No summary. Your tears are delicious.

Pay attention to the game you are playing.
Attacking something you don't understand? Not something I'd expect from a philosopher.
I'll try to make this easier to understand. When you do something scummy, you don't get to absolve yourself of responsibility by saying "I meant to do that."
See, here's where we disagree. I can't recall a time where I've been both angry and bored at the same time; anger puts adrenaline through the body and thus makes you... not bored. Also, I've never been bored when I've believed I've pegged scum. But then again, this really isn't a point I can convince you of, it seems. But then again, these are my experiences and feelings being transferred onto EF...
I can recall such a time. Categorical statement refuted!
Actually, I looked back and saw how petty the argument was getting, so I dropped it. The case is looking good to my eyes, but there's no one here to defend it.
All right, I guess I have to take your word for it, because I can't honestly know whether you think you have a good case or not. At least in public, you admitted you weren't sure what you had against him.

Those differences are accidental rather than essential.
Perhaps. But isn't it a sign that I have hope for him that I expressed a hope he'd learned the lesson?
See, this is the problem. I think you reacted out of pride for mafiascum and you spoke rather rashly. So, sure, when you retreated, I think it was a good-faith retreat, but EF was also right to call you out on an anti-town sentiment.
I'm happy with the way that issue's been resolved, though.
You know what? That's a really good point. Havingfitz?
Thank you.
It's especially relevant we discuss Cojin since he's apparently the most popular bandwagon.
... Ouch..!
I just don't think chattiness and scum-alignment work well together.
If a tree falls in a forest and there's no one there to hear it..?
It would be, because all the roles would be passing to predecessors. Lawls's replacement will be an extension of Lawls's slot.

Lurking is scummy.
Lawls was lurking.
Therefore, etc.
His being replaced does nothing to change that argument, man.
He's not being replaced now (I guess? Who knows...), so this is sort of moot...but you were still wrong when you wrote that.
RayFrost and BaB have also been lurking lately, but they've barely been the subject of any attention whatsoever that hasn't been supplied by me.
Yeah, but they had lots of content earlier, so they have something of a paper trail for us. And, man, I've called upon them to post more, too.
And saying that Cojin and Lawls have been the subject of most of the attention is... laughable.
Clearly
it is.
Cojin's attention consists of someone who hasn't posted about him since last week and a giant wall-battle that should've been dropped a long time ago.
You really do hate when I discuss things in this game, don't you? As Cojin's been one of the more popular bandwagons (only recently the most popular, to be fair), "dropping" the discussion of havingfitz's case against him is the last thing we should do.
The attention on Lawls consists of himself, a lurker, and someone whose walls generally have nothing to do with him anyways.
You haven't been reading my posts.
The town is spread so thin because of walls of texts and people generally ignoring any case that isn't there own that the people under the most attention are under no pressure whatsoever.
The town needs to get the sand out of its vagina, then.
I don't hate when you post; you present some good points when you're more worried about who's scum as opposed to who's right.
I don't know if you know this, but scum generally try to drum up fallacious cases. The premise "The guy I am trying to lynch is scum" is not true when scum try to railroad a townie, so they're deprived of at least that advantage. They sometimes have to make up for that by saying false things. Investigating why people say false things is a useful tactic.
Look at havingfitz vs. Cojin. You think there might be a scummy motive for him to put his fingers in his ears and dismiss Cojin's points as "gibberish"? If arguing with havingfitz helps me determine that, I'm gonna continue to do it.
You just need to cut out some of the useless stuff and stop nitpicking over every little point; focus on major aspects of the case and present them to the public; note down tiny scumtells and keep them to thyself.
I have no idea what possible pro-town reason there could be to keep scumtells to oneself.
In fact, Panacea, didn't you say something about having one's case survive one's death? That that was part of the point of posting?

I strongly suspect there's more at work with the criticism of me than "Man, that's hard to read, jerky mcjerkface." So, as much as I'd like to make stylistic changes to accommodate comprehension, I'm concerned that I will leave out points that might be able to nail people later.
I am not going to one-up you now because this post is a lot shorter ;_;
If Cojin wants to claim mafia, I'll vote him. I don't see any other scenario where I will do it today. And, wow, Cojin is sort of right that this little "Replace me, wait don't" episode with Lawls has defused the Lawlswagon. Of course, I maintain he's no mastermind...
Absent some really convincing new revelations, the only lynch that'd get me off Lawls would be Nacho's. Any takers for that?
