Bah, I posted the second half of the post, but abandoned the answer to Web:

Webadict: I skipped over to JTF because my other points were more theoretical in nature.  I believe you and Pandarsenic to be scum, but he seems like the most likely candidate for the nonce.  I've only got one vote to use on someone, after all.
Well, that's 2 right there. Not sure how you got either of those, neither, and jumping to JanusTwoface despite believing one of those two are scum is incredibly scummy, given that you're trying to push a case instead of actually ascertaining your claim that one of those two are scum.

And, because you have no real evidence, I'm really waiting to hear what you have to say about EITHEr of those claims that those three are scum, especially because somehow I'm scum and forsaken is not.

What kind of reaction is that, eh? Is this normal for you? Perhaps you seem to think that being on forsaken's side is somehow easier to swallow? I don't see it at all. forsaken is being rather obvious, and he has yet to defend himself.

Well I'd prefer not to die, if only because it will cause the town to lose a day voting a townie, but I understand how day 1 is and someone needs to go down so we can get some information tonight.

But seeing as there's already a bandwagon on me just for defending myself and some sarcasm, I guess I'm done for. :)
You never once defended yourself. You basically said, "LOLWUT?" to everything, passing all votes on you as jokes, as per Org did in Paranormal 4. Or 5. Or something. And that's why I'm voting you. You didn't defend yourself once. So, you're going to die.

Hard to defend when you don't give a reason. What you want me to say? I said I'm not scum. Doesn't matter though, you guys always do this.

Oh, for crying out loud.  Do you see this, folks?  He's trying to group me with Forsaken in a sort of anti-buddying maneuver.  Further, there's this silly attempt to get me to question my normalcy, or something... way to paint me funky colors, Web.

Additionally, nice use of slang to ingratiate yourself.  It's so cute when you try to pass yourself off as innocent.


I've got no bloody clue about Forsaken1111, doodabuddy.  Either he's fooling around or he's RiAing, and I can't determine which... so for now, I'm addressing what I can address, rather than getting trapped in the center ring antics.  I don't have any real evidence, so I'm trying to gather real evidence.  Starting with JTF.

Would it have been better if I'd put my attack on JTF on top, then mentioned why I think you and Pandarsenic are scum?  Or is the real problem just that you two happen to be on that list, and it makes you uncomfortable?

I saw it, so I wrote it.  I'm going to keep watching you until I'm certain, and then either you two can hang or you can help.  It all depends on your behavior.

"Refuge in Audacity."  Scum act crazy in an effort to make people think "He's so scummy that he can't be scum!"

I think you're all trying much too hard to put a label to me, and it's blinding you from what happened. They made very silly, baseless attacks and I responded with sarcasm because you cannot effectively defend yourself against an attack made without any logic behind it. If sarcasm makes me scum, fine. Vote me and see how wrong you were, waste a day for the town and let the scum get a free shot in.

Good point.
Er... did you just say someone you think is scum has a good point against you?  In fact, you don't seem to be pushing webadict at all.

Lame, defence is lame.  Aren't you even going to pretend you care about finding scum?

He's certainly implying a link, Vector, but I don't see why this is a scumtell, or why you would base a case on it.  You've stated you have no real evidence, yet you seemed to have marked three people as scum.  Why?

Dodging accusations and derailing discussion is ALWAYS scummy, forsaken. And this AtE isn't helping.

Well, whatever. This whole thing seems pointless if I'm to be crucified over a joke. I'm being attacked for not defending myself, but the attacks have no reason or fact behind them and thus nothing to defend against.

Keep hurling vaporous accusations, I'm sure the weak-willed will fall into line and the scum will win again.

No.  He's doing this the scum-way, not the town-way.  He is implying a link, rather than exposing it.  He is not coming out and actually saying things aloud; he's trying to screw with underground processes, not only to group me with forsaken, but also to separate me from the rest of the group and convince me to stand down.

Why would I base a case on this?  Because this is how you play good scum.  It is not how you play good town; it's how you play good scum.

Good town doesn't need to separate its opponents from the crowd and subtly identify them as a target.  Good town does not need to make subtle connections between an attacker and an anti-town player.  The connections should be blatant.

I have "no real evidence" but what falls into my theory of diction and phraseology.  Since I don't share minds with anyone here, all I can do is say is that it's there, and that I'm going to keep watching until I see something so obvious that I can build a reasonable case in others' eyes.

I have made a conjecture which I am almost certain is true.  However, I am waiting to make that conjecture into a cornerstone of mathematics until I have a proof.

I already told you. Forsaken1111 is scum via the Org Theory of Scummitude.

That, and his general behavior toward anything.

According to the theory that you didn't say you were Town when accused of being Scum, which has since been disproved by you (Only because you were informed about the scumtell.)

Hence, I've named it the Org Theory of Scummitude, which implies that newbie scum will NOT say they aren't scum (Or that they're town) if they have never heard of the Org Theory of Scummitude.
