't think I ever said this. It was more that I felt I didn't have a strong enough read to answer a question about "[my] strongest read", even if some of my reads were technically "strongest" in one direction or the other. Also, again: both of my main suspicions had recently failed to pan out, one for an impossible-to-predict reason.
2. As the most active player in the game, why haven't you done the most scumhunting, as opposed to "as much as everyone else"??
So, you're saying that because I did dull stuff like aid newbies (no ICs were around, at the time) and bug lurkers, I should have also done extra scumhunting? I don't think that's how it works. In an ideal world, I would have had enough theories/hunches/whatever to attack everyone, but I didn't, so I did a more regular amount of scumhunting. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that it was still more than most people had done, though.
snow dorf lynch: I don't know if he's scum. To me, he reads as "bumbling newbie". As for whether he's a bumbling town newbie or a bumbling scum newbie: I don't really know. Either is possible, I think, and I'm not really caught up with his more recent posts.
Extending: If other people really want to, I don't mind. I'm not sure how much we'd get out of it, but we did get a replacement, I guess? Not sure if they'll be able to contribute anything, but there's no harm in giving them the chance; also,
snow dorf was recently prodded for inactivity, so he may not have had a chance to respond. Extend.
