Okay, so, by popular request I am going to post here why I believe that Leafsnail is exhibiting scummy behavior. So at first Leafsnail is digging into Flandre by trying to hype up a simple, honest, and innocent RVS question as some manner of obfuscated rolefishing question. Which, really, I think was totally uncalled for here. I think it's a scummy tactic to take an RVS question and try and blow it up into some big elaborate plan for someone to be cleverly rolefishing from the start of the game. Now, in this case, Leafsnail would have been better served to have just given an offhand answer were he town, and continue on with the RVS. But, by trying to make an issue out of it, it smacks of picking an early and easy mislynch target under the guise of the question asker, in this case Flandre, as some manner of rolefishing scum. Obviously, because scum would want to know who has an overly-powerful role so as that they could kill off that target first (or at least nullify them somehow). But, really, this is a poor response, because this is webadict we're talking about as the mod, and would you really expect there to be a low overall power level here? He stated from the start that we should expect this game to be crazy. And then Leafsnail is going after Toaster about a simple side comment as if it has some big, significant meaning to this game, when, really dude, it was just a side comment. It's like Leafsnail is flailing about trying to catch someone in his mislynch net early on in the game. Which is funny, because then he makes a side joke about Darvi being in the game. Yeah. Pot, kettle, black there Leafsnail. But instead of voting Flandre, Leafsnail then voted Dariush on some bullshit meta reason that he's not aggressive enough. It's the goddamn RVS, Leafsnail. Maybe he needs time to ramp up the goatfucking engines? So then Leafsnail gets all snotty defensive against Zrk2 about answering Flandre's question and tries to counter the WIFOM attack against him from Zrk2. While still not answering the question, because he obviously has something to hide. Leafsnail softballs a response to Toaster (scumbuddy much maybe?) and keeps poking at Dariush, obviously to set up for a larger attack later. Because, really, arguing about anything RVS is just grasping for straws at this point. Leafsnail continues to poke at Dariush about getting the ball rolling, while not getting the ball rolling himself. It's obvious by this point he's going to be tunneling into Dariush like a dentist in a cavity. So then after I've been posting for a bit, Leafsnail is trying to position himself as an upstanding townie by telling everyone to ignore what I'm saying. Which is clever, because if he was a poorer scum player, he'd latch on to the crap I was doing at that point. But, instead, he sees an opportunity to install in the other players' minds that he's town and looking out for the other townies. Leafsnail then goes back to Flandre, starting in on some bullshit attack about how he could only know if the game would be decided by powerful roles if he had a powerful role himself. Which is bullshit, because you could easily come to that conclusion by circumstantial evidence present so far, notably that webadict said that this was going to be a crazy game (which would be hard to do if there were either barely any power roles or very weak power roles). Whatever Leafsnail's answer would be to Flandre's question, it would be some serious WIFOM to try and draw a conclusion about Leafsnail's power level from said answer. So then, to further the "look at how townie I can be" point, Leafsnail is calling out to any vigilantes or serial killers who want to pretend to be vigilantes to feel free to kill me. Way to throw a bone to any potential serial killers as to how to disguise their presence, Leafsnail. Also, way to put yourself out there telling everyone how you're going to keep the town free from distraction. Seriously, the only reason to say those things is to improve your appearance, which you seem to be keen on making sure is as close to model townie as possible. Normal town members don't give as much of a shit about appearance as they do scumhunting, so players overly concerned about image must be trying to portray a false image. Leafsnail's then getting on Zrk2's case about not following up on voting him, while not following up on his own voting of Dariush! Maybe you should take your own advice, scumbag. Moving on then to something about falseclaiming that I'm not sure what the hell he was getting at, and then continuing to pretend he's a goddamn superhero by stepping in and being all hey look at me, I'm identifying threats to the town! Do what I say and don't vote the obvjester because I'm town! Dariush picks up on Leafsnail's crap by now. So then Leafsnail got in one little fight and his mom got scared and said he's moving in with his auntie and unble in bel-air. He whistled for a cab and when it came near the license plate said fresh and had dice in the mirror. If anything he could say that tis cab was rare but he thought nah, forget it yo hom to bel-air. Leafsnail pulled up to a house about seven or eight and yelled to the cabbie yo homes, smell you later. He looked at his kingdom he was finally there to sit on his throne as the price of bel-air. Now Leafsnail is back to responding to Zrk2 and continuing on about how all rolefishing is bad, but neglecting to consider that rolefishing would be very beneficial to a doctor role, who could protect a cop if they were rolefished out. Not to mention that this game is so role heavy anyway, even if you did rolefish someone you have no idea what everyone else has. Also pictured: Leafsnail subtly accusing Zrk2 of chainsawing. And then going on about townies not lying which I think is a tired creed by now, because there are plenty of good town roles that would not want to be discovered. Lying to cover your ass from the scumteam finding out you're a cop or a doc (or really anything else that would hurt/hamper the scumteam) really shouldn't be an issue, in my opinion. So then we're off to defending ourself against Dariush's vote by trying to cover his obvious self-townie-painting. Implying you're town doesn't make you scum if you're implying you're town by scumhunting, not just telling people you're town. God only knows why Leafsnail was almost beliving my lol-worthy gambit back there though. I propose that he didn't start in on me there just to remain consistant with his previous stance on my actions, and that going after me would make him appear less townlike.
So, in conclusion, Leafsnail is most certainly scum.
