    Eh, I'd go over what he said and to whom one more time anyway just to be sure, but by this point I'm pretty much taking whatever he says with a grain of salt anyway, even though I think he's relatively townish. No offense, Eidolonic, you're awesome and all that, but it's like Aekiel says. Seeing you go after me yet again is, like I said earlier, nostalgic - even though I did make a concerted effort to be more aggressive this game based solely on your reads in the last one.

    That said, I'd look more carefully at people like Sesc or Aekiel, who Eid has been pushing for. I'd also reread all his posts much more carefully, because tbh he has been giving off quite the town vibe and I'd be really disappointed in my scumreading abilities if he turned out to be a witch.

    Aggression is good. That's not the reason you are on the scummy side of null for me. I encourage posting, and saying things definitively rather than trying to dance around the subject.

    The fact that I disagree with almost every read you've posted is troubling, though! Not every, of course, but - yeah.

    In a Eid Witch world we'd be fucked since he's got something like 1/8 of the thread posts, and most of the game has strong town reads on him.

    ---------- Post automerged at 06:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:57 AM ----------

    Ugh, DLP ate my followup post.

    tl;dr - The Castiel lynch (not to mention the attempted Ash lynch) would look ohmygodawful in a Eid Witch world.

    In that scenario, I'd think it more likely StrikerLee is a witch since Eid has been going away from him with lynch votes, and more likely that Moridin, Sesc, and Aekiel were all legit.

    I'd also be a little less suspicious of Menace. On that note, Lynch: Menace. Always with the promising to post more, never with the posting more.

    I have to agree with Aurion. People promise to post more then never show up. The 1st time I even say a post from Menace was before the Castiel lynch and it was directed towards me, then Kalas posted this long read wall after the lynch happened and most of what he had to say was pointless. So very little content from that makes me think he was just throwing out random crap to get a post in. I want to see some more content from both of them. Also back on the Lutris subject. Despite the votes against him and all the remarkes he still has yet to make an appearance to defend himself. Free lynch? Maybe or should we be looking more into Sesc (for his no-lynch vote) and possibly Sirion who I believe is either a JW or Coven based on the read I have on him so far.

    For now:

    Lynch Vote: Lutris

    Will probably change depending on whats posted throughout the day.

    PS(At the hospital still, will be here a few days. Thank god for free wi-fi and hot nurses.)

    So of all the possible lynch targets I am voting right know for CheddarTrek.
    After I and then several others mentioned that she tries to be really neutral, she acknowledged this and after that said that she would have to need some time to make the post about who she suspects. Well that was a good time ago. So until she convinces me otherwise
    Lynch: CheddarTrek

    I am willing to vote for both Menace or Lutris,as they are on my scum radar, if it comes down to it and nothing changes my perception about them.

    Ok, here goes. Part of the reason it took me a while to post was that I was on my Tablet for a while but also... well, going back through and trying to make a proper post using evidence from a thread this long is sort of ... not that much fun.

    Sirion I think is scum. There, I said it. Also I've been watching National Geographic all day (100 Year Anniversary of the Titanic Sinking), and as I was typing scum they used the word "rusticle" and it made me giggle, because scum, lol.

    Anyway, he made some posts at the start that didn't contain much of anything but they got a lot of attention none-the-less. He picked Lungs at random to pressure, but I wondered if he did that to give a scum partner a chance to defend himself before any real suspicion built. Because Lungs I find really hard to read. I alternate between getting scum reads and town reads on him for a while, then it just sort of... I have no idea, and that makes me nervous.

    Sirion has also been pushing Lutris, and I can't help but wonder if he's doing that as a "safe" option to avoid voting for an obvious town or one of his buddies. Granted Lutris does need to get his ass in here and post, but it's already been demonstrated that threatening to lynch Lutris isn't going to get him in here and participating.

    Is any of that a really, really good reason to think he's scum? No, but I still think he's one of the best options. No one with any sense is going to give us a "really, really good" reason.

    Speaking of Lutris -- do we know for sure if he's been lurking/reading and deliberately not posting, or if he's just been busy and not really keeping up with things? One is a tactic, the other is not.

    jwlk made me a bit suspicious with his voting on Mishie when he did. Sirion was hanging around and said that he was hanging around to cast the last required vote, but jwlk jumped in and jumped the gun. On one hand, that could be to make sure that Sirion wasn't screwing with us and intended to let Mishie off. On the other hand maybe he was Mishie's buddy and took advantage of a "sure thing" to make himself look more town. No idea which of the two it is/was, or hell, maybe he was just ready for Night.

    KaiDASH I'm suspicious of too. Not sure if I'm suspicious of him as a Witch or just a junior though. Damned if I even know why -- am I supposed to be keeping a detailed account of why I think people are scum vs. town? I make down a town or scum feel as soon as I get it, that way if I get another feel later I can see if I've already marked someone as such.

    I've been extremely suspicious of Strikerlee1, but when I went back to see why I realized it was mostly two things: (1) He was acting like a jackass and posting stupidly, and (2) there was a bandwagon on him. Granted his posting did change, and it could have been scum coaching him, but I can't believe it went on for that long if that was the case. I'm still happy to get rid of him, but I don't view him as as "dangerous" as someone managing to hide really well.

    Kalas is suspicious of me because of that, but I'm not sure I get it. I'm not saying he's not scum dude, just that in hindsight I think there's just as a good a chance that he's been derping around and there are better targets. I won't cry when we get rid of him though.

    Lynch Vote: Sirion

    Feel free to jump in along with me or not. I hope we'll have the votes by the end of the day but if we don't I'll help out to lynch whoever so that we can at least get a majority -- lynching is pro-town.

    I know this post probably isn't quite what you wanted Eido, but damn, this is a lot of thread to read through again. If I need to do better let me know.

    I'm not gonna try to defend myself anymore in that regard, as I am posting more, but if that's what your main concern with me is, I'd like to point you to someone who hasn't posted since the day started: Lungs.

    He literally hasn't posted a single thing, which is suspicious in its own right, but after the events of last night it's taken to a whole new level of scummy. Also, even though at this point it's a given, Lutris hasn't posted in days. I even asked him to post last night and nothing.

    Also, this is just silly. I posted several times before accusing you of anything. Check your facts, mang.

    You post so little it was hard to remember your last post before then.

    So its looking interesting. Less then 1 day and we are still far from any sort of lynch. Can people stop lurking around and start posting some stuff. At this rate we wont be lynching anyone at all unless everyone gets on last minute which to me would be extremely suspicious.

    Going to keep my lynch vote on Lutris for right now until more people start posting.

    I've voted for Lutris in the interests of getting a lynch today, and because I feel less confidant that any of my preferred targets (guljons or CheddarTrek) would be picked. I'm also back to work as of tomorrow, so I'll not be able to post as often.

    First of all... I pressured Lungs day 1, jokingly. I mean come on. Yeah, I wanted him to post (I wanted everyone to post) but I was actually continuing a bit of an inside joke. It was part of Kai's whole "everyone who runs for town should try to run a bandwagon on someone" which is fairly unreasonable day 1, imo.

    I dunno why the "early connections" are still a thing. Moridin explained his meta read on me, and I blatantly showed my desire to lynch Klackerz because I thought he was suspicious.


    Lutris was higher on my list than the other non-posters not only because of his lurkiness, but because of WHAT he posted when he did actually post. It was very bandwagony middle-of-the-road stuff. No new reads or finger points or anything, and looking back at it it was super suspicious.

    I honestly tried to find people who were MORE likely to be scum, since that's not much to go on, but the only person with anything other than that was StrikerLee. I don't like Striker because again, editing, and a few other things, but I'm willing to admit it might be overkill to straight lynch him since he might have just derped as town.

    I don't see any better targets, and I haven't really seen a good argument for anyone else. Yes, Menace has been lurky too. But his posts, where they were, seemed townier to me and he's at least made an effort today to post more. Even though there wasn't much to respond to.

    I really don't comfortable with the people who are voting for Lutris. It's full of people I'm suspicious of.

    I'm going to keep my vote on Menace for now, and I really don't know what to do to get the non-posters to post. :< I will be around to talk and change my vote if needed, but I feel like you guys should vote for Menace. I'm not saying that I'm not suspicious of Lutris, but his bandwagon is full of people I'm suspicious of, so.....

    Just posting to let you know that I'm back - as I said a few days ago, I was on a field trip with no computer or cell service from Thursday until tonight. I'm reading through the thread right now, but I'm not sure if I'll get anything of substance posted tonight since I'm completely wiped out. I'll definitely have something before the day ends though.

    I'll just second Sirion's read on Lutris. He hasn't posted for a week, and that makes him a viable target. But I'm not really excited about him. I don't remember him making any huge derps like Klackerz, Strikerlee, or Ash. So I can't really get behind a lynch vote for him at this time. Ash seems to be the priest and Strikerlee just seems to be more like a derpy player right now than scum. I'd rather vote for someone that I have a strong read on. Well, I'll look at more players this evening.

    I meant expand on everyone. That's kind of the point of a read wall- you get all of your thoughts on everyone out there. At this point we could use all the info we can get, though obviously reads on confirmed town and such aren't necessary. Just expand, dude.

    So wait, let me get this straight. Rather than vote for one of the people who've lynch voted Lutris, who you say you're suspicious of, you'd rather keep your vote on me. And even though this:

    Is the only read you have on me as of yet, you're still urging people to lynch me over Lutris or any of the other suspects.

    ... k.

    Moving on from that brilliant bit of reasoning, I'd like to address StrikerLee.

    You're rapidly climbing back up my scum list, bro. I just went over the last couple pages, and your posts specifically, and noticed a trend. You're not doing anything.

    Your last several posts have all been the same old thing. You say you'd rather not post a read wall and just agree with so and so's reasoning. You urge people to start posting while at the same time adding nothing new for them to discuss. You vote for the most popular lynch target.

    You've literally been playing it the safest you can since you were called out on your bout of derpery by posting lots of empty shit echoing what everyone else knows and has already said. You read so scummy it hurts.

    That said, as time is ticking and I don't know if I'll be around for the end of day phase, I'm gonna go for the guy most likely to be lynched on my scum list. I hope to god Court seriously considers you tonight though.

    Lynch Vote: Lutris

    Just checking in before I go to sleep. Lutris has the most votes as it stands. I am not going to make a decision on whether or not to move my vote until I get up int he morning. So I'll decide then unless someone gets hammered before then (around 6-7 hours left).

    I am certainly not opposed to lynching Lutris, the fact that he hasn't even come in to defend himself that I recall is just... yeah (if he did, please point it out, I am damn tired right now).

    I do feel like if Lutris was scum, he would have posted by now.
