If you are willing to wait, I can get some analysis going.
I apologize. Once again, I became intimidated by the game.
Things you said last time you were scum: this. I'm serious--I've never seen you get "intimidated by the game" when you were town. You were quiet, you asked questions, you were a bit passive... but you never, never tried to make yourself look foolish.
This is a recap of BYOR 1.
For now, my vote is on Pandarsenic for pressure.
Magmadeath for inactivity.
Leafsnail for being all over the place.
dorf for lack of scumhunting
Additional: this is incredibly scummy. It's a "wide-prep" technique. You FoS/vote people for almost no reason, so that you can prepare a series of lynches/attacks. You never actually have to do anything, just votehop your way to a win.
Further, has anyone actually looked at these reasons? They're shit. I know you. You play much better than this.
... And even more, "Vote on Pandarsenic for pressure?" What pressure? You didn't actually press him at all.
You're going through the motions, not playing the game.
He was concerned that people were dismissing his votes as sheepish. Scum could have just rolled with it. He felt that his vote meant something and has been trying to prove it. Besides, he has legitimate concerns.
Bayer's your partner, huh? He gets overexcited about getting called out for simultaneous bandwagoning AND buddying, and proceeds to OMGUS anyone who might have possibly gotten involved. Of course you defend him... because though ExKirby was playing oddly, Bayer's "concern about his vote" totally vindicates him.
There probably is one other scum somewhere in the tangle of active players. What amazes me is that people widely ignore dorf. He is rather obvious as a scum. So there therefore needs to be a scumbuddy in the herd here who tries to divert attention to other people. You'd for example be a good candidate for this, Vector. Assuming my theory is correct. But that's just a theory thrown out since you haven't really dropped many scumtells, so you're innocent in my book.
SirBayer looks like a punching bag to me here. And then there are the people who voted eduren and didn't do anything once he returned now. Once again, you are in that crowd, Vector. You voted eduren for lurking, he returned, you jump onto the next lurker - me. That isn't really an impression of being a townie as you are avoiding active scumhunting.
So, Vector, who do you think is scum - and why!
You... I... what...
I voted Eduren for lurking. He proceeded to splash scummitude everywhere, but I was studying for a midterm so I didn't have time to go all WoT on his ass. Then I called you out, because you'd been quiet and non-postish for a while.
You sound distinctly like you're overreacting and trying to play "pin the scumtell on the Vector."
Who do I think is scum?
Eduren. Meta, his play techniques, his going through the motions, his response to my calling him out, his not showing up until he had
three votes on him, his guarding SirBayer.
SirBayer. He's been flipping the hell out over relatively minor accusations and acting extremely self-preservational.
And now, the set of people I'm not sure about and need to think more on:
Errol? You flipped the hell out over my asking you to stop lurking. That puts a distinct number of scum-points on your card, no matter how townie I thought you were acting before.
Pandarsenic? Hasn't been around for a few days. I don't trust that.
Leafsnail? Also hasn't been around much...
MagmaDeath? ALSO LURKING.
So, in other words, half the town is lurking and half the town is active. I'm willing to bet that after this Ridiculously Long Day ends we'll get some more activity, but for now I'm feeling distinctly uncomfortable.
