I switched my vote because I thought red was more likely scum than BC and that if BC IS scum it'll be much more apparent by Day 2 than by Day 1. There wasn't much else to discuss with redFF and the bandwagon had taken off so much would you have preferred me to beat a dead horse? Do you fault him for not being the one who came up with the RedFF bandwagon? What is he supposed to say about it? He's been negative and critical and unhelpful and I don't like it at all. I'm not removing suspicion from BloodyC0bbler. He justified a couple of things (his lack of assurance, understandable on day 1) enough for me to move my vote for today and see what he brings to the table tomorrow. It's really that simple. I expect BC to be helpful and do more work and less complaining. I'm not by any means letting him off the hook. I even told him straight up that he needs to put up or die come Day 2.
I expected that from him today. I'm preparing myself for even more disappointment tomorrow.
There has been a shit-storm of things happening in this thread, and redFF was NOT the scummiest individual. Not by a long-shot. I mean, if you think so then cool I guess, but not by my standards (which are infamously low.) Certainly early on in the game, but not by lynch time.
UGH....this is so disappointing. Today has been a total wash. TOTAL.

I'd say that's considerably better than lynching BC and then having him flip ??? and not knowing jack shit about whether we got rid of a dangerous scum or one of the better townies in this game.
Sure, BC probably isn't the best townie ever but he's definitely better than 90% of the players in this game.
Red wasn't giving anyone headaches at the time of his lynch, thanks almost exclusively to you Bugs. Perhaps he would have come back with a different attitude and helped us nail some scum with his ability, assuming he was town. If he was scum, obviously it was a good day - but we really have no fucking idea. It was a wash Bugs. The fact that BC is alive only means he'll be able to manipulate me tomorrow into thinking he's town and win the game out from under me.

I basicly interpret his first post as "well guys, I read the cases on BC and THAT'S all you got? Seriously? And you're considering voting BC because of just that?" and goes on to say what he said in his 2nd and 3rd post. That's just so wtf. from sheerly how bad his play is I'd say he's more likely to be scum. He's posting less than what I saw him post in purgatory (which is good) but his posts have changed in demeanor enough that I think on meta basis alone I'd call him scum.
Meta Read by WBG = Ignore Vigorously

FUCK Jackal - I'd had myself convinced it was Thursday all day - your appearance in the thread has reminded me that it's not.
X(
Well, while you're here (smashing all my dreams), how about you help me out with something. Can YOU explain what is townie about BC's behavior/defenses that had everyone unwilling to lynch him? I'm not seeing it. All I see are a few angrily and hastily thrown together posts which doesn't really much indicate town to me, although it does indicate null as fuck to me which taken with his behavior the rest of the day seems incriminating enough....

What do you make of the no flip Syllo?

I think you might have too much faith in this town.
You say "waste". Are you assuming the power is one-shot or limited shots? Could this be a power we'll have to contend with until a certain mafia member is killed?

Also, are you sure it was a power and not some mechanic?

Why so many ants in your pants, Dr. H? It seems like you're boiling over but I've given you no reason to be so nervous.
Worried about the pressure? Certainly seems like it.
Going half the day saying 'Dude he can be this way regardless of his alignment', while true, constitutes being wishy-washy Bugs, whether you decided by lynch time to "change your mind" or not.
It doesn't seem like DocH is worried about pressure at all. It seems like you're trying to get him flustered.

Doc that this doesn't have to be a conspiracy thing - this is WBG's strategy regardless of his alignment as far as I'm aware - get someone flustered, see if they slip up (town)/call their reactions scummy (scum).

I probably wouldn't take those quotes to be 'general scum strategy' here...although, I haven't played with you enough to know if you're REALLY that dangerous or not.
I'm aware I haven't responded to your case against me - I'll get around to it. Please keep that in mind regardless of what you perceive my alignment to be...sound observation is sound.

Even before he started calling me scum. He's not playing like the Syllo I'm used to. Townie Syllo makes cases. This Syllo is just oozing bs. Kita is not anywhere as active as I'm used to seeing him. That bugs me too. Syllo suggested town made saves or vets were hit. I'm assuming scum have more than 1 KP. I have never seen a game here where scum failed on night one. I think the scum team is mostly inactive. That would be BC, RoL and Kita right off the top of my head.
Well, kita at least promised reasoning later (we'll see).
Syllo was one of the only people besides myself actually trying to get BC lynched yesterday...are you of the opinion that one veteran scum is bussing another veteran scum? Do you think that's viable?
