It's not a senseible comment, but it doesn't surprise me coming from him, doesn't change my opinion of him.

I don't believe the town is forgetting about him. But if we only seriously look at him today then we don't get much info. I've stated that I think he's town but if his actions later today or another day say otherwise I'm going to call him on it.
Sorry for the lack of posting inthe past couple of days. I'm going to re-read. Should have something posted tomorrow.

Please enlighten us as to who does then. Start scum hunting. The failure to do such will convince me you rank up there with the worst townies on the site or you are scum. You have moved into my 2nd suspect spot.

I find most of you particularly suspicious though, due to the attempts to lynch me.
I'll be gone this weeked, so please don't lynch me for disapearing!
This is not scumhunting. It is OMGUSing everyone who has expressed suspicion of you. It doesn't help anyone.

You know those times when you wish you could think of something really funny or interesting to say, but just can't?... Yep, this is one of those times.
It's still a legitimate town thought process when you feel the votes against you are complete shit (sometimes are...). I've been in the situation before.

Um...not exactly. If by, "complete shit," you mean, "lack quality reasoning," then yes, an unreasoned vote is often a good reason to suspect someone. However, that is not OMGUS. OMGUS is treating the situation differently because the vote is against you.
Xtoxm - chainsawing a little, there?
Mr. Adams - please, for the love of God, say something in your defence other than OMGUSing half the town AND failing to put any reason behind your OMGUS vote on me other than "I don't like him".
It's pathetic, do you not want to play or something?

Your last two posts have been in defence of Adams, before even he defended the posts you referred to.
I think he's town, and i'm not going to just let someone I think is town get lynched.

But the votes directed his way weren't complete shit.

I'd contest that. Pretty much any lynch on...What was it, page 5...The votes are probably complete shit.

A lynch on page 5 is terrible. A vote, certainly not. Especially since the target of that vote made 24 posts by the end of page 5. To borrow your terms, his shitty voting and reasoning was why I voted. My case really wasn't OMGUS.

This game seems to be leaning towards a game where the most active poster will get voted. It is a good strategy if you are trying to promote scum lurking.
I am not sold on the case against Xtoxm. The only way his defense of Adams would be 'chainsawing' is if they were partners. If that is the case, it makes little sense to unvote off the bigger wagon onto Xtoxm. Now scum sometimes defend town and I could see a case made there, but even that is a null tell since town defend town just as often and sometimes more often. Town even defend scum more than scum defends scum.
My current read on Xtoxm is a townie trying to be active in a lagging game. If the only topic moving is a discussion about Mr?Adams, the only way to stay active is to pick a side or try to generate some conversation about somebody else.
I just don't think a game that is lagging scum would be the ones pushing the pace and posting as frequently. Maybe a newbie would as anxious scum. I think scum would be on the other end of the spectrum - either not active at all (Y.C., TSN) or popping in to say they have been busy (fark, chaz). If scum chose to be active, I would suspect they would have moderate activity and then be waiting to jump on a hyperactive player if they said anything slightly off.
My hunch is we would have 1-2 scum in the 4 I listed above and the rest are playing the scavenger waiting for a some sort of town slip. Yes this is a very wide range, but the main point is I don't think scum would be posting more than they need to be right now. Could the top posters be scum? Sure they could, but I think they are less likely to be scum than others at this stage of the game.

Possibly illogical, but illogical is not a scum tell in my book (unless the intent is clear and the intent is scummy). You can't assume every player knows how to make a logical argument as a skilled debater. This is usually not the case. Most people don't know when their arguments are illogical, or they wouldn't make them.
Since right now I think you are town based on your miller claim (unless future actions convince me otherwise), I don't take issue with your vote on xtoxm. I just think the reasoning is a little off. Doesn't mean he can't be scum, but my current read is town.

A lynch would have been, but the votes weren't. Do you take particular exception to any of the votes, or do you just disapprove of them in general?
