*takes aim*
READ THIS POST CAREFULLY
.
I won't even bother blowing out how bad your "strategy" here is to start off with -- you are not even considering context, explanations for votes, competing wagons, or possible motives for votes. Turning reality into numbers and then trying to fit the numbers back onto reality is a project that is doomed to failure.
I think giving me "town points" for having been on the Greasy Spot wagon is pretty dumb to begin with. As for the other "scum points":

Small wagon on a townie. There may be one scum there. Fifty scum points each.
Things you conveniently miss: This wagon also had wolfcrier (aka
you
) on it in
Post #527, as well as CKD-scum in
Post #595. Captain Bandwagon also voted later.
This was a wagon on the beginning of Day Two -- I listed the three people I essentially wanted to participate more {RossWilliam, wolfcrier, Monkey}, and was willing to vote them all to start the day. I started with voting wolfcrier, and then switched to RossWilliam after he
questioned my list (Post 494) and then made a
made a wishy=washy post (Post 496).
I was more than willing to vote all three of them if it could get me a reaction. What's more, I was the
first person on
this "wagon" (Post 497) (so it was not a "wagon" until others agreed with me), and I was the
first person off
this wagon (Post 551) because I was satisfied to his responses to my questions, but I was not satisfied with wolfcrier. If you check the time between the wagon starting and me getting off, RossWilliam made his most substantive posts of the game -- the wagon effectively got him to participate and give opinions, which was the purpose of the wagon. This is already a superb example of why your "analysis" of votes is so useless.
Especially when you tailor it to not mention the fact that both yourself and CKD-scum were also on this wagon.

Last remaining player, no known scum. A hundred points to PJ.
Say, nice trick. JDGA/wolfcrier is
you
, and I think you are
scum
. I love how 100 of my "scum points" stems directly from me having voted for you. But to make things even better, this wagon once again completely ignores context. When I unvoted RW, I
voted wolfcrier again (I was the first to vote wolfcrier in the morning, by the way -- it was only a "bandwagon" because
people voted with me
).
How strange that I
do not remove my vote
for a very long while. Why? Because wolfcrier never satisfied me with his responses to my posts. I only unvoted JDGA because I was concerned with the players on the wagon, and I was going to be leaving for a while and knew my vote was not strictly necessary to lynch anybody.
Now, let's go over this wagon vote-by-vote, because it is quite enthralling.
-->
a.
I start things off with my list and a wolfcrier vote in
Post 492. (1 vote)
-->
b.
hasdgfas follows in
Post 493. (2 votes)
NOTE
: CKD then comes to save the day by weakly
defending wolfcrier in post 495.
-->
c.)
I unvote wolfcrier in
Post #497 so I can pressure RW. (1 vote again)
-->
d.)
After I am finished questioning RW, I go back to my wolfcrier vote in
Post #551 (2 votes). Also note that during this time, Monkey was finally giving more opinions; the list of people I wanted to participate more was doing precisely that – except for wolfcrier.
NOTE
: CKD somehow completely misses the wolfcrier discussion, but gets "caught up" in the RW and alko cases. Instead of commenting on wolfcrier, he
asks who wolfcrier thinks the Jester is. Gosh – CKD later kept calling Beep! Beep! the jester (so he would never have to actually vote for her). Anybody seeing a pattern? CKD actively avoids commenting on wolfcrier until he can call him (Beep! Beep!) the jester.
-->
e.
Tally votes wolfcrier after reading the game in
Post #702. Some bandwagon so far – it's taken about six or seven pages to hit three votes. (3 votes)
-->
f.
Monkey votes in
Post #709. (4 votes)
NOTE:
wolfcrier drops off the face of the planet, and then needs replacement. JDGA replaces wolfcrier in
Post #757. During this time, the Farside22-wagon (getting up to 7 votes) occurs.
The scum were voting for Farside22 while townspeople were voting for wolfcrier
. Beep! Beep! ever-so-conveniently does not mention that these wagons occurred simultaneously.
-->
g.
Talitha unvotes due to replacement in
Post #786. (3 votes)
-->
h.
RossWilliam votes JDGA in
Post #845. (4 votes)
-->
i.
The final JDGA vote comes from Farside22 in
Post #850. (5 votes)
Basically, the wolfcrier/JDGA wagon was incredibly slow. It was always competing against other wagons – to be specific, the failed D2 Farside22 wagon (which had CKD) and the Monkey wagon (which had MoS-scum on it). On Day Three, the Farside22 wagon had both CKD-scum and MoS-scum on it. Hunh.
The D2 Farside22 wagon and the Monkey wagon were both wagons which effectively neutralized the wolfcrier/JDGA wagon. If anything, these were
distraction wagons
away from the real prize. The fact that townspeople were on wolfcrier/JDGA while the scum were on Monkey and Farside22 is not surprising.
What's more, your analysis can just as easily be flipped against you. From
my
perspective,
every single person on the wolfcrier/JDGA wagon was town
, whereas the
other wagons had scum on them
.
Hmmm.

Offwagon... one scum already. My gut tells me more scum off the wagon than on the wagon. Deadline and all.
Twenty points to all four players.
Now how stupid is this? The people responsible for
lynching
Monkay get "town points", but those who were not voting him – but instead might have been actually onto scum – get "scum points". This is so terrible it hurts instead.

No known scum hiding off wagon? Fifty scumpoints each.
Gosh, I get
more
scum-points for not lynching the Doctor
who I was arguing the whole day for people to consider being a Quack
.

Summary
Basically, the reason I have my "scum points" comes down to this:
-->
A.)
I did not help lynch either Monkey or Farside22.
-->
B.)
I voted for Beep! Beep!
-->
C.)
I voted for RossWilliam at the beginning of Day Two (when he is under no threat of being lynched) for information.
I guess you're right – I really
must
be scummy after all that! The numbers say so! Who cares if you don't even included everybody who was on the wagons? Whee!
