Regarding Skanjab and the last-second vote-swap.

The closeness of the lynch points more to CRay scum. It is pointless as scum to try last minute switch the lynch off of one townie and onto another.
This is his last contribution before the lynch; and suggests no premeditation towards Stutters.

On the other hand, scum KP at 3 members is already 1KP for this cycle. Its a very risky move to hammer a townie (regardless of secret vote) for the benefit of 1 town lynch. I don't think the risk is worth the reward.

As scum, I have hammered a townie last-second before, but made sure I had a story backed up over the past 3-4hrs to why. i.e. the concept was premeditated and I could back it up.
Skanjab doesn't have this.

As we know with claims: typically the awkwardly revealed claims are usually from town, and the big spiels that are perfectly crafted are usually fake-claims.

Lastly, I have had a townread on Skanjab since his Yamato case, Day1. This has nothing to do with that he made a case on Yamato. It had to do with his approach.

I asked him int he QT his thoughts on Yamato. He made a semi-case of points that suggested a scum mindset. I said I agreed. When Skanjab decided to unveil his case in the thread; he actually fleshed it out significantly more than the QT. That effort is something I *FIRMLY* associate with town.
i.e. he had the confidence that his read was right due to QT talk, and then put more effort into the case. I find it hard-pressed to believe scum would have a mindset capable to do this.

Skanjab is town.

(1)Clearly, Yamato attacked Koshi via clear discredit attempt.

(2) So at least you can admit he was not overly trying to look townie.
Where is this town credit coming from then?

Did he really try to progress the game? His attitude between Champions game/this one are MILES apart.
His attitude between Noir/this game are MILES apart.

Do you disagree?

Wait what?
Assuming you are town and Skan is scum;

If i was in Skan's position and someone told me my case on a townie had merit i would totally expand it and post it in thread.

Did Skan push the lynch on D1? Did he push it on D2?

-rayn

U get your point but the same can be asked why I did not vote with the case if I agreed.
I had my reasons.

But ok, maybe you would expand. I just know I wouldn't. If the case was already convincing, why try harder?

Probably because the Champions game. duh..

this doesn't answer my query.

Look. Maybe yam is town. But if he is, you are not doing a good job of abating my read

Btw Mocsta, to your second point. Koshi's post on Skanjab1s was really bad. I understand that if it was made by me yamato would insta-lynch me. That's only fair and imo pointed towards him being town.

Yeah but me and a couple others also wanted confirmation to whether koshi made that case.

The difference with yam is that he followed through with a discredit. Why would town need to say that? How does it help promote a positive sentiment? Further he doesn't even state why it's scummy enough to warrant a discrrdit.

That's what yamato does.:p
To me that looks more townie than scummy.

Maybe. I know he likes to call people bad all the time. Perhaps this fits in this category.

Process of elimination is then tending towards

Maybe holyflare

If I am in a poor spot time wise. I make the decision to contribute because I choose too.

This is indicative of you 8hrs ago.

Hence, the circumstances have no bearing on why you were underwhelming. You choose to post.
And the content was lacking at a pivotal time.

I just reread slytherin qt.

After lastargument died. Skanjab instantly wondered if anyone thought stutters could be scum even though he was masoned to marv.

Bh instantly replies. Role != allignment

Point is. Did skanjab do anything to flesh out this read?
I'm on phone so it's hard to check filter.

What does crab have to do with anything.

That's toad et.

This is bullshit now. U immediately suspected stutters of being scum regardless of being masoned with lastargument. And now self admit to doing nothing to develop this read. Then u end up voting him....

Ok. Sno agreed that stutters isn't instant town, but he's done more in the thread to develop his read than u.

? I never claimed to not read the vote count. They were periodically posted throughout the thread, I literally could not have missed them.


What I'm saying is that your so-called "story" can't be true because anyone who really cared about the lynch would just click on the votecount thread and see the most recent votecount when they realized the deadline was approaching. Did you REALLY not realize the deadline was at hand? Is that the story you're going with?


Okay, what the fuck are you even saying?

(1) I knew what the votecount was
(2) I never said I didn't know the votecount
(3) I knew when the deadline was
(4) I just said in the past post that I knew when the deadline was.
(5) Can you please read the damn thread?
(6) Thank you.


You said you know when the deadline was, but you also posted a vote after the deadline. How does that compute? Clearly there is a lie. Either

1) you didn't know when the deadline was
or
2) your vote was not cast in good faith

which is it?

This is a very scummy bifurcation.

What perturbs me greater is that you are commenting on live matters; where are your scum reads based on the past 140 pages?

boy if only I posted some big awesome analysis on yamato's filter with meta and stuff

BOY IF ONLY I DID THAT

I GUESS I DIDNT SO YEAH YOUR POINT MAKES PERFECT SENSE
1 out of 3 scummers, right? Lol

So the theory you are proposing is that:
(1) Skanjab has the power to secret vote and in the process of trying to PM the hosts in teh last minute, performed his vote swap too late?
Cos this is stupid. .. its not like the hosts update the vote counts every 2min.. and even so, the secret vote popped up in the vote count 5 MINUTES BEFORE DEADLINE

(2) Skanjab and Yamato are of the same alignment....
From your "awesome meta read on yamato" do you think yamato treated Skanjab like they are the same alignment?

Yo, I'm back, gonna be on for a bit. I've caught up with the last few pages about the Skan discussion.

I don't think this discussion regarding Skan and myself being mafia team is quite productive IMO, but that's because I know that I'm town. Given the circumstances, I think it's obvious that I'm gonna flip in the morning from vig. My flip would be the most advantageous for town given that I'm gonna be a semi-lurker, and also it gives good information regarding Skan. Since I'm town, what Skan did was just move his vote from one town to another, drawing suspicion. I don't think this is a mafia thing to do really. Personally if I was mafia, I would not vote switch on two town last minute, unless the winning votes was low like 3-3. With low vote numbers, it may be advantageous for mafia to not be responsible for a mislynch. This is not the case since there were plenty of voters on both stutters and myself.

Bingo.

and BH just gave himself away forgetting this.

This has become super spammy.

I guess pandain was right.
