@Flandre You say that I need a genuine argument to vote for jc. Did you not read my second post?

Sure jc, I voted for you because you seem pretty shifty, you change your views a lot, constantly accuse people, deflect questions with complaints about noobiness, and it seemed like as soon as you started getting some pressure you wanted to leave the game.

I have, but only on my second read-through, and even then out of order. I attacked what I thought was a lack of a proper response (which IronyOwl even cited a bit later), and only discovered your reasoning at about the time jc's 'noob shield' was brought into question. I erred when I bundled your argument in with that, and to me it appeared to be borrowing those points against jc. I did not mean to ruffle your feathers unnecessarily, but I now have a read on you, at the very least.

@billybobfred: that question was: Is your current vote on bd lynching or is it still pressure? Also, ive noticed you havnt been asking a lot of questions recently. Why?
I answered that question. Admittedly, my answer was "I'm not sure, definitely one of those", but it was an answer.

As for your new question, I haven't been able to think of any that don't suck. I thought my first three were "kind okay i guess" at worst, but they were apparently shitty enough to get me into a long circular argument that still hasn't really been resolved and probably never provided anything useful at any point.

on a completely unrelated note, i am starting to really dislike the way bay12 plays mafia. it is probably objectively more effective than the ways i do like but urrgh so stressful. >.<

@Webadict Do you think Vector is scum? Or are you just suspicious?
Vector is scum. Whether I think so or not is pointless if I KNOW she is.

@Simple Do you think jc is scum?
I think he made enough scummy moves to see reason behind other people votes on him but that's not enough for me. And i think you could get answer for this question just from looking at votes : person i put my vote on is the person i think is scum. Not that answer like that would be useful to anybody.

@FlandreWhy are you so defensive of jc?
He just happens to be the one people are  most suspicious of; where that person is, the scum will be also. In siding with the prospective lynch victim, I can attack his accusers in the hopes of gathering valuable intel.
This should be more productive than asking sterile questions, anyway.

So you believe scum would only attack person with most votes ? That's pretty silly assumption don't you think ? Also wouldn't that tactic be useless if the attacked person was scum ?

Would you mind to share your opinion on urist then ?

I think it would make sense for the scum to attack the townie who has attracted the most suspicion, to ensure that one of his own would not be lynched that night. You are right that this tactic would not work if the suspect were scum, but I do not think my reasoning was silly.

As for my read on Urist, I noticed that he did not prioritize self-defense over an inquiry on what appeared to be my protection for someone else (a scum-hunting gesture). It was not much--which is why I did not bother mentioning it--but it was enough to satisfy me. I do not think Urist is scum.

I'm here.  Sorry for all the crap.  My life sort of shook itself up.

I'm not scum, by the way, and from now on I intend to prove it.  Don't copy me, guys.  I've been playing dreadfully.

Rereading now.

You did nothing wrong; I just hope things work out better for you!
Also, Wuba apparently knows that you are scum. Now all I need is popcorn...
