I'm content to let him live for today and see what he does later.

Grack's continued disappearance despite promising some sort of reads post is highly concerning. I think the dude is scum who knows he's caught.
I am not voting for prp, but I want to talk to Hapa about that. Why is cora one of the worst offenders?
I actually think it's pretty damn likely that he's town. He's....defiant, for lack of a better word. You said earlier that you thought he was scum because he was tunneling rayne even though most of the thread disagreed with him (how does that make someone scum, btw?). But, look at his attitude. He's constantly aggressive about it. He doesn't apologize, or back down from having a read that people disagree with. (Well, okay, he does back down eventually, but for what I would consider decent reasoning). He stands up to marv and calls him out on his bullshit wishy-washy stances.
Pretty prototypical townie mindset, imo. So please, explain.

So why did you specifically refer to Nomination?
Literally nothing about his play in Nomination is similar to his play in this game (unless you want to say that in his first post he gave some general advice). He's active/engaging in the thread. Calling people out and questioning motives, and giving some personal insight into a lot of different things.

EBWOP: I mean, he was all of those things in Nomination. None of them here.

Like, I just posted one of his fucking reads. Holy balls. Where? Cause I don't see one either.
Talking about Acro? He doesn't give any reasoning. Hell, he doesn't even say he thinks Acro is scum. He asks if anyone thinks Acro is town. That's not a read, that's fishing for thread sentiment.

I voted Grackaroni for all the reasons presented by Palmar, Hapahauli and Keirathi. I liked them all. He's also the best lynch.
I haven't been around much so far which is the explanation for why I didn't post a lot. Just got up to date on the thread. My Grackaroni vote was around page 16 and nothing has changed my mind since that. Maybe you can call this a read. I would disagree, it's just a sheep and he doesn't give any opinions about Grack of his own. But, whatevs, moving on.

About the bolded part, you could almost call that a read. Except, its not. It's just an observation. Doesn't say anything about what he thinks about Grack's alignment (and remember, he was already sheeping the vote onto Grack, and ostensibly thinks that Grack is scum).
The parts about Acro: well, it does seem that he is implying that he doesn't think Acro is town. But why? What reasoning? A half-ass read at best.
And...that's it.
Now, lets look at Nomination that you're so fond of referencing:

Oatsmaster, Mocsta: Stop focusing on each other. Just by your activity neither of you are up for lynch right now so stop focusing on each other. Whatever useful you could be doing by arguing with each other you've done it by now so quit it and stop messing the thread up. It is bloating the thread and for hardly any reason. Take a deep breath and a step back and focus on something else, if you want better reads on each other then just reread your discussion, I'm sure there's something you missed.
Alright going to read page 15 now.
But seriously, quit it and do something else.
Two activity based town reads, and some advice.
On February 06 2013 22:43 prplhz wrote: No, I'm implying that if we were to discuss who to lynch right now it would be silly to consider the two most active people unless we have a pretty decent case and we don't. I'm not going to lynch Oatsmaster right now because he has a great deal of activity and it's going to be harder for him to keep up appearances as scum later on like that. I also think he has showed a good amount of interest in this game, by fervor as well as insight, so townie points for him.
Expanding more on his townie read.

No one else really reacted strongly to Djodref's silly random vote because everybody knew what it was: some sort of scheme to draw out scum. Pretty rediculous but at least he doing something. jaybrundage also acknowledges this himself here but he still uses it as a reason to vote Djodref. This gives him a place to put his vote and even though he's since gradually recanted this (like here), he hasn't unvoted. It seems like he is trying to keep the Djodref door open while not pushing it and not wanting to actually push anything else. It doesn't seem like a townie thinking "fuck yea, i nailed this cracker and it's so obvious! now i just have to get everybody else to listen to me!", more like "cool, i can just put my vote on him and then chill". How do you guys feel about jaybrundage?
A solid scum read, with logic and quotes to back it up. Hell, this one singular post has more thought and effort put into it than anything prplhz has posted thus far in this game.

Another town read.
Anyways, need I go on? There's a huge difference in the amount of actual scumhunting/analysis/opinions from prplhz in this game compared to Nomination. I don't see where your big town read is coming from at all.

And, your point completely falls apart when you look at other scum prplhz games. Hell, look at http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=365925 and compare it with LIX. They don't look alike.

why would i "delurk" when you call me out but not when sandroba called me out? that makes no sense, sandroba is SANDROBA and you're just some german with a low post count. it makes a lot more sense that i was just around at that particular time especially considering that it was around 6pm iirc.
no i'm not worrying too much about who to lynch right now. i read gonzaw and he seems like a perfectly good mayor candidate to me and the scum reads i have are pretty i'm not sure about them at all. that's why i asked who he wanted to lynch, so i could read up on that person. i don't see the JX thing that sandro sees.
i don't really care for you irrationally going for me because i seem to recall that you do that i most of your games. i think it's really weird that you're not spamming more though but maybe that's because you were smurfing and you didn't want to play like you usually do, you picked it up after you revealed yourself. Looks like a fucking scum meta to me! [/url] Are you fucking serious?
For one: that "policy lynch" you talked about WAS BEFORE THE FUCKING GAME EVEN STARTED.
So basically your town read on prplhz boils down to "defends himself when scum".
Quit misusing meta. I'm done with this conversation.

This post also supports my case. Keirathi makes another post attacking me, and yet has still said nothing at all about prplhz. "Another" post attacking you?
I've made 2 posts since I got to the computer this morning. One about Palmar that was on the last page before I started reading the 6 pages of posts since I went to sleep last night. And now this one about you. So, please, expand.
As far as prplhz, I just hadn't gotten around to writing up a post yet. I still contend that early game prplhz was everything that I know differentiates scum prplhz from town prplhz (lack of interest in the thread, little to no actual scumhunting/analysis, lack of care for town). Since he has come back, he is the completely opposite. I'm more than fine with his current play.

Because your first priority as a townie should be finding out / expanding upon your read. I might even accept that the first time you came into the thread to have a jab at Palmar you didn't read the thread yet and went to have lunch or whatever. However your 2nd post, after you did all this, was having a jab at me. You didn't mention prplhz at all there, and you should have. You did respond to Hapa about sinani for some reason though. Fine, you have a fair point.
I'm not sure who I want to lynch now. I intended to write up my post explaining why I was unvoting prplhz, and transition in the same post into who I DID want to lynch.

If it's between Kei and Sinani I'll go with the former
Keirathi laughed off my suspicions of him early game and I thought that was related to a conversation we had pre-game where he told me to make silly cases. His response was "I've created a monster" and to me it looked like he was simply laughing it off in an offhandedly way -- as if my suspicions were just completely unfounded and terribly reasoned -- which later convinced me to drop it when nobody really commented on it.
As for Sinani I'm okay with lynching him based on participation level this game, the meta stuff doesn't fascinate me too terribly much in his case when I can barely remember he's even playing the game.
Again, I want to lynch Keirathi over Sinani. I was laughing it off. Because your points WERE completely unfounded and terribly reasoned.
Your "case" boiled down to "Keir isn't playing day 1 like he did in Hydra". I literally had a total of like 15 posts in day 1 in Hydra; half of those were spam, and half were getting into an argument with mocsta defending marv/myself.

Kinda, by objecting to a non-relevant part of my reasoning. Where is the post with your reads that you were promising? I wasn't objecting to the non-relevant part of your reasoning. I was objecting to the only part of your reasoning that was actually coherent. "What is with your obsession with reasons?" and "You have a 3 page filter." are not valid reasons at all, and not worth responding to.
Anyways, I'm really not feeling the sinani push.
My preferred lynch today would be Smurf. The way he was just so absolutely sure that prplhz was town when Hapa and I were both arguing the opposite really feels like he knows alignments already.
If Smurf isn't happening, I am really unsure past that. I would consolidate to Nisani to secure a lynch, but i don't feel super strong about it either. He could be scum, but mostly he's just a lurker to me.
Marv is being useless, Palmar has like 10 scumreads but isn't pushing any of them or doing anything.
S&B: Where the hell is he in all this? I could get behind lynching him too.
